【答案解析】[解析] Can we walk to the shopping mall, or should we drive? (A) Right, it's not that far. (B) I think we should drive. (C) Yes, we usually go shopping by bus.
【答案解析】[解析] How often do you travel overseas? (A) For about a month. (B) As frequently as possible. (C) Usually by plane.
如果你只听到“How”,可能就会产生“错误联想”,容易选错答案。如果你只听到“How”和“travel”,就会认为(A)“about a month”或(C)“by plane”是。在带有“How”的各种疑问句中,“How often(多久一次)”是很重要的一个句型。此外,像(B)“尽可能地频繁”这类不直接说次数,而采用含糊表达的回答方式也是需要注意的。
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】[解析] Excuse me, I'd like to rent a car, please. (A) Sure, there's a bar upstairs. (B) Mr. Sato lent me this. (C) Sorry, there's none available now.
我们完全可以把“I'd like to~(我想做~)”视为表示请求的表达方式。不过我们不能被(A)“Sure(好呀)”迷惑,因为这个回答的后半部分是不正确的。“car”和(A)“bar”,以及“rent”和(B)“lent”都属于发音相似词,可以根据“含发音相似的词,一定不正确”这一原则予以排除。(C)中的“available(可用的)”是考试高频词汇,在这道题中,它表示“现在没有可使用的车辆”。
【正确答案】
A
【答案解析】[解析] What did you think of Ms. Anderson's proposal? (A) I was impressed. (B) Proposals are due next week. (C) Yes, she's getting married.
“What did you think of~?(你觉得~怎么样?)”是Part 2的高频句型。因为是在询问“意见”,所以可以很轻松地选出(A)。根据“重复使用题目中原词的一定不正确”这一原则,可以将(B)“Proposals”排除。而(C)是由“proposal”引发的“错误联想”,得出“propose(求婚)”,所以也不正确。
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】[解析] Did you finish making the copies? (A) Yes, the coffee is ready. (B) No problem, I'll do it. (C) Judy is taking care of it.
