The words can be used ONCE ONLY. Mark theImagine a world without writing. Obviously there would be no books: no novels, no encyclopedias, no cookbooks, no textbooks, no telephone books, no scriptures, no diaries, no travel guides. There would be no ball-points, no typeswriters, no computers, no Internet, no magazines, no movie credits, no shopping lists, no newspapers, no tax returns. But such __________ (31) of subjects almost miss the point. The world we live in has been indelibly marked by the written word, __________ (32) by the technology of writing over thousands of years. Ancient kings proclaimed their authority and __________ (33) their laws in writing. Scribes administered great empires by writing, their knowledge of recording and retrieving information essential to governing complex societies. Religious traditions were passed on through __________ (34), and spread to others, in writing. Scientific and technological progress was achieved and __________ (35) through writing. Accounts in trade and commerce could be kept because of writing. Nearly every step of civilization has been mediated through writing. A world without writing would bear __________ (36) resemblance to the one we now live in. Writing is a __________ (37)necessity to the societies anthropologists call civilizations. A civilization is distinguished from other societies by the complexity of its social organization, by its construction of cities and large public buildings, and by the economic specialization of its members, many of whom are not __________ (38) involved in food procurement or production. A civilization, with its taxation and tribute systems, its trade, and its public works, requires a __________ (39) system of record keeping. And so the early civilizations of Egypt, China, and (probably) India all developed a system of writing. Only the Peruvian civilization of the Incas and their predecessors did not use writing but __________ (40) invented a system of keeping records on knotted color-coded strings known as quipu.PART V READING COMPREHENSION [35 MIN]SECTION A MUTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONSIn this section there are three passages followed by ten multiple choice questions. For each multiple choice question, there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that you think is the best answer. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET TWO.PASSAGE ONE(1)When I was twenty-seven years old, I was a mining-broker’s clerk in San Francisco, and an expert in all the details of stock traffic, I was alone in the world, and had nothing to depend upon but my wits and a clean reputation; but these were setting my feet in the road to eventual fortune, and I was content with the prospect. My time was my own after the afternoon board, Saturdays, and I was accustomed to putting it in on a little sail-boat on the bay. One day I ventured too far, and was carried out to sea. Just at nightfall, when hope was about gone, I was picked up by a small ship which was bound for London. It was a long and stormy voyage, and they made me work my passage without pay, as a common sailor. When I stepped ashore in London my clothes were ragged and shabby, and I had only a dollar in my pocket. This money fed and sheltered me twenty-four hours. During the next twenty-four I went without food and shelter.