托福听力功能题及态度题

托福听力功能题及态度题 功能题 在新托福听力中, function功能题占大约15%的比重。那么考生要学会识别function 功能题并把握其解题技巧。 首先我们看看功能题的典型提问方式: What is the purpose of the lecture? What does the professor imply when she says this? Why does the professor say this? What can be inferred from the student’s response? 其次我们学习下功能题的解题技巧 解答这类题目,考生需要注意重听的某句话在重听的小层次中所起到的作用。单独看这句话,可能考生无法判定它的功能。那么放在语境中,考生才能更好地把握其功能。 而在托福听力中常见的功能的分类有解释,总结,建议,鼓励,强调,纠正错误等。此外考生可以根据这些常见的功能分类,分析可能出现的考点,利用听力过程中的笔记把握重点内容。在记笔记的过程中注意把握语气、语调的升降。这些都是功能题常出现的考点。有重点地把握这些能够更好地把握功能题,并提升功能题的正确率。 态度题 在P类问题(Pragmatic Understanding Questions)中,态度题所占的比重相对较少。但是不可忽视其重要性。下面我们来看看托福听力中态度题的一些情况。 态度题的典型提问方式: What is the professor’s opinion of …?

托福听力对话讲座考前须知汇总一览

托福听力对话讲座考前须知汇总一览 托福听力对话类考前须知介绍 就对话而言,中国大陆区主要考查的两大类是:教师办公和服务咨询。对话部分长达3分钟左右,语速快,涉及2-3人,因此考生需要适应不同讲话人的口音和语调,冷静耐心,头脑清醒的应对。要做到两项注意。 首先,注意对话未正式开始时的介绍语。如,Listen to part of a conversation between a student and a professor.或Listen to part of a conversation between a student and librarian 等。介绍语的信息可以使应试者将注意力缩小至某一主题,如学生咨询住宿情况、教授和学生间的可能性话题。 其次,注意对话的开头部分,快速将信息记下来。一般学生会在简单寒暄后直接讲出谈话主题。 托福听力讲座类考前须知一览 讲座部分占到托福听力内容的三分之二,所占分值70%以上,因此无疑是托福听力的重中之重。课堂讲解反映的是大学课堂的实际情景,其形式可以是老师进行的讲课的独角戏,也可以是师生间的问答。讲课部分听力材料相对较长,生词较多,大家在备考时熟记一些与大学所开课程相关的词,最好按课程分类来记。此外,托福网考是允许做笔记的,所以备考时应养成边听边记笔记习惯。由于讲课部分材料丰富,做笔记是必要的。 首先,要集中精力听开始部分,争取尽快抓住讲课主题。在正式讲课开始前,都会有一个简短介绍,如Listen to a lecture about physics.这句话给讲座提供了一个大的学科方向。大多数讲课都会以开门见山直奔主题的方式,引起大家兴趣。 其次,再抓住主题后,对可能听到的讲座内容进行积极预测。听到开场白后,就要立刻集中精力抓住其关键词和核心概念,然后迅速

托福听力中lecture记笔记的方法及要点

托福听力中lecture记笔记的方法及要点 自从走上托福听力的讲坛,我经常遇到各种因听力拖后腿而愁眉不展的考生,在听完学子们集体声讨听力段子难度无底限的同时,耳边总是回荡着考生们关于自己无法记下笔记的无奈。这年头,作为一位托福听力老师,手里没几个货真价实的笔记方法,你都不好意思跟学生打招呼;作为托福备考的学子们,要是没几个拿得出手的惯用笔记符号,你都没脸跟人家说自己曾经考过托福。 笔记到底应该怎么记,才会更有效率,笔者认为应该从以下几个方面来练习。众所周知,托福听力讲座呈现的美国大学课堂上的真实场景,教授的演讲总是遵循一定的逻辑和脉络的,常见的结构如总分式,先提出本课的重点,再从多个侧面展开论述,最后总结强调;或者常见于历史类讲座中的线型结构,按照时间的先后顺序进行讲解,这就要求我们在练习的时候,注意从整体上把握文章的结构,边听边划分文章的层次。 把握了文章结构之后,笔记的重点就应该瞄准文章的考点,比如举例论证是听力中出现的最为频繁的考点,出题的角度也是多种多样,在听到举例的时候应该在笔记上标出“eg.”的符号,并用箭头标注此事例的支撑点是什么;抑或是在师生互动的文章中,师生间的问答也是考点,一方面给出相应的背景知识,另一方面老师会对学生的观点进行评价。在平日的练习中,大家就要有的放矢的捕捉考点,逐一击破。 当然,在记笔记的过程中,也要讲究方式方法,平日练习的时候,应该多使用自己习惯的符号,如用星号或三角来表示强调重点;用Q & A 表示问答;用上下箭头表示增减;用单词的首尾字母代替完整的单词拼写,或者几个单词的首字母代替常用的短语。 总之:要想记好笔记,实力一定是第一位的。好的实力才能保证你在听的时候分出精力去辨别此处是否值

