Question11:
A: In the final exams, my math got 90, physics 92, Chinese 68, English 75.
B: And to make matters worse, you only got 55 for history, very uneven work, indeed.
Question: What was the girl’s mark for Chinese?
解析：听力教程unit1中short conversations第二十题。本题考点在于用各种数字迷惑考生，再询问其中一个，务必边听边做好笔记，否则很容易搞混。
Question12:
A: Sir, I bought this DVD player here and there’s something wrong with it. Could you repair it for free? Here’s my receipt.
B: If it is under warrantee, we can. Oh, sorry, it has run out.
Question: What does the man mean?
解析：听力教程unit2中short conversations第十二题。Repair for free免费修理,be under warrantee在保修期之内，run out (of warrantee)超过了保修期，所以不可能免费帮忙修理了。这题Joyce上课重点解答过哦!
Question 13:
A: Would you like me to bring you some bread from the store?
B: Thanks, but I haven’t finished this loaf yet.
Question: What does the woman mean?
解析：听力教程unit3中short conversations第十四题。loaf是表示面包的量词，a loaf of bread表示“一条面包”，我还没有吃完这条，说明不需要你帮忙买面包嘛!
Question 14:
A: You play the violin very well.
B: Thank you. I’m just an ordinary amateur, and I play it for pleasure.
Question: what are they talking about?
解析：听力教程unit6中short conversations第十三题。Joyce上课时曾就“amateur”这个单词重点讲解过，表示“业余爱好者”，所以这两个人当然是在谈论hobby咯!
Question 15:
A: Tim seemed to think Mariah Carey’s concert last night was disappointing.
B: That’s his opinion. Most others think differently.
Question: what does the woman mean?
解析：听力教程unit7中short conversations第二十题。Tim个人认为disappointing(令人失望的)，但是其他人think differently还有不同看法，说明别人意见与他不同，只有他一个人这么想而已。
Question 16:
A: I want to change the shoes to size 37. They aren’t large for me.
B: I’m afraid I can’t. The key is broken.
Question: where does the conversation take place?
解析：换鞋子的尺码，对话很显然发生在鞋店咯!
Question17:
A: is the movie as good as the advertisement says?
B: we are never told the truth.
Question: what can we learn from the conversation?
解析：we are never told the truth指的是the advertisement never tells us the truth广告从不告诉我们实话，说明完全没有广告中描述的那么好。
Question 18:
A: Ted’s complaining to me that his wife is always self-important.
B: actually, it is like the pot calls the cattle black.
Question: what does the man mean?
解析：本题考点在于一句谚语:the pot calls the cattle black，表示“五十步笑百步”，说明他的妻子以自我为中心，他本人也好不到哪儿去!
Question 19:
A: Joseph, today is the last day for Harry Potter to be on. You promised to watch with me.
B: sorry, I am exhausted after a day’s work, and the best thing for me now is to his the hay.
Question: what will Joseph probably going to do?
解析：本题考点也是谚语：bit the hay，直译为“倒在稻草上”，引申为“睡觉”的意思。
Question 20:
A: Cake and Cream are very compatible. They are made for each other.
B; I can’t agree more.
Question: What can we learn form. the conversation?
Question: compatible表示“兼容的，协调的”，they are made for each other是英语中一个常用表达，形容“他们真是天造地设的一对”，用在这里表示这两者的味道调和得无与伦比。
