Question

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.
The most important thing is to listen as often as possible.___2____
The Internet is really a useful tool for English students. You can download The RealPlayer from RealMedia.com. The 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 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 before you have understood the main ideas.
?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. This method usually resulted in confusion._____5_____Firstly，translating creates a barrier 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．But you can’t follow a native English speaker at all!

B．What should you do?

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

D．However，after several weeks，I got used to the new environment in Germany.

E．So，what you need to do is to find listening resources.
F．Then，after the first six months，I discovered two extremely important facts.
G．Listen for the general idea of the conversation.

试题分析：
小题1:A 题意 你的英语进步很大，语法也不错，阅读理解也很好，你也说得很流利，但你根本听不懂当地人所说的话。根据下文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  ，提到听力是最重要的，所以进行转折，故选A项。
小题2:E 上文提到 The most important thing is to listen as often as possible最重要的是尽可能的多听，故你要找到听力资源。与listen 是想呼应的。故选E项。
小题3:B 上文提到 一旦你开始在一定基础上听，你仍然可能理解不了。你应该如何做呢，根据下文，Here is some of the advice I give my students这有一些建议，故应是不知道如何做了，故选B 项。
小题4:G 根据下文提到，不要集中在细节上，要集中在细节上，the main ideas与r the general idea of the conversation.是同义词，故选G项，听大概意思。
小题5:F 根据下文提到Firstly，translating creates a barrier between the listener and the speaker. Secondly，most people repeat themselves constantly.，首先翻译会造成障碍，再者大多数人不断重要，这两点正是作者六个月后的体会。故选F项。
