新东方四级词汇笔记(非常完整版)第4课

新东方四级词汇笔记(非常完整版)第4课第4课主谓一致:指的就是给出主语,要求判断谓语动词是用单数还是复数的问题。
一、就近原则:指句子的主语由两部分单词或短语构成时,由离谓语动词近的那部分主语来决定谓语动词的单复数。
只有当以下单词或短语连接主句的两部分时就近原则才适用:1. or 或者;2. either … or … 不是…就是… ,…或… ;3. neither … nor … 既不…也不…;4. not only … but also … 不但…而且… ;5. not … but … 不是…而是…例如:主语1 or 主语2 谓语动词。
此时由主语2决定谓语动词。
10. _C_ either he or his accountants going to claim for the loss?A AreB WhereC IsD Does如果题目改变为:Either he or his accoun tants ___ going … 则应选A二、句子谓语动词一定用复数的两种情况:1. 集合名词做主语,集合名词没有复数形式,因为他本身就代表一个复数概念。
常见的几个复合名词:people 人民,人们;police 警察;cattle 牛;poultry 家禽。
2. 表示数量的复数名词+ 不可数名词,整体做主语时例如:去年出口了八百万顿煤。
Eight million tons of coal were exported last year.三、谓语动词一定用单数的六种情况:1. 句子的主语是由从句充当的、动词不定式短语作主语、动名词短语作主语;2. 表示时间、重量、长度、价值四方面的词做主语;399. -- “How many days?”0 -- “Did you say that five days _C_ required to complete that work?”A areB wereC wasD is3. 表示单数概念的主语,短语,谓语动词,此时谓语动词也用单数;因为此结构中短语只是对主语提供附加说明情况,所以谓语动词也用单数。

四级听力笔记

在四级听力考试中,笔记是非常重要的一环,它可以帮助你记住关键信息,更好地理解听力材料。
以下是一些听力笔记的技巧和建议:1. 筛选无关信息:在听录音的时候,尽量专注于与题目相关的重要信息,忽略无关紧要的细节。
这样你就可以更有效地使用有限的笔记空间。
2. 使用缩写和符号:为了节省时间,可以使用缩写、符号或自己能看懂的简写来记笔记。
例如,你可以用“app”代替“application”,用“!”表示“important”,用“>”表示“more than”等。
3. 逻辑结构清晰:使用一些逻辑标记,如箭头、方框、括号等,来表明信息之间的关系。
这样可以更好地组织你的笔记,并在答题时更容易回忆起相关信息。
4. 记关键词:试着找出并记录下每个问题中的关键词。
这些词通常会出现在答案中,所以记下它们可以帮助你找到答案。
5. 预测答案:在听录音之前,先读一下问题和选项,预测可能的答案。
这可以帮助你在听的时候更有针对性地寻找信息。
6. 注意转折词:像“but”,“however”,“in contrast”这样的转折词通常会引出重要的信息或否定前面的观点,所以一定要留意这些词。
7. 多次重复的信息:如果某个信息在录音中被重复提及或强调,那么这个信息很可能是重要信息,一定要记下来。
8. 时间、数字和百分比:这些具体的信息在很多情况下都是重要的,所以一定要记下来。
如果时间、数字或百分比与录音中的其他信息相关联,那么一定要记下它们之间的关系。
9. 做题时尽量不看笔记:这样做可以模拟真实考试的情况,并且帮助你判断笔记的有效性。
10. 定期复习和改进笔记方法:每隔一段时间就回顾一下自己的笔记方法,根据实际情况进行调整和改进。
请注意,每个人的笔记习惯可能有所不同,因此你可能需要一段时间来试验和调整,找到最适合自己的方法。
祝你考试顺利!。

For question 1-7,choose the best answer from the four choices marked A),B),C),and D).For questions 8-10,complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.The Modern Olympic GamesThe Modern Olympic Games might have remained just a part of history without the dream of one Frenchman, Pierre de Coubertin. Coubertin believed that sport and exercise were very important for the health and happiness of every man and also for the nation. He therefore tried, in 1892, to interest other Frenchmen in his dream of starting a modern form of the early Greek Games. His ideas were strongly criticized by many people, who did not really understand what he was trying to do. It is perhaps sad that the great work Pierre de Coubertin did to bring back the Games was never properly recognized during his lifetime. Gradually, however, people all over the world became interested in his ideas and at a meeting in Paris in 1894, with representatives from twelve different countries; plans were made to hold the first modern Games in Athens in 1899. Organizing the first modern Games, however, was not without problems. The Greek government was unhappy with the decision to hold the Games in Athens, as they had serious economic problems at the time and did not feel they were in a position to spend the necessary money. It seemed therefore that the Games would be finished before they had even begun. Prince Constantine of Greece, however, gave his support to Coubertin and the newly-formed Olympic Committee and other rich Greeks soon followed his example. Enough money was collected in Greece and abroad to build a new stadium and pay all the other costs.On 5th April, 1896, a crowd of over 60 000 people watched the King of Greece open the first modern Olympic Games. There were, however, very few competitors -only two hundred and eighty-five. Australia, Austria, Britain, Bulgaria, Chile, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Sweden, Switzerland and the USA, were the only countries to send athletes to the Games and most of the athletes who did come had to pay for their own travel and other costs. There were ten sports in the first program -cycling, gymnastics, tennis, swimming, athletics, fencing, weight-lifting, rowing, wrestling and shooting; there were also other non-sporting events, such as concerts and ballet, just as there had been at the early Games.At the first modern Olympics almost all the gold medals were won by American sportsmen, but the most famous of all the first medal winners