He became famous in the late 1980s. 他是在20世紀(jì)80年代末出名的。 6. He loves nothing but money. 他只是愛錢。fortnight代表兩個星期,也就是十四天,所以C為正確答案。尤其是要分清數(shù)字中“teen”和“ty”等之類讀法的區(qū)別:前者為重讀音節(jié)“ee”發(fā)長元音/ i:/,而后者不是。 【解析】 原文中出現(xiàn)4個數(shù)字,首先,聰明的你必須分清楚它們分別代表什么,之間有什么聯(lián)系:“10”代表一張面值10美元(bill)的應(yīng)付鈔票,“2”代表要買的2張門票(tickets),“”(change),“1”代表問題中問到的1張門票值多少錢(cost)。我們再來看問題,選B是對號入座。相對其他題型而言,計算類是四級聽力中的基礎(chǔ)題(可分為計算題、細節(jié)辨認(rèn)題、等值轉(zhuǎn)換題),也應(yīng)該是你的搶分題,故不可“大意失荊州”。除了清楚這些還不夠,dozen是英語中數(shù)字的代用詞,表示12。 【解析】 原文中共出現(xiàn)兩個數(shù)字,因此在聽的過程中注意與這兩個時間有關(guān)的動作或事件。 【解析】 通過合并同類項方法可以排除選項C,因為四位數(shù)前兩位都是54,難點在于分清18和80的讀法區(qū)別至關(guān)重要:eighteen amp。元音有20個,分單元音和雙元音兩大類;單元音中,按發(fā)音部位可分為前元音、中元音和后元音;按發(fā)音和嘴型大小、時間長短可分為長元音和短元音。 9.