(2)About ten o’clock on the following morning, dirty and hungry, I was dragging myself along Portland Place, when a child that was passing, towed by a nurse-maid, tossed a big pear——minus one bite——into the gutter. I stopped, of course, and fastened my desiring eye on that muddy treasure. My mouth watered for it, my stomach craved it, my whole being begged for it. But every time I made a move to get it some passing eye detected my purpose, and of course I straightened up then, and looked indifferent and pretended that I hadn’t been thinking about the pear at all. This same thing kept happening and happening, and I couldn’t get the pear.(3)I was just getting desperate enough to brave all the shame, and to seize it, when a window behind me was raised, and a gentleman spoke out of it, saying:“ Step in here, please.”(4)I was admitted by a man servant, and shown into a sumptuous room where a couple of elderly gentlemen were sitting. They sent away the servant, and made me sit down. They had just finished their breakfast, and the sight of the remains of it almost overpowered me. I could hardly keep my wits together in the presence of that food, but as I was not asked to sample it, I had to bear my trouble as best as I could.(5)Now, something had been happening there a little before, which I did not know anything about until a good many days afterwards, but I will tell you about it now. Those two old brothers had been having a pretty hot argument a couple of days before, and had ended by agreeing to decide it by a bet, which is the English way of settling everything.(6)You will remember that the Bank of England once issued two notes of a million pounds each, to be used for a special purpose connected with some public transaction with a foreign country. For some reason or other only one of these had been used and canceled; the other still lay in the vaults of the Bank. Well, the brothers, chatting along, happened to get to wondering what might be the fate of a perfectly honest and intelligent stranger who should be turned adrift in London without a friend, and with no money but that million-pound bank-note, and no way to account for his being in possession of it. Brother A said he would starve to death; Brother B said he wouldn’t. Brother A said he couldn’t offer it at a bank or anywhere else, because he would be arrested on the spot. So they went on disputing till Brother B said he would bet twenty thousand pounds that the man would live thirty days, anyway, on that million, and keep out of jail, too. Brother A took him up. Brother B went down to the Bank and bought that note. Then he dictated a letter, which one of his clerks wrote out in a beautiful round hand, and then the two brothers sat at the window a whole day watching for the right man to give it to.(7)I finally became the pick of it.41. In Para. 1, the phrase “set my feet” probably means __________.A. put me asideB. start my journeyC. prepare meD. let me walk42. It can be concluded from Para. 2 that __________.A. the man wanted to maintain dignity though starvedB. the man could not get a proper chance to eat the pearC. The man did not really want the pear since it was dirtyD. it was very difficult for the man to get the pear43. Compared with Brother A, Brother B was more __________ towards the effect of theone-million-pound bank-note on a total strange.A. neutralB. negativeC. reservedD. positivePASSAGE TWO(1)The concept of peace is a very important one in cultures all over the world. Think about how we greet people. In some language, the phrases for greetings contain the word for peace. In some cultures we greet people by shaking hands or with another gesture to show that we are not carrying weapons --- that we come in peace. And there are certain symbols which people in very different cultures recognize as representing peace. Let’s look at a few of them.The dove(2)The dove has been a symbol of peace and innocence for thousands of years in many different cultures. In ancient Greek mythology it was a symbol of love and the renewal of life. In ancient Japan a dove carrying a sword symbolized the end of war.