听力技巧听力技巧(一)提醒考生务必先看选项。
当录音人开始宣读 Directions 时，考生应充分利用这段时间速读选项，预测考点，从而做到心中有数。
通过先看选项，可以明确1）题目涉及到的人物、地点、场合等，在非主题题型中，可能暴露该题的主题。
考生可以通过对全部选项的速读建立起一个大概的场景，比如:图书馆、医院病房等，从而联想起与该环境有关的词汇2）当四个选项是同类短语时，考点就在这一细节。
这时，考生应充分集中精力，听懂时间3）尽管四个选项中只有一个正确答案，其余的三个选项设置也并非和题目毫无关系。
利用设定干扰选项所遵循的规律，我们可以大胆地进行猜想。
这种猜测其实并不耽误时间，也不怎么消耗脑力，考生反而能够通过猜想事先得到一个对该题的印象。
结合四个选项的共同点，我们往往可以得到大量的提示，有时候，甚至可以把答案猜得八九不离十。
真正听题的时候，考生可以和录音人给出的信息进行比较，轻易排除错误选项，直达正确答案。
举例如下：请考生铭记：对待一切听力考试都行之有效的第一条战术是：抓紧时间先看选项并提炼其中的信息点和主题。
听力技巧(二)掌握节奏可能没有哪种考试对时间安排的要求比听力考试还要苛刻。
“录音不等人”，所以很多考生答题时都很紧张。
其实，听力考试每分钟阅读的字数和停顿时间有严格限制：约每分钟140 词，每个问题后有约15秒停顿。
这就象是跳舞唱歌，拍子已经固定，我们要做的是跟上节奏，过分的紧张只会造成混乱，直接影响发挥。
请考生铭记：掌握节奏，按部就班地做好答题准备，就相当于拥有双倍的答题时间！听力技巧(三)听力是一种ParaphraseParaphrase 就是运用同类词语的替换或句型的变换解释句或段的意义。
听力考试多数时候是一种paraphrase考试，它往往考的不是考生是否听见，而是考考生是否听懂。
把命题中的对话和段落原封不动地照搬到答案里，等着考生把它挑出来，在六级听力考试中这种题型几乎找不到。
绝大多数题目，要求考生把听到的原文进行变换和归纳，对应到选项中。

When you get to the part where I‟m expected to promise to …love, respect and obey her,‟…giving up all others,‟ and …be true to her forever,‟ I‟d be happy if you‟d just leave that part out.” He gave the minister the cash and walked away with a light heart. The wedding day arrived, and the bride and groom reached that part of the ceremony where they would make vows to each other. When it was time for the groom‟s vows, the minister looked the young man in the eye and said, “Will you promise to kneel before her, obey her every command and wish, serve her breakfast in bed every morning of your life and make a vow before God and your lovely wife that you will never even look at another woman, as long as you both shall live?”The groom was shocked, but in spite of himself, he said in a low voice, “Yes, I will.” Then the groom whispered to the minister, “I thought we had a deal.” The minister put the $100 into his hand and whispered back, “She made me a much better offer.”1.F2.F3.T4.T5.FTask 3: Long Distance FriendshipsAmerican weddings are not always the same. I‟d like to show you pictures of my wedding. When we got engaged, an announcement was published in the newspaper. The announcement typically includes the names of the bride, the bridegroom and their parents and the wedding is expected to be held. About a month before the wedding, we sent out wedding invitations to relatives and friends. This is the church where we had the wedding. My father gave me to my future husband. Then the minister started the wedding ceremony. He greeted the guests, and talked about the meaning of marriage. Next, we exchanged vows and gave each other rings. This is the main part of the wedding. After the vows, the minister prayed for us. Then the minister declared us husband and wife, and we kissed each other. Here is my sister, who was a bridesmaid. This is the bouquet I carried. Traditionally, the unmarried women gather after the wedding, and the bride throws her bouquet to them. The one who catches it will, according to tradition, be the next one to get married. At the reception, we cut the wedding cake and fed each other bites of the cake. Then we toasted each other with champagne. Finally the reception was over, and the minister signed the marriage certificate and we were legally married.1. A2.B3.C4.D1-3-7-5-4-2-6IV.

