大学英语四六级高分备考方略

这类题的关键词是：be caught in a traffic jam, the rush hour, flat tire, break down, traffic accident, behind schedule, due等。

W: I'm sorry, sir. The train is somewhat behind schedule. Take a seat, and I'll tell you as soon as we know something definite.

M: Thank you. I'll just sit here and read a magazine in the meantime. Q: What can we conclude about the train from the conversation? A. The train is crowded. B. The train is late. C. The train is empty. D. The train is on time. 本题的关键是behind schedule. 请求或建议。

表示请求的句型一般有：Can you…? Would you…? Would you mind …?

表示建议的句型一般有：If I were you, I'd … Shall we…? Why not…? Perhaps we should…. It would be better if…How about …?

M: Can I use your new car, Auntie?

W: Yes, of course, if you drive it carefully. Q: What's the aunt's answer?

A. She agrees to lend him the car. B. She offers him the car.

C. She refused to lend him the car. D. She is pleased to lend him the car.

本题的关键是Yes, of course,虽然后面又附加了条件if you drive it carefully. 释义、替换或上下义。

该类对话的选项中会用单词替换或解释对话人表达的意思，同时考查听力和词汇。 W: Have you finished reading my research report? I put it on your desk last week. M: Yes, but you have to revise some parts of it, if you want to get it published. Q: What does the man suggest that the woman should do? A. Put her report on his desk.

B. Read some papers he recommended. C. Mail her report to the publisher. D. Improve some parts of her paper.

本题的关键是理解revise的同义词是improve. M: Nancy, why were you late today? W: I overslept and missed the bus. Q: Why was Nancy late? A. She got up later than usual. B. The bus was late.

C. She forgot she had class. D. Her clock was slow.

overslept也就是got up later than usual。

有些题尽管问题可能问的是含义之类，但其实考查的是同学们对上下义关系的掌握。如： M: Let me see. I've printed my family name, first name, date of birth and address. Anything else? W: No, that's all right. We'll fill in the rest of it if you just sign your name at the bottom. Q: What has the man been doing?

A. Having an interview. B. Filling out a form.

C. Talking with a friend. D. Asking for information.

上义词为概括性词语，下义词所表示的则是具体的东西。本题中能够概括男士所做之事的应该是选项B。

人物对某件事物的观点或态度，或考生从对话中能获得什么信息或结论。 该类的题难度较大，类型也比较繁多复杂。需要考生全面理解对话内容。 What does the man mean (imply) ?

What does the woman's answer suggest? What can we learn from the conversation?

What can be concluded from this conversation?

W: You seem to have a lot of work to do at your office. You're always staying late and working overtime. M: That's true. But it's no bother to me. The work is interesting. I don't mind working extra hours at all. Q: How does the man feel about his job? A: He enjoys it very much.

B: He doesn't care much about it.

C: He doesn't mind even though it's tedious. D. He hates working overtime.

本题的关键是The work is interesting.

询问对方的观点和态度问题中有一大类是含有虚拟语气的。该类型一直是热门考点。这就要求同学们了解虚拟语气的表意功能，根据虚拟语气判断正确选项。如：

W: I'm thinking of going to Austin for a visit. Do you think it's worth seeing? M: Well, I wish I had been there.

Q: What do we learn from the conversation? A. The man is planning a trip to Austin. B. The man has not been to Austin before. C. The man doesn't like Austin.

D. The man has been to Austin before.

I wish I had been there.说明说话人没有去过。 含\的题型
