一、學會預測 預測是在做聽力理解之前根據各種暗示，如所給答案選項，段落或對話標題等已有知識，對即將聽到的段落或對話內容進行預測。

　　1. 從答案選項中預測：

　　Q: What does Tom do?

　　A. He’s a truck driver. B. He’s a ship captain. C. He’s a pilot.

　　錄音原文： W: Tom flew to Anchorage last night, then took some passengers from there to Dallas . M: Yeah, but he couldn't land because the airport in Dallas was snowed in. 從選項看，問題應是關于職業(yè)方面的，再從flew, passengers, airport這些信息詞中可知道Tom的職業(yè)。

　　2. 從說話人口氣預測：

　　在A,B兩人的對話中，如果B是附和或贊成，往往說“Yes”，“I agree”，“Sure”，“I think so”等。但如A用否定句，B表同意時則用“No”，“Neither / Nor?”等。

　　例如： A: Harvey doesn't seem to fit into this class. B: No, he is really a fish out of water.

　　二、聽清數據，簡要記錄，加以運算。

　　在獲取時間信息時，不要誤把會話中提到的時間簡單確定為問題的答案。高考聽力考查時間時往往要進行簡單的時間換算。

　　At what time does the train to Leeds leave?

　　A. 3:00 B. 3:15 C. 5:00

　　錄音原文： W: Excuse me, could you tell me when the next train to Manchester is? M: Sure. Well, it's 3 now. The next train to Manchester leaves in 2 hours, but you can take the train to Leeds which leaves in 15 minutes, and then get off at Manchester on the way. 對話中提到了三個時間It's 3 now, in 2 hours，in 15 minutes.

　　現在是3點，開往Manchester的火車要兩小時后才開，即The train to Manchester leaves in 2 hours。若簡單機械地把3點和2點相加，會得出火車5點才開的錯誤選項C。

　　三、做簡要筆記 聽錄音時快速，準確，簡要地記下有關信息(包括數字，人名，地名，關鍵詞)，前提是不要影響跟聽速度，采用自己習慣的符號。

　　例：How much will the man pay for the tickets?

　　A. B. C.

　　原文：W: Tickets for the movie are $ 6 for adults, half price for children. M: All right, I’d like three tickets for adults and two tickets for children, please. 筆記可簡化為：$ 6 A(A代表adult)，C代表children,3A+2C或6 A(3)+ half C(2)
