托福lecture怎么听-托福听力lecture常见技巧1.听好开头,抓到主题词,跟随教授思路,积极猜测要听好开头,我们就要熟悉教授开篇的说话套路,有这么几种:开门见山抛出话题,回忆上节课内容,或者引出的,比如用时代背景引出,用例子引出,用同学的提问引出的。
(1) 直接展开l today we are going to be talking about…l I’d like to begin my lecture by introducing…l let’s focus on…l let’s now take a look at…(2) 问答式展开l how are companies typically structured?l Do you remember what they are?l How can you understand it?l Why does human being consider it important?有时教授就是没说明今天要讲的内容,那就边听边确定主旨。
例如TPO20-6的生物学场景lecture,在文章的开头教授先提到the state of Maine,又提到那里的天气:snow,最后才说到adaptation(文章的主旨)。
其实只要我们清楚生物学场景的主要考点:动物、植物、生物科技相关话题。
就不难推断出文章真正的主旨,2. 剖析正文的常用结构,熟悉考点位置正文有不同的展开形式。
有教授的独角戏,有教授的大部分独白加上几处师生互动,也有通篇都是互动的讨论性讲座,只不过较少。
所以我建议把正文可以分出互动和独白的两个部分,来剖析结构。
1)互动部分:第一种结构是教授提问,主动权在教授手里,课堂还是沿着教授思路往后推动;第二种结构中同学的提问打断了教授的思路,教授要去回答同学的问题,改变了原有的思路,教授会沿着同学的提问内容展开。
2)独白部分,也就是教授一个人在讲述要点,讲座中往往有好几处独白,这些独白有一定的结构特征。

I know it's Friday afternoon and all, but this is kind of an emergency.Supervisor: Oh, what kind of emergency? Exactly?Student: Well, I mean, there's no danger or anything. It's like a personal emergency. It's about my apartment.Supervisor: Well, I really only deal with dormitories.

All right. Now, what's the problem?Student: My stove isn't working at all. It won't even turn on.Supervisor: It's electric?Student: Yes.Supervisor: Okay, our electrician is out today, his daughter is getting married tomorrow. So realistically he probably won't get to it until Monday afternoon. Perhaps Tuesday.Student: Really, we have to go without a stove for a whole weekend, possibly more?Supervisor: Yes, as you pointed out, this is not a dire emergency, so it's going to be handled under the normal maintenance schedule, which is Monday through Friday. And I know for a fact that Monday is already pretty tight, the electrician will have a lot to catch up on. So when I say possibly Tuesday, I'm just trying to be realistic.Student: But I really rely on that stove. I don't have any kind of on campus dining arrangement or contract.Supervisor: Well, I understand, but …Student: And it's not even the whole problem. I'm expecting a bunch of people to show up tomorrow night. I'm going to be hosting a meeting of the editorial staff of the school paper.

I'm sorry.Student: I just got finished shopping for all the food for the meeting. Ah. I guess, I'll just have to call it off.Supervisor: Why would you cancel the meeting?Student: Well, I mean, I could do it next week.Supervisor: Couldn't you like use a neighbour or something?Student: I don't think so. I mean, the only neighbors I really know, well enough to ask the guys next door, if you saw the state of that kitchen, you'd understand. I'm not sure I could find the stove under all the mess.Supervisor: I see. Well, we could try to set you up in one of our conference rooms in the Johnson building.Student: Really? I thought that student groups couldn't book the rooms in Johnson.Supervisor: Well, normally they can't. However, given your situation, I can try to put in a word with some people and see if we can make an exception here. There is also a full kitchen in the Johnson building, so you'd be covered there.Student: Okay. Yes. That definitely would work. Um. Do you have any idea when you know if you can make this happen or not? Because I'll need to let people know.Supervisor: Yeah, I understand people need to know what's going on. Um. Let me get back to you in an hour or so on this. Can you leave me your phone number?Student: Sure. Thanks.题目1.Why does the woman go to see the facilities supervisor?A.

