关于六级长对话

　　单就长对话而言，长对话作为六级听力改革后的新题型体现了命题组对于考试改革的诉求——强调在实际环境中的语言运用能力。涉及到的对话场景内容非常广泛，从校园生活到生活中的各种场景。学生可以通过抓住“信号词” 来判断具体场景。经常涉及到的场景有：旅游(飞机，机场，出行准备等)，校园，工作面试，访谈等。

　　听力原文：

　　W: Right, well, in the studio this morning, for our interview spot is Peter Wilson(人名，重要). Peter works for Green Peace (特殊表达，文章主题词). So, Peter, welcome.

　　M: Thanks a lot. It's good to be here.

　　W: Great! Now, Peter, perhaps you can tell us something about Green Peace and your job there. (寒暄，为了迷惑考生，此处进入正题)

　　M: Sure. Well, I'll start by telling you roughly what Green Peace is all about. I actually work in London for the Green Peace organization(人物职业，22题考点1). We've been going for a few decades and we're a non-violent, non-political organization. We're involved in anti-nuclear activity, conservation and protection of animals and protection and support of our eco-system. I'm the action organizer and arrange any protests.(人物职业重复，22题考点。视听基本一致原则。)

　　W: Right! A pretty important role. Peter. What sort of protest would you organize?

　　M: Well, recently we've been involved in anti-nuclear campaigns. (问答关系，23题考点。视听一致原则。)I, personally arranged for the demonstration against radioactive waste dumping in the Atlantic Ocean. We've got a few small Green Peace boats that we harass(特殊词汇，首次出现，24题考点2) the dumping ship with.

　　W: Say? Hold on, Peter. I thought you said your organization was non-violent. What do you mean by "harass"? (重复核心词，也是问题所在。问答关系。)

　　M: Well, we circle round and round the ships and get in the way when they try to dump the drums of nuclear waste in the sea.(针对问题harass的具体回答，24题考点。) We talk to the men and try to change, you know, yell at them to stop. We generally make ourselves as much of a nuisance as possible.

　　M: Well, people may think differently of your methods, but there's no doubt you're doing a great job.(转折词but+态度判断词great，25题考点4), keep it up and good luck (继续态度判断). And thanks for talking with us.

　　W: Thanks for having me.

　　Q22. What is the man's chief responsibility in the Green Peace organization?

　　Q23. What has Green Peace been involved in recently?

　　Q24. How does Green Peace try to stop people from dumping nuclear waste?

　　Q25. What is the woman's attitude towards the Green Peace's campaigns?

　　解析：做题的时候一定要和短文一样对题目的出题位置有明确的把握，位置感很重要。一般而言，对话时，开头的客套以及问候与结尾的道别结束语很少出题，而对话中段往往才是重点。另外，本段长对话使用到了视听基本一致的原则。24题的考法是长对话中最典型的一种，就是针对动作行为进行发问，考点在于考生需要听明白人物发出的动作是什么，原文的动词harass和选项的harass是一摸一样，属于最简单的考法，而且原文重复两次，因此考生对此即便是不知道harass是什么意思也能选对。25题的考法是一贯的长对话结尾题，往往以态度判断和结论作为考察对象，此题选项均为态度词，很容易判断，另外，注意到选项呈现“三负一正”的格局，因此答案是显然的。本段长对话的几个特色词汇也需要注意：harass指“骚扰”，绿色和平组织采取“和平骚扰”的方式，影响那些倾倒核废料(dumping nuclear waste)的人们，而没有采取诉诸武力(resorting force)的方式。
