　　例题：

　　2009年12月四级考试第9题

　　A) She must have paid a lot for the gym. B) She is known to have a terrific figure.

　　C) Her gym exercise has yielded good results. D) Her effort to keep fit is really praiseworthy.

　　Woman: I’ve been working out the gym since January. I was a bit out of shape.

　　Man: You look terrific! It seems that your effort has paid off.

　　Question: What does the man imply about the woman?

　　解析：可以明显看出，本题的答案为C(她的健身房联系获得了好的结果)。yielded good results和原文中的your effort has paid off产生了替换作用。其中，类似gym和terrific、efforts等这样明显的词汇是特别需要慎选的，因为这些词汇都在原文中被明显播读过。另外本题目中还包括很多有用的说法：例如terrific figure (魔鬼身材)paid off(发生效果)，以及重复考过的out of shape (身材走样) 等等。

　　例题：

　　请关注2009年6月几道小对话题目的原文形式和设问方式：

　　W: There were more than a hundred people at Kate's birthday party. How come she's got so many friends?

　　M: It's really no surprise. You know she was popular even when she was a child.

　　Q: What does the man imply about Kate?

　　M: My washing machine is more than fifteen years old and it has worked just fine until last night。

　　W: You'll never be able to get parts for it, even from Japan. So it might be time to invest a more recent model。

　　Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?

　　W: I heard about your promotion, you must be thrilled。

　　M: Not really, the new office is huge, but the word load has doubled。

　　Q: What do we learn about the man from the conversation?

　　以上三道小对话，都把问题的设计方向安排在第二句的位置上。所以，考生在解题时需要将自己的听力重点放在第二句上。

　　第二部分：长对话

　　做题方式：视听基本一致原则，场景解题原则

　　视听基本一致的含义是指，听到的原文和看到的选项若基本一致，则选项容易为正确选择。这一点和短对话的原则恰恰相反，请考生一定注意。另外，考生还应注意长对话第一回合句，转折关系以及语调变化等。

　　例题：

　　Man: Yes. I’m looking for information on courses in computer programming. I would need it for the fourth semester.

　　W: Do you want a day or evening course?

　　M: Well, it would have to be an evening course since I work during the day(19题答案点在此处直接被读出).

　　W: Aha. Have you taken any courses in data processing?

　　20. What does the man have to do before taking the course of computer programming?

　　特别需要指出的是，本题发生的主题场景就在大学——Parkson College，学生向老师咨询课程(courses)的内容。这时，做完题目的考生得问问自己：选修课必修课，大课小课，讲座展示，学分学时这类词汇和短语我们都会说么?(具体内容请特别关注本期七大听力高频词汇)
