2013年大学英语四级听力短对话练习26

　　15.

　　M: What a boring speaker! I can hardly stay awake.

　　W: Well, I don't know. In fact, I think it's been a long time since I've heard anyone is good.

　　Q: What do we learn from the conversation?

　　15.

　　D The woman thinks highly of the speaker

　　男：这个发言人真没劲透了，我听得忍不住想睡觉。

　　女：好吧，我不确定，实际上我很久没听到如此精彩的演说了。

　　问：从对话中能够得知什么?

　　答：根据听力原文可知，男生觉得演讲无趣，女生却很淡定地说：“其实我已经很久没有听到那么好的发言了”。由此可见，女生对发言还是很肯定的。选项D中“thinks highly of”即“对…评价高”，故D是正确答案。

　　16.

　　C. The woman should seek help from tutoring services.

　　女：我的逻辑学学得糟糕透了，但是教授讲的课我又看不懂。

　　男：你知道吗，学校里有专门的辅导班。我通过他们的帮助通过了本来没有希望的统计学。

　　问：男人的这段话什么意思?

　　答：意思是女人应该像他一样参加辅导班。

　　首先女生说她逻辑学得很辛苦，接受不了老师的讲课方式也理解不了课程内容。而后男生说学校有辅导班，他在参加之前几乎要挂科了，辅导班帮了他大忙。言下之意是推荐女生也去上辅导班。
