英语四级窍门

无须复习,只要十天英语四级就能过!!!方法让你喷血!!怕以后找不到!!! 无须复习,只要十天英语四级就能过!!!方法让你喷血!!怕以后找不到!!!

1、听力,有三种题型,dialogue(十个对话),passage(三个短文),compound dictation(复合式听写,也就是传说中的段子题),第一种每年必考,后两种逐年交替,其中考passage的次数相对较多。

最容易得分的是dialogue和passage,只要记住一个超级技巧即可:对话所述事情总是向不好的方面发展。举几个例子:比如对话里问教授的讲座lecture难不难,记住一定难,老师的作业assignment多不多,一定多,男士发出的邀请,女士会答应吗,永远不会,永远是一个傻哥们发出邀请,邀请的对象是Mary,问我们游泳好吗,滑冰好吗,跳舞好吗,吃饭好吗,Mary的回答永远是,我非常的想去,but不去,四级考了十几年了,Mary从来没有去过,今年照样不会。所以大家记住,只要是对话,必然会发生意外的事情,再举个例子,两个选项,A火车准时,B火车晚点如果你是出题老师,你怎么设置对话,当然是晚点了,准时有什么好说的,总不能两个神经病,或者是两人刚谈恋爱,来到车站,没话找话,男的说,哇,火车准时了,女的说,咿!还真准时了耶!所以准时是不可能的,不好的事情一般都是最后的答案!对于compound dictation,上学期偶运气好没有考这个,但是偶觉得这种题确实比较难,只能竖直耳朵专心听了,即使听不懂,也要根据上下文瞎猜一个,空着肯定没分,瞎猜说不定老师看错了还会给你一分!

我想补充的是,千万不要听历年真题,不管是磁带还是MP3,这些只会让你觉得更烦,偶当时就只是在偶mp3里面存了一些BACK STREET BOY的as long as you love me,I PROMISE YOU 等和Mariah carey的Always Be My Baby等等,当偶困了的时候就在自习室里假寐一会儿,听歌养神!

2、阅读,这是我们应考的重点,阅读题得分的高低直接影响到你是否能过,在这里我针对每种题型谈一谈,㈠事实细节题,据偶的观察,每年必考地方是列举处,即有first,sceond,in addition……的地方,还有举例与打比方的地方,即有as,such ,for instance等出现的地方,有几个应考规律,大家记住,1)选项中照抄或似乎照抄原文的一般不是答案,而同义词替换的是正确答案,

2)选项中表达意义较具体,也就是句子较长的一般不是答案而概括性的,抽象的是答案,

3)选项中有绝对语气词的比如must,never,merely等不是答案而有不十分肯定语气词的是正确答案,比如could,might,possible等。

㈡词义及语义判断题,常考有指代上下问语义功能的名词和一词多义的词组,另外复杂句由于其句子之间的关系复杂,也常成为考查理解能力的一种手段,大家只要记住一个规律即可,那就是选项含义与被考单词在含义上肤浅相近的一般不是答案

㈢推理判断题,有如下几个技巧,

1)若要求对某段内容进行推论,那么就只看题干要求作答的那一段,

2)选项中采用试探性,不十分绝对语气词的比如tend to ,offten等一般是答案,

3)符合常识逻辑的一般是答案,比方说为什么中国比较穷,是因为人口众多,为什么美国人很胖,是因为他们吃的肯德基,麦当劳太多了)。

㈣主旨大意题和观点态度题,这两种相对都比较难,大家的得分都不是很高,所以即使你做的不好也别太介意。这两道题,偶当时是在十分紧迫的情况下,只读了首尾段,然后迅速选择的,其实最后效果还不错,阅读考了二百多分!

