文档介绍：英语四六级考试听力长对话10大听前预测方法
听力题中很多选项都有比较明显的特点,或者使用某种专门的表达形式,如均为动词原形或均为人物角色等;或者含有一些标志性的词语,通过这些选项特点我们便可以推测问题可能考查的核心内容;另外,我们经常可以通过对选项的分析,排除一些比较明显的干扰性,缩小听音范围,从而在听音时更有针对性。
一、各题主题揭示对话主题
将各题所考查的主题内容结合在一起,往往可得出整篇对话的主题。如果某一题目是考查对话主题,其中的一个选项明显能够概括其他各题选项的内容,那么该选项很可能为答案。

【听前预测】
预览三道题各选项,由19题中的interview, applicants, vacancy, advertise for a manager, apply for a job等词语可以推测对话与刊登招聘广告或应聘工作有关。而20题中hardworking, ambitious, good at managing his time, with practical working experience, with his own idea等词语则表明对话中还涉及到对所招聘人员的要求。
二、选项均以动词的某种形式开头
含有这类选项的问题为考查“行为活动”类型。根据动词的不同形式,问题考查的重点也可能不同。
选项均以动词原形开头,问题大多是关于建议某人做某事,有时也表示为了而某种目的而要做某事。
选项均为动名词,问题大多是关于正在进行的动作或者计划打算。
选项为不定式,问题很可能是关于做某事的目的,或是计划、承诺或要求做某事。
