Listening test is one of the most important parts of the English exam. Here are some tips for you.
Before you start to listen, you need to relax. Don't be stressed out. And try to read the questions. These questions usually help you understand the conversation or the passage.
Then listen carefully to the first sentence. It usually tells you the main idea of the passage. When you're listening, try to do some thinking and take some notes, such as:
☆What happened.
☆When, where, and how.
☆What does the speaker want to tell us.
In this way, you may understand the passage better.
Please remember not to think about one or two words for a long time. When you hear some words you don't know, 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.
Confidence is something everyone needs. Sometimes you may question your level of confidence and wish it to be higher. Your confidence level makes a difference to what you can achieve. So keeping a high level of confidence is important to you. You can do as follows.
Renew your mind
What you receive decides your mind, so try something new. Read a new book or magazine or listen to a radio you haven't listened to before. In this way, you can challenge your opinions, open a new world and enrich your knowledge.
Also, spend a period of time being on your own and just think about your life sometimes. Keep yourself away from others and enjoy the power of silence.
Choose your friends wisely
Choose people you admire as your friends. It can be helpful to have those friends in your circle. Learn the way they face new challenges and communicate with them more. Keep away from those who always give up.
Let go of the past
Forgive(原谅) people who hurt you in the past. Write a letter to yourself to record your feelings in detail. If there are people who you need to say sorry to, go and do it right away.
Push yourself out of comfort zones
It's easy for us to make excuses for something. Maybe you think it's out of your comfort zone or too difficult. Remember that you can do it. It will help you discover something new about yourself, such as new hobbies or skills.
