提高聽力的步驟：
第一步，聽懂考題；
第二步，總結(jié)考題規(guī)律；
第三步，了解考試本身，做類型題。

短對話題型分類：
Section A考題為六種題型。無論每個考題的具體內(nèi)容是什么，考題的題型總在重復。我們要培養(yǎng)解類型題的能力。比如在態(tài)度方向題中，每個考題的內(nèi)容肯定不同。但題型高度一致，解題的方向也必然相同。
如：Would you go to dance with me tonight?第二人的回答只有兩種Yes或No。我們要聽的是第二個人的態(tài)度方向。這個題問去跳舞嗎？而另外的一個完全不同的考題可能會問去看電影嗎？去音樂會嗎？去野餐嗎？去看比賽嗎？這些不同的考題在我們的耳朵里就應該是同一類考題。我們要聽的是：他在問去還是不去？第二人要回答Yes還是No。而解題點即正確選項一定就在第二人的回答的開頭。

聽力范圍：Campus life

考察對象：College students（在什么都沒聽清的情況下，異性猜classmate，同性猜roommate）
一、語音問題：連讀小練習
1. rush hour 高峰時間，尖峰時刻；
2. cheer up 使振奮，使高興；
3. check (it) out 借書；辦理出院手續(xù)；徹底檢查；退房（check in 開房）；
4. travel agent 旅行社（travel agency, travel bureau）；financial aid 經(jīng)濟資助；
5. turn down 關(guān)掉，拒絕；turn on 打開

二、口語問題：注意語氣，語調(diào)，語匯。

例如：
1. tape 膠帶；cassette 磁帶。
2. project 作業(yè)（homework, assignment）；工程；項目；計劃；任務。
3. awful 糟糕的；terrific 特別棒的，好極了（口語中）；可怕的，恐怖的（閱讀中）。
4. I can tell that. 我能看得出。
5. I understand that... 我聽說……。
6. I have got this one.
have= have got
have to= have got to (gotta)
7. must 在口語中表猜測
8. I'll take this one. 我要買這個。
9. I won't buy that. = I won't believe that. 我才不信呢。
10. He was my boyfriend.

三、考題內(nèi)容：生活情景，場景會話

場景題：如何出考題；判斷場景的線索詞。
比如：book，校內(nèi)library；校外book store（線索詞manager, order）。

四、解題思路

比如：
交通：traffic jam
車：break down
題目分析：Section A為重點（主要為三種題型）
（一）but題型：but以后是重點。
