Question 5 is based on the news report you have just heard.

​​​​​​​听力原文

    (5) [A Philippine fisherman was feeling down on his luck when a house fire forced him to clear out his possessions and change locations.] Then, (6) [a good luck charm that he had kept] under his bed changed his life.

    The unidentified man had fished out a giant pearl from the ocean when his anchor got stuck on the rock while sailing off a coastal island in the Philippines 10 years ago.

    (6) [When he was forced to sell it, ](7) [the shocked tourist agent at Puerto Princesca told him that the 77-pound giant pearl that he had kept hidden in his run-down wooden house was the biggest pearl in the world, which was valued at £76 million.]

    The pearl of Allah, which is currently on display in a New York museum, only weighs 14 pounds. That is 5 times smaller than the pearl that the fisherman just handed in.

    The monstrous pearl, measured at 1 foot wide and 2.2 feet long, is going to be verified by local experts and international authorities before hopefully going on display to attract more tourists in the little town.

5. What happened to the Philippine fisherman one day?

解析：B。根据选项中的possessions were stolen、house was burnt down、fishing boat got wrecked、sank into the sea等词可推测出，题目有可能询问发生了什么不好的事，听音时需要留意录音中有关不幸经历的描述。录音开头提到，一名菲律宾渔民垂头丧气地感叹自己时运不济，因为房屋失火迫使他清理自己的财物，准备搬家。由此可知，这名渔民的房子在火灾中被烧毁了。B项表述与此一致，其中house和fire为原词复现，故正确答案为B。

错项排除：A项利用录音中出现的possessions进行干扰，但录音说的是，由于房屋发生火灾，这位渔民不得不清理自己的财物（possessions），并没有说他的财产被偷，故A项错误。录音中提到了got stuck on the rock，但说的是船的锚卡在了礁石上，并不是渔船在岩石上撞毁了，故C项错误。D项利用录音中的good luck charm进行干扰，但录音只是说它改变了渔民的生活，并没有说它沉入了大海，故D项错误。
