二、长对话
长对话的篇幅较长，想要听过之后就能将主要的内容都清楚地记在脑子里，几乎是不可能的。考生只有听一遍的机会，只能边听、边记、边答。
边听边记是听力中一项非常重要的技能，但是做笔记并不是要把听到的每一个单词都记下来，笔记无非是帮助记忆的手段，只要能把重要的信息用可识别的符号记录下来，就算达到了目的。因此为了提高听与记的效率，应注意把握一定的技巧和原则。
抓住首尾句
主题句常常是在对话的开头，它对整个对话的内容起一个概括和提示的作用，实际上是说话人所谈论的中心话题。长对话中的第一题很可能是针对对话的开头提问，考查考生对整个对话的主题或所谈话题的把握。
结尾处往往涉及到建议、决定或某种行为等，它对整个对话起到一个总结的作用。长对话的最后一题经常是针对对话的结尾设题，故留意其中的关键动词就成了解题的关键。
留意对话中的一问一答
长对话中，对话双方往往出现多个一问一答，而这恰恰是长对话的一个出题重点，对话后面问题往往就是对话原文中问题的照搬或是同义转述，因此其答案就是对话中紧接问题之后的答语，而且一般不会有同音或近音词的干扰，因此对于这类题目答案的基本原则就是 “听到什么选什么” 。
留意重复率较高的词或短语
对话的主要内容理所当然会得到说话人的强调，而一个非常重要也是非常明显的强调方式就是重复，而且重复的词语往往能够揭示对话的主题。因此对那些对话双方多次提到的词语或内容应进行重点记忆。
留意数字、人名、地名、时间、年代等相关信息
遇到数字、人名、地名、时间、年代时要对相关信息做简要记录，尤其是选项中出现类似的概念时，在听音时更应重点留意。
注意使用缩略语
记笔记一定要迅速，而要想在有限的时间内尽可能比较全面地记录重点信息，使用一定的缩略语和熟悉的符号是十分必要的。
听力考试长对话解题步骤
长对话题中，考生在考场上可以直接接触到的同样也只是每道题的四个选项，谈话内容与问题均在录音中出现，因此考生拿到考卷后应该从分析选项入手，遵循以下四个步骤答题：
第1步：快速浏览各题选项，注意相同或相关词语的重复出现，推测对话主题。
在没有听原文之前我们只能通过几个题的选项来 “串” 对话，猜测对话内容。根据各题选项中出现的相同或相关词语，可以推测出短文的大致主题，从而更容易、更准确地理解短文内容，并且可以有助于主旨题的解答。
第2步：按照题目顺序，推测问题类型及内容，确定听音时需要关注的主要信息点。
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，如均含有描述某人性格或某事特点的词语。通过这些选项特点及选项内容，我们便可以推测问题可能考查的核心内容，从而在听音时更有针对性。注意在推测问题时，应与主题联系起来，因为每一道问题都不会偏离主题；反过来结合几道题的考查核心，可以进一步确认主题内容。
第3步：集中精力听对话，抓取关键点，必要时适当做笔记。
听音时应重点留意开头、结尾以及与选项相关的信息，并针对选项要点适当做笔记。
第4步：根据提问内容，结合所做笔记，迅速得出答案。
【例】（710分样卷—Conversation One）
19. A）To interview a few job applicants.
B）To fill a vacancy in the company.
C）To advertise for a junior sales manager.
D）To apply for a job in a major newspaper.
20. A）A hard working ambitious young man.
B）A young man good at managing his time.
C）A college graduate with practical working experience.
D）A young man with his own idea of what is important.
21. A）Not clearly specified.
B）Not likely to be met.
C）Reasonable enough.
D）Apparently sexist.
【解题步骤】
第一步：快速浏览各题选项，注意相同或相关词语的重复出现，推测对话主题。
预览三道题各选项，由19题可以推测对话与公司刊登招聘广告或应聘工作有关，而20题则表明对话中还涉及到对所招聘人员的要求。
第二步：按照题目顺序，推测问题类型及内容，确定听音时需要关注的主要信息点。
19题选项均为不定式短语，故问题很可能与某种行为有关。A）、C）是关于招聘工作（interview，advertise），B）、D）则是关于申请工作（fill，apply for），故听音时应首先搞清对话是关于招聘还是应聘，然后注意抓取选项中出现的关键词。
20题选项均为具有不同特点的人才，故可推知本题考查的是对于招聘人员的要求。因此，听音时应重点关注对人才要求的描述，并留意选项中的关键词语：hard working ，ambitious，good at managing his time ，working experience等。
21题选项均是对某事物的评价，而根据specified（具体）和be met（得到满足）以及对对话主题的猜测，可推测本题很可能是考查对招聘要求的评价或看法。故听音时应注意那些带评论性质的词语或句子。
第三步：集中精力听对话，抓取关键点，必要时适当做笔记。
抓取关键点：
M：Morning，Brenda.
W：Good morning，Mr. Browning.
M：Er，did you put that ad in yesterday？
W：Yes，yesterday afternoon.
