Whydosomefarmersrefusetomovetoemergencyshelters?
[解析]新闻中描写了火山附近居民在灾害发生之前的不同行为,有些人已经撤离到紧急的安全棚内,有些人等候政府的卡车把他们载到安全的地方,但也有一些人考虑到灾后的生计问题而拒绝离开,希望政府能在此之前给他们一些经济支持(untilthegovernmentoffersfinancialhelp)。
所以选C项。
A项“等待卡车将他们送到安全的地方”是火山爆发前另外一些人的做法。
B项“他们想一睹火山爆发的奇观”和D项“他们认为火山灰有利于作物生长”均没有在新闻中提到。
A.Manypeoplewanttotakecropsandanimalswiththem.
B.Governmentwillofferfinancialhelptothevillagers.
C.Merapiwillreachitspeakverysoon.
D.Therehasbeenonevillagebeingburiedbyash.√
解析:
[听力原文]
Whatdowelearnfromthenewsreport?
[解析]新闻中提到在距离火山约三公里处,至少已有一个村庄被火山灰掩埋(hasbeencovered),D项。
hasbeenburied是对原文的同义改写,故选D项。
部分农民拒绝撤离,因为没有了农作物和牲畜他们将无以为生,他们希望政府给予经济支持,而不是想带着农作物和牲畜一起离开,A项错误。
B项“政府将提供经济援助”没有在新闻中提到。
科学家告诉BBC说已确认Merapi处于爆发早期阶段,但仍不能预测到火山爆发的高潮时间,C项与新闻内容不符。

Wherewouldthesetwoandahalftonsofpeppersbesold?
[解析]新闻提到,巴勒斯坦官员声称,2.5吨辣椒经加尼入口已离开加沙并将在以色列出售(willbesold
inIsrael),故答案为C项。
本段新闻的难点之一就是其中出现了很多考生并不熟悉的地理名称,所以平时应积累一些相关的背景知识,对考试非常有帮助。
A项的“巴勒斯坦”是这些辣椒的出口国,B项“加沙”是辣椒的种植地,而D项“欧洲”是他们接下来进行贸易销售的地区。
A.Theyoccupiedthembyforce.
B.JewishleftthemtoPalestiniansasgifts.
C.Private,foreigndonorsgivethemthesegreenhouses.√
D.ThePalestiniangovernmentdistributedthemtocitizens.
解析:
[听力原文]
HowcouldPalestiniansgetthesegreenhouses?
[解析]新闻提到,一些民间和国外的捐赠者以1300万美元买下这些温室并赠送给巴勒斯坦,故选C项。
B项具有很强的迷惑性,新闻开始时提到“这些温室是由已撤离的犹太定居者留下的。
”但是我们仔细听下文就能发现实际上这些温室是因捐赠者赠送而得。
A项“他们通过武力占据”和D项“巴基斯坦政府赠送给民众”均没有在新闻中提到。
