2012年4月8日口考试听力statements文本及解析

　1.That math problem is a hard one, even for Diana.

　　解析：听力教程unit1中statements第五题。even甚至，说明Diana的数学非同寻常的好呢!

　　2.Today is Thursday, and the exhibit is supposed to open the day after tomorrow.

　　解析：听力教程unit2中statements第二题。The day after tomorrow表示两天后，今天是周四，两天后当然就是周六咯!

　　3.The school boys walked into the hall two by two.

　　解析：听力教程unit3中statements第三题。我们上课时经常说让学生one by one地回答问题，所以two by two就是两个两个，即in pairs啦!

　　4.There hasn’t been a chef like Rob for a great many years.

　　解析：听力教程unit6中statements第八题。上课时还重点强调过哦!因为许多同学不明白exceptional(杰出的)含义，Joyce告诉大家，这个词就相当于excellent, marvellous, terrific, wonderful, great这一类表示赞赏的褒义词啦!

　　5.The referee blew his whistle and he brought the football game to a halt.

　　解析：听力教程unit7中statements第七题。Referee和whistle都是上课讲解过的词汇内容，bring to a halt意思就是裁判暂停了比赛(stop the match)嘛!

　　解析：run into sb是我们在口译部分词汇表中出现过的单词哦，表示“偶然遇见某人”。

　　7.When we knew you had a safe journey home, it was a load off my mind.

　　解析：load就相当于一个burden(负担，重负),a load off my mind表示“心中的大石头落地了”，所以是“安心，放心”的意思啦!

　　8.We stored a lot on the hard drive in the company.

　　hard drive表示“硬盘驱动器”的意思，这句话的意思是“我们在公司的硬盘驱动上储存了很多信息”。

　　9.Frankly speaking, I don’t think much of this movie.

　　解析：think much of sth表示“赞扬，对。。。高度评价”的意思。我对这部电影don’t’ think much of，当然是指我觉得这部电影不好看，不怎么样啦!

　　10. Marina didn’t answer the last two questions, but she did answer the first six.

　　解析：the last two questions最后两个问题，the first six questions最前面六个问题。Marina最后两题没答上来，但是前六题还是会做滴~
