One thing you need to consider carefully, he is the platform on which you are going to advertise. Most big platforms in the field are so popular with sellers, not just because they can give you access to a bigger pool of potential customers, but also because they offer insurance both to the seller and the buyer. The disadvantage, however, is that you will need to pay some money for using the platform. You can use some platforms that either charge a smaller fee for advertising or even no fee at all. But in that case, what you will need to keep in mind is your safety, especially if the value of the product you're selling is high. It's always best to meet the buyer during the day at a public place, such as a coffee shop, a library or a supermarket. Parking lot anywhere monitored by security cameras is good. A few more things to keep in mind. Always be accurate with your descriptions of the things you are selling. The last thing you want is to be accused of cheating and banned from the website. Moreover, be careful with your personal information, do not give out your full name, and don't give out your home address or cell phone number unless you have to you and have a separate email address for selling online. Remember that a smart prepared seller is a happy seller. Selling your things online helps you get rid of those you don't need, and you can also be a great source of income.

You have to be careful not to be fooled or tricked by the advertisements on the internet just because something that is said to be a bargain doesn't always mean it's cheap. Maybe it's actually cheaper in a regular shop. And often something that is supposed to be new and improved has only changed the packaging design. Now the best part is, of course, the shopping. I love to buy everyday items online, and I get lots of information about them on the website before I place the order. For example, if I want a camera, I can check its quality on a camera website on the net, I can even download pictures taken by the camera to test its quality, and shopping online can save time. You don't have to go to a shop or walk around a crowded shopping area, so you needn't waste much time. The internet is really useful for shopping, and the procedure is straightforward, but be careful not to spend too much happy shopping.

话题突破02 购物消费(听力专练)
考点分析
这类对话或独白通常围绕一个核心的“消费行为”展开,其考点可以归纳为以下四个主要层面:
1. 核心信息 (What & How Much)
商品细节: 考察对商品名称、品牌、颜色、尺寸、材质、新旧程度等具体信息的捕捉。常见提问方式: What size/color/material does the man/woman want?
价格与支付: 考察对原价、折扣、优惠方式、最终成交价以及支付方式(现金、信用卡等)的计算和理解。常见提问方式: How much will the woman pay? / How does the woman pay?
2. 场景与关系 (Where & Who)
地点判断: 判断对话发生的典型场景,如商场、餐厅、网上、家具店等。常见提问方式: Where does the conversation take place?
人物关系: 判断对话双方的关系,如店员与顾客、夫妻、朋友等。常见提问方式: What’s the probable relationship between the speakers?
3. 原因与偏好 (Why & Which)
决策原因: 考察消费者选择或放弃某件商品的原因,如价格太贵、颜色不搭、尺寸不合、材质不喜欢等。常见提问方式: Why doesn’t the man want the first shirt?
偏好与选择: 考察最终决定购买哪个商品,以及做出该选择的理由。常见提问方式: Which shirt will the man buy?
4. 建议与规则 (How-to)
消费建议: 在独白或较长的对话中,会出现关于如何明智消费的建议,如对比商品、警惕广告陷阱、注意安全等。常见提问方式: What advice does the speaker give to online shoppers?
流程与规则: 了解购物平台的规定(如收费、保险)、交易流程或安全注意事项(如在公共场合交易)。常见提问方式: What is the disadvantage of the big platforms? / What should be avoided?
解题技巧
技巧1 预读题目,预测内容
在听力开始前,快速浏览问题和选项,圈出关键词(如 size, color, how much, why, relationship)。
通过选项预判对话主题。例如,如果选项是A. $40 B. $32 C. $20,你就要立刻意识到这是一道与价格和计算相关的题,听时要特别关注数字。
技巧2 抓住核心消费环节
买卖意向:听清楚是谁想买/卖什么。
商品属性:重点关注关于尺寸、颜色、款式的描述词。
价格谈判:注意 discount, sale, off, original price, special offer 等关键词。涉及计算时,要分清原价和折后价。
最终决定:注意听表示决定的句子,如 I’ll take it. / I'd like the green one.
技巧3识别信号词和语气
转折信号词是关键: but, however, the problem is 后面往往跟着说话人的真实意图或拒绝的原因,也是出题的高频区。例如:“It looks nice, but it's too expensive.” (考点:不买的原因)
建议信号词:you should, you’d better, why not, it’s best to 后面常接解题信息。
语气:通过语调判断说话人是喜欢 (Great!)、失望 (That's too bad.) 还是犹豫 (I'm not sure)。
技巧4 做好简单计算和推断
价格题往往不是直接给出答案,需要简单计算。例如:原价$100,打8折 (20% off),现价就是$80。
关系推断题要结合场景和用语。店员常用 Can I help you?,夫妻之间会用 honey 并共同决策。
技巧5 独白题抓主旨和结构
对于消费建议类独白,开头第一句常点明主旨。听清结构,如 “One thing...”, “Another advice...”, “The most important thing...” 这些连接词引出的往往是题目的答案点。