For me, love is the most important V. Let‟s TalkDatingBefore marriage, younger Americans date each other, that is, they often go out together. Casual dating usually begins in the early teens, and in the late teens a pattern of steady dating develops. There is a great possibility that one goes to a dance with one person, to a football game with another, and to a picnic with a third. Sometimes two couples go out together. This is known as “double dating.”Group dating is also popular among young people. Large groups of boys and girls may go around together. Young people may go out together for a long time, which is, in effect, a public statement of their intention to marry. Men and women go out together a great deal, especially those in cities. This is “adult dating.”They ski together, dine together, either at restaurants or in each other‟s homes. The American dating system is a rather casual one. Often young Americans who hardly know each other go out on dates. It is also acceptable for them to arrange a “blind date”, that is, a date between two young people who have not met before.Dating DescriptionCausal dating Early teensSteady dating Late teensMany partners e.g. a dance, a game, a picnicDouble dating Two couplesGroup dating Large groupsGo out for a long period Intention to marryAdult dating Men and women.e.g.ski, work, dine together Casual dating system Those who hardly know each otherBlind dating Those who have never met beforeVI. Furthering Listening and SpeakingTask 1: Finding the Right Type of GirlKeith: Hey, Peter! You‟ve been in the room all night. Get out and dance with someone like that babe over there.Peter: No way, Keith! She‟s the intellectual type. My pickup line just won‟t work with her. Keith: Oh, come on, man! What kind of girl do you like?Peter: I want a girl that gentle and mild, and that babe is not the right type.Keith: Times are changing, and you‟ll never find a woman that will shine your shoes and fill your beer mug all the time. Wake up.Peter: Oh really? I still prefer women that stay home, cook, clean, and take care of the kids. Keith: Okay, then what will you do after you get home from work?Peter: Hmm. Eat, watch TV, and throw our the trash.Keith: Wit, wait, wait. I can‟t believe my ears. You‟ll never find a wife.1.B2.D3.C4.ATask 2: He thinks I‟m God.A young woman brings home her fiancéto meet her parents. After dinner, her mother tells her father to find out about the young man‟s plans. The father invites the fiancéto his study for a drink.“So what are your plans?” the father asks the young man.“I am a Bible student,” he replies.“A Bible student. Hmm.” The father says. “Good, but what will you do to provide my daughter with a nice house such as she‟s accustomed to?”“I will study,”: the young man replies, “and God will provide for us.”“And how will you buy her a beautiful engagement ring such as she deserves?” asks the father. “I will concentrate on my studies,” the Youngman replies, “and God will provide for us.”“And children?” asks the father. “How will you support children?”“Don‟t worry, sir. God will provide,” replies the fiancé.The conversation goes on like this, and each time the father questions him, the young man insists that God will provide. Later, the mother asks, “How did it go, honey?”The father answers, “He had no job and no plans, but the good news is he thinks I‟m God.”1.F2.T3.F4.T5.TTask 3: LadyLady, I‟m your knight in shining armor and I love you.You have made me what I am and I am yours.My love, there‟s so many ways I want to say I love you.Let me hold you in my arms forever more.You have gone and made me such a fool;I‟m so lost in your love.And on, we belong together.Won‟t you believe in my song?Lady, for so many years I thought I‟d never find you.You have some into my life and made me whole.Forever let me wake to see you each and every morning.Let me hear you whisper softly in my ear.In my eyes I see no one else but you.There‟s no other love like our love.And yes, oh yes, I‟ll always want you near me.I‟ve wanted for you so long.Lady, your love‟s the only love I needAnd beside me is where I want you to be.…Cause, my love, there‟s something I want you to know,You‟re the love of my life, you‟re my lady.SpeakingMutual LoveJill: You know, Robert, we‟ve been dating a long time now.Robert: Yeah.

This is my solemn●vow."A typical Chinese wedding nowadays goes like this: when a new couple is engaged, what followed is actually a choice of the date of their marriage. Most people would favor a bank holiday or special Chinese festivals because those dates are usually more convenient for their relatives and friends to attend the wedding. However, quite a few others, especially those in the countryside, would probably ask a fortune-teller to choose a special luckyred- letter date (usually an even number) so that their marriage would have “double Happiness”.●On the day of the wedding, The bride and the bridegroom make themselves up to look their best. In rural areas, the bride is veiled andcarried in a sedan-chair, whereas in urban areas, the bridegroom usually meets the bride in a car.●Upon the arrival of the bride, firecrackers are set off and colorful ribbons and confetti are thrown all over the bride and bridegroom to bring them good luck. Sometimes, very loud traditional music is also played to create a lively atmosphere.●After a lot of courtesies and formalities, the new couple is requiredto stand side by side, making three bows. The wedding ceremony veryoften ends with a very extravagant banquet. Toasts are made to wishthe new couple long life, eternal love and happiness, early birth of a healthy baby and so on. They are also usually given many lovely and useful gifts by their friends and relatives.。

Let’s TalkThe Origin of the Song “Happy Birthday to You”The story of the song “Happy Birthday to You” Began as a sweet one, but later became bitter. Two sisters, Mildred Hill, a teacher at a kindergarten, and Dr. Patty Hill, the principal of the same school, wrote a song together for the children, entitled “Good Morning to All”. When Mildred combined her musical talents with her sister’s knowledge in the area of kindergarten education, ‘Good Morning to All” was sure to be a success. The sister published the song in a collection entitled “Song Stories of the Kindergarten” in 1893. Thirty-one years later, after Dr. Patty Hill became the head of the Department of Kindergarten Education at Columbia University’s TeachersCollege, a gentleman by the name Robert Coleman published the song, without the sisters’ permission. He added a second part, which is the familiar “Happy Birthday to You”. Mr. Coleman’s addition of the second part made the song popular and, finally, the sisters” original first part disappeared. “Happy Birthday to You” had altogether replaced the sisters’ original song “Good Morning to All”. In 1916 Patty took legal action against Mr. Coleman. In court, she succeeded in proving that hey were the real owners of the song.1. Good Morning to All2.。

Furthering Listening and SpeakingTask 1: Medical Services on CampusWhile every university in America has its own policies and creates its own rules, most provide some type of medical service or health insurance for students, especially large universities. If students have a cold, or other illnesses, they can see a doctor, and they may also seek medical advice on a range of issues. Free testing for STDs such as HIV is a major part of disease prevention prevention——sharing important information about the epidemic. If students need a major operation or procedure, they must seek outside assistance, but the school may help them make the arrangements. Smaller universities and colleges are not likely to provide in-depth medical assistance; they usually deal with small problems in housing, and assist students to take care of major issues off campus. No medical services are offered in universities and colleges that do not have students living on campus.1. medical servicehealth insurance 2. medical advice 3. operation outsidemake the arrangements 4. medical assistance housingoff campus 5. living on campusTask 2: An Expensive TreatmentSteven had a temperature of 100.