托福听力对话和讲座出题点对应各题型细节精讲托福听力无论是对话还是讲座都会给考生提供大量信息,而这些信息也会为大家之后解答各类难题提供参考帮助。
下面就和大家分享托福听力对话和讲座出题点对应各题型细节精讲,希望能够帮助到大家,来欣赏一下吧。
托福听力对话和讲座出题点对应各题型细节精讲出题点1:开头—对应全文主旨题这一考点基本上大家都知道,主旨题就是第一题,差不多只有三种问法:1. Whats the main purpose of the lecture?2. What does the conversation/lecturemainly about?3. Why does the student go to see theprofessor?主旨题对应的句子在听力内容的开头部分,大约2-3句话。
在conversation中,一般情况下professor会先跟学生闲聊,比如问一下最近参加的某某的活动怎么样,上次考试的感觉如何等等,这些都是与主旨无关的,直到学生自己讲到I come to seeyou because I have a problem/question that...这之类的话,这时候就要注意听,拿笔开始记了,学生所讲到的就是全文的主旨。
在lecture中,professor一般会先回顾上节课所学的内容,会讲一大段,这些都是无用信息,完全不用听,一般是Last class we talked about/discussed/focused on...这个部分教授要么是讲得很快,要么是专业术语特别多。
重点在后面,当讲到today we will continue/shift to/focus on..., 这里就要开始记录了,professor开始讲这节课要学的内容了。
出题点2:结尾—对应倒数第2、第3题ETS非常喜欢在结尾出题,就是进度条快走到头的时候,这时候千万别松懈。
美国人一贯总分总逻辑结构,开头结尾都是非常重要的。

问1:我马上要考试了,心里七上八下的,也没心复习。
不知我在等待期间该复习什么,请指点。
我的情况是听力很差,但我的老托听完了,所有手边的练习也都做了,包括BARRON、DELTA、OG等。
现在,我该做什么呢?该怎么学呢?该使用什么材料更好一些呢?答1:(1)没等着考试时,考试之前在做着什么,现在仍然需要做什么;如果你现在不知道做什么,说明你的之前的备考存在问题。
(2)马上接近考试日期的人和中长期备考的人的区别不是选取材料的不同,更不是采取学习方法的不同,而是——心态的不同。
如果你还有一个月考试,那么你的压力更大,投入的需要更多;如果你还有三个月才考试,那么你的压力明显没有即将考试的人大,而且一定不会有时间放松或放纵自己。
简而言之:学习方法都一样,材料都一样,但是马上面临考试的人一定比中长期准备的人要更节制自己,更珍惜时间,更努力。
(2)什么时候考试是你把握不了的,你努力的着急或没心思复习都是没有用的;但以什么样的实力去考试是可以把握的,你只着急却不努力提高实力是没有用的(3)你的老托听完了?怎么听的?听完后得到了什么?缺陷都找到了并弥补上了吗?过程上听完不重要,重要的是听完后有什么结果!(4)手边的练习也都做了?怎么做的?只是对了答案?还是认真分析题目及文章?(5)如果以上的材料都是用心完成的并都有所得,那么恭喜你,你不需要再准备了;但如果以上的材料你只是做过而已,那麻烦你想清楚自己做材料的目的是什么?为了得到什么?和已经得到什么?问2:我总是听得特慢怎么办啊?短些的句子听1、2遍就写下来了,长句子大概听4遍,然后对原文,然后再听一遍,然后写第二句……听完一整遍再通篇听一遍同时记笔记,可是为什么我3、4个小时根本听不了几篇啊?是不是有什么地方不对的?哪个环节太慢了?还有,为什么我跟家听写听得挺好,可一上课做题就做得一塌糊涂的?我发现上课做题的时候我边听边记,可是记了前面的后面的就落下听不着了,这个是不是速记能力的问题?每天练听写能练出来吗?还是需要别的练习呢?每次上课的时候我都觉得我两只耳朵化作一缕青烟消失不见了……答2:(1)你的最主要的问题就是句子一念,你记了前落了后,我们可以称为:听力型瞬间失忆。

I really need to speak with professor Clark right away. Could you get me into see her?Assistant: Well, she is conducting oral exams right now, I can't interrupt her. The exams began at 8:00 this morning and are scheduled to go on all day.Student: But I was supposed to take my oral at 9 this morning, and well I don't know what happened, my alarm clock didn't go off for some reason and I overslept.Assistant: Oh dear!Student: I know it's like, really embarrassing, when I open my eyes and saw with already 9:30 I just got here as fast as I could.Assistant: Well,since you didn’t show up your schedule time. The professor would probably consider it an unauthorized absence. I’m afraid that it will translate into an automatic failing grade for that portion of the exam.Student: Oh no, and I was so prepared, I stayed up all night studying. Is there any way I can maybe reschedule it?Assistant: I don't know what to tell you Randy. As I said professor Clark will be examining students to four o'clock today and all day tomorrow, then it’s the weekend.Student: What about like, first thing Monday morning?Assistant: No, Monday is not possible, exam week ends tomorrow when the dean, it's the dean who says the university’s rules on these matters, you know, not the professors. The dean is very strict about granting extensions except under extraordinary circumstances.Student: Um, so, I guess the defect of alarm clock wouldn’t account as extraordinary, huh.Assistant: I'm afraid we’re talking something more on the order of