大学英语四级听力答题技巧

1、大学英语四级听力答题技巧应在四级英语听力中,要想取得好的成绩,掌握一定的技巧是必须的,那么有哪些技巧是我们可以借鉴的呢,下面来看一下!1.英语学习者应该针对四级考试中听力理解的各个不同的题型,采取更加有效的答题技巧。新大学英语四级考试听力理解的题型主要有下面的几种:1.短对话(Short Dialogue;2.长对话(Long Conversation;3. 短文听力(Passage Listening;4.听写(Dictation。具体分析如下:2.1 短对话(Short Dialogue的答题技巧这部分试题一共有8 道试题,对话一般是有两个不同的说话者(two speakers进行问答或者

2、交流,然后由第三个说话者针对对话内容进行提问,提问形式一般是特殊疑问句的形式,问题主要涉及到对话的主题、人物关系、时间、地点、情节等,英语学习者要注意听懂双方对话中话语的隐含意义。在大学英语四级考试听力的考试过程中,英语学习者可以根据自己在听的时候的理解以及听之前的预测迅速地在题目的A,B,C,D 选项后面做一些自己明白的记号,比如在认为有可能成为答案的选项后面或者根本没有可能成为答案的选项后面分别做不同的记号,这样当听到问题的时候就可以很确定地选择答案。2.2 长对话(Long Conversation的答题技巧。这部分试题一共有7 道试题,两个长对话,和短对话一样,长对话的答案一般也是从上

3、面短对话的几个方面去考虑得出答案。要注意的是,有时候同一个长对话里的不同问题,答案可能从不同的方面得出。做这部分试题的时候,要注意以下几点:听音前,尽可能地把3 或者4道试题的选项浏览一遍,根据选项猜测可能出现的问题及提问方式。听音时,迅速抓住与选项及所猜测问题有关的关键词,速记有关内容或者在选项后面做记号,在有可能成为答案的选项后面做记号,在绝对没有可能成为答案的选项后面做记号,当然两种记号肯定应该不一样。听清问题,修正猜测问题,做出正确选择。另外在长对话中,由于问题不止一个,为了防止听了后面,忘了前面,因此在听的过程中,参照各题的选项,做一些简要的笔记,是很有用的,特别是听到数字、时间、年

4、龄、地点等问题时,简要的笔记尤其有用。2.3 短文听力(Passage Listening的答题技巧。这部分试题一共有10 道试题,有三个短文,每个短文之后可能会有3-4 个问题,短文听力部分的试题除了上面提到的长对话的解题方案外,平时还应加强阅读的训练,同时在考试中运用阅读的一些技巧。比如在听的过程中注意判断哪句话是主题句(topic sentence,在阅读中,我们了解主题句的位置,因此在听的时候就应该特别注意听开头句和结束句,从而确定主题句。地点题【试题特点】地点题提问的是对话发生的地点,常用的提问方式有:Where does the conversation most probably

5、 take place?Where does this conversation most likely occur?Where are the two speakers?【答题技巧】地点题的解答需要抓住与特定地点相关的常用词语。这类题目的对话中一般不会提到具体场所,问题往往要求根据对话内容推测出谈话场所或某人的去向。考生要注意抓取信息词,即与特定地点相关的最常用词语。其次,考生需要熟悉常考的地点和不同场景下人们的谈话用语,这对做好地点题很有帮助。关于不同场景下的常用词在第一节中已作了详细介绍,大家应该熟记这些场景和单词。【典型例题】【例7】A At a clinic. B In a supe

6、rmarket.C At a restaurant. D In an ice cream shop.W: Ill have the steak, French fries, and let s see, chocolate ice cream for dissert.M: Oh, oh, you know these things will ruin your health, too much fat and sugar, how about ordering some vegetables and fruit instead?Q: Where does the conversation mo

7、st probably take place?【解析】从四个选项中可以看出,本题是一道地点题。在对话中出现了该题的关键词dissert和ordering,因此可以判断这一对话应当发生在餐馆里面。2.人物关系或身份职业题【试题特点】(1对人物关系的提问人物关系题常用的提问方式有:Whats the probable relationship betwe en the two speakers?(2对人物职业的提问身份职业题常用的提问方式有:Who is the man/the woman?【答题技巧】在解答人物关系和身份职业题时,一定要注意双方的称呼语。对话中的称呼语往往会直接暴露出说话人的身份

