【聽前預測】
預覽三道題各選項,由medical care(醫療護理), hospitals, 以及therapists(治療專家)可推測本文可能與醫療工作有關;而由special education(特殊教育),disabled(殘疾的)和handicapped(殘疾的)可推測本文還可能與殘疾人特殊教育有關,但12、13題各選項并沒有涉及到任何有關教育的問題。因此綜合來看,本文主題很可能是關于殘疾人的醫療工作。
11.四個選項均是某一學科領域,由前面對主題的分析可推斷本題答案為[B]Medical care的可能性較大,聽音時再確認具體是哪個領域。
12.選項特點表明本題很可能是關于影響“她”做某種決定的因素(friends and relatives, parents, training, determination)。聽音時主要判斷是來自“誰”的因素。
13.選項均為不定式形式,表明本題很可能是考查某事的目的或原因。[A]是有關資金問題,偏離主題,不大可能為答案。聽音時需留意以下要點:help disabled children;train therapists;set institution for handicapped。
