6.要注意言外之意 对话中的含蓄性试题较多,所以,不仅要理解对话的表层意义,还需体会言外之意。明确要求听懂言外之间的典型问题是:“What does the man/woman mean/suggest?” A)She agrees with the man B)They should ask the typist about it . C)The typist is very good . D)The typist is not good . 对话原文为: M:I think we should replace the old typewriter W: Why not the typist? Q:What does the woman nean ? 男士认为应该更换那台旧打字机,而女士却反问:“为什么不更换打字员?”其言外之意是,问题不在打字机,而是打字员不好,故应选D)。
8.要善于阅读选择项 由于只有大约15秒钟的答题时间,所以在阅读选择项时一定要避免逐词阅读,要运用略读技巧 。对于较短的选择项,一般可采用扫视法;对于较长的选择项,可采用竖读法。 Example 1: A)Running .B)Cycling .C)Fishing .D)Hunting . 只需用眼光掠过选择项,便可知是四种不同的活动。 Example 2: A)A double room B)A single room C)A room on the top floor D)A room on the second floor. 这组选择项虽然稍微长一些,但扫视一下便可以了解它们涉及的内容是“什么样的房间”。 Example 3: A)The worker had finished loading the truck . B)The worker had just started loading truck . C)The worker had gone home . D)The worker had had a fight with the driver .
先整体看这组选择项,可发现:每项的前半部分相同,都是“The worker had ”,再将视线移至后半部分竖读,重点看区别: A)...finished loading the truck. B)...just started loading the truck C)...gone home D)...had a fight with the driver Example 4: A)Her son must leave for school at 7:30 B)Her son must go to work at 7:30 C)Her husband must have breakfast at 7:30 D)Her husband must get to office at 7:30
从整体上看,各项最后一部分相同(at 7:30)并且A)和B)两项前半部分相同(Her son ).C)和D)两项前半部分相同(Her husband ).然后视线移至中部竖读,重点看区别: A)...son leave for school.... B)...son go to work ... C)...husband have breakfast... D)...husband get to office ...
