听透VOA词汇_外语学习-英语听力
如何听懂VOA新闻英语
如何听懂VOA新闻英语（From环球网校）很多学英语的同学都喜欢收听VOA、BBC、CNN等英语新闻广播，想以此来提高听力和口语水平，于是每天早上都能看到一些同学拿着收音机在校园里边走边听，有的怕信号不好，还用手把收音机举起来，像个自由女神一样。
其刻苦学习英语的态度令人敬佩，但很多同学都跟我说基本上听不懂，也不知道该怎么听。
这是个非常普遍的问题，也是个比较棘手的问题，有的同学甚至由此产生了对学英语的恐惧。
我认为大可不必这样，其实这些新闻广播是有一些特点的，我们只要掌握这些特点和一些收听技巧，还是能够听懂这些新闻的。
下面我就来具体的谈谈这些特点和技巧。
一、采用主动的、积极的听力方法。
听力分两种方法。
一种是消极的、被动的（passive）听力，这是很多同学都采用的方法，就是试图去听懂每一个单词，采用这种听法最后只有两种可能：要不就是每个单词都听懂了，但是不明白句子的意思，要不就是在一个生词上耽搁太长的时间，导致后面的几句都没有听清楚。
这实际上是一种效果很差的听力方法。
而我给大家推荐的是另一种听力方法，就是主动的、积极的（positive）听力。
这种方法就是要注意把握句子的结构，听懂关键词。
我们来看这样一个句子：Part of the pressure on lawmakers to put stronger protections in defined-contribution and savings plans comes from retiree-advocacy groups such as the American Association of Retired Persons. 这个句子没有什么生僻的单词，但是如果我们试图去听懂每一个单词，而不去把握句子的结构的话，就不能听懂这句话的意思的。
而如果我们找到这个句子的主干：pressure comes from retiree-advocacy groups，就很容易明白这句话的意思了，因为其他的部分都是修饰成分。

高中英语VOA习惯用语第446讲talkonesearoff.素材
第446讲 talk one's ear off...内容：今天我们要讲的习惯用语都由talk这个词开头。
大家一定知道talk是谈话，所以这几个习惯用语都关系到谈话。
我们要学的第一个习惯用语是: talk one's ear off。
Talk one's ear off要是按照字面意思来解释就是: 跟一个人说话说掉了他的耳朵。
你一定明白这是夸张的说法，就好比中文俗语：这话听得我耳朵都长茧了。
这其实是在形容没完没了反反复复地对你说这话。
那么 talk one's ear off究竟是什么意思呢? 我们听个例子来琢磨。
这个人要告诉我们他在火车上跟一个人相处时的经历。
我们听听他这位火车旅伴说话有什么特别的地方。
例句-1：On the train to New York I sat next to a man who talked my ear off about himself. He didn't even stop to catch his breath. It was the longest three hours I've spent in my life. 他说：他在去纽约的火车上身边的旅伴跟他大谈特谈自己，而且说个没完没了，甚至连喘气的工夫都没有，使他觉得在车上渡过的那三小时简直长得漫无止境。
这个偶然相遇的人竟然一口气跟他谈了三个钟头，所以他说: talked my ear off，意思一定是对我喋喋不休地说个没完。
Talk one's ear off是没完没了地长谈。
我们再学个习惯用语。
它虽然有相近的意义，但是却不完全一样: talk a blue streak。
A blue streak，原来指闪电，闪电一闪即逝，是非常迅速的过程，所以常用来描述快速的行动。
例如在这个习惯用语里描述是说话其快无比。
我们来听个例子。
说话的小伙子好不容易鼓起勇气约了他班上的漂亮姑娘Susan出来吃饭，结果却很失望，小伙子也不打算再接再厉了。

