19、%講座/講話3篇單項選擇題 10題20% 新增講座與講話3篇，此題型與托?？荚囍械腖ecture相似。 每篇Lecture，字數(shù)大約在350-450詞左右。 在四六級考試委員會此次所給出的樣題中，三篇講座/講話文章皆出自于托福試題。難點所在 1. 首先，篇幅方面，新增的Lecture部分，字數(shù)大約在350-450詞左右，相較于短文部分(250詞左右)，篇幅上有了很大的提升，同學們在聽題的過程中，不容易抓住重點不容易抓住重點。 2. 其次，內容方面，話題話題也將不不再是大家熟悉熟悉的校園類、生活類，而將轉變?yōu)楫斍暗纳鐣c當前的社會與經濟問題或是科技發(fā)展經濟問題或是科技發(fā)展。在托?？荚囍?，講座部分

20、還經常會涉及到學科方面，因此整體的詞整體的詞匯表達匯表達對同學而言都相對陌生相對陌生，難度系數(shù)大大增強。應對方法 1. 詞匯積累詞匯積累：除了原本六級聽力高頻詞匯之外，同學們還可以開始對于托福聽力的高頻詞匯進行一定的積累和背誦。 2. 掌握掌握Lecture規(guī)律規(guī)律：同樣作為正式文章，講座/講話的內容邏輯性強，結構清晰。同學們在聽題的過程中，明確內容的邏輯結構，對于提高正確率有很大的幫助。 通常，開篇會進行背景介紹以及話題引入;在正式的內容中，會從當前情況、面臨問題、解決方法、未來展望等方面鋪展開。同學們可以與審題相結合，提高對于文章的把握。應對方法 3. 著手練習著手練習： 由于新增題型源自

21、于托福，因此同學們可以先從較為基礎的托福從較為基礎的托福lecture題目進行題目進行練習，熟悉題型練習，熟悉題型。平時，多收聽收看多收聽收看TED演演講以及國外大學的公開課講以及國外大學的公開課。對于社會與經濟方面的內容，多加關注，注重積累。 長對話不變，依然是兩篇對話，題目增加一道，為了湊分值，以前方法shi 用。 短文去掉一篇，變?yōu)閮善?，題目減少三道，變?yōu)?個題目，難度降低。 新增講座/講話，3篇共10題，這個部分是各位同學比較陌生的，但如果接觸過托福雅思的同學應該不陌生，這兩個國際化考試一直以來都有這么個題型，因此可以看出四六級更加向國際接軌。 基本考察模式就是給你一篇演講或講座稿，字

22、數(shù)為450500詞，334的出題形式，絕大多數(shù)考察的是細節(jié)，由于不像短文部分那種論述性質的文章，因此細節(jié)將會比短文更加難聽出來，會出現(xiàn)些許同義替換，因此這個部分依然是我們之前講過的定位很關鍵，而對于定位詞的敏感度尤為關鍵，但六級語速稍快，因此定位詞如果不熟悉，可能會導致聽不清或被直接跳過。而本次官方給出的樣題全部是托福訓練題目，因此大家在練習的時候可以找托福的lecture部分進行訓練，包括之前的聽寫訓練營也給大家詳細的講過一篇演講最重要的幾個點分別在哪出，后面的免費聽寫班會繼續(xù)深化講解lecture的部分。 本部分重點考察的是大家對于一個講座信息點的捕捉，因此更加傾向于實力的考察，之前一直在

23、強調，聽寫跟讀是提升聽力實力的最根本保障，所有研究聽力考試的人以及口譯員，包括外交部的口譯員的聽力功底都是這么練出來的。因此建議大家，有空的時候多去練習聽寫跟讀，聽寫挑出錯誤，跟讀解決錯誤，提高實力，才能更好的應對本次改革。 多去熟悉新聞詞匯，多去聽正式的英語，才能安全度過本次改革。新聞聽力的10個秘密 1. 六級考試在09年和10年都曾經連續(xù)出現(xiàn)新聞聽力，所以，這不算全新題目; 2. 樣卷的新聞聽力全部來自BBC網站，但是預計在新版題目中，ABC,VOA或CRI的新聞都有可能出現(xiàn); 3. 正常新聞的語速一般為170190詞/分鐘，但是，以舊版專四專八新聞聽力考題為參考，四級聽力的新聞內容，語

