3）计算题
　　计算题在四级英语听力中属于比较难的题型，要求同学们不仅能分辨不同的时间、金钱等数量概念，还应能将听到的各个数量联系起来进行加减运算。如：
① M: Your son seems to have made much progress in playing the piano. Does he attend any piano classes?
W: Yes, he takes lessons twice a week, but from next week on, he will go to the class on Saturday evenings, too.
Q: How often will the woman's son have piano lessons from next week on?
A. Once a week.               B. Twice a week.
C. Three times a week.          D. Four times a week.
　　两次加一次自然是三次，答案是C。
② W: Professor Clark said that the mid-term exam would cover the first 15 lessons.
M: Really? I thought it only included the first 12 lessons. Then I must spend the weekend to go over the rest of the lessons.
Q: How many lessons must the man review over the weekend?
A. Five lessons.              B. Three lessons.
C. Twelve lessons            D. Fifteen lessons.
　　这是最简单的计算题，只要同学们不将答案误认为是C或D，就不会出错。 　　
③ W: Here's a 10-dollar bill. Give me two tickets for tonight's show please.
M: Sure. Two tickets and here is $1,40 change.
Q: How much does one ticket cost?
A. $1.40.         B. $4.30.          C. $6.40.         D. $8.60
　　10美元，两张票，找零1.40美元，说明每张票为4.30美元。
　　从以上例子可以看出，含有数量概念的题，对话中提到的数量一般不可能为正确答案，总要同学们进行一些简单的加减运算。
