大学英语四级考试试点考试样卷(听力文字稿) Tape Script of Listening Comprehension Section A Directions: In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conversations. At the end of each conversation, one or more questions will be asked about what was said. Both the conversation and the questions will be spoken only once. After each question there will be a pause. During the pause, you must read the four choices marked A), B), C) and D), and decide which is the best answer. Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. 11. W: Simon, could you return the tools I lent you for building the bookshelf last month? M: Uh, well, I hate to tell you this … but I can’t seem to find them. Q: What do we learn from the conversation? 12. W: I’m going to Martha’s house. I have a paper to complete, and I need to use her computer. M: Why don’t you buy one yourself? Think how much time you could save. Q: What does the man suggest the woman do? 13. W: Bob said that Seattle is a great place for conferences. M: He’s certainly in a position to make that comment. He’s been there so often. Q: What does the man say about Bob? 14. W: Mr. Watson, I wonder whether it’s possible for me to take a vacation early next month . M: Did you fill out a request form? Q: What is the probable relationship between the two speakers? 15. M: Do you want to go to the lecture this weekend? I hear the guy who’s going to deliver the lecture spent a year living in the rain forest. W: Great! I’m doing a report on the rain forest. Maybe I can get some new information to add to it. Q: What does the woman mean? 16. W: Wow! I do like this campus: all the big trees, the green lawns, and the old buildings with tall columns . It’s really beautiful. M: It sure is. The architecture of these buildings is in the Greek style. It was popular in the eighteenth century here. Q: What are the speakers talking about? 17. M: This article is nothing but advertising for housing developers. I don’t think the houses for sale are half that good. W: Come on, David. Why so negative? We’re thinking of buying a home, aren’t we? Just a trip to look at the place won’t cost us much. Q: What can be inferred from the conversation? 18. M: Would you pass me the sports section, please? W: Sure, if you give me the classified ads and local news section. Q: What are the speakers doing? Now you’ll hear two long conversations. Conversation One W: Hello, Gary. How’re you? M: Fine! And yourself? W: Can’t complain. Did you have time to look at my proposal? M: No, not really. Can we go over it now? W: Sure. I’ve been trying to come up with some new production and advertising strategies. First of all, if we want to stay competitive, we need to modernize our factory. New equipment should’ve been installed long ago. M: How much will that cost? W: We have several options ranging from one hundred thousand dollars all the way up to half a million. M: OK. We’ll have to discuss these costs with finance. W: We should also consider human resources. I’ve been talking to personnel as well as our staff at the factory. M: And what’s the picture? W: We’ll probably have to hire a couple of engineers to help us modernize the factory. M: What about advertising? W: Marketing has some interesting ideas for television commercials. M: TV? Isn’t that a bit too expensive for us? What’s wrong with advertising in the papers, as usual? W: Quite frankly, it’s just not enough anymore. We need to be more aggressive in order to keep ahead of our competitors. M: Will we be able to afford all this? W: I’ll look into it, but I think higher costs will be justified. These investments will result in higher profits for our company. M: We’ll have to look at the figures more closely. Have finance draw up a budget for these investments. W: All right. I’ll see to it. Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard. • What are the two speakers talking about? • What does the woman say about the equipment of their factory? • What does the woman suggest about human resources? • Why does the woman suggest advertising on TV? Conversation Two W: Sir, you’ve been using the online catalogue for quite a while. Is there anything I can do to help you? M: Well, I’ve got to write a paper about Hollywood in the 30s and 40s, and I’m really struggling. There are hundreds of books, and I just don’t know where to begin. W: Your topic sounds pretty big. Why don’t you narrow it down to something like … uh … the history of the studios during that time? M: You know, I was thinking about doing that, but more than 30 books came up when I typed in “movie studios.” W: You could cut that down even further by listing the specific years you want. Try adding “1930s” or “1940s” or maybe “Golden Age.” M: “Golden Age” is a good idea. Let me type that in …. Hey, look, just 6 books this time. That’s a lot better. W: Oh … another thing you might consider … have you tried looking for any magazine or newspaper articles? M: No, I’ve only been searching for books. W: Well, you can look up magazine articles in the Reader’s Guide to Periodical Literature . And we do have the Los Angeles Times available over there. You might go through their indexes to see if there’s anything you want. M: Okay. I think I’ll get started with these books and then I’ll go over the magazines. W: If you need any help, I’ll be over at the Reference Desk. M: Great, thanks a lot. Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard. • What is the man doing? • What does the librarian think of the topic the man is working on? • Where can the man find the relevant magazine articles? Section B Directions: In this section, you will hear 3 short passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. Passage One In the next few decades people are going to travel very differently from the way they do today. Everyone is going to drive electrically powered cars. So in a few years people won’t worry about running out of gas. Some of the large automobile companies are really moving ahead with this new technology. F & C Motors, a major auto company, for example, is holding a press conference next week. At the press conference the company will present its new, electronically operated models. Transportation in the future won’t be limited to the ground. Many people predict that traffic will quickly move to the sky. In the coming years, instead of radio reports about road conditions and highway traffic, news reports will talk about traffic jams in the sky. But the sky isn’t the limit. In the future, you’ll probably even be able to take a trip to the moon. Instead of listening to regular airplane announcements, you’ll hear someone say, “The spacecraft to the moon leaves in ten minutes. Please check your equipment. And remember, no more than ten ounces of carry-on baggage are allowed.” Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard. • What will be used to power cars in the next few decades? • What will future news reports focus on when talking about transportation? • What is the special requirement for passengers traveling to the moon? Passage Two The period of engagement is the time between the marriage proposal and the wedding ceremony. Two people agree to marry when they decide to spend their lives together. The man usually gives the woman a diamond engagement ring. That tradition is said to have started when an Austrian man gave a diamond ring to the woman he wanted to marry. The diamond represented beauty. He placed it on the third finger of her left hand. He chose that finger because it was thought that a blood vessel in that finger went directly to the heart. Today, we know that this is not true. Yet the tradition continues. Americans generally are engaged for a period of about one year if they are planning a wedding ceremony and party. During this time, friends of the bride may hold a party at which women friends and family members give the bride gifts that she will need as a wife. These could include cooking equipment or new clothing. Friends of the man who is getting married may have a bachelor party for him. This usually takes place the night before the wedding. Only men are invited to the bachelor party. During the marriage ceremony, the bride and her would-be husband usually exchange gold rings that represent the idea that their union will continue forever. The wife often wears both the wedding ring and engagement ring on the same finger. The husband wears his ring on the third finger of his left hand. Many people say the purpose of the engagement period is to permit enough time to plan the wedding. But the main purpose is to let enough time pass so the two people are sure they want to marry each other. Either person may decide to break the engagement. If this happens, the woman usually returns the ring to the man; they also return any wedding gifts they have received. Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard. • What was the diamond ring said to represent? • Why did the Austrian man place the diamond ring on the third finger of the left hand of his would-be wife? • What is the chief advantage of having the engagement period? Passage Three “Where is the university?” is a question many visitors to Cambridge ask, but no one could point them in any one direction because there is no campus. The university consists of thirty-one self-governing colleges. It has lecture halls, libraries, laboratories, museums and offices throughout the city. Individual colleges choose their own students, who have to meet the minimum entrance requirements set by the university. Undergraduates usually live and study in their colleges, where they are taught in very small groups. Lectures, and laboratory and practical work are organized by the university and held in university buildings. There are over 10,000 undergraduates and 3,500 postgraduates. About forty percent of them are women and some eight percent from overseas. As well as teaching, research is of major importance. Since the beginning of the 20th century more than sixty university members have won Nobel prizes. The university has a huge number of buildings for teaching and research. It has more than sixty specialist subject libraries, as well as the University Library, which, as a copyright library, is entitled to a copy of every book published in Britain. Examinations are set and degrees are awarded by the university. It allowed women to take the university exams in 1881, but it was not until 1948 that they were awarded degrees. Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard. • Why is it difficult for visitors to locate Cambridge University? • What does the passage tell us about the colleges of Cambridge University? • What can be learned from the passage about the libraries in Cambridge University? • What does the passage say about women students in Cambridge University? Section C Directions: In this section, you will hear a passage three times. When the passage is read for the first time, you should listen carefully for its general idea. When the passage is read for the second time, you are required to fill in the blanks numbered from 36 to 43 with the exact words you have just heard. For blanks numbered from 44 to 46 you are required to fill in the missing information. For these blanks, you can either use the exact words you have just heard or write down the main points in your own words. Finally, when the passage is read for the third time, you should check what you have written. Russia is the largest economic power that is not a member of the World Trade Organization. But that may change. Last Friday, the European Union said it would support Russia’s (36) effort to become a W.T.O. member. Representatives of the European Union met with Russian (37) officials in Moscow. They signed a trade agreement that took six years to (38) negotiate . Russia called the trade agreement (39) balanced . It agreed to slowly increase fuel prices within the country. It also agreed to permit (40) competition in its communications industry and to remove some barriers to trade. In (41) exchange for European support to join the W.T.O., Russian President Putin said that Russia would speed up the (42) process to approve the Kyoto Protocol, an international (43) environmental agreement to reduce the production of harmful industrial gases. (44) These “greenhouse gases” trap heat in the atmosphere and are blamed for changing the world’s climate . Russia had signed the Kyoto Protocol, but has not yet approved it. The agreement takes effect when it has been approved by nations that produce at least 55 percent of the world’s greenhouse gases . (45) But currently, nations producing only 44 percent have approved the Protocol. Russia produces about 17 percent of the world’s greenhouse gases . The United States, the world’s biggest producer, withdrew from the Kyoto Protocol after President Bush took office in 2001. So, Russia’s approval is required to put the Kyoto Protocol into effect. (46) To join the W.T.O., a country must reach trade agreements with major trading countries that are also W.T.O. members . Russia must still reach agreements with China, Japan, South Korea and the United States.
英语四级听力真题都听不懂怎么办
听力需要平时多背课文,听听力,我现在就是这样,几乎每天听两套题,平时背课文,记单词,最初听力真题能够错一大半,可是听了一个多月现在只会错几个,这都是多听的结果,我们老师也给我们说,提高听力的最好方法就是多听,多做,没有捷径的.并且英语基础不好的,在学习的时候一定要相信自己可以提上去,虽然看到自己做错很多题的时候很难受,但是还是要相信自己.平时需要多加练习啊
英语四级听力
考试复习时间所剩无几,基于复习时间已经很有限,目前的重点应该是8套左右的真题,年代太久远了也没用。争取每做一套,提高2-3分左右。这个提高是基于技巧和对阵题的感觉的把握上的,基本上,到了这个阶段,听力是不大可能有很大的提高。因此不要奢望最后两周忽然爆发式的得分。需要注意的仅仅是是技巧,以及中间部分对出题者思路的把握。 我要高分
对于听力部分,个人认为,你把前面年份的听力都听懂、摸熟了,等到的分数,基本就是你今年能拿的分数了。所以,每天花半个小时自测或者自测后晚上自己再听几遍,基本就不需要再花什么功夫了。如果真的需要,请注意如下几方面:
做题技巧:做完快速阅读离听力开始还有五分钟,在这五分钟内老师会把你的答题卡1收上去,然后我们要做的就是浏览听力的所有选项。这段时间是充分发挥你记忆力的时候,记住的选项越多越好。加了长对话和复合式听写之后听力时间变长了,很容易让人觉得疲惫,所以听力的时候一定要保持最佳状态。
一、卷子发下来后快速的浏览一遍,包括题干和答案。这样会大大提高你对听力的理解——知道它是讲什么内容,大概是怎么回事。这个时候不要去写考号什么的。尽管留到交卷时写好了。
二、没听懂的题目,就放弃它,千万不要听下道题的时候还在想上道题。这样会引起头脑里面的混乱。如果引起连锁反应那你的复习就全白费了。
三、相信第一感觉,听力部分不是非常确凿的感觉的话不要改动开始的答案。人的脑袋有时候会混淆的。因此很多情况下不是你选错了,而是改错了。因此轻易别选,但是选了之后轻易别改。
四、赴考之前先检查耳机工作否。试音的时候把音量什么的调好就行了。其它的时间用来看卷子内容。
五、复合式听写的句子部分是得分大户,也是丢分大户,一定注意听懂再写,以句子为单位而不是以单词为单位去写。写出主要意思即可。不会写的单词要用同义词来替换。
现在教你四六级听力如何在听不懂时,照样拿180分以上
第一招:相关保留原则
当选项中有两项表达意思相近时,那么正确答案必在这两项之中!这时只需稍微听一听对话,即可知答案,如果出现了双重相关,便可直接确认正确选项,只需听完对话加之认证一下即可!
典型例题:
4. A) Visiting the Browning.
B) Writing a postcard.
C) Looking for a postcard.
D) Filling in a form.
例题分析:B、C两项均含有 a poscard ,B、D两项均含有写…之意,即B、C和B、D构成双重相关,即可得出B为正确选项!
本题听力原文:
4. M: What\’s the matter? You\’ve been sitting there for ages, just staring into space.
W: I told the Browning I\’d send them a postcard. Now I don\’t know what to say.
Q: What\’s the woman doing?
第二招:异项保留原则
当选项中出现有意思明显相反的两项时,那么正确答案必在此二项中出现!如果出现双重异项,那么即可判断出正确答案,异项保留原则在六级考试听力短对话中应用广泛!
典型例题:
6. A) She can’t finish her assignment, either.
B) She can’t afford a computer right now.
C) The man can use her computer.
D) The man should buy a computer right away.
例题分析:A、B异项,A项的意思是她现在有电脑,B项的意思则是她现在没有电脑。B、D异项,B是说女方无电脑,而D是说男方无电脑,男女也是一种反意关系。所以根据双重异项原则可确定正确答案为B项!
本题听力原文:
6. M: I\’m frustrated. We\’re supposed to do our assignment on the computer, but I have difficulty getting access to the computers in the library.
W: I understand the way you feel. I\’m looking forward to the day when I can afford to get my own.
Q: What does the woman mean?
第三招:女士保留原则
做题做多了,我们应该了解西方人的思维方式,当对话中出现女士的建议和要求时,我们一定要注意,这时女士说出来的话很可能就是正确选项的异意!因为女士经常以女神的形象出面,她们代表的是美好、正面、阳光的信息!
典型例题:
9. A) The man should stick to what he’s doing.
B) The man should take up a new hobby.
C) The man should stop playing tennis.
D) The man should find the cause for his failure.
例题分析:通过选项我们可以分析出男人做一些事情遇到了困难,这时一位女人出来安慰男人,根据女神原则可知女人一定会让男人坚持把这件事情做下去,而不要放弃,这样的题型太多了,所以可呈现出一定的规律性!
本题听力原文:
9. M: I think I\’m going to give up playing tennis. I lost again today.
W: Just because you lost? It that the reason to quit?
Q: What does the woman imply?
第四招:概括、抽象保留原则
当选项中出现比较概括、抽象的句子时,这时我们就要把表述事实的、具体的句子划掉,而去选择表概、抽象、比较性的句子!此原则可衍生出一个包含取大的原则,在作题时应用也是十分的广泛,一般当两个选项的意思接近时,表述比较全面的一般为正确选项!
典型例题:
7. A) The visiting economist has given several lectures.
B) The guest lecturer’s opinion is different from Dr. Johnson’s.
C) Dr. Johnson and the guest speaker were schoolmates.
D) Dr. Johnson invited the economist to visit their college
例题分析:A、C、D均为表述事实的句子,只有B项为对比、比较的句子,较之A、C、D项更为抽象的表述了一件事情,所以B项为正确选项!
本题听力原文:
7. M: The visiting economist is speaking tonight, but Dr. Johnson doesn\’t seem to think much of him.
W: That\’s because Dr. Johnson comes from an entirely different school of thought.
Q: What do we learn from the woman\’s remark?
第五招:态度和虚拟保留原则
这两种方法一般无单独命题的规律性,只是作为上述四种宏观方法的辅助方法出现,当只剩下两个选项时,通常正态度的选项容易是正确答案,表虚拟的选项更容易是正确答案!
最后祝你能取得一个满意的成绩!
英语四级听力听真题有什么用?
每年真题听力好像都是那两个人在对话 所以听真题 可以熟悉他们的语气啊啥的 不过个人认为其他的说再说的也没用最主要的是单词 单词不认识 学习再多方法 读不懂 听不懂 也没用 单词可以看分频词汇 按着一般的词典从A~Z 很多单词用得太少了 分频词汇里的高频词汇看了对考试非常有用 加油吧
四级听力
听力是我的强项哦^_^,我个人的做法是听英文歌与听历年真题相结合的方法(平时听多英文歌,偶尔听听力题,但考前一个月则是主要以听听力题为主),如果天天听枯燥的磁带肯定会产生厌倦或者疲劳的心理,所以听英语歌是一种很好的方法,可以听一些语速适中的奥斯卡歌词或者是自己喜欢的歌,重点在听歌词,如果能听懂50%以上就不错了,当然适当还是要听真题听力,一方面了解自己的水平,另一方面也可以熟悉试题类型,并试着不看卷子自己猜测问题与答案,再结合试卷检验自己的推测。长此以往,可以培养出自己对听力题目的问题判断及重点推测的能力。 至于长对话的技巧则是,第一遍先听大概意思并将需要填的那句话重点词记下来,注意重点是理解整句话的意思,第二遍,结合重点词再着重听需要填写的句子并写下,第三遍,检验并补充自己填写的内容。(很久没听了不知道现在是不是还是3遍哦,如果不是,直接采用1、3)。注意如果真的没有将整个句子全部听到,没关系,结合之前听到的内容用自己的语言将听到意思表达出来,最好结合重点词汇,千万不能就只写几个听到的片段单词哦,这样是绝对没有分的,如果用自己的组织语言意思没错是可以得到相应分数的。
英语四级听力材料,谢谢
展开全部
1、每天40分钟专攻听力
听力能力的提高是个潜移默化的过程,“三分练,七分养”。因此,在准备四级听力的过程中,最重要的是保证每天都有听英语。建议每天抽出40分钟时间专攻听力,新闻,综艺节目,有声读物或者电影等,但是你一定要集中注意力,沉浸在英文环境中。
2、加强听写的锻炼
听写是提高听力的有效途径。建议找一些标准英语的听力材料,推荐英音版《新概念》第二册或第三册,这套教材的听力部分语速适中,发音清晰准确,语法严谨,非常适合用来提高听力。请务必要精听,保证每个词都听清楚,都可以写出来。这样坚持一段时间,效果是惊人的。作为调节,也可以看一些英文原声电影或电视剧,初期,可以是中英文字幕都有,反复看,中英文交替看,直到看明白为止。渐渐只看英文字幕到没有中英文字幕,也能听出个大概意思来,写出影视剧的台词来。
3、通过历年真题练习听力
真题仍旧是最为重要的练习材料。建议将历年的真题反复听,仔细听,连续听至少三轮,将没听清楚,不能确定,没及时反应出来的地方标出来反复听,对照参考答案认真分析。将听力中的短对话研究一下,认真把短对话默写一遍,如果你能认真做,并把短对话能默写出来,你的听力水平已经上了很大一个台阶。有时间的还可以背诵听力材料,对培养语感和记忆听力中的口语也有好处。
4、加强听力辅导课程的专项练习
对于大多数考生来说,听力部分都是短板,也是导致大家不能一次通关的“原凶“,建议考生针对听力参加一些听力的专项辅导对于提高听力水平、一次通过四考试是非常有必要的。
听力差主要有几方面的原因:
第一、词汇量不够
词汇量是英语学习的基础,单词和词组的积累不够,或者不熟悉,会在听的过程中出现思路跟不上的现象,就会拖累整个听力效果,特别是遇到关键词不知道意思,解题也就无从下手。所以词汇的记忆仍然是首先要做的,尤其是刚开学的这段时间,是记忆单词的重点阶段,同时也要记发音。
第二、语音不过关
在记忆单词的时候就要把音发读正确,检查一下你的英语发音如何,是否标准,你可以通过听一些简单的听力测试一下你的发音。现在很多单词书都是有配套光盘的,建议跟读。
第三、泛听多、精听少
有的同学每天听得天昏地暗,走路听,吃饭听,睡觉听,看似努力非常,但是效果却不理想。要在有限的时间内提高听力,多精听少泛听。因为四级考试40多分钟的听力需要你集中注意力精听,在限定的时间内听懂内容选择出答案。平时越习惯泛听的同学可能在考场上越会遇到走神,注意力涣散的问题。建议同学们每天早上抽出一个时间段,40分钟到一个小时即可,安静地坐着,练习听力。远比每天带着耳机,貌合神离的效果好。
第四、不适应听力的语境
其实四级听力的那些短文,对话都是在生活和校园里经常出现的对话。你可以通过看历年真题的听力文字多熟悉题目,看多了就会发现做起题来简单很多。这就是为什么读过或背过的文字再听一般都能听懂。
第五、对文化背景和常用短语不熟悉
英文口语中有很多口语化的词汇是英语课本中没见过的,但是在听力中经常出现,这就要求你要积极一点,多积累一些,最起码应该把历年真题中出现的口语化语言积累起来,方便记忆。建议你在学习词汇时要边听边记,开始认识词汇时就要把发音把握好,同时在做听力练习时,尤其在精听时要仔细听一下每个单词的发音,体会一下英美发音的不同。
大学英语四级听力
听力考试是英语过级考试中很重要的部分
首先要做好心理准备。紧张不利于理解,只有放松情绪,听觉器官才能对声音信号作出敏感的反映,进而提高思维理解能力。因此如果考前感到紧张,不妨做一下深呼吸或想些与考试无关的事情。这样就很容易把精力集中起来, 从而取得良好的听力效果。
其次,理解好题意,做到心中有数。刚发下试卷的时候,首先应该把题中所问的问题大体浏览一遍,作到心中有数,这样做的好处是:第一,可以判断所听内容,第二, 依据上下文有助于预测答案。这样在听录音的时候,我们就可以不免紧张,可以有针对性的去听,寻找有效信息。这是做听力题时首要前提。如果在考试开始就过度紧张而忽视了题意,就会造成本应该完成得非常好的题从手中错过。降低作题效率。
再次抢用短文,预测听写内容。听写的短文一般在100-200字左右,共重复三遍。考生可利用听指令前的空隙,略看一下短文,做到”有的放矢”。
之后是使用速记方法,从文中找出答案。一定要避免只顾记下听写的第一单词,而后面的几句后匆匆而过,来不及填写第二个空的情况针。我认为在考试中应采用速记方法,迅速记下每个听到的单词。所说的速记就是用一些简单的符号。缩写、字母记下所听到的内容,不让每个单词漏网。
然后是综合多种技能和技巧来理解语篇寻求答案。
(1)阅读技巧:应用平行结构预测所填内容
(2)写作技巧:英文短篇的首句通常为topic sentence,注意此句的理解有助于听出下文空缺
(3)Key word通过关键词可预测答案
(4)熟悉语法结构、句式等有益于听写
(5)听话听音:speaker的语音、语词、语气等都是很好的暗示,要充分利用
(6)不同的文体有不同的特点和写法,掌握这一点对听写大有裨益
这只是我的个人见解,希望能够帮到你作为一个不错的参考吧!
顺便给你这个 http://alex.spiiker.com/apply4英语听力体验课程,外教交流,这样就可以作为一个考试前的一个不错的口语与听力的准备啊~~测试后还会有相关的能力分析报告反馈啊!
