How did the woman student respond to her way of teaching English?25. What does the woman say about her stage fright?Section B Short PassagesPassage OneIn January 1989, the Community of European Railways presented their proposal for a high speed pan-European train network, extending from Sweden to Sicily and from Portugal to Poland by the year 2020. If their proposal becomes a reality, it will revolutionize train travel in Europe. Journeys between major cities will take half the time they take today. Brussels will be only one and half hours from Paris. The quickest way to get from Paris to Frankfurt, from Barcelona to Madrid will be by train, not plane.When the network is complete, it will integrate three types of railway line, totally new high-speed lines, with trains operating its speeds of 300kms per hour; upgraded lines, which allow for speeds up to 200 to 225 kms per hour and existing lines, for local connections and distribution of freight. If business people can choose between a 3-hour train journey from city center to city center and 1-hour flight, they'll choose the train, said an executive travel consultant. They won't go by plane anymore. If you calculate flight time, check in and travel to and from the airport, you’ll find almost no difference and if your plane arrives late due to bad weather or air traffic jams or strikes, then the train passengers will arrive at their destination first.Since France introduced the first 260-km per hour high speed train service between Paris and Lyons in 1981, the trains have achieved higher and higher speeds. On many routes, airlines have lost up to 90 percent of their passengers to high speed trains. If people accept the community of European Railways’ plan, the 21st century will be the new age o f the train.Questions 26-29 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. What is the proposal presented by the Community of the European Railways?27. What will happen when the proposal becomes a reality?28. Why will business people prefer a 3-hour train journey to a 1-hour flight?29. When did France introduce the first high speed train service?Passage TwoWestern doctors are beginning to understand what traditional healers have always known that thebody and the mind are inseparable. Until recently, modern urban physicians heal the body, psychiatrists the mind and priests the soul. However, the medical world is now paying more attention to holistic medicine, which is an approach based on a belief that people’s state of mind can make them sick or speed the recovery from sickness.Several studies show that the effectiveness of a certain drug often depends on the patients expectations of it. For example, in one recent study, psychiatrists at a major hospital try to see how patients could be made calm. They divided them into two groups; one group was given a drug while the other group received a harmless substance instead of medicine without their knowledge. Surprisingly, more patients in the second group showed the desired effects than those in the first group.In study after study, there is a positive reaction in almost one third of the patients taking harmless substances. How is this possible? How can such a substance have an effect on the body? Evidence from a 1997 study at the University of California shows that several patients who receive such substances were able to produce their own natural drug, that is, as they took the substance, their brains released natural chemicals that act like a drug. Scientists theorize that the amount of these c hemicals released by a person’s brain quite possibly indicates how much faith the person has in his or her doctor.Questions 30-32 are based on the passage you have just heard.30. According to the speaker, what are western doctors beginning to understand?31. What does the recent study at a major hospital seem to prove?32. What evidence does the 1997 study of the University of California produce?Passage ThreeSo we’ve already talked a bit about the growth of extreme sports like rock-climbing. As psyc hologists, we need to ask ourselves “Why is this person doing this?”, “Why do people take these risks and put themselves in danger when they don’t have to?”One common trait among risk-takers is that they enjoy strong feelings or sensations. We call this trait “sensation seeking”. A sensation-seeker is someone who is always looking for new sensations. What else do we know about sensation seekers? Well, as I said, sensation-seekers like strong emotions. You can see this trait in many parts of a person’s lif e not just in extreme sports. For example, many sensation seekers enjoy hard rock music. They like the loud sound and strong emotions of the songs. Similarly, sensation-seekers enjoy frightening horror movies. They like the feeling of being scared and horrified while watching the movie. This feeling is even stronger for extreme sports where the person faces real danger. Sensation-seekers feel that danger is really exciting. In addition, sensation-seekers like new experiences that force them to push their personal limits. For them, repeating the same things everyday is boring. Many sensation-seekers choose jobs that involve risk, such as starting a new business or being an Emergency Room doctor. These jobs are different everyday, so they never know what will happen. That’s why many sensation-seekers also like extreme sports. When you do rock-climbing, you never know what will happen. The activity is always new and different.Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you’ve just heard.33. According to the speaker, what is a common trait among risk-takers?34. What do sensation-seekers find boring?35. What is the speaker’s profession?Section C Compound DictationIf you are like most people, you’ve indulged in fake listening many times. You go to history class, sitting in the third row, and look squarely at the instructor as she speaks, but your mind is far away, floating in the clouds of pleasant daydreams. Occasionally, you come back to earth. The instructor writes an important term on the chalkboard and you dutifully copy it in your notebook. Every once in a while the instructor makes a witty remark causing others in the class to laugh; you smile politely, pretending that you’ve heard the remark and found it mildly humorous. You have a vague sense of gui lt that you aren’t paying close attention, but you tell yourself that any material you miss can be picked up from a friend’s notes. Besides, the instructor is talking about road construction in ancient Rome and nothing could be more boring. So back you go into your private little world. Only later do you realize you’ve missed important information for a test. Fake listening may be easily exposed, since many speakers are sensitive to facial cues and can tell if you are merely pretending to listen. Your blank expression and far-away look in your eyes are the cues that betray your inattentiveness. Even if you are not exposed, there is another reason to avoid fakery. It’s easy for this behavior to become a habit. For some people, the habit is so deeply-rooted that they automatically start daydreaming when the speaker begins talking on something complex or uninteresting. As a result, they miss lots of valuable information.。

What did the woman do to follow the well-being menu?22. What did the woman say about other passengers?Conversation Two:W: Morning. Can I help you?M: Well, I’m not really sure.

And what do you mean “to keep on top”? M: The first thing is correspondence. We have a lot of standard letters and forms. So I suppose we need some kind of word processor.W: Right.