3、词汇,对于这种题,当你看到偶的博客以后,回去赶紧扔掉那些什么词汇串联记忆,星火记忆,黑白记忆,什么家谱式记忆,连环记忆……之类的书吧,或者送人,或者保存好,来年卖给不懂事的大一新生们,要不就拿去垫桌角,方方正正的多好啊!偶认为背单词是一种投入和产出极不成比例的做法,极其愚昧和迷信!偶当年是这样做的,考前两天(一定不要太早,否则还会忘掉),浏览了一下课本后面的四级词组,考试时,只要选项里有出现课本上的单词或词组,那么不要犹豫,选定她!偶还想提醒大家,千万不要在30个词汇题上浪费太多的时间,要知道每个题才0。5分啊,而阅读呢,一个2分,把时间节省出来做阅读吧!偶当时用偶的方法再加上1/4蒙题的概率,最后综合项(包括完形填空)考了一百多分。

4、完形填空题和简短回答题,这两个题也是逐年交替,其中前者出现的机会远远大于后者,如果你遇到的是完形填空题,你应该庆幸,整个四级考试中,数她最简单了,偶当时压根儿就没有看题目一眼,直到考试结束铃响了,偶才开始拿着机读卡瞎蒙,偶当时坐在最后一排,当收卷子的女老师走到偶跟前时,偶还有五道题没有涂卡,偶深情地对她说,天气很热,您也很累了吧,她笑着对偶说,谢谢,还行。在这一瞬间,偶把所有的题都涂完了。大家参加过高考的人都知道,做一个完形填空题花的时间可能超过两道阅读题,但是得分呢?相信大家都心中有数。幸亏四级考试中此题每个才0。5分,即使真正的高手在这个题上也不会超过你五分的,但是花的时间却是你的30倍左右(偶当时做这个题前后大概只用了18秒)。偶一直认为,对于完形填空,命题者的真正意图不是考查你的知识水平,而是考查你是否会合理安排时间!

如果你不幸遇到了简短回答题,说实话,偶也没有好办法,这种题虽说千年难遇一次,但是偶认为这是四级考试中最有水平,最不好应对的题,出题人一定来自天外星球!遇到这种题,如果你有兴趣,那就试一下,如果实在不会做,那么你就认倒霉吧!在大学里有一句话说的好:一生中,谁没有几次踩到大便的时候!

5、写作,偶认为这是最容易应对而且也是最容得分的题!

只需考前花9秒种,即有可能取得9分(满分100分制)以上的好成绩。偶当时只是在开考前熟记了两个比较有难度的经典句型,考试时想办法在在首句和结尾处各用了一个,然后剩余部分,或者自由发挥,或者写几段偶喜欢的英文歌词(注意不是汉语拼音的),或者写一下李阳疯狂英语里的搞笑句子。

你不要怀疑偶的做法,现在偶给大家分析一下此法可行的原因:判卷时,每个老师桌子上都会有一大叠卷子,远远超过你高考时的复习资料,你想,只要是个人,谁会有耐心仔细看那么多的英语文章,再加上一般判卷发生在大夏天,天气闷热,心情烦躁,每天关在小屋里看偶们这些无聊低级的文章,不许上网,不许QQ,不让开MSN,更不可能写博客,好人也会被折磨疯的。所以他们判卷时,一般只看开头和收尾句,再大体看一下字数够不够,有的正在谈恋爱的老师,心情比较好,还会看有没有错误的单词,为了防止这种情况,我提醒大家,我们的目标不是写一篇惊世骇俗的文章,而是尽量在三十分种内不说一句错话,不写一个错单词。一句话,我们的目标就是——没有蛀牙!!再有,写短文时,最好用黑色钢笔,而不要用其他颜色的,特别是圆珠笔,另外,千万要注意书面整齐,据说,判卷老师大都是近世眼,对于黑色他们更为敏感,更习惯。书写也是,越整洁,他看得越清晰,心情就越好,偶们的分也就越高!偶当时做完此题,共用了八分钟,但是偶的写作成绩却是八十分(满分710分制)!

