Q25.WhatattractspeoplemostintheStrayduringthespringtime?
【答案】A）Thebeautifulflowers.
【解析】细节题。
这句话peoplevisitthetownjusttoseetheflowers为答案依据。
解析：
这段长对话是对Harrogate这个旅游小镇的介绍，谈到其如何得名，如何变迁，以及如何受到政府的保护。
由此可见，这段对话最有可能发生在一个旅游城镇。
这段对话稍微难一点的地方在于几个单词，一个是地名Harrogate，另一个是Stray，以及头衔PresidentoftheChamberofCommerce。
解决这些难点也很容易，因为Harrogate这个地名和头衔不是考察点，考生可直接忽略。
另外关于Stray，考生开始不懂没关系，要带着这个疑问去注意听原文，对话中随后就给出了明确解释，所以考生也会获得解答。
需要提醒考生的是，虽然考试中我们可以忽略一些人名，地名或者无关紧要的细节，这也是为了一时的应试而迫不得已。
在平时练习中，还是建议广大考生多积累这些人文及百科知识，包括一些人名和地名。
积累的多了，以后在任何场合听起来就不会犯难了。
