上下义概念的考查
有些题尽管问题可能问的是含义之类，但其实考查的是同学们对上下义关系的掌握。如：
①M： Let me see.I've printed my family name，first name，date of
birth and address. Anything else?
W： No，that's all right.We'll fill in the rest of it if you just
sign your name at the bottom.
Q： What has the man been doing?
A. Having an interview. B. Filling out a form.
C. Talking with a friend. D. Asking for information.
上义词为概括性词语，下义词所表示的则是具体的东西。本题中能够概括男士所做之事的应该是选项B.
② M：What happened to you? You are so late.
W：The bus I took broke down in front of the hospital and I had
to walk from there.
Q：Why was the woman so late?
A. Something went wrong with the bus.
B. She took somebody to hospital.
C. Something prevented her from catching the bus.
D. She came on foot instead of taking a bus.
Something went wrong 是对the bus break down的概括性表述。
对话听力中其它考查项目，如因果、条件、否定、比较等可参看四六级考试的《听力分册》。

(3)解题技巧
对于这类题，同学们在听的时候应特别注意文章的首句和尾句，首句一般开篇点名主题，而尾句则总结全文，根据这两句进行推断一般可以确定文章的主题。如上面②题可根据文章最后一段的尾句解答，请看
We use all sort of services without thinking how we get them. But such services cost money. We pay for them through taxes. What would happen if everyone in a city stop paying taxes? The water supply would stop. The street might not be cleaned. There would be no police force to protect people and property.
