1. 信息题
在访谈或对话中会询问受采访者或对话人的个人信息，如身份、行为等。答题所需的信息有可能很明显，也有可能只是一带而过；有可能正面询问，也有可能反面询问。需要考生抓住细节，并进行合理分析。

如2003年访谈的第1题：

A. He had excellent academic records at school and university.
B. He was once on a PhD programme at Yale University.
C. He received professional training in acting.
D. He came from a single-parent family.
这一题要求考生耐心听完全部关于受采访者个人信息的内容才能判断出不正确的选项。解题方法请参阅下文应试技巧部分。

又如2006年访谈的第2题：
Which of the following is NOT part of her job with the Department of Employment?
A. Doing surveys at workplace. B. Analyzing survey results.
C. Designing questionnaires. D. Taking a psychology course.
这一题也要求考生耐心听完全部关于受采访者在劳工部工作的信息后才能判断出不符合原文内容的选项。解题方法请参阅下文应试技巧部分。

2. 态度题
这种题目是访谈类材料出现频率相当高的题型。有的题目对应的选项只是表达情感的词或词组，而有的题目对应的选项是句子。在做这种题的时候，考生一般无法从录音材料原文中找到答案，需要一定的推理分析能力。下面我们来看一看具体的题目。

A. a sense of frustration B. haunted by the unknown things
C. confi dent but moody D. successful yet unsatisfi ed

2003年访谈的第5题：

2004年访谈的第3题：

2006年访谈的第5题：

2008年对话的第5题：

C. strongly against D. mildly against

2012年访谈的第4题：
Which of the following features of a creative personality is NOT mentioned in the interview?
A. Unconventional. B. Critical. C. Resolute. D. Original.

不难看出，要做好态度题，必须熟悉经常出现的体现态度的词汇，如2003年第4题的frustration（挫折），haunted（受折磨的），confident but moody（自信但忧郁的），successful yet unsatisfi ed（成功但不满足的）；2003年第5题的anger（愤怒），sadness（悲伤），help（帮助），no effect（无用）；2005年第4题的positive（肯定的），neutral（中立的）；2006年第5题的willing and ready（愿意并准备好了），mildly eager（有一点愿意），a bit surprised（有点惊讶），very reluctant（非常不愿意）；2008年第5题的strongly in favour of（完全赞同），mildly in favour of（略为赞同），strongly against（完全反对），mildly against（略为反对）；2012年第4题的unconventional（不依惯例的），critical（挑剔的），resolute（果断的），original（新颖的）等。

积累了一定量的体现态度的词汇后，在听录音时就可以从一些词语或句子中推断出受采访者或对话人的态度，从而得出答案。如2008年对话的第5题询问Freddy对Mary意见的看法。该对话的主要内容是对建立新机场发表意见。Mary始终持否定态度并提出若干理由。Freddy对Mary的看法有些是同意的，有些并不同意。如：But, uh, airports do bring some local advantages. But, the airport infra... infrastructure relies on housing and other... ; Yes, you’re right. But, for a lot of people, personal contact is important. And this means travel, and means quick travel, air travel. And, uh, we just need a new airport. 由此可见，Freddy总体上反
对Mary的意见，但语气委婉，因此选择D（mildly against）。

以上提到的是围绕受采访者设计的两种题型，下面是从题目本身区分的题型。