Please feel free to contact me.Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you’ve just heard:23. Where did the conversation take place?24. What are the speakers talking about?25. What is the man’s line of business?PassageP1The new year always brings with the cultural tradition of new possibilities. We see it as a chance for renewal. We begin to dream of new possible selves. We design ourideal self or an image that is quite different from what we are now. For some of us, we roll at dreamy film in our heads just because it’s the beginning of a newyear. But we aren’t serious about making changes. We just make some half-hearted resolution and it evaporates after a week or two. The experience makes us feel lesssuccessful and leads us to discount our ability tochange in the future. It’ not the change is impossible but that it won't lost unless our resolutions are supportedwith plans for implementation. We have to make our intentions manageable by detailing the specific steps that will carry us to our goal. Say your goal is to loseweight by dieting and cutting off sweets. But one night you just have to have a cookie. And you know there’s a bag of your favorites in the cupboard. You want one,you eat two, you check the bag and find out you’ve just shot 132 calories. You say to yourself, “What the hell!” and polish off the whole bag. Then you begin todraw all kinds of unpleasant conclusions about yourself. To protect your sense of self, you begin to discount the goal. You may think –“Well, dieting wasn’t thatimportant to me and I won’t make it anyhow.” So you abandon the goal and return to your bad habits.26 What do people usually wish to do at the beginning of a new year?27 How can people turn their new year’s resoluti ons into reality?28 Why does the speaker mention the example of sweets and cookies?P225 years ago, Ray Anderson, a single parent with a one-year-old son witnessed a terrible accident which took place when the driver of a truck ran a red light andcollided with the car of Sandra (?). The impact of the collision killed Sandra instantly. But her three-month-old daughter was left trapped in the burning car. Whileothers looked on in horror, Andersen jumped out of his vehicle and crawled into the car through the shadowed rear window to try to free the infant. Seconds later, thecar was enclosed in flames. But to everyone’s amazement, Andersen was able to pull the baby to safety. While the baby was all right, Andersen was seriously injured.Two days later he died. But his heroic act was published widely in the media. His son was soon adopted by relatives. The most remarkable part of the story unfoldedonly last week. Karen and her boyfriend Michael were looking through some old boxes when they came across some old newspaper clippings. “This is me when I was a newborn baby. I was rescued from a burning car. But my mother died in the accident,” explained Karen. Although Michael knew Karen’s mother had died years earlier, henever fully understood the circumstances until he skimmed over the newspaper article. To Karen’s surprise, Michael was absorbed in the details of the accident. And hebegan to cry uncontrollably. Then he revealed that the man that pulled Karen from the flames was the father he never knew. The two embraced and shed many tears,recounting stories told to them about their parents.29 What happened twenty-five years ago?30 What does the speaker say about Michael’s father?31 Why did Michael cry uncontrollably when he skimmed over the newspaper article?P3Americans suffer from an overdose of work. Regardless of who they are or what they do. Americans spend more time at work than that any time since World War II. In1950, the US had fewer working hours than any other industrialized country. Today, it exceeds every country but Japan where industrialized employees load 2155 hours ayear compared with 1951 in the US and 1603 in the former West Germany. Between 1969 and 1989, employed Americans add an average of 138 hours to their yearly workschedules. The workweek has remained above 40 hours. But people are working more weeks each year. Specifically pay time off holidays, vacations, sick leave shrank by50% in the 1980s. As corporations have experienced stiff competitions and slow in growth of productivity, they have pressed employees to work longer. Cost-cuttinglay-offs in the 1980s reduce the professional and managerial runs, leaving fewer people to get the job done. In lower paid occupations where wages have been reduced,workers have added hours in overtime or extra jobs to preserve their living standards. The government estimates that more than 7 million people hold a second job. Forthe first time, large numbers of people say they want to cut back on working hours even it means earning less money. But most employers are unwilling to let them doso. The government which has stepped back from its traditional role as a regulator of work time should take steps to make shorter hours possible.Question 32-35 are ba sed on the passage you’ve just heard32. In which country do industrial employees work the longest hours?33. How do employed Americans manage to work more hours?34. Why do corporations press their employees to work longer hours according to the speaker?35. What does the speaker say many Americans prefer to do?Compound dictation Nursing, as a typically female profession, must deal constantly with the false impression that nurses are there to wait on the physician. As nurses, we are licensed toprovide nursing care only. We do not have any legal or moral obligation to any physician. We provide health teaching, assess physical as well as emotional problems,coordinate patient related services, and make all our nursing decisions based upon what is best or suitable for the patient. If in any circumstance we feel that aphysician's order is inappropriate or unsafe, we have a legal responsibility to question that order, or refuse to carry it out. Nursing is not a nine-to-five job withevery weekend off. All nurses are aware of that before they enter the profession. The emotional and physical stress, however, that occurs due to odd working hours is aprime reason for a large of the career dissatisfaction. It is sometimes required that we work overtime,and that we change shifts four or five times a month. Thatdisturbs our personal lives, destruct our sleeping and eating habits, and isolates us from everything except job related friends and activities. The quality of nursingcare is being affected dramatically by these situations. Most hospitals are now staffed by new graduates, as experienced nurses finally give up trying to change thesystem. Consumers of medically related services have evidently not been affected enough yet to demand changes in our medical system. But if trends continue aspredicted, they will find that most critical hospital care will be provided by new, inexperienced, and sometimes inadequately trained nurses.2007年12月六级英语考试原文短对话11 M：The biological project is now in trouble, you know,my colleague and I have completely different ideas about how to proceed.W：Why don’t you compromise?

If their proposal becomes a reality, it will revolutionize train travel in Europe. Journeys between major cities will take halfthe time they take today. Brussels will be only one and a half hours from Paris. The quickest way to get from Paris to Frankfurt, from Barcelona to Madrid will be bytrain, not plane. When the network is complete, it will integrate three types of railway line: totally new high speed lines with trains operating at speeds of 300kilometers per hour, upgraded lines which allow for speeds up to 200 to 225 kilometers per hour,and existing lines for local connections and distribution of freight.If businesspeople can choose between a three-hour train journey from city-center to city-center and a one-hour flight, they’ll choose the train,says an executivetravel consultant. They won’t go by plane any more. If you calculate flight time, check-inand travel to-and-from the airport, you’ll find almost no difference. Andif your plane arrives late due to bad weather or air traffic jams or strikes, then the train passengers will arrive at their destination first. Since France introducedthe first 260-kilometer-per-hour high speed train service between Parisand Lyons in 1981, the trains have achieved higher and higher speeds. On many routes, airlineshave lost up to 90% of their passengers to high speed trains. If people accept the Community of European Railways’ plan, the 21 century will be the new age of thetrain.26. What is the proposal presented by the Community of European Railways? 27. What will happen when the proposal becomes a reality?28. Why will business people prefer a three-hour train journey to a one-hour flight?29. When did France introduce the first high speed train service?Passage 2Western doctors are beginning to understand what traditional healers have always known that the body and the mind are inseparable. Until recently, modern urbanphysicians heal the body, psychiatrist the mind, and priests the soul. However, the medical world is now paying more attention to holistic medicine which is anapproach based on the belief that people state of mind can make them sick or speed their recovery from sickness. Several study show that the effectiveness of a certaindrug often depends on the patient’s expectat ions of it. For example, in one recent study, psychiatrist and a major hospital tried to see how patients could be madecalm. They divided them into two groups. One group was given a drug while the other group received a harmless substance instead of medicine without their knowledge.Surprisingly, more patients in the second group showed the desired effect than those in the first group. In study after study, there’s a positive reaction in almostone-third of the patients taking harmless substances. How was this possible? How can such a substance have an effect on the body? Evidence from a 1997 study at theUniversity of California shows that several patients who received such substances were able to produce their own natural drug, that is, as they took thesubstancetheir brains released natural chemicals that act like a drug. Scientists theorized that the amount of these chemicals released by a person’s brain quite possiblyindicates how much faith the person has in his or her doctor.Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you’ve just heard:30. According to the speaker, what are western doctors beginning to understand?31. What does the recent study at a major hospital seem to prove?32. What evidence does the 1997 study at the University of California produce?Passage 3So we’ve already talked a bit about the growth of extreme sports like rock-climbing. As psychologists, we need to ask ourselves: Why is this person doing this? Why dopeople take these risks and put themselves in danger w hen they don’t have to? One common trait among risk-takers is that they enjoy strong feelings or sensations. Wecall this trait sensation-seeking. A sensation-seeker is someone who’s always looking for new sensations. What else do we know about sensation-seekers? Well, as Isaid, sensation-seekers like strong emotions. You can see this trait in many parts of a person’s life, not just in extreme sports. For example, many sensation-seekersenjoy hard rock music. They like the loud sound and strong emotion of the songs. Similarly, sensation-seekers enjoy frightening horror movies. They like the feeling ofbeing scared and horrified while watching the movie. This feeling is even stronger for extreme sports where the person faces real danger. Sensation-seekers feel the danger is very exciting. In addition, sensation-seekers like new experiences that force them to push their personal limits. For them, repeating the same thingseveryday is boring. Many sensation-seekers choose jobs that involve risk, such as starting a new business or being an emergency room doctor. These jobs are differenteveryday, so th ey never know what will happen. That’s why many sensation-seekers also like extreme sports. When you do rock-climbing, you never know what will happen.The activity is always new and different.Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you’ve just heard:33. According to the speaker, what is a common trait among risk-takers?34. What do sensation-seekers find boring?35. What is the speaker’s profession?2007年12月六级英语考试复合式听写原文If you are like most people, you’ve indulged in fake listening many times. You go to history class, sit in the 3rd row, and look squarely at the instructor as shespeaks. But your mind is far away, floating i n the clouds of pleasant daydreams. Occasionally you come back to earth. The instructor writes an important term on thechalkboard, and you dutifully copy it in your notebook. Every once in a while the instructor makes a witty remark, causing others in the class to laugh. You smilepolitely, pretending that you’ve heard the remark and found it mildly humorous. You have a vague sense of guilt that you aren’t paying close attention. But you tellyourself that any material you miss can be picked up from a friend’s notes. Besides, the instructor’s talkingabout road construction in ancient Rome, and nothingcould be more boring. So back you go into your private little world, only later do you realize you’ve missed important information for a test. Fake listening may beeasily exposed, since many speakers are sensitive to facial cuesand can tell if you’re merely pretending to listen. Your blank expression, and the faraway look inyour eyes are the cues that betray you inattentiveness. Even if you are not exposed there’s another reason to avoid fakery. It’s easy for this behavior to become ahabit. For some people, the habit is so deeply rooted that they automatically start daydreaming when a speaker begins talking on something complex or uninteresting. Asa result, they miss lots of valuable information2008年6月英语六级听力原文Section A11. M: Good news, I’m not going to have surgery after all.

