20111217聽力短對話:“場景”制勝

來源:文都四六級命題研究中心 (文都 徐可風(fēng))

總體上,本次四級考試的短對話語句并不長,所牽涉到的詞匯多屬于歷年真題中反復(fù)考到過的重要場景詞,所以總體難度上與往屆考試基本持平。一言以蔽之,短對話的制勝之道在于“場景”。尤其是文都課堂上我們反復(fù)提到的常考場景。下面舉幾個這次四級真題的例子。

一、車站場景

11.? W: This crazy bus schedule has got me completely confused. I can’t figure out when my bus to Cleveland leaves??

M: Why don’t you just go to the ticket window and ask??

Q: What does the man suggest the woman do??

點(diǎn)評:涉及到解題的重點(diǎn)場景詞匯,如bus schedule,ticket window,這些在文都聽力課堂上都反復(fù)提到。

二、趕車/飛機(jī)場景

13.? W: Airport, please. I’m running a little late. So just take the fastest way even if it’s not the most direct.?

M: Sure, but there is a lot of traffic everywhere today because of the football game.?

Q: What do we learn about the woman from the conversation??

點(diǎn)評:涉及到解題的重點(diǎn)場景詞匯,如Airport,take the fastest way并不陌生。

三、就餐場景

14.? W: May I make a recommendation, sir? Our seafood with this special sauce is very good.?

M: Thank you, but I don’t eat shellfish. I’m allergic to it.?

Q: Where does this conversation most probably take place??

點(diǎn)評:涉及到解題的重點(diǎn)場景詞匯,如seafood,make a recommendation。

四、應(yīng)聘招聘場景

15. W: now one more question if you don’t mind, what position in the company appeals to you most??

M: Well, I’d like the position of sales manager if that position is still vacant.?

Q: What do we learn about the man??

點(diǎn)評:涉及到解題的重點(diǎn)場景詞匯,如position in the company,the position of sales manager,vacant在文都課堂上都提到過。

五、天氣場景

18. W: This picnic should beat the last one we went to, doesn’t it??

M: Oh, yeah, we had to spend the whole time inside. Good thing, the weather was cooperative this time.?

Q:What do we learn about the speakers from the conversation?

點(diǎn)評:涉及到解題的重點(diǎn)場景詞匯,如the weather was cooperative,picnic。

一言以蔽之,對“場景”的掌握程度,決定著短對話的分?jǐn)?shù)。(文都 徐可風(fēng))
