M: Why don’t you just go to the ticket window and ask? Q: What does the man suggest the woman do?
12.W: I really enjoyed the TV special about drafts last night.Did you get home in time to see it? W: Oh, yes, but I wish I could have stayed awake long enough to see the whole thing.Q: What does the man mean?
13.W: Airport, please.I’m running a little late.So just take the fastest way even if it’s not the most direct.M: Sure, but there is a lot of traffic everywhere today because of the football game.Q: What do we learn about the woman from the conversation?
14.W: May I make a recommendation, sir? Our seafood with this special sauce is very good.M: Thank you, but I don’t eat shellfish.I’m allergic to it.Q: Where does this conversation most probably take place?
15.W: now one more question if you don’t mind, what position in the company appeals to you most?
M: Well, I’d like the position of sales manager if that position is still vacant.Q: What do we learn about the man?
16.M: I don’t think I want to live in the dormitory next year.I need more privacy.W: I know what you mean.But check out the cost if renting an apartment first.I won’t be surprised if you change your mind.Q: What does the woman imply?

Long Conversation
Conversation One
M: When I say I live in Sweden, people always want to know about the seasons.W: The seasons?
M: Yeah, you know how cold it is in winter? What is it like when the days are so short? W: So what is it like?
M: Well, it is cold ,very cold in winter.Sometimes it is cold as 26 degrees below centigrade.And of course when you go out, you’ll wrap up warm.But inside in the houses it’s always very warm, much warmer than at home.Swedish people always complain that when they visit England, the houses are cold even in the good winter.W: And what about the darkness? M: Well, yeah, around Christmas time there’s only one hour of daylight, so you really looks forward to the spring.It is sometimes a bit depressing.But you see the summers are amazing, from May to July in the North of Sweden the sun never sets.It’s still light in the midnight.You can walk in the mountains and read a newspaper.W: Oh, yeah, the land of the midnight sun.M: Yeah, that’s right, but it’s wonderful.You won’t stay up all night.And the Swedes makes most of it often they started work earlier in summer and then leave at about 2 or 3 in the afternoon, so that they can really enjoy the long summer evenings.They’d like to work hard, but play hard, too.I think Londoners work longer hours, but I’m not sure this is a good thing.Q19: What do we learn about the man from the conversation?
Q20: What do Swedish people complain about when they visit England in winter? Q21: How does the man describe the short hour of daylight around Christmas in Sweden? Q21: What does the man say about the Swedish people?

第三篇:德語四級考試聽力試題解析
法亞小語種德語四級考試聽力試題解析
大學德語四級考試中,聽力部分所占比例并不大,僅為15分,但因為這一部分是四級考試的第一項內容,很多考生可能會因此影響后面答題的心情,所以這一部分也尤為重要。
客觀地說,聽力的訓練是一個長期的過程,而且和外語學習的其他幾種基本能力(說、讀、寫)密不可分,因此若想從根本上提高自己的聽力能力,須多“管”齊下,不可厚此薄彼。在學習外語時,尤其在初始階段,讀準單詞(注意重音)、多作聽寫練習、強記一些表達(包括對話、短篇)、并與自己的生活實際相聯系是至關重要的。
而單純從應試角度出發,也并不是無規律所循,因為試題的編寫及選擇也是基于一定原則,試題編撰人員也是從某種考慮出發來命題的,例如是想考查學生的語言知識、還是他們的背景知識,或者需要學生具有一定的生活常識。以下是對大學德語四級考試聽力部分的分析及考生進行應試時所應具備的一些基本技巧,或者說考生應該留意的細節。考試內容與形式
在15分鐘內,考生須完成兩部分(A節和B節)共15道“四選一”的題目,每題1分。其中A節計10題,為10組內容獨立的短對話;B節計5題,為兩篇情節較為簡單的短文。語速為100個單詞/分鐘,較緩慢,而且每組對話、每篇短文均讀兩遍。
應試注意事項及技巧
1.擺正心態。既堅信一分耕耘、一分收獲,即堅信自己平時的付出定會在考試中有所體現;又要有大將風范、不患得患失,即有全局意
法亞小語種識,不在某一題上駐足過久,實在難以確定答案,就選出你認為最為合適的一個答案,尤其忌諱下面邊做邊想。平時模擬訓練時就應養成良好的答題習慣,注意速度。
2. 考前稍做準備練習。一般可以在考前聽一些簡單的德語磁帶,以期進入語境,但不要太多。當然,此項內容因人而異,也可略去。
3. 充分利用考場上空隙,一些題目爭取“先睹為快”。例如發下考卷,即可迅速瀏覽A節題目;每完成一題,即閱讀下個題目;或當磁帶中朗讀相關(B節)指令時,瀏覽(B節)題目,先有個大概的了解。
4. 閱讀選擇項時進行相關的聯想。一般情況下,選擇項內容從表達形式上不大會和原文一字不差,但卻有著千絲萬縷的聯系,因而以合適的聯想去接收語音信號,進而印證自己的聯想是常用的方法。
5. 適當的筆錄。尤其對于數據型題目,要善于進行筆錄。在某題毫無頭緒時,也可以在第一遍放音后,先把聽到的較為關鍵、但不理解的語音信號轉變為文字,注解在該題旁邊,并在自己的詞庫中飛速搜索,猜出意思,并在第二遍放音時進行核實。

