六級聽力選擇題目答題方法點撥：
一、基本解題技巧
小對話解題技巧之一：視聽反向原則、同義替換原則。
視聽反向原則是指，在小對話的題目中，看似明顯被讀到的選項反而更容易是錯的。但須注意，當小對話原文本身較長或生僻詞較多時，該原則可能會出現特例。
同義替換是指，若某一選項中的單詞或短語是聽力原文中單詞或短語的同義形式，則該選項容易為正確。
例題：
A) The man failed to keep his promise.
B) The woman has a poor memory.
C) The man borrowed the book from the library.
D) The woman does not need the book any more.
原文：
M: Oh, Im so sorry I forgot to bring along the book you borrowed from the library.
W: What a terrible memory you have! Anyway, I wont need it until Friday night. As long as I can get it by then, OK?
Q: What do we learn from this conversation?
解析：可以明顯看出，本題的答案為A.其中，另外三項的大部分單詞或短語都被讀到。
例題：
A) The printing on her T-shirt has faded.
B) It is not in fashion to have a logo on a T-shirt.
C) She regrets having bought one of the T-shirts.
D) It is not a good idea to buy the T-shirt.
原文：
M: I think Ill get one of those new T-shirts, you know, with the schools logo on both the front and back.
W: Youll regret it. They are expensive, and Ive heard the printing fades easily when you wash them.
Q: What does the woman mean?
解析：準確答案D。其中A和C中都有若干單詞被讀中，聽到的慎選。
例題：
A) The speakers will dress formally for the concert.
B) The man will return home before going to the concert.
C) It is the first time the speakers are attending a concert.
D) The woman is going to buy a new dress for the concert.
原文：
M: Honey, Ill be going straight to the theatre from work this evening. Could you bring my suit and tie along?
W: Sure, its the first performance of the State Symphony Orchestra in our city, so suit and tie is a must.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
解析：準確答案A。容易錯選C，聽到的慎選。正確答案A 中，dress formally和suit and tie同義替換。
小對話解題技巧之二：動作題的處理方式。
選項均以動詞原形或to do形式開頭的題目為動作題。放音時，注意抓情態動詞和建議/請求句型，其中包含的主要動作即為該題答案。
例題：
A) Leave Daisy alone for the time being.
B) Go see Daisy immediately.
C) Apologize to Daisy again by phone.
D) Buy Daisy a new notebook.
原文：
M: Daisy was furious yesterday because I lost her notebook. Should I go see her and apologize to again?
W: Well, if I were you, Id let her cool off a few days before I approach her.
Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?
解析：準確答案A。這是一道動作題，原文中出現建議句型if I were you, Id所以答案即是let her cool off a few days before I approach her的同義替換形式。此題另一難點在于A選項中短語for the time being意思是目前暫時。
長對話和短文聽力解題技巧：視聽基本一致原則、同義替換原則、特殊詞定位原則
視聽基本一致的含義是指，若聽到的原文和看到的選項基本一致，則選項容易為正確。這一點和小對話的原則恰恰相反，請考生一定注意。
同義替換原則，同小對話。
特殊詞定位原則是指，在原文中特殊詞后面很可能出現正確答案信息。

Conversation 1
M: I got two letters this morning with job offers, one from the Polytechnic, and the other from the Language School in Pistoia, Italy.
W: So you are not sure which to go for?
M: Thats it. Of course, the conditions of work are very different: The Polytechnic is offering two-year contract which could be renewed, but the language school is only offering a years contract, and thats a different minus. It could be renewed, but you never know.
W: I see. So its much less secure. But you dont need to think too much about steady jobs when you are only 23.
M: Thats true.
W: What about the salaries?
M: Well, the Pistoia job pays much better in the short term. Ill be getting the equivalent of about ￡22,000 a year there, but only ￡20,000 at the Polytechnic. But then the hours are different. At the Polytechnic Id have to do 35 hours a week, 20 teaching and 15 administrations, whereas the Pistoia school is only asking for 30 hours teaching.
W: Mmm
M: Then the type of teaching is so different. The Polytechnic is all adults and mostly preparation for exams like the Cambridge certificates. The Language School wants me to do a bit of exam preparation, but also quite a lot of work in companies and factories, and a couple of childrens classes. Oh, and a bit of literature teaching.
W: Well, that sounds much more varied and interesting. And Id imagine you would be doing quire a lot of teaching outside the school, and moving around quite a bit.
M: Yes, whereas with the Polytechnic position, Id be stuck in the school all day.
Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard:

Good evening and welcome to tonights edition of Legendary Lives. Our subject this evening is James Dean, actor and hero for the young people of his time. Edward Murray is the author of a new biography of Dean.
W: Good evening, Edward.
M: Hello Tina.
W: Edward, tell us what you know about Deans early life.

W: So how did he get into acting?
M: Well, first he acted in plays at high school, then he went to college in California where he got seriously into acting. In 1951 he moved to New York to do more stage acting.
W: Then when did his movie career really start?
M: 1955. His first starring role was in East of Eden. It was fabulous. Dean became a huge success. But the movie that really made him famous was his second one, Rebel Without a Cause, that was about teenagers who felt like they didnt fit into society.
W: So how many more movies did he make?
M: Just one more, then he died in that car crash in California in 1955.
W: What a tragedy! He only made three movies! So what made him the legend he still is today?
M: Well I guess his looks, his acting ability, his short life, and maybe the type of character he played in his movies. Many young people saw him as a symbol of American youths.

Passage 2
Juan Louis, a junior geology major, decided to give an informative speech about how earthquakes occur. From his audience and analysis he learned that only 2 or 3 of his classmates knew much of anything about geology. Juan realized then that he must present his speech at an elementary level and with a minimum of scientific language. As he prepared the speech, Juan kept asking himself, How can I make this clear and meaningful to someone who knows nothing about earthquakes or geological principles? Since he was speaking in the Midwest, he decided to begin by noting that the most severe earthquake in American history took place not in California or Alaska but at New Madrid, Missouri in 1811. If such an earthquake happened today, it would be felt from the Rocky Mountains to the Atlantic Ocean and would flatten most of the cities in the Mississippi valley. That, he figured, should get his classmates attention. Throughout the body of the speech, Juan dealt only with the basic mechanics of the earthquakes, carefully avoid technical terms. He also prepared visual aids, diagramming photo line, so his classmates wouldnt get confused. To be absolutely safe, Juan asked his roommate, who was not a geology major, to listen to the speech. Stop me, he said, any time I say something you dont understand. Juans roommate stopped him four times. And at each spot, Juan worked out a way to make his point more clearly. Finally, he had a speech that was interesting and perfectly understandable to his audience.
Questions 30 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.
Q30 What did Juan Louis learn from the analysis of his audience?
Q31 How did Juan Louis start his speech?
