經(jīng)典考題:

　　 例1:2003年6月真題

　　 8.[A]Do the assignments towards the end of the semester.

　　 [B]Quit the history course and choose another one instead.

　　 [C]Drop one course and do it next semester.

　　 [D]Take courses with a lighter workload.

　　 原文:M:Mr.Smith,our history professor,announced we would be doing two papers and three exams this semester.I wonder how I'm going to pull through when two other courses have similar requirements.

　　 W:Well,can't you drop one course and pick it up next semester?

　　 Q:What does the woman suggest the man do?

　　 答案:C

　　 解析:通過選項的內(nèi)容可知該題就校園場景中有關(guān)選課、退課的內(nèi)容提問。女士的話can't you drop one course and pick it up next semester是答案信息點,can't you用來引出建議。選項C中,do it 即原文中pick it up的同義替換。

　　 例2:2002年6月真題

　　 1.[A]Registering for courses.[B]Getting directions.

　　 [C]Buying a new computer.[D]Studying sociology.

　　 原文:W:The deadline for the sociology and computer courses is the day after tomorrow.

　　 M:But I haven't decided which courses to take yet.

　　 Q:What are the man and woman talking about?

　　 答案:A

　　 解析:該題涉及校園場景中選課這一論題。注意短語register for的意思是“注冊(一門課程),選(課)”,是男士答語中take一詞的同義替換。

　　 例3:2002年1月真題

　　 7.[A]The deadline is drawing near.[B]She can't meet the deadline.

　　 [C]She turned in the proposals today.[D]They are two days ahead of time.

　　 原文:M:When are we supposed to submit our project proposals,Jane?

　　 W:They are due by the end of the week.We've only two days left.We'll just have to hurry.

　　 Q:What does the woman mean?

　　 答案:A

　　 解析:注意due有“到期”的意思,此外We've only two days left.We'll just have to hurry.同樣在提示“截止期限臨近了”,故A正確。

　　 例4:2009年12月真題

　　 14.[A]They were both chairpersons of the students' union.

　　 [B]They have known each other since their schooldays.

　　 [C]They are going to hold a reunion party.

　　 [D]They have been in close touch by email.

　　 原文:W:I received an email yesterday from Henry.Do you remember he was one of the chairpersons of our students' union?

　　 M:Yes,but I haven't heard from him for ages.Actually,I have been out of touch with him since our first reunion after graduation.

　　 Q:What do we learn about the speakers?

　　 答案:B

　　 解析:該題屬于校園場景中與學生會有關(guān)的內(nèi)容。but I haven't heard from him for ages.Actually,I have been out of touch with him since our first reunion after graduation是答題的關(guān)鍵,其中out of touch的意思是“失去聯(lián)系”,first reunion after graduation意為“畢業(yè)后第一次重聚”,這說明兩個人的關(guān)系可以追溯到學生時期(schooldays),所以B項“他們從學生時期就認識對方了”正確。另外,大家會注意到A、C、D三項的大部分單詞或短語都出現(xiàn)在了聽力原文中,這正是“視聽反向”的解題思路,這一點將在之后的內(nèi)容中繼續(xù)講解。

　　 例5:2002年12月真題

　　 10.[A]Selecting the best candidate.

　　 [B]Choosing a campaign manager.

　　 [C]Trying to persuade the woman to vote for him.

　　 [D]Running for chairman of the Student Union.

　　 原文:M:You are my campaign manager.What do you think we should do to win the election? I'm convinced I'm the best candidate for the chairman of the Student Union.

　　 W:We won't be able to win unless you get the majority votes from the women students.

　　 Q:What is the man doing?

　　 答案:D

　　 解析:這道題與競選學生會主席有關(guān)。從what do you think we should do to win the election“你認為我們?nèi)绾尾拍苴A得競選”、the best candidate for the chairman of the Student Union“學生會主席最佳候選人”,以及get the majority votes from the women students“獲得女生的多數(shù)選票”來判斷,男士此刻正在參與學生會主席的競選。

　　 例6:2011年6月真題

　　 13.[A]Mark is not fit to take charge of the Student Union.

　　 [B]Mark is the best candidate for the post of chairman.

　　 [C]It won't be easy for Mark to win the election.

　　 [D]Females are more competitive than males in elections.

　　 原文:W:Mark is the best candidate for chairman of the Student Union,isn't he?

　　 M:Well,that guy won't be able to win the election unless he gets some majority vote from women students.And I'm not sure about that.

　　 Q:What does the man mean?

　　 答案:C

　　 解析:同例5相似,這道題也是關(guān)于學生會主席的競選。通過男士的話進行語義推斷,won't be able to win the election unless he gets some majority vote from women students“除非能得到女學生的多數(shù)選票,否則他很難在競選中獲勝”,and I'm not sure about that是指“我也不確信他能否獲得女生的多數(shù)選票”。于是推斷出男士的意思是“Mark要贏得這場競選并不容易”。