英语四级听力技巧总结

英语四级听力技巧总结 英语四级听力技巧总结是怎样的,以下是小编精心整理的相关内容,希望对大家有所帮助! 英语四级听力技巧总结入门阶段,是对以前很少进行听力训练,甚至没有听过英语的朋友而言。这个阶段,是起步阶段,也是耗时最长的阶段,就我的经历而言,在这一部分,应该采取如下的训练方法: 1. 首先要纠正自己的英语发音,自己在口语上还算能过关,如果自己的发音都不行,那怎么可能听懂。 2. 选择难度较小,语速较慢的听力材料来训练。建议听的材料不要太长,以一段几百字为宜,内容最好是生活和文化方面,最好先不要听科技、伦理方面的文章,即使你能看懂,但从初学者的角度考虑,你听起来一定费力 3. 听的时间长度:以每天45分钟左右为宜,时间不能太短,这样就收不到训练的效果,但也不能强迫自己听的太多,毕竟这一阶段还有很多听不懂的地方,可以说有时候自己听得象在云里雾里,这样的状态持续的时间太长,对自信心是一个严重的打击,会严重地影响听的兴趣。 4. 听的频率,一天一次即可,选择一个固定的时间听,最好是自己精力比较旺盛的时间段。 5. 听的过程中的方法选择:唯有聚精会神,没有私心杂念才行,这只有通过不断地训练才能达到。要做到避免外

界因素的干扰。 6. 经典听力材料:VOA 特别英语。主要是新闻、文化方面的内容,语速90词每分钟,最适合有一定词汇量的听力初学者进行听力锻炼。我听的时候这个节目的时间段是晚上9点半到10点,我每晚的这个时间都给了SPECIAL ENGLISH,持续了3个月。建议采取的听力方法:做听力笔记,手中有笔和纸,及时地记下一些不熟知的词汇,因为特别英语的常用词只有1600左右,把这些常用词都弄懂,完全听懂它只是一个时间问题。 备注:这一阶段最重要,一定需要耐心和毅力,如果读写基础还行的话,应该能在2、3个月之内完成这个过程,进入攻坚阶段。 掌握了一定的备考方法之后,也要具备一定的答题技巧,下面小编就教大家几招。 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.

Calculate for a moment what could be done with even a part of those hours. Five thousand hours, I am told, are what a typical college undergraduate spends working on a bachelor's degree. In 10,000 hours you could have learned enough to become an astronomer or engineer. You could have learned several languages fluently. If it appealed to you, you could be reading Homer in the original Greek or Dostoyevsky in Russian. If it didn't, you could have walked around the world and written a book about it. The trouble with television is that it discourages concentration. Almost anything interesting and rewarding in life requires some constructive, consistently applied effort. The dullest, the least gifted of us can achieve things that seem miraculous to those who never concentrate on anything. But Television encourages us to apply no effort. It sells us instant gratification(满意). It diverts us only to divert, to make the time pass without pain. Television's variety becomes a narcotic(麻醉的), nor a stimulus. Its serial, kaleidoscopic (万花筒般的)exposures force us to follow its lead. The viewer is on a perpetual guided tour: 30 minutes at the museum, 30 at the cathedral, 30 for a drink, then back on the bus to the next attraction—except on television., typically, the spans allotted arc on the order of minutes or seconds, and the chosen delights are more often car crashes and people killing one another. In short, a lot of television usurps(篡夺;侵占) one of the most precious of all human gifts, the ability to focus your attention yourself, rather than just passively surrender it. Capturing your attention—and holding it—is the prime motive of most television programming and enhances its role as a profitable advertising vehicle. Programmers live in constant fear of losing anyone's attention—anyone's. The surest way to avoid doing so is to keep everything brief, not to strain the attention of anyone but instead to provide constant stimulation through variety, novelty, action and movement. Quite

