本次大学四级听力试题难度中等,大部分题目仍然遵守视听一致原则。新闻考察的内容包括为Edison卖柠檬水和画画为生病的弟弟筹资;法国将在五年内马路上建造太阳能板来为人们供应能源;研究者们研究非洲狮子消失的原因。对话包括讨论生日怎么过的对话;如何成为一个优秀的谈判者等。利用选项的形式来判断原文出题的内容,提前给耳朵预热。比如完整的长选项,考生可直接使用视听一致原则;针对动作选项,例如A.to observe the wildlife in the two national park.则要多注意动作或直接听取‘to’信号词; 针对by选项,例如:A. by taking pictures for passers-by则要注意听取原文中的‘方式’等。

New report 1

1. 答案: B) Her little brother.

Q: Who did Edison raise money for?

解析: 新闻首句原则,了解大致内容是Edison卖柠檬水和画画为生病需要做心脏手术(surgery)的弟弟筹资。第一道题给考生来了个下马威,难度系数比较高, 需要考生自己分类信息再听取问题作答,这种题型称为模棱两可型题目,考察学生听力和反应能力。

A. Her friend Erika. 根据顺序原则,A选项在新闻最后才出现且与问题不符，先不作考虑。C/D选项是Edison祖母猜测Edison偷听到祖父的对话,从而得知弟弟生病,与问题无关,故排除。

2. 答案: C) By selling lemonade and pictures.

Q: How did Edison raise money?

原文:She decided to go outside and have a lemonade stand, make some jewelries and pictures and sell them.

这道题难度中等,根据选项形式都是by, 可得知问题一定是问how,因此,可预先考虑应该紧抓文章中的 “方式”,再根据视听一致原则即可得出答案。

解析: 这道题难度中等, 遵照试听一致原则,同时注意答案前后一致。

4. B) They can be laid right on top of existing highways.

Q: What is especial about the solar panels used in the walkway?

解析: 这道题有模棱两可选项出现,即B/C。但是,C呈现的听力内容只是介绍太阳能板的厚度;而B则是问题所问的特殊作用,因此,综合问题,得出答案即B。其中,highway相对应同义替换的词汇有: walkway, bypass等。
