HSK 5 Practice: 39 Questions, Listening and Explanations

达成

达成共识 is the conventional collocation meaning “reach a consensus.” 制造 means manufacture or create, and 经营 means operate or manage. Neither combines naturally with 共识 here.

不如

与其……不如…… compares two approaches and recommends the second. The sentence favors understanding the logic over merely memorizing answers. 由于 and 至于 do not form this pair.

录入工作减少，长期成本尚不确定

An accurate summary keeps both the observed reduction in repeated entry and the uncertainty about long-term costs. “Zero cost” and “completely ineffective” each replace that balanced conclusion with an unsupported extreme.

减少

减少重复劳动 means reducing unnecessary repeated work, matching the aim of the measure. 欣赏 expresses appreciation and 承认 acknowledgment; neither means lowering the amount of work.

与其

与其……不如…… contrasts alternatives and favors the latter. Here adjusting the workflow is preferred to adding staff temporarily. It does not mean extra staff have already been approved.

有待

有待确定 means something remains to be decided. 难免 means difficult to avoid, while 毕竟 emphasizes an established fact. Neither fits the intended pending decision.

谨慎限制结论范围

The speaker accepts an initial result but limits what it proves about lasting effectiveness. “Cannot assert” does not mean “proven ineffective,” nor does it guarantee long-term success.

效率改善，但仍需评估成本

Keep the benefit, the increased maintenance cost and the decision to observe further. The text neither denies all benefits nor says the system was permanently discontinued.

样本范围有限

A survey of only three schools in one city has limited coverage, so nationwide generalization is not justified directly. That limitation does not establish fabricated data or the absence of schools elsewhere.

整理资料的平均用时减少

The recording reports an average time saving in organizing materials. An average does not mean every participant improved equally, and less time does not mean every cost became zero.

先扩大试点

The report recommends expanding the pilot before deciding whether the effect can be generalized. Neither compulsory nationwide rollout nor permanent abandonment is the stated next step.

趁

趁这个空当 means taking advantage of an available interval. 凭 introduces a basis or credential, and 朝 indicates direction. Neither captures using the brief time before the meeting begins.

一味

一味 criticizes persisting in one approach without considering alternatives. The context explicitly stresses uncritical refusal of new suggestions. 逐项 means item by item, while 相继 means in succession; neither conveys that attitude.

落实

落实 turns an approved plan into concrete action, contrasting with leaving it on paper. 浏览 means skimming or browsing, and 欣赏 means appreciating. Neither describes putting the plan into practice.

以便

以便 introduces the purpose of writing the address clearly: enabling staff to mail the materials. 尽管 expresses concession and 反而 an unexpected opposite result, neither of which fits this purpose relationship.

非但／反而

非但没有……反而…… contrasts an expected improvement with an actual deterioration: waiting was not reduced and queues grew longer. The other pairs express a necessary condition or reasoning from a fact, not a worsened outcome.

按步骤逐步完成

The stages move from paragraph checking to section revision and then formatting. 按步骤逐步完成 preserves that sequence. Simultaneous completion changes the order, while omitting checking removes an explicit stage.

烦请核实附件中的信息，并在方便时回复。

烦请核实……并在方便时回复 states a clear, courteous request without inventing a deadline. Requiring a reply tonight adds an unsupported condition, and treating silence as agreement imposes consent that has not been given.

当前增长不足以保证今后一直增长

The statement limits what current growth can guarantee about the future. It does not deny this quarter’s improvement, but it rules out treating that improvement as proof of permanent success or the disappearance of risk.

忽略了退出者，样本可能有偏差

The sample excludes dropouts, whose experiences may differ. Generalizing from completers to all registrants risks selection bias. The survey does not cover everyone, and nothing establishes satisfaction as the cause of leaving.

公司作出了改善的说法，仍缺公开数据核验

Preserve both attribution and evidence status: the company claims an improvement, but public data are not yet available for verification. Calling it independently proven overstates the evidence; asserting an inevitable increase reverses the unverified claim.

周日取消可免取消手续费

Sunday is before Monday, so cancellation then qualifies as free. Monday cancellation incurs a fee, and absence without cancellation is explicitly non-refundable. Do not turn either exception into a guarantee of a full refund.

借助类比说明先后顺序

The author uses an analogy between roof repair and data preparation to clarify why foundational work comes first. No statistics are supplied, and the comparison does not claim every roof leaks or that charts have no value.

需求增长伴随成本压力，团队调整后继续评估

A complete summary retains higher demand, excessive delivery costs and the decision to adjust the service area before further evaluation. Orders alone do not establish success in every respect, and reducing coverage is not ending all sales.

确认

确认 describes verifying the payment’s arrival after checking records. 承认 emphasizes admitting or acknowledging something, while 辨认 emphasizes identifying an object. The task specifically asks for a judgment established through verification.

推出被延后，之后是否推出仍需决定

暂缓 postpones the launch rather than permanently canceling it. 再决定 leaves the eventual decision open. No definite launch or next-day date is promised, so retain both delay and uncertainty.

下班较晚的观众

The recording explicitly targets visitors who finish work late with the two extra Friday hours. Weekend hours are unchanged, and advance booking remains required, so the other groups are not the stated rationale.

仍须提前预约

仍须提前预约 explicitly preserves the advance-reservation requirement. No annual-pass rule is mentioned, and booking is not restricted to weekends. Track what remains compulsory even while opening hours change.

暂时保持原安排

暂不调整 means weekend hours stay as they are for now. It does not extend Friday’s extra hours to the weekend, cancel weekend opening, or guarantee that the schedule will never change.

综合预约人数、现场反馈和运营成本

The decision combines reservations, visitor feedback and operating costs. The recording explicitly rejects first-week attendance alone as proof of success, and weather is not identified as the deciding factor.

归还循环杯

The deposit is refunded when the reusable cup is returned. A month is the observation period for the trial, not a refund trigger, and a second purchase is not required.

增加两个归还点后继续观察

To address inconvenient returns, the manager will add two return points and observe for another month. The deposit stays unchanged for now, and the trial is not cancelled.

还需要考虑清洗和运输成本

The manager supports reducing waste but also counts washing and transport costs. Disposable-cup use has already fallen, and the deposit has not been abolished.

抽查发现人名错误和否定词遗漏

The editor found two incorrect names and one missing negative word, which can alter meaning. Checking for subtitles obscuring a demonstration does not establish that the images are missing.

可作为初稿，之后还要核对

The editor explicitly accepts the automatic subtitles as a first draft and then specifies checks. A draft can be useful while still requiring verification.

还需要受访者确认，而对方尚未回复

The interviewee must confirm the relevant section and has not replied. A planned date is not completed confirmation, and uncertainty about tomorrow is not cancellation.

新增了菜地，而且天气更干

Two new plots and drier weather are explicitly identified as changes to consider. Total use alone does not prove waste, universal lack of need or pipe damage.

湿润的地先暂停浇水，幼苗按需要照顾

The manager pauses watering on moist ground while keeping care for new seedlings responsive to need. The point is differentiation rather than a uniform increase or stop.

帮助调整安排，但仍需继续观察

The records help guide adjustments, but changing weather and plant growth require continued observation. Useful short-term evidence is not a permanent guarantee.
