提高初中英语听力试题的方法和技巧

提高初中英语听力试题的方法和技巧听力作为一种考试题型，目的在于考察应试者对英语语言的把握，考察考生对英语日常交流的理解能力; 通常有听对话选择答案、听句子默写关键字词几种形式。英语听力中的精听和泛听：精听精听的目的是系统学习语音、积累小词习语、句型表达和背景，可采用下面两种方式：一是模仿法：精听一段文字，然后参考听力原文，跟读模仿到语音、语调分毫不差，甚至录下自己的发音和原音比较，逐段纠正语音、语调。二是听抄法：又称四遍法，第一遍听大义;第二遍利用复读机或软件尽量听写出每句话，但不要参考听力原文;第三遍和听力原文比对，找出听不懂的原因;第四遍翻译或者背诵。

泛听泛听目的有二：一是练习捕捉大意，让理解单位从“词汇”到“句子”再到“大意”;二是熟悉语速和语境，既真实英语的使用环境。切忌把泛听当精听。战胜“细节完美主义”的办法是重大意而非细节，重内容而非语言，重正在听的内容而非听过的内容。初中英语听力技巧：听力题型大致有以下几种: ①听短句选出相应的应答语; ②听对话及问题选出正确的答案; ③听短文及问题选出恰当的答案或图画; ④听句子或短文填词。一、听力测试的应试技巧： 1. 放松情绪，集中精力。放松情绪和集中精力并不矛盾，过于紧张的情绪有碍于

考生的正常发挥;反之，放松一下情绪，比如考前的深呼吸或闭目片刻都可使考生的心情平静下来，很容易进入答题状态。 2. 抓紧时间，提前审题。提前审题的好处在于它可以帮助我们预知要听的重点，提高捕捉信息的准确度，这样降低了听力材料的难度。 3. 沉着答题，遇难不慌。 ①在审题预测的基础上进行听力预测。例如：看到A : Yes , I mind. B : Yes , I do. C. Not atall. 就要立即想到，此题关键要考“Do/ Wouldyou mind. . . ?”的回答，应马上想到回答是“Not at all . ”, “Of course not . 或“I’m sorry.But you can’t do it . ” ②听力的时间是预先设定的,不可人为控制,因此要养成抢记内容的能力。听力材料中的一些数字、地名或人名等细节信息,需借助笔记。

高考英语听力提分技巧3篇

A篇：高考英语听力技巧英语试卷分为第Ⅰ卷(选择题),第Ⅱ卷(非选择题),两卷总共150分,考试时间共120分钟。第Ⅰ卷将分为听力、单选、完形填空、阅读几个部分,第Ⅱ卷分为听写单词、改错和写作。对英语听力,只有处理好听前、听中和听后的技巧,才能获得较高的分数。英语听力该怎样把握充分利用试听时间,迅速熟悉播音员语音。在听力考试前,会有两分钟的听力试音,考生应充分利用试音时间,及时掌握播音员的语音、语调和语速,熟悉好每个考试指令在平时训练听力时,考生应养成边听边记录的习惯,在记录时可以采用自己熟悉的符号进行速记。在平时训练听力时应保持良好的心态,做到不骄不躁。在考试中,如果出现听漏的情况时,不要慌乱,必要时可以选择放弃。另外要特别注意的是：平时我们考试都不考听力，即用120分钟的时间做120分的题，完型、阅读、写作的速度都相对慢，但现在加上听力，我们做题时必然会觉得时间不够用，从而出现慌张，发挥失常的问题。因此，做完听力要快速确定答案，绝不能听完后再在听力上花费太多的时间，以防拿不到理想的成绩。切记，该放弃时，蒙一个也未尝不可。 B篇英语听力必备的应试技巧（2010年高考）众所周知,在高考(论坛)英语试卷中的第一个部分就是听力,占整个英语(论坛)高考卷的1/5分值;由于听力长期以来是学生英语学习中的弱项,分值比例高,而且与语法、阅读等书面考试题型相比,听力考试具有极强的时间效应,听力过程不具备复制性,考生必须学会掌握一定的听力技巧,充分利用宝贵的每一分钟。 1 预测技巧 1).对话预测在听取对话,尤其是Part A——Short Conversation时,考生可以按照下例wh-问题进行预测:

英语四级真题阅读理解

Passage1 Reading leadership literature, you’d sometimes think that everyone has the potential to be an effective leader. 读领导文学，你有时会认为每个人都有可能成为一个有效的领导者。 I don’t believe that to be true. In fact, I see way fewer truly effective leaders than I see people stuck in positions of leadership who arc sadly incompetent and seriously misguided about their own abilities. 我不相信这是真的。事实上，我认为真正有效的领导者的方式比我看到的人都陷在领导的职位上，遗憾的是他们自己的能力不称职，严重误导了他们。 Part of the reason this happens is a lack of honest self-assessment by those who aspire to（追求）leadership in the first place. 对产生这种现象的原因一部分是由那些渴望缺乏诚实的自我评估（追求）放在首位的领导 We've all met the type of individual who simply must take charge. Whether it's a decision-making session, a basketball game, or a family outing, they can't help grabbing the lead dog position and clinging on to it for dear life. They believe they're natural born leaders. 我们都遇到了个人的类型，他们必须负责。无论是决策会议，篮球比赛，还是家庭外出，他们都不能不抓住领导的狗的地位，并紧紧抓住它，因为亲爱的生命。他们相信他们是天生的领袖。 Truth is, they're nothing of the sort. True leaders don't assume that it's their divine（神圣的）right to take charge every time two or more people get together. Quite the opposite. A great leader will assess each situation on its merits, and will only take charge when their position, the situation, and/or the needs of the moment demand it. 事实是，他们没有什么样的。真正的领导者不认为这是他们的神圣（神圣的）负责每次两个或两个以上的人在一起吧。恰恰相反。一个伟大的领导者会对每一个情况进行评估，并在他们的位置、情况和/或需要的情况下，只会负责。

