聽(tīng)力測(cè)試部分占整套英語(yǔ)試卷中總分的五分之一??梢哉f(shuō)聽(tīng)力測(cè)試的成敗關(guān)系到英語(yǔ)科目的成敗。同學(xué)們普遍認(rèn)為只要把原文聽(tīng)懂,就可以選出正確答案。誠(chéng)然,聽(tīng)懂原文是關(guān)鍵,但如何有效地聽(tīng)懂原文?聽(tīng)完后如何選擇?在這一系列過(guò)程中,有無(wú)可遵循的有效策略幫助學(xué)生提高選擇的正確率呢?
聽(tīng)力測(cè)試材料特點(diǎn):
1. 明確的語(yǔ)境:聽(tīng)力測(cè)試內(nèi)容表現(xiàn)的是真實(shí)的生活情景,涉及生活的各個(gè)層面。如:購(gòu)物、問(wèn)路、看醫(yī)生、談?wù)撎鞖?球賽)、聚會(huì)、邀請(qǐng)等等。
2. 明顯的口語(yǔ)特征:自然而地道的口頭語(yǔ);大量能表現(xiàn)口頭交談時(shí)說(shuō)話人的不同情緒的感嘆詞;多次出現(xiàn)停頓、重復(fù)、省略、重音;或自己打斷(糾正)自己等人們講話時(shí)特有的一些語(yǔ)言特點(diǎn)。如:“Excuse me, can/may I…” ,“It’s great seeing you here.”,“I mean…”,“Great idea”,“well”,“so”,“say”…
3. 平易的文字與簡(jiǎn)短的句子結(jié)構(gòu):整個(gè)材料中沒(méi)有生僻、超綱的詞匯,都是最常用的簡(jiǎn)單的詞語(yǔ)。句子結(jié)構(gòu)簡(jiǎn)單基本都是簡(jiǎn)單句。(因此只要平時(shí)注意練習(xí),自信,聽(tīng)力部分得分還是很容易的)
試題設(shè)置特點(diǎn):主要有四個(gè)方面:
1)主旨大意題:要求考生聽(tīng)懂語(yǔ)段的主要內(nèi)容,對(duì)對(duì)話有一個(gè)全面的領(lǐng)會(huì)和整體的把握。往往不會(huì)出現(xiàn)明確的提示。這類(lèi)題較難。一般設(shè)題 1-2 道。例如:
M: Well, I’d better be getting home now. It’s been great seeing you again.
W: Oh, it was nice seeing you too.
Q: What are the speakers doing?
A. Enjoying meeting each other.
B. Saying Good Bye to each other.
C. Planning to see each other again.
材料中并沒(méi)有出現(xiàn)“Bye, Good bye, see you, …”等告別的詞語(yǔ)。只有綜合全部對(duì)話內(nèi)容,并且抓住表述時(shí)態(tài)的關(guān)鍵詞it was nice seeing you too,才獲知“他們?cè)诟鎰e”。正確答案 B。
2)事實(shí)題:此類(lèi)題要求考生聽(tīng)懂語(yǔ)段中的某個(gè)具體事實(shí),如:時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)、人物、原因、目的、結(jié)果、數(shù)量、頻率、價(jià)格、比較、篩選等這類(lèi)題較容易,其選項(xiàng)往往是一個(gè)詞或一個(gè)短語(yǔ),可以從對(duì)話或獨(dú)白中直接找到答案。但有些事實(shí)卻要求對(duì)材料中的相關(guān)事實(shí)信息進(jìn)行加工,才能選定答案。往往是設(shè)題最多的項(xiàng)目(設(shè)題5-8道)。
例:W: Can I come to see you at ten, Professor Brown?
M: I’m sorry, Susan. I’m meeting my students then. Why not come half an hour later?
Q: when should Susan go to meet professor?
A. At 10:00 B. At 10:30 C. At 11:00
關(guān)鍵是兩點(diǎn):Can I come to see you at ten? ;Why not come half an hour later? 正確答案B。
3)細(xì)節(jié)題:此類(lèi)題要求考生聽(tīng)懂語(yǔ)段中的某個(gè)具體細(xì)節(jié),但有時(shí)細(xì)節(jié)是一些隱藏信息。一般設(shè)題 5-6 道。例如:
W: So, how long have you been here?
M: Just a couple of days actually. I’m on a big journey. You know, I’m visiting all the places of interest here.
Q: What’s the man doing?
A. He’s working in a hotel.
B. He’s visiting a young couple
C. He’s traveling around.
根據(jù) I’m visiting all the places of interest here. 便可得出正確答案 C。
例如:原聽(tīng)力錄音材料
Last summer I went on business to the small mountain village. Just before the day I was about to return, it rained heavily. The road was washed away. I could do nothing but telephone the boss. He said “just enjoy your holiday there”.
Q1.Why was “I” in the small village?
A. to repair the bridge B. to have a holiday C. to work
Q2. When can “I” return?
A.The rain stopped.
B.The road was repaired.
C. The holiday was over.
聽(tīng)的時(shí)候著力捕捉有用的信息,抓關(guān)鍵詞。這里應(yīng)抓住 on business, 1 小題答案選 C;再抓住 The road was washed away. 確定 2 小題的答案為 B。
聽(tīng)力測(cè)試題所選的短文(獨(dú)白)大部分是記敘文,通常圍繞 what,who,when,where,which,why 這幾方面來(lái)設(shè)計(jì)考題。聽(tīng)時(shí)一定要集中精力,抓住關(guān)鍵詞,切勿連蒙帶猜“碰運(yùn)氣”。
4)推理判斷題:這類(lèi)題要求在掌握整個(gè)語(yǔ)段材料內(nèi)容的基礎(chǔ)上對(duì)多種相關(guān)信息(包括說(shuō)話人的語(yǔ)調(diào)、語(yǔ)氣)進(jìn)行綜合分析并推理判斷出對(duì)話、獨(dú)白的背景,談話者的相互關(guān)系,以及他們各自的意圖、觀點(diǎn)和態(tài)度。一般設(shè)題 6-7 道。例如:
M: May I help you?
W: Yes, I’d like to try on some sports jackets. I prefer something like the one I’m wearing.
Q: Where are the two speakers?
