A federal appeals court ruled so-called “bulk metadata” collection illegal but did notorder a stop to the program launched in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001,terrorist attacks on the United States. Even before last week’s court decision, some in Congres s were urging reform of domesticspying. “I believe we have to protect our national security, but we also have to protect our civilliberties that make us unique as a country,” Democratic Senator Patrick Leahy said.

全国大学英语四、六级考试改革方案(试行)
全国大学英语四、六级考试改革方案（试行） 教高厅［2005］1号 大学英语教学改革是“高等学校教学质量与教学改革工程”的一项重要内容，2004年，教育部组织制定了《大学英语课程教学要求（试行）》。大学英语四、六级考试（以下简称四、六级考试）改革是大学英语教学改革的重要组成部分。全国大学英语四、六级考试委员会（以下简称考委会）和大学英语四、六级考试改革项目组在广泛听取多方意见的基础上，经过近一年的研究和论证，根据《大学英语课程教学要求（试行）》，制定本方案。 一、四、六级考试改革的指导思想、目标和原则 四、六级考试是为教学服务的标准化考试。考试改革的指导思想是在保持科学性、客观性和公正性的同时，使考试最大限度地对大学英语教学产生正面的导向作用，即：通过改革，引导师生正确处理教学与考试的关系，更合理地使用四、六级考试，使考试更好地为教学服务。考试改革的目标是更准确地测量我国在校大学生的英语综合应用能力，尤其是英语听说能力，以体现社会改革开放对我国大学生英语综合应用能力的要求。改革要按照前瞻性与可行性相结合、分步实施的原则进行，既有近期改革目标，又有中长期规划。 二、四、六级考试改革的措施 （一）全面改革计分体制和成绩报导方式 自2005年6月起，面向所有考生，四、六级考试成绩将采用满分为710分的计分体制，不设及格线；成绩报导方式由考试合格证书改为成绩报告单，即考后向每位考生发放成绩报告单，报导内容包括：总分、单项分等；为使学校理解考试分数的含义并根据各校的实际情况合理使用考试测量的结果，四、六级考试委员会将向学校提供四、六级考试分数的解释。 （二）考试内容改革 按照《大学英语课程教学要求（试行）》修订考试大纲，开发新题型，加大听力理解部分的题量和分值比例，增加快速阅读理解测试，增加非选择性试题的题量和分值比例。试行阶段的四、六级考试内容由四部分构成：听力理解、阅读理解、综合测试和写作测试。听力理解部分的比例提高到35%，其中听力对话占15%，听力短文占20%。听力对话部分包括短对话和长对话的听力理解；听力短文部分包括短文听写和选择题型的短文理解；听力题材选用对话、讲座、广播电视节目等更具真实性的材料。阅读理解部分比例调整为35%，其中仔细阅读部分（Careful Reading）占25%，快速阅读部分（Fast Reading）占10%。仔细阅读部分除测试篇章阅读理解外，还包括对篇章语境中的词汇理解的测试；快速阅读部分测试各种快速阅读技能。综合测试比例为15%，由两部分构成。第一部分为完型填空或改错，占10%；第二部分为短句问答或翻译，占5%。写作能力测试部分比例为15%，体裁包括议论文、说明文、应用文等。试行阶段四、六级考试各部分测试内容、题型和所占分值比例如下表所示：近期内，四、六级考试口语考试仍将与笔试分开实施，继续采用已经实施了五年的面试型的四、六级口语考试（CET-SET）。同时，考委会将积极研究开发计算机化口语测试，以进一步扩大口语考试规模，推动大学英语口语教学。 （三）考务管理体制改革 2005年6月起，教育部考试中心将启用新的四、六级考试报名和考务管理系统，严格认定考生报名资格，加强对考场组织和考风考纪的管理，切实做好考试保密工作。从2006