M: Don’t forget you’ll have bills too. Let’s guess that bills will be about £140 each in the house share. How much is that altogether?
W: Gosh, I can’t work it out! I think the flat is cheaper... But the house is in a nicer area.
M: You just need to figure out where you’d feel happiest and what you can afford.
W: I know. I don’t want to regret it either way.

Passage 1
听下面一段独白,回答以下小题。
17.What is the speaker mainly discussing?
A.The benefits of selling online.
B.The potential risks of selling online.
C.The dos and don’ts about selling online.
18.What is the disadvantage of the big platforms?
A.They don’t offer insurance to the seller.
B.They charge a fee for advertising.
C.They can’t be accessed easily.
19.What should be avoided?
A.Selling things of great value online.
B.Meeting the buyer at a private place.
C.Using a separate e-mail for selling online.
20.How will the seller be banned from the website?
A.By providing false descriptions of products.
B.By selling products at a high price.
C.By offering personal information.
【答案】17.C 18.B 19.B 20.A
【原文】 M: Selling your things online helps you get rid of those you don’t need, and it can also be a great source of income. One thing you need to consider carefully is the platform on which you are going to advertise. Most big platforms in the field are so popular with sellers, not just because they can give you access to a bigger pool of potential customers, but also because they offer insurance, both to the seller and the buyer. The disadvantage, however, is that you will need to pay some money for using the platform. You can use some platforms that either charge a smaller fee for advertising or even no fee at all — but, in that case, what you will need to keep in mind is your safety, especially if the value of the product you’re selling is high. It’s always best to meet the buyer during the day at a public place such as a coffee shop, a library, or a supermarket parking lot — anywhere monitored by security cameras is good. A few more things to keep in mind: always be accurate with your descriptions of the things you are selling. The last thing you want is to be accused of cheating and banned from the website. Moreover, be careful with your personal information: do not give out your full name and don’t give out your home address or cell phone number unless you have to, and have a separate e-mail address for selling online. Remember that a smart, prepared seller is a happy seller.
Passage 2
听下面一段独白,回答以下小题。
18.What advice does the speaker give online shoppers?
A.Compare before buying cheaper items.
B.Try not to watch advertisements.
C.Be careful not to be cheated.
19.What does the speaker usually do about shopping online?
A.She seeks useful information about products.
B.She goes to the physical shops in advance.
C.She tries to look for lots of bargains.
20.What does the speaker remind people to do in the end?
A.Reduce time of surfing the Internet.
B.Choose a physical shop.
C.Spend wisely online.
【答案】18.C 19.A 20.C
【原文】W: Hello, everyone. Today I’d like to talk about advertising on the web. You have to be careful not to be fooled or tricked by the advertisements on the Internet just because something that is said to be a bargain doesn’t always mean it’s cheaper. Maybe it’s actually cheaper in a regular shop and often something that is supposed to be new and improved has only changed the packaging design. Now the best part is, of course, the shopping. I love to buy everyday items online and I get lots of information about them on the website before I place the order. For example, if I want a camera I can check its quality on a camera website on the net. I can even download pictures taken by the camera to test its quality. And shopping online can save time. You don’t have to go to a shop or walk around a crowded shopping area. So, you needn’t waste much time. The Internet is really useful for shopping and the procedure is straightforward, but be careful not to spend too much. Happy shopping!

The city council of Maple Creek has approved the plan to build a new public swimming pool near the city park. Plans for the swimming pool will include indoor and outdoor swimming pools connected together.

