Listening Section 3, Questions 21-30

21. What will be the main topic of Trudie and Stewart’s paper?

A. how public library services are organised in different countries

B. how changes in society are reflected in public libraries

C. how the funding of public libraries has changed

答案： B

题干翻译： Trudie 和 Stewart 论文的主题是什么？

解题思路： 本题询问 main topic 是什么，那么我们就可以用 main topic 做题目答案内容定位词。选项 A 可以用 services、different countries 做选项关键词；选项 B 可以用 changes in society 做选项关键词；选项 C 可以用 funding 做选项关键词。注意这些关键词在音频中有被同义替换的可能。

答案原文：

TRUDIE: Maybe we should concentrate on this country, and try and relate the changes in libraries to external developments, like the fact that far more people can read than a century ago, and that the local population may speak lots of different languages.

STEWART: We could include something about changes in the source of funding, too. TRUDIE: Yes, but remember we’re only supposed to write a short paper, so it’s probably best if we don’t go into funding in any detail.

答案解析: 当听到 Trudie 问 Stewart：Have you thought of an angle yet？ 时，我们要知道，接下来会讨论写论文的选取角度，和本题内容相关，因而，后面的内容要重点听。Stewart 先是给出一些建议，问 Trudie 的看法。当听到 Trudie 说 Maybe we should concentrate on this country 时，要反应出这句话中的 on this country 和 A 项中的 in different countries 是矛盾的，故 A 项为错。接着，听到 Trudie 说 try and relate the changes in libraries to external developments，这句话和 B 项表述内容一致，因而 B 项为正确项。尽管 Stewart 提议 We could include something about changes in the source of funding，但是被 TRUDIE 以 a short paper 为由否定了。所以，综上，本题答案为 B。

22. They agree that one disadvantage of free digitaliesd books is that

A. they may take a long time to read.

B. they can be difficult to read.

C. they are generally old.

答案： C

题干翻译： 他们一致认为，免费电子书有一个 __ 的缺陷。

解题思路： 本题可用 disadvantage of free digitaliesd books 做答案内容定位词。选项内容较少，我们可直接记忆。但是，我们要注意，A 项和 B 项容易被混淆，A 项和阅读时间相关，B 项和阅读难度相关。

答案原文：

STEWART: But the digitalised books that are available online for free are mostly out of copyright, aren’t they? And copyright in this country lasts for 70 years after the author dies. So you won’t find the latest best-seller or up-to-date information.

答案解析： 当听到 Now that lots of books have been digitalized 时, 要反应出，这句话和 digitaliesd book 是同义表达。当我们听到 So you won’t find the latest best-seller or up-to-date information 时，我们要知道，这些电子书都不是最近的畅销书，也没有当下的信息。也就是他们比较老，和 C 项表述一致，所以本题答案为 C 项。 尽管 Trudie 在后面说到 I find it hard to concentrate; It takes longer to read on a screen, 表示看电子书要花费更多的时间，但是 Stewart 随后以 personal prederence 为由否认了 Trudie 的看法，所以 A.B 两项为错。

23. Stewart expects that in the future libraries will

A. maintain their traditional function.

B. become centres for local communities.

C. no longer contain any books.

答案： C

题干翻译： Stewart 猜测未来的图书馆会 __

解题思路： 本题可用 future libraries 做答案内容定位词。A 项可用 traditional function 做选项关键词；B 项可用 centres 做选项关键词；C 项可用 books 做选项关键词。但要注意这些定位词和关键词在音频中，有被同义替换的可能。

答案原文：

Trudie ：I expected that libraries will go on evolving in the next few years. Some have already become centers where community activities take place, like local clubs meeting there. I think that'll become even more common.

Stewart: I’d like to think so, and that they’ll still be serving their traditional function, but I’m not so sure. There are financial implications, after all. What I’m afraid will happen is that books and magazines will all disappear, and there’ll just he rows and rows of computers. They won’t look anything like the libraries we’re used to.

Trudie: Well, we’ll see.

答案解析： 当听到 Trudie 说 I expected that libraries will go on evolving in the next few years 时，要知道这就话和题干中的 future libraries 是同义表达，因而后面的内容和本题相关。我们首先听到 Some have already become centers where community activities take place，这句话和 B 项内容相关，其中 centres 在音频中以原型的形式出现。音频中的 have become（已经成为）和题干中的 become（即将成为） 时态不一致，因而可将 B 项排除。接着，听到 Stewart 说 they’ll still be serving their traditional function, but I’m not so sure 时，我们要反应出，这句话和 A 项相关，其中 traditional function 在音频中以原型的形式出现，但根据后半句 I’m not so sure，可知 Stewart 并不确定未来图书馆是否还有传统功能，因而可将 A 项排除。 最后，听到 What I’m afraid will happen is that books and magazines will all disappear 时，要反应出，这句话和 C 项内容相关，其中 disappear 和 no longer contain 是同义表达。该句和 C 项表述一致，所以本题答案为 C。

24. whether it has a __ of its own

答案：budget

题干翻译：它是不是有自己 __

解题思路：根据空格所在位置，我们可以知道空格所缺单词的词性为名词。本题可用 its own 做题目信息定位词。

答案原文：

Trudie：Why don't we make an in-depth study of our local public library as background to our paper? Stewart: Yes, that’d be interesting, and raise all sorts of issues. Let’s make a list of possible things we could ask about, then work out some sort of structure. For instance, um, we could interview some of the staff, and find out whether the library has its own budget, or if that’s controlled by the local council.