提高四六级英语听力的六个方法
提高四六级英语听力的六个方法 在扩充词汇时应注意对单词含义有一个较为全面的把握，其中有 个好方法就是通过做真题、分析真题来掌握词汇。这样便可有效避免 望文生义，还有助于考试时结合语境加以理解，从而避免可能的失误。 在阅读部分的材料，大都节选自《华盛顿邮报》、《时代周刊》 等的原文。所以建议大家今后多注重此类英美报刊杂志，以便在长期 阅读中熟悉外刊的行文风格，积累重复率高的单词。真题详解精讲版 里就曾多次提及四级考试中文章的来源和出处，在备考时根据其中的 建议实行广泛阅读，会有非常明显的效果。 首先我在这里告诉大家的是大家在练习口语和背诵的同时，每天 要抽出一定的时间(一般为2?3小时)来练习听力，时间能够按照这样 分配，30%的时间放在精听，你能够采用听写法，这样效果，也能够采 用边对照听力材料原文，仔仔细细逐字听懂攻破。70%的时间实行泛听，能够随心所欲地听一些歌曲，广播，影视，原声读物。我们的听力训 练学习法共有七大步骤，是“齐步走”的谐音。 第一步：要想听懂老外讲话，首先要Maintain your composure and your confidence , 就是说要保持冷静，千万不要因为一处没有 反应过来，就慌了手脚。 第二步：听的过程中要学会根据语言传达的信息Make pictures, 也就是说把抽象的语言变成形象的图画反映于脑海之中，国为相对于 汉语来说，英语表达更加形象化，这样有了图象的协助，就有利于抓 住主干而不是旁支末节，从而听懂重点;听过之后的巩固工作更加重要。 第三步：在听懂的基础上，要Model everything (pronunciation, intonation, tone, slang, idioms, patterns, etc)，也就是说要认 真模仿听力中的各种语言点(包括语音、语调、语气、习语、俚语、句 式等)，不能放过任何细节。
大学英语六级听力技巧介绍
大学英语六级听力技巧介绍 一、英语六级听力材料使用技巧 首先，要有效率的对待历年考试真题。 有的同学盲目地陷入题海战术，在个人做题技巧尚不成熟的时候 海量地做题;做题之后也欠总结，就马上又去做下一套题了。殊不知真 题有限，没有结合技巧的大规模做题会浪费同学们很多考前实战模拟 的机会。还有的同学习惯用真题去"磨耳朵"，即无时不刻地在耳边放 着真题录音。殊不知这样的学习习惯会使得你对于真题音频的敏感度 下降，导致考场上的精神不集中。所以，一定要在了解四六级听力出 题规律、做题技巧的基础上练习真题;做题之后要对于做错的题目反复 思索，找到你和准确答案的"思维差别"。 其次，要在做题之余做到泛听，提升适合纯正英语音频的水平。 一些同学希望在四六级听力考试中得到一个比较理想的分数，那 么提升对于自己的要求、用更具挑战性的音频材料训练自己的耳朵就 是必不可少的一步了。建议给位同学找到一些难度高于四级考试的音 频材料，用这些材料做泛听。当你能够跟得上且听得懂这些材料后， 你再面对四级听力的音频就会很自然地产生一种"以前沧海难为水"的 感觉。各位老师们建议各位参加四级考试的同学们能够试着去泛听六 级的音频材料;参加六级考试的同学们能够找老托福的听力段子，或者 慢速VOA 等等材料来进一步提升自己。当然，所谓"泛听"，也是要讲 究方法和效率的。要将"听"与练习记笔记、练习听写、总结知识点、 跟读模仿等等步骤紧密联系起来，才能使得泛听达到事半功倍的效果。 一言以蔽之，各位考生在备考四六级听力的过程中要善于应用各 种复习材料，善于将练习与各种命题规律、考试技巧以及良好的学习 方法有机的结合起来。只有这样，六级听力才能不再是影响各位考生 通过考试的短板。 二、英语六级听力三大提分技巧
全国大学英语四、六级考试