A. In a department store
B. In a clothes factory
C. On a playground.
根據(jù)售貨員對(duì)顧客打招呼的用語(yǔ) May I help you? 及顧客的回答 I’d like to try on some sports jackets. 來(lái)推斷這段話是發(fā)生在百貨商店。答案 A。
聽(tīng)力測(cè)試的應(yīng)對(duì)技巧
高考英語(yǔ)聽(tīng)力測(cè)試旨在考查考生理解口頭英語(yǔ)的能力。第一節(jié)共 5 段簡(jiǎn)短對(duì)話,每段一個(gè)小題,錄音只播一遍。第二節(jié)共 5 段對(duì)話或獨(dú)白,共 15 小題,錄音放兩遍??傮w時(shí)間20 分鐘稍多一些。很多情況下并非能力上不行,而是心理上過(guò)分緊張,從而影響水平的正常發(fā)揮。記?。褐挥斜3至己玫木窈托睦頎顟B(tài),才能確??荚囍姓I踔脸0l(fā)揮。充分利用好發(fā)卷后開(kāi)考前的三分鐘左右時(shí)間,快速瀏覽試題及選項(xiàng)(每段對(duì)話或獨(dú)白之間的幾十秒時(shí)間同樣要利用起來(lái))。根據(jù)題干和相關(guān)選項(xiàng)可以預(yù)測(cè)一部分背景知識(shí),確定聽(tīng)音的重點(diǎn),使聽(tīng)音具有明確的方向和選擇性。尤其是聽(tīng)力部分的第一節(jié),因?yàn)椤爸蛔x一遍”更要認(rèn)真準(zhǔn)備。聽(tīng)力考試開(kāi)始,要邊聽(tīng)邊做,當(dāng)機(jī)立斷。有些同學(xué)聽(tīng)不清楚時(shí),緊張,心慌,以致影響后面的答題。聽(tīng)不清楚是正?,F(xiàn)象,而且題目之間無(wú)相關(guān)性。跳過(guò)去繼續(xù)下一題。另外沒(méi)有十分的把握,不要輕易的修改原來(lái)的選項(xiàng),尊重你的“初選”。
在平時(shí)的練習(xí)時(shí)要注意嘗試以下方法:
一、聽(tīng)前閱讀分析
高考時(shí)一般會(huì)提前 5 分鐘分發(fā)試卷,同學(xué)們?cè)?5 分鐘內(nèi)把 20 道聽(tīng)力題題干及選項(xiàng)讀完,一般不成問(wèn)題。另外,在聽(tīng)每道題前,還有時(shí)間再次閱讀各題,每題約 5 秒鐘。
考生在聽(tīng)前閱讀中應(yīng)完成下列任務(wù):
1.比較選項(xiàng),找出差錯(cuò),做上記號(hào)。
(1) 選項(xiàng)詞數(shù)少,一目了然
例1:What size is the man wearing?
A. Size 13 B. Size 14 C. Size 15
考生只要?jiǎng)澇?3、14、15即可。
(2) 選項(xiàng)詞數(shù)多,差別明顯
例2:Why does he also get on the same bus?
A. Because he is going to the post office.
B. Because he is going to the same way.
C. Because he is going to the station.
只要在選項(xiàng)中的不同處劃上橫線即可。
(3) 選項(xiàng)詞數(shù)多,形式復(fù)雜
例3: Why doesn’t he see his aunt?
A. He is not allowed to see her.
B. His aunt doesn’t want to see him.
C. She is not here.
同學(xué)們可像上面所示的那樣先將關(guān)鍵詞作上記號(hào)。通過(guò)這項(xiàng)工作,我們能排除那些次要信息的干擾,有效的提高答題的正確率。
2. 根據(jù)問(wèn)題及選項(xiàng),猜測(cè)大意。
例4: Who introduce George to Jane?
A. George’s friend B. Jane’s friend C. George himself
我們可以由“introduce”一詞猜測(cè)到這是一段有關(guān)介紹的對(duì)話。通常介紹有兩種情況:一是自我介紹(選項(xiàng) C),一是他人介紹(選項(xiàng) A、B)。自我介紹常采用“I’m…/My name is…”,他人介紹采用“This is…”,“That is…”因此,只要在聽(tīng)力過(guò)程中,聽(tīng)出其中一個(gè)關(guān)鍵詞,就可做出正確的選擇。
在聽(tīng)前猜測(cè)中,同學(xué)們已經(jīng)作了積極的思考,對(duì)即將聽(tīng)到的原文有了初步的預(yù)測(cè),對(duì)原文可能涉及到的內(nèi)容有了大概的了解,這樣便有可能提高選擇的正確率。
二、聽(tīng)時(shí)抓關(guān)鍵詞,必要時(shí)做記錄
例5: W: Is Mary fond of music?
M: Well, she likes to listen to records but she’s never learned to play anything.
Q: What do we learn about Mary?
A. She likes playing the piano.
B. She is interested in listening to music.
C. She doesn’t like music.
原文中的關(guān)鍵詞為 listen,never… play 根據(jù)這些關(guān)鍵詞,不難選出正確答案 B。
聽(tīng)力過(guò)程中的記錄全在“快” 和“巧”字上。如果聽(tīng)力原文較長(zhǎng),且文中人物較多,事件較為復(fù)雜,所涉及到的數(shù)字或時(shí)間等信息多樣,考生則可在試卷空白處作些簡(jiǎn)單記錄。如用首字母、阿拉伯?dāng)?shù)字等。所作的記錄只要自己能看懂就行,不必苛求語(yǔ)法、單詞的正確。在這方面,平時(shí)要多訓(xùn)練,總結(jié)經(jīng)驗(yàn)。
三、聽(tīng)后分析判斷
選擇的答案與原文保持一致,才是正確答案。這種一致性表現(xiàn)在以下幾個(gè)方面:
1. 問(wèn)題及選項(xiàng)與聽(tīng)力原文形式一致。
例6: M: Great party, isn’t it?
W: It certainly is. Hi, I’m Lisa.
M: I’m James. Are you a friend of Roy’s?
W: Yes, we both work at the bank. How do you know Roy?
M: We play tennis together.
W: What do you do?
M: I teach arts at a university.
Q1: Where does Lisa work?
A. In a hospital. B. In a bank. C. In a university.
聽(tīng)出“I’m Lisa”和“We work at the bank”后即可選出 B 為正確答案。
Q2: How does James know Roy?
A. They work in the same university.
B. They play tennis together.
C. They know each other in the party.
聽(tīng)出“How do you know Roy?”和“We play tennis together.”后即可選出正確答案 B。
2.問(wèn)題及選項(xiàng)與聽(tīng)力原文意義一致。
例7: W: What nationality are you?
M: I’m from New Zealand.
W: Which part of New Zealand do you come from?
M: Wellington. It’s the capital.
Q: Where is the man from?
A. England B. An island C. New Zealand
這里的問(wèn)題“What nationality are you?”與“Where are you from?”同義,依此可根據(jù)“I’m from New Zealand.”做出正確選擇 C。
3.正確答案依據(jù)聽(tīng)力原文來(lái)推斷。
(1) 邏輯推理
例8: W: It’s terribly hot in this small room.
M:I agree. Would you mind raising the window a bit more?
Q: What does the man need?
A. A rest. B. A bigger room. C. More air.
根據(jù)“hot”及“raise the window”推斷出 C 為正確答案。
(2) 簡(jiǎn)單運(yùn)算
例9: W: When will the film begin?
M: It begins at 8:55. We only have 20 minutes left. Let’s go now.
Q: What time is it now?
A. It is 8:35. B. It is 8: 05. C. It is 8:15.
這里要用8:55減去還剩下的 20 分鐘,得出現(xiàn)在的時(shí)間是 8:35。 這類(lèi)題只要用簡(jiǎn)單的加、減、乘等運(yùn)算即可,除法極少用到。這類(lèi)試題,并不難做。關(guān)鍵要注意題目問(wèn)的是什么。不要想當(dāng)然。犯經(jīng)驗(yàn)主義的錯(cuò)誤。
(3) 概括總結(jié)
例10:M: You have been in London for several months. How do you like the city?
W: The only thing is the sun never smiles. It’s always gray and unhappy.
Q: What does the woman seem to unlike about London?
A.The unsmiling face.
B.The Londoners.
C.The weather.
