1、 最权威的国际教育服务平台 资料来源:教育优选 http:/ 20 分的广大考生,经常出现一个很大的疑问:为什么在听懂讲座的 80%以上的情况下,还是总会做错题目呢,而且出错题目类型不定。首先,大家应该对自己的听力能力要有信心,而再提升的方面有以下几点:第一 听力文本的结构性相信做过 TPO 听力两遍以上的同学都很清楚,托福听力的讲座部分是有很明显的层次结构性的,那么我们要在做平时的准备当中,在听懂了之后善于总结和概括每部分的大意。因为在了然大意之后,文章的出题点也就基本形成了。下面是 TPO24 的鳄鱼讲座为例:Take American alligators. If you were to
2、 go to a swamp during the breeding season, youd hear a chorus of sounds, deep grunts, hisses, these are sounds that male alligators make.And some of them are powerful enough to make the water vibrate. This sends a strong, go-away message to the other males. So the alligator can focus on sending othe
3、r sound waves through the water, sound waves that you and I couldnt even hear since they are at such low frequency. But they do reach the female alligator, who then goes to find and mate with the male.Vocalization is um.well, it is used for other reasons.通过信号词(take American alligators 和 used for oth
4、er reasons)确定这是一个小层次,在笔记中,相信大家都会记下:Ame alligator1. Send go away messa- other2. Reach female(mate)我们可以得知:美洲鳄发声来驱赶同性和吸引异性,总结为美洲短吻鳄的发声的目的。再看题目According to the professor, what are two functions of the sounds made by male alligators?

5、act matesTo locate hatchlingsTo threaten other males我们可以看出是细节题,但考的内容是以上总结的部分:短吻鳄的发声的目的/功能,所以很容易的选出 B 和 D 两个答案。总结每个部分的分论点有两大优点:第一 能够预判出题的大致内容;第二能防止信息混乱,尤其是在做下面的题目时,可以起到区别和定位的作用。第二 听力题目理解上的改变很多时候,考生很困惑主旨题的选项,虽然自己明白了大致的内容,为什么有时会做错题目呢?针对这个问题,我给出以下几个小技巧:1. 抽象词具体化理解托福听力常考的抽象词:difference、comparison、way 、me
6、thod 、importance 等如果出现 difference/comparison,我们就要明确本文主题是进行比较和对比的如果出现 way/method/approach,我们就要明确开头会出现:how 这样的字眼,那么我们就要去选择有关方法的答案2. 极端词排除法在选项中常出现极端词汇为:first, second, the most., new, never, always,而这些词往往是错误选项,我们不需要去过多的考虑3. 句意颠倒选项中常出现答案是与听力原稿中完全相反的情况,我们需要认真听取这个细节,最好是在笔记中用符号将前后两个名词联系起来,最常用,例如(TPO24 考古):A
7、nd with that came increased seasonality, that is, the summers became warmer, and the winters actually became colder. These extreme shifts would have put a lot of stress on the bodies of animals that were used to a more moderate range of temperatures.But when the seasons became more distinct, the pla
8、nt communities were pulled apart, that meant, in any given area, there was less plant diversity. And as a result, uh, 最权威的国际教育服务平台 资料来源:教育优选 http:/ the theory goes, the Ice Age animals that depended on plant diversity couldnt survive.笔记上的记录为:Extreme temp - stress - animal bodyTemp- plant less divers
9、ity - animal not survive概括为温度的变化使动物灭绝,因为植物多样性降低,很多以此为食的动物灭绝了。26. According to the climate change theory, how did the climate change at the end of the ice age make it more difficult for large animals to survive? Click on 2 answersBy reducing the size of their habitatsBy forcing them to endure a wider
10、 range of temperaturesBy reducing the variety of food available to themBy forcing them to live near humans因此答案就是 C。4. 时刻联系主旨很多时候,我们在听的一知半解的情况下,或者在两个选项中纠结时,需要及时联想起本篇听力的主旨,这样就可以将答案选出。但有时候我们要多依靠每个部分的 topic sentence 解题。例如( TPO 第二个对话):Professor: Thats it. Basically. Um. so exactly what is it you dont und
11、erstand?Student: OK. I guess what I am really confused about is how the topography of the land, the mountains and valleys and stuff, affects precipitation.笔记记录为:?Topog - precipitation学生不明白的是:topography 如何影响降雨量,所以答案里面必须要有 topography和 precipitation。20. What aspect of the hydrologic cycle is the student confused about?How the process of evaporation works 最权威的国际教育服务平台 资料来源:教育优选 http:/ topographical features affect precipitationHow water vapor in the atmosphere becomes rainHow lake water fits into the cycle
