20天掌握英语四级听力无压力—观点态度(12)
观点态度题
观点态度题是指正确答案与原文中的观点态度一致,做这种题型除了理解对话中的大意之外,还需注意问题中问的是男士还是女士的观点,以免张冠李戴。这类题往往选项中会给出相关线索,如四个选项都出现“she”,可以推测此题是考有关女士的观点,所以在听原文中应注重Woman的阐述;如果四个选项都出现“she would”,则问题是男士建议女士怎么做,则应着重听男士的话;如四个选项都出现“his house”,可以推测此题是考对话双方对他的房子的看法,所以在听原文时应注重双方在对房子的观点上。
【例1】 2001.1
W: Professor White’s presentation seemed to go on forever. I was barely able to stay awake.
M: How could you sleep through it? It’s one of the best I have ever heard on this topic.
Q: What does the man think of Professor White’s presentation?
A) He finds the presentation hard to follow.
B) He considers the presentation very dull.
C) He thinks Professor White has chosen an interesting topic.
D) He speaks highly of the presentation.
【解析】 四个选项都出现“he”,可以推断这题考的就是男士的观点,应对男士的话加以关注。
男士说到“It’s one of the best…”意为最好之一,与D选项高度评价相对应。A、B都是女士的观点,不要张冠李戴咯,C说讲得有趣,原文没有提到。
【例2】 2001.1
W: The man at the garage thinks that I take good care of my car.
M: So do I. I can’t see any scratches on the outside and the inside is clean too.
Q: What does the man think of the woman’s car?
A) Her car can stand any crash. B) Her car is not as good as his.
C) Her car is maintained as well as his. D) Her car is kept in good condition.
【解析】 四个选项都出现“her car”,可以推测此题是在考对她的车有哪些看法,所以应注意相关车的信息。第一句话女士说修理场工作人员认为自己“I take good care of my car(车保养的很好)”,男士回答“so do I”,内外都很干净,所以D是男士的观点。
