为您找到与高中英语听力什么材料比较好相关的共200个结果:
我们都知道学英语需要有一些材料。现在市场上相关的书籍真是琳琅满目。可是这些材料哪些才是适合我们自己的呢?下面一起来看看吧。
个人觉得VOA是学英语最好的材料之一,通过VOA我们可以学到很多原滋原味的英文。包括地道的发音,俚语,最新词汇等等。
下面给大家介绍一些英语新闻,是一些比较适合练习听力的材料。供大家参考:
比如VOA、BBC和CCTV英语新闻、China Daily(中国日报)、China Today(今日中国)等英语新闻节目、报刊,都是为讲英语的人而设计制作的,是绝对地道的英语,而且涉及内容十分广泛,形式多种多样,包括政治、经济、科技、军事、教育、文化、体育、医学、宗教、历史、世界热点问题以及风土人情等社会生活的方方面面,通常还有一些新闻人物的谈话录音。
有声新闻材料的语音、语调、节奏、停顿通常都很自然、准确,说话者声音之间常可能有重叠现象,也可能有背景声音、停顿以及不完整的句子等等,而这些都是语言真实性的反映,是英语学习最好的素材。
而且这些材料大家都可以很容易找到的。比如VOA很多网站都有,CCTV英文频道独家都可以看得到。
但是 无论是哪种内容的新闻,大多数都采取新闻报道常用的所谓“导言法”进行报道。导言开门见山直接展示新闻最重要的内容。
新闻报道的这种独特而又基本的结构也被称为 “倒金字塔”(inverted pyramid)结构。这样安排内容,便于把最重要、最精彩、最吸引人的部分放在最前面,形成导言,而次要的部分紧随其后,构成补充或细节说明,最不重要的部分则安排在最后,作为背景材料。
新闻报道导言一般有六个基本要素,即5个W和1个H,也就是Who(何人)、What(何事)、When(何时)、Where(何地)、Why(何故)及 How(如何),这6个基本要素勾画出一则新闻报道的内容。
了解英语新闻的特点,便于理解其含义,进而了解其内容。
我相信通过这些英语新闻大家不仅可以锻炼听力,也可以学好发音,口语等。就靠大家平时的积累和练习了!

我们都知道学习英语,听力是第一步,选择怎么样的材料最适合听力练习呢?小编建议大家,教材不在于多,在于精,我们发现有时候我们买了太多的材料,结果没有一本完全看完的,所以选择教材的时候选择一本或者两本就足够。能把一本教材读透了,你的英语水平一定会大有突破的。那么,我们应该怎样选择英语听力练习材料呢?
下面我为大家讲解一下如何选择英语听力材料。
听力本身的提高源于听力词汇量(即指听到后能立刻反应其意思的词汇)的增大与对不同地方口音的识别能力的加强。就词汇量而言,需要根据读者自身情况进行因材施教,一般而言,该材料的阅读生词量(即指看到后能直接反应其意思的词汇)应控制在5%以内,类似《走遍美国》(Family Album),《空中美语教室》(Studio Classroom)等都比较适合推荐给有一定英语基础的读者,而《色拉英语》(Salad English)则适合基础相对较薄弱的读者循序渐进,因为其词汇量的安排也是由浅入深的一个变化过程。
以上材料的一大共同特色,也是学习听力的教材所必须具备的,是以场景为单位的安排模式。该模式从生活实用性角度而言是最为科学的。当读者具备一定词汇量后可以开始涉足一些电影材料的学习,但就选材而言,以生活片、伦理片、爱情片等为宜,诸如《阿甘正传》(Forrest Gump)、《公主日记》(Princess Diary)等。因为这些片种更接近日常生活的表达,因此其词汇的选择更为实用,尤其值得一提的是Disney的真人片一般都简单易懂贴近生活。应当注意避免使用以动作片为代表的语言含量过少的片种,以及以科幻片为代表的词汇过难的片种,类似《黑衣人》(Man in Black)、《星球大战》(Star Wars)等恰恰两者兼而有之。
就口音识别能力的提高,则需要尽量接触各种类型的发音特色,这一点在选材上较为困难,一般而言BBC能满足对英音的需求,而VOA则能满足对美音的需求,但两者就词汇量而言还是有一定难度,尤其是它们都以新闻素材为主。
因此就英音和美音而言,推荐使用《新概念英语》(New Concept English),该教材本来就有4册按难度排列,另外也有英音和美音版的音像素材可供学习,当然,早期的一些类似《英语900句》之类的教材的配套听力素材对听说能力相对薄弱的同学来说,也不失为一种不错的选择。