illness or if you had an unavoidable conflict, like an exam in another class schedule for the same time. But you know, since exam week isn't over yet, it probably would be worthwhile trying to speak with professor Clark, she might be able to find a solution.Student: You now, the oral part of the exams only an half hour long, do you think she’d be willing to stay later this afternoon or coming a littleearly tomorrow ?Assistant: I'm sure should do her best. But I can't speak for her of course. Student: But I can't just stick around all day waiting for her. Do you think she will be breaking for a lunch.Assistant: Well, I hope so for her sake, let me check her schedule again. Well, she's got student’s schedules to noon, then she has one hour break before the afternoon exams schedule begins. So yes, she apparently does plan to break for lunch.Student: Noon, ha.Assistant: That's what it says.Student: Okay, why don't I come back at noon then, but if you happen to see her in the meantime, would you please say I was here and that I'm really sorry I was late for my exam.Assistant: Of course, good luck!题目1.What problem does the student have?A.

The professor will get tired unless she takes a break.D. The exams will end early in the afternoon.答案D A B AD C译文1.学生:嗨!我是Randy Beecham,我真的需要和Clark教授马上谈一下。
首先回答的两个问题:1 为什么要有所为的解题技巧和原则?通常一个Lecture的出题点都是有规律的,一篇文章5分钟,通常跟着5/6个题目,对应了全文至多10句话,因此需要总结解题技巧和原则,帮助你在5分钟的听力里面听出来10-15句话左右;【注意】:这种方法训练听到的重点会高于考点的句子的,即你听到的不是全考,但你没听到的,一定不考2 关于如何训练:简单来说就是反复地听,你没事儿的时候就听,吃饭的时候,晚上睡觉之前,早上醒来睁开眼那会儿就听!听!听!直到听到有一天,文章一出现那些出题点你立刻就反应出来了,然后立刻就记下来了,你就算是训练到家了。
经典重要出题点1 开头→→对应了全文的主旨题,几乎99%的必考题目;关于主旨题的解题方法:一般都会出现在文章起始处的2,3句话内,但也有例外情况,就是上来教授兴致冲冲的讲了一个咱们看来无聊的例子,没关系例子不用听懂(但是如果你不巧恰好听懂了,那么恭喜你,可以帮助你选对主旨题,因为例子为了说明他的这课讲了神马)经验:如果main idea 特别简单或者不具体时候,那说明教授后面还会对于idea进行解释,尽量努力听懂,因为这样会让你的整篇文章做的顺利【注意】:开头主旨题有两种不同的问法:A what is the main purpose of the lecture?这种问法是需要你自己概括这篇文章的观点是什么B what is the lecture mainly about? / what is the main idea of the lecture?这种问法的时候,答案通常是对具体的例子的总结,即教授在文章开头废话的那一堆;另:最前面的例子没听懂千万不要紧张,一般那都是ETS迷惑你的,他上来就不想让你听懂,让你紧张!所以要么说的特快,要么专业术语特多。
重要的是例子后面教授说的那句话。
2 结尾→→对应大概一篇文章2~3道考试题,重尾原则;ETS绝对是爱在结尾出题,因此,一定要时不时的盯一下进度条看看~~~~别错过了亮点句;3 Lecture中间,倒霉催的学生杀出来问问题:绝对的考点,学生问了神马不重要,重要的是A 听教授的态度,这个时候教授可能态度很诡异,突然就笑了,或者是轻蔑的说了一句神马话,尤其是在这种长的Lecture里面,教授突然说了句很短的话;不过遇到这种情况的时候,恭喜你,这里考重听题的几率蛮大的(即听不懂没关系,反正做题的时候他还会再放一遍);B 如果教授扯了一堆,那这里70%以上的就是考题所在了,通常教授回答学生问题的模式是这样的例子+观点/ 观点+例子;第一种情况出现的几率大一些,还是那句话,例子不重要,重要的是教授的观点;4 ETS灰常爱考的一类文章:比较对比类文章(compare & contrast)TPO里面这类文章所占的比率也很大,这类文章,两个事物的不同点是绝对的考点。
托福听力讲座题(lecture)的四大注意事项新托福听力考试的听力文章分为对话(conversation)和讲座(lecture)两种题材。
其中,讲座部分占到整个托福听力内容的三分之二,所占分值高达70%以上。
因此,把握好讲座部分无疑是新托福听力考试中的重中之重。
下面小编给大家带来托福听力讲座题(lecture)的四大注意事项。
托福听力讲座题(lecture)的四大注意事项讲座部分反映的是美国大学课堂的真实场景,其形式为教授独自进行学术知识讲解——独白,以及师生共同进行学术探讨——多角色讨论。
由于讲座内容均为学术知识的讲解,所涉及的学术领域多种多样,因此,讲座部分中生词较多,相关背景知识也较为复杂。
面对篇幅较长、题材多样、内容丰富的讲座部分,我们该从哪些方面着手呢?首先,要集中精力听准文章的开头部分。
在每篇讲座开始之前都会对整篇讲座内容作简短的开篇介绍,一般为一句话:Listen to part of the lecture in X class, the professor is talking about Y. 这里的X——学科名称,以及Y——主要内容,相当于给讲座内容指出了一个大的方向。
正式讲座开始后,先要注意听其主题,大多数的教授都会在课程开始时开门见山,点明主题,例如:Today we will talk about…或者Today we will focus on…, on或者about后面的内容要重点把握,这就是整篇文章的核心内容,可以帮助我们迅速抓住文章的主题。
其次,在抓住主题后,对可能听到的内容进行积极预测。
把握文章主题之后,要立刻集中精力抓住段落中的关键词和核心概念,迅速激活自己在该学术领域的相关知识,对可能听到的内容进行合理预测。
例如:如果讲座将介绍火山的相关知识,那么应该迅速预测接下来可能会听到火山的分类、不同类别火山的喷发时间、所在地点以及危害性等等。
