提高四级听力能力的语言因素和知识因素
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
广告招租,e-mail:yesize@hotmail.com 一、 语言因素在听力中的运用 www.test99.com Test99听力理解可分为字面理解和深层理解。要做到字面理解,就必须具备一定的语音知识、 一定的词汇知识和一定的语法知识。也只有在理解字面意思的基础上才有可能对听力材料进行深层次的理解,所以语言因素是听力理解的基础。我们常提到的语言因素包括: www.test99.com Test991、 语音知识 www.test99.com Test99听力不同于阅读,要求同学们必须具备准确辨音的能力,这是口头交际的基础。在正确掌握每个单词的发音的同时,必须注意以下几个方面: www.test99.com Test99(1)英语中最小对立体的发音,如ship---sheep, cheap ---- chip, pig ---peg, sack ---sock等,有针对性地进行发音训练,比如绕口令之类的练习,如She sells sea cells by the seashore. If she sells sea cells by the seashore, then she sells seashore cells,适当加强一些针对性的听力练习。 www.test99.com Test99(2)重读与弱读:汉语是一个汉字一个音节,而英语中的一个单词可能就有好多音节,这就造成了英汉节奏的差别。而英语中的一些虚词一般要弱读,这有可能会给听力造成一定的困难。对此也应该进行专项训练。如: www.test99.com Test99Whats the time? Sing us a song. Ive eaten them all. He has already visited a great number of different places in Australia.(红体部分的音节重读) www.test99.com Test99(3)连读:连读时语速加快,连读的单词之间没有了间隔,会给理解带来困难。如: www.test99.com Test99inˇorˇout, yearˇin and yearˇout, forˇanˇhour www.test99.com Test99(4)意群:听力时不能一个单词一个单词地去理解,应该注意意群,因为意群之间间隔之处正是停顿之处,注意下列语句朗读时停顿的差别: www.test99.com Test99John said, My father is here. www.test99.com Test99John, said my father, is here. www.test99.com Test99She likes pineapples. www.test99.com Test99She likes pie and apples. www.test99.com Test99He sold his houseboat and trailer. www.test99.com Test99He sold his house, boat, and trailer. www.test99.com Test99(5)注意同音字:有些单词发音相同,也可能给听力理解带来困难,如: www.test99.com Test99What is black and white, and read (red) all over? www.test99.com Test99这里在听的时候,很难分请是read还是red。 www.test99.com Test99(6)语调:语调是说话者表达情感的一种手段,同样一个句子如果语调不同,则意思就有可能发生变化,如: www.test99.com Test99Open the door, will you?↗ www.test99.com Test99Open the door, wont you?↘ www.test99.com Test99用声调表示一种请求,用降调表示命令。 www.test99.com Test99What?↗What?↘↗升调表示疑问,降升表示吃惊和不相信。 www.test99.com Test99测试中同样有可能考查语调的作用,如: www.test99.com Test99①W: Where do you want to eat? www.test99.com Test99M: Is there anything wrong with the↘coffee shop? www.test99.com Test99Q: What does the man mean? www.test99.com Test99A. He wonders if anything happened at the coffee shop. www.test99.com Test99B. He doesnt know why the coffee tastes bad. www.test99.com Test99C. He only wants coffee because he isnt happy. www.test99.com Test99D. He thinks that they ought to go to the coffee shop. www.test99.com Test99一般疑问句,却用了降调,表示出说话者愿意去咖啡馆的肯定态度,答案应是D。 www.test99.com Test99②M: Im terribly sorry Im late, but I just couldnt help it. www.test99.com Test99I got there as soon as I could. www.test99.com Test99W: Well, its not soon enough,↘is it? www.test99.com Test99Q: What does the woman mean? www.test99.com Test99A. Its soon enough to get here. www.test99.com Test99B. Its not soon enough to get here. www.test99.com Test99C. Its not late to get here. www.test99.com Test99D. Its early enough to get here. www.test99.com Test99降调的使用,说明说话人坚信第一部分说的是事实,由此可以判断答案为B。 www.test99.com Test99 www.test99.com Test992、 词汇和语法 www.test99.com Test99(1)注意扩充词汇量:研究发现,词汇量是影响听力的主要因素之一,词汇量的匮乏往往是造成听力能力提高的首要因素。因此,同学们在训练听力技巧的同时,应注意词汇量的扩充。 www.test99.com Test99(2)加强同义表达方式的听力训练:在听力选择中,相当一部分情况下,答案就是对话信息的同义表达方式。如: www.test99.com Test99①W: The speech the blind girl gave this evening was extremely touching. www.test99.com Test99M: I think everybody felt the same. www.test99.com Test99Q: How did the man feel about the girls speech? www.test99.com Test99A. It was boring. B. It was entertaining. www.test99.com Test99C. It was moving. D. It was encouraging. www.test99.com Test99Moving与touching意思相近,答案为C。