M：The ad for a junior sales manager，I mean.
W：Yes，it went into the Standard and the Evening News.
M：That’ s good. Erm，well……
W：What kind of person have you got in mind for this job？
M：Oh，well，somebody fairly young，you know，twenty something，like 21，or 25. A man，I think.
W：A man？
M：We really need a man for the position. Yes，I mean，it’ s really demanding. The sort of situations they get into are much too difficult for a young woman to deal with，erm……
W：Erm，what sort of a young man have you got in mind？
M：Oh，you know，a good education，polite，responsible，and easy to get along with. What I don’ t want is one of those young men just out of university，with exaggerated ideas of his own importance.
W：Yes，erm，what sort of education are you actually looking for？
M：Well，you know，a couple of A levels. Must master English，of course.
W：Yes，I think you’ re asking quite a lot. I mean you’ re not really prepared to pay all……
M：No，I’ m not prepared to give him a big salary to start with. Nevertheless，I want someone with plenty of ambition，plenty of drive. You know，not looking at the clock all the time.
W：Well sir，I wish you the best of luck and hope you have some very successful interviews.
M：Well，yes？
W：Because I think you’ re asking an awful lot.
第四步：根据提问内容，结合所做笔记，迅速得出答案。
19. What did Mr. Browning ask Brenda to do？
根据原文中did you put that ad in yesterday？和The ad for a junior sales manager可知Mr. Browning是要求Brenda在报纸上刊登一则招聘广告。本题只需抓住ad一词（advertisement的缩写）即可确定答案为C）
20. What kind of person will meet the job requirements？
根据原文中fairly young，plenty of ambition，plenty of drive等关键词可知，招聘者想要寻找的是一个工作努力、有抱负的年轻小伙子，故答案为A）
21. What does Brenda think of the qualifications Mr. Browning insists on？
根据原文中女士话中you’ re asking quite a lot 以及you’ re asking an awful lot可推知她认为Mr. Browning的要求太多太高，不大可能会得到满足，故答案为B）

测试答案及详解
Exercise 1
1. What is the woman？
【解析】A）整个对话关于女士与学生之间融洽的师生关系，故选A。
2. What are those students like？
【解析】B）从 “They are also very active. No one is shy.” 一句可得选项。
3. Why does the woman have to go？
【解析】B）从 “But I have to because of my parents.” 一句可得答案。
4. What is the man’ s job？
【解析】D）本题为本长对话的第一题，出题点必从对话开始，由选项可知，本题涉及职业，对于职业的考查也是前几年四级考试的重点。男士在文中明确提及trading in financial markets，根据同义推断原理，可推断该男士的职业是financial trader.
5. Why does the man prefer to cook a meal rather than have a take—away？
【解析】B）预览选项，可知选项A与其他三项明显不同，可初步排除。本题与食物或烹饪有关。所以在听音过程中，如提及cooking或food，应多加注意，适时记录。听音过程中听到此句 “I always cook a meal rather than have a take—away” ，即可知答案就在附近，接下来的一句 “To do something my brain will regard as creative” 中，出现了关键词creative，选项B与之相符，故选择B选项。
6. What does the man say about an element of stress in his job？
【解析】A）本题是细节加评论题，关键要弄清楚各选项中it所指代的内容。本文出现频率最多的词是stress，可大胆推测，此题考查的是对stress的评述。本题又是此长对话的最后一题，答案应在听力对话的后两句。 “I do actually enjoy an element of uncertainty”. 只要抓住此句中的一个关键词 “uncertainty” ，此题便可轻易而解，选项A正确。
7. What is the topic of the conversation？
【解析】C）这篇对话谈论的为女士在乡村的假日，故选C。
8. Where did Jane spend the nights in the country？
【解析】B）从 “We cooked all meals ourselves and ate in the open air.” 一句可知。
9. What was the weather like in the country？
【解析】A）从 “It was sunny every day.” 一句可知。
10. What will the man do tonight？
【解析】A）由选项可知本题是对男士将要发生的动作进行判断。寒暄后，女士提出dinner tonight，男士回答 “I’ d love to，but……” 委婉拒绝了邀请。But提示后面为原因， “I’ m taking off for Miami” ，后又补充说是 “going home” ，故答案为A）其后的rain check是 “延期” 的意思。
11. Why can’ t the woman join the man for coffee？
【解析】C）由选项预测本题是对原因提问。由上题可知男士无法与女士共进晚餐，因而提出了 “go to the coffee shop and chat for a while” 的建议，女士回答： “I really wish I could，but……” 同样委婉拒绝了邀请，并提示后面的原因，即 “I’ m on my way to the tennis courts. I’ m taking lessons.” 与C）相符。
12. Which of the following did the man agree to do？
