本次考試的短對話部分與六月相比難度大幅下降,大部分短對話依舊可憑借合理的聽前預(yù)讀來確定內(nèi)容主題和可能正確的選項(xiàng)范圍;同時(shí)清晰的感情色彩和上下文語境也能在相當(dāng)程度上幫助考生解題。

難度最高“五星”
11.M: Excuse me, do you have change for a ten-dollar note? I need to pay the parking meter.
W: I’m sorry, but I think you can get it through the money changer in the shopping center across the street.

Q: What is the man trying to do?

解析:
1.答案: A:Get some small changes.
2.難度等級:三星
3.Pre-Listening(預(yù)讀分析):選項(xiàng)均缺少主語,屬于細(xì)節(jié)題+轉(zhuǎn)折題型,預(yù)讀時(shí)已無需關(guān)注句意,直接找相似場景即可;可快速排除B(購物中心)和D(停車)二個(gè)場景唯一的選項(xiàng);答案應(yīng)在A、C當(dāng)中。
4.While-Listening(聽時(shí)重點(diǎn)):重點(diǎn)仍然在女生話語當(dāng)中,典型的"轉(zhuǎn)折"出答案,聽到BUT后由MONEYCHANGER可知男生需要換零錢,C選項(xiàng)雖也和"錢"有關(guān),但其中的銀行只字未提,由此可得答案為A。

12. M: Can you recommend something that a school boy of 7 or 8 will really like?
W: I’d suggest this toy train, sir. It’s an excellent brand. Very popular all over the world these days.

Q: What is the man doing?

解析:
1.答案: B: Buying a gift for a child.
2.難度等級:四星
3.Pre-Listening(預(yù)讀分析):選項(xiàng)均缺少主語,屬于細(xì)節(jié)題+建議題型,預(yù)讀時(shí)已無需關(guān)注句意,直接尋找相似場景即可;可快速排除C,因?yàn)橹挥蠧選項(xiàng)是關(guān)于“出售”(促銷),而其它選項(xiàng)都和“購買”有關(guān);答案應(yīng)在A、B、D中。
4.While-Listening(聽時(shí)重點(diǎn)):女生話語仍具有絕對指導(dǎo)意義,非常簡單的建議考點(diǎn),竟然直接用到了SUGGEST,其后必有答案,女生提到TOY TRAIN和BRAND,加上男生說的SCHOOL BOY,可知答案為
B. 選項(xiàng)D可在聽時(shí)排除,原文中并無任何涉及關(guān)于“還價(jià)”或具體金額的內(nèi)容;A選項(xiàng)中的SON更是無中生有,課堂上反復(fù)為大家強(qiáng)化“切忌主觀猜測,存在才是合理”。
?
13. W: Do you let people know when you’re taking pictures of them?
M: I try not to. You know any picture of a person who poses for the camera would look dull and unnatural.
Q: What are the speakers talking about?
解析:
1.答案: A:Taking photographs
2.難度等級:二星(送分題)
3.Pre-Listening(預(yù)讀分析):選項(xiàng)均缺少主語,屬于細(xì)節(jié)題,預(yù)讀時(shí)已無需關(guān)注句意,直接尋找相似場景即可;可快速排除B、D(均無拍照無關(guān));A、C都和PHOTOGRAPH有關(guān),答案應(yīng)在其中。
4.While-Listening(聽時(shí)重點(diǎn)):第一句由于是女生,需仔細(xì)聆聽,原文提到TAKING PICTURES(拍照),由此確定話題方向,當(dāng)男生話語中未出現(xiàn)任何“修相機(jī)”的內(nèi)容后,可排除C,答案選A。

