　　Day 6 牛刀小試——關(guān)鍵詞類概述

　　關(guān)鍵詞類概述

　　關(guān)鍵詞類，顧名思義，在做這種題型時應(yīng)通過選項來聯(lián)想其相關(guān)詞匯并留意相應(yīng)問題中原文出現(xiàn)的關(guān)鍵信息詞，以及對話中相關(guān)的背景和對話者的語氣口吻來辨析其答案。大致可分為職業(yè)身份題、人物關(guān)系題、地點(diǎn)場景題等三大題型。

　　職業(yè)身份題

　　M: How about the food I ordered? I’ve been waiting for 20 minutes already.

　　W: I’m very sorry, sir. I will be back with your order in a minute.

　　Q: What’s the woman’s job?

　　A) A shop assistant B) A telephone operator

　　C) A waitress D) A clerk

　　【解析】 在原文播放之前，應(yīng)擴(kuò)展聯(lián)想到有關(guān)shop assistant、telephone operator、waitress、clerk四種職業(yè)的詞匯如(food, order, number, shop, hotel等)，為選擇正確答案作好充分準(zhǔn)備。抓住原文中關(guān)鍵信息詞order、wait，可推斷出場景發(fā)生在餐廳，女士談話的語氣和用詞“sorry sir”來分析其職業(yè)為服務(wù)員。選擇C。

　　人物關(guān)系題

　　W: I often mistake Tim for Bob. Can you tell them apart?

　　M: No, they look so much alike that they even confused their mother sometimes when they were young.

　　Q: What is the probable relationship between Tim and Bob?

　　A) They are twins B) They are classmates

　　C) They are friends D) They are colleagues

　　【解析】 你的腦海中是否對twins、classmates、friends、colleagues積累了足夠的信息詞匯尤其重要(alike, homework, job等)。女士經(jīng)常把Tim 和Bob認(rèn)錯，并問男士有什么區(qū)別(apart)，抓住男士回答的信息詞look alike、their mother不難判斷其關(guān)系是雙胞胎。所以答案是A。

　　地點(diǎn)場景題

　　M: Oh, dear! I’m starving, I can’t walk any farther. (2001.6)

　　W: Let’s go to the restaurant across the street and get something to eat.

　　Q: Where are the two people?

　　A) At home B) In a restaurant

　　C) In a car D) On the street

　　【解析】 注意選項中的有關(guān)home、restaurant、car、street關(guān)鍵詞匯來判斷正確答案。原文中的walk, across the street是本題的關(guān)鍵信息詞，所以選擇D。同樣提到的starving、restaurant是他們將要去的地方(小陷阱咯!)，而不是現(xiàn)在的所在處。