Section B Passage One One of the greatest heartbreaks for fire fighters occurs when they fail to rescue a child from a burning building because the child, frightened by smoke and noise, hides under a bed or in a closet and is later found dead.Saddest of all is when children catch a glimpse of the masked fire fighter but hide because they think they have seen a monster.To prevent such tragedies, fire fighter Eric Velez gives talks to children in his community, explaining that they should never hide during a fire.He displays fire fighters’ equipment, including the oxygen mask, which he encourages his listeners to play with and put on.“If you see us,” Velez tells them, “don’t hide!We are not monsters.We have come to rescue you.” Velez gives his presentations in English and Spanish.Growing up in San Francisco, he learnt Spanish from his immigrant parents.Velez and other fire fighters throughout North America, who give similar presentations, will never know how many lives they save through their talks.But it’s a fact that informative speaking saves lives.For example, several months after listening to an informative speech, Pete Gentry in North Carolina rescued his brother who is choking on food, by using the method taught by student speaker, Julie Paris.In addition to saving lives, informative speakers help people learn new skills, solve problems and acquire fascinating facts about the exciting world in which they live.Why do some children trapped in a burning building hide from masked fire fighters? What does the passage tell us about fire fighter Eric Velez? What do we learn about Pete Gentry? What message is the speaker trying to convey?
Passage Two Some people want to make and save a lot of money in order to retire early.I see people pursuing higher paying and increasingly demanding careers to accomplish this goal.They make many personal sacrifices in exchange for income today.The problem is that tomorrow might not come.Even if it all goes according to plan, will you know how to be happy when you are not working if you spend your entire life making money? More importantly, who will be around for you to share your leisure time with? At the other extreme are people who live only for today.Why bother saving when I might not be here tomorrow, they argue.The danger of this approach is that tomorrow may come after all.And most people don't want to spend all their tomorrows working for a living.The earlier neglect of saving, however, makes it difficult not to work when you are older.You maybe surprise to hear me say that if you must pick an extreme I think it's better to pick the spend-all approach.As long as you don't mind continuing to work, assuming your health allows, you should be OK.At least, you are making use of your money, and hopefully deriving value and pleasure from it.Postponing doing what you love and being with people you love until retirement can be a mistake.It may never come.Retirement can be a great time for some people.For others, it is a time of boredom, loneliness and poor health.Why do some people pursue higher paying but demanding careers?
What is the danger facing people who live only for today?
What does the speaker seem to advocate?
Passage Three Imagine that someone in your neighborhood broke the law, and the judge put the whole neighborhood under suspicion.How fair will that be? Well, it happens everyday to high schoolers.Just because some students have stolen things in shops, all of us are treated like thieves.Even though I’d never steal.Store employees looked at me like I’m some kind of hardened criminal.For example, during one lunch period, my friend Denny and I went to the Graben Gore Restaurant to have a hot dog.We arrived to find a line of students waiting outside.A new sign in the window told the story.“No more than two students at a time”.After 15 minutes, we finally got in.But the store manger laid the evil eye on us.I asked him about the new sign, and he said, “You kids are stealing too much stuff.” You kids? Too much stuff? We were not only assumed to be thieves, but brilliant, greedy thieves.The most annoying thing though, is the way employees watched my friends and me.It’s horrible.Once, at a drug store, I was looking around and found a guy standing on a large box, stocking the shelves.He was watching my hands, more than he was watching his own.I showed him that my hands were empty.He got down off his box and rushed off, as if he was going to get the store manger.How crazy is that!