How to improve your English listening skills-1
语音问题自身准确地道的英语发音不能让你在听力上面无往不利，但是不准确不地道的发音绝对要妨碍听力水平的提高。
试设想，如果你的语音不准，甚至错误，你又怎能听懂正确的发音呢？中国学生在语音方面经常遇到的问题有以下几种：1、连读连读即连在一起读，就是两个或多个分属不同单词的音因相邻或语速快等原因而连在一起读出的现象。
如：I called~you half~an~hour~ago. It~is~an~old book连读的条件：相邻的两词在意义上必须密切相关，同属一个意群。
连读所构成的音节一般都不重读，只需顺其自然地一带而过，不可读得太重，也不可太轻。
连读主要有以下几种类型：(1)“辅音+元音”型连读在同一个意群里，如果相邻两词中的前一个词是以辅音结尾，后一个词是以元音开头，这就要将辅音与元音拼起来连读。
I’m~an~English boyIt~is~an~old bookLet me have~a look~at~it.Ms Black worked in~an~office last~yesterday.I called~you half~an~hour~ago.Put~it~on, please.Not~at~all.Please pick~it~up.(2) 击穿清辅音（h）的连读在英语听力中，如果前一个单词以辅音结尾，则该辅音几乎必然要击穿后一单词开头的清辅音（h），直接与（h）后面的元音连读。
如：isn’t he? (izn ti)d on’t have (dɔn tæv)sell her books (se lə buk)(3) 失去爆破：顾名思义，指爆破音失去爆破。
发生的条件如下：当前面的单词以[p]、[b]、[t]、[d]、[k]、[g]这六个爆破音中的任何一个结尾，而紧随其后的单词是以辅音开头的，这时前面单词中的爆破音失去爆破，即由相关的发音器官做好这个发音的姿势，稍做停顿后即发后面的爆破音。

