Q31，通过空前greater,预判音频中要定位提升，改良类答案句，company定位主体。

答案句：

And I’m sure a really significant development will be a major increase in competition，其中major increase主要的增长，对应题干上的greater，后competition为答案词。

拓展：compete-竞争;competitive-竞争的;competitor-竞争者，替换词rival;competition-竞争。

Q32,通过increase in power预测答案信息与增加变强有关，通过空后companies，预测答案信息为名词或形容词。

答案句：

Government are actually losing power to major global corporations.注意答案句主语为government，而题干主语为business markets，当政府在失去市场控制力时，市场本身就在增加自身针对global公司的控制力量，同时corporations与题干companies进行同意替换，答案词global。

拓展：听力中与company进行同意/近义替换的词有：firm, organization, enterprise, corporation.

Q33,通过空前rising，空后countries定位答案句。

答案句：

such as Indian, China, Brazil and Russia, demand is growing very fast.其中growing对应题干rising，demand为答案词。另一关键答案句定位词为a third point I want to make…，中的层次关系引导词，a third point。当题干之前出现子弹点(bullet point)，即31-33题之前出现的黑色小点，预测答案句出现之前可能出现表示层次关系的信号词或词组，如第一点，由firstly，to begin with, first of all等来引导，第二点由then, secondly等引导，第三点由thirdly，the third point is等引导，依此类推，考生跟住这些信号词组，更容易定位到答案句。

External influence on businesses.

Q34,通过空前more discussion with，以及空后business decisions定位答案句。

答案句：

In particular, companies are consulting customers more and more before making their business decisions.其中consulting(咨询) customers more and more对应题干more discussion，答案词customers/consumers。

Q35,通过空前environmental concern，lead to定位答案信息。

答案句：

Another influence is…定位到本题;And in some cases, regulation will need to be strengthened.其中need to be strengthened(需要被加强)对应题干lead to more。答案词regulation，管理。

Business structure

Q36,通过particular预测答案信息为非常规信息，即由especially, in particular, particularly, specialize, specific等词引导。

答案句：

I think we ‘re going to see a great emphasis within companies on teams created with a specific projects in mind.其中specific对应题干particular，答案词为project。

Q37,通过题干hours that are…预判答案句为休息hour的内容。

答案句：

Management styles

Q38,通过空前increasing need以及good定位答案句。

答案句：

Q39,题干译为改变被XX占据主导地位而影响。

答案句：
