將各題所考查的主題內(nèi)容結(jié)合在一起,往往可得出整篇對話的主題。如果某一題目是考查對話主題,其中的一個選項明顯能夠概括其他各題選項的內(nèi)容,那么該選項很可能為答案。

【聽前預(yù)測】
預(yù)覽三道題各選項,由19題中的 interview, applicants, vacancy, advertise for a manager, apply for a job 等詞語可以推測對話與刊登招聘廣告或應(yīng)聘工作有關(guān)。而20題中 hardworking, ambitious, good at managing his time, with practical working experience, with his own idea 等詞語則表明對話中還涉及到對所招聘人員的要求。