这样带有“主动性”的去听,会对理解文章内容有很大帮助。

MALE STUDENT: Thanks for seeing me, Professor Jackson.FEMALE PROFESSOR: Sure, Tom. What can I do for you?MALE STUDENT: I'm gonna do my term project on service design, uh, what you see as a customer …the physical layout of the building, the parking lot. And I thought I'd focus on various kinds of eateries …restaurants, coffee shops, cafeterias, so I'd also analyze where you order your food, where you eat, and so on.FEMALE PROFESSOR: Wait, I thought you were going to come up with a hypothetical business plan for an amusement park? Isn’t that what you e-mailed me last week?I could've sworn …. Oh! I'm thinking of a Tom from another class.Tom Benson. Sorry, sorry.MALE STUDENT: No problem. I did e-mail you my idea too, though ….FEMALE PROFESSOR: Oh, that's right. I remember now. Restaurants …yeah …MALE STUDENT: So, here's my question. I read something about service standard that kinda confused me. What’s the difference between service design and service standard?FEMALE PROFESSOR: Service standard refers to what a company …employees …are ideally supposed to do in order for everything to operate smoothly. The protocols to be followed.MALE STUDENT: Oh, OK.FEMALE PROFESSOR: Um, so backing up…Service design is…uh, think of the cafeteria here on campus. There are several food counters, right? All with big, clear signs to help you find what you're looking for—soups, salads, desserts—so you knowexactly where to go to get what you need. And when you're finished picking up your food, where do you go?MALE STUDENT: To the cash registers.FEMALE PROFESSOR: And where are they?MALE STUDENT: Um, right before you get to the seating area.FEMALE PROFESSOR: Exactly. A place that you would logically move to next.MALE STUDENT: You know, not every place is like that. This past weekend was my friend's birthday, and I went to a bakery in town, to pick up a cake for her party. And the layout of the place was weird: People were all in each other's way, standing in the wrong lines to pay, to place orders…. Oh! And another thing? I heard this bakery makes really good apple pie, so I wanted to buy a slice of it, too.FEMALE PROFESSOR: OK.MALE STUDENT: There was a little label that said “apple pie,” where it's supposed to be, but there wasn’t any left.FEMALE PROFESSOR: And that's what's called a service gap. Maybe there wasn't enough training for the employees, or maybe they just ran out of pie that day. But something's wrong with the process, and the service standard wasn’t being met. MALE STUDENT: OK, I think I get it. Anyway, since part of the requirements for the term project is to visit an actual place of business, do you think I could use our cafeteria? They seem to have a lot of the things I'm looking for.FEMALE PROFESSOR: Well, campus businesses like the cafeteria or bookstore don't quite follow the kinds of service models we're studying in class. You should go to some other, local establishment, I'd say.MALE STUDENT: I see.FEMALE PROFESSOR: But just call the manager ahead of time so they aren't surprised.题目1.Why does the student go to see the professor?A. To find out all the requirements for a projectB. To discuss a service gap at a restaurantC. To get help understanding concepts relevant to his projectD.

