1. Don't change the completed form easily. According to the feedback from many candidates over the years, 80% of the corrected answers are wrong.
2. Have courage when doing the questions, break free in time, dare to give up the questions that you can't do, and guess the answers boldly. Don't get bogged down in a certain topic now, which will not only be detrimental to the correct answer, but also take up a lot of examination time. For unheard-of topics, you will generally choose an option that has the least repetition with the sentences you have heard quickly after listening.
3. Dachuan international hot topics related topics. Therefore, news broadcasts, speeches at international conferences, such as VOA Special English, VOA Standard English, CNN, NPR, BBC, listening tutorials, English broadcasts, movies with bilingual subtitles, and speeches by leaders at international conferences are all good materials for practicing listening.
4. Pay attention to the practice methods when practicing listening. The most effective method is the combination of extensive reading and intensive reading. The effect of single extensive reading or intensive reading is not enough. Because listening needs long-term practice and quantity accumulation, only by combining extensive listening with intensive listening can listening make a qualitative leap.
If your hearing is generally weak, you'd better listen to VOA Special English first. The speaking speed of VOA Special English is about 90 words per minute. This can strengthen the response ability of listening. Many people have this situation when listening to English, that is, they know the meaning of each word, but they can't react when they form phrases.
6. Have a certain understanding of the cultural background knowledge related to the conversation, such as British and American history, culture, customs, etc.