(3)There was a tradition in Europe that if dove flew around a house where someone was dying then their soul would be at peace. And there are legends which say that devil can turn himself into any bird except for a dove. In Christian art, the dove was used to symbolized the Holy Ghost and was often painted above Christ’s head.(4)But it was Pablo Picasso who made the dove a modern symbol of peace when he used it on a poster for the World Peace Congress in 1949.The rainbow(5)The rainbow is another ancient and universal symbol, often representing the connection between human beings and their gods. In Greek mythology it was associated with Iris, the goddess who brought messages from the gods on Mount Olympus. In Scandinavian mythology the rainbow was a bridge between the gods and the earth. In the Bible a rainbow showed Noah that the Biblical flood was finally over, and that God had forgiven his people. In the Chinese tradition, the rainbow is a common symbol for marriage because the colours represent the union of yin and yang. Nowadays the rainbow is used by many popular movements for peace and the environment, representing the possibility of a better world in the future and promising sunshine after rain.Mistletoe(6)This plant was sacred in many cultures, generally representing peace and love. Most people know of the tradition of kissing under the mistletoe at Christmas time, which probably comes from Scandinavian mythology. The goddess Freya’s son was killed by an arrow made of mistletoe, so, in honour of him, she declared that it would always be a symbol of peace. It was often hung in doorways as a sign of friendship.(7)The ancient Druids believed that hanging mistletoe in your doorway could protect you from evil spirits. Tribes would stop fighting for a period of time if they found a tree with mistletoe. But you will never see mistletoe in a Christian church - it is banned because of its associations with pagan religion andsuperstition.The olive branch(8)The olive tree has always been a valuable source of food and oil. In Greek mythology, the goddess Athena gave the olive tree to the people of Athens, who showed their gratitude by naming the city after her. But no one knows for sure when or why it began to symbolize peace. There is probably a connection with ancient Greece. Wars between states were suspended during the Olympics Games, and the winners were given crowns of olive branches. The symbolism may come from the fact that the olive tree takes a long time to produce fruit, so olives could only be cultivated successfully in long periods of peace. Whatever the history, the olive branch is a part of many modern flags symbolizing peace and unity. One well-known example is the United Nations symbol.The ankh(9)The ankh is an ancient symbol which was adopted by the hippie movement in the 1960s to represent peace and love. It was found in many Asian cultures, but is generally associated with ancient Egypt. It represented life and immortality. Egyptians were buried with an ankh, so that they could continue to live in the “afterworld”. The symbol was also found along the sides of the Nile, which gave life to the people. They believed that the ankh could control the flow of the river and make sure that there was always enough water.44.