2. W: May I see your ticket, please? I think you're sitting in my seat.

M: Oh, you're right. My seat is in the balcony. I'm terribly sorry.

Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place?

【C】【解析】关键词是ticket和balcony。balcony此处的意思是“戏院等的楼厅或包厢”,故答案为C。

【点睛】①预读选项可知本题提问对话地点,听音时要抓听特殊场景词汇。②在听力材料中,多义词balcony的常用意义是“包厢,( 戏院)楼厅”而不是“阳台”,往往与“剧院”场景有关。

【点睛】话题往往由第一个人提出,重要信息往往多次出现,捕捉到任何一处均可解决问题。其实答案中的sad一词

也是听到的,使得本题难度大大降低,即使不懂funeral是“葬礼”的意思也问题不大。

可选A。

D】【解析】女士说抓住要点,忽略细节,正好是D的意思：focus与concentrate同义,main points与impol与nt ideas同义。
