13.W: Tony was awarded a medal for rescuing several families from the forest fire.

　　M: I really admire his courage.

　　Q: What do we learn about Tony from the conversation?

　　解析：選 B He was very courageous

　　難度等級：四星

　　Pre-Listening(預(yù)讀分析)：

　　CD為相反選項(xiàng)但未出答案，屬例外考點(diǎn)，但出題點(diǎn)本身同義替換簡單，原文Courage替換成Courageous.

　　While-Listening(聽時(shí)重點(diǎn))：

　　本題難點(diǎn)在于考官未按常規(guī)出題原則設(shè)置原文和選項(xiàng)特征，答案即不符合“尾詞錯(cuò)誤”也跳出了相反選項(xiàng)范圍，故聽時(shí)對短時(shí)判斷和自身實(shí)力的要求更高一些;同時(shí)考點(diǎn)過于明顯，讓人難以相信，可能導(dǎo)致不少考慮過多或死守原則做題的同學(xué)出現(xiàn)失誤。

　　14.M: My washing machine is more than fifteen years old and it has worked just fine until last night.

　　W: You’ll never be able to get parts for it, even from Japan. So it might be time to invest a more recent model.

　　Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?

　　解析：選 B Buy a new washing machine.

　　難度等級：四星

　　Pre-Listening(預(yù)讀分析)：

　　因果題型，出題點(diǎn)同義替換難度較大，但相反項(xiàng)明顯;BD是相反項(xiàng)，B選項(xiàng)“買新洗衣機(jī)”，D卻說“舊洗衣機(jī)修理后繼續(xù)用”;A選項(xiàng)場景唯一可排除;還剩C選項(xiàng)，考官用Machine混淆視聽，與Washing machine無關(guān)，也可聽時(shí)由You’ll never be able to get parts for it時(shí)排除。

　　While-Listening(聽時(shí)重點(diǎn))：

　　由You’ll never be able to get parts for it再次排除C，原文只字未提fix或關(guān)于修理的任何內(nèi)容，可排除D，對話重點(diǎn)由SO(原因項(xiàng)標(biāo)志詞)引出，最終選B。

　　15.W: I heard about your promotion, you must be thrilled.

　　M: Not really, the new office is huge, but the word load has doubled.

　　Q: What do we learn about the man from the conversation?

　　解析：選 D He is not excited about his new position