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Concept of Peace.B. Origin of Peace Symbols.C. Popular Peace Symbols.D. Cultural Difference of Peace.45.The rainbow represents the connection between human beings and their gods inall thefollowing countries EXCEPT __________.A. SwedenB. GreeceC. FinlandD. China46.In North Europe mistletoe was often hung in doorways to indicate __________.A. friendshipB. loveC. kinshipD. honour47.The origin of the ankh can date back to __________.A. the NileB. the “afterword”C. the hippie movementD. ancient EgyptPASSAGE THREE(1)Two sides almost never change: That you can manipulate people into self-sufficiency and that you can punish them into good citizenship.(2)The first manifests itself in our tireless search for the magical level at which welfare grants are big enough to meet basic needs but small enough to make low-paid work attractive. The second has us looking to the criminal justice system to cure behavior that is as much as anything the result of despair.(3)The welfare example is well known. We don’t want poor people to live in squalor or their children to be malnourished. But we also don’t want to subsidize the indolence of people who are too lazy to work. The first impulse leads us to provide housing, food stamps, medical care and a cash stipend for families in need. The second gets us to think about “workforce”.(4)We’ve been thinking about it for two reasons: the “nanny” problems of two high-ranking government officials (who hired undocumented foreigners as household helpers, presumably because they couldn’t find Americans to do the work) and President Clinton’s proposal to put a two-year limit on welfare.(5)Maybe something useful will come of Clinto n’s idea, but I’m not all that hopeful. It looks to me like one more example of trying to manipulate people into taking care of themselves.(6)On the criminal justice side, we hope to make punishment tough enough to discourage crime but not so tough as to clog our prisons with relatively minor offenders. Too short a sentence, we fear, will create contempt for the law. Too longa sentence will take up costly space better used for the violent and unremorseful.(7)Not only can we never find the “perfect” punishme nt, our search for optimum penalties is complicated by our desire for fairness: to let the punishment fit the crime. The problem is that almost any punishment --- even the disgrace of being charged with a crime --- is sufficient to deter the middle class, while for members of the underclass, probation may be translated as “I beat it”.(8)So how can you use the system --- welfare or criminal justice --- to produce the behavior we want? The answer, I suspect is: You can’t.(9)We keep trying to use welfare and prison to change people --- to make them think and behave the way we do --- when the truth is the incentives work only for those who already think the way we do: who view today’s action with an eye on the future.(10)We will take lowly work (if that is all that’s a vailable) because we believe we can make bad jobs work for us. We avoid crime not because we are better people but because we see getting caught as a future-wrecking disaster. We are guided by a belief that good things will happen for us in the future if we take proper care of the present. Even under the worst of circumstances, we believe we are in control of our lives.