六种新托福听力题型及其解题技巧

六种新托福听力题型及其解题技巧 (一六种托福听力题型易考点及其技巧点睛: 所谓最大的技巧就是“反命题”,知己知彼,才能百战不殆。想要在听力部分取得高分,不仅是在刚开始接触IBT听力时,乃至当临考的冲刺阶段在做官方样题时,也一定要将ETS 的出题思路和考核要点贯彻始终。 1、主旨题 一个段子的主旨往往出现在文章引言和开头处,而重复的最多往往一定是主旨!在听课堂演讲等学术性题目时,一定要首先把握文章最核心的主旨,主旨考题选项中过于细节的往往是错误选项; 2、功能/目的题 该题型类似于主旨题,对于任何一个长段子,首先务必要把握的是文章的主旨和结构,只有主旨确定了,才有可能去理解细节,做推断。 3、细节题 主旨题和细节题主要是考察考生对于基本信息的理解能力(basic comprehension,除此之外ETS所要考察考生的另外两种能力分别是对于语用信息的理解(pragmatic understanding和整合信息、对全文结构把握的能力(connecting information。而基本信息的理解就占到50%的比重,可见主旨题和细节题的重要性。 对于细节题,大家不要走入误区,觉得所有的细节100%会考到,所以去关注每一个小的细节点,以至于舍本逐末,只见树木,不见森林。对于细节题,大家要把握两个原则:第一、ETS只会考察我们和主旨有关的重要细节。过于偏细节的实在没有听到,大可不必惋惜,影响后面的发挥;第二,牢牢把握住往往和考点向联系的重要信号词。比如说表示因果的accordingly, thus等词对应于细节题中常考察的因果题。而常见的和信号词相关的考点有逻辑时间顺序、举例、列举、相似或者对比、转折、强调、因果、总结、定义、建议、数字等。

托福听力对话类高频场景全盘介绍

托福听力对话类高频场景全盘介绍 在托福的对话类听力素材中,图书馆可以算的上是一个出现频率相当高的场景了。许多对话都是发生在图书馆当中,对话双方多为学生和图书管理员。下面就和大家分享托福听力对话类高频场景全盘介,希望能够帮助到大家,来欣赏一下吧。 托福听力对话类高频场景全盘介绍详解图书馆里的二三事如何应对托福听力中的图书馆场景? 1、熟听、熟记图书馆场景标志词,使听力差的考生虽听不懂段子的具体内容,但能确定出它是图书馆场景类型的段子。 2、反复听老题中图书馆场景的段子,掌握以下具体的方面: (1)美国学校图书馆的基本制度:如研究生和教师可以进入书库直接查阅,本科生则不能之类的规章制度等; (2)美国学校图书馆的基本部门设置和常见设施:如reference room,periodical room等重要部门; (3)考生尤其应注意美国学校图书馆在制度、机构设置方面与中国的差别,因为考生缺少对这些差别亲身体验的感性认识,从而在听清字面意思时也造成对实际内容的理解障碍,是产生失分的主要原因。

掌握以上背景知识的目的是期望对将来托福听力中图书馆场景段子的内容做到未听先知,考生对它们的掌握程度应力求达到较流利的口头表述。 托福听力中图书馆相关词汇汇总 library图书馆 librarian图书管理员 archive 档案 non-fiction 非小说类文学作品 science-fiction 科幻小说 copier 复印机 check out 办理(借、还)手续 renew 续借 overdue 过期 interlibrary service 馆际服务部分名称 information desk n.服务台 delivery/circulation desk借书台 shelf 书架