I‟m crazy about Harry Potter. Have you heard that J.K. Rowling has added another book to the series?Amy: She‟s already written Book Seven? I‟m still waiting for Book Five…Peter: I know. Who isn‟t? At least we have the movies to watch in the meantime.Amy: By the way, have you seen the trailer yet?Peter: Yeah. It was great! I think the movie itself will be really scary.Amy: It surely will! All that writing on the wall in blood…It scares me to death just to think about it!Both the girl and the boy are excited/crazy about the movie and the hero Harry Potter. The boy heard that the writer J.K. Rowling has written the latest book, which is Book Seven, though the girl is still waiting for Book Five. The boy has been the trailer and believes the film will be scary. The girl shares that view because of the writing on the wall in blood.Task 2: A Great ActorThere was once a great actor who could no longer remember his lines. After several years of searching, he finally found a theater that was willing to give him a try. The director said, “This is the most important part, and it has only one line. At the opening you walk onto stage carrying a rose. You hold the rose to your nose with just one finger and thumb, smell it deeply and then say the line on praise of the rose: …Ah, the sweet smell of my love.‟” The actor was excited. All day long before the play he practiced his line over and over again. Finally, the time came. The curtain went up, the actor walked onto the stage, looked at the audience, and with great emotion said the line, “Ah, the sweet smell of my love.” The audience exploded in laughter. Only the director was furious! “Ahhhhhh! You damned fool!”he cried. “You‟ve ruined my play! You‟ve ruined me!”The actor was puzzled, “What happened? Did I forget my line?”“No!” shouted the director. “You forget the rose!”1.D2.C3.D4.A5.BTask 3: Movie ReviewsI love movies! And after I see them, I like to comment on them. These are movies I saw this year I would like to recommend: Among comedies I highly recommend “Monsoon Wedding”. It‟s an Indian movie. The story is about an Indian wedding. Preparations for the wedding bring out funny and sad situations touching on love and a past rape. This movie shows some of the wonderful customs of India, and the importance of family and love. It‟s great!Among dramas, I like “Adaptation”. It is an excellent movie! But for me the first part of the movie was too fast to follow. I hope to see it again on DVD with captions.“The Pianist” is set in the Second World War. It‟s about a young Polish-Jewish pianist, who lives in Warsaw with his family. The Nazis sent his family to die in the concentration camps. He was safe, but would have died without unusually good luck and the kindness of a few non-Jews. This is a powerful movie with thought-provoking themes.“Rabbit-Proof Fence” is set in the 1930s in Australia, and it‟s based on real events. It is about three native girls who are separated from their families by the racist police who send them to special centers. There the girls are taught practical skills, and the government tries to integrate them into white Australian society. They can away from the camp and walked 1,500 miles to find their mothers. This is a sad, touching story that you should not miss.1.He likes to see movies and comment on them.2.Four.3.Three.4.One.IV. Speaking OutModel 1 Will you come with me?John: Laura, I am wondering if you‟re free tomorrow night.Laura: Well, I guess I am. Why?John: I‟ve got two Star Wars premiere tickets. Will you come with me?Laura: Yeah, definitely! Thanks for inviting me!John: It‟s my pleasure.Laura: I really wanted to see Star Wars on the opening night, but the tickets were sold out. How did you manage to get hold of them?John: A friend of mine works at the “Pepsi” headquarters, which is a major sponsor of the movie.So he was able to get the tickets for free.Laura: Wow, people are paying as much as $200 each on the black market. I‟m flattered you went through all this trouble just for me.John: You‟re welcome.Now Your TurnSAMPLE DIALOGA: Hi, are you busy this weekend?B: Yes. What‟s on your mind?A: I‟ve got two tickets for the car exhibition. Would you like to go with me?B: Sure. Thanks for your invitation.A: It‟s nothing.B: I‟ve been wanting to see exhibition, but it was not at all easy to get a ticket. How did you manage to get two tickets?A: A friend of mine works at the exhibition center. She was able to get three free tickets.B: Wow, people are paying almost 100 yuan for a ticket on the black market. Thank you very much indeed for inviting me.A: No problem.Model 2 What did you think about the movie?John: So…what did you think about the movie?Laura: Well… I think this Star Wars episode is an excellent piece of work, but not as good as the previous ones.John: Really? But I think this Star Wars episode was incredible!Laura: Why do you think so?John: Well, one of the most spectacular things about it was the special effects. State-of-the-art special effects were the main reason for the success of the previous episodes.Laura: You‟re right. The special effects were amazing! And I like the fact that they created so many fantastic settings and other-worldly costumes, weapons and creatures.Now Your TurnSAMPLE DIALOGA: What did you think about The Lion King?B: Well… I think this cartoon was pretty good, but not as good as Beauty and the Beast. It‟s a killer flick.A: Really? But I think The Lion King was unbelievably good.B: I thought it was just OK. Why do you think so?A: Well, it‟s so interesting that the lives of the lions were similar to the lives of human beings. B: You‟re right. The murder in The Lion King was almost the same as the murder in the Shakespearean play Hamlet.Model 3 The plot is first-class.John: It‟s kind of cool that they still used the same Star Wars theme song for this movie. Laura: Yeah! It just reminds me of the previous Star Wars scenes.John: I know exactly what you mean! Hearing that song makes me think of the past.Laura: I think the plot was first-class. But I don‟t think the character development was that strong.John: Do you think that has anything to do with the casting of the movie?Laura: No, the casting was great; the actors are excellent, but I think the acting was a little weak.They just didn‟t have a lot of funny or meaningful lines.John: Well, maybe, but I liked the little kid that played “Skywalker”. I can‟t imagine anyone else playing that part.Laura: Yeah, I liked him too. He‟s soooo cute!Now Your TurnSAMPLE DIALOGA: What do you think about the movie?B: I think the plot was first-class. But I don‟t think the character development was so strong.A: Yes, the characterization was rather weak. Do you think it is because of the casting of themovie?B: No, the cast was strong. But the acting was rather poor. And the lines are not interesting at all. A: Well, maybe. But I liked the heroine of the movie. She is excellent.B: Yeah, I liked her too. She‟s adorable!V. Let‟s TalkAlfred HitchcockAlfred Hitchcock was a British director. His movies frequently show innocent people caught up in situations beyond their control or even understanding.Hitchcock preferred the use of suspense in his movies. In surprise, the director provides the viewer with frightening things. In suspense, the director tells or shows things to the audience which the characters in the movie do not know, and then skillfully builds up tension around what will happen when the characters finally learn the truth. Hitchcock had a great sense of humor. Once at a French airport, a suspicious customs official looked at Hitchcock‟s passport, which was marked simply PRODUCER. The curious official asked, “And what do you produce?”“Gooseflesh.”replied Hitchcock.Alfred Hitchcock always managed to make a brief appearance in his movies: He was sometimes getting on a bus, or crossing a street, pr walking in front of a store, or across the courtyard in an apartment. However, for the movie Lifeboat in 1944, he was faced with a difficult problem. The entire movie was set in a lifeboat out at sea, and there were only a few characters in the boat. Originally, he wanted to float by as a dead body, but he was afraid he‟d sink! His clever solution was to place a photograph of himself in a newspaper that one of the characters read during the course of the movie.1. A2.C3.DVI. Furthering Listening and Speaking ListeningTask 1: Only One LinePeter has always wanted to be an actor, but never succeeded because he had a hard time memorizing lines. A friend of his told him about a small part in a play. He promised Peter that he could do it because he‟s only have to remember one line. Peter decided to take the part. His only line was, “Listen, I hear the guns roar!” Peter practiced and practiced, “Listen, I hear the guns roar!” On the opening night of the play Peter was very nervous. Backstage, he practiced his line, over and over again, “Listen, I hear the guns roar! Listen, I hear the guns roar!” Finally came his turn, Peter went onto stage. He heard a loud BOOM and cried out in spite of himself, “WHAT THE HELL WAS THA T?”1.memorizing lines2.remember one line3.I hear the guns roar4. a loud boom5.his lineTask 2: An Interview with J.K. RowlingQ: How did you get the idea for Harry Potter?A: I was traveling on a train between Manchester and London and the idea for Harry just fell into my head. At that point it was essentially the idea for a body who didn‟t know he was a wizard. Q: Did you always plan to write Harry‟s story in more than one book? If so, how many?A: I always conceived it as a seven-book series because I decided that it would take seven years, from age eleven to seventeen, inclusive, to train as a wizard, and each of the books would deal with one year of Harry‟s life at the school.Q: Any clues about the next book?A: I don‟t want to i\give anything away, but I tell you that the books are getting darker. Harry‟s going to have quite a bit to deal with as he gets older. Sorry if they get too scary!Q: Of the many things you must have heard people say about Harry Potter, what are some of your favorites?A: My very favorite was from a twelve-year-old Scottish girl who came to hear me read at the Edinburgh book festival. At the end of the festival, the queue for signing was very long. When the girl finally reached me, she said, “I didn‟t WANT there to be so many people here, because this is MY books!” That is exactly how I feel about my favorite books. Nobody else has a right to know them; let alone like them!1.T2.F3.F4.T5.FTask 3: The Secret of the Next Harry Potter BookThe Harry Potter books rapidly became one of the most in-demand book series among young readers and have earned large sums of money. Movies based on the books won several Oscar nominations. Readers are now keen to know the plot of the next book.Harry Potter movie fans will get a long-awaited treat. The movie Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secret is finally about to come out. This time around, Harry discovers a frightening secret at Hogwarts School. Eager readers of the first four Harry Potter books are also trying to discover a secret, the secret plot of the fifth book in the series. Because of the long wait since Book Four, they are guessing many things. Some think that Professor Lupin will die or that Harry and his friend Ron may be related!J.K. Rowling herself has only said that Book Five will be shorter and scarier than Book Four. To make sure her readers hear only rumors, she locks all her ideas for the books in a hidden place. Since the next book does not come out until 2003, for mow Harry‟s secret is safe with her!1. D2.C3.A4.BSpeakingViews on MoviesInterviewer: Hello, Robert and Richard, I‟d like to ask you something about movies. Do you prefer going to the theater or watching movies on video at home?Robert: I prefer, personally, going to the theater, because I believe there are certain movies that come over better when you see them in a large theater. The sound effect is muchbetter.Interviewer: What about you, Richard?Richard: Just the opposite. It‟s more comfortable to sit at home.Interviewer: There‟re many different movie genres, for example, science fiction, action, comedy, romance. What‟s your personal favorite?Robert: My favorite would be action movies.Richard: And mine would be nice movies that touch me deeply.Interviewer: How do you like the old black and white movies of the forties, and fifties compared with the modern blockbusters?Robert: For their time, the movies of the forties and fifties were excellent. But try to compare them with today‟s technology, and you‟ll find there isn‟t anything to compare. It‟s sosuperior today.Richard: I agree.。