was a young Greek named Spyros Louis, who came from a small village in the mountains near Athens. It was he who won the long and difficult race, the Marathon, and gave the Greeks the national win they had hoped for.The Greeks would have been happy to keep the Games in Greece but Coubertin believed strongly that the Olympics should be truly international and would not allow this to happen. It was therefore decided to hold the next Games in Paris in 1900. Sadly, however, the Paris Games andthe following Games, held in St. Louis, America, in 1904, were poor examples of Coubertin's dream and Coubertin himself did not even travel to the St. Louis Games. For these two Games were more like circus shows than serious international sports meetings. Only fifteen non-Americans went to the 1904 Games, mainly because the high travel costs prevented others from competing. Olympic events were mixed with other sports and events, and the Games were organized to continue over many months, so that as much money as possible could be made by the organizers from the selling of tickets.It was not until 1908, when the Games were held in London, that international rules and distances were introduced;until then the events had been the decision of the organizing nation alone. The London Games were far better organized than any of the other modern Games but it took many more years before Coubertin's dream of a truly international meeting of sportsmen became a reality. It was necessary to make many changes before the Olympic Games became as well-organized and as popular as they are today.Since 1896 the Games have been held every four years, except for a break during the years of the two World Wars. Gradually the number of competitors who take part in each Games has grown and so has the number of countries. In 1896, only thirteen countries were represented and only two hundred and eighty-five competitors took part. Today, however, as many as one hundred and twenty-two countries send athletes to the Games and more than seven thousand men and women come to the Games to take part. In recent years, the number of events has grown to twenty-one, eleven of which are also open to women.It is interesting that Coubertin, whose ideas were born in the late nineteenth century, probably never imagined that women would ever play a part in the new Olympics. Women had never competed in the early Greek Games; indeed, for many years they were not even allowed to watch. In modern times, the London Games in 1908 were the first in which women took a serious part -36 women came to the Games to compete. The first woman to win an Olympic event was the British Tennis Player, Charlotte Cooper, who won a tennis event in 1900. From 1908, however, the number of events began to grow with the introduction of ladies’ gymnastics. Athletics events for women were introduced in 1928 at the Games held in Amsterdam. Today, women are as highly-trained and as fit as men. Although in almost every sport women and men compete separately, in horse-riding events they compete against each other and women have shown over the years that they are just as good.The International Olympic Committee, whose home is in Lausanne in Switzerland, is responsible for all the important decisions of the Olympic Movement. The members of this committee are chosen not by their governments but by members already on the committee and they are therefore above politics or group interests. Most of the members are simply rich men who wish to keep Coubertin’s ideas alive. Not every country is represented, therefore, because this would mean more than 120 members and no decisions would ever be made.However, each country must form a National Olympic Committee before it is allowed to send competitors to the games and this committee must be recognized by the International Olympic Committee. At present, more than 136 countries have formed such a committee. The National Committees are responsible for organizing the national teams and for deciding which competitors to send. Competitors cannot choose to go to the Games -they must be chosen and this means competing against their own countrymen. It is not even enough to be the best in the country, for