高一全国中学生英语能力竞赛听力解题技巧（三）

二、怎样听?

2.善于整体理解

不少同学听的过程中,过于关注单个的词语或句子,而不是整体理解。这样,只会增加听的难度,而无益于提高效果。逐词逐句理解是不现实的,也是低效的。例如:

2.What time does the train leave?

A.At 6:15. B.At 6:25. C.At 6:50.

录音材料:

M:I'm afraid we'll miss the train.What time is it now?

W:It's 6:15.There are 10 minutes left.Let's hurry.

不少考生在听该题时,因缺乏整体理解的习惯或理念,过于死抠个别字眼(6:15),以致错选A。如若采取整体理解策略,弄清对话中两个时间(6:15和10 minutes left)之间的关系,即可得出答案B。

整体理解还包括通过上下文或重复信息来克服听的障碍,或推测这些听不懂的内容的大致意思。这些障碍包括:听不懂的生词、未能听清的词句等。若采取逐词逐句的理解,你就无法克服这些障碍,以致于无法继续听下去。但采用整体理解法就不同,对于暂时没听懂的内容,你可毫不迟疑地跳过去,并接着往下听,然后可通过上下文内容来猜测这部分内容的大致意思。例如:

M:Good morning.

W:Good morning.Can I help you?

M:Yes,are there any tickets left for the Chinese Music Concert on the 28th,please?

W:Just a moment,please.No,I think you've made a mistake.It's on the 30th.

M:Really? I read about it in the paper today.I'm sure it said Chinese Music on the 28th.

W:Oh,sorry.I thought you said Japanese Music concert.The Chinese Music Concert is on the 28th at 7:15,but I'm afraid there are only back seats left,and they are 30 yuan each.

M:That's OK.Can I have two,please?

W:How would you like to pay for these?

M:Cheque.Here you are.

W:Thank you,and here are your tickets.

M:Thank you very much.

对于中国音乐会的时间,即使你没有及时听清,也没有关系,你可通过重复信息再听。