托福听力对话类型-托福听力讲座类型〔托福〕听力对话内容共三种:(1)Student interactions(同学之间的学术讨论等);(2)Service encounters(工作人员与同学之间的非学术的询问);(3)Instructors'office hours(教授和同学之间的学术讨论和有关询问课程等问题)。
一、托福听力对话类型(1)Student interactions人物——同学之间。
地点——教室以外相遇。
内容——学术讨论(课程的内容,准备讲座),非学术讨论(借笔记,实习感受)。
(2)Service encounters人物——工作人员与同学。
地点——校园某办公室。
内容——非学术的询问。
例如:询问房租,怎样注册,怎样选课。
(3)Instructors'office hours人物——教授和同学。
地点——教授办公室。
内容——学术讨论和有关询问课程等问题。
例如:要求教授延期收作业(非学术讨论),教授解释讲课内容(学术讨论)。
二、托福听力讲座类型(1)Compare/contrast结构关于两事物相同点和不同点的介绍,如对比自然界中海洋和植物是如何控制空气中的二氧化碳。
(2)Cause-and-effect结构解释某种状况为什么会发生,如吸烟是如何对身体产生危害的。
(3)Abstract category/specific examples结构从抽象概念到具体的例子,或者从具体的例子得出一个概括的结论。
例如分别介绍瘦型体质、运动型体质、胖型体质,得出不同体质的思维方式不一样。
(4)Sequences结构讲座介绍一系列的步骤或阶段,如介绍人类在使用纸币之前的货币发展历史。
三、托福听力考试策略①熟悉说明的向导。
②考试开始时,迅速略过考试说明。
③注意听力考试的图片,可以帮助解题,图片表示班级、学校办公室,同时图片会出现相关的重要单词。
④注意对话和讲课的主要内容。
⑤不要在一个问题上花费太多的时间。
细数托福听力讲座类lecture中的4大重要出题点相对于对话类conversation,托福听力中的讲座类lecture在抓取记录出题点信息的难度上要高上不少。
下面我就和大家共享细数托福听力讲座类lecture中的4大重要出题点,盼望能够关心到大家,来观赏一下吧。
细数托福听力讲座类lecture中的4大重要出题点出题点1:听讲同学半路提问—对应imply题或者function题,100%考点1. professor的态度。
一般状况下老师对于提问的态度会非常诡异,比如突然傻笑,或者轻视的说一句不着边的很短的话,别可怕!这不是恐怖录音。
并且,这些做题的时候基本还会再放一遍。
关于教授的态度一般会出imply题,比如What does the professor imply/mean whenhe/she says this?Why does the professor say this?举个例子,比如老师在听完提问后讲了一个definition, 那么很有可能他前面是在示意同学对概念的理解有问题,于是他clarify了一下;或者老师在后面转变了一个话题,那么很有可能前面就是在示意他要转移重点了。
因此当我们听到imply的出题点的时候,肯定要留意教授后面的讲解,并适当做笔记。
2. professor下面的回答。
假如教授说道it’s a fair question之类的话,下面他就要开头绽开了,而这就是考点,通常教授的回答会是例子+观点/观点+例子。
这里可能会出功能题,就是问professor举这个例子有什么用。
出题点2:professor举的例子—对应功能题Professor举例子的时候肯定要把例子登记来,并且要知道他在例子之前说了什么,由于例子论证的一般都是前面的观点。
举例子的关键词有for example, for instance等,基本就是摆好架子要开说了,听到这些短语就抄起笔/竖起耳朵抓紧听吧。
托福听力讲座中的问答环节在托福考试听力部分,讲座篇幅较长,内容由于其学科性强也更复杂,因此很多学生认为讲座中很难抓住材料的重点。
但如果细究听力讲座类材料中的特点,其实有很多地方是具有暗示性的,讲座中的问答部分就是其中重要的一类。
一、以问题引导文章的主体走向。
和阅读材料相比,对于考生来说听力材料的一大难点就是难以对材料中的整体框架、语义走向进行宏观地把握。
在阅读材料中,我们单从文章的分段中便可大致划分出观点与观点之间的界限,但是在听力文章中,我们却无法做到如此“一目了然”,只能通过对整体信息的理解和一些提示性语句来自行分段、分类,听力中出现的提问部分就往往充当着“段落、语义划分提示句”的角色。
1.1独白型讲座中的自问自答在独白型的讲座中,教授对授课的内容、顺序以及主次占着绝对的引导权,而教授经常会通过提问(虽然是自问自答这种方法来引起学生的注意,推动内容的进行。