24、速一定遠低于此。預計和一般的短文聽力語速并行; 4. 以四級新聞第一題為例： A)Christmas-time attacks made by Somali rebels. B) An explosion at a bus station in central Nairobi. C) The killing of more than 70 Ugandans in Kampala. D) Blasts set off by a Somali group in Ugandas capital. 原文： Kenyan police say one person was killed and 26 i

25、njured in (Q1) an explosion at a bus station in central Nairobi. 肯尼亞警方表示，內羅畢中部一個巴士停車場發(fā)生的爆炸造成1人死亡，26人受傷 你會發(fā)現(xiàn)，視聽一致的神技依然可以使用，而且，似乎變化不大; 5. 在國內聽新聞的第一步，核心不是英語新聞，而是，正在發(fā)生的國內外大事的中文背景，你有所了解，這樣才可以更好的理解英語新聞; 6. 不要總把VOA、BBC掛在嘴邊，聽說的人，比真正聽過的人，多太多; 7. 聽不懂新聞的核心，根本不是聽的問題，而是太多新聞單詞和短語，你根本就沒有學過或者見過; 8. 一般說來，數(shù)據和災難新聞，是各種

26、新聞聽力題目的最愛(死傷人數(shù)什么的); 9. 推薦幾個NEWS APP，有用。China Daily / BBC NEWS/ CRI每天，就是看看推送，也有進步。 10. 很多困難，都是因為我們預設為：此事很難，或，此事肯定很難，而導致我們沒有開始。聽新聞也是一樣，其實，開始了第一步，后面的可能性就非常大了。2016.06起六級聽力改革部分樣題 Section CDirections: In this section, you will hear recordings of lectures or talks followed by some questions.

Moderator:Hello Ladies and Gentleman, it gives me great pleasure to introduce our keynote speaker for todays session,

31、Dr. Howard Miller. Dr. Miller, Professor of Sociology at Washington University, has written numerous articles and books on the issues facing older Americans in our graying society for the past 15 years. Dr. Miller:Thank you for that introduction. Today, Id like to preface my remarks with a story fro

32、m my own life which I feel highlights the common concerns that bring us here together. Several years ago when my grandparents were well into their eighties, they were faced with the reality of no longer being able to adequately care for themselves. My grandfather spoke of his greatest fear, that of

33、leaving the only home they had known for the past 60 years. Fighting back the tears, he spoke proudly of the fact that he had built their home from the ground up, and that he had pounded every nail and laid every brick in the process. The prospect of having to sell their home and give up their indep

34、endence, and move into a retirement home was an extremely painful experience for them. It was, in my grandfathers own words, like having a limb cut off. He exclaimed in a forceful manner that he felt he wasnt important anymore. For them and some older Americans, their so-called “golden years” are at

35、 times not so pleasant, for this period can mean the decline of not only ones health but the loss of identity and self-worth. In many societies, this self-identity is closely related with our social status, occupation, material possessions, or independence. Furthermore, we often live in societies th

36、at value what is “new” or in fashion, and our own usage of words in the English language is often a sign of bad news for older Americans. I mean how would your family react if you came home tonight exclaiming, “Hey, come to the living room and see the OLD black and white TV I brought!” Unfortunately

37、, the word “old” calls to mind images of the need to replace or discard. Now, many of the lectures given at this conference have focused on the issues of pension reform, medical care, and the development of public facilities for senior citizens. And while these are vital issues that must be addresse

38、d, Id like to focus my comments on an important issue that will affect the overall success of the other programs mentioned. This has to do with changing our perspectives on what it means to be a part of this group, and finding meaningful roles the elderly can play and should play in our societies. F