原文中的“the sun never smiles”和“gray and unhappy”不是描述人,而是對(duì)天氣的描寫(xiě),考生不能誤解。正確答案應(yīng)是 C。
總之,聽(tīng)力測(cè)試所選的對(duì)話、短文(獨(dú)白)通常圍繞 what,who,where,when,which,why,how,how many(much),what time 等方面來(lái)設(shè)計(jì)考題。因此聽(tīng)時(shí)一定要集中精力抓住與之有關(guān)的關(guān)鍵詞,選出正確的選項(xiàng)。
聽(tīng)力試題對(duì)話部分解題技巧
關(guān)于時(shí)間、數(shù)字計(jì)算的試題
這類(lèi)試題都涉及到數(shù)字,很多時(shí)候涉及不只一個(gè)數(shù)字,做題時(shí)應(yīng)該反應(yīng)靈敏,可以記下一些重要的信息,同選擇項(xiàng)比較分析來(lái)解決。常見(jiàn)的提問(wèn)方式一般有:When…?/What time…?/How old…?/How much…?/How many…? 等等。另外,它所涉及的數(shù)字主要包括:日期、時(shí)間、年代、年齡、價(jià)格、數(shù)量、距離、房號(hào)及電話號(hào)碼等。就數(shù)字種類(lèi)來(lái)說(shuō),主要有基數(shù)、序數(shù)、百分?jǐn)?shù)、分?jǐn)?shù)等。做題時(shí),一般會(huì)出現(xiàn)幾個(gè)數(shù)字,而兩個(gè)或兩個(gè)以上的數(shù)字通常為計(jì)算題。所以我們要用到簡(jiǎn)單的加減乘除運(yùn)算,尤其要注意—些常見(jiàn)的詞。如:half,double,twice,one-third,percent,a pair,3 dozen,penny,cent 等等。
例1: M: Don’t worry, we still have time left.
W:What time does the train leave?
M:At 8:30. We have 35 minutes to go.
Q:What time is it now?
A.7: 55 B.7: 45 C.7: 50
[分析]去趕火車(chē)離8:30還有35分鐘,答案自然為 A。
例2: M:How much is the white shirt?
W: These shirts sell for 16 dollars each,but it’s 30 if you buy two.
Q:How much does the woman have to pay if she wants to buy just one?
A.$15 B.$16 C.$30
[分析]在對(duì)話中,提到買(mǎi) the white shirt 每件 16 元,兩件 30 元,只買(mǎi)—件當(dāng)然是16 元,故正確答案為 B。
例3: M:Did you know the news about the bank robbers?W:Yes,but I don’t know whether they have been caught or not.
M:All except one.He escaped while the police were searching the hotel where the other three were hidden.
Q:How many bank robbers were there altogether?
A.1 B.2 C.4
[分析] 3 個(gè)被抓住,1 個(gè)逃走,故一共為 4 個(gè),答案為 C。
關(guān)于地點(diǎn)、方向的試題
常見(jiàn)的提問(wèn)方式有:Where is…?/Where does the conversation probably take place?/Where are the two speakers now?/Where is the man going? 等等。考試中可以分為兩種情況:一是對(duì)話中涉及到幾個(gè)地點(diǎn),并且根據(jù)這些地點(diǎn)提問(wèn);二是對(duì)話中沒(méi)有出現(xiàn)具體的地點(diǎn)名稱,要求大家根據(jù)對(duì)話中所出現(xiàn)的特定場(chǎng)合來(lái)猜測(cè)與判斷說(shuō)話人在什么地方談話。常見(jiàn)的地點(diǎn)有:at the hospital;in the post office;at a hotel;at a restaurant;at the train station;in the library;in the bank;at the airport 等。我們就要抓住這些對(duì)話中的特定詞語(yǔ)來(lái)判斷,做出正確的選擇。
例1: M: Good morning. I would like to read some novels in English. What kind of books would you think I should borrow?
W: It might be a good idea to read some easy articles first. You will enjoy them more and be able to read fast.
M: That's a good idea. Thank you for your advice.
Q: Where did the conversation most probably take place?
A. In a library. B. In a bookstore. C. In a classroom.
[分析]對(duì)話中提及書(shū)、小說(shuō)等詞語(yǔ),但是從 borrow 可以很容易推斷出對(duì)話所發(fā)生的地點(diǎn)為圖書(shū)館,故正確答案為 A。
例2: W: Hello. This is Jane from the Great Wall Hotel. Is Tom at home?
M: No. Just now he phoned me he was on the way home, I think he will be back soon.
Q: Where is Tom now?
A. At the lab. B. At home. C. On the way back home.
[分析]根據(jù)回答,從多個(gè)地點(diǎn)中選出—個(gè)。故正確答案為 C。
例3: W: Dear, I feel hungry now. How about you?
M: So do I. Let me call Room Service. Hello, Room Service? Please send a menu to Room 810 right away.
Q: Where are the two speakers?
A: In a hotel. B. At a dinner. C. In the street.
[分析]從對(duì)話中的 hungry 和 menu 我們很容易想到與就餐有關(guān),從 Room Service 和 Room 810 得出說(shuō)話的雙方在旅館里。故正確的答案為 A。
還有一類(lèi)試題,是關(guān)于某一方問(wèn)路,或另一方準(zhǔn)備去哪里。出現(xiàn)的地名也比較多,我們要抓關(guān)鍵詞語(yǔ),篩選出正確的答案來(lái)。
例1: M: We want to take planes in Beijing to the seaside this summer holiday.
W: You’re going to Qingdao?
M:No. We went there last summer. This time we’d like to go to Dalian instead.
Q: Where does the man want to go?
A. Beijing. B. Qingdao. C. Dalian.
[分析]題中提到的幾個(gè)地點(diǎn),但是開(kāi)始男的就說(shuō)要從北京乘飛機(jī)去海邊度假,因此要仔細(xì)聽(tīng)清楚到底去哪個(gè)地方。然后可以得到答案 C。
關(guān)于人物關(guān)系、職業(yè)、身份的試題
這一類(lèi)試題要求我們?cè)谀骋惶囟ǖ沫h(huán)境下,對(duì)說(shuō)話人的身份進(jìn)行推理與判斷,常見(jiàn)的提問(wèn)方式有:What's the man(woman)?/What's the man’s(woman’s) occupation?/What’s the probable relationship between the two speakers? 等等,而且我們常見(jiàn)到的人物之間的關(guān)系有:doctor 與 patient;boss 與 secretary;shop assistant 與 customer;driver 與 passengers 或 policeman;teacher 與 student;reader 與 librarian;husband 與 wife;friends 之間等。
例1: M: This is Qianmen Avenue. Where would you want to get off?
W: There, in front of that big tree. That’s ok.
Q: Who is the man?
A. A waiter. B. A taxi driver. C. A conductor.
[分析]從 get off 可以知道對(duì)話發(fā)生在車(chē)上,但是要停在一棵大樹(shù)前而不是公共汽車(chē)站,我們可以判斷出為出租車(chē),而不是售票員,答案為 B。
例2: W: Need I take some medicine?
M: Yes. And I strongly advise you to go on a low-fat diet.
W:Do you really think that’s really important?
M: Of course. If you don’t, you might have a heart attack some day.
W: Well, I think I should follow your advice. You have been very helpful. Thanks.
Q: What’s the probable relationship between the two speakers?
A. Husband and wife.
B. Father and daughter.
C. Doctor and patient.
[分析]從兩個(gè)說(shuō)話者的語(yǔ)氣出發(fā)以及—些關(guān)鍵的詞語(yǔ) medicine, go on a low-fat diet,heart attack 等可以知道他們的關(guān)系為醫(yī)生與病人。答案為 C。
. 關(guān)于態(tài)度、觀點(diǎn)與看法的試題
這一類(lèi)試題所涉及到的是對(duì)話雙方所交談的對(duì)某人與某事或?qū)α硪粋€(gè)人的言行所做出的好惡、贊成等的態(tài)度以及情緒變化。常用的提問(wèn)方式有:What does the man(woman) think of… ?/How does the man(woman) like/feel about… ? 等。聽(tīng)這類(lèi)試題我們首先要判斷兩人的態(tài)度是否相同。如果不相同,我們要分清每個(gè)人對(duì)這件事情的看法,再做選擇。另外說(shuō)話人的態(tài)度是通過(guò)語(yǔ)氣、語(yǔ)調(diào)等的變化來(lái)體現(xiàn)出來(lái)的,因此,聽(tīng)的時(shí)候要特別注意語(yǔ)氣、語(yǔ)調(diào),做出正確的判斷。
例1: M: Linda, how are you getting along with your composition?
