动作行为题
解题思路:重点关注情态动词和表建议及请求的句型,情态动词之后、表建议及请求的句型中的动作即为答案,注意动作的时态和多个动作的顺序。
选项特点:四个选项均以动词原形、不定式或...should开头。

[B]Stick to the original plan.
[C]Compromise with his colleague.
[D]Try to change his colleague's mind.
原文:M:The biological project is now in trouble.You know,my colleague and I have completely different ideas about how to proceed.
W:Why don't you compromise? Try to make it a win?win situation for you both.
Q:What does the woman suggest the man do?
答案:C
解析:通过选项可以判断该题为动作行为题。答案在女士的答语why don't you compromise这一建议句型中,也就是建议男士和同事妥协。
例2:2011年6月真题
15.[A]Just make use of whatever information is available.
[B]Put more effort into preparing for the presentation.
[C]Find more relevant information for their work.
[D]Simply raise the issue in their presentation.
原文:W:I don't think we have enough information for our presentation,but we have to give it tomorrow.There doesn't seem to be much we can do about it.
M:Yeah,at this point,we'll have to make do with what we've got.
Q:What does the man suggest they do?
答案:A
解析:通过选项可以判断该题为动作行为题。答案在男士答语中情态动词短语have to后面:we'll have to make do with what we've got“我们不得不利用我们现有的信息勉强应付”。选项A“Just make use of whatever information is available”与这句话属于同义替换。