【解析】D）由选项可知本题同样是对男士的行为进行判断。抓住关键句I’ ll join you in taking lessons. 即可推断出答案为D）
Exercise 2
1. Why does the man choose to take an evening course？
【解析】C）预览选项，选项A、D讨论evening class，选项B讲述day course，立刻可推测此长对话与课程有关，且该课程有day class和evening class之分。从这四个选项暗含的意义推测，男士应偏重于evening class，可初步推测，此题考查男士选择evening class的原因。原文中男士明确说明it would have to be an evening course since I work during the day，关键词在于since，正所谓 “因果必考” ，选项C与原文相符。
2. What does the man have to do before taking the course of computer programming？
【解析】B）行为动作考查题，根据19题推测，本对话涉及报班，由本题四个选项可知，所报课程与电脑有关，因为前三项均与computer有关。可知选项D与其他三项明显不同，可初步排除。本题也为一细节题，在听力过程中，应适时记录相关信息。女士先提到了Have you taken any courses in data processing，在其后紧跟着又对其进行了解释data processing is a course you have to take before you can take computer programming。对于data processing在对话中重复出现，且与问题相符，故选择B选项。
3. What do we learn about the schedule of evening course？
【解析】C）由选项即可知本题考查数字的细节题，且考查的数字为持续的时间，初步推测为某一课程所持续的时间。所以如在听力过程中涉及数字都要作笔记，且应注意数字的上下文场景。对该问题的回答，信息较分散，最初提到了every Monday，from 7to 9：45。接下来在let me see停顿之后出现答案12weeks，from September 1to Christmas Eve. 整合以上信息，应选C。选项A错在Thursday evening，原文中明确给出应该是Monday evening。选项B中的New Year’ s Eve也是偷梁换柱，应为Christmas Eve。选项D涉及小计算，每晚3小时，持续12周，应大约总共36小时才正确。
4. What does the man want to know at the end of the conversation？
【解析】A）根据 “前二后二必考” 原则，本题又为本对话的最后一题，此题必在文章后面出题。由四选项的形式可初步推测，本题考查的是问题的内容。本题的问题直截了当，在原文中男士给出了明确的提问， “Is there anything that I should bring with me？” 与选项A同义。许多考生按照常理或主观臆测选定选项B，此项在原文中恰恰没有提到。原文中男士也明确表明 “I know how to get there，” 选项C是多余的。文中虽提到checkbook，是女士对男士问题的回答，而非男士的发问，故排除。
5. What is the man looking for？
【解析】B）男士说 “I’ m looking for a book on the presidential election system……” ，后来说到 “I’ ve already looked through all the political science books” ，由此可以推断，a book on the presidential election system属于the political science books。因此，他要寻找的是B）A political science book。
6. Where does the woman first direct the man to？
【解析】C）当男士说需要一本关于总统选举体制的书时，女士以为他说的是textbook，于是马上说 “all of our textbooks are……in the back of the store” 。因此，选项C）符合题干要求。
7. What kinds of books are listed in Books in Print？
【解析】C）女士说 “you should try looking in Books in Print” ，在男士不知道什么是Books in Print的情况下，女士解释说，Books in Print是 “an index that lists all of the books currently available from publishers” ，选项C）符合题干要求。注意，in print是指 “（books）currently available from publishers，正在出售的” ；out of print是它的反义词组，表示 “已售完” ，也很常用。
8. Why are the students discussing Albert Kahn？
【解析】D）由女士所说的……I have to do some research……I need to read up on kahn’ s factories可以推知，女士在研究卡恩的作品，整个对话就此展开。
9. In which is Albert Kahn best known for？
【解析】B）听音时注意和Kahn 相关的信息： “the modern building he is famous for” 以及 “best known for his factory。” 问题问Kahn因为什么最有名，B）为该细节的同义转述。
10. To what industry did Albert Kahn make a major contribution？
【解析】D）听音时注意提到的行业。根据 “especially the auto plants” （汽车车间）及 “So the cars could be assembled in one huge plant。” 可推出答案为D） “运输行业” 。
11. According to the talk，what was one problem with factories before Kahn’ s time？
【解析】A）听音时注意和建筑缺点相关的信息，对话中男士提到 “there were fire hazards too。” 问题问卡恩时代之前的汽车工厂存在的问题，A）为细节再现。
12. What are the speakers discussing？
【解析】B）对话围绕着交下一年的宿舍押金展开，接着女士说她在考虑搬出校园，由此引发了两人的讨论，因此整个对话主要是对话双方讨论下一年在哪居住的问题，因此答案选B）
13. What must a person do in order to live in a university house？
【解析】A）对话中男士说 “You’ d better hurry up if you want a room next September” ，而从前面的对话内容 “make my dormitory deposit for next year” 可知男士说的hurry up指的是赶紧去交dormitory deposit，由此可知如果要住学校的房子，就要付一些钱给housing office，故选A）
14. Where do the two speakers live now？
【解析】A）从对话最后两人谈到在宿舍学习时的情况和住宿舍可以省钱可以判断两人现在都住宿舍，只是女士想搬出宿舍住。
15. What does the man seem to be concerned about？
【解析】D）从男士的话 “Think of the money you’ d save” 可以判断他关心的是money，因此答案选D）A）Grades是女士关心的问题。B）和C）两项对话中未谈及。
