第一篇：英語四級聽力短篇新聞

英語四級聽力短篇新聞

1.六級考試在09年和10年都曾經(jīng)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(wǎng)站，但是預(yù)計(jì)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170~190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(nèi)容，語速一定遠(yuǎn)低于此。預(yù)計(jì)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 Uganda’s capital.原文：

Kenyan police say one person was killed and 26 injured in(Q1)an explosion at a bus station in central Nairobi.肯尼亞警方表示，內(nèi)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(nèi)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(nèi)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(xué)過或者見過;

8.一般說來，數(shù)據(jù)和災(zāi)難新聞，是各種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(jìn)步。

10.很多困難，都是因?yàn)槲覀冾A(yù)設(shè)為：此事很難，或，此事肯定很難，而導(dǎo)致我們沒有開始。聽新聞也是一樣，其實(shí)，開始了第一步，后面的可能性就非常大了。

Step 1新四級聽力新聞的應(yīng)對策略（1）聽力考題大綱（2016年起已改革）

全國大學(xué)英語四、六級考試委員會自2016年6月考試起將對四、六級考試的聽力試題作局部調(diào)整。

四級聽力部分各項(xiàng)占比：短篇新聞7%，長對話8%，聽力篇章20%。

1）四級（Listening Conversations）：

共25題，包括短篇新聞，長對話和聽力篇章。均采用多項(xiàng)選擇題的形式進(jìn)行考核，均朗讀一遍。

短篇新聞：有3段，共7題，每題1分；分值占比7%。

長對話：有2篇，共8題，每題1分；分值占比8%。

聽力篇章：有3篇，共10題，每題2分；分值占比20%。（2）新聞聽力解題思路

四級聽力新聞共三篇，共七道題，每篇長度大約200個單詞，朗讀語速在每分鐘130個詞左右。參考了TEM4考試新聞部分，其長度不大，雖然短小，但是信息量卻很多，新聞聽力需要讓聽眾在短時間里獲得最多的信息，一般將最重要 1 的內(nèi)容放在開頭的第一句，這句話就是新聞的導(dǎo)語，通常包括了如what, when, where, who, why 和how 等新聞事實(shí)。后面的內(nèi)容一般是針對導(dǎo)語的進(jìn)一步展開，所以新聞聽力一般會采用主旨+細(xì)節(jié)的考查方法。通?？疾榈男侣劶?xì)節(jié)包括時間、地點(diǎn)、行為、數(shù)字等方面。

（3）新聞聽力解題思路

1.預(yù)覽選項(xiàng)，推測新聞段落的基本內(nèi)容 2.根據(jù)選項(xiàng)判定題型

新聞聽力一篇兩道題，通常是主旨題和細(xì)節(jié)題。新聞特點(diǎn)主旨題在導(dǎo)語第一句。3.放音時邊聽邊記 4.聽清問題 5.所聽即所得

（4）新聞的題材內(nèi)容

國際政治工業(yè)、農(nóng)業(yè)

文化教育體育衛(wèi)生

法律宗教社會問題

災(zāi)難報(bào)道等

外交 軍事經(jīng)濟(jì)貿(mào)易

必須在平時開始積累。

BBC 和 VOA、CNN、CHINA DAILY改編的新聞節(jié)目，經(jīng)濟(jì)類和環(huán)保類。聽力練習(xí)步驟： 1.做題 2.對答案

3.查閱聽力原文 單詞、短語、定位詞 4.再次做題 5.跟讀

答題關(guān)鍵必須聽清楚 問什么

（6）四大設(shè)題處

1.新聞的首句。新聞命題點(diǎn)常常是新聞報(bào)道中所說到的6要素即（what, who, which, where, when, how）,其中又有50%位于導(dǎo)語部分即第一句話，所以每個新聞的第一句話非常重要。

2.新聞的尾句。尾句有時是對新聞做總結(jié)或概述，所以設(shè)題點(diǎn)也可能在新聞的 2

尾句。

3.含有年代，數(shù)量，價格等數(shù)字處。

4.新聞材料的列舉處。地區(qū)，改革，相關(guān)人物等信息的例舉處往往是新聞的設(shè)題重點(diǎn)，而且往往是Except, Not, Incorrect等題型的首選。

1.主旨題——導(dǎo)語掌握法

主旨題是每年的新聞聽力考試題型中定會出現(xiàn)的一類題型。題目經(jīng)常以What is the main idea of the news?／What does the news item mainly report?的形式出現(xiàn)。根據(jù)新聞的結(jié)構(gòu)特點(diǎn)，常使用倒金字塔結(jié)構(gòu)（重點(diǎn)在前）。因此，在主旨題中，考生只要能夠聽懂導(dǎo)語的表述，就能夠很好地把握主旨題。2． 細(xì)節(jié)題——問題答案合并法