39、irst of all, Id like to talk about . . .questions 16. What does the introduction say about Dr. Howard Millers articles and books?17. What is the greatest fear of Dr. Millers grandfather?18. What does Dr. Miller say the “golden years” can often mean?19. What is the focus of Dr. Millers speech? Now li

40、sten to the following recording and answer questions 20 to 22.20. A) It seriously impacts their physical and mental development.B) It has become a problem affecting global economic growth.C) It is a common problem found in underdeveloped countries.D) It is an issue often overlooked by parents in man

41、y countries. 21. A) They will live longer. B) They get better pay. C) They get along well with people.D) They develop much higher IQs. 22. A) Appropriated funds to promote research of nutrient-rich foods.B) Encouraged breastfeeding for the first six months of a childs life.C) Recruited volunteers to

42、 teach rural people about health and nutrition.D) Targeted hunger-relief programs at pregnant women and young children. The 2010 Global Hunger Index report was released today by the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI). It notes that, in recent years, experts have come to the conclus

43、ion that undernourishment between conception and a childs second birthday can have serious and long-lasting impacts. Undernourishment during this approximately 1,000-day window can seriously check the growth and development of children and render them more likely to get sick and die than well-fed ch

44、ildren. Preventing hunger allows children to develop both physically and mentally. Says IFPRIs Marie Ruel, “They will be more likely to perform well in school. They will stay in school longer. And then at adulthood, IFPRI has actually demonstrated that children who were better nourished have higher

45、wages, by a pretty large margin, by 46 percent.” Ruel says that means the productivity of a nations future generations depends in a large part on the first 1,000 days of life. “This is why were all on board in focusing on those thousand days to improve nutrition. After that, the damage is done and i

46、s highly irreversible.” The data on nutrition and childhood development has been slowly coming together for decades. But Ruel says scientific consensus alone will not solve the problem. “Its not enough that nutritionists know you have to intervene then, if we dont have the politicians on board, and

47、also the.people that implement programs in the field.” Ruel says there are encouraging signs that politicians and implementers are beginning to get on board. Many major donors and the United Nations are targeting hunger-relief programs at pregnant women and young children. They focus on improving di

48、ets or providing micro-food supplements. They improve access to pre-birth care and encourage exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of a childs life. Ruel says in the 1980s Thailand was able to reduce child undernourishment by recruiting a large number of volunteers to travel the countrysi

49、de teaching about health and nutrition. “They really did very active promotion of diversity in the diet and good eating habits. So they were providing more food to people, but also educating people on how to use them, and also educating people on how to feed their young children.” Ruel says countrie

50、s may take different approaches to reducing child undernutrition. But she says nations will not make progress fighting hunger and poverty until they begin to focus on those critical first thousand days. Questions 20. What is the experts conclusion regarding childrens undernourishment in their earlie

51、st days of life?21. What does IFPRIs Marie Ruel say about well-fed children in their adult life?22. What did Thailand do to reduce child undernourishment in the 1980s? Now listen to the following recording and answer questions 23 to 25.23. A) The guaranteed quality of its goods.B) The huge volume of

52、 its annual sales.C) The service it provides to its customers.D) The high value-to-weight ratio of its goods. 24. A) Those having a taste or smell component.B) Products potentially embarrassing to buy.C) Those that require very careful handling.D) Services involving a personal element. 25. A) Those

53、who live in the virtual world.B) Those who have to work long hours.C) Those who are used to online transactions.D) Those who dont mind paying a little more. Id like to look at a vital aspect of e-commerce, and that is the nature of the product or service. There are certain products and services that

54、 are very suitable for selling online, and others that simply dont work. Suitable products generally have a high value-to-weight ratio. Items such as CDs and DVDs are obvious examples. Books, although heavier and so more expensive to post, still have a high enough value-to-weight ratio, as the success of Amazon, which started off selling only books, shows. Laptop computers are another good product for selling online. Digit
