　　这种类型的题目相对比较简单。首先，四个选择往往是4种不同职业或者是表示两个对话者之间关系的词。如husband and wife, boss and secretary, librarian and student或customer and repairman等。选择项的特点决定了提问的内容。了解这一点后，在听音过程中，就可以把注意力集中到一些关键词或词组上，以便作出准确判断。其次，提问的方式比较单一固定。

　　1、常见的提问方式是：

　　What’s the man/ woman?

　　What does the man/ woman do?

　　What’s the man’s /woman’s job/ profession/ occupation?

　　What’s the probable relationship between the man and woman?

　　What’s the probable relationship between the two speakers?

　　在听音过程中，只需集中注意力听清对话，根据对话提供的有效信息，便可以比较快地作出正确选择。