W: I have written and rewritten it so many times. But my teacher won’t let me through. I don’t know if I’ll ever get it finished.
Q: How does the woman feel?
A. Discouraged. B. Satisfied. C. Happy.
[分析]該題的關(guān)鍵在第二個(gè)說(shuō)話者的話里:“不斷的修改,不知道能否完成”,故正確的答案為 A。表明說(shuō)話者的不滿意,有些泄氣。
例2:
W: Why are you so angry?
M: I’m angry with Jack! He kicked his football through the classroom window. There was glass everywhere.
W: Oh, my God! Was there anyone hurt?
M: Yes, but fortunately not serious.
W: Thank goodness!
Q: How does the woman feel at the end of the conversation?
A. Angry. B. Happy. C. Upset.
[分析]在判斷女說(shuō)話者的感覺(jué)時(shí) yes, but 是關(guān)鍵詞,可以得知沒(méi)有人受重傷,她的心情應(yīng)該是高興的,故正確答案為 B。
例3: M: Do you really like the story?
W: Yes, I think it is excellent. The adventures of Huckle Berry Fin are fascinating.
M: I couldn't put the book down, either.
Q: What do the two speakers think of the story?
A. The man likes it but the woman doesn’t.
B. The woman likes it but the man doesn’t.
C. Both of them enjoy it very much.
[分析]“I couldn't put the book down.”的意思是“我無(wú)法把書(shū)放下,即書(shū)太吸引人,舍不得放下”,故正確的答案為 C。
關(guān)于建議、行動(dòng)、計(jì)劃的試題
這類(lèi)試題包括了說(shuō)話者建議做某事、決定做某事、讓某人做某事等。常見(jiàn)的提問(wèn)方式有:What does the man/woman want the woman/man to do?/What does the man/woman suggest the woman/man do?/What does the man/woman mean? 等。還有一些熟悉的表建議的常用句型:Why don’t you… ?/Why not… ?/How(What) about… ?/You’d better… /Would you like/please… ? 等。
例1: M: My roommate really upsets me. He’s always coming back so late and forgetting to bring the key to the door.
W: Have you spoken to him about it?
M: Well, actually not.
W: I don’t understand. If it bothers you so much, why don’t you mention it to him?
M: I guess I should. But I don’t like to complain.
Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?
A. Forget the things.
B. Find another room.
C. Complain to the roommate.
[分析]我們?cè)诼?tīng)錄音時(shí),關(guān)鍵在于女的所說(shuō)的這一句話“Why don't you mention it to him?”,故正確的答案為 C。另外,我們常見(jiàn)的“叫某人做某事”的表達(dá)方式有:ask sb. to do sth.;let sb. do sth.;get sb. to do sth.;have sth. done;have sb. do sth. 等。
例2: W: I have to phone my secretary before we leave.
M: There’s not much time left, you’d better get John to do it for you.
Q: What does the man suggest?
A. Use John’s telephone.
B. Call John instead.
C. Ask John to call the secretary.
[分析]“You'd better get John to do it for you.”意思為:你讓 John 替你做這件事情(即打電話給秘書(shū)),這里既有直接的建議,又有讓別人做某事之意。故答案為 C。
說(shuō)話者決定做某事,常用的句型有:Let's… /We might do… /We’d better… 等。常見(jiàn)的提問(wèn)形式有 What will the man(woman) probably do?/What do they decide/plan/ mean/intend to do?/What is the man(woman) going to do? 等。
例3: W: Tom said it would cost 300 dollars to have the car repaired.
M: We might as well spend 300 dollars more to buy a new one then.
Q: What would the man probably do?
A. To save $300.
B. To have Tom repair the car.
C. To buy a new car.
[分析]句中的 might as well 意思為“倒不如、還不如”,男的意思為倒不如花 300 美元買(mǎi)輛新車(chē)。故正確答案為 C。
例4: W: Do you think I should join the English speech contest?
M: Why not? Your English is very good.
W: But I don’t think I’m that good. Besides, there are so many others who are a lot better than I.
M: Come on, you're as good as them, if not better. I’m sure you’ll do well.
W: Well, I guess it won’t hurt to try. I'll enter my name tomorrow.
Q: What is the woman going to do?
A. She will join a contest next time.
B. She doesn't know what to do.
C. She will take part in the contest.
[分析]對(duì)話最后女的說(shuō)“我想試一試也無(wú)妨,明天我去報(bào)名吧”。故答案為 C。
關(guān)于原因、結(jié)果試題
這類(lèi)試題要大家弄清楚事情的因果關(guān)系。常見(jiàn)的提問(wèn)方式有: Why… ?/What's the reason for… ?
例1: W: Hello, Dan. My sister and I are going on a picnic this afternoon. Would
you like to join us?
M: That sounds wonderful. But I’ve been asked to fill in at work for a
man who is sick.
W: What a pity!
Q: Why can’t the man go for a picnic?
A. Because he is sick.
B. Because picnics are not wonderful.
C. Because he has to take the place of one of his colleagues.
[分析]從對(duì)話中我們會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn) fill in 是一個(gè)新的短語(yǔ),但是我們只要從上下文中來(lái)分析,它的意思會(huì)很快地得出的,為“暫時(shí)替代”。故正確的答案為 C。
例2: M: I hear you are moving to a new apartment soon.
W: Yes, but it’ll be more expensive. My present roommate plays the
computer all night long and I can't sleep.
Q: Why is the woman moving?
A. The new apartment is cheaper.
B. She doesn’t like computer.
C. She needs a quiet place.
[分析]從對(duì)話中的“I can’t sleep.”這一句,我們會(huì)得出答案為 C。
關(guān)于推理試題
該類(lèi)試題多為一個(gè)說(shuō)話人提出問(wèn)題、發(fā)出邀請(qǐng)或表明自己的觀點(diǎn)等,另一個(gè)人不做出正面的回答,而是說(shuō)出一些表面上毫不相關(guān)的話,或反問(wèn)做答,或重復(fù)對(duì)方話語(yǔ)的一部分。這類(lèi)題目要求大家能夠聽(tīng)懂說(shuō)話人的弦外之音,做出正確的判斷來(lái)。常見(jiàn)的提問(wèn)形式有:What does the man(woman) mean?/What can we infer from the conversation?/What do we learn from the man's(woman's) reply?
例1: W: I'm thinking of taking five courses next term.
M: Wouldn't four be wiser?
Q: What does the man imply about the course?
A. Five may be too many.
B. The decision must be made soon.
C. It would be smart to take more.
[分析]第二個(gè)說(shuō)話人用反問(wèn)的形式“你不覺(jué)得選四門(mén)更明智嗎?”來(lái)暗示選五門(mén)可能太多了。故正確的答案為 A。
例2: M: Did you watch the midnight film last night?
W: Yes, I watched part of it.
M: I really liked it. I thought it was really exciting.
W: Exciting? I fell asleep during the film.
Q: How did the woman feel about the film?
