托福听力细节题的题型攻略
托福听力考试中的细节题型,是考试的常见题型之一,同时也是比较关键的题型。想要更好地攻克这类题型,大家首先要掌握一些解题的攻略。下面小编就从实例出发,来为大家讲解详细的解题技巧。
首先我们来了解一下托福听力细节题正确答案的特点,一般来说包括以下四点:synonym同义词替换、paraphrase句子改写、consistent和主旨内容保持一致、objective 科学客观。而相对应的干扰项特点一般是:exactly the same 有若干词和原文一样,但整体句意不同、inconsistent 和主旨内容差别太大、incongruous 信息不同步、subjective主观极端。把握住正确选项和干扰项的大致特征对我们正确解题会大有裨益。接下来我们需要了解一下托福听力官方对细节的限定:
-important-directly or indirectly related to the main ideas-providing elaboration, examples and support-sometimes related to a long digression.
我们通过官方这个定义可以发现,托福听力材料中细节的作用是展开和支持,它的意义是依附于上下文语境存在的,或是对概念的解释和说明,或是具体事例的补充。
一般而言,托福听力细节题的处理有三大步骤:抓住主旨;确定细节出现的位置;理解细节前后的信息。听的过程中,我们思考和记录的不是具体数字是多少,地点在哪里,或者人名的拼写,而是思考教授举例想要说明什么,例子前后的分析都是什么。
下面我们来看几道例题:
例1 TPO28 Lecture4 Archaeology
30/34 What points does the professor make about mound sites?
A.They are easier to excavate than other types of archaeological sites
B.They often provide information about several generations of people.
C. They often contain evidence of trade.
D. Most have been found in what are now desert areas.
以上的细节题,即便我们还没有听得很仔细,我们也是可以轻松选出答案的,因为:
- 听力讲座的主旨是研究遗址中发现一个古老文明的存在
- trade是后面才出现的信息
- 排除掉只是细节描述的选项