each competitor must be able to reach the standard expected for entry to the Games. Thesestandards change each year as sportsmen and sportswomen improve. Some countries are not able to send all the competitors they would like to, even if they have reached the expected standard, because of the cost. The National Committee must then decide whether to send the competitors who have the most chance of winning or whether, instead, to send competitors to represent each sport even though some of them have little hope of doing well.Not only the competitors but also the team manager must be paid for. The manager is an extremely important member of the team;he is responsible for the competitors while they are at the Games and his job includes, for example, getting the competitors to each event on time and helping with medical or personal problems. Most countries ask the people for money to help pay for the costs of travel and training. A lot of money is given by businesses and companies who also give, for example, clothes, shoes and uniforms.The city where the Games are to be held is chosen by the International Olympic Committee;this is usually decided five years before the Games are to take place. Several cities may wish to hold the Games in any one year and the Committee decides only after it has listened to and seen the arguments and plans of each city. Once chosen, the city then has five years to prepare.1. Coubertin planned to hold the first modern Olympic Games in_________ in Athens.A. 1894B. 1896C. 1899D. 19002.

新东方名师解惑四级

名师听说读写全解惑——听力篇1.CET的听力是英音,能听懂VOA SE,但听四六级还是听不懂,这个问题出在哪儿呢?陈老师:首先,CET的听力不是英音,而是一个人读英音一个人读美音,交替出现,从而考察考生对两大发音体系的综合听力理解能力。
其次,VOA SPECIAL是美音,所以自然和英音不能匹配,且VOA SPECIAL的语速比CET BAND4的语速略慢,因此自然会有差距。
再者,VOA听力从内容角度而言与CET考试听力的内容还是有一定差距的。
所以对于考前复习而言,更好的还是使用真题进行听力训练。
2.四六级词汇的书都背了,但做听力的时候还是反应不过来,怎么办?姜老师:做听力最关键的是把背过的词汇用耳朵听出来,否则背再多的单词也是没有用的。
所以建议在听的时候同时看文字答案,最好还大声的跟读,这样的效果是最好的。
3. 听力的句子好复杂,前听后忘,怎么办?刚明白过这句话,但后面已经过去好几句了,怎么办?徐老师:出现这样的听力问题,表面上看,也许是你的记忆力不够好。
但是,如果你回想一下自己在使用母语(中文)时的感受,你就会觉得:同样是要记住一个句子的意思(不是句子本身),中文的意思你就可以记住,但是英语的意思你就记不住。
因此,你的问题就不在于意思记不住,这其实体现出两方面可能的原因。
一方面,你的语音输入速度可能比较慢,也就是说,你哪怕是听个别单词,反应时间也相对来说比较长,这样的话,你听句子,尤其是长难句的时候,就会觉得自己的听力水平捉襟见肘,无法应对。
处理语音信息的时间一长,无论是中文的意思还是英文的意思你都是记不住的,毕竟人的记忆力都是有限的。
另外一方面,你的阅读速度也可能比较慢,也就是说,当你有了语音输入以后,将已经输入的语音信息转化为文字信息或者是文章信息的处理速度比较慢,那么这样的话,当你遇到比较大量的已经输入的语音信息需要处理时,就会出现文字理解滞后的现象。
如果是第一种可能性,那么我的建议是你可以跟读一些听力材料,这样来建立起你的听觉和视觉的联系,也就是说,你可以马上把“听到的”信息转化为“看到的”信息。

【参考范文】Overreliance on One’s Mobile PhoneThe picture vividly illustrates a funny dialogue between a boy student and his math teacher. The boy is required to come up with the result of the equation on the blackboard. Instead of working it out on his own, he chooses to turn to the relative math app on his mobile phone.It’s widely acknowledged that students’ overreliance on mobile phones does much harm to their study. Firstly, it takes the place of students’ brainpower, undermining students’ thinking ability. Secondly, it corrupts students’ interest in the process of working out a problem by himself, leading them to the point that they show little enthusiasm in acquiring new knowledge. Finally, it makes students lose their competitiveness in the real world, unable to compete with students who really learn many skills by thinking, reasoning and most importantly by interacting with their teachers and peers.No doubt, overusing mobile phones should be limited in particular in the process teaching and learning in classroom. Only by systematic training of their brain and constant practice by themselves can they accomplish maturity and obtain skills necessary for success in their future life.第二部分听力理解【答案速查】【1-5】 D C A B C【6-10】 D C A D A【11-12】 C C B A C【16-20】 A B C C D【21-25】 C C A A B【26】vital 【27】battle 【28】divert 【29】usage 【30】devices【31】phenomenon 【32】community 【33】electronic 【34】similarly 【35】be beneficial for【听力原文】Section A【1】M: Father’s Day is around the corner and I’m thinking of buying a present for my dad.