A. Enjoyable. B. Inspiring. C. Dull.
[分析]女的說(shuō)話時(shí),用升調(diào)重復(fù)了 exciting 一詞,表示不同意對(duì)方的意見(jiàn),接著還說(shuō)她在看電影時(shí)還睡著了。進(jìn)一步說(shuō)明她對(duì)電影不感興趣。故正確答案為 C。
聽(tīng)力測(cè)試部分占整套英語(yǔ)試卷中總分的五分之一??梢哉f(shuō)聽(tīng)力測(cè)試的成敗關(guān)系到英語(yǔ)科目的成敗。同學(xué)們普遍認(rèn)為只要把原文聽(tīng)懂,就可以選出正確答案。誠(chéng)然,聽(tīng)懂原文是關(guān)鍵,但如何有效地聽(tīng)懂原文?聽(tīng)完后如何選擇?在這一系列過(guò)程中,有無(wú)可遵循的有效策略幫助學(xué)生提高選擇的正確率呢?
聽(tīng)力測(cè)試材料特點(diǎn):
1. 明確的語(yǔ)境:聽(tīng)力測(cè)試內(nèi)容表現(xiàn)的是真實(shí)的生活情景,涉及生活的各個(gè)層面。如:購(gòu)物、問(wèn)路、看醫(yī)生、談?wù)撎鞖?球賽)、聚會(huì)、邀請(qǐng)等等。
2. 明顯的口語(yǔ)特征:自然而地道的口頭語(yǔ);大量能表現(xiàn)口頭交談時(shí)說(shuō)話人的不同情緒的感嘆詞;多次出現(xiàn)停頓、重復(fù)、省略、重音;或自己打斷(糾正)自己等人們講話時(shí)特有的一些語(yǔ)言特點(diǎn)。如:“Excuse me, can/may I…” ,“It’s great seeing you here.”,“I mean…”,“Great idea”,“well”,“so”,“say”…
3. 平易的文字與簡(jiǎn)短的句子結(jié)構(gòu):整個(gè)材料中沒(méi)有生僻、超綱的詞匯,都是最常用的簡(jiǎn)單的詞語(yǔ)。句子結(jié)構(gòu)簡(jiǎn)單基本都是簡(jiǎn)單句。(因此只要平時(shí)注意練習(xí),自信,聽(tīng)力部分得分還是很容易的)
試題設(shè)置特點(diǎn):主要有四個(gè)方面:
1)主旨大意題:要求考生聽(tīng)懂語(yǔ)段的主要內(nèi)容,對(duì)對(duì)話有一個(gè)全面的領(lǐng)會(huì)和整體的把握。往往不會(huì)出現(xiàn)明確的提示。這類(lèi)題較難。一般設(shè)題 1-2 道。例如:
M: Well, I’d better be getting home now. It’s been great seeing you again.
W: Oh, it was nice seeing you too.
Q: What are the speakers doing?
A. Enjoying meeting each other.
B. Saying Good Bye to each other.
C. Planning to see each other again.
材料中并沒(méi)有出現(xiàn)“Bye, Good bye, see you, …”等告別的詞語(yǔ)。只有綜合全部對(duì)話內(nèi)容,并且抓住表述時(shí)態(tài)的關(guān)鍵詞it was nice seeing you too,才獲知“他們?cè)诟鎰e”。正確答案 B。
2)事實(shí)題:此類(lèi)題要求考生聽(tīng)懂語(yǔ)段中的某個(gè)具體事實(shí),如:時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)、人物、原因、目的、結(jié)果、數(shù)量、頻率、價(jià)格、比較、篩選等這類(lèi)題較容易,其選項(xiàng)往往是一個(gè)詞或一個(gè)短語(yǔ),可以從對(duì)話或獨(dú)白中直接找到答案。但有些事實(shí)卻要求對(duì)材料中的相關(guān)事實(shí)信息進(jìn)行加工,才能選定答案。往往是設(shè)題最多的項(xiàng)目(設(shè)題5-8道)。
例:W: Can I come to see you at ten, Professor Brown?
M: I’m sorry, Susan. I’m meeting my students then. Why not come half an hour later?
Q: when should Susan go to meet professor?
A. At 10:00 B. At 10:30 C. At 11:00
關(guān)鍵是兩點(diǎn):Can I come to see you at ten? ;Why not come half an hour later? 正確答案B。
3)細(xì)節(jié)題:此類(lèi)題要求考生聽(tīng)懂語(yǔ)段中的某個(gè)具體細(xì)節(jié),但有時(shí)細(xì)節(jié)是一些隱藏信息。一般設(shè)題 5-6 道。例如:
W: So, how long have you been here?
M: Just a couple of days actually. I’m on a big journey. You know, I’m visiting all the places of interest here.
Q: What’s the man doing?
A. He’s working in a hotel.
B. He’s visiting a young couple
C. He’s traveling around.
根據(jù) I’m visiting all the places of interest here. 便可得出正確答案 C。
例如:原聽(tīng)力錄音材料
Last summer I went on business to the small mountain village. Just before the day I was about to return, it rained heavily. The road was washed away. I could do nothing but telephone the boss. He said “just enjoy your holiday there”.
Q1.Why was “I” in the small village?
A. to repair the bridge B. to have a holiday C. to work
Q2. When can “I” return?
A.The rain stopped.
B.The road was repaired.
C. The holiday was over.
聽(tīng)的時(shí)候著力捕捉有用的信息,抓關(guān)鍵詞。這里應(yīng)抓住 on business, 1 小題答案選 C;再抓住 The road was washed away. 確定 2 小題的答案為 B。
聽(tīng)力測(cè)試題所選的短文(獨(dú)白)大部分是記敘文,通常圍繞 what,who,when,where,which,why 這幾方面來(lái)設(shè)計(jì)考題。聽(tīng)時(shí)一定要集中精力,抓住關(guān)鍵詞,切勿連蒙帶猜“碰運(yùn)氣”。
4)推理判斷題:這類(lèi)題要求在掌握整個(gè)語(yǔ)段材料內(nèi)容的基礎(chǔ)上對(duì)多種相關(guān)信息(包括說(shuō)話人的語(yǔ)調(diào)、語(yǔ)氣)進(jìn)行綜合分析并推理判斷出對(duì)話、獨(dú)白的背景,談話者的相互關(guān)系,以及他們各自的意圖、觀點(diǎn)和態(tài)度。一般設(shè)題 6-7 道。例如:
M: May I help you?
W: Yes, I’d like to try on some sports jackets. I prefer something like the one I’m wearing.
Q: Where are the two speakers?