而其他的一些发音特色往往比较难以获得,类似《阿甘正传》(Forrest Gump)的阿拉巴马音(Alabama Tone)为美国南部乡村发音特色;一些动画中的发音夸张化特色,尤以Disney为甚;而西班牙音,亦称拉丁音,主要源于拉丁美洲人进入美国后所产生,该发音在美国电影中经常可以接触到,诸如《越狱》中菲尔南多·苏克雷(Sucre)等,但如果要典型的浓重拉丁口音,则需要从雅思考试(IELTS)的一些素材中予以提取,有时间或可以在一些英语版的拉美片中找到其综计;印度音在中国相对最难接触到,但如果身边公司里有印度的工作人员,往往可以进行一些刻意的交谈来熟悉其口音特色;日本音是除了主流发音特色外在中国相对最为容易接触到的一种发音特点,一是因为中国日本公司本来就很多,其次日剧、日本动漫等大量涌入国内,而日语中现在也很盛行直接使用一些英语的外来语,所以多接触些日剧或日本动漫,无疑对提高日式英语的识别能力也有一定帮助。
听写练习是听力的升级版本,素材基本可以以一些速度相对较慢的学术性材料为主,类似BBC、VOA、VOA SPECIAL、CRI、CRI SPECIAL等都是非常不错的练习素材。当然,也可以使用类似一些考试所使用的素材来进行提高,类似4、6级的文章类素材、雅思考试素材、托福考试素材等。
大家也可以利用网上学英语听力,现在很多网站都有VOA,BBC,CRI等听力频道,大家也可以下载MP3格式的下来学习。总之希望大家多多训练!熟能生巧!

很多人也许现在正在苦恼,为什么英语学习如此困难啊,其实英语学习重要的的培养兴趣,.培养对英语的兴趣并不难.当我们可以说点儿简单的英语,用英语与别人或与老外交谈,或作别人的翻译时,我们就可以从英语学习中得到满足感和成就感,这样,兴趣就培养起来了。
一般英语学习者,在全面提高英语的前提下,要提高听、说能力,应首先注意以下三点:
1.注意区分和模仿正确的语音、语调在英语里有不少读音相近,但意思却截然不同的词汇,象cure[kjue](医愈)和 kill[kill](杀死),menu(菜单)和manure(肥料)等。设想如果有一个医生想说:"I'll cure you."(我要治好你的病。)却因发音不好,说成:"I'll kill you."(我要杀死你。)那病人会吓成什么样子。又比如,有人对你说:" I am thirty.My wife is thirty,too."而你听到的却是:" I am dirty. My wife is dirty,too."你一定会莫名其妙。实际上,所差之外就是一个音素。因此,我们从一开始就要注意区分和模仿正确的语音,语调。在这个基础上提高听、说,才能收到良好效果。
2.创造一定的听、说环境听、说是一种语言交流,没有一个外语环境或一定的听、说条件,只靠单枪匹马很难收效。当然,现代科学为我们提供了录音机这一工具,我们可以把课文,对话和中外成品磁带录制下来反复听和模仿。还可以把自己的口头作文和复述录下来,仔细审听,发现问题,及时纠正。但是,在自然条件下,听与说是不能分的。一个人听的过程实际是另一个人说的过程。如果有条件的话,最好能把自学的伙伴组织起来,定期开展会话活动,或利用社会上,公园中提供的" 外语之角"等条件,既练了说,又练了听,在实际的语言环境中练习,才能取得长足的进 步。
3.要有不怕听错,说错,不断苦练的精神练习听、说的学习者,特别是成年人,往往必听错、说错,不敢主支张口练习。然而,语言是一种习惯,没有反复的操练和实践难以产生熟练的技巧。会话重在达意,只要达到交流思想的目的,这种听、说实践就应该说是基本成功的。出了错,注意总结经验,自学改正就是了。
建议大家不要用电影对白或者托福听力的对话部分练听写。换句话说,对话类型的材料(conversations)是不适合拿来练听写的。原因很简单,对话的难点不在于某一个词,或一个复杂的句型,或比较晦涩的内容,或巨大的信息量。
难点往往来自于一些音变现象,比如连读失去爆破;来自于一些俚语习惯表达;来自于上下文语境的理解。换句话说,很多对话材料,就算原文里每个单词你都认识,但不一定理解这句话的意思。所以,费了半天劲听写下来的对话内容,要么看不懂不理解;要么就是这次看懂了,下次还是听不出。所以,对话材料应该采用的练习方法其实是跟读模仿。
