Here are some tips on listening. We hope they can help you in one way or other.
Relax yourself.
Before you start to listen to something, you need to relax. Don’t get nervous or excited.
Listen carefully to the first sentence.
The first sentence tells you a lot about the whole passage. For example, if at the very beginning you hear “many shops in many parts of China have decided to take all kinds of Japanese goods (商品) off their shelves, but some people say it’s not a good idea. Our reporter says...”, you will know what you are hearing is a piece of news, not a children’s story, or a science report.
Think when you are listening.
When you are listening, try to do some thinking. For example, you can think about the following questions: What happened? When, where and how? What was the result and what does the speaker want to tell us? You may understand the passage better this way.
Pay attention to important facts.
It’s important for you to remember some important facts. For example, if the passage is a science report, you should try to remember its findings and how scientists got their results.
Don’t think about one or two words for too long.
You may hear some words that you don’t know, but don’t spend too much time on them. Very often, you’ll find out what they mean later when you go on with the listening. But you can write down some words of sentences that you think are important, and maybe you can use them when you’re answering the questions.
根据短文内容回答下列问题。
1. What do you need to do before you start to do listening?
2. Why do you have to listen carefully to the first sentence?
3. When should you try to do some thinking?
4. What is important for you while listening?
5. What’s the passage about?
6. 书面表达

Losing Our Language
The Internet is a place where we can talk freely. However, young people’s language competence (能力) is becoming poorer because they pay little attention to the way of talking on the Internet. More than 76% of young people in China say they feel their Chinese language skills are becoming poor.
Internet memes (表情包) are changing their communication habits (习惯) when they communicate on the Internet, they usually use Internet memes. For example, when one sees something funny, he will just use “hahaha”, or use the “cry-laugh” emoji (表情). Also, “copy” culture is getting popular. People often pick up expressions from the Internet without much thinking.
If this goes on, it may do harm to our way of thinking. When young people always choose to use emoji without thinking, it means they become too lazy to show their real feelings. If they keep using emoji in this way, it may be difficult for them to use the words correctly.
To improve our language skills, experts (专家) suggest that we should try to develop language logic (逻辑). They also suggest that we should read more good books. Besides, keep using different kinds of words to show our feelings. It’s another good way to practice our language.
1. Why is young people’s language competence becoming poorer nowadays?2. What is changing young people’s communication habits?