A. In a department store
B. In a clothes factory
C. On a playground.
根據(jù)售貨員對(duì)顧客打招呼的用語(yǔ) May I help you? 及顧客的回答 I’d like to try on some sports jackets. 來(lái)推斷這段話是發(fā)生在百貨商店。答案 A。
聽(tīng)力測(cè)試的應(yīng)對(duì)技巧
高考英語(yǔ)聽(tīng)力測(cè)試旨在考查考生理解口頭英語(yǔ)的能力。第一節(jié)共 5 段簡(jiǎn)短對(duì)話,每段一個(gè)小題,錄音只播一遍。第二節(jié)共 5 段對(duì)話或獨(dú)白,共 15 小題,錄音放兩遍??傮w時(shí)間20 分鐘稍多一些。很多情況下并非能力上不行,而是心理上過(guò)分緊張,從而影響水平的正常發(fā)揮。記?。褐挥斜3至己玫木窈托睦頎顟B(tài),才能確??荚囍姓I踔脸0l(fā)揮。充分利用好發(fā)卷后開(kāi)考前的三分鐘左右時(shí)間,快速瀏覽試題及選項(xiàng)(每段對(duì)話或獨(dú)白之間的幾十秒時(shí)間同樣要利用起來(lái))。根據(jù)題干和相關(guān)選項(xiàng)可以預(yù)測(cè)一部分背景知識(shí),確定聽(tīng)音的重點(diǎn),使聽(tīng)音具有明確的方向和選擇性。尤其是聽(tīng)力部分的第一節(jié),因?yàn)椤爸蛔x一遍”更要認(rèn)真準(zhǔn)備。聽(tīng)力考試開(kāi)始,要邊聽(tīng)邊做,當(dāng)機(jī)立斷。有些同學(xué)聽(tīng)不清楚時(shí),緊張,心慌,以致影響后面的答題。聽(tīng)不清楚是正?,F(xiàn)象,而且題目之間無(wú)相關(guān)性。跳過(guò)去繼續(xù)下一題。另外沒(méi)有十分的把握,不要輕易的修改原來(lái)的選項(xiàng),尊重你的“初選”。
在平時(shí)的練習(xí)時(shí)要注意嘗試以下方法:
一、聽(tīng)前閱讀分析
高考時(shí)一般會(huì)提前 5 分鐘分發(fā)試卷,同學(xué)們?cè)?5 分鐘內(nèi)把 20 道聽(tīng)力題題干及選項(xiàng)讀完,一般不成問(wèn)題。另外,在聽(tīng)每道題前,還有時(shí)間再次閱讀各題,每題約 5 秒鐘。
考生在聽(tīng)前閱讀中應(yīng)完成下列任務(wù):
1.比較選項(xiàng),找出差錯(cuò),做上記號(hào)。
(1) 選項(xiàng)詞數(shù)少,一目了然
例1:What size is the man wearing?
A. Size 13 B. Size 14 C. Size 15
考生只要?jiǎng)澇?3、14、15即可。
(2) 選項(xiàng)詞數(shù)多,差別明顯
例2:Why does he also get on the same bus?
A. Because he is going to the post office.
B. Because he is going to the same way.
C. Because he is going to the station.
只要在選項(xiàng)中的不同處劃上橫線即可。
(3) 選項(xiàng)詞數(shù)多,形式復(fù)雜
例3: Why doesn’t he see his aunt?
A. He is not allowed to see her.
B. His aunt doesn’t want to see him.
C. She is not here.
同學(xué)們可像上面所示的那樣先將關(guān)鍵詞作上記號(hào)。通過(guò)這項(xiàng)工作,我們能排除那些次要信息的干擾,有效的提高答題的正確率。
2. 根據(jù)問(wèn)題及選項(xiàng),猜測(cè)大意。
例4: Who introduce George to Jane?
A. George’s friend B. Jane’s friend C. George himself
我們可以由“introduce”一詞猜測(cè)到這是一段有關(guān)介紹的對(duì)話。通常介紹有兩種情況:一是自我介紹(選項(xiàng) C),一是他人介紹(選項(xiàng) A、B)。自我介紹常采用“I’m…/My name is…”,他人介紹采用“This is…”,“That is…”因此,只要在聽(tīng)力過(guò)程中,聽(tīng)出其中一個(gè)關(guān)鍵詞,就可做出正確的選擇。
在聽(tīng)前猜測(cè)中,同學(xué)們已經(jīng)作了積極的思考,對(duì)即將聽(tīng)到的原文有了初步的預(yù)測(cè),對(duì)原文可能涉及到的內(nèi)容有了大概的了解,這樣便有可能提高選擇的正確率。
二、聽(tīng)時(shí)抓關(guān)鍵詞,必要時(shí)做記錄
例5: W: Is Mary fond of music?
M: Well, she likes to listen to records but she’s never learned to play anything.
Q: What do we learn about Mary?
A. She likes playing the piano.
B. She is interested in listening to music.
C. She doesn’t like music.
原文中的關(guān)鍵詞為 listen,never… play 根據(jù)這些關(guān)鍵詞,不難選出正確答案 B。
聽(tīng)力過(guò)程中的記錄全在“快” 和“巧”字上。如果聽(tīng)力原文較長(zhǎng),且文中人物較多,事件較為復(fù)雜,所涉及到的數(shù)字或時(shí)間等信息多樣,考生則可在試卷空白處作些簡(jiǎn)單記錄。如用首字母、阿拉伯?dāng)?shù)字等。所作的記錄只要自己能看懂就行,不必苛求語(yǔ)法、單詞的正確。在這方面,平時(shí)要多訓(xùn)練,總結(jié)經(jīng)驗(yàn)。
三、聽(tīng)后分析判斷
選擇的答案與原文保持一致,才是正確答案。這種一致性表現(xiàn)在以下幾個(gè)方面:
1. 問(wèn)題及選項(xiàng)與聽(tīng)力原文形式一致。
例6: M: Great party, isn’t it?
W: It certainly is. Hi, I’m Lisa.
M: I’m James. Are you a friend of Roy’s?
W: Yes, we both work at the bank. How do you know Roy?
M: We play tennis together.
W: What do you do?
M: I teach arts at a university.
Q1: Where does Lisa work?
A. In a hospital. B. In a bank. C. In a university.
聽(tīng)出“I’m Lisa”和“We work at the bank”后即可選出 B 為正確答案。
Q2: How does James know Roy?
A. They work in the same university.
B. They play tennis together.
C. They know each other in the party.
聽(tīng)出“How do you know Roy?”和“We play tennis together.”后即可選出正確答案 B。
2.問(wèn)題及選項(xiàng)與聽(tīng)力原文意義一致。
例7: W: What nationality are you?
M: I’m from New Zealand.
W: Which part of New Zealand do you come from?
M: Wellington. It’s the capital.
Q: Where is the man from?
A. England B. An island C. New Zealand
這里的問(wèn)題“What nationality are you?”與“Where are you from?”同義,依此可根據(jù)“I’m from New Zealand.”做出正確選擇 C。
3.正確答案依據(jù)聽(tīng)力原文來(lái)推斷。
(1) 邏輯推理
例8: W: It’s terribly hot in this small room.
M:I agree. Would you mind raising the window a bit more?
Q: What does the man need?
A. A rest. B. A bigger room. C. More air.
根據(jù)“hot”及“raise the window”推斷出 C 為正確答案。
(2) 簡(jiǎn)單運(yùn)算
例9: W: When will the film begin?
M: It begins at 8:55. We only have 20 minutes left. Let’s go now.
Q: What time is it now?
A. It is 8:35. B. It is 8: 05. C. It is 8:15.
這里要用8:55減去還剩下的 20 分鐘,得出現(xiàn)在的時(shí)間是 8:35。 這類(lèi)題只要用簡(jiǎn)單的加、減、乘等運(yùn)算即可,除法極少用到。這類(lèi)試題,并不難做。關(guān)鍵要注意題目問(wèn)的是什么。不要想當(dāng)然。犯經(jīng)驗(yàn)主義的錯(cuò)誤。
(3) 概括總結(jié)
例10:M: You have been in London for several months. How do you like the city?
W: The only thing is the sun never smiles. It’s always gray and unhappy.
Q: What does the woman seem to unlike about London?
A.The unsmiling face.
B.The Londoners.
C.The weather.
