英语四级听力技巧

作重点记录

在Section A中，有关于时间，数量推算之类的题目。做这类题目时，考生要记下有关数字，并作简单计算。否则，等听完之后，脑中暂歇的信息一经消退，你就可能无法得到正确答案，亦或出现混乱而出错。例如：

W: I only have ten dollars, is it enough for three tickets?

M: Well, you can buy three $2 tickets and three $3 tickets, whichever you like.

W: I'll like the cheaper seats, please.

Q: How much money will the woman have after she buys the tickets?

作这个题时，最好记下几个数字：10，3，2，3，分别代表有10元钱，买3张票，有2元一张和3元一张的，当你听到买票者要便宜的一种，你立即可得出她还剩四元钱。

快速浏览选项

例如：

A) The doctor is busy tomorrow.

B) The doctor won't see her tomorrow.

C) The doctor is busy all day today.

D) The doctor will see her today.

当你阅读了这四个选项后，你就会联想到这是关于医生的活动安排的内容。这时，你就要集中注意力在医生的日程上。请看

W: When can the doctor see me?

M: He won't be free until tomorrow.

Q: What does the man mean?

你听到医生直到明天才会有空时，答案就很明显了。A)、B)、D)项都与原文所表达的意思不符。只有C)贴切。从这一点也可以看出，听力技巧的提高跟你阅读能力高低有很大关系，因此，平时还要加强阅读训练，以期能迅速理解选项意思。

掌握因果逻辑

掌握一些体现原因的词，如because，as，due to，on account of，in that，so…that，such…that，now that，thanks to，owing to，result in，give rise to等等。熟悉这些词或词组的表达法很重要。另外，表达先后顺序通过时态上也可体现出因果关系。如：

M: I was very sorry to hear about Bill's being fired.I know hewas sick a lot and that he usually got to work late.

W: Oh,it wasn't that .Bill made a big error in accounting. Even though it wasn't really his fault,his boss was very angry.

Q: Why did Bill lose his job?

Bill被解雇的原因是made a big error in accounting.
