1. 读题干,预测对话内容
通过四个选项的对比和对关键词的研究,我们可以预测出对话的内容或将要提问到的问题,在听的过程中就会抓住重点。
2. 巧转换,避开设题陷阱
短对话虽然简短,但是对话中一般找不到现成的答案。出题者往往用对话中语句的同义语句设置选项,因此,在听的时候要注意对话的重点和提问的重点。如:
M: Was the movie as good as you expected?
W: It was a waste of time and money. We should have stayed at home.
Q: What did the woman think of the movie?
(《大学英语四级考试强化集训—听力理解》P30 第7题)
A)The movie is excellent.
B) The movie is not good.
C) She wants to see the movie again.
D) She doesn’t want to stay at home.
对话中"It was a waste of time and money. I should have stayed at home."(简直就是浪费时间和钱。我真该待在家里),这句话已婉转地表明她不喜欢这个电影,而对没有待在家里表示遗憾、后悔(should have done something这种结构可用来表示"对应该发生而实际上没有发生的事情表示遗憾、后悔或谴责)。能使他产生此感想的原因自然是"The movie is not good."(电影不好看),因而选项B是正确的答案。
离四级考试还有半个月的时间内,考生不能有丝毫的松懈,不能放松听力的训练。一分耕耘,一分收获。愿所有的考生能取得好成绩!