W: Hello, Professor White, I got my grade in the mail this morning, but I think there might be a mistake in my mark.M: Yeah, I’ve got several calls just like yours.

英语六级听力技巧总结
英语六级听力技巧总结英语六级听力技巧总结篇1听力做题技巧：做完快速阅读离听力开头还有五分钟，在这五分钟内老师会把你的答题卡1收上去，然后我们要做的就是扫瞄听力的全部选项。
这段时间是充分发挥你记忆力的时候，记住的选项越多越好。
加了长对话和复合式听写之后听力时间变长了，很简单让人觉得疲乏，所以听力的时候肯定要保持最正确状态。
一、卷子发下来后快速的扫瞄一遍，包括题干和答案。
这样会大大提高你对听力的理解——知道它是讲什么内容，也许是怎么回事。
这个时候不要去写考号什么的。
尽管留到交卷时写好了。
二、没听懂的题目，就放弃它，千万不要听下道题的时候还在想上道题。
这样会引起头脑里面的混乱。
假如引起连锁反应那你的复习就全白费了。
三、信任第一感觉，听力部分不是特别确凿的感觉的话不要改动开头的答案。
人的脑袋有时候会混淆的。
因此许多状况下不是你选错了，而是改错了。
因此轻易别选，但是选了之后轻易别改。
四、赴考之前先检查耳机工作否。
试音的时候把音量什么的调好就行了。
其它的时间用来看卷子内容。
五、复合式听写的句子部分是得分大户，也是丢分大户，肯定留意听懂再写，以句子为单位而不是以单词为单位去写。
写出主要意思即可。
不会写的单词要用同义词来替换。
英语六级听力考试开头时做好基础工作之外，还需要留意几点：第一，切记英语六级听力重点是选项。
首先，在做题目之前，你要了解的是选项，通过选项就会发觉这道题的重点在什么地方。
你需要关注的是选项的不同点，而且看选项的时候，要千万记住：横着看选项永久没有竖着看选项快！而且千万不要强迫自己去翻译选项的汉语意思。
我们都有要把这个选项翻译出来的想法，这时候你会发觉，翻译完一道题目后，就把全部的看试卷的时间全部用光了。
这种状况怎么办？要留意，看一个选项或一个题目的时候，竖着看，首先是主语，然后关注它的谓语就可以了。
许多选项的不同点就是从谓语差异开头的。
看完好道题后，你就会知道这道题也许在说什么，于是就会有的放矢一些。

Hundreds of educators from across the country were meeting to discuss the need for greater cultural diversity in the school curriculum. I took a taxi to my hotel. On the way, my driver and I chatted about the whether and the tourists. The driver was a White man in forties. ‘How long have you been in this country?’ he asked. ‘All my life!’ I replied, ‘I was born in the United States.’ With strong southern accent, he remarked, ‘I was wondering because your English is excellent.’ Then I explained as I had done many times before, ‘My grandfather came here from China in the 1880s. My family has been here in America for ever a hundred years.’ He glanced at me in the mirror. Somehow, I didn’t look American to him. My appearance looked foreign. Questions liked the one my taxi driver asked make me feel uncomfortable. But I can understand why he could not see me as an American. He had a narrow but widely shared sense of the past: a history that has viewed Americans as descendants of Europeans. Race has functioned as something necessary to the construction of American character and quality in the creation of our national identity—American has been defined as ‘white’. But American has been racially diverse since our very beginning on the Virginia shore, where the first group of Englishmen and Africans arrived in the 17th century. And this reality is increasingly become visible everywhere.11.What was the theme of the conference the speaker was to attend?12.Why did the taxi driver ask the speaker how long he has been in the US?13.What message did the speaker wish to convey?Passage TwoLaws have been written to govern the use of American National Flag, and to ensure proper respect for the flag. Custom has also governed the common practice in regard to its use. All the armed services have precise regulations on how to display the national flag. This may vary somewhat from the general rules. The national flag should be raised and lowered by hand. Do not raise the flag while it is folded. Unfold the flag first, and then hoist it quickly to the top of the flagpole. Lower it slowly and with dignity. Place no objects on or over the flag. Do not use the flag as part of a costume or athletic uniform. Do not print it upon cushions, handkerchiefs, paper napkins or boxes. A federal law provides that the trademark cannot be registered if it comprises the flag, or badgers of the US, When the flag is used to unveil a statue or monument, it shouldn’t serve as a covering of the object to be unveiled. If it is displayed on such occasions, do not allow the flag to fall to the ground, but let it be carried high up in the air to form a feature of the ceremony. Take every precaution to prevent the flag from soiled. It should not be allowed to touch the ground or floor, nor to brush against objects.14.How do Americans ensure proper respect for the national flag?15.What is the regulation regarding the raising of the American National Flag?16. How should the American National Flag be displayed at an unveiling ceremony?17.What do we learn about the use of the American National Flag?Passage ThreeIn some large American city schools, as many as 20-40% of the students are absent each day. There are two major reasons for such absences: one is sickness, and the other is truancy. That is staying away from school without permission. Since school officials can’t do much about the illness, they are concentrating on reducing the number of truancy. One of the most promising schemes has been tried in Florida. The pupils there with good attendance have been given free hamburgers, toys and T-shirts. Classes are told if they show improved rates of attendance, they can win additional gifts. At the same time, teachers are encouraged to inspire their students to come to school regularly. When those teachers are successful, they are also rewarded. “we’ve been punishing truancy for years, but that hasn’t brought them back to school,” One school principal sa id. Now we are trying the positive approach. Not only do you learn by showing up every day, but you earn. In San Francisco, the board of education has had a somewhat similar idea. Schools that show a decrease in deliberate destruction of property can receive the amount of money that would be spent on repairs and replacements. For example, 12,000 dollars had been set aside for a school’s property damages every year. Since repair expenses of damaged property required only 4,000 dollars, the remaining 8,000 do llars was turned over to the student activity fund. “Our democracy operates on hope and encouragement,” said the school board member. “Why not provide some positive goals for students and teachers to aim at?”18 which reason for students’ absences is discussed in great detail?19 who will benefit from the scheme being tried in Florida?20 what measure has been taken in San Francisco to reduce the destruction of school property?［答案］1-10DABCA ADCAB11-20CDAAB DCCDB2006年6月英语六级真题听力原文Section A1. M: Mary, could you please tell Thomas to contact me?

