大学英语四级听力技巧规律及常见词汇总结 四级听力的三个基本思路： 1. 学习——基于学生的角度，一定是抱怨学习 2. 生活——poor,很穷。 Student ID 学生证用于discount 打折，bargain 讨价还价 3. 学习vs 生活——忙，忙于学习 (就是说，解题从这三个思路出发，如果听不清题目说什么，就用这三个思路 往上套) Part I对话题 一.But 题型 形式：A:…… B:……，but ……. 重点听第二个说话人B说话，but 后面所说的话为重点，出题点往往在but 后面。四级听力题中，But 后面的为重点的占95%,之前的为重点的占5%。 e.g. (这题是反例，考的居然是but之前的内容，不过这种情况很少出现的) A: I suppose you’ve bought some gifts for your family. B: Well, I’ve bought a shirt for my father and two books for my sister. But I’ve not decided what to buy for my mother. Probably some jewels. Question: Who did the man buy the book for?

2017年6月大学英语四级听力练习（1）* How Did Thanksgiving 'Turkey' Get its Name? 感恩节“火鸡”是如何得名? The U.S. Thanksgiving holiday is symbolized by its traditional food, a large bird we call a turkey. But turkey is certainly not from Turkey. In fact, its English name is based on one big mistake. We could say it is a case of mistaken identity. Let’s set the record straight. The word “Turkey”has meant “the land of the Turks”since ancient times. The word “turkey”as it refers to the bird
first appeared in the English language in the mid-1500s. The misunderstanding over the word happened because of two similar-looking kinds of birds. There is an African bird called the guinea fowl. It has dark feathers with white spots and a patch of brown on the back of its neck. Portuguese traders brought the guinea fowl to Europe through North Africa. This foreign bird came to Europe through Turkish lands. So, the English thought of the bird as a “Turkish chicken.” When Europeans came to North America, they saw a bird that looked like the guinea fowl. This bird was native to the North American continent. Orin Hargraves is a lexicographer, someone who writes dictionaries. Hargraves explains what happened. “Some Europeans saw an American turkey, thought that it was the guinea fowl, which at that time was called the ‘turkey cock,’and so gave it the same name." Hundreds of years later, we continue to call this North American bird “turkey,”even though it has no connection at all with the country Turkey, or even with Europe. But English is not the only language with interesting -- and even questionable -- names for this North American bird.

英语四级听力技巧总结 英语四级听力技巧总结是怎样的，以下是小编精心整理的相关内容，希望对大家有所帮助! 英语四级听力技巧总结入门阶段，是对以前很少进行听力训练，甚至没有听过英语的朋友而言。这个阶段，是起步阶段，也是耗时最长的阶段，就我的经历而言，在这一部分，应该采取如下的训练方法: 1. 首先要纠正自己的英语发音，自己在口语上还算能过关，如果自己的发音都不行，那怎么可能听懂。 2. 选择难度较小，语速较慢的听力材料来训练。建议听的材料不要太长，以一段几百字为宜，内容最好是生活和文化方面，最好先不要听科技、伦理方面的文章，即使你能看懂，但从初学者的角度考虑，你听起来一定费力 3. 听的时间长度：以每天45分钟左右为宜，时间不能太短，这样就收不到训练的效果，但也不能强迫自己听的太多，毕竟这一阶段还有很多听不懂的地方，可以说有时候自己听得象在云里雾里，这样的状态持续的时间太长，对自信心是一个严重的打击，会严重地影响听的兴趣。 4. 听的频率，一天一次即可，选择一个固定的时间听，最好是自己精力比较旺盛的时间段。 5. 听的过程中的方法选择：唯有聚精会神，没有私心杂念才行，这只有通过不断地训练才能达到。要做到避免外
界因素的干扰。 6. 经典听力材料：VOA 特别英语。主要是新闻、文化方面的内容，语速90词每分钟，最适合有一定词汇量的听力初学者进行听力锻炼。我听的时候这个节目的时间段是晚上9点半到10点，我每晚的这个时间都给了SPECIAL ENGLISH，持续了3个月。建议采取的听力方法：做听力笔记，手中有笔和纸，及时地记下一些不熟知的词汇，因为特别英语的常用词只有1600左右，把这些常用词都弄懂，完全听懂它只是一个时间问题。 备注：这一阶段最重要，一定需要耐心和毅力，如果读写基础还行的话，应该能在2、3个月之内完成这个过程，进入攻坚阶段。 掌握了一定的备考方法之后，也要具备一定的答题技巧，下面小编就教大家几招。 第一招：相关保留原则 当选项中有两项表达意思相近时，那么正确答案必在这两项之中!这时只需稍微听一听对话，即可知答案，如果出现了双重相关，便可直接确认正确选项，只需听完对话加之认证一下即可! 典型例题： 4. A) Visiting the Browning. B) Writing a postcard.
