　　(2)说话双方之间的关系

      该题型是上一题型的延伸,要求同学们能判断说话者双方的身份,问题经常是What's the relationship between the two speakers?

      ①W: How long will it take you to fix my watch?

      M: I'll call you when it's ready. But it shouldn't take longer than a week.

      Q: What is the probable relationship between the speakers?

      A. Librarian and student.

      B. Operator and caller.

      C. Boss and secretary.

      D. Customer and repairman.

      既然女士让男的fix my watch,说明对方是repairman,而自己是customer。

　　②M: Sorry to trouble you. But is there any possibility of borrowing a blanket? I feel cold.

      W: I think we've got one. Could you wait until after take-off please?

      Q: What is the probable relationship between the two speakers?

      A. A guest and a receptionist.

      B. A passenger and an air hostess.

      C. A customer and a shop assistant.

      D. A guest and a waitress.

      take-off一词的使用说明女的是空姐,答案自然是B。

      可以看出,职业、身份以及说话双方关系的选择所依据的同样是信息词。当然,要判断双方的关系,还可以从说话的方式入手。如：

      ③M: Make thirty copies for me and twenty copies for Mr. Brown.

      W: Certainly sir. As soon as I make the final corrections on the original.
