托福聽力日常突破練習(xí)
1.Summary
Summary指的是“概述,大意”的意思,具體指的是我們在聽到一篇聽力材料后所進(jìn)行的概括。這并不需要我們聽懂材料的每一個細(xì)節(jié),但是卻能夠抓住說話人的思路和框架。這個訓(xùn)練對于托福聽力至關(guān)重要,因為托福聽力,尤其是講座,并不需要我們聽懂每一個細(xì)節(jié),更重要的是教授講課的思路和全文的重要細(xì)節(jié)。很多同學(xué)聽完一篇聽力材料時,問他聽到了什么,他只能說出一個又一個零散的單詞,這是遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)不夠的。
練習(xí)summary的方法很簡單,就以托福聽力的講座為材料,一邊聽一邊記筆記,錄音結(jié)束,然后自己根據(jù)大腦的記憶和筆記進(jìn)行全文重點(diǎn)內(nèi)容的英文復(fù)述,然后再反復(fù),直到練到可以將一篇講座順暢的復(fù)述出來為止。這樣練上幾十篇,你對把握聽力材料整體的能力就會有極大的提高。
2.Dictation
Dictation,也就是聽寫,它指的是將一篇聽力錄音中的原文全部聽抄下來。為什么要進(jìn)行聽寫?因為它是聽力提高最有效的方法。為什么聽寫是聽力提高最有效的方法?因為它能將一個人聽力中所有細(xì)枝末節(jié)的問題都暴露出來,然后訂正,全部解決掉,這樣自然最有效率,也最深刻。那么對于準(zhǔn)備托??荚嚨目忌裕詈玫穆爩懖牧鲜鞘裁?是老托的lecture。為什么老托的lecture是最好的聽寫材料?因為新托是老托的延續(xù),老托和新托在題材、詞匯,和難度上都大致相當(dāng)。當(dāng)然,如果基礎(chǔ)比較薄弱的同學(xué),可以先花一個月的時間將新概念第二和第三冊的美英版先聽寫完,然后再來聽寫老托的lecture,這樣會更加磨刀不誤砍柴功。
3.Intensive listening
Intensive listening,指的是精聽。我所說的“精聽”,并不只是指全神貫注地聽,當(dāng)然,這是必須的。我所說的“精聽”步驟如下:(1)一邊聽一邊看著原文,手上拿著筆,劃出自己不認(rèn)識或似曾相識但反應(yīng)不過來的詞;(2)錄音結(jié)束,開始查生詞,寫在原文的旁邊,只需要寫這個單詞在這篇文章的意思就可以;(3)將這篇材料當(dāng)閱讀文章快速精讀一遍,徹底看懂;(4)再一邊看著原文,一邊放錄音,并且嘴上跟讀,反復(fù)幾遍,一直聽到可以不看原文徹底聽懂為止。
精聽的材料可以有很多,但我最推薦的是SSS(Scientific American’s Sixty-second Science),因為它非常短,只有一分鐘,但信息量很大,更重要的是,它是托福聽力出題的重要來源。按照上面的步驟,將SSS的2008年全集(總共250篇)全部精聽完,你的聽覺反應(yīng)速度、聽覺詞匯量,以及知識面都會質(zhì)的提高。
4.High-quality extensive listening
High-quality extensive listening,指的是高質(zhì)量的泛聽。泛聽不用像精聽那樣每個細(xì)節(jié)都得突破,只需要把握住整體的語流,聽懂說話人的大概意思就可以。而高質(zhì)量的泛聽,指的是必須全神貫注的聽。泛聽的“泛”并不指態(tài)度的懶散,而是針對整體的要求。
泛聽最佳的材料有兩個:一個是National Geographic(國家地理),另一個是Discovery(探索)。看到時候,一定要有英文字幕。每天看一集,養(yǎng)成習(xí)慣,會有極大收獲。
5.Challenging materials
Challenging materials,意思是“有挑戰(zhàn)性的材料”,指的是備考托福聽力,平時聽力練習(xí)的最高難度一定要超越考試難度,這樣在考試的時候才會有居高臨下的感覺,穩(wěn)定地取得好成績。挑戰(zhàn)性的材料有這么幾類:第一,美國大學(xué)上課的課堂錄像或錄音,現(xiàn)在很多美國大學(xué)已經(jīng)將自己大學(xué)的許多教授的課堂錄像放在了互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上,這是一個極佳的挑戰(zhàn)聽力難度的材料;第二,巴朗和Kaplan上的試題一定要做完,另外,如果覺得DELTA上的試題難度低,可以利用變速軟件加2倍速來做,這樣就會超越考試難度。
6.Subconscious listening practice
Subconscious listening practice,意思是“下意識的聽力練習(xí)”,它指的是我們要自己為自己創(chuàng)造一個英文的環(huán)境,比如早晨一起床,我們就打開音箱播放英語,可以是托福的聽力材料,也可以是英文廣播,也可以是一部英文電影,whatever,只要是英文的就行。
托福聽力: 聽力筆記注意點(diǎn)
1、不是聽寫下許多許多內(nèi)容就可以捉到得分點(diǎn)。有很多人都經(jīng)歷過記了一大堆東西后,發(fā)現(xiàn)還是做不對題目,因為得分點(diǎn)的信息往往在記其他無用的東西時被忽略了。這就是把握信息點(diǎn)的問題。關(guān)鍵的問題還是提高記筆記的效能,而不是效率。提高的方法前面已經(jīng)說過了。所以有人說note taking到最后記的越來越少,但是正確率越來越高。
2、不要一聽到教授開始講話就趕緊去記錄。聽的時候要注意內(nèi)容和主題的密切度,當(dāng)內(nèi)容不確定有沒有用的時候先記錄下部分關(guān)鍵詞,并且大腦要有個大致的印象它講了什么,實在不夠時間等后來再補(bǔ)上。
3、做筆記只且只要自己看得懂就可以了。大家做筆記的時候就按自己的思路來做記號和寫單詞,不完整不正確一點(diǎn)關(guān)系都沒有,只要自己看得懂。
4、謹(jǐn)慎地查看和使用記錄的筆記,特別是只寫下只言片語的地方。聽力大忌之一是看到選項有與原文相同的字眼就選那個。有人說新T的聽力迷惑性大,因為選項往往是原文的同義改寫,所以要真正理解了才能選對。
