二，長對話部分
長對話整體出題較為規(guī)整，但也不排除推陳出新的題目，比如第二篇的22題，選項設(shè)置很巧妙。
長對話解題思路：a，邊聽邊標(biāo)記，選項被大部分讀到、少部分替換即優(yōu)選。b，注意邏輯詞提示，如but，however，because，so等。c，注意極端詞提示，如most，only，absolutely，whole，entire等。d，注意語氣語調(diào)語速的變化（這點希望考生再對照答案位置關(guān)注一下原文放音體會一下）。
19. A. Unique descriptive skills.
B. Good knowledge of readers’ tastes.
C. Colorful world experiences.
D. Careful plotting and clueing.
20. A. A peaceful setting.
B. A spacious room.
C. To be in the right mood.
D. To be entirely alone.
21. A. They rely heavily on their own imagination.
B. They have experiences similar to the characters’.
C. They look at the world in a detached manner.
D. They are overwhelmed by their own prejudices.
答案是——
19. D. Careful plotting and clueing.
20. D. To be entirely alone.
21. C. They look at the world in a detached manner.
長對話第一篇原文——
W: When you write a novel, do you know where you’re going, Dr. James?
M: Yes, you must, really, if you’re writing the classical detective story,(19題答案位置，引導(dǎo)詞為because和must，選項重現(xiàn)答案點的原文單詞plot和clue，且在后一句緊接著用but引導(dǎo)的I do plan before I begin writing來再度確認(rèn)選項答案。)because it must be so carefully plotted and so carefully clued. I have schemes. I have charts. I have diagrams. It doesn’t mean to say that I always get it right, but I do plan before I begin writing.But what is so fascinating is how a book changes during the process of writing. It seems to me that creative writing is a process of revelation, really, rather than of creativity in the ordinary sense.
W: When you’re planning the basic structure, do you like to go away to be sure that you’re by yourself?
M:（第20題答案位置，放音此時出現(xiàn)非常明確的語氣強調(diào)，且出現(xiàn)引導(dǎo)詞absolutely和but、completely等表達）I need to be by myself certainly, absolutely. I can’t even bare anybody else in the house. I don’t mind much where I am as long as I’ve got enough space to write, but I need to be completely alone.
W: Is that very important to you?
M: Oh, yes. I’ve never been lonely in all my life.
W: How extraordinary! Never?
M: No, never.
W: （第21題答案位置。用上下兩句對話說明作家的特點。先說明The writer can stand aside from experience and look at it, watch it happening接下來用了一個單詞detachment的重現(xiàn)直指答案They look at the world in a detached manner，其中detached譯為“不帶感情的，超然的”。）You’re very lucky. Someone once said that there’s a bit of ice at the heart of every writer.
M: Yes. I think this is true. The writer can stand aside from experience and look at it, watch it happening. There is this‘detachment’ and I realize that there are obviously experiences which would overwhelm everyone.But very often, a writer can appear to stand aside, and this detachment makes people feel there’s a bit of ice in the heart.
Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
19. What is the key to write a good classical detective story according to the man?
20. What does the man mainly need when working on a book?
21. What does the man say about writers?
關(guān)于邏輯詞提示這一點，我們再看一下這套題目的第二篇長對話開篇——
W: There is an element there about competition then, isn’t there? Because British railways are a nationalized industry. There’s only one railway system in the country. If you don’t like a particular kind of big beans, you can go and buy another.（這是該篇第一道題目第22題答案的位置。正確選項Like it or not, you have to use them，即是從but后方內(nèi)容得到的形象概括。）But if you don't like a particular railway, you can’t go and use another.
M: Some people who write to me say this…