再如: www.test99.com Test99②M: Nancy, why were you late today? www.test99.com Test99W: I overslept and missed the bus. www.test99.com Test99Q: Why was Nancy late? (1999.1) www.test99.com Test99A. She got up later than usual. www.test99.com Test99B. The bus was late. www.test99.com Test99C. She forgot she had classes. www.test99.com Test99D. Her clock was slow. www.test99.com Test99Overslept也就是got up later than usual。 www.test99.com Test99(3)加强语法概念的单句理解练习:听力测试中有相当一部分情况下,有对语法结构表意功能的考查,如虚Test99拟语气的含义,建议的表达方式等。如: www.test99.com Test99①W: We do need another bookshelf in this room. But the problem www.test99.com Test99is the space for it. www.test99.com Test99M: How about moving the old dining table to the kitchen? www.test99.com Test99Q: What does the man suggest they should do? (1995.6) www.test99.com Test99A. Finding a larger room. B. Sell the old table. www.test99.com Test99C. Buy two bookshelves. D. Rearrange some furniture. www.test99.com Test99如果考生清楚How about用来提出建议,就可以根据moving the old dining table判断答案为D。再如: www.test99.com Test99②W: The movie starts in 5 minutes and there is bound to be a long line. www.test99.com Test99M: Why dont we come back for the next show? Im sure it would be less crowded. www.test99.com Test99Q: What is the man suggesting? ( 1996.6) www.test99.com Test99A. Coming back for a later shouw. B. Waiting in a queue. www.test99.com Test99C. Coming back in five minutes. D. Not going to the movie today. www.test99.com Test99Why dont表示建议,由此可以判断答案为A。 www.test99.com Test99③M: What do you think of my paper? www.test99.com Test99W: The ideas are good. If I were you, though, Id rewrite the www.test99.com Test99last two paragraphs to make it better. www.test99.com Test99Q: What is the womans comment on the mans paper? (1996.1) www.test99.com Test99A. The ideas of the paper are not convincing. www.test99.com Test99B. Some parts of the paper are not well written. www.test99.com Test99C. The handwriting of the paper is not good. www.test99.com Test99D. The paper is not complete. www.test99.com Test99本题考查的是同学们对虚拟语气句子的理解,答案是B。 www.test99.com Test99 www.test99.com Test99二、 知识因素在语言中的运用 www.test99.com Test99这里所说的知识包括与听力材料有关的背景知识、 对话和文章的话题知识、 听力的策略知识以及听力测试的命Test99题规律等知识。 www.test99.com Test99 www.test99.com Test991、 背景知识 www.test99.com Test99对听力材料的背景知识的了解有助于听力材料的理解,而缺乏应有的背景知识常常是造成理解失败的原因。听Test99力对话和听力短文所涉及的领域广泛,要求同学们注意积累有关文化、 历史、 地理、 宗教、 政治、 风俗、 生活Test99等各方面的知识,正是Rich experiences are the facilitator of listening comprehension. www.test99.com Test992、 话题知识 www.test99.com Test99无论是对话还是短文,都有其所涉及的话题,所要说明的主题,而材料中的一切又都是为了这一主题服务,表Test99现同一主题,或同一话题又有与其同现的词汇。同学们可以通过这些词汇推测文章的话题,然后通过文章的主Test99题,预测文章的大体内容,从而对短文进行整体的理解。同学们同样可以通过同现的词汇推测对话发生的地点Test99,会话人之间的关系,各自的身份等。 www.test99.com Test99(1)利用词汇的同现判断对话发生的地点以及会话人之间的关系和身份、 职业等。如: www.test99.com Test99①M: The Golden Lion sounds like a nice place to eat. www.test99.com Test99W: Ok, lets go there. I hear that they have a complete menu www.test99.com Test99and a warm atmosphere. www.test99.com Test99Q: Where are the man and the woman going? (1989.1) www.test99.com Test99A. To the beach. B. To a play. www.test99.com Test99C. To a movie theater D. To a restaurant. www.test99.com Test99从menu一词结合a nice place to eat,同学们便可轻松判断答案D。 