20.What is the most important for tourism businesses according to the speaker?
A.Hiring new workers. B.Increasing borrowing. C.Raising investment in advertising.
【答案】17. A 18.B 19.C 20.B
【原文】W: The last few years have been difficult for our country’s tourism industry. Not just here in Spain, but in the entire world. We missed an increase in our economy during Christmas and New Year’s several months ago. And currently, we are not even close to our regular travel rates during the spring. That’s why we’re starting our travel program now to prepare ourselves for the summer months coming soon.
I’ve talked to many workers in tourism. Hotel owners, bar servers, tour guides, and all else in this industry have suffered. But now, most of the world is opening again for travel. Soon, not only do I expect tourism in our country to increase heavily, but I believe this will help our country to recover fully!
So, along with other top government leaders in my group, we plan to offer practical assistance for tourism businesses. We’ll spend more money on advertising for Spanish tourism around Europe. And we are also considering increasing borrowing for businesses, which is the most important thing. Hopefully, companies can clean and fix their places while hiring staff before the summer tourist season.

话题突破02 购物消费(听力专练)
考点分析
这类对话或独白通常围绕一个核心的“消费行为”展开,其考点可以归纳为以下四个主要层面:
1. 核心信息 (What & How Much)
商品细节: 考察对商品名称、品牌、颜色、尺寸、材质、新旧程度等具体信息的捕捉。常见提问方式: What size/color/material does the man/woman want?
价格与支付: 考察对原价、折扣、优惠方式、最终成交价以及支付方式(现金、信用卡等)的计算和理解。常见提问方式: How much will the woman pay? / How does the woman pay?
2. 场景与关系 (Where & Who)
地点判断: 判断对话发生的典型场景,如商场、餐厅、网上、家具店等。常见提问方式: Where does the conversation take place?
人物关系: 判断对话双方的关系,如店员与顾客、夫妻、朋友等。常见提问方式: What’s the probable relationship between the speakers?
3. 原因与偏好 (Why & Which)
决策原因: 考察消费者选择或放弃某件商品的原因,如价格太贵、颜色不搭、尺寸不合、材质不喜欢等。常见提问方式: Why doesn’t the man want the first shirt?
偏好与选择: 考察最终决定购买哪个商品,以及做出该选择的理由。常见提问方式: Which shirt will the man buy?
4. 建议与规则 (How-to)
消费建议: 在独白或较长的对话中,会出现关于如何明智消费的建议,如对比商品、警惕广告陷阱、注意安全等。常见提问方式: What advice does the speaker give to online shoppers?
流程与规则: 了解购物平台的规定(如收费、保险)、交易流程或安全注意事项(如在公共场合交易)。常见提问方式: What is the disadvantage of the big platforms? / What should be avoided?
解题技巧
技巧1 预读题目,预测内容
在听力开始前,快速浏览问题和选项,圈出关键词(如 size, color, how much, why, relationship)。
通过选项预判对话主题。例如,如果选项是A. $40 B. $32 C. $20,你就要立刻意识到这是一道与价格和计算相关的题,听时要特别关注数字。
技巧2 抓住核心消费环节
买卖意向:听清楚是谁想买/卖什么。
商品属性:重点关注关于尺寸、颜色、款式的描述词。
价格谈判:注意 discount, sale, off, original price, special offer 等关键词。涉及计算时,要分清原价和折后价。
最终决定:注意听表示决定的句子,如 I’ll take it. / I'd like the green one.
技巧3识别信号词和语气
转折信号词是关键: but, however, the problem is 后面往往跟着说话人的真实意图或拒绝的原因,也是出题的高频区。例如:“It looks nice, but it's too expensive.” (考点:不买的原因)
建议信号词:you should, you’d better, why not, it’s best to 后面常接解题信息。
语气:通过语调判断说话人是喜欢 (Great!)、失望 (That's too bad.) 还是犹豫 (I'm not sure)。
技巧4 做好简单计算和推断
价格题往往不是直接给出答案,需要简单计算。例如:原价$100,打8折 (20% off),现价就是$80。
关系推断题要结合场景和用语。店员常用 Can I help you?,夫妻之间会用 honey 并共同决策。
技巧5 独白题抓主旨和结构
对于消费建议类独白,开头第一句常点明主旨。听清结构,如 “One thing...”, “Another advice...”, “The most important thing...” 这些连接词引出的往往是题目的答案点。