• 在听力材料中，有很多是围绕有关外国货币的内容设计的，因此，熟 悉一些主要国家的货币名称也很重要。常见的货币名称可以提示你对 话发生在什么国家或地区，也为证明说话者身份提供了信息。下面列 举一些常见货币名称： Dollar Franc Lira Mark Peso 墨西哥比索 Pound Ruble Yen 另外，还应知道在美元体系中，还有dime(一角银币)，nickel(5分镍 币)，cent(分)等单位及其之间关系。 • 讲到货币，还要对银行系统相关词汇有所了解。存款(deposit),汇款 (remittance),兑换(exchange),外币(foreign currency), 汇率(rate), 信用卡(credit card),旅行支票(traveling check)，遗产委托(heritage entrustment)，有的银行还经营金融市场(financial market)、证券 交易所(stock exchange)，用信用卡结算时，由银行扣除(deduct)。
(八)重视条件从句
• 四级题目中有不少是通过条件句来表达建议、想法、结果和趋势等。因此， 能正确理解和抓住说话者所要表达的真实意图至为重要。条件句有两种，一 是真实条件句，二是虚拟条件句。真实条件句表达的意思是直接而明显的， 一般指有可能实现;虚拟条件句是间接而含蓄的。对后者应有足够的谨慎。 M：If I go to the store, will you make dinner for us tonight? W：Bring back enough food. Q：What will the woman do if the man shops? A) The woman will cook. B) He won’t buy enough. C) He’ll get in a bad mood.

C) At a lecture. D) Unreasonable. 应选 B) 条件句中以if引导居多，注意这种句式的表达特点。 它们经常用省略的形 式，如if possible, if any, if not, if so, if necessary, if needed等，听省略形式 的条件句，主要应该抓住主句的基本内容，因为条件句不易听错，只要抓住 了主句的基本内容，就能正确做题。此外，表示条件的连词，除了if外，还有 as long as, so long as, suppose, supposing, let’s say, unless, without等。

Well, it happened a few years ago. I was living in a house with my parents. One evening I had to prepare myself for an examination at school. I was working in the basement atmy table when my parents went to the city to go shopping. Suddenly, I heard steps on the floor above me. I knew there was actually nobody in the house besides me. What could I do? I was terribly frightened because I knew that it must a burglar. We had the windows open to air the room, so it must be burglar. What could I do? I remembered that I had a toy gun in my cupboard, so I decide to take the toy gun and go upstairs. Well, I took the toy gun, went out of my room, and shouted as if there was another person, “ George, take the dog and go outside.” On my way upstairs, I turned on lights. The burglar must have heard me, and he rushed out of the window the way he came in.Well, I was relieved, and then I tried to phone my parents, but I was so terribly frightened that I wasn’t able to dial the number.Possible Retelling for the Teacher’s ReferenceHelen is telling us about her horrible experience. One evening she was preparing for her examination in the basement of her house. Her parents had gone out shopping. Suddenly she heard footsteps on the floor above. Knowing that she should be the only person at home, she was scared almost out of her wits. Obviously, a burglar had come in through the window that was left open for fresh air. Plucking up her courage, Helen took a toy gun from the cupboard and went upstairs. On the way she shouted, “ George, take the dog out.” Also to frighten the thief, she turned on some lights. The burglar must have heard all the noise and rushed out of the window where he got on. Now Helen felt somewhat relieved. She tried to phone her parents, but her trembling hand was simply unable to dial the number.VI. Further Listening and SpeakingTask 1: I hate flying.Dave: Sue, I haven’t seen you for a while.