What’s it all about?M: That’s two years ago when I made a trip down to New York to participate in one of music competition.W: Wow, that sounds interesting. As a student in college, it’ll be a brilliant chapter in your life.M: I know, but it took much for me to make it there. In fact, I borrowed money from my friend to buy a plane ticket to get there. I felt uncomfortable with borrowing money from others. W: I can imagine, owing a debt is not a good thing. But, anyway, you finally get to New York.M: Definitely. The competition was wonderful. All the participants enjoyed the competition. All the judges chose only the good comments on the performance of each singer.W: You must have got much encouragement from them to go on with your singing in the future.M: Absolutely. The judges are very encouraging. But the most enjoyable and exciting part of my trip there is that I made a lot of new friends who share the same hobby of singing with me.W: That’s really an unforgettable experience for you.Questions 9 to 11 are based on the conversation you have just heard.【9】Why did the man leave for New York two years ago?【10】How did the judges respond to the performance of the participants?【11】What impressed the man most during his experience in New York?Conversation TwoW: Here we have Professor Charles Binley with us today. He’s an expert on recruiting and hiring. My first question, Prof. Binley, what is the most frequent error job applicants make during a job interview?M: I’ve been in this field for many years. And I know deep in my heart that job interviews are very stressful to every applicant. However, the first error they tend to make is that they easily get too personal during a job interview.W: Too personal? You mean, they have wrong understanding of the dress code for a job interview?M: No. That means that they talk too much about their personal life stories. You know what, that’ll make the interviewers worry about whether they can keep job-related information in secret in their future job. So, my advice is that, they should avoid voluntarily offering too much personal information, just focusing on job-related topics.W: Good advice. Focus on job-related topics. Other common errors, Professor?M: The second common error is that many interviewees fail to research the company beforehand. Maybe, they’re busy taking part in one job interview after another. There’s no time for them to get enough information about the desired posts. The result is, they don’t know even the basic information about the company. I doubt that any employer prefer someone who knows nothing about what the company is all about.W: Actually, it’s easy for one to do this in this Internet age. One can get tons of information on the web. Isn’t it?M: Yes, it’s simple. But, for every applicant, it’s on the top of a must-to-do list. The last common error I want to expand on is that some applicants are passive in responding to the interviewers’ questions. That’ll make a negative impression on the interviewers. In the deep of their mind, you’ll be regarded as a passive employee in future.Questions 12 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard.【12】What’s the first common error made by job interviewees?【13】When you find your intended post in a company, what’re you expected to do?【14】What’s the result of being passive in responding to questions during a job interview?【15】What is mainly talked about by the two speakers?Section BPassage OneMy native land, Denmark, is a poetical land, full of popular traditions, old songs, and an eventful history, which has become bound up with that of Sweden and Norway. The Danish islands are possessed of beautiful woods, and corn fields: they resemble gardens on a great scale. Upon one of these green islands, Funen, stands Odense, the place of my birth. Odense is called after the pagan god Odin, who, as tradition states, lived here: this place is the capital of the province, and lies twenty-two Danish miles from Copenhagen.In the year 1805 there lived here, in a small mean room, a young married couple, who were extremely attached to each other; he was a shoemaker, scarcely twenty-two years old, a man of a richly gifted and truly poetical mind. His wife was ignorant of life and of the world, but possessed a heart full of love.On the second of April, 1805, a living and weeping child was born, and that was me myself, Hans Christian Andersen. During the first day of my existence my father is said to have sat by the bed, but I cried all the time. “Will you go to sleep, or lie there quietly?” it is reported that my father asked in joke. But, I still cried on. And even in the church, when I was taken to be baptized, I cried so loudly that the preacher, who was a passionate man, said, “The young one screams like a cat!” which words my mother never forgot.Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.【16】How does the speaker’s hometown get its name?【17】What’s the speaker’s father’s profession?【18】What happened when Hans Anderson was baptized in the church?Passage TwoIn the 1960’s, women engaged 41 hours per week in total unpaid work, such as housework, childcare, family, and other duties, while men did 11 hours per week of total unpaid work. For women, 32 hours of this was dedicated solely to in-home work, while men contributed 4 hours a week solely to in-home work. By the year 2000, women had decreased their housework to 19 hours a week, while men increased their housework to 10 hours a week.However, women still logged 42 hours a week in unpaid labor compared to men’s 21 hours per week of unpaid labor. Interestingly, women may not resent this imbalance when they enjoy the work, and when they and their husbands feel they are especially competent at it. Some researchers do cite past research indicating that this imbalance is likely to be seen as acceptable, but much more of an imbalance is likely to be seen by one of the partners as unfair. After all, the woman performs more than 66% or the man performs more than 36%.The imbalance may be in part “real,” but also in part the result of rating differences. While men and women agree that the man does less housework in their home, wives rate their husbands as contributing 33% to the total housework, while husbands rate themselves as contributing 42%. Differences in ratings depend on who reports the housework, husband for both, wife for both, or husband and wife individually report their own housework, and what home activities are considered “housework”.Questions 19 to 21 are based on the passage you have just heard.【19】In the 1960s, how many hours did a woman spend on household chores?【20】Why does some woman love doing more housework than men?【21】What results in the differences in rating men’s and women’s share in doing housework?Passage ThreeA 31-year-old financial analyst from Queens fainted in front of an oncoming subway train. She survived but woke up to a whole new reality. “I opened my eyes and it was dark. And I thought I got home and I was waking up from a dream or something,” said Teena Katz, a subway accident victim.It wasn’t a dream. Teena Katz wasn’t home. And somehow, she wasn’t in pain. She was awake, alert, and crushed beneath a No. 7 subway train that broke both her legs.“I looked down and I saw that there was a big cut in my leg and an opening. And immediately I told whoever was speaking to me that I saw it but I wasn’t going to stare at it because I didn’t want to go into shock,” Katz said. That person was a doctor who was shocked to hear the 31-year-old financial analyst apologizing for delaying the train. Katz arrived back home Tuesday after a dozen surgeries and more than two-months in the hospital.Before the accident, her life was filled with activities like softball games, jogging, badminton. Now she faces a future of physical therapy, and necessary medical treatment. Even the mental hurdles are equally difficult to overcome.“I was also very independent. To now need help from someone for everything, is very hard for me,” Katz said. Questions 22 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.【22】What happened to Teena Katz?【23】What was Teena’s reaction to her wound in her leg?【24】What did Teena say to the doctor who was tending her?【25】How’s Teena’s life now?Section CThe whole world is accepting and adopting the ways towards the advancement of mobile technology. The youth is playing a 26. vital role in this. Our youth is concentrating on some bad choices and are not able to 27. battle the crisis of mobile phone abuse. Our youth are attracted to 28. divert their attention towards the internet and they are influenced and changed a lot by the 29. usage of internet.