托福听力态度题全面分析 摘要:态度题是托福听力考试的常见题型之一,考生们千万不能因为态度题所占比重较少而忽略它的重要性,为帮助考生更好的了解,我们特别为大家奉上托福听力态度题全面分析。 新托福听力考试总共有六大题型的测试,分别是:主旨题、细节题、句子功能题、态度题、结构题和推论题。而ETS将这六大考题细归类为B, P, C三部分,即Basic Comprehension Question基本信息理解题,Pra gmat ic Understanding Question语用信息理解题和Connecting Information Question信息关联题。B部分包括:主旨题和细节题;P部分包括句子功能题和understanding the speaker's attitude态度题;C部分包括结构题和推论题。 在P类问题(Pragmatic Understanding Questions)中,托福听力的态度题所占的比重相对较少。但是因其一般解题难度较高,因此不可忽视其重要性。下面我从以下几个方面为同学们解析态度题。 一.托福听力态度题的典型提问方式: What is the professor’s opinion of …? What can be inferred about the student when he/she says this (reply)? What is the professor’s attitude about/toward…? What does the man/woman mean when he/she says this? 二.托福听力态度题的典型出题角度 1.互动时教授的回复,学生的疑问(以反驳观点为主)

托福听力笔记技巧

托福听力笔记技巧 托福听力考试中尤其是Lecture部分是需要大家快速记录信息的,因为Lecture部分听力一般长达5-6分钟,单凭临时记忆很难记录下来所有的重点内容,下面就和大家分享托福听力笔记技巧如何快速记下有用信息,希望能够帮助到大家,来欣赏一下吧。 托福听力笔记技巧如何快速记下有用信息 一.为什么托福听力需要记笔记 1. 听力材料长度增加,每类*的长度都在600字以上 2. 总题目数量减少,老托福听力题目为50道,新托福为34道 3. 听力题型简化为两大类:长对话(2个),课堂讲座(4个) 4. 出现三种新的考试题目类型:表格题、重复题、多选题 5. 听完之后才可以看题目 6. 考生可以做笔记 通过对新托福听力特点的分析,我们不难看出记笔记是听力高分突破的关键。

二.如何快速记下关键信息 1.抓核心 IBT听力正式开始之前会有一个简短的内容介绍,之后屏幕上会出现一些和听力内容相关的,这些可以帮助我们确定下面所要听部分的核心话题。例如,listen to a conversation between a professor and student in a professor and student. 从这个介绍我们可以知道下面对话内容的场景:biology class,结下来会出现一个图片,里面文字为:Friends of the Earth, Biology class。后面还会出现一个对话内容的图片。通过这些文字和图片,我们可以推断这个对话的主题为与人类地球有关的一个结构,这样机构主要会负责环保事宜。确定主题可以让考生悬着的新慢慢落地。后面的长对话给出的文字和图片提示与对话类似。 2.核心相关细节 确定核心话题之后,我们需要做的就是记录与其相关的细节,主要的细节为what , when, where , who , why和how等。注意记录对话和演讲中信息引导词和信息引导句后面的信息,例如,First ……, lets look at the ……, Now, Lets move on to ……, in the nest part of lecture ,I d like to talk about …… 3.笔记记录方法

