主要出题点如下:
1. 文章开头。例如,新闻2中Question 3:What is Christine Marshall trying to do?(Christine Marshall想要做什么)的答案对应了文章开头一句话:Christine Marshall, a 30 years old mom of one, posted a tearful video on social media Wednesday, begging for a safe return of her beloved pet dog.(Christine Marshall,一个30岁的母亲,在社交媒体上发布了一则声泪俱下的视频,祈求她的宠物狗能够平安归来);再如,长对话1中Question 8:What are the speakers mainly talking about?(对话者们主要在谈论什么?)对应了文章开头第一句:So what time do you think we should have the party on Saturday?(所以,你觉得周六的聚会应该定在几点呢?)
2. 文章结尾。例如:长对话1中Question 11:What does the man suggest they ask Paul to do?(男人建议他们去让Paul干什么?)对应了文章结尾倒数第二句:Maybe we should ask Paul to bring his computer and speakers, so that we can play some music.(我们应该让Paul把他的电脑和扬声器带过来,这样我们就能放音乐了。)再如,长对话2的Question 15:What do we learn about the man's friend from the conversation?(关于对话中男人的朋友我们可以了解到什么?)就直接对应了对话的最后一句Exactly, you have nothing to worry about. He's a lovely guy, and he'll be happy to help. (事实上,你什么也不用担心。他是个很可爱的人,他会很乐意帮忙的。)
3. 提示词。例如,短文1中,最高级表达词组they are one of the most damaging invasive species (他们是最具破坏性,侵略性的物种之一),所对应的问题是Question 16:What do we learn about early pigs in North America?(关于北美早期的猪,我们可以得出什么?);又如,短文1中Q17:Why are wild pigs a threat to humans?(为什么野生猪对人类是个威胁?)的答案句:Wild pigs cause millions of dollars in crop damage yearly. They also harbor dozens of diseases that threaten both humans and farm animals(野生猪每年造成数百万美元的农业损失,它们还滋生了几十种威胁人类和农场动物的疾病。)中包含了提示词threaten.
主要考点包括:
1. 主旨大意把握。例如,新闻2的Question 4: What did the news report say about Christine Marshall’s family?(关于Christine Marshall的家庭,新闻报道了什么?)
以及新闻3的Question 6:What does the news report say about Eggs & Bread café?(关于 Eggs & Bread café,新闻报道了什么?)
2. 细节定位。 比如,新闻3的Question 5: What does Guy Wilson say his café aims to do?(Guy Wilson说他的咖啡馆主要目的是?);又如,长对话2的Question 13: What does the woman say about German cars?(关于德国车,女人说了什么);
3. 考察原因。例如,长对话Question 9:Why does the woman say it’s a good idea to serve foods that guests can help themselves too?(为什么女人说让客人自助是个好主意?)又如短文3的Question 22:Why do a lot of people come to the village of Talkeetna every March?(为什么很多人每年3月都来到Talkeetna村)。
4. 问答原则。比如,对话1的Q11,男人问到:What shall we do about music? 女人接着回答:Maybe we should ask Paul to bring his computer and speakers, so that we can play some music. (我们应该让Paul把他的电脑和扬声器带过来,这样我们就能放音乐了。)又如,长对话2的Q13,男人问到:I see. So have you got your mind set on a specific model?(知道了,所以你心里有理想的特定款式么?),接着女人回答:No, not really. I've heard that German cars are very reliable.(还没有,我听说德国汽车的质量很令人放心)
5. 强调。比如短文2的Q21:What did the two Italian companies do in 2015? (这两家意大利公司在2015年做了什么?)对应的答案在最后一句:In 2015, two Italian companies collaborated on the construction of a similar type of spacecraft, which was the first coffee machine designed for use in space.(2015年,两家意大利公司合作建造了一个类航天器,这是第一台为在太空使用而设计的咖啡机。)其中the first即为强调这台咖啡机的历史意义。
又如,长对话2的Q14:What does the man recommend the woman do? (男人建议女人做什么?),对应的答案句:I have a friend who sells second hand cars. In fact, I think his family owns the business. (我有个卖二手车的朋友,事实上,我觉得他家就是做这个生意的。)词组in fact即为强调这位朋友可以帮助女人买到合适的车。
