七、与对话主题或其余选项内容不同的选项往往不是答案
如果某一选项明显与对话主题不相关,那么该选项往往不是答案。
如果某一选项明显与其他三个选项内容不同,即与该题主题明显不相关的选项往往不是答案。
【例8】(新06-12- 19)
【预览选项】
19. [A] He picked up some apples in his yard.
[B] He cut some branches off the apple tree.
[C] He quarreled with his neighbor over the fence.
[D] He cleaned up all the garbage in the woman’s yard.
20. [A] Trim the apple trees in her yard.
[B] Pick up the apples that fell in her yard.
[C] Take the garbage to the curb for her.
[D] Remove the branches from her yard.
21. [A] File a lawsuit against the man.
[B] Ask the man for compensation.
[C] Have the man’s apple tree cut down.
[D] Throw garbage into the man’s yard.
22. [A] He was ready to make a concession.
[B] He was not prepared to go to court.
[C] He was not intimidated.
[D] He was a bit concerned.
【听前预测】
由各选项中的apple, tree, yard, branches, trim(修剪)等词可推知对话主题应该与苹果树枝条和院子有关,再根据选项中出现的quarreled, lawsuit(诉讼), compensation(赔偿), concession(让步), court(法庭)等 词可推知对话还可能涉及到对话双方的争吵。
19题各选项中谓语动词的过去式形式表明本题应该是考查男士过去的活动。[A]、[B]、[C]均与苹果树和院子有关,只有[C]是关于fence(栅栏),与其他三项内容差别较大,且与其他各题选项内容均不相关,故[C]为答案的可能性较小。
【听音验证】
W: Hello, Patrick, is that you?
M: Yeah, Jane, what can I do for you?
W: I was calling about the apple tree that you were trimming yesterday.
M: That was hard work!
……【答案解析】
19. What did the man do yesterday?
【解析】选[B]。由女士话中的the apple tree that you were trimming yesterday可知男士昨天给苹果树剪枝了。trim意为“修剪,修整”。
八、包含其他选项内容的选项往往不是答案
有的选项明显包含其他选项的含义,那么该选项往往不是答案。
【例9】(托福)
【预览选项】
[A] She was impressed by it.
[B] It was a waste of money.
[C] She was amazed it had opened so soon.
[D] She didn’t like it as much as the other wings.
【听前预测】
由选项中的impressed, a waste of money, amazed, like 等可推知本题是针对对某事物的看法设题的。选项[A]说“it”给她留下了深刻印象,选项[C]说她对“it”这么快就开张(或开放)感到吃惊,其含义包含[A]的含义在内,故[C]很可能不是答案。
【听音验证】
M: Hey, how was your trip?
W: Wonderful. I spent most of my time at the art museum. I especially liked the new wing. I was amazed to hear the guide explain all the problems they had building it.
……【答案解析】
34.What did the woman think of the new wing of the museum?
【解析】 选[A]。细节题。由对话中出现的 amazed, unusual, impressive等可知女士对美术馆新侧厅的修建费用以及修建过程中的种种问题大感吃惊,并且对里面的设计印象非常深刻,故答案为[A]。