托福听力对话常见话题

文都国际教育官方网站:https://www.doczj.com/doc/da3632752.html,/托福听力对话常见话题 想要提高托福听力成绩,一定要掌握托福听力对话常见话题,下面是文都国际教育小编给大家介绍的相关内容,希望能给大家提供帮助。 托福听力对话场景基本常识 新托福考试的听力对话技巧主要考察校园生活的各种场景,大致分来可以分两种教授的面谈时间和服务场景。在和教授的谈话时间里包括要求延期交作业,考试没考好的问题,具体询问某个问题等等,而在第二种学校的各项学生服务里则包括图书馆场景、租房服务、心里咨询、找工作等。 托福听力对话场景题目设置 在托福听力考试中每个对话有5个问题。第一道题目是主旨题;第二道题目是针对学生问题的背景信息进行提问,是过渡题;第三道是针对存在问题进行设置;第四道题目是针对解决问题提出的建议进行设置;最后一个题目是对整篇文章提出的问题进行的建议。 托福听力对话场景常见话题 1.考试。考试的综合成绩,即综合大考,包括出勤分、小测验、回家作业、论文、期中考试、期末考试、演讲等。有些学生会进行补考,补考的说法是makeup、make-up、make up。有意思的是补考的原因也是男女有别,男生往往是“挂了”、没考过,而女生往往是太忙。如果考试成绩不理想,想要提高成绩,可以说是improve,bone up,upgrade,bring up grade等。 2.图书馆。在托福听力图书馆场景中,图书馆的相关政策是比较严谨和严厉的,同时服务也是相当人性化的。同学们可以注意记住其中的一些的细节,在以后的留学生活中充分利用图书馆的资源和服务,更好地避免违反一些相关政策。第一、被召回的书会有还书期限,不在还书期内还过去,会受到不允许借书等的惩罚。第二、一个班的学生需要用同一本参考书目来写论文,可以要求教授向图书馆预约对应学生数量的copies。 3.论文。“论文”场景的主要技巧是在段子本身内容和结构特征上,是在于它的内容相当固定。一个段子内容固定了,提问的题目便固定了;题目和内容都固定了,答案也就固定了。考生稍加留心就会发现,托福听力凡谈及论文这一场景,基本超不出以下三个话题的范围:(1) Topic题目难定,即论文题目的选定。(2) Material资料难查,即资料的查找。(3) Typing字难打,即论文打字工作的辛苦。这些话题是本场景第三大常见话题。 文章来源于文都国际教育:https://www.doczj.com/doc/da3632752.html, 文都国际教育官方网站:https://www.doczj.com/doc/da3632752.html,/

备考托福听力时记笔记的五大技巧

备考托福听力时记笔记的五大技巧 1.记关键词 所谓关键词,是指与听力中心内容有密切关系的词汇和短语,是考点的主要出处。一般是实词,即名词,动词,形容词,副词,否定和数词。抓住了听力中的关键词,整个文章的大意就呼之欲出了。所以,记录关键词是最基本的方法。 至于找关键词的方法,我附上了听力十大原则的文件,这个方式无论记不记笔记都一样的。 2.记逻辑词和短语提示 逻辑词和逻辑短语是连接一篇文章的筋骨和脉络。外国人对于逻辑思维非常重视,托福中从阅读到作文无不体现出来这个点。所以,听清楚逻辑词,记录下来,对于内容的之间的关系和顺序等的了解就容易了。 托福中出现的逻辑关系(Barron P75): Definition ★Description and example ★★Classification ★Sequence ★★★Comparision and contrast ★★Cause and effect ★★Problem a nd solution Persuation and evaluation

对于逻辑词和短语的总结,delta和barron上面都有提及,这里 就不再累述了。 顺便说一点,拥有良好的逻辑意识和掌握相当的逻辑词和短语无 论在分析阅读,听听力,说口语还是写作文的时候都是一个优势,能 给评分教授一个清晰的条理。还是那句话,你让教授爽,他就让你更 爽! 3.利用缩写,简写,逻辑符号,换词减少记录时间 记笔记关键是速度。新托福的语速还是跟老托差不多,比barron 的快。所以,要懂得如何简化自己的笔记,同时让自己看得明白清楚。缩写和符号是很好的方法。我已经附上了自己总结的缩写和逻辑符号,大家能够下载。同时,大家在准备过程中也能够按照自己的思路添加 更多的缩写。 另外,换词也是一种很好的方法,在barron中专门有一章paraphasing的技巧训练,而阅读不是有换句子的题型吗?证明是托福 要求掌握的水平之一。 在note taking中的换词,不需要改成复杂深奥的词语,恰恰相反。举个例子:当你听到…opportunity…的时候,如果要写下来, 那多麻烦啊,要考虑复杂的拼写。但是如果你马上晓得改写成chance,那就节约了很多时间。还有,没人说只能写英文啊!当你听到large,small的时候,你不觉得记上“大”“小”更快吗?所以当你发现某个 词出现得比较常见但是又浪费时间去记录它的话,就能够利用换词解决。如此类推,能够应用的地方还是很多的。