8、或说话双方的关系,比如Mr.一词就表明对方很可能是自己的上级或老师。同时要善于捕捉关键词及人物语气。解答这类试题,不但要熟悉体现某种人物关系或某种职业的相关词汇,而且要注意说话人的语气和态度,比如师生之间、夫妻之间、家长与孩子之间以及老板与员工之间的说话方式和语气均有自己的特点。在短对话部分常考的职业身份有:教授(professor、秘书(secretary、医生(doctor、老板(boss、服务员(waiter/waitress、主人(host/hostess、修理工(repairer/plumber/electrician、家庭角色(husband/wife/son/daughter/g

9、irlfriend短对话部分涉及的人物关系包括:夫妻(husbandwife、父子(fatherson、母子(motherson、师生(teacherstudent、同学(schoolmate/ classmate、同事(colleague、老板与秘书(bosssecretary、雇主与雇员(employeremployee、医生与病人(doctorpatient、服务员与顾客(waiter/waitresscustomer、主人与客人(host/hostessguest、警察与司机(policemandriver、管理员与借阅者(librarianreader、房东与租房者(landlord

10、/landladytenant【典型例题】【例8】A A bank clerk. B A secretary. C A landlady. D A doctor.M: According to your ad. in this mornings paper, you have an apartment for rent.W: Yes, I have. Its on the second floor. Would you like to have a look? Come this way, please.Q: Who is the woman?【解析】从四个选项看,该题提问的是身份职业。从对话

11、中出现的关键词是an apartment for rent和ad.分析,录音中出现的男士和女士的关系应当是房东和租客的关系,因此这位女士应当是房东。3.数字计算题【题特点】数字计算题常见的提问方式有:What time?How far/long?How much/many?数字计算题一般涉及时间和价钱的运算。(1对活动发生时间的提问。在通常情况下,该类试题一般不会直接告诉我们问题中所问的时间,而是会涉及时间的一些简单的加减运算。要注意一些关键词,如:a quarter(to/past, half (past, daily, weekly, fortnight等。(2商品的价格。同样,在短对话中

12、,该类试题也涉及一些简单的加减乘除运算。要注意一些关键词,如:10% off, discount, double, half the price, couple, pair, dozen, a real bargain, on sale,change等。尤其要注意单件商品的价格,买多件商品是否优惠、找零,以及最后的问题是说话人要付的钱、单件商品的价格,还是买若干商品需要付的钱。【答题技巧】速记信息。这类题目的对话中一般都不会只出现一个数字,因此一定要对出现的数字及相关要点信息进行速记。听清问题。做这类题目时,必须清楚地抓住问题是针对什么提问,然后才能根据记录的信息将答案对号入座。不要直取答案。

13、这类题目的答案一般都不会是原文中数字信息的再现,往往需要经过简单的运算才能得出答案。【典型例题】【例9】A $ 8.60. B $ 4.30. C $ 6.40. D $ 1.40.W: Heres a ten-dollar bill. Give me two tickets for tonights show, please.M: Sure. Two tickets and here's a dollar forty cents change.Q: How much does one ticket cost?【解析】在听对话的过程中需要对听到的几个数字进行速记:ten-dollar

14、bill, two tickets, a dollar forty cents change,通过对这几个数字的运算可以得到试题的正确答案B。新四级英语听力的解题技巧1.对话根据对话听力的设题特点,我认为在解答对话听力理解题时同学们应注意以下几点:1提前阅读选项,判断问题所属,从而集中精力于有关信息。2注意根据信息词汇判断地点和说话人的身份职业等。当同学们看到四个地点和职业名词时,大脑中就应该马上出现与这些地点或职业相关的一系列词语,在听的过程中注意提到了什么信息词语,这样就可轻松地判断谈话发生的地点,说话人的职业或身份,以及谈话双方的关系。为此,同学们有必要了解与各种职业和地点行业有关的信息

15、词汇,如:饭店:menu, order, waitress, waiter, take order, go Dutch, It's my treat等;旅馆:check in/out, make a reservation, register, reception desk等;医院:physician, doctor, nurse, operation-room, emergency room, visiting hours, prescribe, pill等;银行:open an account, withdraw, deposit, saving, cash a check等;飞机

