　　預(yù)覽四道題各選項(xiàng)，尤其是20題的選項(xiàng)D)和21題的各選項(xiàng)，均涉及到不同的工作，因此預(yù)測對(duì)話內(nèi)容可能與人們的工作相關(guān)。

　　19. Where does this talk most probably take place?[答案]A) In a studio.[聽前猜測]四個(gè)選項(xiàng)均為表示地點(diǎn)的介詞短語，表明本題可能考查做某事的地點(diǎn)。[精解]對(duì)話開頭男士提到了welcome to our program Working Abroad和Our guest等內(nèi)容，尤其是program和guest具有很強(qiáng)的提示作用。結(jié)合選項(xiàng)，不難得出對(duì)話發(fā)生在演播室，A)是答案。

　　20. What was the womans original plan when she went to Florence?[答案]B) To stay there for half a year.[聽前猜測]四個(gè)選項(xiàng)均為表目的的動(dòng)詞不定式，因此推測本題可能考查做某事的目的。[精解]對(duì)話中男士問女士在佛羅倫薩生活了多久，女士回答說自從1982年以來就生活在此了，隨后補(bǔ)充說到，本來打算只在那兒呆6 個(gè)月，也就是只呆半年，故B)是答案。

　　21. What has the woman been doing for a living since 1988?[答案]A) Designing fashion items for several companies.[聽前猜測]四個(gè)選項(xiàng)均表示工作的內(nèi)容，因此推測本題可能考查某人的工作情況。[精解]對(duì)話中，女士介紹了自己到佛羅倫薩后的工作情況。從1988年后她就成為了一名自由設(shè)計(jì)師，為多家意大利公司設(shè)計(jì)時(shí)尚用品，因此選項(xiàng)A)為答案。

　　22. What do we learn about the change in Italys fashion industry?[答案]B) It has become much more competitive.[聽前猜測]四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中提到了一些與公司或行業(yè)運(yùn)營狀況相關(guān)的詞語，如steady decline in profits，more competitive，lost many customers，attract a lot more designers from abroad等，故推測本題是針對(duì)行業(yè)的變化提問。[精解]對(duì)話中男士問1982年以來意大利的時(shí)裝行業(yè)有什么變化，女士回答時(shí)提到了a lot more competitive，即競爭更加激烈了，故B)為答案。
