四级考试刚刚结束，不管是通过分析真题还是看网上考生的普遍反馈，都不难得出这次四级考试的听力部分比去年12月份的题目难度略有下降，与去年6月题目基本持平。广大考生如果在考前做好了充足的准备，这次想要顺利通过应该不成问题。

　　先从今年听力考试的几大话题说起，我们在课堂上反复给学生强调的校园场景，工作场景这次依然是重中之重。比如求职过程中要提交的application letter，在college中获得degree，都是在往年考试中也曾出现过的重点单词。而其它一些小场景，比如酒店场景，健身场景，医院场景，购物场景也都是四级听力考试一贯的热门。通过这次考试，我们可以再次验证之前总结的规律：历年真题是过级的最佳材料。

　　再从技巧方面分析，19~35题，占四级考试119分的长对话和短文部分，只有21分不能用我们教学生的视听一致原则。而11~18短对话题中大部分的解题点也都是在我们强调过的答句。至于复合式听写，八个单词中有三个考察了动词的过去式过去分词，三个考察了名词的复数，通过考后反馈，不少学生写对了单词的原形，忽略了这些小细节导致不必要的丢分，希望这能引起广大考生的注意，在下次考试中能先通过已给段落判断出可能填的词性，然后有的放矢地关注复数或过去式。