用来练听写的材料应该是一个人的陈述、讲座之类的(Lecture)。之所以选择这样的材料,是和练听写的目地分不开的。练听写的核心本质其实是为了提高我们快速理解和记忆的能力。
有的同学误以为听写就是要把听到的所有内容都写下来,那是一些考试的要求,不是我们平时提高听力的方法。如果那样练习,你会发现两个问题:一是,有的时候就算写下来了,其实也不知道自己写了些什么。二是,觉得刚才听懂了,但要下笔写的时候觉得又忘了听到什么了。
造成这两种情况的原因,都是因为我们没理解听到的内容。听写真正应该做的是记忆和总结的工作,而不是听和写的工作。什么叫做记忆和总结,就是我们不需要完全按顺序重复这一个人的每一个字,但我们要做到能理解它的内容,并在总结后复述出来。这才是我们练听写真正的目地。如果我们总是反复听原文,一个字一个字写,可能半个小时才写了一个五分钟的文章,而这半小时的投入可能就没有达到什么提高听力水平的效果。

学英语,听力越来越重要,怎样有效地提高听力学习效果是学习者非常关心的问题。以下是小编为大家整理的高中英语听力技巧,希望能帮助大家学好英语。
首先要加强对所学语言知识记忆的准确性和稳固性。抓好单词的正确拼读, 掌握常用的语调。 对词义的正确掌握以及充足的词汇量有助于正确理解所听内容 和捕捉关键信息。
其次, 听说训练应循序渐进, 循环往复。 听力不是一种孤立的能力, 它和说、 朗读、阅读、记忆等多方面的训练相联系。在训练时,要多听多讲,听是为了理 解,说是为了表达。学生平时要多开口朗读,使英语词句的字形信息和声 音信息一并输入大脑;还要进行广泛的阅读,丰富背景知识,扩大知识面。
最后适量作一些高考听力考试的模拟训练,通过实践来熟悉题型,明确备考 的目标和方向。在不断的练习中,逐渐摸索适合自己行之有效的得分方式。
解题技巧: 1.快速读题 听力测试特别要求眼、耳、手、脑多种器官的协调配合。在放每段录音前, 必须抓住间隙,快速读完选项,节省部分时间,提高应试成功率。听力试题的各 个选项常有相同或近似的部分。我们可以忽略这些部分,而把注意力集中在那些 有较大差异的部分,通过比较和鉴别,迅速做出正确判断。
2.细心听题。 考生听长段对话和短文理解时,推理思路要正确,要有扎实的语言基础,能理解较深较长的语言材料,在语篇环境中抓住要点,记住某些细节和事实,找到 答案。 听对话理解时,考生可能无法从对话中直接找出答案。我们必须回忆对话内 容,用归纳、推理判断或计算等方法,将所获取的信息进行加工然后答题。有时 答话人并非直截了当地去回答问话人的问题,而采用了某种含蓄、委婉的回答方式。这种题需要考生仔细推敲,找出其“潜台词”。
听短文时,需做到整体理解中心内容,把握主要情节,抓要点,边听边用笔 记下重要信息。如全文或段落主题句的关键词,人名、地名、日期、数字等关键 词等。记录符号要形成习惯,还应尽可能简明,只要自己懂就行,不影响跟听速 度。此外对于关键词的词义要学会推测。对于人名、地名等一些不影响文章理解的词,不必多想。对于未听懂而又必须理解的关键词,要在听过全文之后,再根 据上下文猜测词义。切忌在听短文的过程中在某个词上纠缠,结果一步跟不上, 步步都踏空。
对短文的首句和首段一定要注意抓听。 目前短文理解的大部分材料是记叙文 或讲话稿。其首句或首段往往是全篇文章的理解线索,如作者观点、内容概要、故事发生的时间、地点及起因等。听懂这些内容有助于整体理解文章,也有利于 调节情绪。要特别注意,在所听的较长对话或短文中,结尾部分所给出的信息往 往不会是题目的正确答案,而仅仅只是一个“陷阱”。决不能因为听的时间长了 产生松懈的心理,造成误选。

The story goes that some time ago, a man punished his 3-year-old daughter for wasting a roll of gold wrapping paper. Money was tight and he became infuriated when the child tried to decorate a box to put under the Christmas tree. Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift to her father the next morning and said, "This is for you, Daddy.”