全国大学英语四、六级考试 改革总方向、目标 为适应我国高等教育新的发展形势,深化教学改革,提高教学质量,满足新时期国家对人才培养的需要,2004年初教育部高教司组织制 定并在全国部分高校开始试点《大学英语课程教学要求（试行）》（以下简称《教学要求》）.《教学要求》规定,大学英语课程的教 学目标是:培养学生的英语综合应用能力,特别是听说能力,使他们在 今后工作和社会交往中能用英语有效地进行口头和书面的信息交流. 自《教学要求》在全国部分院校开始试点以来,广大教师积极参加和 关心这次改革,在教学模式、教学手段和教材使用等各方面做了许多 有益的尝试.参加试点的学生也普遍反映新的教学理念和方法大大提 高了他们学习英语的兴趣,实现了个性化学习,提高了学习的效率. 为此,作为对我国在校大学生英语能力是否达到《教学要求》的 主要鉴定手段的大学英语四、六级考试也必须相应改革,以适应新的 形势,使考试更好地为贯彻《教学要求》服务.在高教司的主持和领 导下,大学英语四、六级考试改革组和考试委员会经过反复研讨和论证,并广泛听取了大学英语第一线教师和学生的意见,制定了《全国 大学英语四、六级考试改革方案（试行）》. 大学英语四、六级考试是一种为教学服务的标准化考试.因此,考试改革的方向是在保持考试的科学性、客观性和公正性的同时,使考 试最大限度地对大学英语教学产生正面的导向作用,即通过四、六级 考试的改革,引导师生正确处理教学与考试的关系,更合理地使用四、六级考试,使考试更好地为教学服务.大学英语四、六级考试改革的 目标是更准确地测量我国在校大学生的英语综合应用能力,尤其是英 语听说能力,以体现社会改革开放对我国大学生英语综合应用能力的 要求.由于大学英语四、六级考试是一个超大规模的标准化考试,因 此考试的改革需前瞻性与可行性相结合,分步实施,既有近期改革目标,又有中长期规划.

大学英语六级听力的完整训练方法 许多考生经历六级考试尤其是听力部分的失败由一回到N回不等。真题也做了很多遍，规律和方法也掌握的差不多，为何还会出现听不懂，听得模糊，太快，不能边听边看等等问题呢？日常规律和科学的训练将大大解决这些问题。 第一部分：六级题目训练的完整步骤 材料来源：为了更好地突破四、六级考试，我们始终认为四、六级真题是最好的训练材料。2006年12月起六级考试进行试卷改革，所以2006年6月起到现在的题目是最需要训练得滚瓜烂熟的题目。若认为题目不够训练，也可以继续做2005年或以前的题目。但是题目时间越早，难度和实效性就越低。 第一步：预判（3-5分钟） 图一给出了我们在做一道听力题目的流程图，我们不难发现，从第一步到第八步，只有15秒的时间，因此，做题前，一定留出时间看题。正式考试时看题时间约3分钟左右，我们只能高效的看而非全面的看。选项中最需要注意的是：高频词、主语、谓语等。同时注意，相似选项和相反选项要保留，准确答案就在其间。复合式听写部分也需要注意高频词汇。 例（小对话）： A.He'd rather not go to the lecture. B. He‘s going to attend the lecture. C. He'll give a lecture on drawing. 2013英语六级考试全攻略考试入门六级词汇六级语法六级听力六级写作六级阅读 D. He doesn't mind if the woman goes to the lecture. 很明显，AB形成对立项。 例（长对话） A. Doubtful B. Reserved C. Indifferent . D. Supportive。

英语六级听力原文完整版(沪江)学习啊
心之所向，所向披靡 学英语简单吗？肯定会有许多学生说：“难死了”。 为什么有好多学生对英语的学习都感到头疼呢？答案只有一个：“不得法。” 英语与汉语一样都是一种语言，为什么你说汉语会如此流利？那是因为你置身于一个汉语环境中，如果你在伦敦呆上半年，保准说起英语来会非常流利。但很多中学生没有很好的英语环境，那么你可以自己设置一个英语环境，坚持“多说”、“多听”、“多读”、“多写”，那么你的英语成绩肯定会很出色。 一、多“说”。 自己多创造机会与英语教师多讲英语，见了同学，尤其是和好朋友在一起时尽量用英语去问候，谈心情……这时候你需随身携带一个英汉互译小词典，遇到生词时查一下这些生词，也不用刻意去记，用的多了，这个单词自然而然就会记住。千万别把学英语当成负担，始终把它当成一件有趣的事情去做。 或许你有机会碰上外国人，你应大胆地上去跟他打招呼，和他谈天气、谈风景、谈学校……只是别问及他的年纪，婚史等私人问题。尽量用一些你学过的词汇，句子去和他谈天说地。不久你会发现与老外聊天要比你与中国人谈英语容易的多。因为他和你交谈时会用许多简单词汇，而且不太看重说法，你只要发音准确，准能顺利地交流下去。只是你必须要有信心，敢于表达自己的思想。 