M: Susan, I am going to change the light bulb above the dining room table. Will you hold the ladder for me?W: No problem. But be careful while you're up there.Q: What does the man want the woman to do?3. W: It's freezing cold. Let me make some coffee to warm us up. Do you want a piece of pie as well?M: Coffee sounds great. But I'm going to have dinner with some friends in a while, so I'd better skip the pie.Q: What does the man mean?4. W: How come Jim lost his job?M: I didn't say he had lost it. All I said was if he didn't get out and start selling a few cars instead of idling around all day, he might find himself looking for a new job.Q: What does the man say about Jim?5. M: Hello, Mary. This is Paul at the bank. Is Tony home?W: Not yet. Paul. I don't think you can reach him at the office now, either. He phoned me five minutes ago to say he was stopping for a hair-cut on his way home.Q: Who do you think the woman probably is?6. W: Oh! Boy! I don't understand how you got a ticket today. I always thought you were slow even driving on the less crowded fast lane.M: I'm usually careful. But this time I thought I could get through the intersection before the light turned.Q: What do we learn about the man?7. W: Your dog certainly seems to know you are his master. Did you have to punish him very often when you trained him?M: I found it's much better to praise him when he obeys and not to be so fussy when he makes mistakes.Q: What does the man say about training dogs?8. M: I am afraid there won't be time to do another tooth today. Make sure you don't eat anything like stakes for the next few hours, and we'll fill the other cavity tomorrow.W: All right. Actually, I must hurry to the library to return some books.Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place?9. W: I am worried about Jenny going to college. College students are so wild nowadays.M: Actually, only a few are like that. Most students are too busy studying to have time to cause trouble.Q: What does the man imply?10. W: You didn't seem to be terribly enthusiastic about the performance.M: You must be kidding. I couldn't have clapped any harder. My hands are still hurting.Q: What does the man think of the performance?Section BPassage 1Born and raised in central Ohio, I'm a country girl through and through. I'm currently studying to become a physical therapist, a career path that marks a great achievement for me. At Ohio State University, admission into the physical therapy program is intensely competitive. I made it pass the first cut the first year I applied, but was turned down for admission. I was crushed, because for years I have been determined to become a physical therapist. I received advice from friends and relatives about changing my major and finding another course for my life. I just couldn't do it. I knew I could not be as happy in another profession. So I stilled myself, began to work seriously for another year and reapplied. Happily I received notice of my admission. Later, I found out that less than 15% of the applicant had been offered positions that year. Now in the first two years of professional training, I couldn't be happier with my decision not to give up on my dream. My father toldme that if I wanted it badly enough, I would get in. Well, Daddy, I wanted it. So there. After graduation, I would like to travel to another country, possibly a Latin American country and work in a children's hospital for a year or two. So many of the children there are physically handicapped but most hospitals don't have the funding to hire trained staff to care for them properly. I would like to change that somehow.11. What is the speaker's field of study?12. According to the speaker, what contributed to her admission to Ohio State University?13. Why does the speaker want to go to a Latin American country?Passage 2Gabriela Mistral was once an ordinary teacher in a small village school in Northern Chile. Towering mountains separate her village from the world outside. Gabriela Mistral was only fifteen when she began teaching, but she was a good teacher. She helped the minds of her students' scale the mountain walls and reached out to the world beyond. For eighteen years, Gabriela devoted her life to the poor farm children of Chile's Northern valleys. During part of this time, she was director of schools in all of Chile. Before long, many countries recognized her as a great friend of children and the leader in education. In 1922, she was invited to Mexico to help organize the rural school system. Two years later, Gabriela Mistral came to the United States where she served as a visiting professor in several colleges. In New York City, a group of teachers helped to finance the publication of her first book of poetry. Some of her books have been translated into six different languages. She gave the income from some of her books to help poor and neglected children. Beginning in the 1920's, her interests reached out to broader fields. Statesmen asked her advice on international problems. She tried to break through the national barriers that hindered the exchange of ideas among the Spanish speaking peoples of South America. She tried to develop a better understanding between the United States and countries of Latin America. In 1945, she gained worldwide recognition by winning the Nobel Prize in literature, the first Southern American to win the prize.14. Where did Gabriela Mistral start her teaching career?15. How did Gabriela Mistral help the poor children of her hometown?16. Why did many countries think highly of Gabriela Mistral?17. How did Gabriela Mistral become famous all over the world?Passage 3Over time animals have developed many ways to stay away from predators. A predator is an animal that hunts and eats other animals. Hiding is one of the best ways to stay alive. Some animals hide by looking like the places where they live. To see how this works, let's look at the sea dragon. It is a master of disguise. The sea dragon is covered with skin that looks like leaves. The skin helps the dragon look like a piece of seaweed. A hungry meat eater would stay away from anything that looks like seaweed. Other animals stay safe by showing their colors. They want other animals to see them. Scientists call these bright colors--warning colors. You have probably seen animals that have warning colors. Some grasshoppers show off their own bright colors. Those colors don't just look attractive; they tell their enemies to stay away. Of course, hungry predators sometimes ignore the warning. They still go after the grasshopper. If that happens, the grasshopper has a backup defense. Itmakes lots of foam. The foam tastes so bad that the predator won't do it again. Color doesn't offer enough protection for some other animals. They have different defenses that help them survive in the wild. Many fish live in groups or schools. That's because there is safety in numbers. At the first sign of trouble, schooling fish swim as close together as they can get. Then the school of fish makes lots of twists and turns. All that movement makes it hard for predators to see individuals in a large group.18. What is the speaker mainly talking about?19. What protects the sea dragon from the meat eater's attack?20. According to the passage, why do many fish stay in groups?2006年12月英语六级真题听力原文1.W: Do you know why Mary has such a long face today?M: I don’t have the foggiest idea!

Why do you still look so worried?M: I don’t know. It wasn’t that the questions were too hard, or they were too many of them.

