此外,对话者的语调也可提供重要的信息,但要求较高,此处不予推荐,读者如有兴趣,可参考有关书籍。
【例1】
W: Did you watch the game last night?
M: I wouldnt have missed it for anything.
Q: Did the man watch the game last night?
A) No, he missed. B) Yes, he did.
C) No, he didnt. D) Yes, he probably did.
本题的关键是M话中的虚拟语气。听出了这一点,即使对for anything (无论如何)不太理解,我们也知道他去看比赛了。故答案是(B)。
【例2】
M: The city council has finally voted the funds to build a new high school.
W: Its about time they did it. I dont know what took them so long.
Q: Whats the womans opinion about the school?
A) Its too expensive. B) It isnt needed.
C) It should be built. D) A college would be better.
答案为C)。如前所述,对于这种题要注意第二个人的话。本题要求考生根据W的话推断出她的态度和看法,有一定的难度。首先要对Its about time they did it这句虚拟语气有正确的理解,意为他们该这么做了。其后的I dont know what took them so long同样表明了她认为他们早该表决投入资金建学校了。It is time 后面的that 从句要用虚拟语气(动词过去式)。
