    新托??荚嚨穆犃釉囀窃S多考托朋友都需要復習準備的,下面我們搜集總結(jié)了部分聽力經(jīng)典加試的題目、內(nèi)容和答案,希望能減輕大家的復習壓力,助大家快速熟悉掌握這些加試內(nèi)容。
    在托福改革后,新托??荚嚈C經(jīng)重復率變得很小,但是經(jīng)典加試的重復率極高,比如像大王花這道植物學題,和浪漫主義、新古典主義這道文學題目,以及神經(jīng)膠質(zhì)細胞這道微生物題目,考生一定要做到耳熟能詳,聽覺形象的快速建立。
    以下是新托福聽力經(jīng)典加試題之:浪漫主義詩歌
    literature 主要講了 18-19 世紀英國浪漫主義(Romanticism)詩歌的代表人Wardsworth 的詩。他是浪漫主義的鼻祖,但浪漫主義這個稱謂是后人加上的,不是他們本身這樣稱呼自己的(此處出題)。Romanticism 不是我們平時理解的 romance,和男女之間的愛情無關。Romanticism 針對的是commonpeople 而不是少數(shù)educated people,用的是simple language,描述的是日常生活中常見的事物,孩子,人類情感,以及自然和人類之間的互動。教授以自己為例,說自己在散步時感受到了這種互動(此處出題)與romanticism 針鋒相對的一種風格是neoclassicism 新古典主義,也是那位 romanticism 的鼻祖很反對的。neoclassicism 使用太多的 elaboration,如sky 不叫sky,而叫blue 什么的;bird 不叫bird,而叫feathered person。教授把該詩人的作品分為三個階段。早期的浪漫主義作品,主要描述植物的(花與草)詩歌。
    中期時是對一些社會現(xiàn)象的評論。后期時對早期的作品進行修改。目前文學界還是認為它早期的作品是最好的。(教授還說,他的詩越寫到后來越糟糕,反而早期的比較好,本文重點講了他第一階段的詩)。
    wordsworth, as we have said, is the chiefrepresentative 典型的 of some of the most important principles 原則 in the romantic movement, but he is far more a memberof any movement, through his supreme poetic expression of some of the greatestspiritual ideals he belongs among the five or six greatest English poets.
    first, he isthe profoundest interpreter of nature in all poetry. his feeling for nature hastwo aspects. he is keenly sensitive, and in a more delicately discriminatingway than any of his predecessors, to all the external beauty and glory ofnature, especially inanimate nature of mountains, woods and fields, streams andflowers, in all their infinitely varied aspects. a wonderful joyous andintimate sympathy with them is one of his controlling impulses.
    In the second place, wordswoth is the most consistentof all the great English poets of democracy, though here as elsewhere hisinterest is mainly not in the external but in the spiritual aspect of things. the obstinacy andthese poems are only the most conspicuous result of w's chief temperamentaldefect, which was an almost total lack of the sense of humor. regarding himselfs the prophet of a supremely important new gospel, he never admitted
    The possibility of error in his own point of view and was never able to stand asidefrom his poetry and criticize it dispassionately.