英语四级听力技巧——如何听数字

英语四级听力技巧——如何听数字 大家要注意:英汉两种语言的计数单位不完全一样,汉语有“万”和“亿”这两个计数单位,而英语是没有的;英语有million(百万)和billion(十亿),而汉语中没有。 对于如何听数字,巨微英语四级真题/逐句精解总结了相关的听记技巧,这对于做听力很有帮助。这里主要和大家分享四位以上的数字和带小数点的百分数的听记技巧。 1.英语计数采用国际习惯每隔三位数用一逗号分开,例如1,000以上的数:先从后向前数,每三位数加一逗号,第一个逗号前为thousand,第二个逗号前为million,第三个逗号前为billion(在使用英式英语的国家中为thousand million),然后一节一节表示。 2.以trillion,billion,million和thousand为中心,听的时候集中注意力听清楚是多少个trillion,多少个billion,多少个million和多少个thousand,及时记下并在它们的后面分别用逗号分开,没有具体数字的就打上“0”。当然trillion的前面还有一些更大的计数词其规律都是一样的。 注意,有一些数字有两种读法。 例如:1,000可读作one thousand或ten hundred;4,500可读作four thousand five hundred或forty five hundred;500,000可读作five hundred thousand或half million。 3.包含“8”的听力难点数字。在英文所有数字的发音中,

“8”的发音是唯一以原音开头的单音节,使得“8”发音中的[ei]音非常容易和前面的单词连读,而“8”发音中的[t]音又极其容易和后面单词的辅音相连造成[t]的失爆。比如,£68的发音:“sixty eight pounds”,但它经过连读和失爆后,最终的发音等同于“sixti yei pounds”。大家可以试着读一读,看其发音是不是有些像“£60”。很多考生就是错误地把听到的“£68”当成了“£60”而丢分的。 4.特殊数字的读法:2/3读成“two thirds”;1/4读成“one fourth”或“a quarter”。如果同一个数字重复出现两次或三次,听力原文中可能将它读成double…或triple…,如3776888可能会被读成“three double seven six triple eight”。零读作“O”或“zero/nought ”,比如0.9可能会被读成“zero point nine”或“nought point nine”。足球比赛的比分“4:0”一般读作“four nil”;而网球比赛的比分“6:0”一般读作“six love”(网球中love=0)。 总结的这些技巧可能不太全面,大家可以去看巨微英语四级真题/逐句精解上总结的听力做题技巧,书上更全面一些。

Model Test (10)Band Four 听力原文: Listening Comprehension Scripts: Section A: Directions:In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conversations.

英语四级听力高分五大技巧

英语四级听力高分五大技巧 作为四六级考试的重中之重,听力的复习尤其重要,以下是四级听力技巧总结,同学们不妨一起来看看吧。 英语四级听力高分五大技巧一、调整心理状态心理状态就是一个人的心情。 心情的好坏,会直接地影响我们工作、学习的效果。 你也能看到,在体育比赛中,由于心理状态的起伏,参赛选手的发挥会跟着有较大的起伏。 同样的道理,心理状态的正常与否对参加听力考试的同学来说也至关重要。 心理方面的任何失衡都会使你手忙脚乱,得分率降低,平时掌握的内容也有可能发挥不出来;相反,保持良好的心态,则会使你如虎添翼,发挥出最佳水平。 考试中的心理偏差有两种,一是过于放松,难以集中注意力,总是想起别的东西,无法抓住听力内容的关键词;二是过于紧张,心跳加快,手心出汗,有头晕的感觉。 出现前一种情况的同学要加强训练,找一个与考试环境相似的教室,模仿真实的考试场景,逐渐进入状态;出现后一种情况的同学可能是对自己的能力估计不足,心中无数,有一种惧怕心理。 这就要从自身做起,平时加强听力训练,做到有的放矢,弥补弱项。

从而充满自信,保持心理稳定。 在考前,把指令背熟,然后在放指令的录音时,阅读选择项,并进行有关的预测,这时,紧张的心理自然消除了。 另外,要做到顺其自然,我们的意思是不要怕漏听一些非关键部分,像介词、连词、冠词等,总之不要去想一个没听到或一个不熟悉的单词,否则,会漏听内容。 关于心理准备。 在开首,我们提出同学们在练习听力以及正式的考试中都必须遵循的一条,就是放松心情,但要使听觉系统紧张起来。 只有放松心情,才能正常(甚至超水平)发挥听力。 同学们在平时训练中,就要注意加强大脑与听觉系统之间的协调与沟通。 我们在以后的每一个测试开首,都会讲解实用技巧,希望同学们能熟练掌握并运用于试题之中。 二、注意辨别近音同音、近音词句一样,在英语语言中也有许多单词读音很接近。 它们在被读出时,很容易对考生造成干扰,使你产生多余的联想。 另外,在对所提问题设定的选项中,通常会出现与听力材料中读音接近的单词,作为对原句中音或义的干扰。 比如:W: I\'ve got to buy a new car.M: Really?Q: What does the woman mean?选项:A) She purchased a car recently.B) She knew the car

