M: As you can see from the drawings, the kitchen has one door into the dining room, another into the family room and a third to the outside.

Q: What are the speakers doing?

【答案】D) Discussing a housing plan.

【解析】此題為簡(jiǎn)單的推理題。從drawing，kitchen等關(guān)鍵詞可知，兩人正在看房間的圖紙，并討論希望family room能夠再大點(diǎn)。

12.

M: I’m thinking about where to go for a bite tonight. Any suggestions, Barbara?

Q: What is the man probably doing?

【答案】C) Listening to some loud music.

【解析】此題為較為簡(jiǎn)單的推理題。從volume，earphone，bother等關(guān)鍵詞可知該男子聽音樂時(shí)把音量調(diào)的很高，從而影響到了女子準(zhǔn)備演講比賽。

Q: What is the woman looking for?

【答案】B) Grey pants made from pure cotton.

【解析】此題為細(xì)節(jié)題。從關(guān)鍵詞pants，grey，100% cotton可知，女子想要的是灰色純棉的短褲。

18.

M: Miss, can I interest you in a pork special with serving tonight? It’s only 799, half the usual price and it’s very tasty.

W: Oh really? I will try it.

Q: What does the man say about the dish?

【答案】A) It is a good bargain.

【解析】此題為細(xì)節(jié)題。男子在給女子推薦時(shí)說該道菜今晚的價(jià)格是平時(shí)的一般，且很好吃，可見十分劃算。

點(diǎn)評(píng)（滬江網(wǎng)校）：

今年的聽力短對(duì)話從提問方式來看，仍舊沿襲過去慣例，考查了信息細(xì)節(jié)題、暗示題和推斷題，其中，信息細(xì)節(jié)題考查最多，例：短對(duì)話的1、5、6、8均為信息細(xì)節(jié)題。需要同學(xué)在聽的能夠較快速的捕捉關(guān)鍵詞，并將其組合，從而又快又準(zhǔn)確的鎖定答案。

從對(duì)話內(nèi)容來看，今年的內(nèi)容確實(shí)同預(yù)測(cè)的一致：日?；?、生活化。短對(duì)話在包括了傳統(tǒng)的餐廳、旅游、職業(yè)內(nèi)容的詢問以外，還加入了如第1題的裝修、第14題的家庭聚會(huì)、第16題的購物等更貼近日常生活的話題內(nèi)容。

總體來說，今年的四級(jí)聽力難度適中。如果有較好的細(xì)節(jié)抓取能力，完全能得到滿意的分?jǐn)?shù)。
