4、訂房訂票總是定不上
在聽(tīng)力的小對(duì)話(huà)中總是有一些不盡如人意的情況發(fā)生,只要留心就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)處處體現(xiàn)出來(lái)“sorry”(遺憾)的情形。比如訂房訂票無(wú)論在四級(jí)還是在六級(jí)里面總是買(mǎi)不到,定不上。

Test 10 no 1

05年6月 No 6
M: Hurry up, Linda! I hear that there aren't many tickets left for the football match.
W: I am ready now. Let's go. It is the early bird that catches the worm.
Q: Why did the man ask the woman to hurry up?
解題:
第一個(gè)男人說(shuō)hurry up不是很清楚,但是原因卻是非常清楚的一句:I hear that there aren't many tickets left for the football match,得趕緊去買(mǎi)票啊,這是一種隱含的因果關(guān)系。
5、男生對(duì)于比賽(如足球賽等)永遠(yuǎn)狂熱
從任何一個(gè)學(xué)生的角度去考慮這都是一個(gè)非常正常的思維,在聽(tīng)力小對(duì)話(huà)里面出現(xiàn)的比賽總會(huì)受到男生極大的關(guān)注。如果比賽和其他活動(dòng)(比如concert)沖突,男生一定會(huì)選擇看比賽,如果比賽沒(méi)有看成,則有可能是生病了。