www.test99.com Test99②M: How about the food I ordered? Ive been waiting for 20 www.test99.com Test99minutes. www.test99.com Test99W: Im very sorry, sir. Ill be back with your order in a www.test99.com Test99minute. www.test99.com Test99Q: Who is the man most probably speaking to? www.test99.com Test99A. A shop assistant. B. A telephone operator. www.test99.com Test99C. A waitress D. A clerk. www.test99.com Test99从order的使用可以判断答案为C。 www.test99.com Test99③M: Why didnt you stop when we first signaled? www.test99.com Test99W: Im sorry. Will I have to pay a fine? www.test99.com Test99Q: What is the probable relationship between the man and the www.test99.com Test99woman? www.test99.com Test99A. Policeman and driver. B. Policeman and thief. www.test99.com Test99C. Teacher and pupil. D. Director and actress. www.test99.com Test99从signal, stop, pay a fine可以看出,说话者之间的关系为警察和司机的关系。答案为A。 www.test99.com Test99(2)利用话题和主题知识把握全文: www.test99.com Test99文章的主题一般出现在文章的首句,在听时一定要注意首句的理解,然后根据首句推测文章可能会包括的内容Test99,在听的过程注意用来说明主题的信息,进行前后的连贯思索,就可以轻松地理解全文。事实上听力中也有对Test99文章主题的考查。如: www.test99.com Test99There are many reasons why family life in Britain has changed so much in the last 50 years. TheTest99liberation of women in the early part of 20th century and social and economic effects of theTest99World War Two had a great impact on the traditional family life. Women became essential toTest99industry and professions. During the war, they had worked in factories and proved their worth. NowTest99with the loss of millions of man their service was indispensable to the nation. More recentlyTest99great advances in scientific knowledge, and particularly in medicine have had enormous socialTest99consequences. Children are better cared for and are far healthier. Infant death rate was low. Above all, parents now can plan the size of their family if they wish to more effective means of birth control. Different attitudes to religion, authority and tradition generally have also contributed to changes in family life. But these developments have effected all aspects of society. It is particularly interesting to know that the concept of the family as a social unit has survived all these changes. www.test99.com Test99Q: What is the passage mainly about? www.test99.com Test99A. The liberation movement of British woman. www.test99.com Test99B. Rapid economic development in Britain. www.test99.com Test99C. Changing attitudes to family life. www.test99.com Test99D. Reasons for changes in family life in Britain. www.test99.com Test99通过对短文首句的理解,可以判断答案是D。 www.test99.com Test99 www.test99.com Test993、 策略知识 www.test99.com Test99除具备以上知识以外,为了保证听力的质量,同学们,还必须了解一些策略知识,包括听力策略和听力应试策略。 www.test99.com Test991)听力策略 www.test99.com Test99听力策略是听力质量的保证。一般情况下,同学们应掌握的听力策略有: www.test99.com Test99(1)有目的地去听:听要有目的,是要了解大意还是具体的细节,什么细节,在听之前应该首先确定听的目Test99的。 www.test99.com Test99(2)听大意:听大意的方式与阅读中的览读技巧相同,要求同学们在听的时候将注意力集中在话题上,和要Test99表达的主题上,抓主要的东西,而不是具体的细节。 www.test99.com Test99(3)听具体信息:与听大意不同,该听力技巧要求同学们在听的时候只注意相关具体细节就可,如文中的Test99具体任务,具体事件,事件发生的具体地点,时间,原因等。 www.test99.com Test99(4)记笔记:在听的过程中,同学们有必要对重要信息做一下记录,以帮助对听力材料的记忆,也便于随后Test99的推理和判断。 www.test99.com Test99(5)预测:在听的过程中对下文进行预测是整体理解的保证,预测愈是准确,理解也愈是简单。 www.test99.com Test992)应试策略 www.test99.com Test99所谓应试策略指应付考试的有效手段,一般包括 www.test99.com Test99(1)预读选项 www.test99.com Test99预读选项指在听之前先将试题的四个选项浏览一遍。这是做好听力必备的技巧。通过分析四个选项可以对所提Test99问的问题有个大体的了解,使听更富于目的性,带着问题去听,有助于提高注意力,将注意力集中于对话中的Test99某一点信息,减少听的负担,解题也更加准确,快捷。如: www.test99.com Test99①A. Once a week B. Twice a week. www.test99.com Test99C. Three times a week D. Four times a week.