Question

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Does this situation seem familiar to you? Your English is progressing well, the grammar is now familiar, the reading comprehension is no problem, and you are speaking quite fluently. __1__.

First of all, remember that you are not alone. Listening is probably the most difficult job for almost all learners of English as a foreign language. __2__What you need to do is to find listening resources. The Internet is really a useful tool for English students. You can download RealPlayer from RealMedia. Com. RealPlayer allows you to use the Internet like a radio station.

Once you have begun to listen on a regular basis, you might still be frustrated(挫败)by limited understanding. __3__

Here is some of the advice I give my students:

·Accept the fact that you are not going to understand everything.

·Stay relaxed when you do not understand, and try listening to the material for more times.

·Do not translate everything into your native language.

·__4__Don’t concentrate on details until you have understood the main idea.

·Listen to something you enjoy.

I remember the problems I had in understanding spoken German when I first went to Germany. In the beginning, when I didn’t understand a word, I insisted on translating it in my mind. __5__Then, after the first six months, I discovered two extremely important facts. Firstly, translating creates a barrier(障碍) between the listener and the speaker. Secondly, most people repeat themselves constantly. By remaining calm, I noticed that even if I didn’t pay much attention I could usually understand what the speaker had said.

A．This method usually resulted in confusion(困惑).

B．But you can’t follow a native English speaker at all!

C．What should you do?

D．But listening is a problem for most of the beginners!

E.The most important thing is to listen as often as possible.

F.However, after several weeks, I got used to the grammar rules.

G. Listen for the general idea of the conversation.

 G 根据下句Don’t concentrate on details不要拘泥于细节，说明要掌握中心思想，故G项正确。

 A 根据前句In the beginning, when I didn’t understand a word, I insisted on translating it in my mind.说明很多人在听力的过程中总是要翻译过来，这是极其错误的做法，只会带来困惑和误会。故A项符合上下文。
