2020-09-19来源:和谐英语

本次听力考试文章来源于LIVESCIENCE,Gastro Obscura,TMJ4,CBSN Boston等国外期刊杂志或网站。主题包括环境污染、公共安全、交通事件、电子支付、售后服务、生活智慧、社区关怀与手机危害。

本次听力音频男子为英式发音,女子为美式发音,语速正常。新闻与长对话难度偏小,短文难度适中。出现了少量较难听懂的专有名词如Warsaw(华沙,波兰首都),"KonMari" method(KonMari方案),Arlington table(艾灵顿桌子),Milano chairs(米兰诺椅子);以及少量难度词汇orbiting(绕轨道运行),rapidly-hardening(快速硬化的),pressurized water(增压水流),disruptive(破坏性的)等

主要出题点如下:

1. 文章开头。例如,News Report 3中Question 5:What did drivers on the motorway to Warsaw find? (高速公路上的四级发现了什么?)的答案对应了文章开头一句话:Drivers on their way to the Polish capital of Warsaw on Wednesday morning found the road blocked by an unusual obstacle – tons of liquid chocolate that spilled onto the motorway(周日上午开往波兰首都华沙的司机们发现公路被一种不寻常的障碍物阻塞了——几吨洒落在高速公路上的液体巧克力。);再如,Passage 2中Question 16:What is Maire Kondo’s TV show about?(Maire Kondo的电视节目是关于什么的?)对应了文章开头第二句:Say hello to a TV show called “Tidying Up with Maire Kondo”, a home improvement show based on …(来看一个叫做“和Maire Kondo一起整理”的电视节目吧,这是个基于……的改善家庭环境的节目。) 又如,Passage 3的Question 22:What were the college students in both groups required to do in the study? (两组大学生都被要求在研究中做什么事情呢?)对应了文章开头第一句:… two groups of college students were given word-search puzzles.(两组大学生都拿到了查找词语的测试题来做。)

2. 文章结尾。例如:News Report 1中Question 2:What do NASA officials think about the thick clouds?(美国航空航天局的官员是怎么认为这些厚厚的云层的呢?)对应了文章结尾倒数第二句:It’s likely that these sorts of clouds are having some effect on the global climate, according to NASA officials.(美国航空航天局的官员认为,这种云层很有可能对全球变暖有某种影响。)再如,Conversation 2的Question 15:What did the woman do at the end of the conversation?(对话结束的时候,这个女人做了什么?)就直接对应了对话的最后一句Once again,I’m sorry for the confusion and trouble caused.(对于我们的失误和由此带来的麻烦,我再次感到抱歉。)

3. 提示词。例如,Passage 3中,最高级表达词组the most dramatic impact(最引人注目的影响),所在的句子是Question 24:According to the passage, what is the most dramatic impact of smart phone use?(根据文章,智能手机的使用造成的最引人注目的影响是什么?)的答案句。

主要考点包括:

1. 主旨大意把握。例如,News Report 3的Question 6:What does the report say about the accident?(关于这次事故,这篇报道说了什么?)。

2. 细节定位。比如,Conversation 1后Q10: what might the man tend to buy with payment apps?(这个男人使用支付软件很容易买什么样的东西?);又如,passage 2后Question 18:What do we learn about one used bookstore this January?(今年一月,一个二手书店发生了什么?);

3. 考察原因。例如,News Report 1的question 1:What has caused the thick clouds in the photos taken by a NASA satellite?(什么导致了NASA一个人造卫星拍下来的照片里显示的厚厚的云层?);再比如,Conversation 1之后Q8: Why did the woman decide to go back to cash for payment?(为什么这个女人决定用回现金支付?);再如,Conversation2后面的Question 12:Why did the man call the woman? (这个男人为什么给这个女人打电话?)

4. 考察目的。比如,News report 2后面的Question 3:For what purpose, did the staff at the supermarket in Melbourne sign a letter?(出于什么目的,这家墨尔本超市的员工在这封信上签名了?)
