语义理解题需要对短文中听到的某一具体信息细节理解后，查看在选项中哪个意思与之最符合。

【真题示例】
PeoplechooseLondonforpost-Christmasshoppingbecause._______(2009.II)
[A]shopsopenearlyinthemorning
[B]shopsstayopenforlongerhours
[C]theycanbuyreallycheapthings
[D]theycanshopwiththeirfriends

本题正确选项在短文原文中没有完全相同的话,理解短文原文中“…andyoucancertainlypickupsomeamazingbargains.”的意思后,发现它与选项-C的意思类似,指(买到便宜货),所以可知应该选C(2)推理排除

推理排除问题要求考生从4个选项中选出一个正确的,或者选出一个不正确的,问题形式可能是“Whichofthefollowingstatementsabout…isCORRECT/INCORRECT?”
与语义理解题相比,推理排除题难度更大一些,因为它涉及多个位置的信息,经过许多细节理解之后才能作出正确的决策.

【真题示例】
WhichofthefollowingdetailsaboutFamilyHealthInternationalisINCORRECT?(2010,19)
[A]Itisanonprofitorganization.
[B]Itprovidespublichealthservices.
[C]Itcarriesoutresearchonpublichealth..
[D]Ithasworkedinfivecountriestillnow.
由“TheorganizationisbasedinNorthCarolinaandhasprogramsin70countries.”可以得知该组织在70个国家开展了项目,因此D选项的描述是不准确的,正确答案为D..推理推测题(3)主题总结

主题总结要求考生听完整个短文之后,归纳整篇短文的主题大意,然后从4个选项中选择一个最适合的,或者也可能从4个选项中选择一个最能表明短文作者态度的选项.问题形式可能是Whatisthemainidea/topicofthispassage?Whatcanwelearnfromthepassage等等.

【真题示例】
Whatisthemainideaofthetalk?(2007,13)
[A]Howtohavethebikestamped.
[B]Howtoprotectyourbike.
[C]Howtobuygoodlocks.
[DJHowtoreportyourlostbiketothepolice.