16、/机场:flight, safety-belt, boarding card, captain, airhostess, airline, take off, land, crash等。有关信息词汇同学们可以参看四级英语听力分册,这里就不再一一列举。3注意加减运算,听到的不是答案在涉及时间、距离、金钱等数量概念的听力中,一般都要求同学们进行加减方面的运算,很少是听到什么就是什么。有时,计算可能会麻烦些,同学们可以先将听到的时间等记下,等有时间再计算。在计算题中应特别注意以下数字的读音差别:13-30 14-40 15 - 50 16 - 60 17 -70 18 -80 19 -90选项中会有

17、这种数字读音差别的考查。如:W: when does the next train leave?M: You have just missed one by 5 minutes. Trains leave every 50minutes, so you'll have to wait for a while.Q: How long does the woman have to wait for the next train?A. 45 minutes.B. 50 minutes.C. 10 minutes.D. 5 minutes.如果把50minutes 听成了15 minutes,

18、就会误选选项C。4注意记笔记,将人物、地点、时间等对号入座听力测试中的另外一种现象就是,四个选项中的人物、地点、时间或事件等在对话中可能都有提及。在这种情况下,同学们所需要的不是寻找信息词,而是注意将四个选项与对话中提及的信息对号入座。如: W: Do you enjoy life in Washington?M: Yes, indeed. I'm planning to move to New York or Boston.Anyway, I've never regretted my earlier decision.Q: Where does the man live n

19、ow?A. In New York.B. In BostonC. In NewportD. In Washington四个地点对话中提到了三个,具体是哪一个,同学们在听的时候应注意分辨。M:Please buy two packs of cigarettes for me while you are at the store.W:I am not going to any store. I'm going to see Aunt Mary. But Iwill get them for you at the gas station.Q:Where will the woman stop

20、 on her way?A. At a cigarette store.B. At a bus station.C. At a gas station.D. At Aunt Mary'sM:I'd like to make two reservations on Flight 651 for June 8th.W:I'm sorry, we're booked up on the 8th. But we still have a fewseats available on June 9th.Q:When does the man want to leave?A.

21、 On the 6th of June.B. On the 8th of June.C. On the 9th of June.D. On the 19th of June如果地点不含职业性的对比,一般就很可能属于这里所介绍的类型,那么同学们所做的就是分别。5从语法入手、从短语含义入手,判断隐含之意在四级听力中常考查到的语法是建议和虚拟语气。要求同学们判断建议是什么,虚拟中含义是什么。就建议而言,同学们只需注意建议的各种表达方式,就可解答这类听力题;至于虚拟语气,我想同学们可以记住这样一条规律:与所听到的相反的就是答案。6 概括与具体,具体与抽象相对,概括的、抽象的是解这类题主要是话题的选择,

22、也包括一些对整个事件的评价等。如: W: We all talk about how liberated we are, but in fact woman are still not treated equally.M:I don't think so. You've got the vote, you've got your careersI think you've got everything important.Q: What are they talking about?A. The woman's job as a librarian.B.

23、 Woman's rights in society.C. An important election.D. Career planning.谈论的话题应是一个抽象的概括性的东西,所以答案是B。M: This has been the worst flood for the past 20 years. It has caused much damage and destruction.W: Look at the price of fruits and vegetables. No wonder they are expensive. Q: What are they talking

24、 about?A. The effects of the flood.B. The heroic fight against flood.C. The cause of the flood.D. Floods of the past twenty years.能够概括对话中物价上涨的应该是A。7肯定与不肯定相对,含义不肯定的是解这一技巧用于解答说话者言外之意的听力题。如:W:I intend to buy some fruits for the children. These apples andpears seem to be in season. I'll get two doze

25、n of each.M: I hope they're as good as they look.Q: What does the man mean?A. The apples and pears might no be so good.B. The apples are not as good as the pears.C. The apples and pears are very good.D. The apples and pears are as good as they look.hope的使用说明答案应该是不太可能的选项,自然是A。W: If this weather k

26、eeps up, I'm going to have to buy a warmer coat.M: Sounds like a good idea. Spring is still a long way off, you know.Q: What does the man mean?A. The woman should wait to buy new clothes.B. The cold weather will probably continue.C. The weather will warm up soon.D. He already has a warm coat.Sou