What’s the prize?Sue: I’ve won a trip to Sydney.Dave: Wow! That’s great—but how will you get there?Sue: Fly, of course. It’s much too far to swim.Dave: I hate flying. With just the thought of not having my feet safe on the ground, three things happen: my stomach turns, my face goes pale, and I break into a cold sweat.Sue: But if you want to travel, you have to fly.Dave: That’s true. But if I were to fly, I’d have to get some medicines from the doctor.Sue: That’s must cause you a lot of trouble.Dave: Well, I have no other choice.1. prize software competition2. a trip to3. turns goes pale breaks into a cold sweat4. some medicines the doctor5. cause / give a lot of troubleTask 2: Don’t be afraid of the alligators!While enjoying fishing off the Florida coast, a tourist overturned his boat by accident. He could swim, but he was afraid of alligators. So he just held tight on to the overturned boat. After a while he saw a coast guard officer walking close to the shore, and he got excited. He shouted at the officer, “Are there any alligators around here?”“No,” the man shouted back, “they haven’t been around for years!” Feeling greatly relieved, the tourist started swimming lazily toward the shore.”About halfway there he asked the coast guard, just out of curiosity, “How did you get rid of the alligators?”“We didn’t do anything,” the officer answered. “Wow, how lucky I am,” said the tourist. The officer then added, “ The sharks got them.1.A) He caught hold of the boat.2.C) Whether there were any alligators around.3.D) No, not for the past years.4.B) The sharks killed all of them.5.A) A threat was replaced by a bigger threat.Task 3: Fear of FlyingAt a recent software engineering management course in the United States, the participants were given an awkward question to answer: “If you had just boarded an airliner and discovered that your team of programmers had been responsible for the flight control software, would you get off immediately? If yes, please put up your hands.”Then a forest of hands were raised, but one programmer called Smith did not put up his hand. When asked what he would do, he replied that he had no fear and would be quite happy to stay on board. “With my team’s software,” he said, “the plane was unlikely to even taxi as far as the runway, let alone take off.”1.

Poisonous ones like rattlers, and friendly ones like garter snakes.You aren’t afraid of the friendly snakes, are you?Nancy: Well, if we encounter any snakes, you’ll see how loud I can scream.Toney: Even if they’re friendly snakes?Nancy: Yeah, all snakes make my hair stand on end.。

The Soviet Union launched Sputnik in 1957. The Pentagon set up a research team in 1958 to create a computer network to operate during disasterslike a nuclear war. The resulting network linked U.S. scientific and academic researchers. It grew into the World Wide Web or the Internet that became the network system of the Information Age. In1985, the National Science Foundation created anetwork which provided a free national service toany U.S. research and education institution. Later, large corporations began to build their ownnetworks. All those networks finally joined the Pentagon’s network to form the Internet. By the 1990s, anyone with a computer, a modern, and Internet software could link up to the Internet. In thefuture, the Internet will probably grow more complex and become part of a larger network called theinformation highway. With that people could bank, shop, watch TV, and perform many other activities online.Task2: The Internet—A Small TownThe Internet is a global network, but in many ways it’s like a small town with similar services to offer. There are electronic post offices to send and receive e-mail, functioning somewhat more efficiently than the Post Office we know. Thereare libraries of information that stay open 24 hours a day with millions of books and documents to browse or search through on the World Wide Web or WWW. You can also enjoy real-time text-based communication, using written or printed material to communicate with others immediately and almost “face to face”. Local coffee shops are seen in the guise of chat room, with people dropping by at all hours of the day and night to socialize. Online education and training is available just as it is in a “bricks and mortar” university or school. Online banking offers you all the services available at your local bank, without fearing to be mugged at an ATM. You can buy almost anything, listen to your local radio station or do your grocery shopping. Indeed, the Internet is your town in a box!Task3: If only life could be like a computer!To get your daily exercise, just click on “run”!If you need a break from life, click on “suspend”. Hit “any key” to co ntinue life when ready.To “add/remove” someone in your life, click settings.To improve your appearance, just adjust the display settings.When you lose your car keys, click on “find”. You could click on “send” and the kids would go to bed immediately.To feel like a person, click on “refresh”.Click on “close” to shut up the noises.To undo a mistake, click on “back”.Is your furniture getting old?

Listening Skills
Nature of listening as a skill
• Besides the division of the skills as „receptive‟ and „productive‟, another subdivision focuses on „one-way reception‟ and „interactive reception‟ in this age of active learning. Reading and writing are one-way skills where learners don‟t get direct feedback. But in speaking and listening, learners may have their understanding and reproduction checked instantly. Thus active and self-learning takes place.
What will be checked?
• What „listening‟ really means is „listening and understanding what we hear at the same time‟. So, two concurrent actions are demanded to take place in this process.
• Even as a receptive skill, listening differs greatly with reading as reading materials are printed and permanent enough where the learners are required to interact with the next sentence using the knowledge of the previous one while listening involves continuous material presentation where they have to respond to the immediate expression. From the view point of “product” or “process”, listening is more a process than a product which instantly shapes the understanding and utterances of the learners.

Clock speed tells how fast data are processed.A clock speed of 100 is half as fast as a speed of 200.Q: How much faster is a clock speed of 200 than a clock speed of 100?1.D2. C3.A4.B5.CIII. Listening InTask 1: The Internet on CampusThe Internet, a worldwide information network, is used at universities mainly as an information supply source. Staff supply information via the Internet and students may access it or any otherpublicly available information. The Internet is also useful for students to communicate with staff.Teachers may present lecture materials in lecture halls, and at the same time, they can distribute thematerials for students to access from any location at any time via their computer. Such materials arepreesented mainly in the form of text, still pictures and hypertext links. Students find this valuable and relevant to their needs. If they must miss a lecture, students can still keep up to date. Staff usersmay put up notices of conferences, maintain professional contacts, and communicate and conductdiscussions with their colleagues or students. Students, on the other hand, are taught haow to use theInternet as an individual productivity tool in several courses.1. A2. D3. A4. A5. CTask 2: Surfing the NetW: Hi Bryan. Hare you doing? You look tired.m a little burnt out. I’’ve been surfing the Net for the last few hours.Oh, I’’m a little burnt out. IM：Oh, IW: Were you doing schoolwork, or was it just for pleasure?M：Well, I wanted to get some information on South America for a project I have, but I found a really interesting chat site with people from there and started chatting.W: Well, did you get the information you needed?M：Yes, but then we spent lots of time chatting about other interests.W: I see. The Internet is a wonderful place. There is so much information available. I completely understand how you can get distracted. Sometimes I find myself looking for one piece of information, but by the time I am finished I have a lot more than I started off looking for.M：I know. One thing I really don’t like about it, though, is it takes so much longer to find things, because many sites are useless.there’’s that, and also, I often find the same site over and over again in a search. That W: Y es, theredefinitely wastes lots of my time.M：And, of course, there are sites that offer little to no relevant information on the topic you are searching for. In my search today, I found quite a few sites that were nothing more than old local news archives and event calendars.W: Well, I’m sure they were useful to someone at some time, but they should be removed when they’’re no longer of use to anyone.theyM：I agree. With all the time I spnd on it, I still find it to be the best source of information available.And speaking of information, I really should read through what I got on the Internet and start working on my project.Okay. Good luck. It’’s funny we had this chat, as I was just on my way home to surf the Net W: Okay. Good luck. Itmyself.M：Well, it was nice talking to you, and maybe I’ll meet you in a chat room later tonight.1. Surfing the Internet for the last few hours.2.

