【解題步驟】
第一步:快速瀏覽各題選項,注意相同或相關詞語的重復出現,推測對話主題。
預覽三道題各選項,由19題可以推測對話與公司刊登招聘廣告或應聘工作有關,而20題則表明對話中還涉及到對所招聘人員的要求。
第二步:按照題目順序,推測問題類型及內容,確定聽音時需要關注的主要信息點。
19題選項均為不定式短語,故問題很可能與某種行為有關。[ A ]、[ C ]是關于招聘工作(interview, advertise),[ B ]、[ D]則是關于申請工作(fill, apply for),故聽音時應首先搞清對話是關于招聘還是應聘,然后注意抓取選項中出現的關鍵詞。
20題選項均為具有不同特點的人才,故可推知本題考查的是對于招聘人員的要求。因此,聽音時應重點關注對人才要求的描述,并留意選項中的關鍵詞語:hard working ,ambitious, good at managing his time , working experience等。
21題選項均是對某事物的評價,而根據specified(具體)和be met(得到滿足)以及對對話主題的猜測,可推測本題很可能是考查對招聘要求的評價或看法。故聽音時應注意那些帶評論性質的詞語或句子。
第三步:集中精力聽對話,抓取關鍵點必要時做適當筆記。
抓取關鍵點:
M: Morning, Brenda.
W: Good morning, Mr. Browning.
M: Er, did you, [19①]did you put that ad in yesterday?
W: Yes, yesterday afternoon.
M: [19②]The ad for a junior sales manager, I mean.
W: Yes, it went into the Standard and the Evening News.
M: That’s good. Erm, well ...
W: What kind of person have you got in mind for this job? M: Oh, well, [20①]somebody fairly young, you know, twenty something, like 21, or 25. [20②]A man, I think.
W: A man?
M: We really need a man for the position. Yes, I mean, its really too demanding. The sort of situations they get into are much too difficult for a young woman to deal with, erm ...
W: Erm, what sort of a young man have you got in mind?
M: Oh, you know, a good education, polite, responsible, and easy to get along with. What I don’t want is one of those young men just out of university, with exaggerated ideas of his own importance.
W: Yes, erm, what sort of education are you actually looking for?
M: Well, you know, a
a couple of A levels. Must have English, of course.
W: Yes, I think [21①] you’re asking quite a lot. I mean you’re not really prepared to pay all ...
M: No, I’m not prepared to give him a big salary to start with. Nevertheless, I want [20③]someone with plenty of ambition, plenty of drive. You know, not looking at the clock all the time.
W: Well sir, I wish you the best of luck and hope you have some very successful interviews.
M: Well, yes?
W: Because personally I think[21②] you’re asking an awful lot.
第四步 :根據提問內容,結合所做筆記,迅速得出答案。
19. What did Mr. Browning ask Brenda to do?
根據原文中did you put that ad in yesterday? 和The ad for a junior sales manager可知Mr. Browning是要求Brenda在報紙上刊登一則招聘廣告。本題只需抓住ad一詞(advertisement的縮寫)即可確定答案為[C]。
20. What kind of person will meet the job requirements?
根據原文中fairly young, plenty of ambition, plenty of drive等關鍵詞可知,招聘者想要尋找的是一個工作努力、有抱負的年輕小伙子,故答案為[A]。
21. What does Brenda think of the qualifications Mr. Browning insists on?
根據原文中女士話中you’re asking quite a lot 以及you’re asking an awful lot可推知她認為Mr. Browning的要求太多太高,不大可能會得到滿足,故答案為[B]。
