英语四六级听力长对话五大对策
英语四六级听力长对话五大对策
一、主题原则（前二后二回合必出，一问一答为一回合）
主题句常常在对话的开头，对整篇对话的大意起到概括和提示的作用，实际上是说话人所谈论的中心话题；长对话的第一题很可能针对对话的开头提问。
结尾处往往涉及到建议、决定或某种行为等，它对整个对话起到一个总结的作用。长对话的最后一题经常是针对对话的结尾设题，故留意结尾回合中的关键动词就成了解题的关键。
(07年6月 19题)
[A] To go sightseeing.
[B] To have meetings.
[C] To promote a new champagne.
[D] To join in a training program.
M: Hi, Ann, welcome back. How’s your trip to the states?
W: Very busy, [19]I had a lot of meetings. ...
19. Why did the woman go to New York?
选[B]。细节题。对话一开始，男士就问女士去美国的旅行怎么样，女士回答说很忙，她had a lot of meetings(要参加很多会议)，由此可知女士去纽约是去参加会议。
二、提问常出（听见什么选什么）
长对话中，对话双方往往出现多个一问一答，而这恰好成为了长对话的一个出题重点，文章结束后的问题往往就是对话原文中提问的原文复现或是同义转述，因此听清对话中紧接问题之后的答语基本可做出七成以上的题，如果不是为了追求满分，考场上完全可以遵循"听见什么选什么，"尤其是在题多量大时间短的情况下。
(07年6月 25题)
[A] Data collection.
[B] Training consultancy.
[C] Corporate management.
[D] Information processing.
W: What’s your line of business, Mr. Johnson?
M: We are a training consultancy.
25. What is the man’s line of business?
选[B]。细节题。女士的.提问即为本题的提问，答案就在男士接下来的回答中。女士问男士What’s your line of business(做哪一行)，男士回答说We are a training consultancy(我们是培训咨询公司),由此可知答案为[B]。
三、重读常出
对话的核心内容理应会得到说话人的强调，最为有效的强调方式莫过于重复，而且重复的词语往往能够揭示对话的主题。因此对那些对话双方多次提到的词语或内容应进行重点记忆。
(四六级考试委员会样卷-22题)
[A]The latest developments of an armed rebellion in Karnak.
[B]The fall of Karnak’s capital city into the hands of the rebel forces.
[C]The epidemic that has just broken out in the country of Karnak.
[D]The peace talks between the rebels and the government in Karnak.
W: We now interrupt our regular scheduled news program to bring you live up-to-date coverage on the civil unrest in the newly formed country of Karnak, where our man Stan Fielding is stationed. Stan ...
M: ..., rebel forces launched the biggest offensive against the ruling government in the 18-month conflict here in this country.
M:..., rebel forces are also using heavy artillery to pound the positions of government forces around the city center. Rebel forces are closing in, ...
M: ... this war-torn country ..., but that is always a concern if this war lingers on.
22.What is the news coverage mainly about?
选[A]。主旨题。主旨题的答案往往在开头或结尾，而本题的答案即出自开头的第一句。选项中的latest(最新的)对应该句中的live up-to-date(最新直播)，armed rebellion(武装叛乱)对应unrest(动乱)。另外，对话的主题往往会得到多次重复，因此根据后面多次出现的rebel forces, conflict, war等与"叛乱"相关的词语，也可判断本题答案为[A]。