原文中的“the sun never smiles”和“gray and unhappy”不是描述人,而是對(duì)天氣的描寫(xiě),考生不能誤解。正確答案應(yīng)是 C。
總之,聽(tīng)力測(cè)試所選的對(duì)話、短文(獨(dú)白)通常圍繞 what,who,where,when,which,why,how,how many(much),what time 等方面來(lái)設(shè)計(jì)考題。因此聽(tīng)時(shí)一定要集中精力抓住與之有關(guān)的關(guān)鍵詞,選出正確的選項(xiàng)。
聽(tīng)力試題對(duì)話部分解題技巧
關(guān)于時(shí)間、數(shù)字計(jì)算的試題
這類(lèi)試題都涉及到數(shù)字,很多時(shí)候涉及不只一個(gè)數(shù)字,做題時(shí)應(yīng)該反應(yīng)靈敏,可以記下一些重要的信息,同選擇項(xiàng)比較分析來(lái)解決。常見(jiàn)的提問(wèn)方式一般有:When…?/What time…?/How old…?/How much…?/How many…? 等等。另外,它所涉及的數(shù)字主要包括:日期、時(shí)間、年代、年齡、價(jià)格、數(shù)量、距離、房號(hào)及電話號(hào)碼等。就數(shù)字種類(lèi)來(lái)說(shuō),主要有基數(shù)、序數(shù)、百分?jǐn)?shù)、分?jǐn)?shù)等。做題時(shí),一般會(huì)出現(xiàn)幾個(gè)數(shù)字,而兩個(gè)或兩個(gè)以上的數(shù)字通常為計(jì)算題。所以我們要用到簡(jiǎn)單的加減乘除運(yùn)算,尤其要注意—些常見(jiàn)的詞。如:half,double,twice,one-third,percent,a pair,3 dozen,penny,cent 等等。
例1: M: Don’t worry, we still have time left.
W:What time does the train leave?
M:At 8:30. We have 35 minutes to go.
Q:What time is it now?
A.7: 55 B.7: 45 C.7: 50
[分析]去趕火車(chē)離8:30還有35分鐘,答案自然為 A。
例2: M:How much is the white shirt?
W: These shirts sell for 16 dollars each,but it’s 30 if you buy two.
Q:How much does the woman have to pay if she wants to buy just one?
A.$15 B.$16 C.$30
[分析]在對(duì)話中,提到買(mǎi) the white shirt 每件 16 元,兩件 30 元,只買(mǎi)—件當(dāng)然是16 元,故正確答案為 B。
例3: M:Did you know the news about the bank robbers?W:Yes,but I don’t know whether they have been caught or not.
M:All except one.He escaped while the police were searching the hotel where the other three were hidden.
Q:How many bank robbers were there altogether?
A.1 B.2 C.4
[分析] 3 個(gè)被抓住,1 個(gè)逃走,故一共為 4 個(gè),答案為 C。
關(guān)于地點(diǎn)、方向的試題
常見(jiàn)的提問(wèn)方式有:Where is…?/Where does the conversation probably take place?/Where are the two speakers now?/Where is the man going? 等等。考試中可以分為兩種情況:一是對(duì)話中涉及到幾個(gè)地點(diǎn),并且根據(jù)這些地點(diǎn)提問(wèn);二是對(duì)話中沒(méi)有出現(xiàn)具體的地點(diǎn)名稱,要求大家根據(jù)對(duì)話中所出現(xiàn)的特定場(chǎng)合來(lái)猜測(cè)與判斷說(shuō)話人在什么地方談話。常見(jiàn)的地點(diǎn)有:at the hospital;in the post office;at a hotel;at a restaurant;at the train station;in the library;in the bank;at the airport 等。我們就要抓住這些對(duì)話中的特定詞語(yǔ)來(lái)判斷,做出正確的選擇。
例1: M: Good morning. I would like to read some novels in English. What kind of books would you think I should borrow?
W: It might be a good idea to read some easy articles first. You will enjoy them more and be able to read fast.
M: That's a good idea. Thank you for your advice.
Q: Where did the conversation most probably take place?
A. In a library. B. In a bookstore. C. In a classroom.
[分析]對(duì)話中提及書(shū)、小說(shuō)等詞語(yǔ),但是從 borrow 可以很容易推斷出對(duì)話所發(fā)生的地點(diǎn)為圖書(shū)館,故正確答案為 A。
例2: W: Hello. This is Jane from the Great Wall Hotel. Is Tom at home?
M: No. Just now he phoned me he was on the way home, I think he will be back soon.
Q: Where is Tom now?
A. At the lab. B. At home. C. On the way back home.
[分析]根據(jù)回答,從多個(gè)地點(diǎn)中選出—個(gè)。故正確答案為 C。
例3: W: Dear, I feel hungry now. How about you?
M: So do I. Let me call Room Service. Hello, Room Service? Please send a menu to Room 810 right away.
Q: Where are the two speakers?
A: In a hotel. B. At a dinner. C. In the street.
[分析]從對(duì)話中的 hungry 和 menu 我們很容易想到與就餐有關(guān),從 Room Service 和 Room 810 得出說(shuō)話的雙方在旅館里。故正確的答案為 A。
還有一類(lèi)試題,是關(guān)于某一方問(wèn)路,或另一方準(zhǔn)備去哪里。出現(xiàn)的地名也比較多,我們要抓關(guān)鍵詞語(yǔ),篩選出正確的答案來(lái)。
例1: M: We want to take planes in Beijing to the seaside this summer holiday.
W: You’re going to Qingdao?
M:No. We went there last summer. This time we’d like to go to Dalian instead.
Q: Where does the man want to go?
A. Beijing. B. Qingdao. C. Dalian.
[分析]題中提到的幾個(gè)地點(diǎn),但是開(kāi)始男的就說(shuō)要從北京乘飛機(jī)去海邊度假,因此要仔細(xì)聽(tīng)清楚到底去哪個(gè)地方。然后可以得到答案 C。
關(guān)于人物關(guān)系、職業(yè)、身份的試題
這一類(lèi)試題要求我們?cè)谀骋惶囟ǖ沫h(huán)境下,對(duì)說(shuō)話人的身份進(jìn)行推理與判斷,常見(jiàn)的提問(wèn)方式有:What's the man(woman)?/What's the man’s(woman’s) occupation?/What’s the probable relationship between the two speakers? 等等,而且我們常見(jiàn)到的人物之間的關(guān)系有:doctor 與 patient;boss 與 secretary;shop assistant 與 customer;driver 與 passengers 或 policeman;teacher 與 student;reader 與 librarian;husband 與 wife;friends 之間等。
例1: M: This is Qianmen Avenue. Where would you want to get off?
W: There, in front of that big tree. That’s ok.
Q: Who is the man?
A. A waiter. B. A taxi driver. C. A conductor.
[分析]從 get off 可以知道對(duì)話發(fā)生在車(chē)上,但是要停在一棵大樹(shù)前而不是公共汽車(chē)站,我們可以判斷出為出租車(chē),而不是售票員,答案為 B。
例2: W: Need I take some medicine?
M: Yes. And I strongly advise you to go on a low-fat diet.
W:Do you really think that’s really important?
M: Of course. If you don’t, you might have a heart attack some day.
W: Well, I think I should follow your advice. You have been very helpful. Thanks.
Q: What’s the probable relationship between the two speakers?
A. Husband and wife.
B. Father and daughter.
C. Doctor and patient.
[分析]從兩個(gè)說(shuō)話者的語(yǔ)氣出發(fā)以及—些關(guān)鍵的詞語(yǔ) medicine, go on a low-fat diet,heart attack 等可以知道他們的關(guān)系為醫(yī)生與病人。答案為 C。
. 關(guān)于態(tài)度、觀點(diǎn)與看法的試題
這一類(lèi)試題所涉及到的是對(duì)話雙方所交談的對(duì)某人與某事或?qū)α硪粋€(gè)人的言行所做出的好惡、贊成等的態(tài)度以及情緒變化。常用的提問(wèn)方式有:What does the man(woman) think of… ?/How does the man(woman) like/feel about… ? 等。聽(tīng)這類(lèi)試題我們首先要判斷兩人的態(tài)度是否相同。如果不相同,我們要分清每個(gè)人對(duì)這件事情的看法,再做選擇。另外說(shuō)話人的態(tài)度是通過(guò)語(yǔ)氣、語(yǔ)調(diào)等的變化來(lái)體現(xiàn)出來(lái)的,因此,聽(tīng)的時(shí)候要特別注意語(yǔ)氣、語(yǔ)調(diào),做出正確的判斷。
例1: M: Linda, how are you getting along with your composition?
