英语四级听力各大题型解题方法

　　小对话(short conversations)

　　题目序号: 11-18 所占比例:8%

　　备考策略一：

　　做完真题分析听力原文时, 多总结同义替换(同根词以及同义词之间的替换)，比如hardly，barely，rarely，seldom等，并重点关注出现频率较多较难的短语,比如四级听力中考察过三次的短语stay awake.

　　例：[2010年6月第17题]

　　(A) Few students understand Prof. Johnson's lectures.

　　(B) Few students meet Prof. Jonson's requirements.

　　(C) Many students find Prof. Johnson's lectures boring.

　　(D) Many students have dropped Prof. Johnson's class.

　　听力原文：

　　W: You're taking a course with Professor Johnson. What's your impression so far?

　　M: Well, many students could hardly stay awake in his class without first drinking a cup of coffee.

　　Q: What does the man imply?

　　解析：通过听力原文中的划线句子,不难看出,正确答案为C选项.该结构曾在01年1月第5题和02年1月第9题中出现过，且均为考点。而当时是以barely able to stay awake的形式出现的。这就要求考生再去多总结一些同义替换，四级听力中类似表示否定的词，除了上文中出现过的hardly和barely，还常考的有rarely和seldom。多掌握些类似词和短语，很多小对话都能迎刃而解了。

　　备考策略二：

　　听力考试历来喜欢分场景进行考察。这就要求考生多去熟悉一些常见的场景词汇。例如校园，职场，机场，酒店，餐馆，健身房等场景的词汇。

　　例：[2009年12月第16题]

　　(A) She must have paid a lot for the gym.

　　(B) She is known to have a terrific figure.

　　(C) Her gym exercise has yielded good results.

　　(D) Her effort to keep fit is really praiseworthy.

　　听力原文：

　　W: I've been working out the gym since January. I was a bit out of shape.

　　M: You look terrific. It seems that your effort has paid off.

　　Q: What does the man imply about the woman?

　　解析：通过划线部分的听力原文不难看出正确选项为C，但这道题难点在于很多考生不认识诸如gym(健身房)，figure(身材)，work out(锻炼身体)，pay off(取得成功)等健身场景的词汇。

　　最后，小对话实在听不懂的情况下，考生采取避开那些明显被播读到的选项的方法，比直接从四个选项中蒙一个，正确概率相对要高一些。

　　例：[2010年12月第17题]

　　(A) He owns a piece of land in the downtown area.

　　(B) He has got enough money to buy a house.

　　(C) He can finally do what he has dreamed of.

　　(D) He is moving into a bigger apartment.

　　听力原文：

　　M: I did extremely well on the sale of my downtown apartment. Now, I have enough money to buy that piece of land I've had my eye on and build a house on it。

　　W: Congratulations!Does that mean you'll be moving soon?

　　Q: What do we learn about the man from the conversation?

　　解析：这道题的正确答案为C选项，另外三个选项均被明显播读，所以被排除。
