Tip

Before the listening part, use the time during the music intro to read the first 5-10 answers.

Predict before listening: Read the answers, Pay attention to verbs, nouns, Pay attention to the meaning of words.

Keyword catching skill: If answers ABCD all indicate time, location, occupation, emotions... listen and catch related keywords.

Keywords in the passage can be the same or can mislead by using synonymous words.

Keyword catching skill: If answers ABCD have long content, quickly find keywords in each answer (mostly verbs or nouns).

Keyword catching skill: If answers ABCD contain words with negative or transitional meanings, the CONTENT after that will be the keyword.

Don't look around, focus!!!!

If there is no time to read the answers, try to find negative, transitional words while listening.

Finding keywords in the answer is 50%, the other 50% is in the synonymous words appearing in the sentence.

Some questions require calculation, characterized by answers containing amounts.

Oh, don't expect the answers to be exactly the same as the listening content!

Summary of "key sentence catching" rules: Don't forget the first sentence. If the question has only two sentences, 90% of the answers are in the second sentence. If the question has many dialogues, remember to pay attention to the last sentence! In the dialogue, if someone makes a request, hope..., remember it.

Location-related questions: Where is the speaker? Where does the speaker want to go or where did they go before? The place where someone in the conversation is.

Number-related questions: Usually ask about price, salary, weight, length, year... Sometimes need to calculate.

Summary of "calculation questions" solving rules: Master the way to read numbers. Stay calm and meticulous. Understand the expression of numbers. Pay attention to "了" and "到" in the expression, e.g., 增加了 and 增加到 have different meanings.

Summary of "relationship questions" solving rules: Master the vocabulary indicating relationships like "father, spouse, friend, neighbor, colleague..." Pay attention to the communication tone. Don't miss any addressing words in the dialogue.

Summary of "tone" questions solving rules: Master the vocabulary of tones like "难过，遗憾，吃惊..." Master the use of rhetorical questions: "不是... ...吗?", "难道... ... 吗?", "没... ... 吗?" Understanding the content of the passage is the fastest way to give the answer for this type.

Should take advantage of reading through the answers before listening to the questions!

For radio listening questions, the recording often plays weather forecasts or announcements (announcements on trains, planes, shopping centers, finding items, ...)

For radio listening questions, listen carefully to the first sentence of the recording to guess the topic.

For philosophical story questions, grasp the time, location, characters, cause, development, result, and philosophical meaning in the story.

The last sentence of the passage is very likely to summarize the philosophy of the story.

For problem-solving questions, listen carefully to the first sentence to grasp the main issue throughout the passage.

Pay attention to connecting words (于是，最后，到后来，如此原来), listen carefully to the segments showing results in problem-solving questions.

Pay attention to words with a transition meaning like: 但是，可是，不过，而，却，实际上，其实

When not sure about the answer, try putting each answer in the blank, judge based on the context.

Remember to read carefully the parts around the blank!

Questions 46-60 mainly test students' ability to distinguish words, meanings, and usage.

Practical synonymous words are distinguished based on "word combination", "word nature", "usage scope".

Functional synonymous words are distinguished based on "usage", "combination objects".

Read the entire sentence containing the blank, determine the word nature to fill in.

If the answer needed to fill in is a sentence, determine the logic of the sentence, pay attention to conjunctions, prepositions...

Reading the answers, if there are two sentences with the same subject, the answer is most likely in those two sentences.

Be careful not to be deceived by the negative words "不", "没有"!

Reading the answers, if there are two sentences with the same predicate, the answer is most likely in those two sentences.

Determine if the sentence is testing students on "content details" or "finding the sentence topic".

Some topic sentences are usually placed in the first or last sentence.

If the passage is too long or contains too many new words, don't panic!

Students need to clarify the structure and flow of the text.

For simple sentences, find the structure; for complex sentences, find the relationship and correlation between the sentences.

"Storytelling passages" need to grasp: time, development, location, result, characters, insights

"Argumentative passages" need to grasp the logical thinking sequence: issue - analysis - problem-solving.

Skim the passage to find the position containing the question content!