(11)And we have trouble understanding that not everybody believes as we believe.The welfare rolls, the prison and the mean street of our cities are full of people who have given up on their future. Without hope for the future, hard work at a low-paid job makes no sense. Working hard in school, or pleasing a boss, or avoiding pregnancy makes no sense. The deadly disease is hopelessness. The lawlessness and poverty are only the obvious symptoms.(12)I’m not advocating that we stop looking for incentives to move poor people toward self-sufficiency or that we stop punishing people for criminal behavior. There will always be some people who need help and some who deserve to be in jail.(13)All I’m saying is that the long-term answer both to welfare and the crime that plagues our communities is not to fine tune the welfare and criminal justice systems but to prevent our children from getting the disease of despair.(14)If we encourage our young people to believe in the future, and give them solid evidence for believing, we’ll find both crime and poverty shrinking to manageable proportions.48. What is the author’s attitude towards Clinton’s proposal to welfar e?A. Pessimistic.B. Optimistic.C. Suspicious.D. Sarcastic.49.

英语四级听力新题型解析及答题技巧精选全文
可编辑修改精选全文完整版英语四级听力新题型解析及答题技巧英语四级听力新题型解析及答题技巧从2016年开始，英语四级听力部分题型有了一些改变，针对这种改变我们应该如何有针对性的进行备考，今天我们来讲一讲关于听力部分题型改变之新增题型——短篇新闻类答题技巧。
一、四级听力题型变化自2016年6月考试起，全国大学英语四、六级考试委员会将对四级考试的听力试题作局部调整。
调整的相关内容说明如下：1.取消短对话。
2.取消短文听写。
3.新增短篇新闻(3段)，每段设置2—3个小题，共7题，每小题1分，新闻长度130—190词。
4.长对话(2段)由原来的共7题调整为共8题，每小题1分，对话长度不变。
5.短文理解(3段)题型不变，分值由原来的'每小题1分调整为每小题2分。
6.考试时间由原来的35分钟减为25分钟。
二、新闻英语文体特点(一) 新闻报道“六大要素”新闻报道里的“六大要素”即常说的“人物(who)、时间(when)、地点(where)、事件(what)、原因(why)和方式(how)”。
在英语短新闻或内容提要中至少包括其中三个要素：who，what和when，这些是新闻报道中最具价值的三要素。
(二) 倒金字塔结构所谓倒金字塔结构，也称为倒叙法，即按新闻事实重要程度由要点到细节逐步扩展，安排全文。
倒金字塔结构把最重要的事实置于全文的第一句中，即新闻导语(the news lead)。
导语告知听众最新鲜、最关心、最重要的事实，如事件(what)、时间(when)、地点(where)、人物(who)以及原因(why)和方式(how)。
新闻导语是对整条新闻内容的高度概括，听懂了导语，也就听懂了新闻的主要内容。
当然，由于新闻报道的侧重点不同，有时新闻导语可能只包含其中的几个要素。
(三) 新闻英语词汇特点1.常用词汇表示特殊含义新闻报道常使用某些常见词汇来表达事实和事件，这些词汇经过长期使用逐渐取得与新闻报道相联系的特殊意义，成为新闻体词语(journalistic words)。

例题 1 PART VI WRITING Read carefully the following excerpt and then write your response in NO LESS THAN 200 WORDS, in which you should: 1) Summarize the main message of the excerpt, and then 2) Comment on whether students learn more from classes than from other resources You can support yourself with information from theexcerpt. Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organization and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks. Do students learn more from classes than from other resources? With the advent of the Internet and other telecommunications technologies, there is a vastly growing wealth of resources available from an immense range of media outlets. Students have the ability to absorb information in a quicker and more efficient way when researching on their own through reading publications or browsing webpages online. As a result, some people argue that students now learn more from other resources than from classes. Conducting research with online materials is an active process, which allows youngsters to focus in greater detail rather than passively listening to a lecture in a large classroom.The Internet and TV are also easily accessible platforms for students in the remote places where teaching resources are not as abundant as those in more developed regions. However, teachers have the capability of explaining the knowledge in a deeper way and not only provide theoretical explanation but also practical experience about life. They have accumulated a large body of intelligence that is profoundly more precise than other sources. Teachers not only function as initiators who impart knowledge but also serve as supervisors or guardians. The conventional role of instructors, in this day and age, has evolved to become evaluators and facilitators, guiding students in their academic and personal efforts.