　　【原文重现】

　　W: We now interrupt our regular scheduled news program to bring you live up-to-date coverage on the civil unrest in the newly formed country of Karnak, where our man Stan Fielding is stationed. Stan ...

　　M: …, rebel forces launched the biggest offensive against the ruling government in the 18-month conflict here in this country.

　　M:…, rebel forces are also using heavy artillery to pound the positions of government forces around the city center. Rebel forces are closing in, …

　　M: … this war-torn country …, but that is always a concern if this war lingers on.

　　22.What is the news coverage mainly about?

　　【答案解析】

　　选[A]。主旨题。主旨题的答案往往在开头或结尾，而本题的答案即出自开头的第一句。选项中的latest(最新的)对应该句中的live up-to-date(最新直播)，armed rebellion(武装叛乱)对应unrest(动乱)。另外，对话的主题往往会得到多次重复，因此根据后面多次出现的rebel forces, conflict, war等与“叛乱”相关的词语，也可判断本题答案为[A]。

　　四、同义复现必出

　　正确选项往往与原文相似，或是原文的同义表达，因此应注意提取选项中的关键点，在听音时留意其是否与原文同意并加以记录。

　　【例4】(四六级考试委员会样题-25题)

　　【选项】

　　[A] Inadequate medical care.

　　[B] Continuing social unrest.

　　[C] Lack of food, water and shelter.

　　[D] Rapid spreading of the epidemic

　　【原文重现】

　　W: … what other pressing concerns are there for the citizens of the city?

　　M: Well, since the beginning of the conflict, starvation, and lack of clean water and adequate shelter have been the biggest daily obstacles facing the citizens of this war-torn country.

　　25. What is the pressing concern of the citizens of Karnack?

　　【答案解析】

　　选[C]。细节题。四个选项中只有[C]项内容在对话中出现，其他三项均未涉及到，故只要抓住对话中starvation, and lack of clean water and adequate shelter或其部分内容，即可判断答案为[C]。starvation意为“饥饿”。
