一、做单句理解题的技巧
1.听句子,选出句子中所包含的信息
听录音前,快速浏览题干,在易混词语下做标记;听录音时,随时对照标记,及时做记录;答题时,及时分析拿不准的句子,并根据记录做出判断。如:
A. Walking to the door.
B. Locking the door.
C. Knocking at the door.
相应的录音材料是:
Listen! Someone is knocking at the door.
【分析】答案为C。比较三个选项,听录音时,重点把注意力放在选项的不同之处,即walking to,locking和knocking at三个词上,这样便可得出正确答案。
2.听句子,选出正确的图画
仔细观察试题所提供的图画内容,根据图画内容预测录音材料。在听的过程中注意对主要信息的把握,从而选出符合录音内容的图画。如右图,相应的录音材料是:
It's a part of our body. Each person has got two of them. They are in our faces.People see the world with them.
【分析】答案为C。听力材料中的关键信息是最后一句People see the world with them,能够“see”的也只有眼睛了,故应选图片C。
3.听句子,选出意思相同或相近的选项
首先浏览所给的选项,掌握其意思,做到心中有数;其次是认真听句子,理解其意思,然后选出与其意思相同的选项。如:
A. The first bus was late.
B. He arrived home on time.
C. He was not late for school.
相应的录音材料是:
Though he didn't catch the first bus,he came to school on time.
【分析】答案为C。听力材料中的He came to school on time是关键的信息句,由信息句可知答案是:He was not late for school.信息句和选项C意思相同,只不过是表达方式不一样罢了。
二、做情景反应题的技巧
做情景反应题的关键是要听得懂,答得恰当、得体,并能熟练掌握有关交际用语,清楚了解西方文化习俗。听录音材料前认真浏览选项,掌握其意思;听时要注意听清句子的意思,同时注意对话出现的场景。平时我们应熟练掌握日常交际用语,要正确判断出句子的语言交际功能,在正确理解说话人意图的基础上做出正确选择。如:
A. Certainly. Here you are.
B. How are you?
C. Yes,that's right.
相应的录音材料是:
Excuse me. May I use your dictionary?
【分析】答案为A。听力材料中的句子May I use your dictionary?是表请求许可的句子,其答句当然是:Certainly,Here you are.
三、做对话理解题的技巧
做对话理解题首先要明确语境,熟练掌握初中英语交际功能项目,同时要分析选项,根据选项内容推测可能出现的对话内容。听录音时要善于捕捉关键信息,如:表句意转折的but,表示否定的not,no,nothing等关键词。还要注意对话中的时间、地点、人物、原因、方式、场景、背景等关键信息,从而快速做出反应。如:
1. How much is the jacket?
A. 24 dollars. B. 76 dollars. C. 100 dollars.
2. What color jacket did the man buy?
A. A blue jacket. B. A brown jacket. C. A black jacket.
相应的录音材料是:
Shop assistant:Can I help you,sir?
Man:Yes,I'm looking for a jacket.
Shop assistant:What's your size,please?
Man:Size L.
Shop assistant:What color do you prefer?
Man:I like brown.
Shop assistant:Mm,I'm sorry we haven't got any brown jackets in that size. How about a blue one or a black one?
Man:May I try on a blue one?
Shop assistant:Of course.
Man:Oh,it looks nice on me. I'll take it.How much is it?
Shop assistant:76 dollars.
Man:OK. Here's one hundred.
Shop assistant:Thank you. Your change,please.
【答案与分析】
1. B。从录音材料中我们可知对话场景是在商场购物,既然是购物就可能涉及价格,英语中询问价格的句子是How much is it。当对话中出现此句时,往往答案就在此句后面,76 dollars。
2. A。整个对话都是围绕买a jacket展开的,顾客喜欢的是Size L的brown jacket,但店主没有这个尺码的,但有这个尺码的blue one,这就是关键的信息词,顾客试穿后的感觉是It looks nice on me,可想而知顾客最后买下的是a blue jacket。
四、做短文理解题的技巧
听短文之前要认真细读所给的问题及选项,并根据选项的内容进行对比,对短文的内容进行预测。在听的过程中,要注意简略地记下5个“W”和1个“H”(What,When,Who,Why,Where,How),这样有助于理解文章内容。听第一遍录音时,要仔细将全文听完。听第二遍时,要有针对性地做些记录,利用中间停顿时间将问题逐一解答。最后,在听完短文后再进行归纳、综合、判断,这样便可顺利整理出相关信息,从而确定正确答案了。如:
1. What were the three men doing when the train was going to leave?
A. They were reading newspapers.
B. They were sitting on the train.
C. They were talking.
2. What did the conductor call loudly?
A. The train is going to leave.
B. The train is coming.
C. The train is stopping.
3. What did the three men do when they heard the conductor?
A. They jumped onto the train.
B. Two of them jumped onto the train,but one was left behind.
C. They said goodbye to each other.
4. Why did Bob feel sad?
A. Because he wanted to go with his friends.
B. Because he forgot to say goodbye to them.
C. Because he should be on the train,not his friends.
5. What did the conductor tell Bob?
A. Don't feel sad,and you can write to them.
B. Don't feel sad,and the next train will come in ten minutes.
C. Don't feel sad,and your friends will be back soon.
相应的录音材料是:
Many people were waiting for the train. Some were reading newspapers and some were saying goodbye to their friends.
Bob,Frank and Henry were talking so happily that they didn't know the train was going to leave. Then the conductor called loudly,“The train is going to leave,hurry up,please.”The three men heard the conductor and two of them jumped onto the train quickly before it moved. One was left behind. It was Bob. He looked very sad. The conductor came to him and said,“Don't feel sad. The next train will come in ten minutes.”“I know,”Bob said,“but it was my train. My friends only came to say goodbye to me.”
【答案与分析】
1. C。由关键的信息句Bob,Frank and Henry were talking so happily that they didn't know the train was going to leave可知当火车马上启动时,他们三人谈得正起劲。
2. A。由信息句The train is going to leave,hurry up,please可得出答案。
3. B。由信息句...two of them jumped onto the train quickly before it moved. One was left behind可直接得出答案。
4. C。由信息句Bob said,“but it was my train. My friends only came to say goodbye to me.”可得出答案,该上火车的Bob结果却没有上,而他的两个朋友Frank和Henry是来给他送行的却偏偏上了火车,这也难怪Bob felt sad。
5. B。由信息句The conductor came to him and said,“Don't feel sad.The next train will come in ten minutes.”可直接得出答案。
五、做填空题的技巧
听短文,根据短文内容完成表格或回答问题这两种题型,一定要在听完全文且理解了短文主要内容之后才能作答,千万不要边听边作答,否则会顾此失彼。在听的过程中,要快速记下关键词,如人名、时间、地点、事件、数字等。另外,遇到生词或一时听不懂的地方应该毫不迟疑地跳过去,继续往下听,不要受生词的干扰而把思维停下来。听短文不能强求每句都听懂,重在对整体内容的理解和把握。
做“表格填空题”时还要注意:①题目要求有无词数限制;②所填单词或词组是不是短文中提到的关键内容;③填好之后的句子是否正确,同时注意书写规范。如:
听下面一段短文,然后根据短文内容完成表格。听短文前你有50秒钟的时间阅读表格内容,短文朗读两遍。
相应的录音材料是:
Boys and girls. I want to tell you about our school trip. We're going to go on Saturday. I hope you can all come. As you know,we're going to visit the film museum. There are lots of very interesting things there about the cinema and how films are made. We'll have to leave at eight forty-five,so don't be late. We'll get there by bus.Please meet me in the car park.
What next? Oh yes,the cost. It'll be six dollars seventy each. Now,I'm going to give you some work to do at the museum. You'll need to write things down, so take a pencil and a notebook with you. We'll have lunch in the museum restaurant,so you needn't bring any food with you.Well, I think that's everything.
【答案与分析】
1. (the) film museum。由信息句...we're going to visit the film museum. 可直接得出答案。
2. 8∶45[eight forty-five/a quarter to nine]。由信息句We'll have to leave at eight forty-five可知出发的具体时间。
3. (the)(car) park。由信息句Please meet me in the car park可知集合的地点。
4. $ 6.70[six dollars seventy](each)。由信息句What next? Oh yes,the cost. It'll be six dollars seventy each,可知每个人的花费是多少。
5. a pencil and a notebook。由信息句You'll need to write things down,so take a pencil and a notebook with you,可知随身须带的物品。
