number,call the operator and explain what happened.This means that you can make the call again to the right number without having to pay more money.

14题问的是在电话簿的哪种颜色的页码上可以找到市议会的电话号码。短文第一段指出,电话簿的蓝页部分列有city services(市政部门),government agencies(政府机关)与public schools(公立学校)的电话号码。a city council的电话号码就应该也包括在这一部分,因此应选B为正确答案。按理说此题的难度并不大,但有近半数的考生未能答对。究其原因
主要是对“The blue pages contain...”这句话的含义及背景不甚了解。因此造成理解上的障碍,影响了正确答案的选择。
Ⅲ.掌握基本的听力技巧
在听力训练或考试中,考生除了依靠所掌握的语言知识和文化背景之外,更重要的是要培养较强的听力技能。如善于捕捉重要信息和关键词语,根据常识进行推理判断,通过综合归纳抓住讲话的中心思想等。
1.捕捉主要信息
这是听力理解的重点。如果遗漏了重要信息就不可能听懂讲话的基本含义。因此,要尽快进入“状态”,抓住讲话的中心内容和关键词语。要集中精力,切忌“一心二用”顾此失彼。把主要精力集中在讲话的主要内容上。有时重要信息会出现在讲话的开头和末尾。由于受故事情节的干扰,听者往往容易忽视讲话的第一句话或最后一句。例如(1997年1月真题,第1题)
W:Frank,we’ve got a problem.We don’t have enough money to pay the rent this month.I think I’d better ask Mom and Dad for a loan,or ask my boss for a raise.
M:Well.I don’t know.But maybe I’d better not take another English course this semester.
Q:What’s the problem they are talking about?
A)Their parents cut back the loan.
B)The woman doesn’t want Frank to take another English course.
