1997聽力原文PART DICTATION Legal Age for MarriageThroughout the United States, the legal age for marriage shows some difference. The most common age without parents consent is eighteen for both females and males. However, persons who are under age in their home state can get married in another state, and then return to the home state legally married. Each state issues its own marriage license. Both residents and nonresidents are qualified for such a license. The fees and ceremonies vary greatly from state to state. Most states, for instance, have a blood test requirement, but a few do not. Most states permit either a civil or religious ceremony, but a few require the ceremony to be religious. In most states, a waiting period is required before the license is issued. This period is from one to five days depending on the state. A three-day wait is the most common. In some states, theres no required waiting period.PART LISTENING COMPREHENSIONSECTION A STATEMENT1.

It is true that no pressure, no motivation. But, how about much more pressure? Different people have different views of point. As for me, I firmly think too much pressure in essence prevents people from achieving academic accomplishment rather than do good to us.The causes are obvious. Firstly, in our opening society, people have to acquaint with a vast number of new things so as to obtain better lives, which request them transfering more times from academic studies to other fields, lessening their academic pressure. Secondly, more pressure from academic studies will make people produce mental problems such as stress and qualm, in the long run, which will make academic studies become impossible.Therefore in my opinion, those who would achieve academic accomplishment must not be given more pressure. It is a good academic air that does good to us.SECTION B參考范文Dear Victoria,We write to apologize for having unintentionally neglected to invite you, our close friend, to show up our party.

between；during指“在的期間”。28答案：B【試題分析】本題為動詞詞義及用法辨析題。【詳細解答】rouse意為“喚起”(情感等) ，為短暫性動詞，不與表示時間段的狀語連用；hold與interest搭配，意為“維持，吸引”；have常用于 have interest in sth.；這里是說“一般性的室內運動都不能長久地吸引人們的興趣”，由于這里有一個時間狀語“for long”，說明謂語動詞應該是一個延續性動詞，故選項B為正確答案。29答案：A【試題分析】本題為動詞詞義辨析題。【詳細解答】imitate意為“模仿”，指模仿一事物的特點、功用用于另一事物；adopt意為“采納，采用”；adapt意為“改編，改造”；renovate意為“改革，革新，翻新”。本句意為“起初他試圖模仿一些流行的戶外運動”，因此選項A為正確答案。30答案：A【試題分析】本題為語法題，考查對并列結構的掌握。【詳細解答】由于所填詞前有and，故此部分與前部分(were

peach baskets之后，意為“被固定在體育館兩端十英尺高的臺面上的兩個下空籃框。”35答案： D【試題分析】本題為詞語辨析題。【詳細解答】由于此句中謂語動詞用的是was，主語必須是單數，所以應排除選項A和B。way意為“方式，方法”，

you。43答案：A【參考譯文】他留下命令，在警察到來之前，不得碰任何東西。【試題分析】本題為語法題，考查對虛擬語氣的掌握。【詳細解答】當that從句充當order，command等表示說話人的強烈要求、建議、命令的名詞性從句(賓語從句或同位語從句)時，從句謂語應用“should+動詞原形”或只用動詞原形。故此題應選A。44答案：D【參考譯文】懷特先生在一家化學制品進出口公司工作，但他目前在休假，正在為此次工業展覽會工作。【試題分析】本題為語法題，考查對時態的掌握。【詳細解答】根據句意，謂語應用現在進行時，表示現在正在進行的動作。45答案：C【參考譯文】這位物理學家取得了一項發現，在我看來，這一發現對于科技進步具有十分重要的意義。【試題分析】本題為語法題，考查對非限制性定語從句的掌握。【詳細解答】that一般不引導非限制性定語從句，which與it重復。故答案只能選C。46答案：B【參考譯文】盡管他作出了令人矚目的貢獻，但還是樂于接受來自不同方面的意見。【試題分析】本題考查對習慣用法的掌握。【詳細解答】

或it都是多余的，只有選項D由實義動詞need加不定式的被動式構成，表被動，符合語法及句意。48答案：C【參考譯文】方便時就來看我。【試題分析】本題為語法題，考查對狀語從句的掌握。【詳細解答】whenever引導的時間狀語從句，用一般現在時表將來；同時表示“你方便時”英語中說when it is convenient to you，而不是when you are convenient。故選項C為正確答案。49答案：A【參考譯文】他稱自己為一名醫生，而且作為一名醫生他頗受歡迎。【試題分析】本題為短語用法辨析題。【詳細解答】 as such意為“就以這種身份(或資格)，作為這樣的(人或物)，照此”；such as意為“像那樣的；例如”； so that意為“以便，為了”；沒有as

which，為正確答案。51答案：C【參考譯文】要不是被人叫走，我就會發言的。【試題分析】本題為語法題，考查對虛擬語氣的掌握。【詳細解答】本題主句中的waswere to have done表示“本來要做成某事的(結果卻未做成)”，表示與過去事實相反，if從句中應用had
