【点评】
本次四级短对话无论从对话内容还是从题目本身来看，整体难度相对简单，和往年该部分相类似，话题覆盖日常生活（生活琐事、看电影、旅游等）、校园生活、商务工作（会议、求职等）。
例如，对话2、6、7均涉及商务工作话题；对话3、4、5、8均涉及日常生活话题；对话1则为校园生活话题。
主要考查事实细节和推理判断，其中，事实细节题比重相对较大，这对于广大考生来说是有利的。
主要难词生词有：
solarheater“太阳能热水器”，travelagency“旅行社”，makeendsmeet“收支相抵”，makereservationsfor“预订，预约”，whatI'minamoodfor“我想吃什么”等，理解好生难单词对整个听力内容的把握大有裨益，所以考生平时应多积累一些词汇和常用表达。
