聽(tīng)力部分的應(yīng)考策略及樣題分析
    下面就針對(duì)托業(yè)的聽(tīng)力部分做一個(gè)針對(duì)性分析。托業(yè)考試的聽(tīng)力部分是相對(duì)較難的考試環(huán)節(jié)。主要原因是聽(tīng)力時(shí)間偏長(zhǎng),中國(guó)考生很不適應(yīng)。
    Part I: 圖片題(Photographs)
    簡(jiǎn)單的來(lái)說(shuō),就是看圖說(shuō)話。你會(huì)看到如下的一張圖片 。
    你需要聽(tīng)出來(lái)的是四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中哪一項(xiàng)的描述了這張圖片。
    (A) They’re leaving the room.
    (B) They’re turning on the machine.
    (C) They’re standing near the table
    (D) They’re reading the newspaper.
    這道題的正確答案是C。
    很多人看這張圖片的第一反應(yīng)是他們正在討論某個(gè)話題。但是在被選項(xiàng)中,卻沒(méi)有出現(xiàn)discuss這個(gè)關(guān)鍵詞。因此,對(duì)于圖片題來(lái)說(shuō),切忌先入為主,設(shè)定關(guān)鍵詞。你需要做的就是尋找選項(xiàng)與圖片之間的吻合度。大多數(shù)情況下正確答案都是對(duì)這個(gè)場(chǎng)景的第三方描述。
    Part II: 問(wèn)答題(Question-Response)
    這部分的題目給考生帶來(lái)的困擾來(lái)源于從考題獲得的信息量偏少。
    你可以看到僅僅是 Mark your answer on the answer sheet
    你不但要聽(tīng)題干,更要聽(tīng)被選項(xiàng)。例如:
    Ms. Morikawa has worked here for a long time, hasn’t she?
    (A) At three o’clock.
    (B) No, I’ve lost my watch.
    (C) More than ten years.
    答案是C。你需要設(shè)身處地從題干的角度來(lái)選擇恰當(dāng)?shù)幕卮?。中?guó)的同學(xué)已經(jīng)習(xí)慣從選項(xiàng)中推測(cè)對(duì)話的內(nèi)容,做到心中有數(shù)。但是這里你沒(méi)有辦法這么去做,因此對(duì)于你的實(shí)際環(huán)境里的交流能力作出了測(cè)試。
    Part III: 對(duì)話題(Conversations)
    這部分是中國(guó)考生最熟悉的類型。聽(tīng)取一段對(duì)話,大約4句,然后回答2-3道問(wèn)題。例如:
    (Woman) I think I’ll have to take the train to the regional sales meeting up in the city next week.
    (Man) don’t you usually drive when you go to those meetings? I thought you didn’t like to take the train.
    (Women) I don’t, but the highway’s being repaired, and I’m afraid I might be late if I have to make a detour through an area I don’t know very well.
    (Men) you’re right. and it’ll be expensive to park up there, too
    你需要回答一些問(wèn)題諸如
    Why is the woman going to the city?
    (A) To attend a sale
    (B) To go to a meeting
    (C) To get her car repaired
    (D) To go on a tour
    在這個(gè)題目中就明顯的包含了幾種常見(jiàn)的可能出現(xiàn)的錯(cuò)誤。比如,原文當(dāng)中有detour(繞開(kāi))這個(gè)詞,而D選項(xiàng)中tour來(lái)迷惑考生。整個(gè)對(duì)話的主題是圍繞著交通展開(kāi)的,會(huì)讓考生錯(cuò)誤的選擇C選項(xiàng)。正確的答案是B,因?yàn)楸绢}問(wèn)的是女生去城市的目的,而不是手段。正確的信息來(lái)源是 to regional meeting。
