托福听力PartA:短对话4

分类: TOEFL托福英语 
(6)语气

语气题,在听力的短对话中出现得最多,也比较难。比如如题目中A说: They don't know the news yet. B说:They don't?就这么多。这时题目问what does B imply?答案是:He is surprised that they don't know the news.对付这类题目最好的办法就是多练些题目,同时体会说话的语调,来判断是肯定语气还是否定语气。

?1999年1月听力题

M:Have heard the news? The manager posted this month's work schedule.

W:She did? Where?

Q: What does the woman ask?

(A)swheresthe manager is.

(B)swheresshe will be working this month.

(C)swheresshe can find the work schedule.

(D)swheresthe man heard the news.?答案是C.

第二个人的第二个问“where?”已经肯定了“she did posted this month's work schedule”。只是不清楚“where she posted this month's work schedule”,而不是选项D中的“where the man heard the news”。

(7)相似发音

一些音近的词,如题目中有remember一词,答案中的干扰选项中有number, member这两个词,听起来有点像。如果听的时候不是很仔细,就容易出错。对付这类题目的方法是熟悉出题的思路,如你知道音近是托付出题的一个考点,那就在心里有根弦,这样陷阱倒反成了很明显的标志,然后知道这类题目通常的答案是用一个短语来解释一个词如上面讲的这道题,答案选一个包含有。not forget.短语的选项,而那些含有音近词的选项都是错的。请看下面一道例题:

M: That's an awfully heavy sweater for a day like today.

W: Well, I'm going to be at a lecture in the auditorium most of this morning. And you know what the air conditioning is like in there.

Q: What does the man imply?

(A) No one will be able to see what he is wearing.

(B) It is cool in the lecture hall.

(C) He expects the weather to change later in the day.

(D) The weather is heavily polluted today.?答案是A.选项C和D都出现了与sweater音近的词weather.其中选项D更容易让考生混淆,因为它里面含有heavily和today与对话中的第一句很像。

(8)地点(场景)

地点,考一些常见的动作的发生的地点,这个又叫场景题,主要是看对各个场景的熟练程度。

W: I need the receipt for the book insgroupsto exchange it.

M: All right. Here you are.

Q:swheresdoes the conversation most likely take place?

(A) In a bookstore

(B) In an apartment

(C) In a classroom

(D) In a library?答案是A.

这里,第一个人的话有两个词,receipt(收据)和exchange说明了他们应该在商店里。名词book也证实了这个答案。
