六级听力选择题目答题方法点拨

一、基本解题思路

小对话:视听反向原则、同义替换原则。

视听反向原则是指,在小对话的题目中,看似明显被读到的选项反而更容易是错的。但须注意,当小对话原文本身较长或生僻词较多时,该原则可能会出现特例,如03年6月第8题。

同义替换是指,若某一选项中的单词或短语是听力原文中单词或短语的同义形式,则该选项容易为正确。

例题:2002年6月六级考试第4题

A. The woman doesn’t think it a problem to get her passport renewed.

B. The woman has difficulty renewing her passport.

C. The woman hasn’t renewed her passport yet.

D. The woman’s passport is still valid.

原文:

M: Have you run up against any problems in getting the passport renewed?
W: I haven’t started applying yet.
Q: What do we know from the conversation?

解析:可以明显看出,本题的答案为D.其中,另外三项的大部分单词或短语都被读到。”valid”意为“(在一段时间内)有效的”。

例题:2007年6月六级考试第15题

A. More money. B. Fair treatment. C. A college education. D. Shorter work hours.

原文:

W: I hear your boss has a real good impression of you and he is thinking about giving you two more days off each month.
M: I hope not. I’d rather get more work hours so I can get enough bucks to help out my two kids at college.
Q: What does the man truly want?

解析:准确答案A。More money 替换enough bucks,同义替换,听到的慎选。

例题:2008年12月六级考试第16题

A. Fixing some furniture. B. Repairing the toy train.

C. Reading the instructions. D. Assembling the bookcase.

原文:

M: The instructions on the package say that you need to do some assembly yourself. I’ve spent all afternoon trying in vain to put this bookcase together.
W: I know what you mean. Last time I tried to assemble a toy train for my son and I almost gave up.
Q: What does the man find difficult?

解析:准确答案D。assemble 和put...together同义替换,听到部分的慎选。

长对话和短文听力:视听基本一致原则、同义替换原则、特殊词定位原则

视听基本一致的含义是指,若听到的原文和看到的选项基本一致,则选项容易为正确。这一点和小对话的原则恰恰相反,请考生一定注意。

同义替换原则,同小对话。

特殊词定位原则是指,在原文中特殊词(如序数词1st,极端词most、most important、only,逻辑连接词because、since、but、however,以及自问自答的回答部分)后面很可能出现正确答案信息。

例题:2009年6月六级考试第1道长对话:

Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard.

19. A. Current trends in economic development.

B. Domestic issues of general social concern.

D. Conflicts and compromises among political parties.

20. A. Based on the poll of public opinions.

B. By interviewing people who file complaints.

C. By analyzing the domestic and international situation.

D. Based on public expectations and editors’ judgment.

21. A. Underlying rules of editing.

D. Professional qualifications.

答案:BDB

原文:

Long conversation one

W: You’re the editor of Public Eye. What kind of topics does your program cover?

M: Well, there are essentially domestic stories. We don’t cover international stories. We don’t cover party politics or economics. We do issues of general social concern (19题答案,视听基本一致原则)to our British audience. They can be anything from the future of the health service to the way the environment is going downhill.

W: How do you choose the topic? (听到choose the topic,同时看到20题选项by和based on,即可猜到20题是与这个问题关联的)Do you choose one because it’s what the public wants to know about or because it’s what you feel the public ought to know about?

M: I think it’s a mixture of both.(第20题答案,需要简单概括归纳)Sometimes you have a strong feeling that something is important and you want to see it examined and you want to contribute to a public debate. Sometimes people come to you with things they are worried about and they can be quite small things. They can be a story about corruption in local government, something they cannot quite understand, why it doesn’t seem to be working out properly, like they are not having their litter collected properly or the dustbins emptied.

W: How do you know that you’ve got a really successful program? One that is just right for the time?

M: I think you get a sense about it after working in it in a number of years(21题答案,同义替换practical experience). You know which stories are going to get the attention. They are going to be published just the point when the public are concerned about that.

Q19-21

19. What kind of topics does Public Eye cover?

20. How does Public Eye choose its topics?

21. What factor plays an important role in running a successful program?
