在英语六级听力考试中,考生常常遇到以下两类题型,对这两类题型如果掌握它的解题要点,在考试的时候就会显得很轻松应手。
一、时间与数字题型
时间、数字和计算是听力测试中最常见的题型,几乎每年都有,而且题型也比较多。历年试题中虽然涉及的数字或数目并不多,但考生的答对率却不高。究其原因,一是对数字的表达方法不够熟悉,二是对技巧的运用不够熟练。
卷面线索
时间题的四个选项一般都是表达时刻的数字,或是星期、年、月等词,偶尔会有介词后跟数字。数字题的选项则有可能为纯粹的数字或带有货币符号的数字。
解题要点
一般来说,正确答案不会是直接听到的数字,而往往是在意思上与这相同或相近,或换了一种表达方式,或要求对听到的数字进行简单的四则运算。做这类题时,听清这些数字和它们之间的关系是解题的关键。这些数字之间的关系往往用more/less, late/early, fast/slow, before/after之类的形容词、副词或介词短语来表示,多为时间题。
【例1】
M: Could you tell me the timetable of the school bus?
W: Well, the bus leaves here for the campus every two hours from 6:30 am But on weekends it starts half an hour later.
Q: When did the second bus leave on Saturday?
A) 7:30 B) 8:00 C) 8:30 D) 9:00
答案D)。这是一道较为复杂的转换题。考生应听懂对话中的every two hours from 6:30和half an hour later两处,同时还要细心,捕捉到问题中的the second bus和Saturday。
【例2】
W:Have you heard about the air crash that occurred last Wednesday?
M:Yes The newspaper said six crew members and sixty four passengers were killed, and fifteen others were injured.
Q: How many people suffered in the air crash?
A) 85. B)70 C)64. D)31.
这是一道简单的数字运算题,解题的关键是要听懂问句中的suffer一词,受害者应包括死者和伤者,故答案应为6+64+15=85,A)。
【例3】
W:Sorry,Mr. Smith is not in May I have him return your call?
M:Yes, thank you Im at 6330872Sorry Its 6338720.
Q: Whats the mans telephone number?
A) 6330872. B)6380372. C) 6338720. D)6338726.
这道题要注意的是电话号码在口语中的读法。6338720的最常见的读法是:six double three eight seven two zero 。另外还要注意不要受干扰信息的影响,如本题中的6330872以及其后的话语停顿。
【例4】
W: Id like to make two reservations one Flight 651 for June 8th.
M: Im sorry Weve booked up on the 8th But we still have a few seats available on the 9th
Q: When does the man want to leave?
A) On the 6th of June B) On the 8th of June.
C) On the 9th of June D) On the 19th of June.
答案为。与上一题类似,本题是考察考生抗干扰的能力。对话中干扰因素有Flight 651和the 9th两个数词。考生还要理解两个词:reservation意为预定,而book up则指订完。此外,还要熟悉日期的不同表达方法。
二、地点与方向题型
在地点型试题中,有的地点在对话中直接提到,有的则需要根据对话内容来判断,还有的则是两者兼而有之。
卷面线索
选项通常由地点名词构成,提问可分为两种情况。第一种问对话发生在何处,选项的形式通常为表示方位的介词加上一个地点名词构成;第二种问的是方向,选项的形式通常为表示方向的介词加上一个地点名词或者只有地点名词构成。
解题要点:
首先要根据卷面线索判断出试题的类型。对于第一种试题,要重点听对话中的与特定地点有关的常用词或词组,例如听到reserve,check in,check out,room之类的词的话即可判断对话是发生在旅馆里,听到size,color,pay,discount之类的词即可判断对话地点是在商店等。
与方向有关的词和词组并不多,所提出的问题在形式上也可能比较简单,但是这类问题出现时,往往需要几经思考才能得出答案。在这类问题中,务必要注意录音中的内容细节,不要单凭从对话中获得的孤立信息来确定答案。建议在听音的同时用笔在纸上画一些草图以帮助理解。
与时间题不同,有的地点题可通过逻辑判断猜出正确的答案,平时要注意这方面能力的培养。
【例1】
M:Good afternoon, This is Edward Miller at the Sun Valley Health Center Id like to speak to Mr. Adams, please.
W:Mr. Miller, my husband isnt at home I can give you his business phone if youd like to call him at work.
Q:Where is Mr. Adams now?
A)At the Sun Valley. B) At the Health Center.
C) At home D) At Work.
答案D)。本题表面是很简单,因为对话中有直接提示词At work,它与D)项完全相同。此外,his business phone也能给我们一定的提示。
【例2】
M: Ive just got back from the holiday you arranged for me, but I must tell you the hotel was really awful! It was miles from the sea. The food was awful too. The bedroom was dirty.
W: Sorry about that but its not really our fault. The contract does say that the hotel accommodation is not our responsibility
Q: Where is the conversation most probably taking place?
A) At the airport. B) In a travel agency.
C) In a hotel D) At home
此题对话中虽有地点名词出现,但明显不是答案。本题考的是推理能力。根据hotel等关键词,可推断对话的话题与旅行有关。而从W的话中的arrange, contract等词,可以判断出这是一家旅行社。本题说明,在听对话时,要对关键词特别注意,但又不能认为关键词就是答案。
【例3】
M:Now, Miss, do you feel all right now? What happened?
W:Yes, Im fine now. I was just at the motorway I was driving along the main road when suddenly right before the crossroads I met the car came out at the side street I didnt see him until he hit me.
Q: Where was the car before it hit the woman?
A)In the side street. B) At the crossroads.
C) On the main road D) On the motorway.
本题属于较为特殊的地点题,考生不仅要听懂对话发生的地点,而且要能理解I met the car came out at the side street这句语法上有错误的话并推断出在汽车撞上W之前,它正在the side street 中。其他选项在对话中都曾出现过,但它们都是描述W本人所在的位置,而非肇事车辆所处的位置。
【例4】
W: I just stopped by at your office in the bank. They told me that you had quit where are you working now?
M: I am working for a lawyer now. The pay is better and the work is much more interesting.
Q: Where did the man work before?
A) In a court. B) On the farm.
C) In a bank. D) In a shop.
答案C)。此题的关键词bank在对话中出现了两次,考生不但可以从女士的话,也可以从男士的回答中得出本题的正确答案。而a lawyer 仅仅是一个难度不大的干扰词,考生只要听懂now这一词就可以排B)D)两项与本题对话明显无关。