I won’t be able to put you on another one until tomorrow morning.W: Well, I certainly hope the airline’s going to put me up somewhere tonight.Q: What did the woman request the airline do?Passage oneYou have probably heard of the DuPont company, which was founded by a family of the same name. But do you know about the museum that one of the family members began? Henry Francis Du Pont was an heir to Delaware’s DuPont Company fortune. He was one of the first serious collectors of American decorative art objects: furniture, textiles, paintings and other objects made in United States between 1640 and 1840. American furniture and household objects had been considered inferior to those from Europe. But Du Pont helped develope a new appreciation for American decorative arts. He created a legendary show plays for these objects on his family estate just outside Wilmington, Delaware. In 1951, it was open to the public as the Henry Francis Du Pont Winterthur Museum. The museum assembled objects from Du Pont’s collection into 175 period rooms, each with examples of American antiques and decorative arts that followed a certain theme of period in early American history. For example, the Du Pont dining room has furniture dating from the late 18th and early 19th centuries. And because this was the time when the United States became a new nation, there’s a patriotic theme in the room. Another example is the Chinese parlor, which has furnishings that would reflect American’s fascination with Asian culture during the 18th century. In these period rooms, Du Pont believed he could tell the story of the early United States through furniture and other decorative arts.11. What is Henry Francis Du Pont noted for?12. What was the purpose of Du Pont’s efforts?13. How were the objects on display arranged?Passage twoAccording to David Grattle, a British language expert, the idea that English will become the world language is outdated. And people are more likely to switch between two or more languages for routine communication in the future. The share of the world’s population that speaks English as a native language is falling. Instead, English will play a growing role as a second language. A population speaking more than one language is already the case in much of the world and is becoming more common in the United States. Indeed, the census bureau reported last year that nearly one American in five speaks a language other than English at home, with Spanish taking the lead, followed by Chinese. Grattle works for British consulting and publishing business. He anticipates a world with the share of people who are native English speakers slips from 9% in the mid 1990s to 5% in 2050. Grattle says, “Upuntil 1995, English was the second most common native tongue in the world, trailing only Chinese. By 2050, Chinese will continue its predominance with Hindi Woodoo of India and Arabic climbing past English and Spanish nea rly equal to it.” In contrast, an American language expert, David Harrison noted that the global share of English is much larger if you count second language speakers, and will continue to rise even as the proportion of native speakers declines. Harrison disputed listing Arabic in top three languages because varieties of Arabic spoken in such countries as Egypt and Morocco are mutually incomprehensible.14. What does David Grattle say about the use of languages for daily communication in the future?15. Why doesn’t David Harrison include Arabic as one of the top three languages?16. What can we infer from the passage?Passage threeThere are about 1 million blind people in the United States. The largest and most influential organization of blind people in this country is the National Federation of the Blind. Its officials say the nation doesn’t have any colleges or universities that serve only blind students. They say the reason for this is that blind people must learn to live among people who can see. American colleges and universities do accept blind and visually impaired students, and they provide services to help these students succeed. For example, colleges find people who write down what the professor say in class and they provide technology that can help blind students with their work. However, experts say colleges can best help blind students by making it clear that the students should learn to help themselves. One blind American student named T recently made news because he graduated from medical school from the University of Wisconsin. He said technology was one of the reasons he succeeded. He used a computer that read into his earphone what he was typing. He also used a small printer that permitted him to write notes about his patients in the hospital. He did his undergraduate work at the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana. National Federation of the Blind officials say blind students from other nations do come to the United States to attend college. Some can even get financial aid. The Federation awards about 30 scholarships each year that have no citizenship requirement.17. According to officials of the National Federation of the Blind, why are there no special colleges for blind students only?18. According to experts how can colleges best help blind students?19. What is one of the reasons given by T as a blind student for his success?20. What can blind students from overseas do to study in America according to the National Federation of the Blind?2007年6月英语六级真题听力原文11、W: Jim, you are on the net again! We are going to get off.

So what did you do?W: Well, I didn’t drink an alcohol or coffee, and I didn’t eat any meat or rich food. I drink a lot of water, and fresh juice, and I ate the noodles on the well-being menu.

W: I have never seen you[01:41.04]have such confidence before in the exam![01:43.67]M: It's more than confidence![01:45.53]Right now I feel that if I get less than an A,[01:48.81]it will be the fault of the exam itself.[01:51.90]Q: What does the man mean?[02:08.57]13. W: Just look at this newspaper![02:12.95]Nothing but murder, death and war![02:16.34]Do you still believe people are basically good?[02:19.73]M: Of course, I do! But newspapers[02:22.68]hardly ever report stories about peace and generosity.[02:26.73]They are not news![02:28.80]Q: What do we learn from the conversation?[02:45.55]14. M: Tom must be joking when he said[02:50.59]he plans to sell his shop and go to medical school.[02:54.09]W: You are quite right! He's just kidding![02:56.93]He's also told me time and time again[03:00.21]he wished to study for some profession[03:02.83]instead of going into business.[03:05.13]Q: What will Tom probably do according to the conversation?[03:22.51]15. W: I hear your boss has a real good impression of you,[03:29.29]and he is thinking about giving you two more days off each month. [03:33.56]M: I hope not. I'd rather get more work hours ,[03:36.83]so I can get enough bucks to help out my two kids at college. [03:41.32]Q: What does the man truly want?[03:58.33]16. M: I heard you took a trip to Mexico last month.[04:04.01]How did you like it?[04:05.55]W: Oh, I got sick and tired of the hotels[04:08.83]and hotel food! So now I understand the thing:[04:13.31]East, west, home's best![04:17.47]Q: What does the woman mean?[04:32.66]17. W: I'm worried about Anna.[04:37.80]She's really been depressed lately.[04:40.53]All she does is staying in her room all day.[04:43.70]M: That sounds serious![04:45.78]She'd better see a psychiatrist at the counseling center.[04:50.15]Q: What does the man suggest Anna do?[05:06.52]18. M: I could hardly recognize[05:11.66]Sam after he got that new job![05:13.96]He's always in a suit and tie now.[05:16.48]W: Yeah. He was never liked that in college.[05:19.97]Back then, he went around in old T-shirts and jeans.[05:24.46]Q: What do the speakers say about Sam?[05:42.63]Now you will hear the two long conversations.[05:46.45]Conversation One[05:48.53]M: Hi, Ann! Welcome back! How was your trip to the States? [05:54.11]W: Very busy. I had a lot of meetings,[05:58.05]so, of course, I didn't have much time to see New York.[06:02.41]M: What a pity! Actually, I have a trip there myself next week. [06:06.69]W: Do you? Then take my advice, do the well-being[06:11.39]in the air program. It really works.[06:14.45]M: Oh, I read about that in a magazine.[06:16.86]You say it works?[06:18.05]W: Yes, I did the program on the flight to the States,[06:21.45]and when I arrived in New York,[06:24.07]I didn't have any problem, no jet lag at all.[06:28.12]On the way back, I didn't do it, and I felt terrible.[06:33.04]M: You're joking![06:34.13]W: Not at all, it really made a lot of difference.[06:37.85]M: En. So what did you do?[06:40.70]W: Well, I didn't drink any alcohol or coffee,[06:44.63]and I didn't eat any meat or rich food.[06:47.91]I drink a lot of water, and free juice,[06:51.19]and I ate the meals on the well-being menu.[06:54.58]They're lighter. They have fish, vegetables, and noodles, [06:59.39]for example, and I did some of the exercises in the program. [07:03.77]M: Exercises? On a plane?[07:06.39]W: Yes. I didn't do many, of course,[07:09.67]there isn't much space on a plane.[07:12.19]M: How many passengers do the exercises?[07:14.93]W: Not many.[07:16.57]M: Then how much champagne did they drink?[07:19.08]W: A lot! It was more popular than mineral water.[07:22.69]M: So, basically, it's a choice.[07:24.77]Mineral water and exercises, or champagne and jet lag.[07:28.92]W: That's right! It's a difficult choice.[07:33.73]Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation[07:38.55]you have just heard.[07:40.41]19. Why did the woman go to New York?[07:59.16]20. What does the woman say about the well-being[08:03.75]in the air program?[08:19.58]21. What did the woman do to follow the well-being menu? [08:39.66]22. What did the woman say about other passengers?[08:59.60]Conversation Two[09:02.30]W: Morning. Can I help you?[09:05.48]M: Well, I' m not really sure.[09:07.77]I' m just looking.[09:08.98]W: I see. Well, there's plenty to look at it again this year. [09:13.24]I'm sure you have to walk miles to see each stand. [09:16.85]M: That's true.[09:17.72]W: Er..., would you like a coffee?[09:19.91]Come and sit down for a minute, no obligation. [09:22.75]M: Well, that's very kind of you, but…[09:25.27]W: Now, please. Is this the first year[09:28.22]you've been to the fair, Mr...[09:30.08]M: Yes, Johnson, James Johnson.[09:32.71]W: My name's Susan Carter.[09:34.67]Are you looking for anything in particular,[09:37.19]or are you just interested in computers in general? [09:40.25]M: Well, actually, I have some specific jobs in mind. [09:43.97]I own a small company, we've grown quite dramatically [09:47.80]over the past 12 months,[09:49.00]and we really need some technological help to [09:51.73]enable us to keep on top of everything.[09:54.25]W: What's your line of business, Mr. Johnson?[09:57.20]M: We're a training consultancy.[09:59.39]W: I see. And what do you need “to keep on top”? [10:03.87]M: The first thing is correspondence.[10:06.28]We have a lot of standard letters and forms.[10:08.90]So I suppose we need some kind of word processor. [10:12.07]W: Right. Well, that's no problem.[10:15.36]But it may be possible for you to get a system[10:18.53]that does a lot of other things[10:20.28]in addition to word processing.[10:22.14]What might suit you is the MR5000.[10:26.73]That's it over there! It's IBM compatible.[10:30.12]M: What about the price?[10:32.62]W: Well, the MR5000 costs 1 050 pounds.[10:38.64]Software comes free with the hardware.[10:41.48]M: Well, I'll think about it. Thank you.[10:45.20]W: Here's my card. Please feel free to contact me. [10:49.79]Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation [10:54.60]you have just heard.[10:57.12]23. Where did the conversation take place?[11:16.64]24. What are the speakers talking about?[11:35.72]25. What is the man's line of business?[11:54.49]Section B[11:56.67]Directions: In this section,[12:01.05]you will hear 3 short passages.[12:04.22]At the end of each passage,[12:05.97]you will hear some questions.[12:07.94]Both the passage and the questions[12:10.13]will be spoken only once.[12:12.64]After you hear a question,[12:14.39]you must choose the best answer from the four choices [12:18.00]marked A), B), C) and D).[12:22.37]Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 [12:26.75]with a single line through the centre.[12:29.81]Passage One[12:32.22]The new year always brings with the cultural tradition [12:36.92]of new possibilities.[12:38.89]We see it as a chance for renewal.[12:41.73]We begin to dream of new possible selves.[12:45.23]We design our ideal self or an image[12:49.06]that is quite different from what we are now.[12:51.79]For some of us, we roll at dreamy film in our heads[12:56.17]just because it's the beginning of a new year.[12:58.79]But we aren't serious about making changes.[13:02.51]We just make some half-hearted resolution[13:05.35]and it evaporates after a week or two.[13:08.53]The experience makes us feel less successful[13:12.24]and leads us to discount our ability[13:15.08]to change in the future. It's not the changes impossible [13:19.90]but that it won't last unless our resolutions[13:23.29]are supported with plans for implementation.[13:26.57]We have to make our intentions manageable[13:29.52]by detailing the specific steps[13:32.04]that will carry us to our goal.[13:34.33]Say your goal is to lose weight by dieting[13:38.38]and cutting off sweets.[13:40.56]But one night you just have to have a cookie.[13:44.06]And you know there's a bag of your favorites[13:46.91]in the cupboard. You want one, you eat two,[13:51.39]you check the bag and find out[13:53.91]you've just shot 132 calories. You say to yourself,[13:59.16]“What the hell!” and polish off the whole bag.[14:02.11]Then you begin to draw all kinds of[14:05.61]unpleasant conclusions about yourself.[14:09.00]To protect your sense of self,[14:11.07]you begin to discount the goal. You may think--[14:15.24]"Well, dieting wasn't that important to me[14:18.40]and I won't make it anyhow.”[14:20.92]So you abandon the goal and return to your bad habits. [14:26.72]Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage[14:31.42]you have just heard.[14:33.93]26. What do people usually wish to do[14:39.29]at the beginning of a new year?[14:54.88]27. How can people turn their new year's resolutions[15:00.56]into reality?[15:15.43]28. Why does the speaker mention[15:20.03]the example of sweets and cookies?[15:37.66]Passage Two[15:39.85]25 years ago, Ray Anderson,[15:43.90]a single parent with a one-year-old son[15:46.19]witnessed a terrible accident[15:48.60]which took place when the driver of a truck[15:51.22]ran a red light and collided with the car of Sandra Drinkins. [15:56.14]The impact of the collision killed Sandra instantly.[15:59.54]But her three-month-old daughter[16:01.83]was left trapped in the burning car.[16:03.91]While others looked on in horror,[16:06.42]Andersen jumped out of his vehicle[16:08.83]and crawled into the car through the shadowed rear window [16:12.22]to try to free the infant. Seconds later,[16:16.49]the car was enclosed in flames.[16:19.66]But to everyone's amazement,[16:22.07]Andersen was able to pull the baby to safety.[16:25.67]While the baby was all right, Andersen[16:28.41]was seriously injured. Two days later he died.[16:33.55]But his heroic act was published widely in the media. [16:37.59]His son was soon adopted by relatives.[16:40.88]The most remarkable part of the story unfolded only last week. [16:46.02]Karen and her boyfriend Michael were looking[16:49.40]through some old boxes[16:50.93]When they came across some old newspaper clippings. [16:54.54]“This is me when I was a new born baby.[16:57.61]I was rescued from a burning car.[16:59.79]But my mother died in the accident,”explained Karen.[17:03.62]Although Michael knew Karen's mother[17:05.81]had died years earlier,[17:07.67]he never fully understood the circumstances[17:10.29]until he skimmed over the newspaper article.[17:13.68]To Karen's surprise,[17:15.87]Michael was absorbed in the details of the accident.[17:18.82]And he began to cry uncontrollably.[17:22.21]Then he revealed that the man that pulled Karen[17:25.82]from the flames was the father he never knew.[17:29.54]The two embraced and shed many tears,[17:32.49]recounting stories told to them about their parents.[17:37.41]Questions29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.[17:43.65]29. What happened twenty-five years ago?[18:01.79]30. What does the speaker say about Michael's father?[18:20.82]31. Why did Michael cry uncontrollably[18:25.84]when he skimmed over the newspaper article?[18:42.66]Passage Three[18:45.71]Americans suffer from an overdose of work.[18:49.87]Regardless of who they are or what they do.[18:53.15]Americans spend more time at work[18:55.34]than that any time since World War II.[18:58.41]In 1950,the US had fewer working hours[19:03.16]than any other industrialized country.[19:06.12]Today, it exceeds every country but Japan[19:09.07]where industrial employees load 2155 hours a year[19:15.41]compared with 1951 in the US[19:19.79]and 1603 in the former West Germany.[19:24.93]Between 1969 and 1989, employed Americans[19:30.29]add an average of 138 hours to their yearly work schedules.[19:35.97]The workweek has remained above 40 hours.[19:39.37]But people are working more weeks each year.[19:43.09]Specifically pay time off holidays, vacations,[19:48.33]sick leave shrank by 50% in the 1980s.[19:53.47]As corporations have experienced stiff competitions[19:57.59]and slow in growth of productivity,[19:59.77]they have pressed employees to work longer.[20:03.60]Cost-cutting lay-offs in the 1980s[20:06.88]reduce the professional and managerial runs,[20:10.16]leaving fewer people to get the job done.[20:13.12]In lower paid occupations[20:16.07]where wages have been reduced,[20:18.26]workers have added hours in overtime[20:20.99]or extra jobs to preserve their living standard.[20:24.38]The government estimates that more than 7 million people hold a second job. [20:29.85]For the first time,[20:32.25]large numbers of people say they want to cut back[20:34.87]on working hours even it means earning less money.[20:38.81]But most employers are unwilling to let them do so.[20:42.96]The government which has stepped back from its traditional role[20:47.01]as a regulator of work time[20:49.52]should take steps to make shorter hours possible.[20:53.96]Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.[21:00.53]32. In which country do industrial employees[21:06.32]work the longest hours?[21:22.23]33. How do employed Americans manage to work more hours?[21:42.96]34. Why do corporations press their employees[21:48.43]to work longer hours according to the speaker?[22:05.90]35. What does the speaker[22:09.07]say many Americans prefer to do?[22:25.20]Section C[22:27.72]Directions: In this section,[22:30.67]you will hear a passage three times.[22:33.51]When the passage is read for the first time,[22:36.36]you should listen carefully for its general idea.[22:39.42]When the passage is read for the second time,[22:42.48]you are required to fill in the blanks numbered[22:45.32]from 36 to 43 with the exact words[22:49.04]you have just heard. For blanks numbered[22:52.43]from 44 to 46 you are required[22:55.38]to fill in the missing information.[22:58.23]For these blanks, you can either use the exact words [23:01.94]you have just heard or write down the main points[23:05.01]in your own words. Finally, when the passage[23:08.83]is read for the third time, you should check[23:11.56]what you have written.[23:13.81]Now listen to the passage.[23:16.87]Nursing, as a typically female profession,[23:21.14]must deal constantly with the false impression[23:23.98]that nurses are there to wait on the physician.[23:27.48]As nurses, we are licensed to provide nursing care only. [23:32.74]We do not have any legal[23:34.26]or moral obligation to any physician.[23:37.76]We provide health teaching, assess physical[23:41.26]as well as emotional problems,[23:43.88]coordinate patient-related services,[23:46.29]and make all of our nursing decisions based upon[23:49.13]what is best or suitable for the patient.[23:52.41]If, in any circumstance,[23:54.93]we feel that a physician's order[23:56.90]is inappropriate or unsafe,[23:59.96]we have a legal responsibility to question[24:02.59]that order or refuse to carry it out.[24:06.31]Nursing is not a nine-to-five job with every weekend off. [24:11.01]All nurses are aware of that before they enter the profession. [24:15.16]The emotional and physical stress, however,[24:18.00]that occurs due to odd working hours[24:20.41]is a prime reason for a lot of the career dissatisfaction. [24:25.33]It is sometimes required that we work overtime,[24:28.94]and that we change shifts four or five times a month. [24:33.42]That disturbs our personal lives,[24:36.16]disrupts our sleeping and eating habits,[24:39.01]and isolates us from everything[24:41.52]except job-related friends and activities.[24:45.13]The quality of nursing care[24:46.99]is being affected dramatically by these situations.[24:50.82]Most hospitals are now staffed by new graduates,[24:54.53]as experienced nurses[24:56.72]finally give up trying to change the system.[25:00.55]Consumers of medically related services[25:03.50]have evidently not been affected enough yet[25:06.78]to demand changes in our medical system.[25:10.28]But if trends continue as predicted,[25:13.67]they will find that most critical hospital care[25:16.85]will be provided by new, inexperienced,[25:21.00]and sometimes inadequately trained nurses.[25:26.30]Now the passage will be read again.[25:29.03]Nursing, as a typically female profession,[25:33.40]must deal constantly with the false impression[25:36.36]that nurses are there to wait on the physician.[25:40.08]As nurses, we are licensed to provide nursing care only.

