答案解析

Section B
Passage One
Pianos are normally found in building for obvious reasons. However, there's one piano in the city in the north of England that has a more unusual home-in the street.
When Nick and Doug were moving into their new house, they couldn't get their piano up the [26]steps because they were too steep. So they ended up leaving the piano on the pavement and all of a sudden they found that local people started to play it, and it very quickly became known as the street piano.
At some point, the council threatened to take it away [27]because they said it was an obstruction to the pavement. Then all the local players were up in arms about it and put notes all over the piano saying, "Please save the street piano".
These are all the messages of support that people have stuck on the piano. One of them says, "Don't get rid of the street piano, [28]it's part of our heritage now. We love you, street piano." And another says, "I find I trip over wheelie bins much more often than pianos. Save the street piano." Some older member of the community says, "I think it's great, I think it's wonderful, as I walk by, young people no more horse around but have a go on it. I think it's a legend in its own lifetime, it's something that is famous and admired during its life."
Nick and Doug thought that they were going to lose it but it looks like they might be able to save their street piano.

Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.
26. Why did Nick and Doug fail to move up the piano to the house?
正确答案：B
解析：短文说，不能把钢琴搬上楼的原因是楼梯太陡了。故答案是B。四个选择是四种描述，根据提示词floor，staircase，passage，tread，初步猜测题目与建筑物的特征有关。原文中出现了step，指的是楼梯台阶，也就对应B中的staircase。
27. What was the reason the council gave to take the piano away?
正确答案：D
解析：短文说，当地议会认为钢琴是人行道上的障碍物，阻碍路人行走。故答案是D。四个选择是四种后果，初步猜测题目与某物引起的麻烦有关。C是强干扰项。但文中pavement（人行道）是不会有car的，因此可排除C。
28. What do the supporters think about the street piano?
正确答案：A
解析：短文说，有人认为钢琴是他们文化遗产的一部分。故答案是A。四个选择是四种判断，初步猜测题目问某物的代表意义。听到什么选什么。
