五、原因与结果

（一）以事实为基础的问题将要求你能回忆出对话中所出现的直接信息

为了答出直接信息，你应当能听出： ? 注意听对话的细节。 ? 注意根据语境理解生词。

? 在听对话的同时注意看选择项，以便进行预测。 ? 特别注意数字和专有名词。 提问直接信息，通常有下列形式： “According to the conversation...” “What...” “Why...” “Which ? ”

（二）推测类的问题要求你根据对话中的具体细节得出结论或对细节进行比较

为了答出推测类的问题，你应当： ? 注意听对话的细节。 ? 注意根据语境理解生词。

? 在听对话的同时注意看选择项，以便进行预测。 ? 运用你的语境知识，猜测一下可能会得出哪些符合逻辑的结论。

提问推测类问题，通常有下列形式：

“It can be inferred from the conversation that...” “The man or woman most probably ...”

“What will the man or woman probably de next'“

对话双方第一个人以一个带有疑问代词what或疑问副词why的疑问句向对方提问，第二个人就第一个人提出的问题作出回答；而第三个人通常以一个带疑问代词what或疑问副词why的疑问句提出问题。

? You will hear：

Q：What is the man wearing?

[A] A new scarf. [B] A new pair of shoes. [C] A new hat. [D] A new pair of short pants. 2. 比较含蓄的因果表达

含蓄的因果关系是考生难以掌握的一种，需要在理解对话的语义、语境的基础上找出其中的因果关系。

这种关系常用的句型有： I'd like to...，but I...； I wish I could...； but I...； but... not... ? You will hear：

M：How about going to dinner and movie with me tonight，Sandy?

W：I'd like to，but I haven't packed yet and my flight leaves at five am..

? You will read：

Q：Why didn't Sandy accept the invitation? [A] She's afraid of going out at night. [B] She had to do some baking.

[C] She wanted to get ready for a plane trip. [D] She was moving to a new apartment. 3. 用一般疑问句，一问一答表示因果

在对话中，第一个人用一般疑问句提出问题，第二个人的回答不是否定的便是肯定的。但学生不应一听到答语中的yes或no，就急于选择，而是应注意yes与no之后的解释，因为第三者提出的问题是问yes或no的态度及原因，有时第二个人对第一个人提出的问题不直接回答，这就需要考生认真理解第二个人的话语含义，然后做出正确的选择。

? You will hear：

W：Are you going fishing with us today?

? You will read：

Q：What does the man mean?