27、nds like a good idea说明了语气的不可能,答案应该是B。8"同意"是解一般情况下,如果四个选项中有一个表示"同意"的概念,那么,此选项就是正确选项。如: W: It's a wonderful film, isn't it?M: You can say that again.Q: What does the man mean?A. He agrees with the woman.B. He didn't hear what the woman said.C. He is surprised by her opi

28、nion.D. He thinks she should look at it again. M: This is the longest assignment we've had all semester.W: You're telling me. We'll be lucky if we can do half of it.Q: What does the woman say about the assignment?A. She has done half of it already.B. She agrees that it is very long.C. Th

29、ey have all semester to do it.D. There's nothing wrong with it.请同学们注意以下表示同意对方观点的常用语。如果听到这些,就可以选择含有"同意"的选项:You said it.You can say that again.You are telling me.You may/might well say so.I'll say.I couldn't agree more.2.短文根据短文听力的特点,同学们可以做以下工作。1注意把握首尾句,从整体上理解全文,这同样有利于主题题的解答。2听前阅读

30、选项,增加听的目的性和针对性。3听时记笔记,以掌握文章的主要细节内容。4根据不同的听力材料采用不同的听力技巧。如故事性的文章一般可以边听边划答案,标出故事中提到的信息;说明文要注意要说明的主题是什么,支撑细节有哪些。5做完后通读所有答案,看是否能相互说明,成为一个整体。3.复合式听写在前面我已经给大家介绍了复合式听写中可以运用的一些技巧。复合式听写很大程度上利用了完形填空的词汇和篇章技巧,同时在有三题中又运用了写作的技法。但是否能够以适当的语言准确地补全短文所缺信息,不是技巧本身所能做到的,需要同学们平时加强这方面的训练。以上简要分析了四级听力测试的特点和可以运用的一些方法技巧。但是,听力能力

31、的发展不是一朝一夕可练就的,更不是知道几个小窍门就能解决问题的。希望同学们结合四级考试听力测试的特点,有针对性地强化训练,同时注意解题的技巧,可望在短时间之内有个突破。短对话听力的一些原则1.推理原则:一般需对对话进行推理,故直接在对话中听到的一般不是正确答案。2.挫折原则:通常要办的事情都是不顺利的(如买东西买不到,订房间客满等3.男女原则:一般男生比较衰,女生比较牛。男生提出的观点女生都是不同意或有不同看法的,反之女生提出的观点男生都是同意和赞赏的。男生的特征:脏、乱、差、浪费、穷、小气、不良习惯、迟钝、不顾家女生的特征:爱干净、节约、富有、好学、能干、聪明、大度、耐心、恋家、除数理化外成

32、绩都很好4.父母一般只有一个作用教育子女好好学习5.除了父母教育子女外,家里(包括朋友家,阿姨家等等发生的事情一般是不考的,故遇到地点推测题类似at home / at Marys home之类的选项一般都是不对的。6.四级听力短对话只考日常生活学习中遇得到事情,问题,故如果选项中出现一些日常生活中不太可能发生或很少发生的事情一般不会是正确选项短对话十大场景及一般思路1.借车:车一般是借不到的2.吃:匹萨,海鲜吃了一般会有不适反应,“派”一般比较好吃3.考试:作业、论文一般比较难,或须要熬夜;教授一般比较严厉;选修课较难较多4.坐车(飞机、轮船:一般都需要等5.事故(灾难:光明原则,一般不会死

33、人6.听讲座:题目一般是比较有趣丰富的,内容一般是比较复杂难懂的7.论文:一般需要修改(polish或重写(rewrite8.休闲:男生一般喜欢待在家里看TV或者看moive,女生一般喜欢高雅艺术如theater9.医院:需要预约make an appointment10买票:基本上是买不到的听力题中很多选项都有比较明显的特点,或者使用某种专门的表达形式,如均为动词原形或均为人物角色等;或者含有一些标志性的词语,通过这些选项特点我们便可以推测问题可能考查的核心内容;另外,我们经常可以通过对选项的分析,排除一些比较明显的干扰性,缩小听音范围,从而在听音时更有针对性。一、各题主题揭示对话主题将各题