此類題在新聞題中占比例較高。同學(xué)都感慨聽新聞時太多細(xì)節(jié)，因此很難選出正確答案。細(xì)節(jié)題的關(guān)鍵不在于你能夠聽到多少的細(xì)節(jié)，而在于你能否找到題目的題點(diǎn)。對于此種題型的應(yīng)試策略為：首先找到題目中的關(guān)鍵詞或者短語，在聽材料的過程中能夠增加對問題的敏感度,以便更容易聽到題點(diǎn)；之后，便可用問題答案合并法，即問題與答案出現(xiàn)在同一個句子中，很容易找到正解。3．推理題一句式句意轉(zhuǎn)換法

推理題一向是各種題型中最難的一類，一般不能直接聽到答案，而需要對新聞中的某句話進(jìn)行句式或句意上的轉(zhuǎn)換。對于此類題型，可以參照細(xì)節(jié)題的方法，同樣先找出題目中的關(guān)鍵詞，在新聞中聽到考點(diǎn)后迅速進(jìn)行句式或句意上的轉(zhuǎn)換，再找出答案。

4、對錯判斷題——細(xì)節(jié)答案對應(yīng)法

對錯判斷題同樣是新聞中出現(xiàn)頻率較高的題型，實(shí)際上也是一種細(xì)節(jié)題，只是要求學(xué)生對答案中的多個細(xì)節(jié)加以判斷。對于此類題型，采用最多的是細(xì)節(jié)答案對應(yīng)法，即在聽新聞材料的過程中，聽到題點(diǎn)，迅速找到對應(yīng)的選項(xiàng)并要求做出對錯判斷。

Step Two 造成新聞聽力得分低的原因

1.對時事關(guān)注度不夠

新聞反映的是社會各個方面的信息，含括政治、經(jīng)濟(jì)、軍事、文化、體育和自然災(zāi)害等,這就要求考生在各個領(lǐng)域都要有一定的常識。

2.對新聞詞匯的不了解

新聞中的詞匯多是正式的書面用詞。其次，由于新聞的內(nèi)容常與時事相關(guān)，因此 3

會出現(xiàn)很多各個領(lǐng)域的專業(yè)用語。如:parliament（議會，國會），civilian（平民），hostage(人質(zhì))等。

此外，新聞中的人名地名也會給考生造成很大的困惑。3.對新聞的文體和句法結(jié)構(gòu)的不適應(yīng)

新聞文體常使用倒金字塔結(jié)構(gòu)，是指在新聞報(bào)道中把最重要的新聞事實(shí)放在整個報(bào)導(dǎo)的開頭，稱為導(dǎo)語；把次要的新聞事實(shí)放在導(dǎo)語之后；把最不重要的新聞事實(shí)放在整個報(bào)導(dǎo)的末尾。導(dǎo)語部分是整個新聞報(bào)道的精華，是對整個新聞報(bào)道的概括。往往在導(dǎo)語中便交代了時間、地點(diǎn)、人物、事件，有時還有原因，即常說的5 個“wh-”

4.對常速新聞?wù)Z速的不習(xí)慣

新聞強(qiáng)調(diào)及時、迅速。語速比日常英語的語速快得多，且只放一遍，考生往往感覺還沒有抓住什么新聞就播完了

Step Three新聞聽力技巧

a.瀏覽題目，根據(jù)選項(xiàng)猜題意，從而縮小范圍。

b.集中精神，注意新聞的第一句話。新聞報(bào)道的開頭第一句話一般是對整個報(bào)道的一個概括。

c.抓住句子主干，再長的句子也有主謂賓——精聽

d.詳略得當(dāng)，聽到個別專用名詞，如人名、國名地名、組織機(jī)構(gòu)名等，不要糾結(jié)于此，以免忽略后面的內(nèi)容

總結(jié)

1.多做精聽，聽出句子的主干部分。

2.要特別注重新聞報(bào)道的第一句話。

3.擴(kuò)大詞匯量。

4.掌握一些基本縮略語。

5.注意數(shù)字的不同說法。

6.循序漸進(jìn)，由易到難。

7.要密切注意國內(nèi)外形勢的變化。

Step Four Listening of News practice

一、短篇新聞

Directions: In this section, you will hear 16 news reports.At the end of each news report, you will hear two or three questions.Both the news report and the questions will be spoken only once.After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C)and D).Questions 1 and 2 will be based on the following news item.The Philippines government says it evacuated 700,000 people from their homes as Typhoon Melor approaches.The storm arrived on Samar Island on Monday with 185-kilometer per hour winds.Forecasters say Melor is expected to bring ocean waves as high as four meters along with heavy rain, flooding and landslides.Up to 600,000 residents left the Albay province over concerns about landslides.Flights were cancelled and hundreds of fishing boats ordered to stay home.Typhoon Haiyan hit the Philippines two years ago, killing more than 7,000

people.So far, no deaths have been reported.But strong winds tore roofs from buildings and knocked down trees.The weather forecasting service Accuweather reports the typhoon is more compact than others that affect that part of the world.That will reduce the damage the typhoon causes as it moves toward the South China Sea.The storm should become less intense throughout the week but central Philippines could receive up to 300 millimeters of rain, while Manila will receive about half that amount.1.When did the storm arrive on Samar Island?

