Conversation 2
W: Did you see that television program on air travel last night?
M: (12) Yes, the part about overcoming jetlag was interesting.I was surprised that the expert recommended not eating for the entire journey and avoiding sleeping on the plane.
W: I was too, as I read an article on the subject in the past that suggested the opposite. It claimed that it was important not to miss meals and that taking a nap on the plane was the best way to adjust to a new time zone.
M: (13) Well, the expert on the show did cite research supporting her recommendations, so I guess I’ll give it a try next time I fly a long distance.Jetlag is a big problem for me and has been for the last few years, even though I never suffered from it before.
W: Well, she did say that jetlag often becomes more of a problem after 40. (14) So I guess I’m lucky that I can still adjust to different time zones well. My problem is I’m afraid to fly.
M: Oh, I didn’t know that. Actually, my mother is terrified of airplanes to the point where she can’t even fly, so our family vacations were always by car or train.
W: I’m not as bad as that. I just get anxious before I fly and feel nervous the whole time we’re in the air, which is why I was hoping the television program would cover that topic more than it did.
M: Yeah, that segment was too brief, especially as so many people have that problem. She said 20% of people are afraid to fly.
W: (15) Actually, it was a quarter of people, so the problem really is widespread and deserves attention.
【答案解析】
12.What part of the TV program does the man say was interesting?
A) The part about getting over jetlag.
B) The part about air travel in the past.
C) The part about not eating on board the plane.
D) The part about avoiding sleeping on the plane.
答案: A) The part about getting over jetlag.
解析: 这是一道细节题。对话一开始，女士问男士是否看了昨晚关于航空旅行的电视节目，男士直接回答：“Yes, the part about overcoming jetlag was interesting.” 这里的“overcoming jetlag”与选项A中的“getting over jetlag”是同义替换。选项C和D虽然是节目中专家给出的具体建议，但男士觉得有趣的是“克服时差”这个部分，而不是具体的建议本身。
13.What does the man say he will do next time he flies a long distance?
A) Take a nap to adjust to a new time zone.
B) Have meals as usual to stay away from hunger.
C) Concentrate on reading articles recommended by experts.
D) Try following the advice given by the expert on the show.
答案: D) Try following the advice given by the expert on the show.
解析:这是一道行为判断题。在男士提到节目中专家的建议（全程不进食、避免睡觉）与他之前读到的文章建议相反后，他表示：“Well, the expert on the show did cite research supporting her recommendations, so I guess I’ll give it a try next time I fly a long distance.” “give it a try”的意思是“尝试一下”，这里的“it”指代的就是“the advice given by the expert”。因此，他打算尝试专家的建议。选项A和B是过去文章中的建议，不是男士将要做的。
14.Why does the woman think she is lucky?
A) She does not have any problem flying.
B) She can spend a lot of time vacationing.
C) She does not have to worry about jetlag.
D) She has been well treated when traveling.
答案: C) She does not have to worry about jetlag.
解析: 这是一道因果关系题。女士在听到男士说时差对他影响很大之后，回应道：“Well, she did say that jetlag often becomes more of a problem after 40. So I guess I’m lucky that I can still adjust to different time zones well.” 她认为自己幸运的原因是，她能很好地适应不同的时区，即她不受时差问题的困扰。这正是选项C表达的意思。注意，虽然她不怕时差，但她怕坐飞机，所以选项A是错误的。
15.Why does the woman think the problem of being afraid to fly deserves attention?
A) It has caused heavy losses to many airlines.
B) It impacts female travelers more seriously.
C) It has long been ignored by many experts.
D) It affects twenty-five percent of people.
答案: D) It affects twenty-five percent of people.
解析: 这是一道细节题，考查对数字的捕捉和同义替换。对话最后，男士提到节目中说20%的人害怕坐飞机。女士立刻纠正他：“Actually, it was a quarter of people, so the problem really is widespread and deserves attention.” “a quarter”即四分之一，等于25%。她认为这个问题值得关注是因为它影响了四分之一的人，非常普遍。选项D中的“twenty-five percent”正是对“a quarter”的同义替换。
【参考译文】
女：你昨晚看那个关于航空旅行的电视节目了吗？
男：看了，那个关于克服时差的部分挺有意思的。专家建议全程不吃东西，还要避免在飞机上睡觉，这让我很惊讶。
女：我也是，因为我过去读过一篇关于这个主题的文章，观点正好相反。那篇文章声称，不要错过用餐很重要，并且在飞机上小睡一会儿是适应新时区的最佳方法。
男：嗯，节目里的专家的确引用了支持她建议的研究，所以我想下次我飞长途的时候会试一试。时差对我来说是个大问题，最近几年一直如此，尽管我以前从未遭受过这种困扰。
女：她确实说过，时差问题在40岁以后往往会变得更严重。所以我想我很幸运，因为我还能很好地适应不同的时区。我的问题是我害怕坐飞机。
男：哦，我不知道这个。其实，我妈妈害怕飞机怕到根本没法坐的地步，所以我们家的假期旅行总是坐汽车或火车。
女：我没那么严重。我只是在飞行前会焦虑，在空中全程都会紧张，所以我本来希望电视节目能多讲讲这个话题。
男：是啊，那个部分太短了，尤其是考虑到那么多人都有这个问题。她说20%的人害怕坐飞机。
女：实际上是四分之一的人，所以这个问题确实很普遍，值得关注。

【听力技巧点拨】
1. 同义替换识别：第12题中，原文用 “overcoming jetlag”，选项用“getting over jetlag”，需识别同义表达。
2. 干扰信息排除：第13题中，女士提到了过去文章的建议（A、B选项内容），但男士决定尝试的是节目中专家的建议，注意区分信息来源。
3. 数字转换：第15题中， “a quarter”= 25% = “twenty-five percent”，需要快速进行分数与百分比的转换。
4. 语气转折：注意女士说的“Actually, it was a quarter of people”，这里的“Actually”表示对前文数据的纠正。
