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 don’t 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 haven’t been a student for a quite while.
解析:本题的答案为A。在做这道题目时首先要把人名Brian划出,确定在课程开始之前是这个Brian要做什么。把人称定位好以后,在考生听题的时候,就要注意录音中Brian这个男生,凡是女生说的话我们都可以不做答案的参考内容。因此在录音中提到的reading,case study就不会形成干扰。同样地,在Cambridge 5 Test 2 Secton 3和 Test 4 Section 3, Cambridge7 Test 1 Section 3和 Test 3 Section 3等剑桥题目中存在着相同的特点。
三、无人称定位
顾名思义,无人称定位是指在section 3中的卷面题目中没有指定的人称,通常是以两方或三方说话人讨论的主题点作为题目。应对此类题目的方法与做section 2和section 4 的方法类似——先寻找关键词,然后根据所划关键词找到答案。但是,在寻找答案的过程中,专家提醒各位考生,要注意信息的确认与信息的对方更正。
举例:
Cambridge 7 Test 4 Questions 29-30
原文:
Julie: We also need statistics on different things.
Trevor: Literacy rates
Julie: Yes, school places
Trevor: how about the encyclopedia?
Julie: not up-to-date enough!
Trevor: why don’t we call the embassy?
Julie: someone’s enthusiastic!
Trevor: well, if something’s worth doing
Julie: I know, it’s worth doing well…OK
Trevor: We can find out statistics on school places from them as well.
Julie: Might as well
解析:从上述原文中,我们不难看出,考官在这两道题目中给考生做了不少“绊脚石”,方框内的文字和红色文字的对比,充分地体现了在听力考试第三部分中的信息确认与更换的这个特点,事实上,考生在听题的过程中还能感受到信息确认与更换的速度也是快的让一部分考生“透不过气来”。所以,若考生在做题之前看到section 3的卷面做到心中有数,这样对于成绩的提高是非常有帮助的。
四、角色搭配
角色分配有利于考生在对听力考试第三部分的审题和听题中更好地把握录音内容的分配及说话思路。详见下面的表格:
