四级听力强化训练800题试读:

前言

Preface

听力测试一直是四级英语考试的必考题型,目前其分值占总分的35%,由此可见其重要性,可以说听力测试考分的高低在一定程度上决定了四级考试的成败。与写作、阅读等题型相比,听力测试有其特殊性:在规定时间内要求考生记忆大量的信息,并从中筛选出与试题匹配的有用信息,之后通过逻辑判断选出或写出答案,这对很多的考生来说有难度,也注定了听力很容易成为考生的弱项所在。对考生来说,提高听力水平没有任何捷径可走,只有通过不断地练习以此来强化听音敏感性和准确度。本书即是为四级考生量身打造的听力强化训练习题集,全书主要分为三个部分:一、听力攻略

2013年8月四、六级考试改革后,听力测试部分将原有的复合式听写改为单词及词组听写,其他题型未做调整。整体上,听力测试部分的难度及考查形式变动不大,考生不必担心。本书在“听力攻略”这一部分对四级听力测试的题型做了深入解读:介绍了最新听力测试概况,剖析了听力测试各题型的常考命题,给出了实用的解题技巧,指出了听力易错内容等,力求帮助考生全面了解四级听力测试。二、综合强化

编者在精研最新的听力测试真题后,结合考试大纲对考生听力考核的要求,精心命制了15套强化训练题。这些试题从选材类型、难易度到设题形式都符合大纲命题要求,力求高度模拟真题。在试题解析中,本书提供了答案速查及必要的听力原文和答案解析。通过15套试题的强化训练,相信考生能在答案准确性、答题速度、听音敏感性和解题技巧上都有显著的提高。另外,四、六级考试改革后,虽然听力难度变动不大,但考试流程的调整导致很多考生因为不能完成听力答题卡的填写而最终考试失利,为此,我们在配套光盘中,特别增加了这15套题的听力答题卡,建议有需要的考生自行打印出来在做题时同步使用,为实考做好准备。三、单项强化

本书特别增加了单项强化这一部分,旨在帮助一些需要单独强化对话、短文理解或是短文听写的考生,帮助考生攻克自身弱项,提高整体水平。

除以上内容外,本书附录还收录了常用四级词组、常用对话表达和常用地名表,希望能够对考生起到一定的帮助。

全书配套音频由专业外教朗读,发音清晰、地道,语速标准;全部录音配套同步字幕,音频录音和实考流程完全一致,因此,本书是考生备考四级听力考试的最佳资料。

当然,要提高英语听力水平,除了大量的练习外,考生更要有扎实的基本功,包括词汇、语法等,这就需要考生在平日对英语学习给予足够的重视,多多积累。除此之外,在进行听力测试时,考生应该保持良好的心态,这样才能够取得满意的成绩。

由于时间仓促,本书错误之处在所难免,如有不妥之处,还请各位读者指正,以便我们不断改善。新东方考试研究中心Part One| 第一部分听力攻略第一节Section One题型解读1 题型介绍

听力理解部分旨在测试学生获取口头信息的能力。录音材料采用标准的英式或美式英语朗读,语速约为每分钟130词。2013年8月14日,全国大学英语四、六级考试委员会对外发布了自2013年12月起大学英语四级考试的试卷结构和测试题型作局部调整的消息。调整后,四级听力理解部分分值比例为35%,各题型的测试内容、测试题型、分值比例和考试时间如下表所示:

对话部分(Listening Conversations)共15题,包括短对话和长对话,均采用选择题的形式进行考核。短对话约有7-8段,每段为一轮对话和一个问题;长对话有两段,每段为5-8轮对话和3-4个问题。每段对话均朗读一遍,每个问题后留有13-15秒的答题时间。

短文部分包括短文理解(Listening Passages)和短文听写(Dictation)。短文理解有3篇,每篇长度平均为240词,朗读一遍,每篇3-4题,共10题,每个问题后留有13-15秒的答题时间;短文听写测试考生在不同层面上(从词汇到语篇层面)的听力理解能力,这部分测试采用一篇220-250词的短文,并空出10个单词和词组,全文朗读三遍。与此同时,要求考生根据听到的内容填写所缺信息,所缺部分必须用原文填写。2 考核要求

听力理解部分考核学生获取口头信息的能力,包括理解主旨大意、重要事实和细节、隐含意义,判断话语的交际功能、说话人的观点、态度等。听力理解部分考核的技能是:1) 理解中心思想和重要细节

① 理解中心思想

② 听懂重要的或特定的细节

③ 判断说话人的观点、态度等2) 理解隐含的意思

④ 推测隐含的意义

⑤ 判断话语的交际功能3) 借助语言特征理解听力材料

⑥ 辨别语音特征,如从连续的话语中辨别语音、理解重音和语音语调等

⑦ 理解句间关系,如比较、原因、结果、程度、目的等

大学英语四级考试听力理解部分要求考生达到《教学要求》中的一般要求,即“能听懂英语授课,能听懂日常英语谈话和一般性题材讲座,能基本听懂慢速英语节目,语速为每分钟130词左右,能掌握其中心大意,抓住要点。能运用基本的听力技巧帮助理解。”第二节Section Two命题分析1 短对话

短对话通常是一男一女两人对话,要求考生听完对话后,就对话内容提出的问题做出正确的选择和判断。短对话录音只播放一遍。每段对话长度在40词左右,通常只有一个回合的对话;对话一般为日常生活常见的话题,难度不大。短对话设题主要集中在以下几个方面:1) 事实题

此类命题考查的是根据谈话一方或双方所言可直接获得的或间接判断出的事实、目的、原因和结果,主要考查考生对于对话理解和判断。常见的问题如下:

What does the man/woman mean?

What does the man/woman imply?

What can we learn from the man/woman/conversation?

What can be inferred from the conversation?

What happened to the man/woman?2) 观点题

此类命题考查的是根据谈话一方或双方的语调、语气以及谈话内容,判断出说话者对某人、某事或某物的看法或态度。常见的问题如下:

What does the man/woman mean/imply?

What can we learn from the conversation?

What's the man's/woman's opinion about...?

What does the man/woman say about...?3) 大意题

此类命题考查的是考生对整个对话内容的理解。常见的问题如下:

What can we learn from the conversation?

What is the conversation mainly about?

What are they talking about?4) 行为题

此类命题考查的是谈话者的行为,主要是一方建议另一方去做什么。常见的问题如下:

What's the man/woman going to do?

What does the man/woman suggest the woman/man to do?

What is the man/woman doing?

What does the man/woman intend to do?5) 场景题

此类命题考查的是对话所发生的地点和场景。对话中涉及的场景主要有:学校、餐馆、商店、医院、机场、图书馆、办公室等。常见的问题如下:

Where does the conversation most probably take place?

Where are the two speakers?6) 身份题

此类命题考查的是对话双方之间的关系或推测其中一人的身份。对话中涉及的主要人物关系和身份有:医生与病人、司机与乘客、学生与老师、老板和职员、顾客和售货员、朋友、夫妻、父母和孩子、同事等。常见的问题如下:

What's the probable relationship between the two speakers?

Who is the man/woman most probably speaking to?7) 细节题

此类命题考查的是对话中提及的各种细节,如时间、日期、金钱和数字。常见的问题如下:

What time does the man/woman do...?

How often...?

How much does... cost?

How long...?2 长对话

长对话实质上就是短对话的叠加和扩充,从一个回合的对话扩展到多个回合。长对话要求考生在短时间内抓住并牢记关键信息,增加了考查的难度。长对话一般有两组,每段对话长度在200-300词之间。内容一般与学习、生活和工作相关,包括谈论学业、旅游观光、求职面试等。长对话录音只播放一遍。长对话常见设题基本上和短对话保持一致,其中事实题、观点题和大意题属于常考题目。3 短文理解

短文理解由3篇短文组成,共设10个问题。与对话相比,短文理解的篇幅更长,每篇短文在180-300词之间,并且涉及的内容也比较广泛,包括故事、通知、社会热点、新闻、人物、讲座等。短文理解录音同样只播放一遍。从设题上看一般集中在事实细节题、是非判断题和综合推断题。短文理解的一般命题规律如下所示:

1) 短文首尾处常设题

2) 举例、建议处常设题

3) 所听即所得,听到什么就选什么

4) 出题顺序一般与行文顺序相同

5) 主题一般出现在段落的头尾部分

6) 转折词后面的句子往往是考点

7) 事情一般都向着好的方面发展4 短文听写

短文听写一直是四级考试听力理解题型中较难的一个,2013年8月四级考试的测试题型局部调整后,原听力考试中的复合式听写调整为单词及词组听写,短文长度及难度不变。要求考生在听懂短文的基础上,用所听到的原文填写空缺的单词或词组,题目数量由11题改为10题。此部分共朗读3遍,第一遍为正常语速,要求考生了解短文大意;第二遍在涉及句子听写部分有停顿,给考生时间来填写答案;第三遍为正常语速,供考生核查所填答案。

从表面上来看,把原来8个单词+3个句子的听写改成了10个单词及词组的听写,形式没有特别大的变化,难度也有所降低。但要求空缺的单词或词组必须用原文填写,每一个空的得分将由过去的不等分值变成了每空得一分的情况。换句话说,以前在听写句子时即便考生没有把句子写完整或者用自己的语言来同义转述原文的意思,都会获得一定的分数,但现在要求填写的文字必须100%的准确。在短时间内,要求考生听写出最精确的缺失信息,这无疑对考生的听音辨识水平、单词拼写能力和集中力提出了更高的要求,这一点千万不要忽视!第三节Section Three应试技巧

考试时,考生拿到考卷后,应利用录音播放题目要求的时间,快速浏览题干和选项设置,带着问题去听,这样比较容易抓住关键信息。听录音时要随手记录一些人名、地点、时间、数字等信息,防止遗忘。另外,平时练习时要养成边答题边涂卡的习惯,防止考试时因来不及涂卡而影响成绩。下面分别就各题型简要总结一些应试技巧。1 对话

对话中主要考查以下几种题型:1) 观点、建议题

考查对话中某人的观点态度或者意见建议时,一般重点在第二个人说的话。如果对话中有转折词,通常转折词后的内容为答案。同时,注意说话双方的语气、语调,领会其中的言外之意。2) 行为方式题

听音时要注意说话人和每个动作的对应,及其动作的先后顺序,不要混淆。3) 场景、关系题

听音时要善于通过双方谈论的内容去联想对话当时的场景及说话人的身份,如听到询问subject,即可联想到学生或者学校,听到ticket一词即可联想到售票员和乘客。4) 时间、数字细节题

听音时,时间、日期、价格、年龄、电话号码等涉及数字的信息都是重点内容,涉及多个数字的听力内容容易设置简单的计算题,应多注意数字之间的关系。对于时间、数字细节题,考生应尤其注意读音相近的数字,如-ty和-teen。

对话命题规律一般为:

①直接引用原文单词的选项一般不正确,正确选项通常为原文内容的同义替换,即用不同的词汇、短语、搭配等表达相近的意思。

②通常要办的事情都是不顺利的(如买不到东西、订房间客满、航班晚点、课业繁重等)。2 短文理解

短文理解和短对话,长对话的听力应试技巧基本一致,但是短文理解部分也有一些区别化的特点,掌握这些技巧有助于提高成绩。

1) 在播放短文之前,我们可以利用读题时间浏览各小题选项,推测短文的体裁和大致内容,为听音时获取信息做充分准备。

2) 手眼脑并用,记录关键信息。播放短文录音期间要听记兼顾,但以听为主,千万不要因为记录前面的信息而漏听后面的信息。3 短文听写

虽然此部分题型形式变化不是特别大,但是考生在平时的练习中一定要打好词汇基础,了解单词及其各种变形的正确写法,同时了解单词的正确发音,以便在听音时快速分辨。除此之外,做短文听写时也有些技巧:1) 听前浏览全文

短文听写部分的Directions比较长,这就给考生提供了时间浏览全文,通过浏览全文,考生即可了解短文梗概,并可简单判断空格处应填单词的词性、时态、单复数等语法信息。甚至能通过上下文逻辑关系和一般常识猜出答案。2) 通读全文

在录音播放完毕时,一定要检查所填单词或词组的拼写、时态、语态、单复数、大小写等容易出错的地方,尤其要注意最容易忽视的名词单复数及常用的介词、冠词、代词等。遇到不确定或者没有听出来的空格,一定要根据上下文冷静判断,不要空白。第四节Section Four听力必备

听力考试是对考生英语实际应用能力的测试,考查的项目除了基本的词汇储备量、语法、句型,还包括逻辑分析判断能力、一般人文知识,甚至包括速记等,对考生要求比较高。针对四级听力真题常考项目,我们总结了一些听力中比较难的、容易误听的知识点,供大家复习备考。1 数字的表达和读法1) 基数词

四级考试中出现的数字一般不会有很多位数,主要以方便考生运算为主,但考生也需要了解一些多位数数字的读法,以免考查数字细节时误听或理解错误。首先根据英文数字中的逗号确定读法:有一个逗号读thousand,两个逗号读million,三个逗号读billion,例如:

1,234读作one thousand, two hundred and thirty-four

4,567,890读作four million, five hundred and sixty-seven thousand, eight hundred and ninety

1,234,567,890读作one billion, two hundred and thirty-four million, five hundred and sixty-seven thousand, eight hundred and ninety

此外,要注意英美关于数字的读法略有不同,如:英式英语在百位和十位之间加读and,而美式英语一般不读and,还有一些个别的差异,例如:1,500在英式英语中读作one thousand, five hundred,而在美式英语中读作fifteen hundred;1,000,000,000在英式英语中读作one thousand million,而在美式英语中读作one billion。这些差异需在平时多多积累。2) 序数词

序数词是用来表示顺序的数词。除了first,second,third外,大多数的序数词都是在相应的基数词尾加-th构成的,前面一般要加定冠词,如:the fourth,the fifth,the tenth。3) 分数

分数词是由基数词和序数词合成的,分子用基数词表示,分母用序数词表示,除了分子是1的情况外,序数词都要用复数形式。例如:

1/3读作one-third

1/2读作a (one) half

7/12读作seven-twelfths

3/4读作three quarters

也有比较大的分数,例如:

20/87读作twenty over eighty-seven

32/90读作thirty-two over ninety4) 小数

小数点读作point,小数点后各位数字要分别按照单个基数词读,小数点前的数若为0可略去不读。例如:

7.168读作seven point one six eight

0.157读作 (zero) point one five seven5) 百分数

百分数由percent表示,例如:

20%读作twenty percent

10.09%读作ten point zero nine percent6) 加减乘除“加”用plus,and或add表示;“减”用minus或take from表示;“乘”用time或multiply表示;“除”用divide的过去分词形式divided表示;“等于”用is,make,equal等表示。例如:

2+3=5可读作Two plus three is five./Two and three is equal to five./Two added to three equals five.

10-6=4可读作Ten minus six is four./Six (taken) from ten is four.

3*4=12可读作Three times four is/are twelve./Three multiplied by four makes twelve.

12÷4=3可读作Twelve divided by four is three. 2 时间的表达和读法1) 时刻

读精确的时间一般先读分钟,再读介词past/to,然后读小时。若分钟为15、45,30可用quarter、half。一般在30分钟以内的,用介词past;超过30分钟的用介词to,小时数要加1。注意美式英语中,常用after代替past,用before/till代替 to。例如:

5:00读作five o'clock

9:15读作a quarter past nine(英式)或 a quarter after nine(美式)

15:30读作half past fifteen(英式)或 fifteen thirty(美式)

3:50读作ten to four(英式)或 ten before four(美式)

另外,听力中常出现的发车时间、到站时间一般不读介词,如:4:30 p.m.读作four-thirty p.m.;表达整点一般用sharp,如:在11点整读作at 11 o'clock sharp或者at 11 o'clock on the hour/strike。2) 世纪、年代、年、月、日

342 B.C.读作three four two BC或 three hundred forty-two BC

2000读作two thousand

1949读作nineteen hundred and forty-nine或nineteen forty-nine

2014年10月7日读作October seventh, two thousand and fourteen

in the 1980's读作in the nineteen eighties(20世纪80年代)

in the 60's读作in the sixties(在60年代)

in the mid 13th century 在13世纪中叶3 听力常见同音词

听音时需要快速地把记忆中的文字和所听到的声音联系起来,快速地捕捉可用的信息,之后进入逻辑分析和判断,从而得出答案。只有精确地掌握各个英语单词的发音,才能做到万无一失。英语中有一些同音词容易在听力中给考生带来障碍,这里总结了一些,考生可提前准备。A

For many years, food vendors in American cities have offered selling food from trucks. Hungry people can find more than just hot dogs in these  26 . Now looking for new clothing is becoming as easy and satisfying as exploring the tasty  27  of food trucks. The new movement is called the fashion truck. Once a month, just after sunset, trucks fill an outdoor parking lot in Los Angeles, California. Some trucks sell all kinds of food products, from sweet ice cream to  28  seafood.
