M: I’ve just got back from the holiday you arranged for me, but I must tell you the hotel was really awful! It was miles from the sea. The food was awful too. The bedroom was dirty.
W: Sorry about that but it’s not really our fault. The contract does say that the hotel accommodation is not our responsibility
Q: Where is the conversation most probably taking place?
M:Now, Miss, do you feel all right now? What happened?
W:Yes, I’m fine now. I was just at the motorway I was driving along the main road when suddenly right before the crossroads I met the car came out at the side street I didn’t see him until he hit me.
Q: Where was the car before it hit the woman?
本题属于较为特殊的地点题,考生不仅要听懂对话发生的地点,而且要能理解I met the car came out at the side street这句语法上有错误的话并推断出在汽车撞上W之前,它正在the side street (A)中。其他选项在对话中都曾出现过,但它们都是描述W本人所在的位置,而非肇事车辆所处的位置。
听力原文真题四:
A) In a court.
B) On the farm.
C) In a bank.
D) In a shop.
W: I just stopped by at your office in the bank. They told me that you had quit where are you working now?
M: I am working for a lawyer now.The pay is better and the work is much more interesting.
Q: Where did the man work before?
答案C)。此题的关键词bank在对话中出现了两次,考生不但可以从女士的话(…at your office in the bank,They told me that you had quit:),也可以从男士的回答(The pay is better than in the bank…)中得出本题的正确答案。而a lawyer 仅仅是一个难度不大的干扰词,考生只要听懂now这一词就可以排B)D)两项与本题对话明显无关。
