　　关键词类概述
　　大致可分为职业身份题、人物关系题、地点场景题等三大题型。
　　职业身份题
　　M: How about the food I ordered? I’ve been waiting for 20 minutes already.
　　W: I’m very sorry, sir. I will be back with your order in a minute.
　　Q: What’s the woman’s job?
　　A) A shop assistant B) A telephone operator
　　C) A waitress D) A clerk
　　【解析】 在原文播放之前，应扩展联想到有关shop assistant、telephone operator、waitress、clerk四种职业的词汇如（food, order, number, shop, hotel等），为选择正确答案作好充分准备。抓住原文中关键信息词order、wait，可推断出场景发生在餐厅，女士谈话的语气和用词“sorry sir”来分析其职业为服务员。选择C。
　　人物关系题
　　W: I often mistake Tim for Bob. Can you tell them apart?
　　M: No, they look so much alike that they even confused their mother sometimes when they were young.
　　Q: What is the probable relationship between Tim and Bob?
　　A) They are twins B) They are classmates
　　C) They are friends D) They are colleagues
　　【解析】 你的脑海中是否对twins、classmates、friends、colleagues积累了足够的信息词汇尤其重要（alike, homework, job等）。女士经常把Tim 和Bob认错，并问男士有什么区别（apart），抓住男士回答的信息词look alike、their mother不难判断其关系是双胞胎。所以答案是A。
　　地点场景题
　　M: Oh, dear! I’m starving, I can’t walk any farther. (2001.6)
　　W: Let’s go to the restaurant across the street and get something to eat.
　　Q: Where are the two people?
　　A) At home B) In a restaurant
　　C) In a car D) On the street
　　【解析】 注意选项中的有关home、restaurant、car、street关键词汇来判断正确答案。原文中的walk, across the street是本题的关键信息词，所以选择D。同样提到的starving、restaurant是他们将要去的地方（小陷阱咯！），而不是现在的所在处。