2.How much rain could central Philippines receive even though the storm should become less tense throughout the week?

Questions 3 to 5 will be based on the following news item.Sultan Aziz Ezam worked at radio stations in Afghanistan’s eastern Nangarhar province for nearly 10 years.Now, the broadcaster is reportedly the voice of the Islamic State’s new “caliphate radio”.VOA could not confirm the identity of the Islamic State radio announcer.However, local media workers recognize the voice as Ezam’s.Ezam’s former coworkers said he used to report on land issues for radio stations in the area.Now, they say he is issuing death threats from the Islamic State.Some of those threats target his former coworkers.The announcer said on IS radio, “I know the addresses of houses of all those journalists who are working with different media organizations.”

Afghan journalists said they are worried about the threats.About 50 reporters work for local and international news organizations in Nangarhar province.Afghan journalists told VOA that Ezam and his brother recently left their jobs at a local radio station.They said no one had heard from Ezam until they heard his voice on Islamic State broadcasts.Afghan government officials said they are aware of the threats against journalists.The officials also said the Islamic State radio station has not been taken off the air because of technical reasons.FM radio broadcasts by IS started recently along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border.The two-hour broadcast includes Quran readings and anti-government propaganda.Both the Afghan and Pakistani governments say they are looking for the broadcasters.They believe the signal is coming from a mobile transmitter in the mountains.3.What did Ezam use to report on according to his former coworkers? 4.How many reporters work for local and international news organizations in

Nangarhar province? 5.Why, according to the officials, hasn’t the Islamic State radio station been taken off the air ?

Questions 6 to 8 will be based on the following news item.Floods and landslides in the Chin region of Myanmar displaced thousands of people this summer, but recovery has just begun.Almost 20,000 people were displaced by severe weather in western Myanmar, formerly known as Burma, say relief groups.Locals called the heavy rains of July the worst natural disaster in memory.Towns and villages across the region were destroyed.Months after the landslides, roads in the capital of Chin state, Hakha, have been cleared.But in the rural areas, aid is hard to find.Many of the emergency supplies sent to help Chin state had to pass through many flooded towns and villages.Supplies ran out before arriving in Chin.Peter Brimble, a development official for Myanmar, said Chin’s location hurt recovery efforts.“It’s tough to get in, and it’s tough to get out.… That causes a challenge … to get materials in and out to rebuild damaged assets,” Brimble said.Another strategy to help people recover is moving them.The Myanmar government is spending about $3 million dollars to relocate residents.Critics have two objections.The first is that contracts to rebuild will go to friends of favored officials.The second is that rebuilding will be rushed and low quality.Outside of Hakha, 700 new homes are being built.Inspectors have complained that this group of homes is in a remote location.Those waiting to move into the homes have been living in camps for nearly five months.6.What is the news about? 7.How many people were displaced by severe weather in western Myanmar? 8.Why do critics object to the government’s relocating strategy?

Questions 9 and 10 will be based on the following news item.In France, an anti-immigrant political party has lost regional elections.The National Front had led in at least six of the country’s 13 regions in the first part of elections last week.But early results of the second round of elections show the Republican party of former President Nicolas Sarkozy and his center-right allies leading in seven regions.The governing Socialist and other leftist parties have won in at least five.The National Front has gained support in recent years, namely in local elections in March and in European Union elections last year.The terrorist attack in Paris last month was another factor.The party wants France to leave the European Union and strengthen security.It also wants immigrants and those seeking asylum to be removed from the country.9．What is the news report mainly about? 10.What is true about the National Front according to the news report?

Questions 11 to 13 will be based on the following news item.Eleven Taliban fighters attacked an important airport in southern Afghanistan early Tuesday, killing at least 50 people, Afghan officials say.The Afghan Defense Ministry said 38 civilians, 10 soldiers and two police officers were killed.The attack on the Kandahar Air Fieldlasted 20 hours, reported the Washington Post華盛頓郵報(bào).Among the dead were women and children, the newspaper wrote.The airport includes a military base with troops from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, or NATO.There were no reports that NATO troops were killed or injured in the attack.A spokesman for the Taliban says fighters entered the base and attacked local and foreign military troops.He said more than 150 soldiers were killed in the attack.The Taliban often makes claims about the results of their attacks that are not true.Taliban attacks have grown in number and strength in Afghanistan this year after the withdrawal last year of combat troops from other countries.11.Where did eleven Taliban fighters attack early Tuesday according to the news report? 12.Who were killed in the Taliban attack according to the Afghan Defense Ministry? 13.What is the result of the withdrawal last year of combat troops from other countries?