有这样一个故事,爸爸因为三岁的女儿浪费了一卷金色的包装纸而惩罚了她。家里很缺钱,当孩子想要用包装纸装饰一个挂在圣诞树上的盒子时,爸爸生气了。然而,第二天早上小女孩把盒子作为礼物送给了爸爸,“这是给你的,爸爸。”
The man was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found out the box was empty. He yelled at her, stating, "Don't you know, when you give someone a present, there is supposed to be something inside? The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and cried, "Oh, Daddy, it's not empty at all. I blew kisses into the box. They're all for you, Daddy."
女儿的这个行为让爸爸感到尴尬。但是当他发现盒子是空的时候,他的怒火再一次燃烧了。他对女儿喊道,“难道你不知道给别人礼物的时候,里面应该放有东西吗?”多女孩抬头看着父亲,眼里含着泪水,“爸爸,盒子不是空的。我把吻放在了盒子里,都是给你的,爸爸。”
The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little girl, and he begged for her forgiveness. Only a short time later, an accident took the life of the child. It is also told that her father kept that gold box by his bed for many years and, whenever he was discouraged, he would take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there.
爸爸感动极了,他搂住女儿,恳请她的原谅。之后不久,一场事故夺走了小女孩的生命。据说,父亲便将那个小金盒子放在床头,一直陪伴着他的余生。无论何时他感到气馁或者遇到难办的事情,他就会打开礼盒,取出一个假想的吻,记起漂亮女儿给予了自己特殊的爱。
In a very real sense, each one of us, as humans beings, have been given a gold container filled with unconditional love and kisses... from our children, family members, friends, and God. There is simply no other possession, anyone could hold, more precious than this.
从一个非常真实的意义上说,我们每个人都被赠与过一个无形的金色礼盒,那里面装满了来自子女,家人,朋友及上帝无条件的爱与吻。人们所能拥有的最珍贵的礼物莫过于此了。

To forgive may be divine, but no one ever say it was easy. When someone is deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your grudge. But forgiveness is possible and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health.
"People who forgive show less depression, angle and stress and more hopefulness” said Fredrick PHD, author of “Forgive for good.” So, it can help save wear and tear for our organ reduce wearing out of our immune system and allow people to feel more vital.
So how do you start to help heeling, try the following steps. Clam yourselves, to defuse your angle, try a simple stress management technique. Take a couple of breathes and think of something that give you pleasure. A beautiful scene of nature or someone you love. Fredrick said” don’t wait for an apology, many times the person who hurt you have no intention of apologizing.” Fredrick said” they may not want to hurt you or just don’t see things the same way. So if you wait for people to apology, you could be waiting for awfully longtime.”
Keep in mind that the forgiveness does not necessary mean reconciliation with the person who upset you or condoning his or her action. Take the control away from your offender, mentally replaying your hurt gives power to the person who causes your pain. Instead focusing on your wonder felling, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you. ” Fredrick said” try to see things from the other persons prospective, if you empathize with that person, you may realize he or she may acting of ignorance, fear, even love. To gain prospective, you may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender point of view.
Recognize the benefit of the forgiveness, researcher has shown the people who forgive reports more energy, better appetizer and better sleep patterns. Don’t forget to forgive yourselves. For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge. Fredrick said ” but it can rob you of your self- confidence if you don’t do it.”

晨读可以增长知识,训练朗读技巧,增强英语语感,对于我们学习英语十分有好处。下面读文网小编为大家带来高中晨读英语美文背诵,希望大家喜欢!
A young man was getting ready to graduate from college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer's showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.
从前,有位年轻人即将大学生毕业。数月来,他一直渴望得到某汽车商产品陈列室中的一辆跑车。他知道,他那富有的父亲肯定买得起这辆车,于是,他便跟父亲说他很想得到那辆漂亮的跑车。
As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young man's name embossed in gold. Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?" He then stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible.
