2009年12月英語四級聽力選擇題破題技巧

　　原文：

　　W：Oh! I’m fed up with my job!(第一次作對第23題的機(jī)會，be fed up with sth/sb意思為厭倦某事或某人)

　　M：Hey!There’s a perfect job for you in the paper today. You might be interested.

　　W：Oh?What is it?What do they want?

　　M：Wait a minute…Ah，here it is. The European Space Agency. It’s recruiting translators.(第24題。視聽基本一致)

　　W：The European Space Agency?

　　M：Well，That is what it says. They need an English translator(第24題。視聽基本一致) to work from French or German.

　　W：So they need a degree in French or German，I suppose. Well，I’ve got that. What’s more? I’ve plenty of experience. What else are they asking for?

　　M：Just that.. A university degree，and 3 or 4 years experience as a translator in a professional environment. They also say，the person should have a lively and inquiring mind，effective communication skills，and the ability to work individually，or as a part of the team.(第25題AB項同時被讀到，于是就都錯了。本句含義為，他們同時說，這個人需要有活潑好學(xué)的性格，有效的交流技巧，既有個人能力又可以成為團(tuán)隊一員。)

　　W：Well，if I stay on my present job much longer，I won’t have any mind or skills left.(作對第23題的第二次機(jī)會) By the way，what about the salary?I just hope it isn’t lower than what I get now.

　　M：It’s said to be negotiable. It depends on the applicant’s education and experience.(最后被讀到，第25題準(zhǔn)確答案。視聽基本一致) In addition to basic salary，there’s a list extra benefits. Have a look yourself.

　　W：Em…travel and social security plus relocation expenses are paid. Hey，this isn’t bad，I really want the job.

　　Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you’ve just heard:

　　23. Why is the woman trying to find a new job?

　　24. What position is being advertised in the paper?

　　25. What are the key factors that determine the salary of the new position?
