2010年6月英语四六级听力长对话高分必备

　　M:…, rebel forces are also using heavy artillery to pound the positions of government forces around the city center. Rebel forces are closing in, …

　　M: … this war-torn country …, but that is always a concern if this war lingers on.

　　22.What is the news coverage mainly about?

　　【答案解析】

　　选[A]。主旨题。主旨题的答案往往在开头或结尾，而本题的答案即出自开头的第一句。选项中的latest(最新的)对应该句中的live up-to-date(最新直播)，armed rebellion(武装叛乱)对应unrest(动乱)。另外，对话的主题往往会得到多次重复，因此根据后面多次出现的rebel forces, conflict, war等与“叛乱”相关的词语，也可判断本题答案为[A]。

　　四、同义复现必出

　　正确选项往往与原文相似，或是原文的同义表达，因此应注意提取选项中的关键点，在听音时留意其是否与原文同意并加以记录。

　　【例4】(四六级考试委员会样题-25题)

　　【选项】

　　[A] Inadequate medical care.

　　[B] Continuing social unrest.

　　[C] Lack of food, water and shelter.

　　[D] Rapid spreading of the epidemic

　　【原文重现】

　　W: … what other pressing concerns are there for the citizens of the city?

　　M: Well, since the beginning of the conflict, starvation, and lack of clean water and adequate shelter have been the biggest daily obstacles facing the citizens of this war-torn country.

　　25. What is the pressing concern of the citizens of Karnack?

　　【答案解析】

　　选[C]。细节题。四个选项中只有[C]项内容在对话中出现，其他三项均未涉及到，故只要抓住对话中starvation, and lack of clean water and adequate shelter或其部分内容，即可判断答案为[C]。starvation意为“饥饿”。

　　五、留意数字、人名、地名、时间、年代等相关信息

　　遇到数字、人名、地名、时间、年代时要对相关信息做简要记录，尤其是选项中出现类似的概念时，在听音时更应重点留意。

　　【例5】(四六级考试委员会样题-24题)

　　【选项】

　　[A] Late in the morning.

　　[B] Early in the afternoon.

　　[C] Sometime before dawn.

　　[D] Shortly after sunrise.

　　【原文重现】

　　M: … Rebel forces are closing in, and it’s feared tha they will be able to take the capital building before daybreak where, it is believed, many government officials are holding out.

　　24. At what time of day do you think this news report is being made?

　　【答案解析】

　　选[C]。细节题。根据原文中…it’s feared that they will …before daybreak.可知，当时报道的时间应该是在before daybreak(黎明破晓前)。dawn相当于daybreak。