六级听力长对话六级听力长对话一共两组，每组长对话由一男一女两人的多轮对话组成（一般为7—10轮），平均长度大约为260词，每组长对话后设3—4题，两组共7题，问题全部是特殊疑问句，要求考生从所给的四个选项中选出最佳答案。
每组长对话只朗读一遍，每个问题后留有13秒的答题时间。
五如何预测听音重点学会在听音前阅读选项，利用选项信息预测对话内容、问题内容，明确听音时应该重点关注什么。
长对话的篇幅较长，涉及的信息较多，听音时想要抓住所有的信息几乎是不可能的，因此，学会在听音前阅读选项，利用选项信息推测对话内容、问题内容，排除干扰选项，从而锁定听音时需要重点关注的内容，就变得非常重要。
一、结合各题选项推测对话主题将各题选项内容归纳在一起，找出属于同一个场景的相关词语，往往可以大致推出整篇对话的主题。
如果某一题目是考查对话主题，其中的一个选项明显能够概括其他各题选项的内容，那么该选项很可能为答案。
一般来说，选项为名词短语时，问题很可能是考查对话主题。
【例1】(07-6-Conversation Two)【预览选项】23.［A］At a fair.［B］At a cafeteria.［C］In a computer lab.［D］In a shopping mall.24.［A］The latest computer technology.［B］The organizing of an exhibition.［C］The purchasing of some equipment.［D］The dramatic changes in the job market.25.［A］Data collection.［B］Training consultancy.［C］Corporate management.［D］Information processing.【预测信息】预览三道题各选项，由computer, equipment, data collection, information processing可推知，对话主题可能与计算机技术有关；再根据fair, exhibition可推测，对话可能还涉及到展会。
大学英语六级听力技巧
六级听力辅导大学英语六级听力技巧一、六级与四级考试听力部分的不同要求1999年《大学英语教学大纲（修订本）》规定，基础阶段的教学要求分为基本要求和较高要求两种。
达到四级为基本要求；达到六级为较高要求。
大学英语六级听力技巧听力的六级要求为“对题材熟悉、句子结构不太复杂、基本没有生词、语速为每分钟150至170词的篇幅较长的会话、谈话、报道和讲座，能掌握其中心大意，抓住要点和有关细节，领会讲话者的观点和态度，并能进行分析、推理和判断。
”大学英语六级听力技巧直观上讲，就是六级考试听力部分的录音速度比四级快10-20词/分钟，在考试时间相同的情况下，短文部分每篇就可以多出20-30词。
小对话有时也会特别罗嗦，虽然最后考察的信息只有一个，但是对话中可以提供的会多一些。
干扰信息的增加同样会增加考试的难度。
大学英语六级听力技巧二、考生面临六级考试的差距、原因分析，及应对方法即使在重点大学，本科阶段六级考试的通过率也只有30%上下。
而听力测试始终是应试考生的弱项。
考生的差距主要表现在：1）对单词、短语或语句的音感刺激不敏感、不熟悉，反应迟缓。
大学英语六级听力技巧原因在于很多考生是出于应付考试而不是掌握一门语言的动机去学习英语。
除了认识一些单词之外，对作为一们语言的英语是既听不懂也说不出，听英文对话或者段落时是一个词一个词那么去听，熟悉程度远远达不到正常交流的要求，而六级考试的听力部分的语速已经接近于正常语速。
大学英语六级听力技巧考生需要加强的就是语言能力的应用，多听，多写，多说，在学习语言的过程中更多的着眼于应用而不是应考，在学习材料的选择上侧重于段落文章而不是单纯去背单词或者字典。
另外一些学校的图书馆会定期播放一些中文字幕的原版电影，这些材料对英语语言的学习，尤其是听力能力的提高，是相当有帮助的。
近年来六级考试的内容越来越贴近现实，部分题目要求对英美国家的生活习俗有一定了解才可以正确回答,例如:大学英语六级听力技巧A) Painting a picture.B) Hosting a program.C) Designing a studio.D) T aking a photograph.大学英语六级听力技巧W: Well, tonight we have Professor Brown in the studio to talk about his recent book Fashion Images. Good evening, professor.M: Good evening, and thank you for inviting me here this evening.Q: What is the woman doing?大学英语六级听力技巧(答案为B,CET_6 2002年6月第3题)就这类题目来讲，单纯依靠课本或者听力课程中的知识是很难解答的，因为studio本身也是个多义词：可以是创作室，可以是摄影棚或者录音室，也可以是演播室；而如果接触过一些英文的广播或者电视节目，这类题目就很容易解决了。
六级听力备考指南
旧六级听力的短对话以but 题型(转折题型)及替换题型(词组词汇)为主要考点。
对于新六级听力，从考点看，but 题型的比重减少，而替换题中对于短语和小词的考查难度明显提高。
对于替换题，大家需要关注三个层次的替换：单词与词组的替换、词与词的替换、语义替换，其中语义替换最能考查考生实力。
关于替换题型，请看下面的例题：W:Hello, Professor White, I got mygrade in the mail this morning, but I think there might be a mistake in my mark.M:Yeah. I’ve got several calls justlike yours. There must be a prob-lem with the computing system.It should be straightened out in a couple of hours.Q:What does the man mean?(2008年6月六级听力真题)这道题中的单词和句型绝大多数都很简单，理解起来也不难。
但考点集中在了be straightened out 这个相对生僻的短语上，再加上straightened out被连读，考生可能听得一头雾水，做题也无从下手了。
Be straightened out意思是“被解决，被改正”，理解词义之后，答案就显而易见了：A) The errors will be corrected soon.另外，当考生发现原文“there might be a mis-take in my mark ”中的核心词mistake 与选项A)当中的errors 同义时，也可根据“听力原文核心词(如mistake)的同义替换词(如error)所在项往往就是正确选项”这一解题技巧，选出正确答案。
从场景来看，旧六级听力的短对话场景主要集中于学校、娱乐场所等与学生生活相关的场景。

