考查技能：听出具体信息
场 景：关于电影发展史的讲座
场景背景介绍
本节开头部分并没有直接提到电影，而是提出一个问题：马在奔跑的时候四蹄是否有同时离地的时刻。后来一个摄影师把全过程用照相机拍下，然后又把所有的照片制作成连续的影像，终于揭开了谜团。从此，人们开始考虑是否能以此为基础做出动态影像的影片。爱迪生成了这一想法的最终实施者。这种技术传到欧洲之后又得到了改进，例如设备变轻，加入声效等，这使得当时的电影制作难度大大增加。
文本及疑难解析
1. To set the bet, a photographer was asked to photograph a horse galloping and the bet was settled because you could see that all the hooves were off the ground in some of the photos.为了解决这个赌注问题，一个摄影师被要求拍摄马奔跑时的照片。最终打赌的结果被弄清楚了，因为可以看到在某些照片上马蹄是完全离开地面的。
2. Actually, he didn't do the work himself but rather asked a young Scotsman in his employ to design a system, which he did.事实上，他并没有自己去做，而是让他雇用的一个年轻的苏格兰人设计了这个系统。employ在本句中为名词。
3. Now this young fellow was clever because the first thing he did was study other systems—primitive as they were—of moving pictures and then put all the existing technologies together to make the first entire motion picture system.这个年轻人非常聪明，因为他做的件事情就是学习其他的动态影像系统。从他们最原始的状态学起，然后融合现有的技术，制作出来个动态影像系统。
4. A continuing problem at the time was that the films had a tendency to break when they were being played... 那时一个始终未能解决的问题是，在放映的过程中，胶片非常容易断裂。film在本句中为“胶片”。
5. I guess the next big step in terms of development of technology was to have people actually talking on the film, and the first step towards this was in 1926 when sound effects were first used on a film.我认为，接下来在技术上的重大发展是让人们在电影中能说话，而这在1926年声效在电影中被运用之后得以实现。
6. It wasn't until the following year however that the first ‘ talkie', as they were called then, was made.然而直到第二年电影才有了声音。
题目解析
31～37题为选择题。选择题的难点在于读题时信息量比较大，因此读题时应只读题干，标出核心词。本部分题目必须建立在听懂原文的基础上。34题为难题，原文中提到了heard about，但考生做题时容易紧张，导致凭主观判断认为欧洲人借用了美国人的技术。35题容易误判断C为正确答案，但要注意这一部分原文中提到的始终是French。
38～40题为完成句子。38题不难得到答案，但很容易出现拼写错误。39和40题没有难度，可以直接用核心词定位得到答案。
