四级听力长对话解题技巧

PART 1 听力新题型之新闻题

一，四级听力题型变化简介：

自2016年6月考试起，全国大学英语四、六级考试委员会将对四级考试的听力试题作局部调整。调整

的相关内容说明如下 1.取消短对话。 2.取消短文听写。

3.新增短篇新闻(3段)，每段设置2～3个小题，共7题，每小题1分，新闻长度130～190词。

4.长对话(2段)由原来的共7题调整为共8题，每小题1分，对话长度不变。 5.短文理解(3段)题型不变，分值由原来的每小题1分调整为每小题2分。 6.考试时间由原来的35分钟减为25分钟。 二，新闻英语文体特点 (-)新闻报道。六大要素。

新闻报道里的。六大要素。即常说的。人物(who)、时间(when)、地点(where)、事件(what)、原因(why)和方式(how)。。在英语短新闻或内容提要中至少包括其中三个要素who,what和when，这些是新闻报道中最具价值的三要素。 (二)倒金字塔结构

所谓倒金宇塔结构，也称为倒叙法，即按新闻事实重要程度由要点到细节逐步扩展，安排全文，倒金

字塔结构把最重要的事实置于全文的第一词中，即新闻导语(the news lead)。导语告知听众最新鲜、最关

心、最重要的事实，如事件(what)、时间(when)、地点(wher日、人物(who)以及原因(why)和方式(how)

新闻导语是对整条新闻内容的高度概括，听懂了导语，也就听懂了新闻的主要内容。当然，由于新闻报道

的侧重点不同，有时新闻导语可能只包含其中的几个要素。 (三)新闻英语词汇特点 1.常用词汇表示特殊含义

新闻报道常使用某些常见词汇来表达事实和事件，这些词汇经过长期使用逐渐取得与新闻报道相联系的特殊意义，成为新闻体词语(journalistic words)。例如，horror一词是新闻标题中常用的词，用以表示\不幸事故或暴力行动。，再如nadir常指。两国关系的最低点。。 2.大量使用缩略词

缩略词具有节省时间、新颖生动的特点，在英语新闻广播中广泛使用，主要是为了节省时间。在新闻广播中，一般在播出某个缩略的全称以后，再提到时就使用它的缩略词。 3.使用。小词。

小词(midget wolds)即简短词，一般为单音节词。小词在新闻英语中被广泛使用的原因一是报纸箱

有限，用小词可以免于移行，二是小词的词义范畴很广，比较生动灵活。新闻英语称这类词为synonyms of

all work(万能同义词)，如表示。破坏。或。损坏。的动词，一般会用一些较简短的词，如hit,harm,hurt或

ruin等又如表示。放弃。，一般会用drop,give up,quit或skip等表示。爆炸。之类的意义时，

一般会用blast, crash 或 smash 等. 4，地名、建筑物名称借用 在英语新闻中，我们时常会听到记者用各国首都名称代表国家或政府，用建筑物及街道名称代表有关政府机构. 如 WASHINGTON, July 25-The White House today threatened for the first time 1o... 此处WhiteHouse (白宫)代表美国政府。再如The Chinese Embassy in Washington criticized the Pentagon report八on Monday...此处Pentagon(五角大楼)代表美国国防部。 新闻听力解题技巧

PART 2听力考试之长对话

长对话题中，考生在考场上可以直接接触到的同样也只是每道题的四个选项，谈话内容与问题均在录音中出现，因此考生拿到考卷后应该从分析选项入手，遵循以下四个步骤答题： 第1步：快速浏览各题选项，注意相同或相关词语的重复出现，推测对话主题。 在没有听原文之前我们只能通过几个题的选项来“串”对话，猜测对话内容。根据各题选项中出现的相同或相关词语，可以推测出短文的大致主题，从而更容易、更准确地理解短文内容，并且可以有助于主旨题的解答。

第2步：按照题目顺序，推测问题类型及内容，确定听音时需要关注的主要信息点。 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，如均含有描述某人性格或某事特点的词语。通过这些选项特点及选项内容，我们便可以推测问题可能考查的核心内容，从而在听音时更有针对性。注意在推测问题时，应与主题联系起来，因为每一道问题都不会偏离主题;反过来结合几道题的考查核心，可以进一步确认主题内容。

第3步：集中精力听对话，抓取关键点必要时做适当笔记。

听音时应重点留意开头、结尾以及与选项相关的信息，并针对选项要点适当笔记。 第4步 ：根据提问内容，结合所做笔记，迅速得出答案。

英语听力长对话七大听前预测方法

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。 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。 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”。

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。 五、选项中含有比较结构

如果选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。 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。 七、意思相近的选项往往都不是答案

如果有两个选项意思明显相近，那么这两个选项往往都不是答案。

在四级考试的听力部分，共考查2组长对话，每组长对话包括6-10个话轮，对话后各有4个问题(两组共8个问题)。试卷上每题给出4个选项，考生需从中选出一个最佳答案。每段长对话及问题均只朗读一遍，每个问题后留有13-15秒答题时间。占总分的8%。
