Section A 短对话部分主要考察考生对英语日常生活用语，包括一些基础习惯用语，简单隐喻的掌握。有条件的考生平时可以通过观看国内一些大型视频平台引进的英美电视剧或者电影积累这方面的语言知识点。不光要通过字幕了解特定句型、搭配的释义，还要注意相关词句的发音，掌握包括连读、吞音等基础语音现象。
Section B 篇章题主要考察的还是同学们信息，尤其是细节内容捕捉的能力。当然，好记性永远不如烂笔头。在做听力篇章题时，适当的实时速记笔记是非常重要的，可以及时记下一些之后解答可能会涉及到的信息。第一篇讲述的是同学们相对熟悉的内容---午睡。适当的午睡可以提高下午工作（学习）效率，这是大家都深有体会的。文章提到了若干个公司在为员工提供午睡便利性上的措施以及员工的正向反馈。第二篇为网络科技主题，提到了网络搜索的劣势，介绍了一种人工搜索的相对优势，其性质类似于近两日上了热搜的某搜题app。
Section C 长对话的内容较为生活化。一男一女讨论暑假实习工作的问题。由于对话较长，问题较多，建议大家在听的过程中还是要勤动笔，把一些预感可能会在考察到的细节信息记录下来。

Section B
It's a daily struggle known to office workers the world over. A productive morning rewarded with a decent lunch, and then, at about 3 pm, there comes the irresistible sleepiness. A short nap can promote alertness and improve performance, which are important when you are at work. Now, many companies with a strong commitment to employee wellness have realized the benefits of on-site napping. UU corporation, a consulting company, has a flexible approach. Employees can take a nap for 30 minutes at most, any time between 1 pm. and 4 pm. Another company Tim and Jerry's, which already offers employees personal trainers, now supplies a room with a bed and pillows that employees can use as needed. One of its representatives says if people need to catch a little nap during the day, we're behind it. An IT firm New Link allows its employees to take a 20-minute power nap at their desks. Introduced two years ago, the policy has proved a huge hit. Mr. Lynn, an accountant in New Link, told a local newspaper: “If I use a calculator when l am sleepy, I have to double check my work, for fear of making mistakes. So it takes longer. Thanks to the policy, my work performance has improved.”

Search engines have completely changed how we access information and who we get it from. They are fast, easy and great. But there are too many questions you can't look up online. Some are too complex because they have two or more parts, and others are impossible to search because you can't remember a name or an exact year, so you get too many results to make your search useful. Or maybe you just aren't near a computer or Wi-Fi. That's when APL can make a difference. With APL, you can put questions to an information specialist at the Pearl Library. For over forty years, APL has been answering people's questions by looking things up in a variety of texts, recordings, and other resources. And these people are expert researchers so they know where to look for information, which is key in providing a really good quality answer. Sometimes accuracy is more important than getting millions of results in a second. Then how can you access APL? You can call 21518 between 9 am and 6 pm Monday through Saturday. One of the 10 information specialists will answer your question even if the question has multiple parts, and even if you're missing some of the key information. That's the benefit of a human over a computer. Plus, if you need some recommended reading, they've got that covered, too.