英语六级听力考试技巧

英语六级听力考试技巧英语六级听力考试技巧一、听音之前的准备要有效利用题目选项进行预判断，包括推测题目内容和考查内容。在看选项时，要做到以下三点。一是竖看，确定相同之处。二是横看，确定不同之处。三是找出重复性高的词，这些词一般是与主题相关的词，具有路标的功能。例如： A)Theymightbestolengoods B)Theymightbefakeproducts C)Theymightbefaultyproducts D)Theymightbesmuggledgood 在这四个选项中，竖看相同点为theymightbe,横看不同点为stolengoods,fakeproducts,faultyproducts,smuggledgoods.重复性高的词语为goods,products(产品)。可以推断这道题是关于产品的。在听的时候就需要注意产品是怎么样的。二、听音时的规律我们在听的时候要注意一下几个规律：

1.顺序规律：注意题目和文章的考点有先后顺序对应的关系。所以我们可以边听边看选项，注意在相关选项后面作上笔记以供参考。 2.注意表示逻辑关系的小词规律：表示转折和对比的逻辑词： but，however，nevertheless，while，infact，whereas，unexpectedly,unfortunately,yet,except,ontheotherhand,compar edto，unlike，instead，incontrastto等等。表示因果的逻辑词： asaresu

The time chosen for the call communicates its importance. In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the

年12月英语四级听力真题原文【完整版】

News 1 A device that weighs less than one kilogram is part of a mission that will allow scientists to deliver fourth generation or 4G mobile coverage to the moon in 2019。 If successful， the tiny device will provide the moon with its first ever mobile phone network。 The lunar network will support high definition streaming of video and data between the moon and earth。 The network is part of a mission to the moon。 This is a project with the goal of landing the first privately paid for mission to the moon。 The 4G mission is set to launch from Cape Canaveral in the United States on a space X Falcon 9 rocket in 2019。 Mission to the moon intends to establish and test the first elements of a communications network on the moon。 The scientists working on the project opted to build a 4G rather than a fifth generation or 5G network。 This is because fifth generation networks are still in testing and trial phases。 This means that a 5G network may not yet be stable enough to work on the moon‘s surface Question 1：What are scientists planning to do? Question 2：Why did scientists choose to set up a 4G network in their mission? News 2 It‘s responded to a fire Wednesday night at an abandoned mall in Heywood。 The fire was reported at 9：26 pm at an old shopping center on Michigan Avenue near St。 Mary’s Church。 Six fire engines， two trucks and two chiefs responded to the scene。 Crews had the fire under control in about 45 minutes and managed to contain the fire to its point

高考英语听力答题技巧总结

听力技巧一、学会预测预测是在做听力理解之前根据各种暗示，如所给答案选项，段落或对话标题等已有知识，对即将听到的段落或对话内容进行预测。 1. 从答案选项中预测： Q: What does Tom do? A. He’s a truck driver. B. He’s a ship captain. C. He’s a pilot. 录音原文：W: Tom flew to Anchorage last night, then took some passengers from there to Dallas . M: Yeah, but he couldn't land because the airport in Dallas was snowed in. 从选项看，问题应是关于职业方面的，再从flew, passengers, airport 这些信息词中可知道Tom的职业。 2. 从说话人口气预测： “Sure”， “I agree”，在A,B两人的对话中，如果B是附和或赞成，往往说“Yes”， “I think so”等。但如A用否定句，B表同意时则用“No”，“Neither / Nor?”等。例如：A: Harvey doesn't seem to fit into this class. B: No, he is really a fish out of water. 二、做简要笔记听录音时快速，准确，简要地记下有关信息(包括数字，人名，地名，关键词)，前提是不要影响跟听速度，采用自己习惯的符号。例：How much will the man pay for the tickets? A.$18 B. $24 C. $30 原文：W: Tickets for the movie are $ 6 for adults, half price for children. M: All right, I’d like three tickets for adults and two tickets for children, please. 笔记可简化为：$ 6 A(A代表adult)，C代表children,3A+2C或6 A(3)+ half C(2) 三、听清数据，简要记录，加以运算。在获取时间信息时，不要误把会话中提到的时间简单确定为问题的答案。高考听力考查时间时往往要进行简单的时间换算。 At what time does the train to Leeds leave? A. 3:00 B. 3:15 C. 5:00 录音原文：W: Excuse me, could you tell me when the next train to Manchester is? M: Sure. Well, it's 3 now. The next train to Manchester leaves in 2 hours, but you can take the train to Leeds which leaves in 15 minutes, and then get off at Manchester on the way. 对话中提到了三个时间It's 3 now, in 2 hours，in 15 minutes. 现在是3点，开往Manchester的火车要两小时后才开，即The train to Manchester leaves in 2 hours。若简单机械地把3点和2点相加，会得出火车5点才开的错误选项C。数字类问题分辨别类和计算类两种： 1. 要注意区分-teen和-ty及four和five的发音;辨别多位数，如电话号码，门牌等 2. 计算时间，钱款，距离，年龄，人或物的数量等;听出数字间的关系，更要听清问题，因为对运算方法的要求通常寓于问题中;注意more, less, as much(many)as, another, double, a couple of; to, past, quarter; 记住时间是60进制如出现几个数字，应注意鉴别问的是那一个。例：At what time does the office open?