英语四级听力解题技巧之“一二三四”一个中心:A部分以大学校园生活为中心四级听力的A部分试题中,有很多都直接来自托福(TOEFL)听力A部分,还有部分是托福听力试题改编的。
托福考试的目的就是检测非英语国家学生是否到美国接受高等教育的语言能力,其中听力的测试范围主要是大学校园生活(campus life)。
通过对87年以来的历年试题的研究可以看出,四级听力A部分大多数试题涉及到大学校园生活。
谈话的话题大多涉及大学生活中的各个场景,诸如吃饭、学习、借书、做作业、考试、开车、生病、找工作等等。
每一类场景都有特定的词汇和固定谈话思路,我们可以通过选项的一些词汇,推测谈话的话题。
带着托福情结的部分四、六级听力试题,答案是很有规律的。
在四级听力中,常见的场景有:(1)作业场景;作业包括assignment,paper,essay,presentation,experiment 等形式,作业一般很多,很难。
(2)课程及考试场景;课程(course)一般很难,very challenging,好让有志于赴美读书的各国青年才俊们三思而后行。
(3)授课场景;教授的课(含lecture,presentation等)讲的极为枯燥,很难听懂但是学生却对教授评价甚高;(4)考试场景;考试一般很难,女生比男生用功,考的好,还很爱帮助男生上进。
(5)放假场景;大家思乡心切,急于回家。
(7)打工找工作场景:工作难找,面试要做充分准备。
(8)事故场景:学生一般命大,遇到交通事故(甚至飞机坠毁),往往车(包括自行车)毁而人无大碍,受点轻伤或者毫发未伤。
(9)看show场景;一般人多票难买。
(10)噪音场景;一般是嫌原来的住处too noisy,不利于安心学习。
(11)找人一般找不到。
(12)教授、医生、学生一般都很忙。
(13)飞机、火车一般都晚点。
(14)遇事不要着急,要耐心,要等待。
两类选项分析技巧:一)排除一个选项的技巧,下列选项,可以排除:1. 所属类别和其他选项相距甚选的选项,例如:(A) The choice of course. (C) An evening course. (B) A day course. (D) Their work.其中的D选项,明显和其它三个选项属于不同类别,因而对的可能性极小。
2. 所涉及的人物和其他选项不同的选项,例如:1999年1月A) The arrangement of the Wednesday meeting.B) Where they are going to meet Mr. Johnson.C) The necessity of writing to Mr. Johnson.D) Who is going to contact Mr. Johnson.其中的A选项,明显和Mr. Johnson.没直接关系, 因而对的可能性极小。
3. 四个选项中,仅有一个选项含有数字或专用名词,则该选项一般不对,例如:A) They are both anxious to try Italian food.B) They are likely to have dinner together.C) The man will treat the woman to dinner tonight.D) The woman refused to have dinner with the man.其中有且仅有A选项,含有专用名词Italian, 因而对的可能性极小。
又例如:A) Take the GRE test again in 8 weeks.B) Call to check his scores.C) Be patient and wait.D) Inquire when the test scores are released.其中有且仅有A选项,含有专用名词GRE, 有含有数字,因而对的可能性更小。
4. 四个选项中,仅有一个或者两个选项含有听力中很少涉及的词汇,则该选项一般不对。
例如:A) He was kept in hospital for a long time.B) He was slightly injured in a traffic accident.C) He was seriously wounded in a mine explosion.D) He was fined for speeding.C选项含有mine explosion在听力和日常口语中很少涉及,因而对的可能性很小。
5. 内容不合常理、比较荒谬的选项一般不对。
例如:A) Most people killed in traffic accidents are heavy drinkers.B) She doesn’t agree with the man.D) People should pay more attention to the danger of drunk driving.其中的A选项是不合常理的,大多数死于交通事故的人是醉鬼车轮下的冤魂,而不是被称为―马路杀手‖的醉酒司机,C选项就更为荒谬,Drunk drivers无罪,天理难容!6. 含义比较绝对、过于极端的选项一般不对。
一般说来,含有too(太)anything, everything等含义比较绝对的选项是不对的。
