二、地點與方向題型： 在地點型試題中，有的地點在對話中直接提到，有的則需要根據對話內容來判斷(這類問題一般是問對話發生在何處)，還有的則是兩者兼而有之。
卷面線索
選項通常由(介詞+)地點名詞構成，提問可分為兩種情況。第一種問對話發生在何處，選項的形式通常為表示方位的介詞(如in, at等)加上一個地點名詞構成；第二種問的是方向，選項的形式通常為表示方向的介詞(如to, from, out of等)加上一個地點名詞或者只有地點名詞構成。
解題要點：
(1) 首先要根據卷面線索判斷出試題的類型。對于第一種試題，要重點聽對話中的與特定地點有關的常用詞或詞組(即關鍵詞)，例如聽到reserve，check in，check out，room之類的詞的話即可判斷對話是發生在旅館里，聽到size，color，pay，discount之類的詞即可判斷對話地點是在商店等。
(2) 與方向有關的詞和詞組并不多，所提出的問題在形式上也可能比較簡單，但是這類問題出現時，往往需要幾經思考才能得出答案。在這類問題中，務必要注意錄音中的內容細節，不要單憑從對話中獲得的孤立信息來確定答案。建議在聽音的同時用筆在紙上畫一些草圖以幫助理解。
(3)與時間題不同，有的地點題可通過邏輯判斷猜出正確的答案，平時要注意這方面能力的培養。
聽力真題原文一：
A)At the Sun Valley.
B) At the Health Center.
C) At home
D) At Work.
M：Good afternoon This is Edward Miller at the Sun Valley Health Center I’d like to speak to Mr Adams, please.
W：Mr Miller, my husband isn’t at home I can give you his business phone if you’d like to call him at work.
Q：Where is Mr Adams now?
答案D)。本題表面是很簡單，因為對話中有直接提示詞At work,它與D)項完全相同。此外，his buisness phone(他的辦公電話)也能給我們一定的提示。
聽力原文真題二：
A) At the airport.
B) In a travel agency.
C) In a hotel
D) At home
M： I’ve just got back from the holiday you arranged for me, but I must tell you the hotel was really awful! It was miles from the sea. The food was awful too. The bedroom was dirty.
W： Sorry about that but it’s not really our fault. The contract does say that the hotel accommodation is not our responsibility
Q： Where is the conversation most probably taking place?
此題對話中雖有地點名詞出現(hotel)，但明顯不是答案。本題考的是推理能力。根據hotel等關鍵詞，可推斷對話的話題與旅行有關。而從W的話中的arrange, contract等詞，可以判斷出這是一家旅行社(B)。本題說明，在聽對話時，要對關鍵詞特別注意，但又不能認為關鍵詞就是答案。
聽力原文真題三：
A)In the side street.
B) At the crossroads.
C) On the main road
D) On the motorway.
M：Now, Miss, do you feel all right now? What happened?
W：Yes, I’m fine now. I was just at the motorway I was driving along the main road when suddenly right before the crossroads I met the car came out at the side street I didn’t see him until he hit me.
Q： Where was the car before it hit the woman?
本題屬于較為特殊的地點題，考生不僅要聽懂對話發生的地點，而且要能理解I met the car came out at the side street這句語法上有錯誤的話并推斷出在汽車撞上W之前，它正在the side street (A)中。其他選項在對話中都曾出現過，但它們都是描述W本人所在的位置，而非肇事車輛所處的位置。
聽力原文真題四：
A) In a court.
B) On the farm.
C) In a bank.
D) In a shop.
W： I just stopped by at your office in the bank. They told me that you had quit where are you working now?
M： I am working for a lawyer now.The pay is better and the work is much more interesting.
Q： Where did the man work before?
答案C)。此題的關鍵詞bank在對話中出現了兩次，考生不但可以從女士的話(…at your office in the bank,They told me that you had quit：),也可以從男士的回答(The pay is better than in the bank…)中得出本題的正確答案。而a lawyer 僅僅是一個難度不大的干擾詞，考生只要聽懂now這一詞就可以排B)D)兩項與本題對話明顯無關。
