醫學考博英語聽力部分的話題都是與醫學相關的，涉及到的醫學詞彙也相對專業和複雜。醫學專業詞彙通常詞形較長，音節較多，而我們接觸醫學英語時又處在大學高年級及研究生階段，對詞彙的把握已不再注重讀音訓練，但是這並不意味着我們高級階段的醫學生可以忽視這種練習。
在平時學習的學習中，應對照詞典音標，有意識的培養自己對詞形長、難記憶的醫學詞彙的辨音能力。例如：
◇Last summer I was working in Washington，D.C. as an intern at the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology.
◇I'm ，a dermatologist，and tonight I will be speaking about the effects ofstress on the skin.
◇In fluenza often strikes people who are overtired，stressed-out and not eating nutritious foods.
在閱讀中，有些專業醫學詞彙對於我們醫學考博的考生來說並不生疏，但往往成爲我們聽力理解的障礙。我們平時學習英語都有這樣的體會，能看懂的東西不一定能聽懂，在大腦中沒有建立起相應的聽覺形象。所以考生在複習時要注意這類詞彙的把握。這類詞還有：
achromatopsia n.色盲
acne n.痤瘡，粉刺
ague n.瘧疾;寒戰
請考生據此，並結合個人的實際情況，注意將詞彙分類總結，可參照“醫學博士英語統一考試詞彙表”進行歸納複習。
比如我們可以這樣分類總結：①常見疾病名稱：measles麻疹;otitis耳炎;meningitis，腦(脊)膜炎;②醫院設施及設備、工具：gauze紗布;ward病房;③診療方案：percuss叩診;palpation觸診;tomography.斷層X線照相術;④組織器官：waist腰，腰部;ventricle心室;retina視網膜;⑤醫學分科名稱：microbiology微生物學;orthopedics骨科學。
文本規律(語法特點)
聽力訓練的一個階段是聽懂“語法”，也就是聽者在長期的語言學習中對句子、篇章的結構形成的印象。在聽力測試時，這種印象會幫助我們預知下文可能出現的句式和情景邏輯。而這種能力的形成無疑要依賴於對句中和篇章中的過渡關聯詞的準確把握。
英語是一種表音文字，其語音、構詞或者造句都不同於漢語。學習英語必須將感性認識提高到理性認識，並利用語言的規律性來指導語言的實踐。語法是語言的組織規律。掌握一定的語法知識，對於正確理解語意，提高英語聽力水平大有好處。通常看不懂句子的結構就無法瞭解句意，更不用說聽懂複雜的長句了。沒有語意方面的知識，就無法意識到篇章內的不同組成部分之間在意義上的聯繫。
注意篇章中的關聯過渡詞，也就是把文章包含的幾個意羣連接起來的詞或短語，用英文表示爲"organization words"，比如：first，then，next，after that，and finally。章就是靠着這些關聯過渡語句，形成了自己獨特的風格，若掌握了這些規律，就可以在聽短文時做到心中有數，能很好地順應作者的邏輯。