例如:A) She takes it as a kind of exercise. B) She wants to save money.C) She loves doing anything that is new. D) Her office isn’t very far.其中,A选项含义比较绝对,除非有很大把握,一般不能作为正确选项。
二)重点预选的技巧1. 含义相反或者相对的两个选项,正确选项一般就在其中。
例如:A) The woman should confirm her appointment with the doctor.B) The woman should have seen the doctor earlier.C) The woman’s headache will go away by itself.D) The woman has been complaining too much.其中,B和C选项的含义相反,正确答案就在其中,C选项一般不符合常理(得了病一般能扛着吗?不能,何况是贪生怕死的英美人?),因而只能是B答案正确。
又例如:A) Henry doesn’t like the color. B) Someone else painted the house.C) There was no ladder in the house. D) Henry painted the house himself.B选项和D选项相对,因而答案就在其中。
2. 结构相差很小、含义差别较大的选项,正确选项一般就在其中。
例如:(A) At a cigarette store (C) At a gas station (B) At a bus station (D) At Aunt Mary’s其中的B和C选项,结构非常相似,仅差一个词,答案一般就在其中。
三种得出答案的途径:从录音中的关键信息得出并确定答案的有三种途径,即直接、转换和推理。
直接是指正确选项或者其中的主要词汇直接出现在录音中的关键信息中,A部分和B部分的大多数并列。
细节题均属此类,遵循―听到什么选什么‖的原则。
转换分为同义转换和反义转换,如果某一个选项或者选项中的关键词和录音中的关键信息同义或者相反,则改选项一般为正确选项。
推理则需要录音中的相关信息总结、归纳出正确答案。
根据统计,可以在录音中直接找到答案的四级听力试题的比例约为35%,50%的题目可以在录音中找到和正确答案的同义或反义的句子。
推理题难度较大,但是,可以根据谈话人的语气、场景规律以及B部分同一篇文章的其他题目的答案或者文章中重复次数很多的单词或者概念确定答案。
四个命题原则:通过对历年的真题的研究,我们可以看出四级听力试题的命题点具有非常明显的规律,即只考察对小对话和文章中的关键信息进行考察,遵从下列原则:强调原则:对于讲话的人或者作者刻意强调的信息,命题的可能性很大。
强调的方式包括:(1)使用具有增加信息接受方注意力功能的词汇,例如most, only, just, particularly, really, new, free, famous, strange , unusual, surprise, shocked, always, each, ever, every, little, few, any, nothing, full of, complete, throughout, all, almost, nearly, total, important, must, stress, note, notice, range, insist, add , laugh, desperation, horror, fear, disaster, key, minimum等等;(2)使用特殊结构及句式,例如比较级、最高级、as…as结构、not so…as结构、different from、similar to、强调结构、否定结构、感叹句、if丛句、完成进行时态、as…as possible、make it clear that、you can imagine that、don’t forget that等结构;(3)含有数字、时间及相关词汇的句子,例如first(start, pioneer), second, millions of, figure, many,one day, years ago, today等等;(4)重复和自问自答;(5)引用:语气语调一般会有明显的变化。
因果原则: 含有表示因果关系的词汇的句子,命题的可能性很大,这些词汇包括because, why, reason, so, as a result, as a sign of, thanks to, therefore, due to等等。
转折原则: 含有表示转折关系的词汇的句子,命题的可能性很大,这些词汇包括but, however, whereas, otherwise, unfortunately, yet等等。
首末句原则: 对于B部分的大多数文章来讲,首句和末句都很重要,出题的可能性很大,有30%的段子题题目的新东方四级听力的笔记短对话部分短对话听力的一些原则1.推理原则:一般需对对话进行推理,故直接在对话中听到的一般不是正确答案。
