英语六级-听力口语关键句29. My husband has been transferred to Boston

29. My husband has been transferred to Boston and I understand your company has an opening there, too.

点睛　

transfer此处意为“（工作）调动”。understand此处应理解为“了解到”，其后的宾语从句说明了解到的具体内容，同时也是听音的关键所在。opening在句中意为“空缺的职位”。

考点归纳　

名词opening的常见含义还有：
“洞；缺口；通路”。如：
There were several openings to the cave. 去往这个洞穴有几条通路。
“开张，启用”。如：

“开始，开端”。如：
