　　四级听力长对话包含两个对话：Conversation One、Conversation Two
　　Part III Listening Comprehension
　　Section B
　　Conversation One
　　点评：
　　本长对话的内容主要是关于合伙工作。对话内容相较以往的长对话而言，比较简单。依然是主要针对回答问题的人提问，就是对话中的男士。男士一开始主要是谈他们在最初开始合作工作时遇到的问题，接下来谈到问题最终如何得到解决，最后是他和同伴如何轮休年假。当然，对话中公司名称听不懂，形成干扰。依然要强调的是不能纠结个别词汇，而因小失大。
　　对话中围绕工作的话题词汇有：schedule：(工作)计划，安排;sales representative：销售代表;vacation：假期，休假;full-time employee：全职员工。
　　Conversation Two
　　点评：
　　本长对话主要是关于超速被罚。本对话中涉及到较多交通词汇，有一定难度。对话一开始女士作为交警在学校附近逼停超出该路段限速的男士，但男士狡辩自己的速度计(speedometer)并没显示超速;女士再次提出要求审查男士的驾照，发现其驾照已经过期。最后，男士因驾照过期而收到警告。本选材非常生活化，相信大部分考生应该对这一话题并不陌生，通过日常常识也能做出不少判断。
　　本对话中关于交通话题的词汇：speed limit：限速;give you a ticket：开罚单;license ：执照，驾照;speedometer：n. 速度计;里程计
　　Section C
　　【点评】本文讨论的是美国人的时间观念。开头提出美国人非常看重时间规划，以至于到了被认为“手表控制人”的地步，接下来从语言角度给出证明，最后又从原因角度解释说明。
　　本文的难点在于，开头有长难句，包含插入语、比较级等，容易造成困扰。而在语言角度探讨时，有给出一系列动词，容易出现漏听及注意力分散。同时，utmost, abruptly, reference, philosophy, productivity等较难词汇也会带来一定困扰。
　　空格整体分布较为均匀，除第三段两空间隔较近，第二个容易错过外，其它空填写时间均较为充足。所填词语格式比较重要，如-ed，-s等均是不可漏过的细节。
　　末日逃不到世界尽头，还会依然在末日+1天带来按部就班的四级。从今天上午的四级听力最新真题来看，信末日被动待命不如信科学主动把握规律。听力形式一切如常，语速110词-120词/分;英美音交替，题点分布等等。
　　上午听力考试中所出现的破题词汇，多数是经历过反复的拼读训练!!并且总结的听力出题规律再次重现!
　　以短对话部分八道题为例，11题推断题，只要经历过听力课堂训练，必会过滤出Why don't we...核心句型——两者交流委婉态度建议句，进而提前敏感播读内容。12题的场景核心实词presentation; schedule; lecture hall; appointment; 特别是一号破题词dentist全部命中，孩子们，当耳畔飘荡着熟悉的单词是不是信心就爆棚了：)13题operation的熟词僻义不仅听力老师涉及，词汇，阅读等等单项授课老师也都反复总结。14题scholarship课堂已确定为中心校园词，破题为生活短语deserve it, 从生活出发的听力训练理念得到再次验证，“应得的，活该”童鞋们觉得亲切吗：)15题传统but 题。听力试卷有BUT就为出题。关键是经过训练的童鞋一定能听出各种变态的but了吧：)16题 promote;image 定位准确了是这两个课堂提出的高频词了：)17题make it 准时到达。18题Why don' t you AGAIN!!
　　综上来看，只要把握规律，反复操练，拼读结合，听力部分开始之前，能感受到童鞋们的脸上不再是紧缩眉头紧闭双唇，取而代之是充分享受学习的进步带来的知识的通透，发现英语语言其实可以很生活，很人文，很美好，很时尚。