(1994.1) www.test99.com Test99四个选项都是表示频度,显然对话内容与做什么事,每周几次有关,带着这个问题去听,就不难找到问题的答Test99案。请看原文: www.test99.com Test99M: Your son seems to have made much progress in playing the piano.Does he attend any piano classes? www.test99.com Test99W: Yes, he takes lessons twice a week, but from next week on, he will go to the class on Saturday evenings, too. www.test99.com Test99Q: How often will the womans son have piano lessons from next week on? www.test99.com Test99对话中提到一周上几次钢琴课,但以前是一周两次,从下星期周六加一次,也就是三次。由于不知道问的是以前一周几次,还是以后一周几次,在听的时候,有必要记清楚。当听到问题后,便可立即决定答案是C。 www.test99.com Test99②A. To the beach B. To the play www.test99.com Test99C. To a movie theater. D. To a restaurant. (1989.1) www.test99.com Test99四个选项明确表示要去的地方,显然问题问的应该要到什么地方去,这样,在听的时候,我们就可以把注意力集中在地点名词上,或用来说明地点的名词上。请看原文: www.test99.com Test99M: The Golden Lion sounds like a nice place to eat. www.test99.com Test99W: Ok, lets go there. I hear that they have a complete menu and a warm atmosphere. www.test99.com Test99Q: Where are the man and woman going?从对话中的a nice place to eat和menu可以判断,他们是要去饭店,答案不言自明。 www.test99.com Test99③A. Go out to work. B. Listen carefully to John. www.test99.com Test99C. Be calm and patient. D. Do the easiest thing. (1995.1) www.test99.com Test99四个选项都是祈使句,说明问题问的是会话这一方建议另一方做什么,这样考生就可以将注意力集中于表示建议的语句上。请看原文: www.test99.com Test99W: Im really angry at John. He never listens to me. www.test99.com Test99M: Take it easy, Allen. Things will work out. www.test99.com Test99Q: What does the man advise Allen to do? www.test99.com Test99从take it easy可以判断答案是C。 www.test99.com Test99下面请大家先预读几个问题的选项,推测文章的大概内容。 www.test99.com Test99④A. She sat back and relaxed. www.test99.com Test99B. She decided to retire. www.test99.com Test99C. She entered university. www.test99.com Test99D. She worked out a new English program. www.test99.com Test99⑤A. 8 years B. 20 years C. 16 years D. 30 years www.test99.com Test99⑥A. Bring a great deal of useful experience to the university. www.test99.com Test99B. Improve human relationship in the university. www.test99.com Test99C. Bring a fear of aging among young students on the campus. www.test99.com Test99D. Improve the reputation of the university. www.test99.com Test99⑦A. She is learning English and Drama. www.test99.com Test99B. She is learning how to make sound judgements. www.test99.com Test99C. She is learning how to teach minority students. www.test99.com Test99D. She is learning to perceive, not to judge. www.test99.com Test99综合四道题的选项,我们猜出她可能是工作了多少年要退休了,后来又学习其它什么之类内容。然后带着这些问题去听,看是否是到了退休的年龄,工作了到底多长时间,是否真的退休了,之后又是做了什么,开始学习什么。有了听的目标,在听的过程中就可以将注意力集中在自己想了解的内容上,忽略不相关的信息,采用跳听的方式。请看原文: www.test99.com Test99After retiring from 30 years of teaching, Ethbell Pepper could easily have decided to sit back and relax and enjoy a peaceful retirement. But that kind of life is not for Ethbell Pepper. I just wanted to do some thing different. If you are going to participate in life, do it. Dont just sit down and look out the window. She says. At 68, she decided to become one of the pioneer participation in a program at the university of California. The program offers campus housing and classes to people over sixty. She enrolled in a class called Human Relationships and Diverse Society. I taught minority students in my English and drama classes in high school for 20 year. But in this course, I found out a lot about other cultures I didnt know then. One of the more important lessons that Im learning is to perceive, not to judge. Older adults can add to the educational resources of university by bringing with them a lot of valuable experiences. Their presence on campus helps break some long beliefs of aging. Young students may have fears of growing older. But that kind of fear can be reduced as they see the older people can be active, healthy, and continue to contribute to society. The younger students can begin to see aging as a natural part of living.