2013年12月英語四級(jí)聽力長(zhǎng)對(duì)話答案：長(zhǎng)對(duì)話1（滬江網(wǎng)校版）

【四級(jí)聽力長(zhǎng)對(duì)話原文1】

M: Excuse me, I need some information about some of the towns near here.

W: What would you like to know?

M: Well, first, I'd like directions to go to Norwalk. I believe there is an interesting museum there. It isn't far, is it?

W: No, not at all. Norwalk is about eighteen miles east of here on Route 7. And you're right. It's a wonderful little museum.

M: Oh good. Now what about Amitsville? I have some friends. I'd like to visit there and I also want to get to Newton. They are near each other, aren't they?

W: Hmm... well, they are actually in opposite directions. Amitsville is northeast. It's about thirty five miles northeast of here.

M: Huh-uh, thirty five miles northeast. And how about Newton?

W: Well, Newton is in the other direction. It's southwest, so it isn't really very close to Amitsville at all and it's a long drive. It's about fifty five miles southwest from here and the road is not at all straight.

M: Fifty five miles southwest! Well, maybe I won't go there this time.

W: I'd recommend visiting Westfield or Great Town. They are both very close. Westfield is just seven miles west of here and Great Town is about five miles south. They are really pretty little towns with lots of old houses and beautiful tree-lined streets.

M: I see. Seven miles west to Westfield and five miles south to Great Town. Good. Well, I think that's all the information I need for a while. Thank you. You've been very helpful.

W: You're welcome, sir. I hope you enjoy your stay.

【點(diǎn)評(píng)】

該對(duì)話屬于比較常見“問路”話題。因此考生在考試中聽到開頭一兩句之后可以在草稿紙上畫一個(gè)東西南北的方位箭頭圖，中心點(diǎn)是男士所在的地方。這樣聽到后面介紹其它景點(diǎn)時(shí)，可以立刻在相應(yīng)方位把地名縮寫和距離數(shù)字很快記下。避免聽到很多不同地名和數(shù)字時(shí)候頭腦一片混亂。

三個(gè)問題都是考查事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)。但沒有考查Norwalk，Amitsville and Newton，Westfield and Great Town這幾個(gè)地方的具體距離及位置，因此題目比較容易。因此該話題備考一方面有意識(shí)記下數(shù)字和方位以防萬一考查具體點(diǎn)，另一方面要注意理解對(duì)話的中出現(xiàn)的一些中心句。如“…they are actually in opposite directions.”