范文1 In the information age, the traditional student-teacher relationship has been affected deeply and people begin to doubt whether students can learn morefrom classes than from other resources. According to the conventional view, teachers are still the primary source from which students obtain professional knowledge, timely class interaction, and effective supervision from the contrary, nowadays, many people believe that students can learn more from other resources such as Internet and TV since they are more accessible and engage students more actively in research. For me, I am in favor of the first view. Teachers play an irreplaceable role in education, whether it’s in the past or at present, since they not only impart knowledge, but also educate people. For one thing, what students learn from their classes is more precise than from other resources which provide an enormous amount of data needed to be sifted through to determine which information is another, teachers in school put the shapingof personality in a place as important as the teaching of knowledge, which is hard for students to obtain from other resource. In conclusion, the development of cutting-edge technology exerts a big impact on modern education. However, it can never eliminate the need for high-quality professionals in classroom.

2016专四改革信息及备考建议
2016专四改革信息及备考建议听力：1. 听写部分保留，由15个句群，变成10个句群。
2. 增加新题型：listening & gap filling，与专八MINI-LECTURE 格局类似，但难度降低，填空试卷提前发放(待确认)，按听力材料进行填空。
3. 两段长对话题目，每段内容约500词，卷面只有选项，无问题(与四六级形式一致)。
4. 新闻听力取消。
完型填空：完型填空由原始20个选择题，变为15选10 的选词填空(与四六级形式一致)。
语法词汇：保留，由30题降至20题。
阅读：包括两部分：选择题及简答题。
简答题目答案有单词数量限制。
写作：便条写作(小作文)取消，大作文以材料作文为主题，约200词。
建昆分析：1. 听写虽然变成10个句群，但有可能句子加长，所以难度未知;听力部分最大难点来自于类似专八的GAP-FILLING 听力填空题，及选择题卷面问题的消失。
2. 阅读出现主观总结题目，难度增加。
3. 完型变成选词填空，难度减少;大作文分值有可能相应增加。
建昆的暑假及秋季总体备考建议1. 过往真题中，专四听力新闻完型小作文部分宣告作废。
2. 单词书持续有用，例如“专业四级绝对高频词”，不管题目怎么变，单词不变。
3. 听力部分，迷你演讲题目开始比重加大，且问题不在出现在卷面上，所以，必须练习速记。
4. 阅读部分的简答难度未必很大，没有专门训练得分估计很低。
5. 准确信息出台之前，背单词，听听力，做阅读，练写译。
准确信息出台后，有空听考神团队的专业课程。
6. 任何改革第一次，不会太难，所以，16年，你有机会。

2016英语专四考试改革 解析题型及策略
英语专四考试改革解析题型及”新“备考建议专四改革说明及“新”备考建议首先，在考试政策上的一大调整为：即便专四没有通过，同样可以报考专八！这一消息对各位考生非常有利。
因为之前专四不通过就不能报考专八，不但导致不少同学挫败感和压力非常大，而且确实也有不少考生因准备”二战“专四而分散了准备专八的精力。
其次，输入部分的难度降低。
具体表现在：1）听写从原来的15处句子填空，改为10处；2）听力不再考查新闻听力新闻听力以前一直是难点，考生心中之痛。
因为新闻的语速非常快，但每段材料包含的信息量却非常大，往往考生还没反应出刚刚听到的是什么内容，该段新闻就结束了。
3）阅读理解取消了完形填空，改为与四、六级类似的15选10；4）语法题目由原来30道，减少为20道；相应备考策略变化No.1：尽量把听力部分的分数冲高！听力部分用以前难度更高的真题练习，反而有利于当前的考试，“练难考易”是应对考试极佳的一大策略。
阅读部分在没有更多新题目出来以前，不妨多拿六级的15选10进行练手。
虽然六级题目难度略低，但做题的“手感”保持好，也会对考场上的阅读速度提高有不少帮助。
专四阅读在考场上最大的挑战不再是词汇、语法、语篇等的不懂和纠结，而是题量大，阅读速度的一场较量！3）语法题目题量虽然减少，但是通过历年真题的反复训练，这部分基本是“必得分”。
换句话说，这部分只要多练，考场就有机会拿满分。
因此，仍然不可轻视。
不过，输出部分比重上升，难度有所提升。
具体表现在：1）听力部分新增听力笔记填空（gap-filling），不过比专八稍简单的是会提前发试卷，可预读和预判；2）阅读新增简答题，且回答字数有限制；3）作文部分需要在两篇既定文章基础上，在30分钟内，写出一篇200词左右的摘要写作型议论文。
这一题型在PETS4级最新改革的样卷中也有出现。
相应备考策略变化No.2：1）专四的gap-filling题，考生不妨直接提前用专八以前的历年真题进行练习，同样是“练难考易”这一原理，充分运用。
6月大学英语四级题型改革
6月大学英语四级题型改革2016年6月大学英语四级题型改革从2016年6月起，英语四六级考试题型将进行改革，改革之后的题型究竟有哪些变化呢?下面和店铺一起来看看。
四级听力试题的调整原题型：8短对话+2长对话+3短文+1短文填空新题型：3新闻+2长对话+3短文调整后四级听力部分的试题结构见下表：下面是有关适应听力改革的一些建议要点一：要详略适当听到英语新闻，不要被个体专用名词，如人名、国名地名、组织机构名等吓倒。
要知道，对于往年的部分听力考题，这些专用名词听不懂也不影响解答，是属于可以忽略不听的信息。
此外，新闻的体裁结构特色光鲜，即呈倒金字塔结构，重点信息集中在开首尤其第一句话，接下来则是着重细节展开的分述性信息。
