【录音原文】
  Bessy: Hi, Jacky! What a surprise! I haven’t seen you for ages.
  Jacky:Hello, Bessy. How nice to see you again. How are you?
  Bessy: I’m fine. How are you getting on with your work?
  Jacky: Well, things at work are going quite well; but I’ve been involved in a whole lot of problems recently that have to do with one of my business trips to Sydney.
  Bessy: Business trip to Sydney, oh, that reminds me what I read on a magazine...
  Jacky: You wouldn’t believe the service some of the airlines provide these days!
  Bessy: Do you mean one particular airline?
  Jacky: I have traveled extensively with Pan America, Air Japan, Air China and a number of other airlines. But I have never seen one like Continental Airline. You know, being a sales manager, I travel quite a bit in my work, but the trip I made, or rather, that I tried to make, to Sydney last Friday, was, was ...
  Bessy:If I’m not mistaken, it was three weeks ago.
  Jacky: Er, yes, that’s right. I’ve been so upset about it, that I can’t remember when things actually happened. Anyway, I was just going up to Sydney for some routine company meetings, and the whole day was totally wasted because of Continental Airline’s handling of their shuttle service on the Canberra-Sydney flight course.
  Bessy:But that wasn’t exactly the problem, was it? I mean, airlines aren’t responsible for the poor weather conditions.
  Jacky: Well, no. I can’t blame them for the fog but, let me see—oh, yes, then the pilot just circled around for hours and hours and then insisted on going to Melbourne instead, so that we didn’t get back to Sydney until late afternoon, when all my meetings had finished by then and ...
  Bessy:Mm—I think you’ve missed out some important details there—what about the fact that the plane needed to refuel?
  Jacky: Well, yes, after all that circling in the air over Sydney, I suppose we were running short of gasoline. Now, what happened next?

第1题:

[A] looking for [B] looking into [C] looking after [D] looking over


正确答案:C

    此题属于语意搭配题。look after表示“照料,照顾”,原文指私人保障体系如何对待那些不走运的人以及老年人,可见此处应选“照顾,照管”,即选项[C] looking after正确。[A] look for表示“寻找”;选项[B] look into表示“调查”;选项[D] look over表示“检查,浏览”。

    全句可译为:与公众的看法相反,这不仅仅是一个自由竞争体系,庞大的公共保障体系已与私人保障体系结合在一起了,因为私人保障体系唯一不保障的就是那些不太走运的人或老年人。

A.because it is a global expression of cultural modernity

B.because it is the first designed and built modern building

C.because everyone in the world with media access knows what the Sydney Opera House looks like

D.because it is the pioneer in accomplishing such an international architectural icon


正确答案:D
解析:细节题。由题干outlive the Guggenheim定位到第二段末句,这里说到悉尼剧院将比古根海姆博物馆更加流传,因为它是国际建筑的开路先锋,D“因为它是现代国际性建筑偶像的鼻祖”与此意一致。A尽管在文章中提到了,但不算是题干中提到的原因:B中的first有问题,第二段尽管提到the opera house was the single best-known modern building,但并没有说是第一;C只是在陈述悉尼歌剧院闻名的程度。
