对话中的信息词Dean’s office 与选项A 中宾语Dean 相同,根据问题,显然A 是正确答案。
例3:You read:
A. Table tennis. B. Basketball.
C. Tennis. D. Football.
You hear:
M: What sports are popular in your country?
W: Football is very popular and school children like basketball. But I like
table tennis best.
Q: What was the woman’s favorite sport?
只要抓住关键句But I like table tennis best. 并且了解like…best 与favorite…有相同的意思,马上可以断定A是正确答案。
例4:You read:
A. It needs more stamps.
B. It is too heavy to carry.
C. She should return it to the postman.
D. She should take it to the post office.
从选项看,这一题十有八九与邮政有关,但究竟是与其中哪一方面有关呢? 请看录音原文:
W: This letter was returned to me.
M: That’s because you didn’t put enough postage on it.
Q: What did the man tell the woman about the letter?
要正确解答这道题,抓住最关键的一个词postage 即可。由“邮资”想到“邮票”,就会选择A 为正确答案。
l 语义题
语义题较以上四种题型是最难的一种。语义题分为两种:直接型和含蓄型。
直接型:
这种题型较含蓄型容易些,因为录音原文中使用的措词和选项中的措词相同或相近,通过录音原文可直接在选项中选出正确答案。
例1:You read:
A. He refused to drive her. B. He is glad to drive her.
C. He forgot his driver’s license. D. He has got a new car.
这四个选项均与drive 和car 有关,其中A与B表示的恰好是相反的意思。一般说来,A或B是正确答案的可能性比另两项大些。听录音时,重点可以放在它们上面。
You hear:
W: Jack, would you mind driving me to the station?
M: Sure, why not.
Q: How does Jack respond to the question?
最关键信息在男士 的答话中,即sure一词。显然他是非常乐意送女士去车站,因此,正确答案是B。
例2:You read:
A. The party lasted all night B. She didn’t go to Susan’s.
C. She didn’t like the party. D. The party was put off.
You hear:
M: Did you have a good time at Susan’s party last night?
W: We didn’t get there.
Q: What does the woman mean?
仅仅从四个选项看,A、C 和D选项均与party有关,而B则没有。因此,似乎B是正确答案的可能性较小。而关键的信息句——女士的答话的措词恰恰与B选项的措词接近,所以,正确答案就是B。
例3:You read:
A. He’ll play the game. B. He won’t watch the game standing.
C. He’ll watch the game on TV. D. He has little knowledge of the game.
You hear:
