分析:从男性说话中的actually一词可以听出他并不同意女性刚刚说的内容,他有自己的想法,类似的词语还有in fact,这也提醒我们,抓住短对话中的小词去揣摩说话人的态度也是非常关键的。
虚虚实实—虚拟语气题型
这属于一种隐性考法,用虚拟语气表达一种抱怨、后悔等情绪,主要体现虚拟语气的关键词有:if, if only, I only wish..., couldn’t have done something...without...等。

咬文嚼字—理解归纳题型
这类题型难度颇高,关键在于后者说话当中的生词及细节较多,考生很难在短时间内完全把握对话的实质内容,能否答对就要看自己平时的积累。