Questions 14 to 16 will be based on the following news item.Fourteen people were killed and hundreds were wounded during an attempt to overthrow the government of Burkina Faso in September.One of those wounded was Safiatou Ouedraogo.She was days away from giving birth, and she was shot in the abdomen.Ouedraogo was washing her clothes when she was shot.“I heard some loud noises, and I thought it was just kids playing.Next thing I know something hit my stomach.I stood up, but nothing fell off my lap.I looked to the ground to check, but I saw nothing there either, so I looked at my stomach and realized that whatever hit me had gone deep into my stomach.”

She was immediately brought to a Catholic Church hospital in the capital, Ouagadougou.The bullet hit the baby.She was cared for by Dr.Aicha Sana and her colleagues.“When she arrived here, she was not in labor and she was also conscious.When we did some exams we saw that the bullet had crossed through the uterus子宮.Since she was not in labor we decided to do a C-section to deliver the baby.”

The baby was not seriously hurt.Once she was out of the womb子宮, she started crying.The baby girl has been named Boinzimwende.It means “God is above all” in the

Mossi language.14.How many people were killed and wounded during the attempt to overthrow the government of Burkina Faso in September? 15.What was Ouedraogo doing when she was shot? 16.What does Boinzimwende, the baby girl’s name, mean in the Mossi language?

Questions 17 to 19 will be based on the following news item.Prosecutors in the U.S.state of Pennsylvania have brought criminal charges against celebrity Bill Cosby.Cosby, an American comedian is charged with sexually assaulting a woman in 2004.The case deals with a former Temple University employee who told police that Cosby drugged and violated her at his home near Philadelphia.It marks the first criminal case involving Cosby, after many years of accusations.If he is found guilty, he could face up to 10 years in prison and a $25,000 fine.An arrest warrant for the 78-year-old Cosby has been issued.More than 50 women have accused Cosby of drugging them, and in most cases, sexually assaulting them.Cosby has long denied the accusations.Many of the incidents happened several decades ago, and the statute of limitations has already passed.A statute of limitations is a law that prevents a suspect from being tried after a certain amount of time has passed.The statute of limitations in the Pennsylvania case was to expire in January 2016.Bill Cosby is best known for playing Dr.Cliff Huxtable, the father in the long-running American television program, “The Cosby Show.”The Cosby Show The charges have shocked Cosby’s fans and damaged his reputation as an entertainer.17.What is the news report mainly about? 18.What could Bill Cosby face if he is found guilty? 19.What is Bill Cosby best known for?

Questions 20 to 22 will be based on the following news item.The International Football Association’s ethics committee banned its president, Sepp Blatter, from the organization for eight years on Monday.The association is known as FIFA.Also getting an eight-year ban was Michel Platini, the head of the European soccer federation, UEFA.The ruling came because of a $2 million payment from FIFA to Platini in 2011.The two men called it salary for advising the president.But according to the Associated Press news service美聯(lián)社新聞社，, Platini had no such contract with FIFA at the time.The payment is also being investigated by authorities in Switzerland.Blatter was already serving a provisional ban臨時禁令 over the scandal earlier this year when 14 FIFA officials were arrested on corruption charges.The organization will elect a new president in February.For many years, it was anticipated that Platini would take over for Blatter.That is not likely after the news of his eight-year ban.Also, Platini is not on the list of candidates for the upcoming election.Blatter promised to fight the ban in the Court of Arbitration for Sport.He denied doing anything wrong by authorizing payments to Platini, calling the lack of a contract an administrative error.Blatter said “I am now suspended eight years, suspended eight years.But, I will fight.I will fight for me and I will fight for FIFA.”

Blatter has been the president of FIFA since 1998.20.Who did the International Football Association’s ethics committee ban from the organization for eight years? 21.When was Blatter already serving a provisional ban over the scandal earlier this year? 22.When did Blatter become the president of FIFA?

Questions 23 and 24 will be based on the following news item.Burundi officials say refugees who fled to neighboring Rwanda are being asked now to fight against their homeland.An adviser to Burundi’s president told Voice of America that Burundi has proof that the refugees were recruited into armed groups.Adviser Willy Nyamitwe says some of the recruits are children.“We have evidence that people are being trained in Rwanda,” he said.“Some persons … have been caught by the army.They revealed that they have been trained in Rwanda.”
