˜ 答案解析 ——————————————————————————

1.听力原文：W: How did your interview go?

M: I couldn’t feel better about it. The questions were very fair and I seemed to find all answers for all of them.

正确答案：A

解题思路：can’t be/feel better 是口语中的常用句型，意思是“再好不过了”。

2.听力原文：W: Professor Ford caught some students cheating on the final exam and failed them right then and there.

M: Serves them right. I don’t sympathize with anyone trying to pass that way.

正确答案：C

解题思路：serve them right 的意思是 to be a good punishment for them.在本对话中，既可以根据serve本身的意义去判断，也可以根据男士第二句话的含义进行猜测，正确答案应为C。

3.听力原文：W: I don’t think you can finish the paper in time.

M: Well, could you lend me a hand?

正确答案：A

解题思路：lend sb. a hand 意思是帮助某人。

4.听力原文：M: Do you know what Lily’s hobbies are?

W: I don’t know, but she likes nothing better than to have a chat on the telephone with her friends.

正确答案：D

解题思路：女士说 "but she likes nothing better than to have a chat on the telephone with her friends", 双重否定就是肯定，所以说 Lily 喜欢在电话上和朋友聊天。

5.听力原文：W: Listen, John. You’ve already taken the interview. Just forget about it.

M: That’s easier said than done.

正确答案：C

解题思路：That’s easier said than done.意思是说得容易做得难。

6.听力原文：M: Did Bob have any plans to buy a house?

W: Hardly. A house is beyond his means.

正确答案：A

解题思路：beyond one’s means 意思是超过某人的经济能力，所以说他没钱买房子。

7.听力原文：W: Peter, you really should study hard. If you fail your exam, you’ll have to go out and work..

M: I don’t think it makes much difference. If I have a job, work will bore me every day; but if I’m in school, teachers will bore me every day.

正确答案：A

解题思路：此题的听力内容和选项中都有短语需要理解。女士劝说 Peter 好好学习，否则只好辍学工作了;男士说，"I don’t think it makes much difference." 意思是说上学和工作一样都没劲。选项中的 no more...than 意思是两个都不…，与 Peter 的意思相符。

8.听力原文：M: How did Mr. Johnson enjoy his first concert?

W: Oh, it was more than he could take. He disappeared before it was over.

正确答案：C

解题思路：more than 超过，不仅用在数量上，也可用于表达超过某人所承受的范围等。后一句提到他在音乐会结束之前就离开了。

9.听力原文：W: Tim White is a very well-known writer, and Jack Smith is less famous.

M: Do you really think so? To my mind, I think Tim White is the last one I’d regard as famous.

解题思路：the last one 表示最不会想到的，这是 PETS 三级考试中常见的题目。

10.听力原文：M: Are you sure you can’t recall the title of the book?

W: It’s just on the tip of my tongue!
