(八)重视条件从句
四级题目中特别是Section A中的对话,有不少是通过条件句来表达建议,想法,结果和趋势等。因此,能正确理解和抓住说话者所要表达的真实意图至为重要。条件句有两种,一是真实条件句,二是虚拟条件句。真实条件句表达的意思是直接而明显的,一般指有可能实现;虚拟条件句是间接而含蓄的。对后者应有足够的谨慎。下面两个例子可作为说明:
M:If I go to the store,will you make dinner for us tonight? W:Bring back enough food. Q:What will the woman do if the man shops?
A.The woman will cook. B.He won't buy enough. C.He'll get in a bad mood. D.He will make dinner. 应选A
又如:W:Did you see film last night? M:I wouldn't have gone to see it if I'd known it was boring. Q:Where was the man last night?
A. In a bar. B.In a cinema. C.At a lecture. D.Unreasonable. 应选 B
条件句中以if引导居多,注意这种句式的表达特点。
它们经常用省略的形式,如if possible,if any,if not,if so,if necessary,if needed等,听省略形式的条件句,主要应该抓住主句的基本内容,因为条件句不易听错,只要抓住了主句的基本内容,就能正确做题。此外,表示条件的连词,除了if外,还有as long as,so long as,suppose,supposing,let's say等。
