Part A [考点解析与技巧解密]

音频

高考考点1: 选购场景

历年考点解析

物品选购题主要考查以下三个方面:

1 价格; 2 大小; 3 颜色。

考题多以价格和大小题型为主,颜色题型为辅。

技巧规律解密

购物选择的总原则为“物美价廉”,即功能要全,价格要低。价格和大小题型主要考查数字听写能力。问到价格时,通常有三种考法:

1 已知原价,问折后价;

2 已知折后价,问原价;

3 已知原价,问售后找零。

所以,解题前一定要看清楚题干问的问题。另外,商品打折(discount)的规律是以半价(half)为主,常涉及数字运算。同时,听音时要特别注意听fifteen/fifty、thirty/thirteen、fourteen/forty等词的区别。
