托業(yè)聽力PartA:短對話(2)
    在這一部分,你將首先聽到兩個人的對話,然后是一個問題,問題通常是關于第2個說話人的comment的。下面是這一部分??嫉目键c。有時一道題中有不止一個的考點。詞匯純粹的單詞量測試,但通常不是難詞(大學四級或以下單詞)。比如題干中聽到形容詞terrific,那么包含terrific的同義詞excellent或者very good的選項就是正確答案。也就是說,不僅要認識關鍵詞也要知道它常用的同義詞。不過,這種題大多比較容易。因為這些詞匯都很常見。
    1999年1月聽力題
    W: Why are you leaving so early? The movie doesnt start till seven。
    M: I dont want to be at the traffic there。 Its a nightmare on the expressway during rush hour。
    Q: What does the man mean?
    (A) He wants to go early to avoid a traffic jam。
    (B) He wants to leave the theater before the movie is over。
    (C) He doesnt know the way to the theater。
    (D) He doesnt usually get up at 7:00。
    答案是A。這里整個對話都在講時間問題,關鍵詞是traffic(交通)。其實,即使你不認識或者不十分確定它的意思,你也可以通過dont want to和avoid之間的同義轉換選出正確的答案?,?BR>    1999年1月聽力題
    W:If George misses one more meeting we are going to have to find one new committee secretary。M:Wed better give him an ultimatum。
    Q: What does the man suggest they do?
    (A) Remove George from the committee immediately。
    (B) Warn George that his attendance problem is serious。
    (C) Offer to help George during the meeting。(D) Telephone George to see if hes coming to the meeting。?
    答案是B。
    如果你認識并聽懂ultimatum是最后通牒的意思的話,你輕而易舉就能選出它的同義轉換warn sb about sth(警告)。而第一句同樣說明了George是個不太稱職的secretary,但卻用are going to將來時說明并非要remove George form the committee immediately
