解析：四级短对话三种经典句型 好准真题脉
　　种句型：if/whether...
　　If/whether引导的条件状语从句，年年有，可见其重要程度。
　　13.
　　W: Airport, please. I’m running a little late. So just take the fastest way even if it’s not the most direct.
　　M: Sure, but there is a lot of traffic everywhere today because of the football game.
　　Q: What do we learn about the woman from the conversation?
　　第二种是转折关系，此种类型几乎是每年必考之类别，且看12题。
　　12题属于典型转折关系考点，考查的重点在转折词的后面，即答案从后面的转折句子中得出。先看一下原题：
　　12.
　　W: I really enjoyed the TV special about drafts last night. Did you get home in time to see it?
　　M: Oh, yes, but I wish I could have stayed awake long enough to see the whole thing.
　　Q: What does the man mean?
　　根据题干要求“What does the man mean?”，可以将答案锁定到the man的话语中，具体是but I wish I could have stayed awake long enough to see the whole thing.答案是根据这句话做的同义转换得出的正确选项。
　　第三种经典词组重现。
　　2010年6月17题、2001年1月第5题、2002年第9题，同时考过 stay awake,重点短语重复出现值得引起重视。
　　12.
　　W: I really enjoyed the TV special about drafts last night. Did you get home in time to see it?
　　M: Oh, yes, but I wish I could have stayed awake long enough to see the whole thing.
　　Q: What does the man mean?
