M; Well, let me check again with Jane M; Well, let me check again with Jane. I’ll call you tonight, and let you know for sure. OK? 浏览第15题后,我们就会想到在录音中必然会出现与A,B,C 三个选项有关的关键信息词,究竟选哪一个,待听完录音后定夺。看过第16,17题的题干和选项后,不难看出,录音内容应该是与邀请有关的话题,而且被邀请者可能是John和他的妻子,那么有关邀请的句型立刻在脑海中闪现,如 “ Are you free this Saturday ? “Will you come to …? “I’d like to invite you to ….。因此,在听录音内容时,就要对这些句型特别注意,并将有关关键词记录下来。
1.边听边记 俗话说 “好记性不如烂笔头”。特别是在听力测试的过程中,因为听力测试要求考生在短短的几十分钟内记忆大量的信息,而且速度又比较快,人的精神高度紧张。很可能会出现当时听得狠明白,但过后做题的时候又忘记的现象。尤其是听长对话或短文的时候。这时需要记一些关键点。考生应学会一边听录音,一边记笔记的好习惯,做到手脑并用,强化记亿 。因为有大量的信息要在短时间内记忆,所以笔记不可能也没有必要记得很完整,可以用一些简单的、不规则的并且自己能看得懂的符号或缩写把与题干有紧密联系的信息简要记下来。如有关数字内容用阿拉伯数字记录,地名、人名用相关的字母替代,单词用缩写,长句抓主要成分等
如:1999年高考英语听力测试第二节中的第7段材料,录音原文为: M: Hello, International friends Club. Can I help you ? W: Oh, hello. I read about you club in the paper today and I thought I’d phone to find out a bit more. M: Yes, certainly. Well, we’re a sort of social club for people from dofferent countries. It’s quite a new club --- we have about 50 members at the moment , but we ‘re growing all the time. W:
W: That sounds interesting. I’m British actually W: That sounds interesting. I’m British actually. And I came to Washington about three months ago. I’m looking for ways to meet people. Er, what kinds of events do you organize ? M: well, we have social get-togethers, and sports events. And we also have language evenings. W: Could you tell me something about the language evenings ?
M: Yes, Every day except Thursday we have a language evening M: Yes, Every day except Thursday we have a language evening. People can come and practise their languages ----- you, know, over a drink or something. We have different languages on different evenings. Monday --- Spanish; Tuesday – Italian; Wednesday --- German; and Friday --- French. On Thursday we usually have a meal in a restaurant for anyone who wants to come. W: Well, that sounds great. I really need to practise my French. M: OK. Well, if you can just give me you name and address, I’ll send you the form and some more information. If you join now, you can have the first month free.
材料中的划线部分比较集中,完全记录下来是相当困难的。但是我们可以用上述方法这样记录:1---S ( Monday --- Spanish ) 2 ----I (Tuesday – Italian) 3 ---- G ( Wednesday --- German ) 5 ---- F( Friday --- French ) 。 对话中的长句 “On Thursday we usually have a meal in a restaurant for anyone who wants to come”. 只要抓住主要成分 “On Thursday we have a meal “ , 将其记录成“4—meal” 即可。这
样答考题时,只需参考自己所做的简明记录,就比较容易地选出正确答案。 1.把握中心 听录音时要把握中心思想,要从语篇整体水平上去细听和理解,抓住所听材料的中心和要点,决不能因听不清一个词或句子而停顿下来去猜,去思索。应集中精力应付下一题,否则会因跟不上语速而漏听。如: What are the speakers taking about ? A. A flight timetable B. The way to Union Street C. Hiring a taxi. (NMET99---12)
听力原文为: M: Good morning, City Taxi. W: Good morning. I’d like to book a taxi to the airport for Saturday morning, please. M: Where from? W: I’m at Garden Hotel in Union Street. There’ll be three of us sharing. How much will it be ? M: about 460. W: $60! Each or between us ? M: Oh, that’s all together. What time do you want to leave ?
W: seven in the morning. M: Right. We’ll pick you up at your hotel at seven, then. Thank you very much, Good-bye. 对话中两个谈话人经过几个回合的交谈,完成了一项交际任务---- 订出租车。考生在听这段对话时要抓住一些关键信息,如:book a taxi, where from, what time, pick up, at the hotel等。对话中心比较明确,正确答案为C。
1.理顺关系 谈话者的职业,身份及其它们之间的关系一般隐含在谈话内容中,听录音时要根据双方谈话的内容,关键词进行分析,推断。还可以通过说话人的态度,语调变化等推测言外之意,辩认人物的角色和他们之间的关系。如: What is the relationship between the two speakers ? A. Neighbors B. Father and daughter C. Husband and wife (NMET2001 – 16 )
听力原文为: W: Hello. M: Hello. Lucy. This is John. Look, could you do me a favor ? I’ve tried to phone my wife six times and I can’t get through. The line is busy al the time. Could you possibly go next door and give her a message ? W: Sure. What do you want to tell Mary? M: Could you just say I’ve run into an old friend and I’m staying with him and not at the hotel. I’ll give her a ring later. W: Sure. I’ll go round now. M: Thanks a lot, Lucy.
W: Okay. Bye. M: Bye! 该题考查考生对谈话者之间的关系判断。根据对话中的语气及划 分的内容,我们不难判断此题的答案为A。 总之,听力水平的提高是一个反复实践的过程,需要长期艰苦的训练才能见成效。只要我们注意平时的基础训练,具有扎实的基本功,再掌握一些合理的听力技巧,就能在考试中得心应手。
