</p>　　预览三道题各选项，提到her relationship with students, her teaching, get on the stage等表达，由此推测对话可能与老师教学相关。
　　23. Why does the woman find study in drama and theatre useful?[答案]D) It enables her to understand people better.[听前猜测]四个选项中的动词help, improve, strengthen, enable等都表示事物能够起到的作用，因此推测本题考查某事物的作用。[精解]对话中男士询问女士为什么对戏剧如此感兴趣，女士回答说她发现戏剧是研究别人的很好的方式，可以读懂戏剧中的人物，还补充说，即使有人撒谎，通常也能知道人们的真实想法。故正确答案为D)。
, v" ]9 d$ l8 q2 Q* |　　24. How did the woman’s students respond to her way of teaching English?[答案]B) Positively.[听前猜测]四个选项都是表示人的态度的词语，听音时要留意人们对事物的态度的论述。[精解]女士自我介绍说在课堂上经常让学生扮演不同的角色，创作小话剧。然后补充说，学生们对此反应很好。换句话说，同学们认可她这种独特的教学方式，所以态度是positively，选项B)正确。
　　25. What does the woman say about her stage fright?[答案]C) It vanishes the moment she steps into her role.[听前猜测]从选项出现的keep haunting, vanish和her mind goes blank等表达可推测本题考查人对某事物的感觉。[精解]女士在谈话中先承认自己有严重的stage fright(怯场)感觉，随后又解释说，但是一进入教室或走上讲台，就不再有那种感觉了。结合选项来看，选项C)是女士对stage fright的感觉。
