WhatdowelearnaboutIrelandfromthenewsreport?
[解析]需要对文中提到的部分细节准确判断。
原文中提到Itdoesnotmeanthatthemoneyhasbeenrepaid—thatwilltakeuntil2042.即这并不意味着钱已经偿还——偿还将一直持续到2042年。
因此,正确答案为B。
6.
A.Theeconomyhasbeensmaller.

seconomy?
[解析]新闻中提到theeconomyisstill9%smallerthanitwassixyearsago.即经济规模仍比6年前小9%,故本题选A。
需要区分干扰选项B,新闻中有Ithasgrown,表明经济在增长,但是要注意这不是与6年前的情况所做的比较。
7.
A.Torefuseofferingfinancialassistance.
B.Togeneratethetaxrevenue.
C.Toimprovethelivingstandards.

故本题选B。

WhatwasFrankdoingatthebeginningoftheconversation?
[解析]题干问在对话刚开始的时候弗兰克正在做什么。
对话开头处女士问男士(弗兰克)正在做什么,是不是在看一本法语语法书,男士委婉地表示了肯定,说“呃,我正在努力自学一些法语。
”故答案为D。
A.France.
B.England.
C.Canada.
D.TheU.S.
Whichcountryisthemanheadingfornextsemester?
[解析]对话中男士对女士说,他正在自学法语,下学期要去蒙特利尔,从下文女士的话中也可以得知男士要去加拿大,由此可知,本题应选C。
对话中提到法语,因此考生容易误选A项(法国),其实加拿大有很多地方的官方语言就是法语,因此考生不可以想当然,应该认真听清相关信息,不被干扰信息所干扰。
A.Gettheuniversity'

B.FollowSusan'

C.TakemoreFrenchcoursestoimprovehisskills.
D.Makeinquiriesabouttherequirementsforteachingabroad.
WhatdoesthewomansuggestFrankdo?
[解析]题干问女士建议弗兰克怎么做。
在对话后半部分女士说道:
“如果你想日后把学分转回来的话,你最好在走之前做好安排。
不要忘了苏珊从罗马回来之后在她身上所发生的情况。
”可以推测,女士所说的“做好安排”应是征得大学的同意,使留学时获得的学分能够转回本校。
故答案为A。
A.Hewantstochangehisfieldofstudy.
B.Heneedstoearnagraduatedegree.
C.Heneedstogetbettergrades.
D.He'
sfulfilledhisgraduationrequirements.
WhatdoesFranksayabouthisacademicstatus?
[解析]题干问关于自己的学术状况弗兰克说了什么。
当听了女士对他的建议之后,弗兰克回答道:
“我和她(苏珊)的情况不一样。
我已经修完了所有的学分,因此不需要担心无法毕业的问题。
”因此答案为D。