(1999.1) www.test99.com Test99即使不听问题,同学们也能大体判断出各题的答案了。我们来看以下问题: www.test99.com Test99④What did Ethbell do when she was 68? www.test99.com Test99⑤How long did Ethbell teach minority students? www.test99.com Test99⑥How do elderly people do to the university? www.test99.com Test99⑦Whats the most important lesson Ethbell is learning? www.test99.com Test99文中提到了两个时间,一个是教学30年,一个是教少数民族学生20年,只要听时注意两个时间的区别,就可以判断⑤题答案为B。听到问题后,知道④题问的是Ethbell 68岁时,实际上也就是退休后,干什么了,答案同样很清楚应该是C。听的过程中同学们应该已经判断出有些选项与文章内容不符,听到问题后,便可以很轻松地确定Test99⑥题答案为A,⑦题答案为D。 www.test99.com Test99(2)记笔记 www.test99.com Test99记笔记是一项比较重要的听力技巧,尤其是在听短文时,实际上听力中也有对记笔记的专项考题,如听写填空。因为各题的四个选项都有可能在对话中或文章中出现,记笔记有助于分清具体的细节,以免出现混淆。如: www.test99.com Test99Susan Anthony was born in Massachusetts in 1820 and died in Rochester, N.Y., in 1906. In the 1850s, she saw many problems in her country and wanted to do soemthing about them. www.test99.com Test99One of these problems was that women did not have the right to vote in the United States. Susan Anthony and many others felt that women and men should have equal rights. In 1869 she helped start the National Womens Association. This group worked hard to get women the rights to vote in the United States. www.test99.com Test99In 1869, the state of Wyoming gave women the right to vote. Some other states also allowed women to have the right to vote. They worked to add this to the Constitution of the United States. Finally, in 1920, fourteen years after Susan Anthonys death, an article was added to the Constitution. It gave all American women the right to vote. (1996.1) www.test99.com Test9912.Who among the American women had the right to vote before 1920? www.test99.com Test99A. The women of some states. www.test99.com Test99B. The women in the state of Wyoming only. www.test99.com Test99C. The member of the National Womens Association. www.test99.com Test99D. The women in the state of Massachusetts only. www.test99.com Test9913.When did all women finally get the right to vote in the United States? www.test99.com Test99A. At the very beginning of the 20th century. www.test99.com Test99B. At the end of the 19th century. www.test99.com Test99C. After Susan Anthonys death. www.test99.com Test99D. Just before Susan Anthonys death. www.test99.com Test99如果同学们在听之前预读以下选项,就可以猜出本篇听力材料中时间一定不少,在听的过程中就应该做一下笔记,记一下时间与事件之间的关系。时间弄清楚了,答案也就清楚了,12题为A,13题为C。 www.test99.com Test99(3)整体理解 www.test99.com Test99无论是对话还是文章都是围绕一个主题展开的,文章的一切细节都是用来说明一个主题。一般选择题的设计也都是针对文章的主题和用来说明主题的有关细节。在听的时候,考生通过预读选项了解了文章的话题范围,这样在听的之后就可以搜索与该话题有关的信息,前后联系,综合考虑,从而把握文章的主题。前后的关联,整体的把握对听力文章的理解至关重要,不能因为细节而忽略整体。要做到整体理解需要: www.test99.com Test99①注意文章的首句。一般文章的主题由首句提出,然后以举例、 列举、 比较、 对照等手段,抓住首句也就掌握了文章的主题,对文章的叙事方式也就有了预测性的了解。理解起来也就简单了许多。 www.test99.com Test99②抓关键词。并不是每个单词,每个句子都同样的重要,有的是论点,有的是论据,有的只表示关联,更有很多是冗余信息。因此,在听的时候,同学们要注意分清哪些是关键词汇,哪些是关键句子,将注意力集中在关键之处。 www.test99.com Test99③忽略。所谓忽略,指当同学们遇到难以理解的词句时不要停,而是跳过去,继续听下文,根据上下文的关系去理解文章。 www.test99.com Test99影响听力的因素很多,有助于听力的技巧也很多,如四级听力测试的模式、 考查重点和具体应对策略 www.test99.com
