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，問題應是關於職業方面的，再從flew, passengers, airport這些資訊詞中可知道Tom的職業。
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、做簡要筆記
聽錄音時快速，準確，簡要地記下有關資訊(包括數字，人名，地名，關鍵詞)，前提是不要影響跟聽速度，採用自己習慣的符號。
例：How much will the man pay for the tickets? A.$18 B. $24 C. $30
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)
三、聽清資料，簡要記錄，加以運算。
在獲取時間資訊時，不要誤把會話中提到的時間簡單確定為問題的答案。大學聯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的火車要兩小時後才開，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。 數字類問題分辨別類和計算類兩種：
1. 要注意區分-teen和-ty及four和five的發音;辨別多位數，如電話號碼，門牌等
2. 計算時間，錢款，距離，年齡，人或物的數量等;聽出數字間的.關係，更要聽清問題，因為對運算方法的要求通常寓於問題中;注意more, less,
as much(many)as, another, double, a couple of; to, past, quarter; 記住時間是60進位制 如出現幾個數字，應注意鑑別問的是那一個。 例：At what time does the office open? A. At 8:15 B. At 8:30 C. At 7:45
從常識判斷，辦公時間往往以整點開始，而不會在幾點幾分。 聽力原文：M: I wonder why the office is still not open. W: But it's not yet eight. In fact, it's only a quarter to eight.
四、抓住關鍵詞，對症下藥
聽力考試常出現以Where提問的問句，考生要通過對話的具體情節和背景判斷對話發生的地點。一般來說，特定場景的用語和關鍵詞是基本固定的，考生要對此多瞭解，熟悉明白。在遇到Where does the conversation take place?/ Where does sb. work? What’s his job?之類的問題時，就會派上用場。
如： restaurant: menu, bill, order, tip, hamburger, beer, soup hotel: luggage, single room, double room, room number, check in(out) hospital: take medicine, temperature, pill, headache, fever, examine post office: mail, deliver, stamp, envelope, parcel airport: flight, take off, land, luggage railway station :round trip, single trip, sleeping car store: on sale, size, wear, color, style, price, change，bargain, fit school: professor, exam, course, term, dining hall, playground library: librarian, renew, date, shelf, magazine, seat
對於前五道簡短對話，要根據問題的型別，從第二個講話者的答語中來捕捉關鍵詞
如：What’s the man going to do?
A. Run to the airport. B. Wait for another bus. C. Hurry to get the next bus. 根據選項看，對話似乎與bus有關，主要資訊捕捉範圍是在“Hurry”或“Run”和“Wait”之間。聽音範圍明顯縮小。
原文M: Excuse me, can you tell me when the next bus leaves for the airport? W: It leaves in three minutes. If you run, you might catch it. 關鍵詞“run”和“catch”正好對上答案C的“Hurry”和“get”。
五、較長對話和短文的理解
抓聽首句和首段有助於整體理解文章;結尾部分所給出的資訊不一定是題目的正確答案，可能只是一個陷阱;推理思路要正確;語境中抓要點。 獨白部分(即第十段材料)可分為四種類型： *人物與故事型：敘述人物的經歷和成就，要抓住故事發展線索，所問問題多屬事實細節題 *普通知識型：內容涉及面較廣，問題以事實細節題居多 *社會科學型：涉及到文化教育，社會治安，代溝問題，就業問題，婦女問題，人口問題，環境保護，國家發展等。問題常涉及獨白的主題或題目，故需作推理判斷。 *科普知識型：主要涉及自然科學，如生物，物理，海洋，計算機，醫學，氣象，科學發明等。如遇專業詞彙和術語，可利用語境線索猜詞義。
六、果斷選題，學會放棄相信第一感覺。
當機立斷，決不能反反覆覆，甚至影響後面的答題，切記不可因某個小題未聽懂而患得患失，不可因一題失多題，造成一步跟不上，步步皆踏空的結果。 總之，只要掌握基本的聽力技巧和方法、排除一切干擾，全身心地投入語境、持之以恆地堅持大學聯考全真模擬聽力訓練，大學聯考中定能取得理想的成績。 大學聯考英語聽力考試十大必備場景詞彙
