(三)因果關(guān)系題

　　提高這類(lèi)測(cè)試題的應(yīng)試能力，考生必須學(xué)會(huì)分析選擇項(xiàng)。根據(jù)選擇項(xiàng)特征確

　　定測(cè)試的具體類(lèi)型。即該題是就原因提問(wèn)還是就結(jié)果進(jìn)行提高;同時(shí)根據(jù)選擇項(xiàng)

　　中的主語(yǔ)、人稱(chēng)代詞的性質(zhì)明確聽(tīng)音的重點(diǎn)，即是集中注意力聽(tīng)男聲部分還是女

　　士的談話(huà)。就原因提問(wèn)的測(cè)試題，其選擇項(xiàng)特點(diǎn)較為明顯，通常都由because 引

　　導(dǎo)。但也不不少含蓄型的題目。這類(lèi)測(cè)試題的選擇項(xiàng)沒(méi)有because ，不過(guò)，只要

　　認(rèn)真分析一下選擇項(xiàng)的謂語(yǔ)部分也能加以確定。

　　(四)地點(diǎn)與場(chǎng)所題

　　地點(diǎn)與場(chǎng)所類(lèi)的題目主要要求考生判斷對(duì)話(huà)發(fā)生的地點(diǎn)，或判斷對(duì)話(huà)中某一

　　方要去的地方，以及判斷第三者所在的位置等。這類(lèi)測(cè)試通常比較簡(jiǎn)單，提問(wèn)的

　　方式比較單一，選擇項(xiàng)特點(diǎn)明顯，一般四個(gè)選擇項(xiàng)都是表示地點(diǎn)狀語(yǔ)的介詞短語(yǔ)。

　　1 、常見(jiàn)的提問(wèn)方式是：

　　Where does the conversation most probably take place?

　　Where are the two speakers now?
