6. According to the conversation,who took up the hobby earlier?

此题属于对时间的推理判断。题目询问谁先开始从事自己的爱好的。对话中男士问女士拉小提琴多长时间了,女士说5年了,而男士说“...been traveling for six years.”因此他6年前就开始旅游拍照了,所以选项C(男士)的爱好开始的时间更早。
[避错指南] 根据对话内容可以排除选项A(同时)和选项B(女士);对话中虽未直接指出谁开始的时间早,但可以根据谈话推理,故应排除选项D(对话中未提及)。
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】[听力原文]
Which of the following places has the man not been to?

题目询问以下哪些地方男士还没去过。只要抓住对话中的相关信息“well,I have been to Europe,Asia and…Africa.”,听清其中提到的一些地方,就能做出正确选择,因此选项A(北美洲)是正确。
[避错指南] 对话中男士说到他去过欧洲和亚洲,并且刚从非洲回来,只要听清这些名词,就能排除选项B(欧洲),选项C(亚洲)和选项D(非洲)。