开首第一句话为新闻导语，相当于全文的主题句，要具体把握和听懂这一句话，然后把握全文基调，利于理解。
要点二：新闻六要素一篇尺度的新闻报道，必需搜罗六大要素，可归纳综合为5个W 和1个H，具体如下-When--新闻发生时刻Where--新闻发生地址Who--新闻涉及人物What--所发生的新闻事务Why--为何会发生这一新闻事务How--新闻事务的布景，若何会诱发、促成这一事务;后续情形若何所谓要点，对于考试问题来说就是考点。
所以，考生如果在听的时候把握以上新闻六要素，就可轻松理清头绪，条分缕析地把握新闻内容。
要点三：联系上下文增加理解因为新闻播报的非凡性，一篇新闻内在结构往往很是慎密，内容环环相扣，这对考生来说是一种优势--如碰着某些听不懂的内容，马上联系上下文，尤其是开首的新闻导语主题句，借助全篇总体内容，理解听到的.个体细节。
此外，日常平常也要多注重堆集，多听、多看中文新闻，熟悉最新的国际时事，尤颇政治、经济、军事、重大科研进展等方面的事务，这样再过渡到听英语的新闻，就可联想现有常识来辅佐理解。
备考资料真题仍旧是最为重要的练习材料。
建议将历年的真题反复听，仔细听，连续听至少三轮，将没听清楚，不能确定，没及时反应出来的地方标出来反复听，对照参考答案认真分析。
专四专八考试新题型必看
专四专八考试新题型必看2016年专四专八考试新题型必看2016年英语专业四、八级考试都有新的变化，为帮助考生在复习当中提高效率，店铺整理了2016耐专四专八备考中要用到的新题型，希望帮助到大家。
专业四级一、总体调整1. “听写”从15分钟减为10分钟，分值相应少了5分;2. 取消“新闻听力”，增加“听写填空”，占10分;3. “语法词汇”从15分钟减为10分钟，题量由30题减为20题，但分值从15分增加到20分;4.“完形填空”从15分钟减为10分钟，题量由20题减为10题——提供15个单词，选出10个;5. “阅读理解”仍然四篇，但增加5道“简答题”，所以考试时间从原来的25分钟，增加到35分钟，但分值仍然是20分;6. “写作”时间仍是45分钟，取消“小作文”，只写一篇200词左右的文章，分值从15分增加到20分;7. 考试总时间从135分钟减为130分钟。
题型改革后，有些“解析”认为专四考试难度提升。
果真如此吗?笔者认为，未必，或者恰恰相反，难度降低了，考试也更人性化了。
请看笔者详细解读：二、详细解读1. Dictation(听写)10分：听写最能考察学生的基本功，该题型得以保留。
但文章的长度减少了三分之一，即从原来的150词左右(注：2005年听写文章The Wrist Watch 共计158词，2009年听写文章New Year's Eve 共计147词)减为90词左右。
这其实就是降低了难度，减轻了学生的心里压力。
因为很多同学害怕听写，历年来该题型的得分率也往往最低。
得分低的题型减少题量和分值比重，的确是个好消息!另外一个小细节，以往听写最后磁带上留出2分钟的时间让学生检查，现在减为1分钟了。
所以请大家争取一次写好写工整!即便是给你2分钟，也来不及重新抄写一遍。
2.Listening Comprehension (听力理解)20分Section A Talk(讲座)10分：新增题型Gap-filling(填空)。

专四改革新政及备考建议
专四改革新政及备考建议作者：纪军来源：《新东方英语》2016年第01期2015年8月，高校外语专业教学测试办公室发布了《关于英语专业四级考试（TEM 4）题型调整的说明》，并宣布从2016年起对专四考试的试卷结构和测试题型做局部调整，将专四考试由过去的以知识能力为主导的考试变为以语言运用能力为主导的考试。
改革后的专四考试增加了很多新题型，如听力理解部分的讲座和阅读理解部分的简答题等，考试时间由原来的135分钟减至130分钟，令很多考生觉得考试难度陡增，感到措手不及。
为帮助考生应对改革后的专四考试，本文笔者将结合“新专四”各部分的题型来介绍改革内容，并为考生提供相应的备考建议。
听写题要求考生在全面理解录音内容的基础上逐词逐句写出所听材料的内容，主要考查考生的听力理解能力、拼写熟练程度以及正确运用标点符号的能力。
根据官方发布的改革说明，听写题并没有大的改变。
但笔者通过研究官方发布的样卷发现，样卷中听写材料的长度为91个单词，比历年专四真题听写材料的长度（150词左右）减少了1/3，考试时间从原来的15分钟减至10分钟。
由此可见，改革后的听写题其实降低了难度。
备考建议：听写题是很多考生都比较畏惧的题型，得分率在听力各题型中往往最低。
针对听写题，比较有效的训练方法是每1～2天做一次“精听”听写训练。
复习前期，考生可以广泛选取各种材料（但不宜选取生词、俗语过多以及长度过长的材料）进行听写，反复播放音频材料，边听边记，直至记下自己能听懂、能确定的每一个细节（包括标点），然后核对文稿，标出错误。
考生随后要分析自己出错的地方（如拼写错误、认识却不熟悉发音的单词、理解有误的意群等），找出解决办法，并通过长期训练克服这些问题，提高听写水平。
冲刺阶段，考生可将训练材料换成专四真题或模拟题，尽可能熟悉题型，锻炼解题技巧。
此外，考生在作答时一定要放松心态，减轻心理压力，以便发挥最佳水平。
笔者还有一点要提醒考生：改革之前听写题的检查时间为2分钟，现在减为1分钟，因此，考生在作答时不要太急于下笔，尽可能确保所写答案的正确率，同时注意书写工整，以减少修改所需的时间。
2016新专四讲座解题思路
取信息的能力，较有难度，但试卷在听录音之前发放，
考生有30秒预览试题的时间，这在一定程度上降低了
答题难度。这部分需要考生记好笔记，同时在笔记中
提取有效信息来完成填空任务，所以考生要多加练习，
掌握记笔记的技巧，以取得高分。

英语专业四级语法题型分析及备考策略
英语专业四级语法题型分析英语专业四级的这类题型，在2015年及之前被叫做“GRAMMAR&VOCABULARY”，2016年开始称为LANGUAGE USAGE（语言用法）。
共计20道题，既考词汇又考语法。
语法部分的题目一直考得很碎、很杂，而且现在开始考情态动词的作用、某些时态表现的意义，甚至判断那些句子有问题或者没有问题等等，考的方式可以说是花样翻新。
不过语法部分最最常考的考点还是要告诉大家的：虚拟语气（重点）非谓语动词（不定式、现在分词&过去分词）定语从句（限制性&非限制性定语从句，加介词的定语从句）名词性从句（主、宾、表、同，同位语从句和定语从句经常容易混淆）状语从句（一般带-ever类的从句总会出现在考试题目中）主被动语态主谓一致其他也会有一些冠词、单复数、甚至是反问句那种小的语法点也会在题目中出现，不是重点的部分不代表不看，丢1分影响一个等级也是不值得的。
词汇部分也是什么都考，形近词、意近词、固定搭配、介词短语搭配等等。
有的年份还考了四个选项中哪个词是划线部分的近义词。
看来词汇考查的要求也越来越细致了。
词汇的题如此之多，很难找出哪些部分是重点。
不过答这类题还是有一些技巧的，具体如下：1.根据上下文的补充说明关系2.根据上下文因果关系3.根据上下文转折关系4.根据构词法推测单词含义5.根据固定搭配选择6.区分动词的及物与不及物7.区分施动者与动作对象8.利用动词词组中的介词或副词这两个部分的提高是慢功夫。
有些急脾气的同学往往采用刷题的方式，想在一两个月内在这方面有质的飞跃。
不过，同学们很难预测下一套题的考察重点如何，难度也不好说。
最好的办法就是平常的时候多积累，有错题一定要勤总结，不要在同一道题错两回。
专四阅读新题型揭秘
专四阅读新题型揭秘专四阅读新题型揭秘引导语：2016年6月，英语专四考试内容大换新，其中，阅读题型也将进行一定得调整。
下面店铺就为大家带来新题型的揭秘吧。
一、阅读题型改革1. 传统的多项选择题由20道题减少到10道题。
阅读选材的长度和难度与原来相比，并没有太大的变化，唯一的变化是多项选择题的数量减少了。
2. 新增了5道简答题，更加强调语言表达和组织能力。
简答题的题目是根据前面四篇传统阅读(多项选择题)的文章进行设置，每篇文章中设置1-2道题，一共是5道题。
对于答案的字数也有要求——不能多于10个词，这就要求考生具有较好的概括能力，准确归纳出符合题目要求的内容作为答案。
看到此处，是否已是几家欢喜几家愁?有人欢呼：“OH，yeah，多出了10分钟，减少了5道题,世上竟有这好事，已无法在爱的更多”;而有人则哀叹：“简答题啊简单题，想说爱你何不容易。
