myself and my wife waited on tables. Angeleno负责做菜,他妻子负责接待,对应选项B。
24. B) He advertises a lot on radio and in newspapers.
解析:从But I advertise a lot on radio and in local newspapers. 一句中,可以得到对应选项。
25. B) The restaurant atomsphere
解析:题目问的是,什么有助于餐厅的成功?对话中提到,I always serve the freshest possible food and I make the atmosphere as comfortable and as pleasant as I can, so that my customers will want to come back. 可见,Angeleno会提供尽可能新鲜的食物和舒适的用餐环境以吸引顾客,因此,对应选项B,也许,有童鞋会问,为什么不选C?注意,C选项是指各种各样的食物,与文意中“新鲜的食物”不符,是错误选项。
这篇对话是一篇较为简单的访谈节目,主要涉及一些细节问题,其中,关键细节包括餐馆经营情况,广告宣传情况等,也是考点所在。童鞋们在听时,可以相应地做些简单的笔记,从而准确地选出选项。
Section B
Passage One
There are many commonly held beliefs about eye glasses and eyesight that are not proven facts. For instance, some people believe that wearing glasses too soon weakens the eyes. But there is no evidence to show that the structure of eyes is changed by wearing glasses at a young age. Wearing the wrong glasses, however, can prove harmful. Studies show that for adults there is no danger, but children can develop loss of vision if they have glasses inappropriate for their eyes.
We have all heard some of the common myths about how eyesight gets bad. Most people believe that reading in dim light causes poor eyesight, but that is untrue. Too little light makes the eyes work harder, so they do get tired and strained. Eyestrain also results from reading a lot, reading in bed, and watching too much television. However, although eyestrain may cause some pain or headaches, it does not permanently damage eyesight.
Another myth about eyes is that they can be replaced, or transferred from one person to another. There are close to one million nerve fibres that connect the eyeball to the brain, as of yet it is impossible to attach them all in a new person. Only certain parts of the eye can be replaced. But if we keep clearing up the myths and learning more about the eyes, some day a full transplant may be possible.
