例題3:看一個四級的例子,02年12月第10題:
A) She is tired of driving in heavy traffic.
B) She doesn't mind it as the road conditions are good.
C) She is unhappy to have to drive such a long way every day.
D) She enjoys it because she's good at driving.
馬上能判斷出來,對話針對的對象是she,也是我們聽題的重點,有了說話人信息,看看what是關(guān)于什么的呢?A:交通太堵,她不想開車;B:由于路況不錯,她覺得無所謂(馬上判斷這個無所謂的對象應(yīng)該是開車);C:她很不爽是因為每天開車走很長的一段路;D:她喜歡是因為她很擅長開車。在傳播過程中,四個選項中,都在陳述一件事,就是她喜不喜歡開車這件事。A、B都與路況有關(guān)的,A、C在傳達一種負情緒,而剩下兩個選項是正情緒。這個時候,我們無法憑空猜一個答案,但是,卻對這道題中涉及到的問題已然掌握得差不多了。這時再去聽原文,正確率必然大大增加。
例題4:再看一個06年6月長對話的例子:
19. A) To make a business report to the woman.
B) To be interviewed for a job in the woman's company.
C) To resign from his position in the woman's company.
D) To exchange stock market information with the woman.
20. A) He is head of a small trading company.
B) He works in an international insurance company.
C) He leads s team of brokers in a big company.
D) He is a public relations officer in a small company.
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.
我們看這三個選項,由第21題,能夠大致推斷Mr. Saunders在應(yīng)聘The woman的公司的職位。
這樣,19題即可得出B這個正確選項,也就是有了傳播的相應(yīng)五元素,我們可以自由的思考,甚至在沒有聽原文的情況下就可以選擇出正確的答案。