33.What does the speaker find to be unfair?
34.What measure did the Graben Gore Restaurant take to stop stealing?
35.What happened in a drug store that greatly annoyed the speaker Section C Writing keeps us in touch with other people.We write to communicate with relatives and friends.We write to preserve our family histories so our children and grandchildren can learn and appreciate their heritage.With computers and Internet connections in so many households, colleges, and businesses, people are e-mailing friends and relatives all the time--or talking to them in writing in online chat rooms.It is cheaper than calling long distance, and a lot more convenient than waiting until Sunday for the telephone rates to drop.Students are e-mailing their professors to receive and discuss their classroom assignments and to submit them.They are e-mailing classmates to discuss and collaborate on homework.They are also sharing information about concerts and sports events, as well as jokes and their philosophies of life.Despite the growing importance of computers, however, there will always be a place and need for the personal letter.A hand-written note to a friend or a family member is the best way to communicate important thoughts.No matter what the content of the message, its real point is, “I want you to know that I care about you.” This writing practice brings rewards that can’t be seen in bank accounts, but only in the success of human relationships.Section A短對話答案
11.A)The man should visit the museums.B)She can’t stand the hot weather.C)The beach resort is a good choice.D)She enjoys staying in Washington.答案:D 解析:Woman最后說到I’ll be happy here no matter what the temperature.這表明了她待在這里很愉快,很享受待在華盛頓,故選D。

Section A長對話答案
19.What do we learn about the woman? 【答案】D She was a witness to the crime.【解析】文中男士需要女士描述一下搶劫銀行的人(describe the man who robbed the bank)。選項中B提到了robbery,但是對話中沒有說明女士是受害者(victim);D選項提到了她目擊了某個犯罪經過,robbery顯然是crime的一種。
20.What did the suspect look like? 【答案】A A tall man with dark hair and a moustache.【解析】原文中提到The man was tall, six foot, and he had dark hair, and he had moustache.,對應選項A。
21.What did the man finally asked the woman to do? 【答案】A Identify the suspect from pictures.【解析】對話結尾處,男士要求女士look at some photographs,很顯然,他的目的是讓女士通過照片來辨別嫌疑人。因此選擇A。
22.How did the woman get to know about the job vacancy? 【答案】A By reading a newspaper ad.【解析】 job vacancy指空缺的職位。在對話一開始,女士就說到她的目的:I’m calling about the job that was in the paper last night.從這句話中可以看出她得知職位信息的來源是the paper last night,對應A選項。23.Why did the woman find the job appealing? 【答案】B She could work close to her family.【解析】本題關鍵詞是appealing,意為引起興趣的。女士提到她喜歡這份工作的原因是be near to the family.,close是near的同義替換詞,因此選擇B選項。
24.What had the woman been doing in Geneva? 【答案】C Working as a secretary.【解析】女士提到她在日內瓦做了一些secretarial work,也就是選項C中的secretary。雖然她也提到之前在大學學習,但是她取得的學位是a degree in English,而非選項D中的a degree in French.25.What was the woman asked to do in the end? 【答案】C Send in a written application as soon as possible.【解析】對話中女士希望得到面試機會,但是男士要求先要遞交書面申請(reply a writing to the advertisement),并不是所有人都能得到面試機會,因此選擇答案C。