Actually, Over the years, studies have shown that itcollege students are most likely to have the addiction because of many factors. Difficulty in adapting to life away from home, and certain psychological problems like depression or social anxiety are among the main reasons. College students have lots free time to spend and many of them are supplied with free Internet access and a computer in their doorms. It’s really easy to get addicted. Walking through the computer labs, you are most likely to find students chatting or surfing on the Internet. There are not just some, but many students not really doing anything related to schoolwork. They are spending far too much time online, which may do harm to their schoolwork and otheractivities. As a result, some have been academically dismissed, and others are even in the dangerzone for developing an addiction needs to be addressed now as a serious problem on collegecampuses.likely adapting psychological access c chatting c dismissedgamblingTask 4: A Brief Introduction honored as our guest computer hacking protect books and articles misuse New Threats to Securitywake your interestIV .

But I don ’t have the time. Besides, I ’m not into literature, you know. VI. Furthering Listening and SpeakingListeningTask 1: The Origin of the InternetThe story of the Internet begins in the late 1950s. The Soviet Union launched Sputnik in 1957. The Pentagon set up a research team in 1958 to create a computer network to operate during disasterslike a nuclear war. The resulting network linked U.S. scientific and academic researchers. It grewinto into the World Wide Web the World Wide Web or the Internet that became the network system of or the Internet that became the network system of the Information Age the Information Age . In 1985, the National Science Foundation created a network which provided 1985, the National Science Foundation created a network which provided a free national service a free national service to any U.S.any U.S. research and education institution. research and education institution. Later, large corporations began to build their ownnetworks. All those networks finally joined the Pentagon ’s network to form the Internet. By the1990s, anyone with a computer, a modern, and anyone with a computer, a modern, and Internet software Internet software could could link up link up to the Internet. In the future, the Internet will probably grow more complex and become part of a larger network called the information highway. With that people could bank, shop, watch TV With that people could bank, shop, watch TV, and perform many other , and perform many otheractivities online.Task2: The Internet —A Small TownThe Internet is a global network, but in many ways it’s like a small town with similar services to offer. There are electronic post offices to send and receive e-mail, functioning somewhat more efficiently than the Post Office we know. There are libraries of information that stay open 24 hours a day with millions of books and documents to browse or search through on the World Wide Web or WWW. Y ou can also enjoy real-time text-based communication, using written or printed material to communicate with others immediately and almost “face to face”. Local coffee shops are seen in the guise of chat room, with people dropping by at all hour hours of the day and night to socialize. Online education and training is available just as it is in a “bricks and s of the day and night to socialize. Online education and training is available just as it is in a “bricks and mortar” university or school. Online banking offers you all the services available at your local bank, without fearing to be mugged at an ATM. You can buy almost anything, listen to your local radio station or do your grocery shopping. Indeed, the Internet is your town in a box!全部打TTask3: If only life could be like a computer!To get your daily exercise, just click on “run ”!

COMMUNICATION TIMEAs long as we are familiar with the vocabulary, a normal adult CAN LISTEN without a significant loss of comprehension to as much as 500 WORDS A MINUTE which is faster than any of us speaks except in short bursts and under special and urgent circumstances.In ordinary, casual conversation, WE STILL SPEAK at a fair clip, a range between 200-300 WORDS, an average of about 250 words per minute, which leaves the listener with about TWICE AS MUCH MENTAL TIME as they need to get the message.When we address a group or deliver A LECTURE, we usually lower the rate - to about 125 WORDS PER MINUTE. The listener has 4 x THE MENTAL TIME THEY NEED TO GET THE MESSAGE.Thus, a skilled listener will use the extra time to their advantage to enhance and reinforce what they hear, to relate the message to their own experience... to fit into a larger context.Active Listening Skills: The need to listenActive Listening Skills: The need to listenLets have a break...A TEST OF YOUR CREATIVITY!(Self-Assessment Exercise)On each number, read the instructions.

