雅思聽力Section 3該怎么聽?
很多考生認(rèn)為雅思聽力考試的第一部分和第三部分都是屬于對話性質(zhì)的文體,但事實上,聽力考試的第三部分被稱作discussion才更為準(zhǔn)確。從做題的情況來看,大部分考生在第三部分發(fā)揮的效果不好,正確率性對于前兩個section也偏低。一方面是因為考生聽到第三部分時已經(jīng)有點疲憊,精力無法集中,另一方面是因為考生并沒有熟練掌握section 3的考試特點,只是簡單地把這一部分當(dāng)作對話來復(fù)習(xí)。在本文中,專家將從section 3自身特點出發(fā),給眾多考生一些應(yīng)對的策略和方法。
一、section 1 和 section 3 的辨析
嚴(yán)格意義上來講,section 1是一個conversation,而section 3是一個discussion。這兩個部分的說話方式有著很大的區(qū)別。前者是一問一答,后者是互問互答。
原創(chuàng)范例:
Conversation:
Tom: Are you going to go to Australia?
Mary: yes, but after taking the IELTS exam.
Discussion:
Tom: Are you going to go to Australia?
Mary: yes, have you been there before?
Tom: No, but I read a few books and magazines about the country. Why do you want to go there?
從上面的兩個例子中我們可以看出,對話的問和答的對象都是相對固定的,但是討論的問和答的對象卻時時更換。這就需要考生看清卷面的題目,以免聽錯對象做錯題。
二、人稱定位
通常情況下,雅思聽力section 3的部分題目在卷面上會有人名或者是表示人身份的詞出現(xiàn),比如人名Jason, 教授Professor。因此,遇到此類題目時,考生最好用筆劃出,明確此題目的說話人,這樣才不會做錯題目,才不會掉到考官給考生設(shè)置的陷阱里。
舉例:
Cambridge 6 Test 1 Q21
What is Brian going to do before the cousre starts ?
A attend a class
B write a report
C read a book
原文:
Tutor: Hello. Can I help you?
Brian: I was told to come here because I like to talk to someone about taking a management course.
Tutor: Right, I am one of the tutors, so I could help you.
Brian: Ok, my name is Brian; I have decided to enroll a part-time management curse. A friend of mine took one last year, and recommended to me.
Tutor: Right.
Brian: Is there anything I should do before the course, like reading or anything?
Tutor: We prefer to integrate reading with the course, so we dont give out reading list in advance, but we like people to write a case study, describing an organization they know.
Brian: I have already done that as my friend told me you wanted one. But would it be possible to sit around in teaching session to see what is like? I havent been a student for a quite while.
解析:本題的答案為A。在做這道題目時首先要把人名Brian劃出,確定在課程開始之前是這個Brian要做什么。把人稱定位好以后,在考生聽題的時候,就要注意錄音中Brian這個男生,凡是女生說的話我們都可以不做答案的參考內(nèi)容。因此在錄音中提到的reading,case study就不會形成干擾。同樣地,在Cambridge 5 Test 2 Secton 3和 Test 4 Section 3, Cambridge7 Test 1 Section 3和 Test 3 Section 3等劍橋題目中存在著相同的特點。
三、無人稱定位
顧名思義,無人稱定位是指在section 3中的卷面題目中沒有指定的人稱,通常是以兩方或三方說話人討論的主題點作為題目。應(yīng)對此類題目的方法與做section 2和section 4 的方法類似先尋找關(guān)鍵詞,然后根據(jù)所劃關(guān)鍵詞找到答案。但是,在尋找答案的過程中,專家提醒各位考生,要注意信息的確認(rèn)與信息的對方更正。

Trevor: Literacy rates
Julie: Yes, school places
