為了讓你對(duì)托福聽(tīng)力考試技巧有一個(gè)生動(dòng)的形象化的認(rèn)識(shí),以下我們通過(guò)場(chǎng)景方法向你展示一個(gè)奇妙的答題方法。
場(chǎng)景法指的是考生通過(guò)對(duì)話(huà)揭示的場(chǎng)景關(guān)鍵詞,判斷磁帶上的對(duì)話(huà)或演講發(fā)生的實(shí)際生活場(chǎng)景,再根據(jù)這一生活場(chǎng)景答題。場(chǎng)景法可行的原因在于托??荚嚨哪康摹N覀兦懊嬉呀?jīng)說(shuō)過(guò),托福測(cè)試的是外國(guó)學(xué)生在美國(guó)學(xué)習(xí)和生活要用到的基本語(yǔ)言能力,所以托福聽(tīng)力在內(nèi)容上永遠(yuǎn)離不了學(xué)習(xí)和生活這一主題。學(xué)生生活的圈子不大,典型的仍然像中國(guó)的5點(diǎn)式,即宿舍—教室—食堂—圖書(shū)館—購(gòu)物。而托福聽(tīng)力已經(jīng)考了幾十年了,學(xué)校里的幾乎每一個(gè)角落上都被考過(guò)了。只要考生能熟悉學(xué)校里的各個(gè)場(chǎng)所經(jīng)常發(fā)生的學(xué)生生活場(chǎng)景,僅憑幾個(gè)詞就可以知道整個(gè)對(duì)話(huà)或演講的大體內(nèi)容,從而得出(甚至猜出)正確答案。
在場(chǎng)景法的后面,我們將歸納美國(guó)大學(xué)生活的各個(gè)場(chǎng)合及其典型的對(duì)話(huà)內(nèi)容。在這里,我們的先介紹一下如何利用場(chǎng)景法。
為什么要用場(chǎng)景法?
很多做過(guò)托福聽(tīng)力題的考生都有這種感受:即有些對(duì)話(huà)里的詞全都聽(tīng)懂而且明白單詞的意思,就是選不出答案。更離譜的是,即使讓你看文字答案答題,你也未必會(huì)有很高的正確率。為什么會(huì)出現(xiàn)這種情況呢?原因在于場(chǎng)景,即英語(yǔ)里常說(shuō)的situation.我們平時(shí)碰到有人試圖安慰心情不好的自己時(shí),經(jīng)常會(huì)說(shuō)“你不是我,你不會(huì)明白的”,就是這個(gè)道理。在托福的聽(tīng)力中,“清”的肯定不是“旁觀(guān)者”,而只有“*者”才會(huì)最清楚對(duì)話(huà)到底說(shuō)的是什么。而要成為“*者”,你必須熟悉托福聽(tīng)力的大學(xué)生活背景。下面的例子列舉了熟悉場(chǎng)景的重要性:
He got in and pushed the button for the forth floor.
Question: What did he do?
A. He took the elevator.
B. He sewed the buttons on.
C. He dropped something on the floor.
D. He made him go upstairs.
這個(gè)單句題(現(xiàn)在的聽(tīng)力部分沒(méi)有這種單句題),如果你不熟悉電梯的話(huà),你會(huì)一頭霧水,根本不知其所云何事。但是,如果你一聽(tīng)到就想到了電梯的話(huà),那么這根本不是問(wèn)題。
所以,托福的聽(tīng)力中的有些題目?jī)H憑聽(tīng)清楚每個(gè)單詞的字面意思是不夠的(很多時(shí)候甚至是不必要的),你還必須生動(dòng)地想象出對(duì)話(huà)所發(fā)生的具體生活場(chǎng)景。
場(chǎng)景法的魅力
例如學(xué)生入學(xué)時(shí)登記注冊(cè)的場(chǎng)景。如果你平時(shí)記住了關(guān)于register的詞匯,如registration,course enrollment form,signed by academic advisor,get the department's approval,tables set up aIl the way around,stamp your form,approved,pay for tuition,officially enrolled,pick up identification card.那么,即使你聽(tīng)力能力較差,對(duì)話(huà)的具體細(xì)節(jié)沒(méi)能聽(tīng)懂,你也能答對(duì)題。
如果你不相信的話(huà),請(qǐng)?jiān)囍鴥H根據(jù)注冊(cè)這一大學(xué)里發(fā)生的場(chǎng)景,而不根據(jù)對(duì)話(huà)的內(nèi)容,做下面兩道題。
Q1. When would this talk be given?
A. At the beginning of a semester.
B. During the mid-semester vacation.
C. At final examination time.
D. Just before a gymnastics event.
Q2. Where are the students going tomorrow?
A. To registration office.
B. To a class reunion.
C. To their classes.
D. To a track meet.
第1題:該對(duì)話(huà)肯定發(fā)生在學(xué)期初。答案確實(shí)唾手可得。
第2題:既然是講注冊(cè),那肯定是去registration office.
對(duì)話(huà)內(nèi)容及相關(guān)詞句
