英语四级听力短对话和长对话技巧

1英语四级听力短对话必考题型根据选项的内容，四级听力短对话可分为事实状况题、行为活动题、观点态度题、地点场景题、谈论话题型、身份关系题和数字信息题七大类。对话内容不同，提问的角度和方式也不同。 一、事实状况题问题是关于谈话的一方或双方说了什么、所处状态、做某事的原因何在、结果如何等。提问方式通常为：What do we learn from this conversation?What does the man mean?What can be inferred from the conversation?此类题型解题技巧如下：1.根据选项特点判断问题类型。这类题目的选项一般都是某种事实情况的陈述，选项中句子的时态以一般过去时或一般现在时居多。2.正确选项一般不会是原文的细节再现。这类题目往往需要考生根据对话内容推测出说话人话语中隐含的事实细节，因此正确选项往往不是对话中的原文照搬，而是对话内容的同义转述，或是根据对话内容推断出的事实细节。3.注意捕捉选项中的关键词。听音前应提取选项要点，确定听音时应该捕捉的重点内容。一般某事的原因或结果常为考查重点。4.对选项中及录音中涉及的关键信息进行标记，根据问题对号入座。这类题目涉及的是原文中的细节内容，因而有必要将关键信息点加以记录，然后根据问题确定答案。【真题示例 1】(07-6-13)A The man regrets being absent-minded.B The woman saved the man some trouble.2C The man placed the reading list on a desk.D The woman emptied the waste paper basket. M: I wish I hadnt thrown away that reading list!W: I thought you might regret it. Thats why I picked it up from the waste paper basket and left it on the desk.Q: What do we learn from the conversation?【解析】事实状况题。选项中的 the man，regret，trouble 等词表明，对话内容与男士做错某件事有关。根据女士的话可知，她从垃圾筐里把男士丢掉的阅读目录捡起来了，因此避免了男士的麻烦，由此可知答案为B。二、行为活动题问题是关于谈话的一方或双方做过、正在做、准备去做什么，或一方建议另一方去做什么。提问方式通常为：What will the man/woman most probably do?What are the speakers probably going/trying to do?What does the woman suggest doing?此类题型解题技巧如下：1.根据选项特点判断题型。一般来说，这类题目的选项都是动词短语形式，且动词一般为原形或动名词形式。2.听音时留意对话中的动词，尤其注意与选项中动词相关的信息。在留意动词的同时，要记录一些与该动词相关的重要信息，尤其是不止一个选项中的动词在对话中出现的时候，只有留意与其相关的信息，才能根据问题对号入座。3.注意表示请求或建议的句式或短语。行为活动类试题的对话中经常会包含提出请求或建议的句式或短语，如： Why dont you? What about? Lets; Youd better; If I were you, I would; Id like to; You might as well等，这此句式后面的内容有可能就是3建议去做或准备去做的行为活动，很可能与答案直接相关，因此听音时需重点留意。【真题示例 2】(06-6-5)A To find out more about the topic for the seminar.B To make a copy of the schedule for his friend.C To get the seminar schedule for the woman.D To pick up the woman from the library. W: Do you have the seminar schedule with you? Id like to find out the topic for Friday.M: I gave it to my friend, bur there should be copies available in the library. I can pick one up for you.Q: What does the man promise to do?【解析】行为活动题。本题是问男士答应做什么事。选项均以不定式形式开头，表明本题与目的行为有关。注意对话中的 pickup 不是表示“接(某人)”，而是表示“取(东西)” 。三、观点态度题问题是关于谈话一方对另一方或第三方的行为、品德、观点等的态度或评价。提问方式通常为：What does the woman/ man mean /imply?How does the woman /man feel about.?What does the woman/man think of?此类题型解题技巧如下：1.根据选项特点判断问题类型。观点态度类试题的选项中一般都含有一些引出观点态度的动词或短语，常见的有：think, believe, find, guess, imagine, consider, as far as I know 等。根据这类线索词判断出试题类型以后，可以更有针对地留意说话人对自己观点态度的陈述。2.熟悉表示观点态度的常见词语。4表示赞成：approve, agree, share, prefer, wise, reasonable, favorable表示反对：disapprove, disagree, unwise, ridiculous, foolish, childish表示赞赏：admire，appreciate，think much of, think highly of表示喜欢：love, enjoy, wonderful，fascinating, funny, be fond of, be keen on表示厌烦：dislike, bored/ boring, be tired of表示关心：concerned, careful, care about表示怨恨或生气：hate, hatred, angry, anger, initiated表示害怕或担心：fearful, frightened, worried, nervous表示批评或讽刺：critical, criticize, ironic，find fault with表示失望或灰心：disappointed, discouraged表示后悔或遗憾：regret, regretful, pity, shame表示漠然或热情：indifferent, detached, careless, enthusiastic表示积极或消极：active, positive, negative表示自信或自负：confident, arrogant, proud表示乐观或悲观：optimistic, pessimistic3.抓住对话中的一些标识性的词语。听音时应注意抓住一些表示因果、转折、比较或举例等逻辑关系的标识性的词语，如：but, instead, if, when, since, before, after, so 等，尤其是转折后的内容，往往表达作者的真实观点或态度，常为考查重点。4.把握说话人的语气。听音时应注意通过说话人的语气来判断说话人的态度，尤其是反问、疑问、感叹等语气，往往会明显地体现出说话人的态度或观点。【真题示例 3】(06-6-3)A The Edwards are quite well-off.5B The Edwards should cut down on their living expenses.C It'll be unwise for the Edwards to buy another house.D It's too expensive for the Edwards to live in their present house.M: How do you like the new physician who replaced Dr. Andrew?W: I hear that the Edwards are thinking of buying another house.M: Should they be doing that with all the other expenses they have to pay? Anyhow, they are over 70 now, their present house is not too bad.Q: What does the man imply?【解析】观点态度题。本题是问男士暗示什么。选项中 living expenses(生活开支)和 buy another house 表明对话应与 the Edwards 的生活开支和购房计划有关。对话中男士用反问语气(should they be doing?)表示反对意见 They shouldn't be doing(It'll be unwiseto do)。四、地点场景题问题是关于对话发生的场合、地点或者涉及到的人或事物所处的位置。提问方式通常为：Where is the conversation most probably taking place?Where are the two people?此类题型解题技巧如下：1.单个地点题：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。2.多个地点题：依赖笔记，留意提问中的核心词。这类题目对话中一般会提到几个地点，而就其中某一个进行提问，解题关键在于区分细节，对与选项相关的细节进行速记，并注意抓住提问中的核心词。3.熟悉常考的地点。6四级对话中常涉及的地点场景包括：诊所或医院(clinic or hospital) 餐馆(restaurant)学校或校园(school or campus) 书店 (bookstore)火车站 (railway station) 机场 (airport)图书馆 (library) 邮局(post office)银行(bank) 旅馆 (hotel)【真题示例 4】( 新 06-6-15)A At a clinic.B In a supermarket.C At a restaurant.D In an ice-cream shop.M: Ill have the steak, French Fries, and lets see, chocolate ice-cream for dessert.W: 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 most probably tak
