2009年6月英語(yǔ)新四級(jí)考試聽(tīng)力長(zhǎng)對(duì)話應(yīng)試策略

　　25. A) She doesn't really know where they originated.

　　B) She mainly drew on stories of ancient saints.

　　C) They popped out of her child-hood dreams.

　　D) They grew out of her long hours of thinking.

　　通看下劃線部分不難發(fā)現(xiàn),幾乎所有的選項(xiàng)都與女性會(huì)話者有關(guān),可料想此對(duì)話中男性會(huì)話者多提出問(wèn)題,女性多做答復(fù),聽(tīng)時(shí)當(dāng)然主要聽(tīng)女性會(huì)話者所說(shuō)的內(nèi)容。

　　二、聽(tīng)時(shí)抓“點(diǎn)”

　　有了充分的聽(tīng)前預(yù)測(cè),聽(tīng)時(shí)的主要任務(wù)就是抓住考點(diǎn),且掌握如下兩個(gè)原則:

　　1. 考點(diǎn)均勻分布,易出現(xiàn)在話輪轉(zhuǎn)換處

　　首先,長(zhǎng)對(duì)話后設(shè)的3-4個(gè)小題一般均勻地分布在對(duì)話的每個(gè)回合,極少出現(xiàn)某一個(gè)回合包含兩個(gè)考點(diǎn)的情況。這樣,我們?cè)谝粋�(gè)對(duì)話回合中找到一個(gè)考點(diǎn)后,剩余的部分就可不做詳聽(tīng),讓緊張的神經(jīng)稍做放松,有利于將精力集中于下面的考點(diǎn)。

　　其次,考點(diǎn)的位置多是話輪轉(zhuǎn)換的時(shí)候。具體的說(shuō),就是對(duì)話一方某段發(fā)言的開(kāi)頭和結(jié)尾部分,這也完全符合西方人的思維習(xí)慣,即在發(fā)言伊始多是開(kāi)門(mén)見(jiàn)山,而在發(fā)言結(jié)尾處又總括強(qiáng)調(diào)。

　　仍以2006年12月Conversation Two為例:

　　M: Hi, Miss Rowling, how old were you when you started to write? And what was your first book?

　　W: I wrote my first story when I was about six. It was about a small animal, a rabbit, I mean, and I've been writing ever since. (22題考點(diǎn))

　　M: Why did you choose to be an author?

　　W: If someone asked me how to achieve happiness, step one would be finding out what you love doing most and step two would be finding someone to pay you to do this. I consider myself very lucky indeed to be able to support myself by writing. (23題考點(diǎn))
