2015年12月19日大学英语四级听力原文及解析
Short Conversations
1. M： Do you remember the wonderful film on space exploration we watched together last month？
W： Sure. It’s actually the most impressive one I’ve seen on that topic.
Q：What do we learn about the speakers？
1.答案：B. They enjoyed the movie on space exploration.
这是一道暗示推断题.暗示推断题之前课上有讲过第一步要看主语是否相同，接下来看动词。
解析：这道短对话考查点在于单词的同义替换，在选项中用movie代替了film，课上的练习也曾经做到过一模一样movie和film的替换题，并且也有强调过。同时在听的过程中说话者明确提到的是have been，证明事情已经发生过.在选择过程中要小心。
2．W： Are you looking for anything in particular?
M： Yes. My son is graduating from high school， and I want to get him something special.
Q：Where does the conversation most probably take place?
2.答案：A. At a gift shop.
解析：这道题为地点场景题。地点场景题要求做到听完对话后选择最贴近语境的选项，考查大家对于场景的掌握.这道题的解题关键在于词组look for表示寻找，graduate以及get.
3. M： Mike told me yesterday that he had been looking in vain for a job in the art gallery.
W： Really？ If I remember right， he had a chance to work there， but he turned it down.
Q：What does the woman say about Mike?
3.答案：C. He declined a job offer from the art gallery.
这是一道暗示推断题，并且考查的是第三者，课上有说过关于主语相同要考虑两种情况，若考查第三者要注意听第二个人。
解析：在本道对话中，涉及到了转折原则，but后面才是重点，女的提到but he turned it down，turn down表示拒绝，说明这件事并没有发生过。
4. W： Would you like to come to Susan’s birthday party tomorrow evening?
M： I’m going to give a lecture tomorrow. I wish I could be in two places at the same time.
Q：What does the man mean?
4.答案：D. He will be unable to attend the birthday party.
这是一道暗示推断题.考查的点在冲刺班上也有提到过，涉及的是虚拟语气的考点。
解析：这道题的解题关键句为I wish I could be in two places at the same time课上有讲过听力中涉及到虚拟语气了答案要取反.这是一句形肯定的句子，但是所要表达的意思是相反的.所以我们应该在选择的时候注意他是不去的。
5. W： Aren’t you discouraged by the slow progress your staff is making?
M： Yes. I think I will give them a deadline and hold them to it.
Q：What is the man probably going to do？
5.答案：B. Set a deadline for the staff to meet.
解析：这道题选项都以动词开头，在看题过程中要考虑意见建议以及 to do考查点，抓住选项中的动词就是解题关键。give them a deadline and hold them to it
6. W： Excuse me. Could you tell me where the visitors’ parking is？ I left my car there.
M： Sure. It’s in Lot C. Over that way.
Q：What does the woman want to know？
6.答案：A. They way to the visitor’s parking.
这是一道暗示推断题.并且选项主语都不一样，课上也讲到过主语都不一样的时候要抓住四个选项的主语，因为主语不同证明归纳总结的重心也不同，我们在听的过程中只要抓住主要的谈话重心即可。
解析：本题解题关键在于单词是否理解，重点词为lot，表示停车场，同时女的也有给大家提示词parking.
7. W： You look great！ Now that you’ve taken those fitness classes.
M： Thanks. I’ve never felt better in my life.
Q：What does the man mean？
7.答案：D. He has benefited from exercise.
这是一道暗示推断题，解题关键点冲刺课上有讲到过，补充给大家了一些殊句型，其中就包括了这种情况。
解析：解题关键句为I’ve never felt better in my life，这是一句形否定意肯定，在最后的课上有提及过这种特殊句型，说过它是一句肯定句，虽然有never出现，但是表达的意思是不能再好了.如果课上有认真记录过整理过在听的过程中就能反应出来。
8. W： I really admire the efficiency of your secretaries.
M： Our company selects only the best. They have a heavy workload and we give them a lot of responsibilities.
Q：What are the speakers talking about?
8.答案：D. The secretaries in the man’s company.
这是一道暗示推断题，同时选项主语都不相同，抓住选项关键主语，听完之后进行归纳选出最贴近的。
解析：女的一开始就提及到了人物secretary，之前课上有说过，第一个说话者往往会揭示主题或者提出问题.男的说的一系列都是对女的说的话进行的解释说明。
短对话总结：在这八道短对话中，共考查了6道暗示推断题，在强化班以及冲刺班上都有强调过短对话中暗示推断是考查大头，需要课后多加练习的。并且主语相同以及主语不同的情况下需要如何抓住关键也着重强调过。这次的题目中还出现了冲刺班讲到的两个考查点，一个是虚拟语气取反的解题关键，以及形否定意肯定的解题关键。
Long Conversations
Conversion 1
W： Hi Leo， why do you say English would become the world language？
M： Well. For one thing， it’s so commonly used， the only language that is used by more people is Chinese.
W： Why is English spoken by so many people？
M： It’s spoken in many countries of the world because of the British empire. And now of course is the influence of America as well.
W： Many students find English a difficult language to learn.
M： Oh， all languages are difficult to learn. But English does have two greatest advantages.
W： What are they？
M： Well， first of all， it has a very international vocabulary. It has many German， Dutch， French， Spanish and Italian words in it. So speakers of those languages will find many familiar words in English. In fact， English has words for many other languages as well.
W： Why is that？
M： Well， partly because English speakers have travelled a lot， they bring back words with them. So English really does have an international vocabulary.
W： And what is the other advantage of English？
M： It that English grammar is really quite easy. For example， it doesn’t have dozens of different endings for its nouns， adjectives and verbs， not like Latin， Russian and German for example.
W： Why is that？
M： Well， it’s quite interesting actually， it’s because of the French. When the French ruled England， French was the official language， and only the common people spoke English.They tried to make their language as simple as possible. So they made the grammar easier.
