七、對(duì)話中數(shù)字信息處
對(duì)話中出現(xiàn)年代、時(shí)間、價(jià)格等數(shù)字信息的地方,也經(jīng)常被作為長對(duì)話設(shè)題的一個(gè)重點(diǎn),但要注意,一般都是考查與數(shù)字相關(guān)的其他細(xì)節(jié)信息,而單純考查數(shù)字的題目并不常見。
【例5】(樣卷21)
[A] The personnel manager should be fired for inefficiency.
[B]A few engineers should be employed to modernize the factory.
[C]The entire staff should be retrained.
[D] Better-educated employees should be promoted. M: And what's the picture?
W: We'll probably have to hire a couple of engineers to help us modernize the factory.
21. What does the woman suggest about human resources?
【解析】細(xì)節(jié)題。對(duì)話中女士建議hire a couple of engineers(雇傭一些工程師),選項(xiàng)[B]中的a few engineers should be employed與此相對(duì)應(yīng)。
八、對(duì)話中列舉、舉例處
對(duì)話中出現(xiàn)列舉或舉例的地方往往也是出題的重點(diǎn),因此,當(dāng)聽到such as, for example, for instance, the first, the second等一類詞語,應(yīng)加以留意。
【例5】(710分樣卷-Conversation One-20)
[A] It cost muc
h more than its worth.
[B] It should be brought up-to-date.
[C] It calls for immediate repairs.
[D] It can still be used for a long time.
W: Sure. I've been trying to come up with some new production and advertising strategies. First of all, if we want to stay competitive, we need to modernize our factory. New equipment should've been installed long ago.
20. What does the woman say about the equipment of their factory?
【解析】細(xì)節(jié)題。女士說自己提出了一些新的生產(chǎn)和廣告戰(zhàn)略,接著列舉了首要的一點(diǎn)(first of all):設(shè)備需要盡快更新。
九、對(duì)話中推測(cè)處
must, may, can等情態(tài)動(dòng)詞常用于表示對(duì)現(xiàn)在或過去事實(shí)的推測(cè),這些地方常常受到出題人的青睞。
【例5】(新06-6-Conversation One-21)
[A] The woman thinks Mr. Saunders is asking for more than they can offer.
[B]Mr. Saunders will share one third of the woman's responsibilities.
[C]Mr. Saunders believes that he deserves more paid vacations.
[D]The woman seems to be satisfied with Mr. Saunders' past experience.
W: Well, you might just be the person we've been looking for. Do you have any questions?
M: Uh-hum, if I were hired, how many accounts would I be handling?
21. What can we conclude from the conversation?
【解析】推斷題。由女士話中的推測(cè)句式Y(jié)ou might just be the person…可推知,女士似乎對(duì)男士過去的經(jīng)驗(yàn)很滿意。
