ScalersTalk听力零阶段小组是ScalersTalk旗下听力狂练小组的子群，在零阶段小组连续十天听写慢速VOA的正确率达到95%以上的成员将被邀请进入狂练小组。为了进一步促进学习效果，ScalersTalk听力小组自2016年起，已经转为成长会内部小组，不再接受外部申请。听力零阶段训练组目前50人，每两周清退一次，便移除排在末尾的一位。详情请参见[386]ScalersTalk听力狂练小组成立与行动召集
题目的设置有如下几种形式
-
填空题。目的是复习大家听写时遇到的生词和听辨难点，测试词汇和听辨技巧掌握情况；简单文章听一遍，复杂文章听两遍。
-
翻译题。目的是掌握文中地道的短语和语法结构
本次复盘分两个阶段进行
-
第一阶段：听写练习。逐篇听英语材料，完成填空，巩固听辨技能。
-
第二阶段：交流学习。从本周行动力（如听写篇数、时间）、听写结果与预期的差异（如心理预期、结果）、错漏原因(如背景知识、语音辨识、词汇掌握程度、语法、拼写准确性、理解力）和个人成长进步（如体会、收获）四个方面发现问题产生的原因，并提出解决方案

主持人Temple分享
先听一遍，听懂新闻，再断意群，这样对听力的提高比较有帮助。要顺着文章的意思来听写，不要太纠结个别词语。读音相近的词还是比较多的，如果抛开上下文，就没法做了。升级测试跟平常的练习有不小的难度差距，希望升级的小伙伴要注意自己先练习常速的材料。