全国四六级考试英语听力提升技巧

四级考前20天,听力高分训练的完整步骤 为了更好的突破四六级考试,我们始终认为四六级真题是最好的训练材料。06年6月起至2010年12月份的题目是最需要训练得滚瓜烂熟的题目。若认为题目不够训练,也可以继续做05年或以前的题目。但是题目时间越早,难度和实效性就越低。同时,老师也希望大家在做历年真题时,注意合理的步骤、方法,以期得到事半功倍的作用。 第一步:预判(3-5分钟) 做题前,一定留出时间看题。正式考试时看题时间约3分钟左右。我们只能高效的看而非全面的看。选项中最需要注意的是:高频词,主语,谓语等。同时注意,相似选项和相反选项要保留,准确答案就在其间。复合式听写部分也需要注意高频词汇。 例(2010年12月小对话): [A]Combine her training with dieting. [B]Repeat the training every three days. [C]Avoid excessive physical training. [D]Include weightlifting in the program. 很明显,考动作的动作题目,注意听懂第二句的动作即可。 例(长对话) A) marketing consultancy. B) Professional accountancy.

C) luxury hotel management. D) business conference organization 选项都是某种行业,又因为此题是08年6月听力长对话中的第一题,所以就暗示自己注意长对话开始部分的行业词汇即可。 第二步:听力开始(35分钟) 2006年6月年后的四级听力放音时间约35分钟左右。请不间断地听完一套题,中间不要停顿,强化自己的耐力注意力和定力。记住,不要间断也不要提前看后方的答案。 第三步:查阅环节(时间因人而异) 1、对答案。确定准确答案在原文中的位置。同时确定错误答案为什么错。 2、查词和短语。将选项和原文中所有不熟悉的单词和短语全部查阅清楚,不留死角。 3、翻译句子。查阅词语结束后,可以用视译的方式看句子是否可以通顺的翻译明白。若发现人有句子无法理解,那就是单词和短语的含义并未查阅正确。 例:2010年12月第22题B选项By seeing a commercial on TV. Commercial的含义不是"商业"而是"广告"。 例:2006年6月四级听力长对话原文,是一个面试: What benefit package do you offer? 误译:你提供什么利益包裹? 正译:你们有什么样的福利计划?

英语四级模拟试题及答案.

Part II Reading Comprehension (35 minutes) Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage One Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage. Unless we spend money to spot and prevent asteroids (小行星) now, one might crash into Earth and destroy life as we know it, say some scientists. Asteroids are bigger versions of the meteoroids (流星) that race across the night sky. Most orbit the sun far from Earth and don’t threaten us. But there are also thousands of asteroids whose orbits put them on a collision course with Earth. Buy $50 million worth of new telescopes right now. Then spend $10 million a year for the next 25 years to locate most of the space rocks. By the time we spot a fatal one, the scientists say, we’ll have a way to change its course. Some scientists favor pushing asteroids off course with nuclear weapons. But the cost wouldn’t be cheap. Is it worth it? Two things experts consider when judging any risk re: 1) How likely the event is; and 2) How bad the consequences if the event occurs. Experts think an asteroid big enough to destroy lots of life might strike Earth once every 500,000 years. Sounds pretty rare—but if one did fall, it would be the end of the world. “If we don’t take care of these big asteroids, they’ll take care of us,” says one scientist. “It’s that simple.” The cure, though, might be worse than the disease. Do we really want fleets of nuclear weapons sitting around on Earth? “The world has less to fear from doomsday (毁灭性的) rocks than from a great nuclear fleet set against them,” said a New York Times article. 21. What does the passage say about asteroids and meteoroids? A) They are heavenly bodies different in composition. B) They are heavenly bodies similar in nature.