答案解析： 当听到 in-depth study of our local public library 和 a list of possible things we could ask about 时，要反应出，这两句合起来就是 24-30 题标题 Study of local library:possible questions 的同义表达。因而，在后面的音频中会出现 24-30 题的答案。 当听到 its own 时，我们要快速反应出它是 24 题的题目信息定位词，其后的 budget 就是本题所需答案。

25. how it’s affected by laws regarding all aspects of __

答案： employment

题干翻译： 关于 __ 各方面的法律是如何影响它的

解题思路： 根据空格所在位置，我们可知，空格所缺单词为名词。regarding all aspects of 做 laws 的后置定语，也就是说，我们在音频中要听是什么类型的法律。本题可用 laws 做题目的答案信息定位词。

答案原文：

Stewart: Ah, I’ve often wondered. Then there are things like how the library is affected by employment laws. I suppose there are rules about working hours, facilities for staff, and so on.

答案解析： 在音频中，可以很清楚的听到 employment laws，所以本题答案为 employment。

26. how the design needs to take the __ of customers into account

答案： safety

题干翻译： 设计是如何考虑顾客的 __ 因素的。

解题思路： 根据空格所在位置，可以知道，空格所缺单词的词性为名词。本题可用 design 和 customers 做题目答案信息定位词。

答案原文：

Trudie: Right. Then there are other issues relating to the design of the building and how customers use it. Like what measures does the library take to ensure their safety?

答案解析： 本题答案内容定位词 design 和 customers 在音频中以原型形式出现，当我们听到 design of the building and how customers use it 时，要知道此处的音频内容和第 26 题相关。接着，我们听到 to ensure their safety 时，要反应出此处的 their 指 customers’，要保证顾客的安全，也就是说，在设计的时候，要把顾客的安全考虑进去，所以本题答案为 safety。

27. what __ is required in case of accidents

答案： insurance

题干翻译： 以防发生事故，需要 __

解题思路： 根据空格所在位置，可以知道，空格所缺单词为名词。根据已知题意，我们可以推测，空格所缺单词和安全措施有关。本题可用 accidents 做题目答案信息定位词。

答案原文： Trudie: … Oh, and another thing — there’s the question of the kind of insurance the library needs to have, in case anyone gets injured.

答案解析：当听到 in case anyone gets injured 时，我们要反应出，它是题干中 in case of accidents 的同义表达，因而，我们定位到了本题的答案信息处。本题的难点在于，答案先于定位词出现。根据前文信息 there’s the question of the kind of insurance the library needs to have，我们可知，需要考虑的问题是 insurance ，所以本题答案为 insurance。

28. why a famous person’s __ is located in the library

答案：diary

题干翻译： 为什么名人的 __ 会被放置在图书馆内

解题思路： 根据空格所在位置，我们可以知道，空格所缺单词为名词。根据已知题意，我们可以知道，所缺单词表示 famous person 的某件物品。本题可用 famous person 做题目答案信息定位词。

答案原文：

Stewart: Well, you know they’ve got an archive of local newspapers going back years? Well, next to it they’ve got the diary of a well-known politician from the late 19th century. I wonder why it’s there. Do you know what his connection was with this area?

答案解析：本题难度较低。当听到 they’ve got the diary of a well-known politician from the late 19th century 这句话时，我们要反应出，well-known 和题干中的 famous 是同义表达，politician 是 person 的下义词，此处两者互为同义表达。图书馆拥有的这些 well-known politician 的东西是 diary，所以本题答案为 diary。

29. whether it has a __ of local organisations

答案：database

题干翻译： 是否它有本地机构的 __

解题思路： 根据空格所在位置，我们可以知道，空格所缺单词的词性为名词。本题可用 local organisation 做答案信息定位词。

答案原文：

Trudie: No idea. Let’s add it to our list of things to find out. Oh, I’ve just thought — you know people might ask in the library about local organisations, like sports clubs? Well, I wonder if they keep a database, or whether they just look online.

答案解析：当听到 local organisations 时，要反应出，这是本题答案信息定位词。接着，往后听到 I wonder if they keep a database 时，我们要反应出，wonder if 和题干中的 whether 是同义表达，they 指代 library，和题干中的 it 指代一致，keep 和题干中的 has 是同义表达，所以本题答案为 database。

30. how it’s different from a library in a __

答案：museum

题干翻译： 它与位于 __ 处的图书馆是如何不同的

解题思路： 根据空格所在位置，我们可以知道，空格所缺单词词性为名词；根据已知题干意思，所缺单词有可能表示某个地点，将两种类型的图书馆进行对比。本题可用 different 做答案信息定位词，但是要注意，它在音频中有可能会被同义替换了。

答案原文： STEWART: Right. I quite fancy finding out what the differences are between a library that’s open to the public and one that’s part of a museum, for example —they must be very different.

答案解析：当听到 differences 时，要反应出，它是题干答案信息定位词 different 的名词形式。所以，我们要重点听此处的信息。当听完 the differences are between a library that’s open to the public and one that’s part of a museum 这句话时，我们要反应出，此处是将两种类型的图书馆 a library that’s open to the public 和 one that’s part of a museum 做对比，符合题目已知信息。is part of 和 in a 在此处是同义表达，所以本题答案是 museum。
