How to enhance my English listening? I am a Chinese senior high student who intends to attend a university in America. And I am preparing for my TOEFL and ACT. But I have trouble in listening. Take my TOEFL test as an instance, I can get 29 or 30 points in reading section. Whereas for listening part, I tend to obtain a low mark, usually 20 points approximately. Without the improvement in listening, it is formidable to break through 100 points in TOEFL test, which does not allow me to go to Yale school(my target). And I tried watching American movies and utilized a multitude of other approaches,. My listening facility, however, has not been enhanced a lot. For instance, I can easily understand "state-of-the-art" if this phrase just appears in front of my eyes. But if I merely hear this, without seeing it, it is possible that I can barely distinguish it. To put it in a nutshell, I need some methods to strengthen my listening ability. Thanks a lot.
