　　在英語口語當(dāng)中也有類似與咱們漢語的成語、諺語和習(xí)慣短語，往往也出現(xiàn)在英語四級聽力考試?yán)锩妫忌柙谄綍r(shí)英語學(xué)習(xí)過程中積累一些英語諺語和習(xí)慣短語，對西方文化、風(fēng)俗要有一定的了解，做好充分的準(zhǔn)備，這類題就好搞定了。

　　英語口語中經(jīng)常出現(xiàn)的諺語和習(xí)慣短語：

　　Wild horse couldn’t keep me away. 野馬也擋不住我——非去不可。

　　【預(yù)測】 四個選項(xiàng)都是在描述woman，所以女士的話很關(guān)鍵。注意聽辨。

　　【解析】 男士說教授很忙，女士沒有直接回答，而是說早知道就不麻煩他了，言下之意，就是不應(yīng)該去打擾他，所以選B。其他選項(xiàng)都不符。

　　【預(yù)測】 從D選項(xiàng)中透露出的關(guān)鍵詞professor說明該題有可能是學(xué)校上課的場景，注意回憶該場景的單詞。

　　【解析】 女士問男士當(dāng)被教授點(diǎn)名時(shí)是否緊張，男士未做正面回答，而是說聽說被叫到時(shí)在發(fā)抖，言下之意，就是緊張和害怕，故選A。
