Passage Two
Unlike most of the other holidays, the history of April Fool's Day is not totally clear. [29]The closest point in time that can be identified as the beginning of this tradition was in 1582, in France. Before that year, the new year was celebrated for eight days, beginning on March 25 and lasting until April 1. With the reform of the calendar under Charles IX, a new calendar was introduced, and New Year's Day was moved to January 1. However, many people did not receive the news or refused to accept the new calendar and continued to celebrate the new year on April 1. These backward folk were labeled as "fools" by the general public. They were often sent on "fool's errands" or were made the target of other practical jokes. This evolved, over time, into a tradition of joke-playing on the first day of April. [30]The tradition eventually spread to England and Scotland in the 18th century. It was later introduced to the American colonies of both the English and French. Jokes performed on April Fool's Day range from the simple (such as saying, "Your shoe's untied!"), to the elaborate. Setting a room-mate's alarm clock back an hour is a common trick. Whatever the joke, the trickster usually ends it by yelling to his victim, "April Fool!" Practical jokes are a common practice on April Fool's Day. [31]Sometimes, elaborate practical jokes are played on friends or relatives that last the entire day. The news media even gets involved. For instance, a British short film once shown on April Fool's Day was a fairly detailed documentary about "noodle farmers" and how they harvest their crop from the noodle trees. April Fool's Day is a "for-fun-only" celebration. Nobody is expected to buy gifts or to take their "significant other" out to eat in a fancy restaurant. Nobody gets off work or school. It's simply a fun little holiday, but a holiday on which one must remain forever alert, for he may be the next April Fool!
答案解析：
Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.
29. When was the new year celebrated in France before 1582?
[C]解析：短文第2、3句提到：“可以被確認爲愚人節傳統開始之日的最切近的年份是1582年，在法國。在此之前，新年從3月25日開始，4月1日結束，共慶祝8天。”因此選C。考查細節，聽到什麼選什麼。考慮到各選項提到的起始日期均不相同，只要聽到原文中的March 25就可以正確作答。
30. When did the tradition of April Fool's Day spread to England?
[B]解析：短文提到，“該傳統最終在18世紀傳入英格蘭和蘇格蘭。”故選B。由選項知，本題肯定問時間。好在文中只提到一個18th century，故本題不難解答。
31. What do we know from the passage?
[B]解析：短文中提到，“有時候，對親友開的一些巧妙的現實玩笑會持續一整天。”B正確。由選項可推知，本題問人們在愚人節這一天會怎麼做。“絕對化的選項不是答案”，因爲這樣的話不合事實。可以由此排除A(must太絕對)，C(usually，不見得)。本題也可以從時間副詞上找到解題鑰匙：sometimes不難聽出;until the end of the day與last the entire day同義替換。

聽力原文：
Passage One
The space shuttle Discovery has safely returned to earth after 2 weeks in earth's orbit. Discovery commander Eileen Collins guided the shuttle to an easy landing at Edwards Air Force Base in California early Tuesday. [26]American Space Agency officials described Discovery's trip as wildly successful. But they refused to say when the shuttle may fly again. The Space Agency has suspended all future shuttle flights until it can discover why a piece of hard protective material broke off from Discovery. A similar incident damaged the Columbia space shuttle in 2003. Columbia was destroyed as it reentered earth's atmosphere.
Japan has marked the 60th anniversary of the atomic bomb attack on the city of Nagasaki. The American bombings of Nagasaki and Hiroshima ended World War II. [27]Nagasaki Mayor Iccho Itoh called for a world ban on nuclear weapons. He urged Americans to ask if the United States needs thousands of nuclear arms to guarantee its security. A short time later, Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi said he would work to keep Japan free of nuclear weapons.
[28]In Cambodia, an opposition politician has been sentenced to 7 years in prison for plotting to overthrow the government. Cheam Channy was arrested in February after the National Assembly canceled his parliamentary protection from legal charges. He denies any wrongdoing. A court found Cheam Channy and opposition member Khom Peseth guilty. Khom Peseth received a 5-year prison sentence.
Briefly, here again is the major news of the hour.
The American space shuttle Discovery has safely returned to earth.
Japan has marked the 60th anniversary of the atomic bomb attack on Nagasaki. And in Cambodia, an opposition politician has been sentenced to 7 years in prison for plotting to overthrow the government.
答案解析：
Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.
26. How did American Space Agency officials describe Discovery's trip?
[B]解析：原文說，“美國宇航局官員稱，‘發現號’的旅程獲得巨大成功”。因此選B。本題符合“聽到什麼選什麼”的解題原則。wildly successful原詞再現，容易聽取。
27. What did Nagasaki Mayor call for?
[A]解析：預讀選項，全是名詞選項，核心詞彙是Japan，world ban，nuclear weapons/research/technology，development，suspending，推測可能問新聞的主題或細節。新聞提到，“長崎市市長伊藤一長呼籲全世界禁止核武器”，聽到什麼選什麼，由此選A。
28. What was the charge against the two opposition politicians?
[D]解析：第三則新聞開頭即稱，“在柬埔寨，一位反對派因密謀顛覆政府而被判入獄7年”，因此選D。選項都說plotting，只是該“陰謀”的具體內容不同。聽到新聞開頭的"plotting to..."時，集中注意力，就可以聽到D中的"overthrow the government"原詞再現了。

Passage Three
[33]A new book by two professors at Pennsylvania State University compares public education systems around the world. [32]The book is called National Differences, Global Similarities: World Culture and the Future of Schooling.
David Baker and Gerald LeTendre led a group of researchers who gathered information on about 50 countries. Some findings came from the Third International Mathematics and Science Study. That study took place in 1994 and again five years later.
The professors say education is increasingly shaped by what they call "transnational forces". Officials in many countries are concerned about how their students compare with students in other countries.
Each part of the book develops a different subject researched in schools around the world. One of the subjects is violence among students. [34]The professors say countries with the most school violence include Hungary, Romania and the Philippines.
They say the United States is somewhere in the middle, above nations like New Zealand, Canada, South Korea, Spain and Australia. The findings are based on reports from students.
[35]Professor Baker says inequalities in educational systems act as an says schools that are sharply divided between "winners and losers" in math have higher levels of violence. "This does not mean that nations should stop trying to raise scores," he says. "But they should be careful to raise the performance among all students."
答案解析：
Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
32. What is the title of the book?
[C]解析：C是由短文提到的書名照搬下來的選項。四個選項都是專有名詞，或者問短文的主旨大意，或者問別的什麼標題。C、D的差異只在一個詞上(similarities與differences)，聽錄音時要多注意。
33. What can we learn about the book from the passage?
[D]解析：短文第1句即提到，賓夕法尼亞州立大學的兩位教授的一本新書比較了世界各地的公共教育體制。因此D正確。短文第1句往往是出題的重點。聽到什麼選什麼。
34. Where did the study find the most school violence?
[B]解析：文中提到：“兩位教授說，校園暴力最多的國家包括匈牙利、羅馬尼亞和菲律賓。”因此B正確。讀題可知，本題問到幾個國家名稱，這幾個國家有着某種共同點。聽錄音時，可一項項“對號入座”。語義強調之處會出題，文中the most school violence成了選項的標誌。
35. Which opinion would Professor Baker support?
[C]解析：短文最後說到：“Baker教授說，教育體制的不平等產生了影響。”C正確。A、B、D的觀點也可以對照短文最後的內容一一排除。此外，絕對化的選項不是答案，可排除A。B、D的觀點也不符合一般情理。