如果没有合适的伙伴也没关系，你可以拿过一本书或其它什么东西做假想对象，对它谈你一天的所见所闻，谈你的快乐，你的悲伤等等，长此坚持下去你的口语肯定会有较大的提高。 二、多“听” 寻找一切可以听英语的机会。别人用英语交谈时，你应该大胆地去参与，多听听各种各样人的发音，男女老少，节奏快的慢的你都应该接触到，如果这样的机会少的话，你可以选择你不知内容的文章去听，这将会对你帮助很大，而你去听学过的课文的磁带，那将会对你的语言语调的学习有很大的帮助。 三、多“读”。 “读”可以分为两种。一种是“默读”。每天给予一定时间的练习将会对你提高阅读速度有很大的好处，读的内容可以是你的课本，但最好是一些有趣的小读物，因为现在的英语高考越来越重视阅读量和阅读速度。每道题的得分都与你的理解程度有很大关系，所以经过高中三年阅读的训练后，你必定会在高考中胜券在握。另一种是“朗读”这是学语言必不可少的一种学习途径。 四、多“写” 有的同学总是抱怨时间紧，根本没时间写作文。其实“写”的形式很多，不一定就写作文才提高写作能力。比如写下你一天中发生的一些重要的事情，或当天学了某一个词组，你可以创设一个语境恰如其份地用上这个词。这样即可帮你记住这个词的用法，又可以锻炼你的写作能力，比如学“wish”一词时，可写一小段如下：
英语六级考试听力小技巧
英语六级考试听力小技巧 英语六级考试听力小技巧 一、放音之前 要有效利用题目选项进行预判断，包括推测题目内容和考查内容。在看选项时，要做到以下三点。 一是竖看，确定相同之处。 二是横看，确定不同之处。 三是找出重复性高的词，这些词一般是与主题相关的词，具有路标的功能。 例如： A)Theymightbestolengoods B)Theymightbefakeproducts C)Theymightbefaultyproducts D)Theymightbesmuggledgood 在这四个选项中，竖看相同点为theymightbe,横看不同点为stolengoods,fakeproducts,faulty products,smuggledgoods. 重复性高的词语为goods,products(产品)。可以推断这道题是 关于产品的。在听的时候就需要注意产品是怎么样的。 二、放音之时 我们在听的时候要注意一下几个原则：
1.顺序原则：注意题目和文章的考点有先后顺序对应的关系。所以我们可以边听边看选项，注意在相关选项后面作上笔记以供参考。 2.注意表示逻辑关系的小词原则： 表示转折和对比的逻辑词： but，however，nevertheless，while，infact，whereas，unexpectedly,unfortunately, yet,except,ontheotherhand,comparedto，unlike，instead，incontrastto等等。 表示因果的逻辑词： asaresult;since，dueto;becauseof;therefore,thus,so 3.强调原则： (1)含义强调 specially，especially，indeed，certainly，only， certainly (2)解释原则： whichis，thatis，whichmeans,thatistosay, (3)举例强调： forexample，forinstance，suchas，illustrate (4)结论强调 aboveall，inshort，inaword,inconclusion，allinall， inbrief (5)重复强调 短文中重复率很高的词或者概念往往就是该短文的主题。
2013年12月全国大学英语六级考试翻译真题(含答案)
试题一：中秋节 中国人自古以来就在中秋时节庆祝丰收，这与北美地区庆祝感恩节的习俗十分相似，过中秋节的习俗与唐代早期在中国各地开始流行，中秋节在农历八月十五，是人们拜月的节日，这天夜晚皓月当空，人们合家团聚，共赏明月。2006年，中秋节被列为中国的文化遗产，2008年又被定为公共假日，月饼被视为中秋节不可或缺的美食，人们将月饼作为礼物馈赠亲友或在家庭聚会上享用。传统的月饼上带有“寿”(longevity)、“福”或“和”等字样。 