News Report
One
A New Jersey black bear that walks upright on its two back legs and has become a social media darling has re-emerged and has been captured on video months after its last sighting. The bear named Pedals was spotted in the town of Oak Ridge. In a video posted to Facebook featuring the bear, it appeared to be in relatively good health and was moving quickly. (1)Pedals apparently has an injured leg or paw that doesn’t allow it to walk comfortably on all fours according to experts. Lawrence Hajna,
spokesman for the state Department of Environmental Protection, said officials expect the bear to make it through next winter. (2)The bear first gained fame after it was spotted wandering around neighborhoods and was caught on videos that were posted on social media and shown on national
television. Last year, supporters pushed for Pedals to be moved to a shelter, but New Jersey officials
have said they won’t allow the bear to be captured and transferred to the facility “The bear would do
better in its natural habitat and the agency would step in if its condition deteriorated,” they said. Questions 1 and 2 are based on the news report you have just heard.
未听先知：预览两道题各选项，主语多为 It，结合第 1 题选项中出现的 its audience、catch people’s attention 和 limbs 可知，It 指某个动物，因此本篇新闻容与动物有关；再结合第 2 题选项中出现的 spotted、television、videos
和 social media 等词可知，该动物因某种原因引起了媒体关注。
1. What is the probable reason the bear walks upright on its back legs?
答案：D

News Report Two
It’s not your imagination. Traffic in the US is actually getting worse. (3)Americans drove more
miles last year than any other year on record. The US Department of Transportation says Americans
drove nearly 3,150 billion miles last year. That’s about the same distance as 337 round trips from Earth to Pluto. The previous record was 3,003 billion miles in 2007, before the economic recession
and high gas prices. The traffic increase comes at the same time as gas prices drop significantly. The current average gas price in the US is $1.71 per gallon. A year ago it was $2.31 per gallon and was often much higher in recent years. (4)A transportation expert told the reporter that job growth likely
plays a part as well, along with some people driving longer distances to and from work. And so all this
means more traffic jams on the road. The Texas A&M Travel Institute found that rush-hour travelers spent an extra 42 hours on the road last year because of travel delays. Now, that is depressing.
Questions 3 and 4 are based on the news report you have just heard. 未听先知：预览两道题各选项，由
选项中出现的 distance travelled、road accidents、gas、consumption 和 traffic 等词 可知，本篇新闻与交通有关，可能涉及行车里程、交通状况和耗油量等方面。
3. What new record did the American drivers set last year?
答案：A 详解：新闻开头部分提到，美国人去年的行车里程比以往有记录的任何一年都要多。因此答案为 A。 4.What is depressing according to the speaker?
答案：D
详解：新闻中提到，一位交通专家告诉记者说，工作数量的增长加上人们通勤距离的加长意味着路上会有更多的 拥
堵，德克萨斯州的 A&M 交通协会发现，去年高峰时期由于交通延误，人们在路上要多花 42 个小时的时间，而 这令人很沮丧，因此答案为 D。
News Report Three
（5）A 16-year-old asked a stranger at a grocery store to buy him and his mother some food in exchange for carrying man’s groceries to his car. What happened next will pull at your heartstrings. (6)A wonderful bond formed between the two, and within a couple of weeks, the stranger, named White,
helped raise $190,000 on a website to support the Memphis teenager and his disabled mother. “When Chauncy approached me, it just pulled at my heart,” White said. “Here comes Chauncy, just trying to get food for him and his mom off the grace of other people. When I looked at him and saw what he was doing and what he was asking for, I said he was my hero.” (7) “Chauncy is a top student
who is doing his best to make it in a world with no money and very few resources,” White explained on the crowd funding site. He wants to work and help his mother financially. “It’s so rare that we get an opportunity to affect so much change on one life,” White wrote. “I cannot thank you enough for caring about Chauncy. This is his big chance, and you’re making it possible.” Questions 5 and 7 are based on the news report you have just heard.
未听先知：预览三道题各选项，主语均为 He，由此可知，本篇新闻与某位男士有关。结合第 5 题选项语意以及反 复出现的 stranger 可知，此题考查某男士所做的与一个陌生人有关的行为动作；第 6 题选项中反复出现了 him，而
且通过语义可知 him 与主语 He 为不同的两个人，故此题考查其中一位男士为另一位男士做了什么；第 7 题各选项 均是对某男士的描述，故此题考查有关此男士的细节信息。