如TPO13中关于城市规划的讲座,这段听力材料中教授介绍了步行街获得成功的重要因素(Key considerations in creating a pedestrian mall,文章分步讲述了步行街兴起的原因(社会经济背景,步行街的特点(定义,步行街成功的两大因素(location and design,而这几大要点之间就是由一个个自问自答式的问题串联起来的。
文章结构如下:兴起的原因(社会经济背景+ So what did city planners decide to do about it? (引出步行街+ Now, what is a pedestrian mall?(步行街的定义+ So what does city planner learns about making thesemalls succeed? (步行街成功的两大因素+ OK, so that's location, but what about design? (引出“design”这一重要因素+ But now what if one ingredient to this planning recipe is missing? (引出反例证明观点由此不难看出,这些问句对于掌握全文的走向有重要指导意义。
1.2 互动型讲座中的问答环节在一部分的托福听力讲座中,教授和学生之间经常会有积极的互动交流,而在这一类文章中,教授和学生双方的问题就共同影响(“暗示”了部分或全文的脉络,这些问句在很大程度上就在提醒考生接下来会听到什么内容。
如TPO11中介绍了美国最流行的民居建筑风格,以及设计风格所遵循的原则:form should follow function 。
在这篇听力材料中,文章的各个语义部分也是通过一个个问题来衔接的。
文章结构如下:Does anyone know what the single most popular style for a house in theUnited Statesis today? (引入主题+ Now why did the Cape Cod style house become so popular in the northeast?(引入form should follow function的设计理念+ Who knows what the climate like on Cape Cod?(引入气候因素对设计的影响+ Now what can you tell me about the chimney, about its location.(进一步探讨这一设计理念的现实体现二、问答中的细节、功能和态度考点细节题、功能题和态度题是托福听力考试中常见的题型,在听力考试中所占比重很大,而这几类题型的出题点也常常出现在听力材料的问答部分。
2.1 问答中的细节题“如何抓细节”,“什么是重要细节”是让很多考生头疼的问题,除了我们经常提到的例子考点、定义考点和强调考点外,在听的同时,我们还可以以问题为导向抓细节。
通过分析听力材料,我们可以得出,不论是教授还是学生的提问大都是针对某一具体观点、内容而问的,因此这一问一答中就是一个完整的细节点。
而且这些细节点往往都是非常重要的,因为如果是次要信息,教授或学生大可对此一概不提或一句带过,无需展开详述。
值得注意的是,在师生互动式的问答中,不但要根据问题记录对方的回答,还要注意回答之后提问者(多为教授对此的态度,如果是否定态度,那么考生尽可在刚才做的笔记后打叉做标记(一般这个错误的答案会出现在迷惑选项中,并且要注意否定之后马上会出现正确的答案。
“在问答中抓细节”这一方法同样适用于独白式的讲座,试想在这一类听力材料中,教授是所有内容的引导者和决定者,必定对自己所讲的内容、逻辑顺序以及重点要点了然于胸,那么教授为何要设置这种自问自答的环节呢? 无非是要引起学生的注意力,既然需要学生对这一部分多加关注那就必然是重点细节。
如TPO5的化学类文章中介绍了光谱学在现实领域中的应用。
文中教授以“What is Spectroscopy?”引出定义类细节“Well, the simplest definition I can give you is that Spectroscopy is the study of the interaction between matter and light.”,并以“ So, how do we use Spectroscopy? ”,“How and when they were made?”引出时间、方式等重要细节。
