建议句型的考察: 建议句型往往是比较复杂的考点之一,因为句型相对比较多,而且隐蔽性比较强,比如上文提到的反问句型,我们不妨再看一下本次考试中其他几个建议句型,如样卷第12题(2005年6月考题第3题):
* F) r9 M, Q9 c: x5 t H* Z3 Y9 ? W: I am going to Martha’s house. I have a paper to complete. And I need to use her computer.
* B D( J" R3 N; s1 x M: Why don’t you buy one yourself? Think how much time you could save.
! t" D" g0 A' T; K6 L# o0 Z Q: What does the man suggest the woman do?% Z% c8 s/ U5 q( q
问题直接指向建议,问到“suggest”这个词,自然,题干中的“Why don’t you”就成了重中之重。否定的反问,自然体现了肯定的意思,言下之意无非就是“You should buy one yourself.”答案自然也就迎刃而解。6 v$ I# v" ^6 Z8 t9 R
场景、人物关系的推测:4 Q; S, \% R t! X4 u0 r2 m: J
场景和人物关系一直以来都是四级考试一个重要的考点,要求考生通过对场景词的把握来推测事情发生的地点以及当事人之间的关系。例如样卷第14题(2005年6月第7题):+ F8 l7 `: J' p- M8 H
W: Mr. Watson, I wonder whether it’s possible for me to take a vacation early next month?
: F. W: K% V1 l M: Did you fill out a request form?; `3 v; q% c& o- @+ ~
Q: What is the probable relationship between the two speakers?
' M% |1 s4 B. t 本题的关键词出在vacation上,女人向男人申请休假,其实到这里就已经知道他们之间的关系了,所以对于工作场景中vacation这样的词的把握尤其重要。
0 |. S; b9 `' R9 E 再如样卷第16题(2005年6月考题第9题):
2 m# Z0 O' @5 G' L' R n W: Wow, I do like this campus. All the big trees, the green lawns, and the old buildings with tall columns. It’s really beautiful.
6 Y! J! e! q# {+ ^5 x$ ] M: It sure is. The architecture of these buildings is in the Greek style. It was popular in the 18th century here.