34、所考查的主题内容结合在一起,往往可得出整篇对话的主题。如果某一题目是考查对话主题,其中的一个选项明显能够概括其他各题选项的内容,那么该选项很可能为答案。【例1】(710分样卷Conversation One【预览选项】19. ATo interview a few job applicants.BTo fill a vacancy in the company.C To advertise for a junior sales manager.D To apply for a job in a major newspaper.20. AA hard working ambitious youn

ANot clearly specified.BNot likely to be met.CReasonable enough.DApparently sexist.【听前预测】预览三道题各选项,由19题中的interview, applicants, vacancy, advertise

36、 for a manager, apply for a job 等词语可以推测对话与刊登招聘广告或应聘工作有关。而20题中hardworking, ambitious, good at managing his time, with practical working experience, with his own idea 等词语则表明对话中还涉及到对所招聘人员的要求。二、选项均以动词的某种形式开头含有这类选项的问题为考查“行为活动”类型。根据动词的不同形式,问题考查的重点也可能不同。选项均以动词原形开头,问题大多是关于建议某人做某事,有时也表示为了而某种目的而要做某事。选项均为动名词,问

37、题大多是关于正在进行的动作或者计划打算。选项为不定式,问题很可能是关于做某事的目的,或是计划、承诺或要求做某事。【例2】(新06-12- -20【预览选项】A File a lawsuit against the man.B Ask the man for compensation.C Have the mans apple tree cut down.D Throw garbage into the mans yard.【听前预测】选项均为动词原形,故本题应该是考查某人的行为活动。四个选项均是针对男士的行为,故本题很可能是关于某人与男士发生争吵或冲突时所采取的应对措施。【听音验证】W: Ge

38、t the branches off my property or Ill have to sue you.M: Yeah? For what?! Youre taking those law classes too seriously! Ive gotta go, I have to pick up my son.21.

39、 for a junior sales manager.D To apply for a job in a major newspaper.【听前预测】选项均为不定式短语,故本题应该是考查某人将要采取的行动。 A 、 C 是关于招聘工作(interview, advertise, B 、 D则是关于申请工作(fill, apply for,故听音时应留意该行为是关于招聘还是应聘。【听音验证】M: Morning, Brenda.W: Good morning, Mr. Browning.M: Er, did you, did you put that ad in yesterday?W: Ye

40、s, yesterday afternoon.M: The ad for a junior sales manager, I mean.19. What did Mr. Browning ask Brenda to do?三、选项中含有表示意愿或建议的词如果选项中含有should, had better, would like等一类的词语,问题很可能是考查“观点或建议”。【例4】(新06-12-25【预览选项】A Accurate communication is of utmost importance.B Pilots should be able to speak several for

41、eign languages.C Air controllers should keep a close watch on the weather.D Cooperation between pilots and air controllers is essential.【听前预测】由选项中的should可推知,本题应该是考查某人的观点或建议。选项内容表明问题应该与确保安全飞行的因素有关。【听音验证】M: Sadly enough, yes they did. It was a really bad mistake. Many people died as a result of the si

42、mple misunderstanding.W: Wow, thats a powerful lesson on how important it can be to accurately communicate to each other.25. What lesson could be drawn from the accident?四、选项中含有表示评论或感受的动词如果选项中含有think, like, dislike, enjoy, agree, disagree, mind等一类的词语,听力材料或问题很可能是关于对某人或某事物的评价或感受。四个选项中如均含有表示评论或感受的词,则表示

43、问题是关于对人或事物的评价或感受;如其中只有个别选项含有表示评论或感受的词,则表示听力材料中很可能涉及到对人或事物的评价或感受,问题内容则不一定会涉及。【例5】(710分样卷-21【预览选项】ANot clearly specified.BNot likely to be met.CReasonable enough.DApparently sexist.【听前预测】四个选项中均含有表示评论的词语(specified, reasonable等,故问题很可能是关于某人对某事物的看法。【听音验证】W: Yes, erm, what sort of education are you actuall

44、y looking for?M: Well, you know, a couple of A levels. Must have English, of course.W: Yes, I think youre asking quite a lot.

