本次短對(duì)話而言，男女特征比較明顯，這次男生的地位略有抬頭，但總體而言，依然較女生低下。而從其內(nèi)容而言，場(chǎng)景基本得以保留和延續(xù)，比如第11題：

　　W: There were more than a hundred people at Kate's birthday party. How come she's got so many friends?

　　M: It's really no surprise. You know she was popular even when she was a child

　　Q: What does the man imply about Kate?

　　其中出現(xiàn)的派對(duì)場(chǎng)景birthday party一詞非常明顯;

　　再如第12題：

　　M: They say there'll be a snow-storm tonight, and the cold weather will last quite a few days.

　　W: Oh! We're so lucky, we'll be getting away for a while, and having a holiday in Florida. But let's call right now to confirm our flight.

　　Q: What do we learn about the two speakers?

　　其中天氣場(chǎng)景詞snow-storm、cold weather，節(jié)日?qǐng)鼍暗膆oliday等。

　　不過(guò)這次短對(duì)話中的詞組詞匯考點(diǎn)明顯略有增加，比如15題：

　　M: My washing machine is more than fifteen years old and it has worked just fine until last night.

　　W: You'll never be able to get parts for it, even from Japan. So it might be time to invest a more recent model.

　　Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?

　　其中的invest一詞;

　　以及16題：

　　W: I can't decide what to do about the party tomorrow.

　　M: You don't have to go if you don't want to, but I'll be glad to give you a ride if you do.

　　Q: What do we learn from the conversation?

　　中的give you a ride等。

　　而這一點(diǎn)的變化在之前考試中已初見(jiàn)端倪，這也是四級(jí)考試向六級(jí)考試特點(diǎn)靠攏的一個(gè)典型表現(xiàn)。不過(guò)縱使如此，考點(diǎn)本身并沒(méi)有發(fā)生太大的變化，比如13題看似是很與眾不同的一題，但最后答案的courageous一詞也在原文中表達(dá)得相當(dāng)清晰：I really admire his courage. 而就場(chǎng)景變化也在這方面表現(xiàn)得比較明確，就是工作場(chǎng)景詞匯的明顯增加，即使是用在別的領(lǐng)域中，比如12題中的confirm，14題的invest，17題的contract一詞，這些都與六級(jí)考點(diǎn)有所接軌。

　　綜上分析，可以發(fā)現(xiàn)，短對(duì)話場(chǎng)景繼承往年特征并在近幾年加大了工作場(chǎng)景的比例;詞匯相對(duì)活躍，但多數(shù)在之前考試中均有出現(xiàn)過(guò);詞組考查數(shù)量見(jiàn)漲，向六級(jí)靠攏，但言外之意仍屬少數(shù);最后，技巧而言，基本延續(xù)了往年的特色，尤其是在男女側(cè)重而言。
