4 在上下文中寻找线索
有时候对话中的意义没有得以明确表达,而需要听者通过上下文的线索去体会事物间的联系从而揣测对话者的含义。
Example
You will hear:
Man:Read anything good lately?
Woman:Nothing you would like.
Question:What does the woman mean?(https://www.daowen.com)
You will read:
A.Their taste in books is different.
B.She doesn’t like to read.
C.The library isn’t open late.
D.She only reads good books.
女士的回答似乎答非所问,但从上文中我们看出男士的问题是关于读书,可以判断nothing 一词指的是所读的书,说明他们两人的阅读喜好并不相同,所以正确答案应为A项。