Since ancient times, the Chinese people usually celebrate harvest in the Mid-Autumn, which is similar to the custom of celebrating Thanksgiving in the North America. The tradition of celebrating Mid-Autumn festival became popular throughout China in the early Tang dynasty. The lunar August 15 is a day for people worshiping the moon. On this day, under the dazzling bright moon, families reunite and enjoy the moon’s beauty. In 2006, Mid-Autumn festival was listed as one of China's cultural heritage, and in 2008, it was classified as a public holiday. Moon cakes, as indispensable delicious food of the festival, were gifts people sent to families and friends during the festival and usually eaten on family gatherings. There are characters of “longevity”,“good fortune”and “harmony” on the Traditional mo on cakes. 试题二：丝绸之路 闻名于世的丝绸之路是一系列连接东西方的路线。丝绸之路是古代中国的丝绸贸易。丝绸之路上的贸易在中国、南亚、欧洲和发挥这重要作用。正是通过丝绸之路，中国的造纸、火药、指南针、印刷术传遍各地。同样，中国的丝绸、茶叶和瓷器也传遍各地，欧洲也是通过丝绸之路出口各种商品和植物，满足中国市场的需要。 The world-renowned Silk Road is a series of routes connecting the East and the West. The Silk Road represents the ancient Chinese silk trade. The Silk Road trade played an important role in China, South Asia, Europe and Africa. It was through the Silk Road that Chinese papermaking, gunpowder, the compass and the printing press spread all over the world. Similarly, Chinese silk, tea and porcelain also spread all
大学英语六级英语听力小技巧
大学英语六级CET6听力技巧 大学英语六级CET6考试中，很多同学发现听力部分很难。甚至有很多同学给我写信说自己上个月和这个月错题数目完全相同，对听力已经绝望。其实大可不必。绝望是因为没有清楚分析自己错题的原因，并且没有从错题中汲取经验和知识，结果每逢考试，总是犯同样的错误。那么六级听力部分的难点究竟有哪些呢？ 除去技巧部分，大多数同学的问题基本集中在三点：1. 生词多；2. 速度快；3. 音变频繁。 那么应该如何解决呢？ 1.生词多。背单词是大家最头痛的部分。有很多同学认为自己每天背了很多单词，但最后考试的时候还是出现遗忘现象。究其根源，是因为在背的时候只用了自己的眼睛和手，而没有用嘴和耳朵。 听力部分的特殊性就是将单词通过声音的形式来传达到同学们的耳朵里，从而考察同学们对英语的敏感度。所以如果这个词你没有听过，没有读过，或者读不对，在考试时是不会有反应的；另外一些同学发现背单词书上的单词很枯燥，无法坚持。对于这部分同学，建议大家去背历年真题中的生词。先把所有生词画出来，查找，再做题，也不失为一种动力背词法。而当你把20几套真题的单词都查过以后，你就会发现，你的单词量已经在5000左右了。 2.速度快。