6月英语六级听力训练：VOA标准英语(1) 点击收听WASHINGTON — Dark chocolate is known to help prevent heart disease, but eating too much of it may be not so good for your body weight. But never fear! Scientists are looking for a way to concentrate dark chocolate's helpful ingredients in supplemental pills.Cocoa contains chemicals called flavanols that may help reduce the risk of strokes and heart attacks by lowering blood pressure and bad cholesterol levels and improving the body's use of insulin.Washington chocolatier Steve Koumanelis said that is one reason dark chocolate is increasingly popular among his customers.“A lot of people are gravitating towards dark chocolate because they just decide they love it, and they also have been reading all about the health benefits of dark chocolate,” said Koumanelis.But those benefits have not been confirmed by studies involving large numbers of people. Also, during the manufacture of chocolate, many flavanoids are destroyed, while sugar and saturated fats are added to contribute to flavor.Scientists now want to learn the benefits of flavanols in their unadulterated form. They plan a four-year study of 18,000 adults, who will take capsules of pure cocoa flavanols, in what is being called the largest test of its kind.Jo-Ann Manson, of the Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, is the lead researcher.“This capsule of cocoa flavanols will avoid having the calories and the sugar and the saturated fat found in chocolate,” said Manson.The capsules also won't have any taste.Participants, divided in two groups, will take two identical pills a day. One group’s pills will contain flavanols, while the others will get placebo pills.“The amount of chocolate that it would take in order to have this amount of cocoa flavanols would be more than ten times the amount that people would ordinarily eat,”said Manson.Whatever the outcome of the study, Koumanelis said he’s not worried about his business.“People like the experience of actually biting into a piece of chocolate, whatever their favorites are,” he said.The flavanol benefits test is still in the early stage, so scientists are not sure when the participants will be handed their first chocolate pills. In the meantime, they'll get their flavanols the old fashioned way!(何己派)英语四级作文模板分类记：评论反驳类模版1Recently it seems that____________.MANY people,especially___________,think it will certainly do good to_____________because_____________.Moreover,_________.Nevertheless,after careful consideration,I have to state that the above view is more than biased,given the following readons.First of all,____________.Besides,__________.Furthermore,__________.We can see clearly that although_________may bring favorable results,there are still problems concerning_______.It seems necessary for ___________to make a careful consideration befero________.模版2Until recently most people hold hostile attitudes towards_______.Some people view it as_____________while others consider it____________.Recent research,however,shows that___________is of great benefit in many respects._________,scientists tell us,_____________.Surprisingly enougu,____________also_______.The most remarkable thing about_______is that_______.Now we can draw the conclusion that_______.I strongly advocate that we should make good use of it to_________.模版3In current society,we come across too many peole who put much emphasis on __________.In many cases,________has become the sole criterion for judging a person’s__________.I argue that we should not put too much emphasis on________.To begin with,we should not take it for granted that those who__________will naturally______________.Moreover,_____________.Yet,_____________.The above discussion points to a fact that_______________.Consequently,it is of vital importance for us to realize that_____________.。

标题：美语三级跳Go English：009A 购物: 初级课程听力内容：Kevin准备在女友生日的时候跟她出去浪漫约会，为此，他特意到商场，打算买身儿精神的衣服。
Professor: Winnie, I think Kevin must be a very good boyfriend. It's nice of him to buy a new suit for his girlfriend's birthday.Oh come on, Professor Bowman, 如果他真是个好男友，就该把钱花在女朋友身上，而不是给自己买新衣服！Professor: Well, that's true. Let's listen and we will see who is right!Salesperson: Hello sir, can I help you find something?Kevin: Yes, I'm looking for a new suit.Salesperson: What is your size?Kevin: I usually wear a size 42.Salesperson: Alright, I'll show you the rack where we have our size 42 suits.Professor: So Winnie, did you hear what size suit Kevin usually wears?他一般穿42号的西装。
对了，Professor Bowman, rack是货架的意思么？Professor: That's right. If you can't find something you want "on the rack," you can ask someone at the store if they have it "in the back."这么说，那些"on the rack"的衣服是摆在店面的货架上，让顾客挑选，而"in the back"就是那些放在后面库房里的衣服。
