托福听力,是托福考试中的重头戏,不仅有单项的听力测试;还有口语,写作都涉及到听力。大部分中国学生,平时很少听英语,等到准备出国了,要语言成绩了,要考托福了,才明白,原来听力,真的是不好提高。接下来,前程百利小编和大家分享托福综合写作如何巧妙答题。
这种情况下,大家不要惊慌,不要气馁!每天坚持听2-4小时的英语材料,最好是有文本的那种,1个月之后,就会好很多。另外,在听第一遍的时候,最好不要看文本,看自己能否听出主要信息;第二遍,你也可以不看文本,看第二遍能不能把细节听出来。如果可以,那说明,听力基础还不错。如果不行,你可以看一下文本;然后听第三遍,看看自己是单词发音不准确,还是单词意思不知道,或者是句子结构不熟悉。听完这一遍,再听第四遍,看看这次,自己是不是可以听懂了。一般来说,经过这四步,很多人都可以听懂文章的意思;如果还是不行;你要考虑一下,是不是自己的语法知识,词汇量太少了。经过1-3个月的持续练习,可以听懂听力部分的意思,那就可以看看,我们送出的这份礼物了。
我们说,综合写作部分,重点是听力部分的要点和细节。这个要点,一般是反驳阅读中的要点。这个细节啊,就是支持要点的论据了。很多学生,听力水平很高,可以把听力中的每句话的意思听出来,然后用自己的话把原句意思表述出来,这是非常高的境界。不过,这类人,比较少。大部分人,还是只能听出大概的意思。没有关系,把大概的意思写出来就好。例如:
TPO20综合写作中,听力的第一个分论点:
First, vegetation. As you might imagine, scorched areas were in time colonized by new plants. As a matter of fact, the plants in Yellowstone became more diverse because the fire created an opportunity for certain plants that could not grow otherwise. For example, areas where the trees have been destroyed by the fire could now be taken over by smaller plants that needed open and shaded space to grow. And another example, seeds of certain plants species won’t germinate unless they’re exposed to very high levels of heat. So, those plants started appearing after the fire as well.
对于听到的信息,前三句,提示了分论点:大火不是完全有害的;大火过后,新的植被有机会生长。那新植物生长有何好处呢?下面有两个例子,即两层意思。第一层意思是说,大火把树烧死了,这些树被移走,小的植物有空间生长;第二层意思是说,大火烧过,外界的温度会变高,这给植物发芽提供了温度。大火过后,它们会生长。这两层意思,最好都要听出来,它们属于细节。如果漏了一层意思,影响比较深远。
还有一种听力材料,它比较高深,中间涉及到举例子,解释某些名词;这个时候,主要意思抓住了,可以不写这样的例子。比如:TPO33综合写作中,听力的第一个分论点:First, the stone balls as hunting weapons, common Neolithic weapons such as arrowheads and hand axes generally show signs of wear, so we should expect that if the stone balls had been used as weapons for hunting or fighting, they, too, would show signs of that use. Many of the stone balls would be cracked or have pieces broken off. However, the surfaces of the balls are generally well preserved, showing little or no wear or damage.
这里面,such as arrowheads and hand axes generally show signs of wear, 这个是说明性的例子,不是直接解释原因的,如果听不出,不写也可以。这种情况下,只需说,the stone balls are used as hunting weapons but there are no signs on them showing that they had been used for hunting and fighting weapons. 这是一层意思。另外一层意思,就是说,the stone balls are well preserved but if they were used for hunting of fighting, they would have been cracked or broken off.
托福托福写作的听力中,重要的例子是要写下来的。重要的例子,是分论点的原因,或者结果;那些说明性的例子,如果听不出来,可以不写了。不要过分的追究听不懂的地方。
