2010年真题答案详解 PART I DICTATION Freshmen’s Week Britain has a [1]well-respected [2]higher education system /and some of the top universities and research institutions in the world. /But to those who are new to [3]this system, /it can sometimes be confusing. October is usually the busiest month in the [4]academic calendar. /Universities have something called [5]Freshmen’s Week for their newcomers. /It’s a great opportunity to make new friends, /join lots of clubs and [6]settle into university life. However, having just left the comfort of home and all your friends behind, /the prospect of meeting strangers in classrooms and dormitories can be worrying. / Where do you start? /And who should you make friends with? /Which clubs and [7]societies should you [8]join? Luckily, there will be thousands of others [9]in the same boat as you. /They worry about starting their university social life [10]on the right foot. /So just [11]take it all in slowly. /Don’t rush into anything that you’ll regret for the next three years. 【】 第一遍听音时掌握短文主题，记下关键词education system，universities，Freshmen’s Week等，这样便于把握一系列与主题相关的词和词组，如academic calendar，university life，dormitories，clubs，societies。 well-respected是“副词+动词的过去分词”构成的复合形容词，类似的词有well-known，well-established等，注意不要漏写中间的连字符。 按照英语习惯，“高等教育”一般用higher education来表达，正如“高等数学”要用higher mathematics来表达一样。因此higher不能写成原级。 因为this词尾与system词首都发/s/音，故this的/s/音省略不发。考生容易this误写成the。 academic calendar之间不完全爆破，calendar的拼写较有难度，考生可根据音。 Freshmen’s Week属于专有名词，首字母需大写，第一个单词用的是复数名词的所有格形式。 settle into university life意为“在校园里安顿下来，习惯于大学生活”，注意此处settle后接介词into。 [7]societies在此与clubs并列，意思是“社团”，是可数名词，因clubs采用复数，根据逻辑societies也要用复数形式。 join作“参加，成为…的成员”讲时是及物动词，后面没有in。 in the same boat为固定搭配，意为“处于同样（常指不幸的）境地”。 [10]on the right foot意思是“有一个顺利的开始；处于有利地位”，最后一个/t/音发音很轻。 注意这几个词之间的连读。PART II LISTENING COMPREHENSION SECTION A CONVERSATIONS CONVERSATION ONE 【听前预测】由题干和选项中的travelers，flight details，tour，price，travel insuranc