Remember to read carefully the first and last sentences of the passage!

Be careful not to be deceived by the negative words "不", "没有"!

Reading with your eyes will be faster than reading aloud.

"Daily content passages" often have questions about fables, idioms, philosophical stories.

Students need to understand and grasp the demonstrative pronouns, which can be words, sentences, paragraphs.

Students need to understand the content of the sentence based on finding the position of the core components like: subject, predicate...

The position of the topic sentence varies in different passages: first sentence, last sentence, find the summary sentence.

"Introductory passages" often have questions about popular science, culture, customs.

Difficulty increases, content often divided into 3 parts: "introductory passage", "daily content passage", "scientific-social knowledge passage".

Arrange according to two types: component-finding sentences and special sentences.

For component-finding sentences, arrange according to the order: Verb - Subject - Complement.

For special sentences, arrange according to the characteristics of that special sentence, pay attention to the subject-predicate relationship.

In a sentence, the structure "preposition + object" will precede the verb.

In a sentence, time and location always precede the action.

Modal verbs always precede the location.

Sentences using duration complements with separable verbs, the complement will be inserted between the separable verb.

Particles can stand after a word, phrase, or sentence.

For "被" sentences, students need to grasp: the position of the subject, verb, object, and negative adverb.

For "把" sentences, students need to grasp: the position of the subject, verb, object, and negative adverb.

For comparative sentences, students need to grasp: the comparative object, adjective.

For double-object sentences, students need to grasp: the position of 让，叫，使，令, the position of pronouns.

For imperative sentences, students need to grasp: the structure of the sentence, the accompanying verb.

Don't add or remove words arbitrarily. Adding or removing words will not be scored.

If the sentence has more than one correct answer, choose the answer you are most confident about.

How to find the verb: Based on the adverb "在，正在", repetitive verb form, aspect particle, complement.

Adjectives mainly modify nouns in the sentence.

Complements usually appear after the verb.

Adverbials usually appear after the subject, before the verb predicate or adjective predicate.

For sentences with adjective predicates, find: adverbs of degree, adjectives, subjects.

The structure of the "把" sentence: Subject + "把" + noun (object) + verb + post-element.

The structure of the passive sentence: Subject + "被、叫、让" + noun (object) + verb + other elements.

Existential sentence structure: Location + verb + "着" + person/object.

Existential sentence structure: Location + "有" + person/object.

Existential sentence structure: Location + verb + directional complement + person/object.

Existential sentence structure: Location/time noun + verb + "了" + person/object.

Comparative sentence: A + "比" + B + comparison result.

Equal comparative sentence: A + 跟 + B + 一样 + (specific comparison element)

In comparative sentences, if the comparison result is adjectives, there will be no degree words like "很", "太", "非常" before it.

In comparative sentences, the comparison object after "比" can be omitted, but not before "比".

Negative adverbs must be placed before "被" in passive sentences.

Negative adverbs must be placed before "把".

In directional complements, the location always precedes "来/去", for example: 买回家来...

In the case of separable verbs, the structure is "V + 起 + N + 来", for example: 吵起架来, 下起雨来...

Remember the correct order of attributives: possessive relation, demonstrative, quantity, description (usually adjectives), category.

Attributives always precede the central word!

Remember the correct order of adverbials: time adverbial; scope, frequency, relation, tone; location, adverbials describing the subject of the action; space, direction; purpose, basis, object; describing the action.

Be careful not to miss or type punctuation incorrectly: commas, full stops, question marks.

Write with a clear topic!

Don't forget to use all 5 given words!

You don't need to write the 5 given words in the order they are presented in the question.

For unknown words, guess the word type, then write a simple sentence to end the paragraph.

Don't forget to indent the first line of each paragraph by 2 spaces!

For computer exams, if you encounter new words, you can guess and type the word according to pinyin!

If you can't guess the pinyin, you can type according to the following trick: type u + the components in the word. For example: the word "哨" will be typed as "ukouxiao".

Writing long sentences is prone to grammatical errors. Remember the saying: "writing long - writing persistent - writing nonsense"
