[解题思路]从6—7题的问题及选项中可推断出,这段新闻报道是与一次事件中一只狗救了一名婴儿有关。
听新闻时要注意,往往第一句就会报道事件的地点、人物及起因。
答题时还要关注里面有关thedog和thebaby的行为。
[详细解答]从记者的话“Thefirebrokeoutatthethree-storybuildingbehindme.”中可知这是一起三层楼房失火的事件,故正确答案应为C,而A、B、D三个选项中提到的三种灾害在报道中并未提及。

[解题思路]从8—10题的选项中可推断出,这段新闻报道的是关于一次极为罕见的日偏食。
答题时要特别关注”unique”、“sunglasses”等字眼及报道中最后一句话的内容。
[详细解答]对于这次日偏食之所以独特的原因,报道中说得很清楚:
WhatmadethisparticularsolareclipseuniquewasthatsuchaneventhasoccuredonDecembertwenty-fifthonly30timesduringthepast5000years,thelasttimein1954。
即这种发生在圣诞节的日食在过去的5000年中只有30次,可见它这种日期是非常稀罕的,故正确答案应为B。
第4题
WhichstatementwasNOTmentionedaboutviewinganeclipse?
ASunglassesblockoutonlyalimitedamountofthesun'
sultravioletraysthatcandamagetheeye.
BSunglassescanonlyfilterharmfulraysduringtotalsolareclipsesattheirgreatestmagnitude.
CSunglassestendtocausethecenteroftheeyetoenlargeallowinginmoreintenselight.
DSunglassesshouldbeusedwhenanypartofthesunisvisibl
[详细解答]对于如何观看日食,报道中提出的第一种办法就是用太阳镜过滤太阳的有害光线,但同时也指出太阳镜也有它的问题:
Theyshouldbeusedwhenanypartofthesunisvisible.Sunglassescanblockoutsomeofthesun'
snaturalreactiontothisdarkenstatewhenwearingsunglassesistomakethepupillarger,whichallowsinmorelightandcanintensifythedamagetoyoureyes.这三句恰好与D、A、C选项中的内容相符合,报道中并没有提到过B项,故正确答案应为B。
第5题
Whatisonefactwedonotlearnfromthefinalcommentaryofthevideo?
APeoplewhocanrecordthenexteclipse.
BThedateofanupcomingsolareclipse.
CHowtorecordaneclipseforyourposterity.
DWherethenextChristmaseclipsewilloccur.
[详细解答]从报道的最后一句“YourposteritycanrecordthenexteclipseonChristmasintheyear2307,butonlyiftheirvisitingthewestcoastofAfricafortheholidays”可见,里面提到了可以记录下一次圣诞节观看日食的人物(你的子孙)、时间(2307年的圣诞节)和地点(非洲西海岸),即A、B、D选项的内容,唯独没有提到C项,故C为正确答案。

[解题思路]从5个题的问题及选项中,特别是从第5题的题目和选项中,可推断出,本文主要是谈论废旧物(包括纸张在内)的循环利用过程中的关键所在,所以要注意与recycle相关的内容。
