我們先利用讀direction時間，快速瀏覽各個題目，找出高頻詞，把高頻詞進(jìn)行合理的聯(lián)想和組合，預(yù)測文章要講的主題。下面以2014年6月聽力中有關(guān)老齡人與其家人的關(guān)系這篇文章為例進(jìn)行講解。我們先來看一下選項(xiàng)。

　　A)One fifth of them were on bad terms with their sisters and brothers.

　　B)About one eighth of them admitted to lingering bitter feelings.

　　C)More than half of them were involved in inheritance disputes.

　　D)Most of them had broken with their sisters and brothers.

　　高頻詞： 關(guān)系詞如on bad terms和broken; sisters and brothers, inheritance dispute

　　預(yù)測：家庭生活

　　2.

　　A)Less concern with money matters.

　　B)More experience in worldly affairs.

　　C)Advance in age.

　　D)Freedom from work.

　　關(guān)鍵詞：money, experience，worldly，age, work

　　預(yù)測：生活工作

　　3.

　　A)They have little time left to renew contact with their brothers and sisters.

　　B)They tend to forget past unhappy memories and focus on their present needs .

　　C)They are more tolerant of one another.

　　D)They find close relatives more reliable.

　　關(guān)鍵詞：contact, brothers and sisters, unhappy memories, need, tolerant, relatives

　　預(yù)測：家庭生活

　　通過對各個選項(xiàng)進(jìn)行分析推理，合并同類項(xiàng)，我們大致能知道文章將要談?wù)摰膬?nèi)容。這樣我們在聽的時候就可以做到心中有數(shù)，帶著重點(diǎn)去聽，因而能更輕松的去應(yīng)對了。

　　二、巧做筆記。

　　當(dāng)聽到關(guān)鍵信息的時候，如專有名詞、時間、數(shù)字、觀點(diǎn)、表邏輯關(guān)系的連詞時，我們要快速而簡潔地做下筆記以供后續(xù)參考。做筆記時，寫下與關(guān)鍵詞相關(guān)的語義詞。例如：

　　In a study of older people with sisters and brothers, psychologist Debra Gold of the Duke Center for the study of aging and human development found that about 20% said they were hostile or indifferent to ward their sisters and brothers.

　　在這句話中出現(xiàn)了關(guān)鍵詞有兩處：Debra Gold ，20%。聽到人時要記下他的觀點(diǎn)，聽到數(shù)字時，要記下與它相關(guān)的其他信息。這句話的筆記為： D，20%， hostile。如果hostile不會寫，可以根據(jù)句子意思簡寫為 D，20%， ↓。向下的箭頭表示消極的事物。同理，向上的箭頭表示積極的事物。20% said they were hostile or indifferent to ward their sisters and brothers.與兄弟姐妹關(guān)系不好屬于消極的事物，故用向下的箭頭。這樣，通過一些簡單的字母、數(shù)字、符號我們就可以把文章內(nèi)　　容記錄下來了，這些簡單記錄對我們判斷選項(xiàng)是否正確時很有幫助。另外，還需要注意的一點(diǎn)是聽到文中出現(xiàn)選項(xiàng)中的詞匯或與其意義相近的詞匯時，要在選項(xiàng)中詞匯旁邊根據(jù)所聽到的內(nèi)容簡要做下筆記。如由于選項(xiàng)中有They tend to forget past unhappy memories and focus on their present needs 這樣的表述，當(dāng)我們聽到

　　A man who had recently reconciled with his brother told Gold there’s something that lets older people to put aside bad deeds of the past and focus a little on what we need now, especially when it’s sisters and brothers.這句話時，就需要在past旁邊寫下put aside,或是標(biāo)記向上的箭頭。

　　預(yù)測文章主題并巧記筆記是六級短文聽力取得高分的必備技巧，大家在平時進(jìn)行考前練習(xí)時，需要注意運(yùn)用這些技巧進(jìn)行英語六級聽力解題。最后預(yù)祝大家英語六級考試順利通關(guān)!