2.2 问答中的功能题功能题,要求考生听出话中隐含的意思,即言外之意,强调、提示以及更正错误等都是其中常见的句子功能类型,而问句的设置经常就起到这几种功用。
如反问句就是强调的一种重要方式,所谓反问句,即为了加重语气,突出重点而采用的形式。
我们知道如果在听力中出现“异常”情况经常是出题人故意“挖坑”,既然故意设置陷阱就经常会出题测验考生是否会被迷惑。
这些“坑”的表现形式就包括教授在提问过程中无人应答或学生在回答问题时吞吞吐吐、思维抛锚等,如TPO3 天文学文章中讲述了如何利用光谱学技术来测定天体上的化学元素,其中教授在以一种新元素为例说明光谱学技术的重要性时提问“Any guesses about what that element is? It actually turned out to be pretty common and I’m sure all of you know it.”,由此问题引出话题,但未得到学生的任何回应,因此教授进一步引导对此进行提示“ OK. Let’s try something else. Any of you happened to be familiar with the Greek word for‘sun’by chance?”这一问题就在文中明显起到暗示、提醒的作用。
2.3 问答中的态度题在托福听力的对话类文章中,交谈双方的情感态度往往是非常鲜明的,而讲座中的情感态度则相对较为含蓄,更多的考察的是教授或学生对某种理论、技术的看法,即是否相信某一理论能合理地解释某一现象,或对某一技术的未来发展前景是否看好,而这两类讲座中的情感态度经常会通过提问部分透露出来。
2.3.1学生质疑表态度在介绍某一research, study, guess, hypothesis, assumption时,经常会出现由学生提出质疑的部分,首先学生的质疑就表明了学生对此的态度,而教授对此的回应就紧接着体现了教授的态度。
如TPO4的生物学文章,教授介绍了动物特定行为“Displacement Activity” 及背后原因, 当教授以grooming 这种行为为例解释动物特定行为背后的原因时,学生对此进行质疑“Professor, isn’t it possible that animals groom because they’ve got messed up a little from fighting or mating? I mean if a bird’s feathers get ruffled or an animal’s fur, maybe it’s not so strange forthem to stop and tidy themselves up at that point”,说明学生对教授给出的解释持怀疑态度,而教授对此的回答“That’s another possible reason alth ough it doesn’t necessarily explain other behaviors such as eating, drinking or sleeping”则暗示与学生的推测相比,教授更倾向于之前的理论。
2.3.2教授自问自答表态度在很多的讲座中,尤其是在独白式的讲座中,教授经常会在讲座的结尾进行总结时就整篇文章所讲到的内容或其中的某些部分发表看法或进行评价,基于上文提到的一个目的——引起学生的注意力,这些评价和看法可能会以问答(自问自答,自问引起学生关注,自答标明态度形式出现。
如TPO 2 的心理学文章中主要讲述了肌肉活动和思维之间的关系,教授在详细介绍这一理论之后,在结尾明确提出“Are there alternatives to this motor theory —this claim that muscular activities are equivalent to thinking? Is there anything else that might account for this change in muscular activity, other than saying that it is thinking? And the answer is clearly yes. Is there any way to answer the question definitively? I think the answer is no”,用正反两个自问自答表明自己对这一理论的态度是“It cannot be completely proved or disproved”。
综合以上各点,不难看出,托福听力讲座虽然难度偏大,但并不是无规律可循的,准确把握听力材料中的问答部分对于理清全文脉络、稳抓重点是有一定的现实意义的。