What does Brenda think of the qualifications Mr. Browning insists on?五、选项中含有比较结构如果选

46、项中含有形容词或副词的比较级或最高级,或是其他表示比较的词语,则听力材料或问题很可能涉及人或事物之间的异同点或优劣的比较。四个选项中如均含有比较级或表示比较的词,则表示问题是关于人或事物之间的比较;如其中只有个别选项中含有比较级,则表示听力材料中很可能涉及到人或事物之间的比较,问题内容则不一定会涉及。【例6】(710分样卷-22【预览选项】A Their competitors have long been advertising on TV.BTV commercials are less expensive.C Advertising in newspapers alone is not

47、sufficient.D TV commercials attract more investments.【听前预测】由选项中的advertising on TV,advertising in newspapers以及比较级less expensive, attract more可知本题很可能涉及到电视广告和报纸广告之间优劣的比较。故听音时应留意比较级或其他陈述二者优劣特点的词句。【听音验证】W: Marketing has some interesting ideas for television commercials.M: TV? Isn't that a bit too exp

48、ensive for us? What's wrong with advertising in the papers, as usual?W: Quite frankly, it's just not enough anymore.22. Why does the woman suggest advertising on TV?六、选项均为名词性短语如选项均为概括性较强的名词或是名词性的短语,且各项内容差异较大,问题则很可能是关于对话所谈论的主题或对话中出现的某一事件或问题的主题。【例7】(710分样卷-22【预览选项】AThe latest developments of a

49、n armed rebellion in Karnak.BThe fall of Karnaks capital city into the hands of the rebel forces.CThe epidemic that has just broken out in the country of Karnak.DThe peace talks between the rebels and the government in Karnak.【听前预测】选项均为名词短语,且概括性均较强,故本题很可能考查对话的主旨。由armed rebellion,the rebel forces,pea

50、ce talks between the rebels and the government 等词以及多次出现的Karnak可推知本对话很可能与Karnak国反政府武装叛乱有关。【听音验证】W: We now interrupt our regular scheduled news program to bring you live up-to-date coverage on the civil unrest in the newly formed country of Karnak, where our man Stan Fielding is stationed. Stan .M: Th

51、is is Stan Fielding reporting live from the suburbs of the capital city. Just 20 minutes ago, rebel forces launched the biggest offensive against the ruling government in the 18- month conflict here in this country.22.What is the news coverage mainly about?七、与对话主题或其余选项内容不同的选项往往不是答案如果某一选项明显与对话主题不相关,那

52、么该选项往往不是答案。如果某一选项明显与其他三个选项内容不同,即与该题主题明显不相关的选项往往不是答案。【例8】(新06-12- 19【预览选项】19. A He picked up some apples in his yard.B He cut some branches off the apple tree.C He quarreled with his neighbor over the fence.D He cleaned up all the garbage in the womans yard.20.

54、s not prepared to go to court.C He was not intimidated.D He was a bit concerned.【听前预测】由各选项中的apple, tree, yard, branches, trim(修剪等词可推知对话主题应该与苹果树枝条和院子有关,再根据选项中出现的quarreled, lawsuit(诉讼, compensation(赔偿, concession(让步, court(法庭等词可推知对话还可能涉及到对话双方的争吵。19题各选项中谓语动词的过去式形式表明本题应该是考查男士过去的活动。A、B、C均与苹果树和院子有关,只有C是关于

55、fence(栅栏,与其他三项内容差别较大,且与其他各题选项内容均不相关,故C为答案的可能性较小。【听音验证】W: Hello, Patrick, is that you?M: Yeah, Jane, what can I do for you?W: I was calling about the apple tree that you were trimming yesterday.M: That was hard work!【答案解析】19. What did the man do yesterday?【解析】选B。由女士话中的the apple tree that you were tri

56、mming yesterday可知男士昨天给苹果树剪枝了。trim意为“修剪,修整”。八、包含其他选项内容的选项往往不是答案有的选项明显包含其他选项的含义,那么该选项往往不是答案。【例9】(托福【预览选项】A She was impressed by it.B It was a waste of money.C She was amazed it had opened so soon.D She didnt like it as much as the other wings.【听前预测】由选项中的impressed,a waste of money, amazed, like 等可推知本题是针对对某事物的看法设题的。选项A说“it”给她留下了深刻印