速度是另外一个困扰大家的难题。我常常对同学们说：“一个人的朗读速度往往就是一个人的听力理解速度。”而这就是大家为什么不能适应快语速的原因。 要解决这个问题也很简单，就是跟读真题文章，以音频语速来要求自己。平时说话中也要加快自己的语速，形成一种习惯，一种惯性。很多同学说不知道平时说话究竟要快到一个什么程度，我想美国电视剧《老友记》中的速度就是大家要达到的速度。 3.音变频繁。除了速度，音变也是困扰大家的一个难题，其表现就是大家不是一个词两个词听不懂，而是一串听不懂，一片听不懂。这就是因为同学们读句子的方式是一个词一个词地读，中间有停顿，而英美人会习惯性地在有些词中间采用音变读法，如：连读，失去爆破，重读，弱读等等。 要想听懂这样的句子，就必须提高自己的口语发音实力。建议大家使用教材练习和音频模仿同步练习音变。推荐给大家一本音变讲得很好的教材《托福听力的弦外之音》，而音频的模仿大家可以选择模仿真题的音频。这样做有三点好处：1.练习了音变；2.，熟悉了考试词汇；3.熟悉了考试句型。 (一)调整心理状态 心理状态就是一个人的心情。心情的好坏，会直接地影响我们工作、学习的效果。你也能看到，在体育比赛中，由于心理状态的起伏，参赛选手的发挥会跟着有较大的起伏。同样的道理，心理状态的正常与否对参加听力考试的同学来说也至关重要。心理方面的任何失衡都会使你手忙脚乱，得分率降低，平
英语听力学习：提高四六级英语听力的六个小方法
英语听力学习：提高四六级英语听力的六个小方法 在扩充词汇时应注意对单词含义有一个较为全面的把握，其中有个好 方法就是通过做真题、分析真题来掌握词汇。这样便可有效避免望文 生义，还有助于考试时结合语境加以理解，从而避免可能的失误。 在阅读部分的材料，大都节选自《华盛顿邮报》、《时代周刊》等的 原文。所以建议大家今后多注重此类英美报刊杂志，以便在长期阅读 中熟悉外刊的行文风格，积累重复率高的单词。真题详解精讲版里就 曾多次提及四级考试中文章的来源和出处，在备考时根据其中的建议 实行广泛阅读，会有非常明显的效果。 首先我在这里告诉大家的是大家在练习口语和背诵的同时，每天要抽 出一定的时间(一般为2?3小时)来练习听力，时间能够按照这样分配，30%的时间放在精听，你能够采用听写法，这样效果，也能够采用边对 照听力材料原文，仔仔细细逐字听懂攻破。70%的时间实行泛听，能够 随心所欲地听一些歌曲，广播，影视，原声读物。我们的听力训练学 习法共有七大步骤，是“齐步走”的谐音。 第一步：要想听懂老外讲话，首先要Maintain your composure and your confidence , 就是说要保持冷静，千万不要因为一处没有反应 过来，就慌了手脚。 第二步：听的过程中要学会根据语言传达的信息Make pictures,也就是说把抽象的语言变成形象的图画反映于脑海之中，国为相对于汉语 来说，英语表达更加形象化，这样有了图象的协助，就有利于抓住主 干而不是旁支末节，从而听懂重点;听过之后的巩固工作更加重要。 第三步：在听懂的基础上，要Model everything (pronunciation, intonation, tone, slang, idioms, patterns, etc)，也就是说要认 真模仿听力中的各种语言点(包括语音、语调、语气、习语、俚语、句 式等)，不能放过任何细节。

大学英语六级听力长对话考点分析与专项训练
大学英语六级听力长对话考点分析与专项训练 大学英语六级听力考试的一项重要的改革就是在原来的基础上增加了长对话题目的测试。长对话题目的设置符合四、六级改革的目标方向，旨在考查考生在实际的日常环境中运用语言的能力。长对话共设两篇，每篇后设有3 — 4 个题目，共7 题，对话的长度约为7 —10 个循环，每篇对话的长度为200 —300 词。长对话的录音材料用标准的英式或美式英语朗读，语速约为每分钟150词，难度与短文听力相似。每个题目提问完毕之后到下一个题目开始之前，有13秒的时间间隔供考生迅速作出正确答案的选择。 长对话的考查范围非常广泛，常见的有：工作与日常生活，校园生活，社会问题讨论。题材也逐渐多样化，如科普知识类、新闻采访类以及文化教育类。 长对话是介于短对话与短文之间的一种考查类型，同时兼有短对话的口语性强和短文听力中信息量大、逻辑关系明显、句式复杂多变的特点。 长对话的设题方式主要有三大类：主旨题、推断题和细节题。