ListPlot[ Transpose[{listA, listB}], Joined->True] will draw lines between the points. ListPlot[ {Transpose[{listA, listB}], Transpose[{listC, listD}]} ] will co-plot the two curves. And so on. One can also do the Transposes in advance: listAB = Transpose[{listA, listB}]; listCD = Transpose[{listC, listD}]; The trailing semicolons prevent the whole matrix from being printed out at length.
