听力教学是一门重要的语言技能训练课，在对外汉语教学中占有重要地位。教材是教学的依据，是一切教学活动的基础，而语料则是教材的主体。听力教学对语料具有极大的依赖性。本文选取1999年至2007年内间出版的四部典型的听力教材作为考察和研究的对象，根据教材编写的基本原则和教材评估的相关理论，对这四部教材的话题内容、体裁形式、语料长度、语料难度等四个方面进行了现状分析。在此基础上，指出这几部教材在编写上的优点和值得肯定的地方，同时分析其存在的问题和不足之处。最后，本文就上述四个方面提出了中级听力教材语料的编写建议。在话题方面，应以主题为主导编排，并注重语料的时代性和趣味性；在体裁方面，要以记叙体、日常对话体为主；在长度方面，要以400～600字的长语料为主，尽量避免超长语料，并且语料长短应考虑到学期课时的安排；在难度方面，句长不宜过长，生词量应控制在1000个左右，平均生词率应控制在8%左右，并以丙级词作为生词等级的主体。

Listening teaching is an important language skill lesson, it plays a significant role in the TCSL. Textbooks are the basis of teaching and listening materials are the main part of textbooks, therefore listening teaching is deeply dependent on the listening materials.This paper selects four typical intermediate Chinese textbooks that have been published from 1999 to 2007. According to the basic principles of compiling textbooks and some related theories of assessing textbooks, the paper analyzes the present compiling conditions from the following four ways: the theme of the materials, the style of the materials, the length of the materials and the difficulty level of the materials. On this basis, the paper indicates the advantages of the four textbooks which should be fully confirmed and promoted, while it also analyzes the deficiencies existing in these textbooks.The author also gives some suggestion about how to improve compiling the intermediate Chinese listening textbooks in four inspectives: Firstly, the language materials should be arranged by the theme . Secondly, the style of the texts should use dialogue narrative writing and as the main styles.Thirdly, in consideration of the teaching time, the length of the texts should be as long as 400 to 600 words and texts with more than 600 words should be avoided to the greatest extent. Fourthly, the length of sentences should not be too long and the quantity of new words should be controled at about 1000 and the average rate of new words about 8%. The C-level words should be the main words.