14. W: I need to talk to someone who knows Baltimore well. I’m told you lived there.
M: Oh, but I was really young at the time
Q: What does the man mean?
?
解析:
1.答案: A:He can provide little useful information.
2.難度等級:四星
3.Pre-Listening(預(yù)讀分析):意義解釋題+轉(zhuǎn)折題型,此類題型答案多為“聽見什么不選什么”。BD為相似項(xiàng),其中應(yīng)有答案,但特征較隱晦;B是“自己提供不了太多有用信息,D就“請他人幫助女士”。
4.While-Listening(聽時(shí)重點(diǎn)):經(jīng)典轉(zhuǎn)折考法,直接用BUT定位答案即可,男生說自己當(dāng)時(shí)還很年輕,言下之意自己對當(dāng)?shù)厍闆r不夠了解,根據(jù)“尾詞錯(cuò)誤原則”,結(jié)尾內(nèi)容聽得越清楚越不能選,還可順利排除A選項(xiàng);本題需要對考生有一定的實(shí)力要求,屬于可“失分”的題目。
?
15. W: Aren’t you disappointed that you didn’t get the promotion?
M: Maybe a little, but I know I need more experience before I’m ready for that kind of responsibility.
Q: What do we learn about the man from this conversation?
?
解析:
1.答案: A:He knows his own limitations.
2.難度等級:三星
3.Pre-Listening(預(yù)讀分析):轉(zhuǎn)折題型,關(guān)注相應(yīng)標(biāo)志詞即可。預(yù)讀四個(gè)選項(xiàng)時(shí)只有B提到了“正面、積極”的方向,可排除。
4.While-Listening(聽時(shí)重點(diǎn)):選項(xiàng)預(yù)讀較難,但本題屬于經(jīng)典轉(zhuǎn)折考法,直接用BUT定位答案即可,關(guān)于A選項(xiàng),課堂上咱們提過BUT出現(xiàn)表示“前否后肯”,由此A也不能選了,何況還是原詞。原文是“承擔(dān)責(zé)任前需要學(xué)習(xí)更多經(jīng)驗(yàn)”,與A選項(xiàng)同義。
?
16. W: I’ve been working out the gym since January. I was a bit out of shape.
M: You look terrific. It seems that your effort has paid off.
Q: What does the man imply about the woman?
?
解析:
1.答案: C:Her gym exercise has yielded good results.
2.難度等級:四星
3.Pre-Listening(預(yù)讀分析):意義解釋題,同義替換是答案;AC為相似項(xiàng),都有關(guān)于“體育鍛煉”并且“為此付出努力”,其中應(yīng)有答案。
4.While-Listening(聽時(shí)重點(diǎn)):聽到女生的OUT OF SHAPE(身材走形)和男生說TERRIFIC(選項(xiàng)核心部位聽見什么不選什么),B選項(xiàng)可排除;結(jié)語的PAID OFF和EFFORT,根據(jù)“尾詞錯(cuò)誤原則”,A、D也不對,進(jìn)而排出C是答案;這題體現(xiàn)了預(yù)讀和聽時(shí)原則排除結(jié)合的最高“境界”。
?
17. W: Professor Clark suggested I get a tutor for advanced physics.
M: Well, that might help. Advanced physics is a pretty difficult course.
Q: What does the man mean?
?
解析:
1.答案: D.The Professor's suggestion is constructive.
2.難度等級:三星
3.Pre-Listening(預(yù)讀分析):建議題型;本題選項(xiàng)預(yù)讀最難,找不出明顯的相反或相似選項(xiàng),聽前可暫時(shí)確定兩組方向A、C(談體育課),B、D(導(dǎo)師提建議)后,待聽時(shí)場景明確后再排除。
4.While-Listening(聽時(shí)重點(diǎn)):又是女生開頭,一定要豎起耳朵聽,果然用到親切的SUGGEST(建議考點(diǎn)),接著說到TUTOR(場景可明確和BD有關(guān),排除AC),再由“選項(xiàng)核心部分聽見什么不選什么”排除B,得到答案D;本題即使水平一般的同學(xué)聽懂也并不難。
?
18. W: Bill, have you heard the latest news? It appears we two won’t be laid off after all.
M: Oh, I’m somewhat tired of working here. I’ve been wondering whether I should resign.? Anyway, the news seems to be good for you.
Q: How does the man feel about the news?
?
解析:
1.答案: A.Indifferent
2.難度等級:三星
3.Pre-Listening(預(yù)讀分析):意義解釋題+“弦外之音”題,同義替換是答案;預(yù)讀時(shí)可排除唯一“積極選項(xiàng)”C。
4.While-Listening(聽時(shí)重點(diǎn)):”話里有話“屬于六級??碱愋停彩撬募壙脊佟懊霘⒔^技”,少有明顯的語言點(diǎn)可以指示答案,需要考生功底語感俱佳才能應(yīng)付自如,屬可“失分”范圍。
