Conversation One W: This is unbelievable! [1] Unlike any video game I’ve ever played before, it’s so boring yet so relaxing at the same time. How did you hear about this driving simulator? M: My brother introduced it to me last year. [2] I was surprised to find how educational and realistic it was. It’s called Euro Truck Simulator, but they have other versions as well for America and so on. I was really drawn to the scenery. The routes go through parts of the country you don’t normally see as a tourist. W: Yeah, I can see that. It seemed so simple, just transporting cargo from point A to point B, driving from one city to another. [3] But I really appreciate all the details that go into the game. It’s even given me a new appreciation for the logistics industry and traffic on the road. M: I completely agree. My brother also introduced me to some videos of someone that streamed their game online. It was fascinating to watch really. This guy drove very carefully, obeyed all the road signs and traffic rules. Such a contrast to most violent games! W: Honestly, playing has inspired me to look into the industry more. I’ve read articles about how self-driving trucks may soon be available and could greatly impact cargo logistics. Considering all that goes into driving these larger vehicles, it’s amazing that we could soon have that kind of technology. M: Ha, I’ve gone one step further. I registered to take a safe-driving course to improve my real-life driving skills. In a way, I feel like I have a head start compared to other students in the class. Playing this video game has given me some maneuvering practices already. W: I’m not sure how accurate the video game is compared to real-life situations. [4] But if it results in more drivers looking both ways before entering an intersection, I’d say that’s a positive outcome.
1. What’re the speakers mainly talking about? 【试题答案】C 【试题解析】题目问的是两位说话人正在谈论的主题。对话开头女士便说道：“这和我以前玩的任何一款电子游戏都不一样”（Unlike any video game I’ve ever played before...），接下来的对话也都是围绕着一款电子游戏（video game）进行展开，因此C选项“电子游戏”正确。A选项“交通路线”和D选项“货物物流”只是与这款游戏的具体内容和设置有关，不是说话人谈论的主题；B选项“驾驶考试”也只是谈话中提到的部分内容，不是谈话主题，因此排除。 2. What does the man say about the driving simulator? 【试题答案】A 【试题解析】题目问关于这款驾驶模拟游戏，男士说了什么？录音中男士提到他惊讶的发现这款游戏既有教育意义（educational），场景又逼真（realistic），A选项中的instructive“富有教育意义的”是对录音中educational的同义替换，而realistic是原词复现，因此A选项正确。B选项“去年他把它（这款游戏）介绍给了他的兄弟”与录音表述恰好相反，应该是男士的兄弟将这款游戏介绍给了他，因此B选项不正确；C选项“他真的被其他版本吸引住了”主要是利用other versions设置干扰，选择主要是错在“drawn（吸引）”一词，这一信息录音并没有提及，因此C选项排除；D选项“这是他在欧洲旅行时买的”在录音中没有提及，因此也可排除。 3. What does the woman say she really appreciates? 【试题答案】B 【试题解析】题目问女士说她真正欣赏这款游戏的哪一点？录音中女士明确表示，她真的很喜欢这款游戏中的所有细节，因此B选项“驾驶模拟游戏中的细节”正确。A选项“物流业的关键作用”，录音中只是提及这款游戏让女士对物流业和道路交通有了全新的认识，并不是女士真正欣赏的地方，因此A选项与题干不符；C选项“从一个城市开车到另一个城市”是女士对游戏内容的描述，与题干不符；D选项“游遍全国”在录音中没有信息表明，因此排除。 4. What outcome does the woman expect from the driving simulator? 【试题答案】B 【试题解析】题目问女士期望这款模拟驾驶游戏能带来什么样的结果？对话最后，女士说：“如果这款游戏能让更多的司机在进入十字路口时多往两边看一眼，那么我会说这是一个积极的结果。”由此可知，女士希望这款游戏能够让更多的司机在开车时多注意交通安全，B选项“更多的人安全驾驶”与录音表述的内容相符，因此正确。A选项“更严格的交通规则”，女士只是说希望开车的人能自觉注意交通安全，并未提及制定严格的交通规则，因此不正确；C选项“更清楚的路标”在录音中没有信息提及；D选项“路上出现更多的自动驾驶卡车”是女士所读过的文章中的观点，并不是女士所期望的结果，因此不正确。