在毕业典礼即将来临的日子里,年轻人等待着父亲买下跑车的消息。终于,在毕业典礼那天上午,父亲将他叫到自己的书房,并告诉他,有他这么出色的儿子自己感到非常自豪而且非常爱他这个儿子。接着,父亲递给儿子一个包装精美的礼品盒。年轻人感到好奇,但带着些许失望地打开礼品盒,却发现里面是一本精美的精装本《圣经》,上面以金子凸印着年轻人的名字。看罢,年轻人怒气冲冲地向父亲大喊道:“你有那么多钱,却只给我一本《圣经》?”说完,便丢下《圣经》,愤怒地冲出房子。
Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make the arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things.
多年以后,年轻人已事业有成。他拥有一所漂亮的房子,一个温馨的家庭。但当得知父亲年事已高,他想,或许应该去看看他。自从毕业那天起他就一直不见父亲。就在起程时,他收到一封电报--父亲已逝世,并已立下遗嘱将其所有财产转给儿子。他要立即回父亲家处理后事。
When he arrived at his father's house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search through his father's important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he was reading, a car key dropped from the back of the Bible. It had a tag with the dealer's name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words... "PAID IN FULL".
在父亲的房子里,他突然内心感到一阵悲伤与懊悔。他开始仔细搜寻父亲的重要文件,突然发现了那本《圣经》--还跟几年前一样崭新。他噙着泪水打开《圣经》并一页一页地阅读着。忽然,从书的背面掉出一把钥匙。钥匙上挂着一个标签,上面写着一个汽车经销商的名字--正是他曾渴望的那辆跑车的经销商。标签上还有他的毕业日期及“款已付清”的字样。
How many times do we miss blessings because they are not packaged as we expected? Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.
我们多少次地与祝福擦肩而过,仅仅因为他们没有按我们想象中的样子包装好?不要在渴望得到没有的东西时损坏你已经拥有的东西,但要记住一点:你现在所拥有的恰恰正是你曾经一心渴望得到的。
Sometimes we don't realize the good fortune we have or we could have because we expect "the packaging" to be different. What may appear as bad fortune may in fact be the door that is just waiting to be opened.
有时,我们并没有意识到我们已经拥有或本该拥有的好运,仅仅因为它的外表与我们想象中的有所不同。其实,表面上看起来像是坏运气的东西或许正是等待开启的幸运之门.

Or I shall live your epitaph to make,
无论我将活着为你写墓志铭,
Or you survive when I in earth am rotten;
或你未亡而我已在地下腐朽,
From hence your memory death cannot take,
纵使我已被遗忘得一干二净,
Although in me each part will be forgotten.
死神将不能把你的忆念夺走。
Your name from hence immortal life shall have,
你的名字将从这诗里得永生,
Though I, once gone, to all the world must die:
虽然我,一去,对人间便等于死;
The earth can yield me but a common grave,
大地只能够给我一座乱葬坟,
When you entombed in men's eyes shall lie.
而你却将长埋在人们眼睛里。
Your monument shall be my gentle verse,
我这些小诗便是你的纪念碑,
Which eyes not yet created shall o'er-read,
未来的眼睛固然要百读不厌,
And tongues to be your being shall rehearse
未来的舌头也将要传诵不衰,
When all the breathers of this world are dead;
当现在呼吸的人已瞑目长眠。
You still shall live--such virtue hath my pen--
这强劲的笔将使你活在生气
Where breath most breathes, even in the mouths of men.
最蓬勃的地方,在人们的嘴里。

Whilst I alone did call upon thy aid,
当初我独自一个恳求你协助,
My verse alone had all thy gentle grace,
只有我的诗占有你一切妩媚;
But now my gracious numbers are decay'd
但现在我清新的韵律既陈腐,
And my sick Muse doth give another place.
我的病诗神只好给别人让位。
I grant, sweet love, thy lovely argument
我承认,爱呵,你这美妙的题材
Deserves the travail of a worthier pen,
值得更高明的笔的精写细描;
Yet what of thee thy poet doth invent
可是你的诗人不过向你还债,
He robs thee of and pays it thee again.
他把夺自你的当作他的创造。
He lends thee virtue and he stole that word
他赐你美德,美德这词他只从
From thy behavior; beauty doth he give
你的行为偷取;他加给你秀妍,
And found it in thy cheek; he can afford
其实从你颊上得来;他的歌颂
No praise to thee but what in thee doth live.
没有一句不是从你身上发见。
Then thank him not for that which he doth say,
那么,请别感激他对你的称赞,
Since what he owes thee thou thyself dost pay.
既然他只把欠你的向你偿还。
