想必所有的考生都在托福听力中遇到过这样一种题型—重听题，困扰着大家，毫无头绪无从分析，那么今天我就带大家来破解重听题的套路。

首先，要战胜敌人，就得充分了解敌人。从ETS官方对重听题的设置来看：重听题，往往在问speaker某句话的言外之意，这一点也是重听题的难度所在，不仅要听懂那句话，还要理解语境所以正确选项为accurately describes the speaker’s real meaning, purpose, or position

那么常见的提问方式有：

Whydoes the professor mention this…?（功能）

Whatdoes the student/professor imply when she/he says this…?（推断）

Whatdoes the man/woman mean when she/he says this…?（态度）

所以我们可以得出，重听题考查考生：

考生从文章整体去揣测某句话的潜在原因

考生应理解某一句话的功能

考生需要理解某句话所暗示的内容

通过speaker的语气和语境去揣测其真实含义

考生需要理解speaker对于某个议题的立场

分析完题目设置，让我们来看一下错误选项的特点：

1.Canincorrectly describe the speaker’s real purpose. For example, if the professor says something tointroduce a topic, the wrong answer choice might say that the professor saidsomething to give an example of the topic.

Why does the professor say this?

A. To point out an error.

B. To illustrate a point.

C. To propose an explanation.

D. To correct a misunderstanding.

解析：

(重听内容)So the octopus has the ability tomimic both the color and the texture of its environment. And it’s truly amazinghow well it can blend in with its surroundings. You can easily swim within afew feet of an octopus and never see it. 教授说的这段话知识为了强调章鱼的与环境融合这个特点。并不是在解释什么，也不是在更正之前的错误。

2.Canincorrectly describe the speaker‘s meaning. For example , if an idiomatic is given, an incorrectanswer choice might give the literal meaning of the speaker’s words.

Whatdoes the professor imply when she says this?

Thereis disagreement about the idea she has presented.

Shedoes not plan to discuss all the details.

Hernext point may seem to contradict what she has just said.

Thepoint she will make next should be obvious to the students.

解析：

（重听内容）It goes without saying，单从字面上理解，很多学生的第一反应是“它一句话都没说就走了。。。”答案惊人，目瞪口呆，但是通过上下文我们可以发现，这里professor的意思是接下来要讲的内容已经很明显了，不需要再解释了。

综上所述，要做对重听题，不仅要听懂句子，也要结合上下文理解.
