Unit three Description and Location----Identifying People/Items from Description

本单元共有20个练习。练习的重点是人物描述（Description）和找方位（Location）。这两项技能是我们日常生活不可缺少的，而且与国外实际生活紧密相关。

本单元用图片、图表和图等形式，帮助考生通过对所听到的人物的描述、或对方位的指令和指引，找出要找的人或要找的地方。通过练习培养考生边听、边看、边记的综合能力。

建议考生在做图片练习时，要注意图片中人物的共同点和不同点，以提高答题的命中率。在做找方位的练习时，要认真看图上已有的信息，如街名、地名。这样，在做听力练习时即使没跟上指令，只要你记住了图上的地名，也有助于你找到位置，因为在给指令时常以图中已有的地名为参考，如：opposite the church, behind the school, or next to the post office。