LISTENING TECHNIQUESActive Listening leads to effective communication. Effective listeners HEAR and SELECT information from the speaker, give it meaning, determine how the speaker feels about it and respond in a matter of seconds. Only in this way is it possible to frame listening. It requires an ability to LISTEN for FEELINGS as well as words.A. HEARING THE MESSAGE1. Listening activelyConcentrate for the main theme of the discussion and specific ideas and facts. Be alert and ask questions. Check your posture. Sit up straight and look directly at the speaker.2. Listen objectivelyUnderstand the speaker’s point of view. Put aside your biases (resentments, personal objectives, conflicts, interests, etc.) on a topic.3. Listen analytically to the presentationRecognize the theme, then the key ideas, the supporting facts and other details.B. INTERPRETING THE MESSAGE4. Listen to the sender’s meaning for wordsCome to a mutual understanding of the speaker’s meaning. Good listeners know that a match-up in meaning is a match-up in understanding.5. Determine the main pointsLook for the structure of the message and mentally review the material that has gone before. The main points can come at the beginning, middle or end of a message. Usefulness of the message can be determined through the main points.6. Understand the non-verbal cuesGestures, facial expression, eyes and postures are non-verbal cues or body languages that either confirm or deny the message of the words and tone of voice. Ask for clarification or repetition if you are not sure of the speaker’s meaning.Active Listening Skills: Listening TechniquesC. EVALUATING THE MESSAGE7. Listen with empathy and understandingGather all of the key information before forming an opinion. Weigh and analyze all of the evidences before making a decision. An empathic listener puts himself in the source’s shoes and understands the problem from the sender’s point of view.8. Suspend judgmentAvoid making judgment about the speaker or the message. Understand the speaker’s intent in what he wants to convey. Respect and recognize his point of view. Paraphrase or clarify if you are not sure of what he has said.D. RESPONDING TO THE MESSAGE9. Provide feedbackListeners must provide feedback to the speaker in order to complete the communication process. An active listener will try to inform the speaker that he has heard, understood and evaluated appropriately the main message. A good feedback should be relevant and timely. It should be based on facts and should relate to what’s happening at that time.10. Control your emotionAs listeners, you may experience different levels of emotion to what the speaker says.“Loaded” words or statements can make you react emotionally. To control this, you must identify what triggers you, understand your responses and develop the ability to listen objectively and attentively without interrupting.Active Listening Skills: Listening TechniquesActive Listening Skills: Listening TechniquesE. LISTENING TOOLSNote :Direct questions differ from open-ended questions as they require a specific answer. Questions answerable by Yes or No, questions that start with Do, Can,May, Are, Is, Could, Will, Shall, etc., or a simple phrase will fall under this category. Direct questions are not considered as one of the listening tools since this technique doesn’t encourage people to express or explore ideas fully.TECHNIQUE/DEFINITIONSPURPOSEEXAMPLE1. Open-ended questions Questions which start with:HOW? WHAT? WHY? WHICH?- To collect information - To get responses- To maintain a neutral, non emotional climate How do you feel now?What do you think is the cause of the problem?2.

STYLES OF LISTENINGActive Listening is the most difficult aspect of the communication process to manage. Often, what we hear is different from what has been said. By recognizing the different styles of listening - both barriers and bridges to communication, and by eliminating the bad listening habits, we can make the best use of active listening to better understand others, to share ideas and to build on those ideas together.A. BARRIERS TO COMMUNICATION1. On-off listenerThis habit comes about because individuals think about four times as fast as the average person speaks. Thus, a person listening has 45 seconds of spare thinking time for each speaking minute. A listener of this type thinks of personal affairs, concerns and problems instead of asking questions to himself or interpreting the message.2. Emotional listenerAn emotional listener gets upset when he hears words or statements that relate to sensitive issues or topics that can put him in tight or awkward situations. If this happens, the listener automatically tunes out the speaker.3. Open-ears but closed-mind listenerThis all-knowing type listener assumes that he knows what the speaker will talk about and jumps to conclusion that there is nothing new if you listen to the speaker. He thinks and decides even before the start of the session that it is boring and what will be said makes no sense.4. Day-dreamerThis glassy-eyed listener has a dreamy expression. He seems to be looking at the speaker intently and listening attentively but his mind is really wandering or in far distant places.5. Too-complex-for-me listenerThis type of listener avoids too complex and complicated ideas or topics. In so doing, he is not able to follow the subject because he doesn’t make a real effort to understand what is being said.6. Compliant listenerThis is the shy type who doesn’t voice his ideas for fear of ridicule and/or criticism. He adds little to the discussionActive Listening Skills: Styles of listening7. Argumentation listenerThis type of listener doesn’t want his ideas, opinion and judgments challenged or over-tuned. Thus, when the speaker says something that opposes what he thinks, he will unconsciously stop listening to plan his response.8. Fault-finderThe critical type listener finds faults with what the speaker says or how he says it rather than concentrating on the message. He misses the most important facts and main ideas because he focuses on small details of each item being discussed.9. Note-taker listenerThis type of listener attends meetings with the purpose of getting all possible information. In so doing, he spends all his time taking down notes on all the materials presented. He forgets to listen to the main points or “meat” of the discussion because of his desire to write everything the speaker says.10. Mental filtersWe filter incoming messages through our own preconceptions. Messages contrary to our beliefs cannot pass, and unless we make a conscious effort, are simply not heard. (They are heard by our ears, but not by our minds.)B. BRIDGES TO COMMUNICATION1. Involved listenerThe Positive Type who is attentive and participates well in discussion. He tries to ask questions to clarify statements. He sends clear verbal and non-verbal responses and values good eye-contact. He listens objectively to the speaker’s point of view and tries to give the same connotation to the message so as to align his thoughts with that of the speaker’s intention.2. Active listenerClosely pays attention to the message that the speaker tries to relate. He asks questions to ensure that his interpretation of the statement is accurate. He also gives feedback to reach a common understanding with the speaker.3. Positive listenerNever disagrees with a speaker until he has played back the speaker’s point so that the speaker agrees it was correctly understood. This approach prevents the “Argumentative Listener” syndrome.Active Listening Skills: Styles of listeningSelf-Test (5 min)Styles of ListeningInstruction:Select a response from the right column (B) which correctly describes the listener’s style defined in the left column (A).