W: I have written and rewritten it so many times. But my teacher won’t let me through. I don’t know if I’ll ever get it finished.
Q: How does the woman feel?
A. Discouraged. B. Satisfied. C. Happy.
[分析]該題的關(guān)鍵在第二個(gè)說(shuō)話者的話里:“不斷的修改,不知道能否完成”,故正確的答案為 A。表明說(shuō)話者的不滿意,有些泄氣。
例2:
W: Why are you so angry?
M: I’m angry with Jack! He kicked his football through the classroom window. There was glass everywhere.
W: Oh, my God! Was there anyone hurt?
M: Yes, but fortunately not serious.
W: Thank goodness!
Q: How does the woman feel at the end of the conversation?
A. Angry. B. Happy. C. Upset.
[分析]在判斷女說(shuō)話者的感覺(jué)時(shí) yes, but 是關(guān)鍵詞,可以得知沒(méi)有人受重傷,她的心情應(yīng)該是高興的,故正確答案為 B。
例3: M: Do you really like the story?
W: Yes, I think it is excellent. The adventures of Huckle Berry Fin are fascinating.
M: I couldn't put the book down, either.
Q: What do the two speakers think of the story?
A. The man likes it but the woman doesn’t.
B. The woman likes it but the man doesn’t.
C. Both of them enjoy it very much.
[分析]“I couldn't put the book down.”的意思是“我無(wú)法把書(shū)放下,即書(shū)太吸引人,舍不得放下”,故正確的答案為 C。
關(guān)于建議、行動(dòng)、計(jì)劃的試題
這類(lèi)試題包括了說(shuō)話者建議做某事、決定做某事、讓某人做某事等。常見(jiàn)的提問(wèn)方式有:What does the man/woman want the woman/man to do?/What does the man/woman suggest the woman/man do?/What does the man/woman mean? 等。還有一些熟悉的表建議的常用句型:Why don’t you… ?/Why not… ?/How(What) about… ?/You’d better… /Would you like/please… ? 等。
例1: M: My roommate really upsets me. He’s always coming back so late and forgetting to bring the key to the door.
W: Have you spoken to him about it?
M: Well, actually not.
W: I don’t understand. If it bothers you so much, why don’t you mention it to him?
M: I guess I should. But I don’t like to complain.
Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?
A. Forget the things.
B. Find another room.
C. Complain to the roommate.
[分析]我們?cè)诼?tīng)錄音時(shí),關(guān)鍵在于女的所說(shuō)的這一句話“Why don't you mention it to him?”,故正確的答案為 C。另外,我們常見(jiàn)的“叫某人做某事”的表達(dá)方式有:ask sb. to do sth.;let sb. do sth.;get sb. to do sth.;have sth. done;have sb. do sth. 等。
例2: W: I have to phone my secretary before we leave.
M: There’s not much time left, you’d better get John to do it for you.
Q: What does the man suggest?
A. Use John’s telephone.
B. Call John instead.
C. Ask John to call the secretary.
[分析]“You'd better get John to do it for you.”意思為:你讓 John 替你做這件事情(即打電話給秘書(shū)),這里既有直接的建議,又有讓別人做某事之意。故答案為 C。
說(shuō)話者決定做某事,常用的句型有:Let's… /We might do… /We’d better… 等。常見(jiàn)的提問(wèn)形式有 What will the man(woman) probably do?/What do they decide/plan/ mean/intend to do?/What is the man(woman) going to do? 等。
例3: W: Tom said it would cost 300 dollars to have the car repaired.
M: We might as well spend 300 dollars more to buy a new one then.
Q: What would the man probably do?
A. To save $300.
B. To have Tom repair the car.
C. To buy a new car.
[分析]句中的 might as well 意思為“倒不如、還不如”,男的意思為倒不如花 300 美元買(mǎi)輛新車(chē)。故正確答案為 C。
例4: W: Do you think I should join the English speech contest?
M: Why not? Your English is very good.
W: But I don’t think I’m that good. Besides, there are so many others who are a lot better than I.
M: Come on, you're as good as them, if not better. I’m sure you’ll do well.
W: Well, I guess it won’t hurt to try. I'll enter my name tomorrow.
Q: What is the woman going to do?
A. She will join a contest next time.
B. She doesn't know what to do.
C. She will take part in the contest.
[分析]對(duì)話最后女的說(shuō)“我想試一試也無(wú)妨,明天我去報(bào)名吧”。故答案為 C。
關(guān)于原因、結(jié)果試題
這類(lèi)試題要大家弄清楚事情的因果關(guān)系。常見(jiàn)的提問(wèn)方式有: Why… ?/What's the reason for… ?
例1: W: Hello, Dan. My sister and I are going on a picnic this afternoon. Would
you like to join us?
M: That sounds wonderful. But I’ve been asked to fill in at work for a
man who is sick.
W: What a pity!
Q: Why can’t the man go for a picnic?
A. Because he is sick.
B. Because picnics are not wonderful.
C. Because he has to take the place of one of his colleagues.
[分析]從對(duì)話中我們會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn) fill in 是一個(gè)新的短語(yǔ),但是我們只要從上下文中來(lái)分析,它的意思會(huì)很快地得出的,為“暫時(shí)替代”。故正確的答案為 C。
例2: M: I hear you are moving to a new apartment soon.
W: Yes, but it’ll be more expensive. My present roommate plays the
computer all night long and I can't sleep.
Q: Why is the woman moving?
A. The new apartment is cheaper.
B. She doesn’t like computer.
C. She needs a quiet place.
[分析]從對(duì)話中的“I can’t sleep.”這一句,我們會(huì)得出答案為 C。
關(guān)于推理試題
該類(lèi)試題多為一個(gè)說(shuō)話人提出問(wèn)題、發(fā)出邀請(qǐng)或表明自己的觀點(diǎn)等,另一個(gè)人不做出正面的回答,而是說(shuō)出一些表面上毫不相關(guān)的話,或反問(wèn)做答,或重復(fù)對(duì)方話語(yǔ)的一部分。這類(lèi)題目要求大家能夠聽(tīng)懂說(shuō)話人的弦外之音,做出正確的判斷來(lái)。常見(jiàn)的提問(wèn)形式有:What does the man(woman) mean?/What can we infer from the conversation?/What do we learn from the man's(woman's) reply?
例1: W: I'm thinking of taking five courses next term.
M: Wouldn't four be wiser?
Q: What does the man imply about the course?
A. Five may be too many.
B. The decision must be made soon.
C. It would be smart to take more.
[分析]第二個(gè)說(shuō)話人用反問(wèn)的形式“你不覺(jué)得選四門(mén)更明智嗎?”來(lái)暗示選五門(mén)可能太多了。故正確的答案為 A。
例2: M: Did you watch the midnight film last night?
W: Yes, I watched part of it.
M: I really liked it. I thought it was really exciting.
W: Exciting? I fell asleep during the film.
Q: How did the woman feel about the film?
A. Enjoyable. B. Inspiring. C. Dull.
[分析]女的說(shuō)話時(shí),用升調(diào)重復(fù)了 exciting 一詞,表示不同意對(duì)方的意見(jiàn),接著還說(shuō)她在看電影時(shí)還睡著了。進(jìn)一步說(shuō)明她對(duì)電影不感興趣。故正確答案為 C。