Section B第一篇答案 Why do some children trapped in a burning building hide from masked fire fighters? 【解析】D)They mistake the firefighters for monsters.細節題,從開始when children catch a glimpse of the masked fire fighter but hide because they think they have seen a monster一句中便可得出因為不熟悉消防人員戴面具的形象,孩子們以為來救援的消防人員是怪獸,所以躲起來。所以選D。其他選項文中都沒有涉及到。What does the passage tell us about fire fighter Eric Velez? 【解析】B)He often teaches children what to do during a fire.本篇文章大篇幅講的是Eric Velez給社區里的孩子講解消防知識,讓他們熟悉消防人員及消防工具的過程。選項A,put out fire雖然是Eric Velez的工作,但是本文重點不是在其消防員救活這個工作上,C、D選項很容易就可以排除。所以選B。What do we learn about Pete Gentry? 【解析】A)He saved the life of his brother choking on food.細節題,從Pete Gentry in North Carolina rescued his brother who is choking on food一句便可得出答案,文章中關于Pete Gentry的主要信息就是他救了噎著食物的弟弟。所以選A。做題時一定要把人名及其所做的事準確對應起來。What message is the speaker trying to convey? 【解析】D)Informative speeches can save lives.主旨題,本文舉了一個大例子,一下小例子來證明教育性的演說有救人性命的好處。雖然在文章最后也列舉了下其他好處,但是主旨還是拯救生命。所以選D。其他幾個選項都主要講細節處,很容易就可以排除。
聽力答案及解析(SecB 第二篇)
聽力文章分析: 本篇聽力講述的是截然不同的兩種生活態度,一種是“make and save a lot of money in order to retire early”,另一種則是“live only for today”,作者在陳述兩種不同態度之后,針對兩種態度給出了自己的看法“it's better to pick the spend-all approach”。本篇聽力不是太難,沒有較難的詞匯,雖然有幾個需要注意的句式,如:“At the other extreme are people who live only for today.Why bother saving… ”等,但是通過上下文也是不難理解的,而且結構也比較清楚,基本上可以分為三部分:兩種不同的態度和作者的觀點,所考察的三道題也上針對了這三個主要的點。由此可見,聽聽力的時候依然首先要從全文來把握,把握文章的要點,在把握要點的基礎上,有重點的去聽一些細節,如與要點相關的原因和后果,以及作者本人對這些事情的看法,遇到與此相關的信號詞或者關鍵詞時就一定要注意重點記憶。
答案及解析: C)To make money for early retirement.本題考察原因,問為什么人們喜歡比較苛求但收入較高的工作,其實聽力一開始就用in order to 給出了原因,即:retire early,所以選C項。
A)They may have to continue to work in old age.本題考察后果,問只為當下而活的人面臨著什么危險,從“The earlier neglect of saving, however, makes it difficult not to work when you are older.”中可以看出A是正確選項,及在年老時有可能不得不繼續工作。
B)Enjoying yourself while you can.本課考察文章作者的態度,從 “Postponing doing what you love and being with people you love until retirement can be a mistake.”中可以看出,作者認為想等到退休后再做自己想做的事情以及和自己喜歡的人在一起可能是一種錯誤,所以選B,即趁著自己還可以的時候要懂得享受生活
2010年12月四級聽力篇章難度與以往持平,沒有太大的提高或降低,文字長度依舊是250字左右,題材是記敘文和說明文,介紹人物故事和社會生活。解題方法可以采用取頭取尾地方法,運用這個技巧我們可以成功解決多道題目。
第一篇記敘文介紹了一位消防員的故事,他為社區的兒童做了一個講座,告訴他們在大火中看到消防員一定要出來,而不要找角落里躲避起來。這篇文章的大意可以再開頭第一句“One of the greatest heartbreaks for firefighters occurs when they fail to rescue a child from a burning building because the child, frightened by the smoke and noise, hides under a bed over a closet, and is later found dead”.再結合最后一句話: “In addition to saving lives, informative speakers help people learn new skills, solve problems and acquire fascinating facts about the exciting world in which they live.從這兩句話我們可以順利地得出第26題為什么有些兒童看到消防員會躲起來的答案,也可以得出第29題的答案作者想通過這篇文章的出什么結論。
第二篇說明文介紹社會生活,主題是我們是否應該在年輕的時候拼命工作準備好養老金。開頭第一句話Some people may want to make and save a lot of money in order to retire early.就可以告訴我們這篇文章的話題了。結尾一句話告訴了我們作者提倡的生活態度,Postponing doing what you love and being with people you love until retirement can be a mistake.在這篇文章中作者提出了兩種生活態度,一種是拼命工作積攢養老金,為老年生活做準備。另一種則是活在當下的態度。
第三篇還是記敘文,夾敘夾議。開頭第一句話說Imagine that someone in your neighborhood broke the law and the judge put the whole neighborhood under suspicion, how fair would that be? Well!It happens everyday to high-schoolers.一些高中生犯了錯所有的高中生都會受到懲罰。作者開門見山的提出了一個非常不公平的待遇,這句話即是第33題的答案。結尾作者講述了一個故事,一些高中生偷東西被抓,導致作者自己去商店明明沒有偷東西卻當做做小偷。這個故事即是第35題的答案。
