轉(zhuǎn)折題型
　　這種題型出現(xiàn)的頻率很高，其特征是：第一個說話人所說的不是十分重要；第二個說話人的答話由兩部分組成：先是一個簡單的短句，緊接著是一個較長的句子，短句與長句之間常用but, though, however等轉(zhuǎn)折意思的詞語連接，從而引起的作者態(tài)度及談?wù)撝攸c(diǎn)的變化。
　　人物身份題型
　　在這類對話中，由于說話人之間的關(guān)系不同，其用詞、造句、語氣都有區(qū)別。這是聽錄音時要抓的關(guān)鍵之一，在此基礎(chǔ)上再捕捉有關(guān)信息，然后判斷、推測人物之間的關(guān)系及其身份。這類題比較簡單，考生只要抓住那些與職業(yè)和身份有關(guān)的關(guān)鍵詞即可回答。這類題目與詢問地點(diǎn)的考題有類似之處。
　　常見的提問形式有：
　　Who is the man/woman?
　　What is the man’s/woman’s job/profession/occupation?
　　What is the probable relationship between the two speakers?
　　Who is the man/woman most probably speaking to?
　　考題中常涉及的職業(yè)或人物身份關(guān)系及相關(guān)信息詞有：
　　老師和學(xué)生(teacher and student）：grade, mark, score, term, course, assignment, pass, fail, scholarship, tuition, campus, dormitory, lab, experiment...
　　醫(yī)生和病人(doctor and patient）：fever, cough, cold, headache,injection, prescription, diagnose, temperature, medicine, blood pressure, heart disease, flu, surgery...
　　侍者和顧客(waiter/waitress and customer）：menu, order, reserve, steak, ham, salad, soup, coffee, juice, hamburger, sandwiches, buffet, bar, brandy, whisky, dessert, tip...
　　司機(jī)和乘客(driver and passenger）：taxi, fare, get off, change, tip, destination...
　　老板和秘書(boss and secretary）：typing, operating, copy, files, document, report, telephone, appointment, timetable, arrangement...
　　理解歸納題型
　　這類對話題出現(xiàn)的頻率很高，問題的答案在對話中沒有直接提供。要求考生把談話中提供的細(xì)節(jié)作為前提，進(jìn)行一定的邏輯推理才能找到答案，或根據(jù)提供的細(xì)節(jié)進(jìn)行歸納得出結(jié)論。
　　常見的提問方式有：
　　What does the man/woman imply?
　　What can be inferred from the conversation?
　　What do we learn about the man/woman/conversation?
　　以上的四期節(jié)目我們歸納了短對話部分試題所涉及的類型，也許目前你還是有聽不懂的地方，it’s not a big deal, 正因如此，我們才需要不斷學(xué)習(xí)。重要的是你要養(yǎng)成一種靈活運(yùn)用自己聽到的信息并大膽進(jìn)行推測的習(xí)慣。請參考錄音原文再聽一遍對話，確信自己對于細(xì)節(jié)部分都可以聽出來了，然后自己隨著錄音跟讀一次。
　　短對話部分的復(fù)習(xí)到此就結(jié)束了，下星期我們將進(jìn)入長對話和短文的復(fù)習(xí)，希望大家可以繼續(xù)眾眾的節(jié)目，讓我們一起攻克PETS-3。
