unit 1 收得领地Day 14 事实状况题
事实状况题
事实状况题是指根据原文中提供的信息(同义词)寻找相对应的正确答案。在答题之前应分析四个选项相互之间的联系,通过其之间的差异或共性找出线索是解题之妙方。
【例1】 2000.6
M: How are you getting on with your essay, Mary? I’m having a real hard time with mine.
W: After two sleepless nights, I’m finally through with it.
Q: What do we learn from this conversation?
A) The man thought the essay was easy.
B) They both had a hard time writing the essay.
C) The woman thought the essay was easy.
D) Neither of them has finished the assignment yet.
【预测】 选项都提到essay,听时一定注意关于双方essay的看法。
【解析】 两人对话均对这个论文发表意见“having a real hard time(费了九牛二虎之力)”、“two sleepless nights(熬了两个通宵)”,可见两者都觉得论文难写,与B答案相对应。A、C与原文相反。女士说“I’m finally through with it”表示已经写完,故排除D。