”二、如何应对新题型?方法一：首先备考心态上，首先透过现象看本质，以不变应万变。
对比新旧大纲，专四阅读的测试只在测试形式和时间上有上述的变化，其材料难度和长度均没有太大变化。
所以，考生要稳定心态，尽管题目考查形式上有所变化，其考查目的和选材原则不变，所谓万变不离其宗，微调备考策略，以不变应万变。
方法二：答题高分技巧——同样的时间，同样的题目，不同的应战方针，会有不用的答题效果。
由于问答题是基于前面4篇文章进行设置的，所以做题时，应以一篇文章为单位，同时解答Section A和Section B的题目，这样可以节省时间，提高做题效率。
方法三：简答题应对技巧注：鉴于考生熟知选择题阅读，而简答题为新增题型，故本次只对新题型简答题的题型和应试技巧详细介绍。
三、四大题型分析简答题是此次命题改革后的新增题型，通过对最新考纲样题的分析，可以得出简答题的题型与选择题的题型基本一致。
以细节类问题为主，也有主旨题、推断题和语义题，提问方式大多以wh-question 为主。
(一) 具体细节题这类题所占比重最大。
2016年大学英语四级考试的改革与变化
2016年大学英语四级考试的改革与变化今天小编为英语四级考生带来了6月份四级考试的相关情况，希望对参加12月份考试的四级考生有帮助。
6月18日，全国大学生英语四级考试尘埃落定。
今年是听力改革的第一年，删除了大家早已熟练的老题型：短对话和听写，增加了对同学们来说相对陌生的新闻听力。
听力改革第一年,四级考试究竟发生了什么变化?第一、听力部分——大纲样题与真题差异过大大纲样题与真题有很大的差异，这让听力部分成为广大考生的槽点。
特别是关于新闻内容的听力，样题是一人朗读，而真题变身“二人转”，让广大考生大呼意外。
但只要把握好基本的发音规律和出题规律，还是可以以不变应万变的，在此也提醒广大考生，要想解决听力的问题，首先要解决读音的问题，如果连读音都错了，想听出来自然是天方夜谭。
第二、阅读部分——四级阅读部分今年相对平稳首先，今年的选词填空再次强调英语的硬实力。
以其中一篇关于physical activity 和academic performance之争的文章为例，考察了4个名词，2个动词，2个副词，1个形容词和1个非谓语动词，所以梳理词性就显得非常重要。
其次，通过搭配直接解题的有2个。
1个固定搭配的be essential to和1个常见搭配struggle to survive on sth，考逻辑关系中的并列关系and的也有两道。
这种题型被调侃为送分题，但这个送，也不是白送，必须是建立在平时夯实的词汇量的基础上的。
三、段落匹配部分——段落匹配题其实是“纸老虎”这类题型看上去篇幅长，内容多，题量大，但如果按照基本解题步骤——串联题干，梳理逻辑，逐段排查找答案，拿到一个高比例的分值是很有可能的。
在此，提醒大家，要注意运用辩证思维来做题，越是看上去需要快点做的，越是要仔细地慢慢排查，否则得不偿失。
四、仔细阅读部分——得规律者得高分这部分真正将理念真题的规律体现得淋漓尽致，以mental function减退文章为例，典型的，一个中心，对比论证，特别是在出题当中也体现了这样的技巧。

第一遍用正常速度朗读，录音语速为每分钟120个单词，让学生听懂材料大意。
第二、三遍朗读时意群、分句和句子之间留出15秒的空隙，让学生书写。
第四遍再用正常速度朗读，让学生检查。
听写部分的主要变化是：1. 短文字数由原来的150词左右改为80-90词。
2. 考试时间由原来的15分钟改为10分钟。
二、听力理解部分的变化最大本部分采用填空题和选择题，分两节：Section A和Section B，共20题。
本部分测试要求为:(a) 能听懂英语国家人士关于日常生活、社会生活和学习的演讲和会话。
能理解大意，领会说话者的态度、感情和真实意图。
(b) 能做简单笔记。
(c) 能辨别各种英语变体(如美国英语、英国英语、澳大利亚英语等)。
(d) 考试时间约20分钟。
1. 新增讲座题型，听前发卷。
本部分由一个约500个单词的微型讲座和一项填空任务组成。
考试时间10分钟，共10道填空题，注意作答时，每个空格不能超过3个单词。
题目要求学生边听边做笔记，然后完成填空任务。
主要考查考生抓住文章逻辑及要点的能力，较有难度，但试卷在听录音之前发放，考生有30秒预览试题的时间，这在一定程度上降低了答题难度。
这部分需要考生记好笔记，同时在笔记中提取有效信息来完成填空任务，所以考生要多加练习，掌握记笔记的技巧，以取得高分。
2. 取消短文与新闻听力。
3. 会话由原来的3篇改为2篇。
本部分由两个约450个单词的会话组成，会话通常为一男一女就某个或某几个话题进行问答，以求得到彼此希望获得的信息或答案，或求得一致意见。
会话前有30秒钟时间阅读10道题各选项，每道题后有10秒的'间隙，要求学生听到问题后从所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。

英语专四考试改革解析题型及”新“备考建议
专四改革说明及“新”备考建议
首先，在考试政策上的一大调整为：即便专四没有通过，同样可以报考专八！
这一消息对各位考生非常有利。
因为之前专四不通过就不能报考专八，不但导致不少同学挫败感和压力非常大，而且确实也有不少考生因准备”二战“专四而分散了准备专八的精力。
其次，输入部分的难度降低。
具体表现在：
1）听写从原来的15处句子填空，改为10处；
2）听力不再考查新闻听力
新闻听力以前一直是难点，考生心中之痛。
因为新闻的语速非常快，但每段材料包含的信息量却非常大，往往考生还没反应出
刚刚听到的是什么内容，该段新闻就结束了。
3）阅读理解取消了完形填空，改为与四、六级类似的15选10；
4）语法题目由原来30道，减少为20道；
相应备考策略变化No.1：
尽量把听力部分的分数冲高！
听力部分用以前难度更高的真题练习，反而有利于当前的考试，“练难考易”是应对考试极佳的一大策略。
阅读部分在没有更多新题目出来以前，不妨多拿六级的15选10进行练手。
虽然六级题目难度略低，但做题的“手感”保持好，也会对考场上的阅读速度提高有不少帮助。
专四阅读在考场上最大的挑战不再是词汇、语法、语篇等的不懂和纠结，而是题量大，阅读速度的一场较量！
3）语法题目题量虽然减少，但是通过历年真题的反复训练，这部分基本是“必得分”。
换句话说，这部分只要多练，考场就有机会拿满分。
因此，仍然不可轻视。
不过，输出部分比重上升，难度有所提升。
具体表现在：
1）听力部分新增听力笔记填空
（gap-filling），不过比专八稍简单的是会提前发试卷，可预读和预判；
2）阅读新增简答题，且回答字数有限制；
3）作文部分需要在两篇既定文章基础上，在30分钟内，写出一篇200词左右的摘要写作型议论文。
这一题型在PETS4级最新改革的样卷中也有出现。
相应备考策略变化No.2：
1）专四的gap-filling题，考生不妨直接提前用专八以前的历年真题进行练习，同样是“练难考易”这一原理，充分运用。
2）阅读简答题在四、六级2006-2012年的快速阅读考题中有这一类似题型，考生可以在网上搜索进行练手，但总体而言，简答题在阅读部分的复习时间不必太多，重点还应放在传统的多项选择（四选一）的阅读理解上，尤其是阅读速度的保证！
3）原本两个部分的写作则合并为一个，但是采用的方式为读写结合，对学生能力的要求有所提升，这种写作考察方式也是如今各大考试的主流。
试题会提供素材，然后学生就该素材进行一个简短summary并进行comment,并规定了最低词数200，但需注意的是，summary部分不能超过文章总篇幅的1/3，否则可能会对分数造成影响。
这种摘要写作型议论文，大家千万不要被“唬”住。
就写作思路而言，本题型和PETS4级这一题型有“异曲同工之妙”。
虽然专四
考试大纲样卷并没有给出参考范文，但就PETS4级大纲给出的各档次样文来看，摘要部分并非重点，用1-2句话简短提炼下文章观点，再从文章中的观点引出自己的观点即可。
而接下来仍然是大家非常熟悉的“三段式”议论文写作，论证观点，总结观点！
综上所述，改革后的考试更加注重灵活运用，整体难度有所上升。
要想顺利通过，阅读、听力这两大难度有所下降的部分，尽量多拿分；要想拿取高分，务必要重视写作、翻译的输出训练，多动笔，多操练！。