I want to make sure I get the right gift for Mum’s birthday.Q: What is the man doing right now?12. W: I’ve never seen you have such confidence before an exam.M: It’s more than confidence. Right now I feel that if I get less than an A, it’ll be the fault of the exam itself.Q: What does the man mean?13. W: Just look at this newspaper, nothing but murder, death and war! Do you still believe people are basically good?M: Of course I do. But newspapers hardly ever report stories about peace and generosity. They are not news.Q: What do we learn from the conversation?14. M: Tom must be joking when he said he plans to sell his shop and go to medical school.W: You are quite right. He is just kidding.

It really made a lot of difference.M: Hmm…So, what did you do?W: Well, I didn’t drink any alcohol or coffee and I didn’t eat any meat or rich food.

We’ve grown quite dramatically over the past 12 months and we really ne ed some technological help to enable us to keep on top of everything.Passage Two25 years ago, Ray Anderson, a single parent with a one-year-old son, witnessed a terrible accident, which took place when the driver of a truck ran a red light and collided it with the car of Sandra Drinkens. The impact of the collision killed Sandra instantly, but her three-month-old daughter was left trapped in the burning car. While others looked on in horror, Anderson jumped out of his vehicle and crawled into the car through the shattered rear window to try to free the infant. Seconds later, the car was enclosed in flames, but to everyone’s amazement, Anderson was able to pull the baby to safety. While the baby was all right, Anderson was seriously injured. Two days later, he died. But his heroic act was published widely in the media. His son was soon adopted by relatives.The most remarkable part of this story unfolded only last week. Karen and her boyfriend Michael were looking through some old boxes when they came across some old newspaper clippings. “This is me when I was a new born baby. I was rescued from a burning car but my mother died in the accident,’’ explained Karen. Although Michael knew Karen’s mother had died years earlier, he never fully understood the circumstances until he skimmed over the news paper article. To Karen’s surprise, Michael was absorbed in the details of the accident and he began to cry uncontrollably. Then he revealed that the man that pulled Karen from the flames was the father he never knew. The two embraced and shed many tears, recounting stories told to them about their parents.Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you’ve just heard.29. What happened 25 years ago?30. What does the speaker say about Michael’s father?31. Why did Michael cry uncontrollably when he skimmed over the newspaper article?Passage ThreeAmericans suffer from an overdose of work. Regardless of who they are or what they do, Americans spend more time at work than at any time since World War II. In 1950, the US had fewer working hours than any other industrialized country. Today it exceeds any country but Japan, where industrial employees log 2,155 hours a year, compared with 1,951 in the US, and 1,603 in the former West Germany. Between 1969 and 1989 employed Americans added an average of 138 hours to their yearly work schedules. The work week has remained at about 40 hours, but people are working more weeks each year. Specifically, paid time off, holidays, vacations, sick leave shrank by 50% in the 1980’s. As co-operations have experienced stiffer competition and slower growth productivity, they have pressed employees to work longer. Cost cutting lay-offs in the 1980’s reduced the professional and managerial ranks leaving fewer people to get the job done. In lower paid occupations, when wages have been reduced, workers have added hours in overtime or extra jobs to preserve their living standards. The government estimates that more than 7 million people hold a second job. For the first time, large numbers of people say they want to cut back on working hours even if it means earning less money. But most employers are unwilling to letthem to do so. The government, which has stepped back from its traditional role as a regulator of work time should take steps to make shorter hours possible. Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.32. In which country do the employees work the longest hours?33. How do employed Americans manage to work more hours?34. Why do corporations press the employees to work longer hours according to the speaker?35. What does the speaker say many Americans prefer to do?Compound DictationNursing, as a typically female profession, must deal constantly with the false impression that nurses are there to wait on the position. As nurses, we are licensed to provide nursing care only. We do not have any legal or moral obligation to any physician. We provide health teaching, assess physical as well as emotional problems, coordinate patient-related services and make all of our nursing decisions based upon what is best or suitable for the patient. If, in any circumstance, we feel that the physician’s order is inappropriate or unsafe, we have a legal responsibility to question that order or refuse to carry it out. Nursing is not a nine-to-five job with every weekend off. All nurses are aware of that before they enter the profession. The emotional and physical stress, however, that occurs due to odd working hours is a prime reason for a lot of the career for dissatisfaction. It is sometimes required that we work overtime and that we change shifts four or five times a month. That disturbs our personal lives, disrupts our sleeping and eating habits, and isolates us from everything except job-related friends and activities. The quality of nursing care is being affected dramatically by these situations. Most hospitals are now staffed by new graduates as experienced nurses finally give up trying to change the system. Consumers of medically-related services have evidently not been affected enough yet to demand changes in our medical system. But if trends continue as predicted, they will find that most critical hospital care will be provided by new, inexperienced and sometimes inadequately-trained nurses.。