其中，细节题的分数比重最大，一般可以占长对话总题目的80％。 一、主旨类 ●设题方式 这类题目是听力长对话测试中相对容易的题目，主要考查考生对长对话主题或谈话场景的把 握，问题常常要求考生判断对话谈论的话题、对话目的或对话中谈到的主要问题等，一般是对话的第一题或者最后一题。这类题目的选项特征比较明显，一般是简短的词组短语或者短句。另外，此类题目的提问方式也相对固定，常见的有：What are the two speakers talking about/discussing？ What is the conversation mainly about? What is the main topic of the conversation? What’s the purpose of sb.’s calling/doing...? ●解题策略 1）预先浏览选项，确定题目类型。由于这类题目的选项特征明显，常常为简短词汇或短语，因而提前浏览可以帮助考生在听音前作出正确预测，进行有针对性
2017大学英语六级最全的听力技巧
2017大学英语六级最全的听力技巧 来源：智阅网 听力一直是六级考试备考的关键，大家前期，基础知识，词汇和语法的巩固之后，就要注意做题的方法和技巧，下面总结了听力做题中用到的一些技巧，希望大家可以认真学习。 一、听音之前的准备 要有效利用题目选项进行预判断，包括推测题目内容和考查内容。在看选项时，要做到以下三点。 一是竖看，确定相同之处。 二是横看，确定不同之处。 三是找出重复性高的词，这些词一般是与主题相关的词，具有路标的功能。 例如： A)They might be stolen goods B)They might be fake products C)They might be faulty products D)They might be smuggled good 在这四个选项中，竖看相同点为they might be, 横看不同点为stolen goods, fake products, faulty products, smuggled goods. 重复性高的词语为goods,products(产品)。可以推断这道题是关于产品的。在听的时候就需要注意产品是怎么样的。 二、听音时的规律 我们在听的时候要注意一下几个规律： 1.顺序规律：注意题目和文章的考点有先后顺序对应的关系。所以我们可以边听边看选项，注意在相关选项后面作上笔记以供参考。 2. 注意表示逻辑关系的小词规律： 表示转折和对比的逻辑词：
but，however，nevertheless，while，in fact，whereas，unexpectedly, unfortunately, yet, except, on the other hand, compared to，unlike，instead，in contrast to等等。 表示因果的逻辑词： as a result; since，due to; because of; therefore, thus, so 3.强调规律： (1)含义强调 specially，especially，indeed，certainly，only，certainly (2)解释规律： which is，that is，which means, that is to say, (3)举例强调： for example，for instance，such as，illustrate (4)结论强调 above all，in short，in a word, in conclusion，all in all，in brief (5)重复强调 短文中重复率很高的词或者概念往往就是该短文的主题。 4.开头规律：开头往往会引出话题，或是交代文章要论述的内容，这些句子需要仔细听并联系我们平时已有的相关话题信息进行推测文章发生的场景或是文章接下来要谈论的要点，这样有利于提高我们对下面听力文章吸收和理解的效度。此外，开头容易设考点，询问文章主题。 5.结尾规律：在文章到最后的时刻和问题开始读的时刻中间会有一定时间的停顿。这个停顿相当重要，使得我们明确文章结束以及最后说的什么。结尾也容易设置考点，询问事情的最终结果。 6.人名规律：无论是不是名人，都要关注人物的身份以及地位、贡献。
