　　今年的听力还是一贯的作风，干扰选项还是一如既往的多，但要做对题，视听一致仍然占大头，同义替换倾向于换简单的单词。结合选项告知的信息，也能预测文章的大意，这样听起来还是能够游刃有余。总体难度跟往年一致。

　　四级新闻开篇前三句出题也很新闻做派，实属送分。 现在通常上来就是一篇关于动物的文章，往年考过熊，蛇，蜜蜂，今年轮到水生生物鱼了。对于Poisonous= deadly，endanger= threat这样的同义替换，你做对了吗?好在答案句出在开篇和结尾，你很可能不认识的marine原文复现给你奉上。

　　由于新闻语速较快，篇幅在三个section中最短，我们也要考虑到答案句很可能接连出现，news report two中的答案句你抓住了吗?这也证明了你在听之前迅速扫读选项很重要，我们需要做到对8个选项做到心中有数。每个数字对应不同的事物，选项信息拼凑非常考察眼疾脑子快。Be accessible only by foot or bicycle = closed to cars 正话反说你get到了吗?

　　新闻里考察数字，考察对比以及最高级也是家常便饭了。Pearl 之前真题也出过，想必也不陌生。

　　Section A

　　New Report One

　　A poisonous fish which has a sting strong enough to kill a human is invading the Mediterranean, warned scientists. The International Union for the Conservation of Nature (UICN) has raised concerns after the 1)poisonous fish was spotted in the waters around Turkey, Cyprus and the eastern Mediterranean. Native to the South Pacific and Indian Ocean, the potentially deadly fish has poisonous hooks and a painful sting capable of killing people. Although fatalities are rare, the stings can cause extreme pain and stop people breathing. The fish, often known as Devil Firefish, is a highly invasive species. And environmentalists fear its arrival could 2)endanger other types of marine life. After being spotted in the Mediterranean, a marine scientist says, “The fish is spreading, and that’s a cause for concern.”

　　Q1: What is reported in the news?

　　答案：A deadly fish has been spotted in the Mediterranean waters. (原文匹配度很高)

　　Q2: What is the environmentalists’ concern of the spread of Devil Firefish in the Mediterranean?

　　答案：It could pose a threat to the other marine species. (同义替换大于视听一致)

　　New Report Two

　　3)Almost half the centre of Paris will be accessible only by foot or bicycle this Sunday to mark World Car-Free Day. This is in response to 4) rising air pollution that made Paris the most polluted city in the world for a brief time. Mayor Anne Hidalgo promoted the first World Car Free Day last year. Hidalgo also has supported a Paris Breathes Day. On the first Sunday of every month, Paris clears traffic from eight lanes of the main road. About 400 miles of streets will be closed to cars. It is expected to bring significant reduction in pollution levels. “Last year’s car-free day showed a 40% drop in pollution levels in some parts of the city, according to an independent air pollution monitor”, reports the Guardian, “and some levels dropped by 50% in the city centre.”

　　Q3: What will happen on World Car Free Day in Paris?

　　答案：About half of its city center will be closed to cars. (开篇句送分)

　　Q4: What motivated the mayor of Paris to promote the first World Car Free Day in her city?

　　答案：The rising air pollution in paris. (送分)

　　News report 3

　　A Philippine fisherman was feeling down on his luck 5)when a house fire forced him to clear out his possessions and change locations. Then, a good luck charm that he had kept under his bed changed his life.

　　6)The unidentified man had fished out a giant pearl from the ocean when his anchor got stuck on the rock while sailing off a coastal island in the Philippines ten years ago.

　　When he was forced to sell it, the shocked 7) tourist agent at Puerto Princesca told him that the 77-pound giant pearl that he had kept hidden in his rundown wooden house was the biggest pearl in the world, which was valued at £76 million.

　　The pearl of Allah, which is currently on display in a New York museum, only weighs 14 pounds. That is five times smaller than the pearl that the fisherman just handed in.

　　The monstrous pearl, measured at 1 foot wide and 2.2 feet long, is going to be verified by local experts and international authorities before hopefully going on display to attract more tourists in the little town.

　　Q5: What happened to the Philippine fisherman one day?

　　答案：His house was burnt down in a fire. (fire 短且快，容易忽略)

　　Q6: What was the fisherman forced to do?

　　答案：Sell the pearl he had kept for years. (零散信息拼凑)

　　Q7: What did the fisherman learn from the tourist agent?

　　答案：His monstrous pearl was extremely valuable. (对数字敏感即可，送分)
