经典:托福听力新增题型实例解说
(3) Listen again——(woman) In the chapter I just read, it said that the oldest tortoise whose age can be verified to some extent is the one known as Marion’s tortoise.
(man) I read that Marion’s tortoise was 152 years old.
(woman) Actually, I think the book said it was at least 152 years old.
Why does the woman say this:“ Actually,I think the book said it was at least 152 years old.”
(a) To contradict what was in the book
(b) To indicate that she is not sure what is correct
(c) To restate what the man said
(d) To correct an error by the man
(4)Listen again——(woman) Historians are satisfied with the authenticity of the records that show that Marion’s tortoise died in 1918.
(man) How do they know it was the same tortoise? Could it have been a different tortoise that died there in 1918?
What does the man mean when he says this:“How do they know it was the same tortoise? Could it have been a different tortoise that died there in 1918?”
(a) What was said sounds plausible
(b) Marion’s tortoise was not on the island of Mauritius
(c) There may be an alternate explanation
(d) There was only one tortoise on the island
(5)Listen again——(woman) Yes. So Marion’s tortoise was known to have lived for 152 years on Mauritius. But because it was an adult when it was captured in 1766 and it’s unclear how old it was at that time, it could have been considerably older than 152 years when it died, maybe 180 years or more. Two hundred years old for this type of tortoise isn’t inconceivable.Which sentence best describes how the woman feels when she says this:“Two hundred years old for this type of tortoise isn’t inconceivable”(a) It is possible for a tortoise to live for 200 years(b) A tortoise could not possibly live to the age of 200(c) No 200-year-old tortoise has ever been found(d) Many types of tortoises live to be very old注:以上五道题目中带暗影部分皆是再次回放的内容。(谜底)(1)A(2)B(3)D(4)C(5)A[剖析]新增Listen Again题型属于测试考生Pragmatic understanding(recognize a Speaker’s attitude or degree of certainty; recognize a speaker’s function or purpose)即理想了解的本领。此类本领测试在整个新托福听力测试的比重占25百分之多。
也便是说,Listen Again题型处理好,新托福听力的总34道题目你将会处理至少6道题目。那么究竟Listen Again题型让我们考生理想了解什么?很简朴,即要求考生往了解你再次听到的那段话中的:
(1)Function(purpose):
ask you to understand not just what the speaker said but why the speaker said it. For example, to determine that a speaker said sth in order to apologize, explain, clarify a point, change a marketing, indicate a change of opinion, or suggest a new action .(下面样题第一题等于)
(2)Stance(attitude)
Ask you how the speaker seems to feel about a particular marketing. For example, to determine if the speaker feels Positive or negative, happy or sad, impressed or unimpressed, or enthusiastic or bored about a particular Topic. Also ask about whether a speaker is doubtful or Certain about what he or she is saying.(下面样题后四道题目等于)
简朴的说即对再次回放内容中发言者讲此句话的目标大概立场举行料到。因此,考生解答此种题目时即便在全文放音历程中不知所云,也要在Listen Again时,务必掌握Listen Again内容——Listen carefully to what the speaker says in the part of the passage that is repeated and then draw a conclusion。
[本领]
实在根据下面样题所示,你也会发明:(1)勿须了解全文,只需了解Listen Again的内容你就可以对题目举行做答。(2)听再次回放内容时对发言者的语气、语调应尤为关注。如第2题的那句That’s couldn’t Be…No way讲出来时语气格外激昂,可见发言者的意图是针对第一人话语的一种不信,一种否定。(3)以往旧托福的解题本领仍可使用,如第3题。以往在小对话中有如许一种叫做Actually的题型,即在答句开头听到Actually时,必为否定第一人不雅观点的。第3题女方选手开头Actually,那么看哪个选项能否定男方的,D这个谜底To correct the Error by the man即进眩[结论]根据以上新增题型的剖析,值得我们考生愉快的是:此类题型应属送分题型,即便全文团体不雅观点、信息恍惚不清,但仍可只拜托再次回放的部分解决此种题型。再深进探求其素质,岂非我们还能下新托福听力打消了正本小对话部分如许的界说吗?此种新增题型,不恰因此往小对话所测试我们的根基地点吗(让我们往做推论)?
只不外,现在的新增部分综合了95年8月前的单句题和95年8后的小对话题罢了。现在的“Listen Again”题型——说它是单句题,它比单句题轻微显长显庞大;说它是小对话题,它比小对话题测试内容上要稍显更理想、更连系与学术。这不恰是ETS此次托福测验革新关于听力部分的主旨(Academic Listening Skills:The Listening section measures test takers’ ability to understand spoken English from North America and other English-speaking countries. In academic environments students need to listen to lectures and conversations.)吗?
[尾声]
据本文所引、所论,透析ETS之企图多端于新增题型处,故此,我们该做到剥往新托福听力新增题型的冒充,立在ETS出题的迷信规律上“往违存真;弃相修真”,并再次高呼:“新托福听力——道是有变却无变!”。
这更是一种在出国路上、在人生妥协途中屡脱险阻、逢遇叵测,即便疲惫、干瘪、厌倦乃至想要畏缩时我们判断的目光与困难摩擦并迸射——对峙的声响!那让我们一同镇定,恬然,冷静,刚强的走下往吧!
