W: When you're planning the basic structure, do you like to go





away to be sure that you're by yourself?





M:





(第20题答案位置,放音此时出现非常明确的语气强调,且出现引导词absolutely和but、completely等表达)I





need to be by myself certainly, absolutely. I can't even bare





anybody else in the house. I don't mind much where I am as long as





I've got enough space to write, but I need to be completely





alone.





W: Is that very important to you?





M: Oh, yes. I've never been lonely in all my life.





W: How extraordinary! Never?





M: No, never.





W: (第21题答案位置。用上下两句对话说明作家的特点。先说明The writer can stand aside from





experience and look at it, watch it





happening接下来用了一个单词detachment的重现直指答案They look at the world in a





detached manner,其中detached译为"不带感情的,超然的"。)You're very lucky.





Someone once said that there's a bit of ice at the heart of every





writer.





M: Yes. I think this is true. The writer can stand aside from





experience and look at it, watch it happening. There is this





'detachment' and I realize that there are obviously experiences





which would overwhelm everyone. But very often, a writer can





appear to stand aside, and this detachment makes people feel





there's a bit of ice in the heart.





Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just





heard.





19. What is the key to write a good classicaldetective story





according to the man?





20. What does the man mainly need when working on a book?





21. What does the man say about writers?





关于逻辑词提示这一点,我们再看一下这套题目的第二篇长对话开篇--





W: There is an element there about competition then, isn't





there? Because British railways are a nationalized industry.





There's only one railway system in the country. If you don't like a





particular kind of big beans, you can go and buy





another.(这是该篇第一道题目第22题答案的位置。正确选项Like it or not, you have to use





them,即是从but后方内容得到的形象概括。)But if you don't like a particular





railway, you can't go and use another.





M: Some people who write to me say this…











三,短文部分







2010年12月的短文题目延续了近年来对于普及新知识的重视。关于短文的传统解题方法我在之前各期六级听力的相关解题技巧讲解的文章中已经多次提到,这里就不再赘述。针对普及新知识的类型文章,我这里将和大家分享一些除了逻辑词、视听基本一致等基本解题思路外的信息。





以该套题目第一篇短文为例--





(文章最开始的首句群出现开篇26题答案位置,选项即原文重现)Among global warming's most





frightening threats is the prediction is that the polar ice-caps





will melt, raising sea level so much that coastal cities from New





York to Los Angles to Shanghai will be flooded. Scientists





agree that key player in this scenario is the West Antarctic ice





sheet, a Brazil-size mass of frozen water that is much as 7000 feet





thick. Unlike floating ice shelves which have little impact on sea





level when they break up, the ice sheet is anchored to bedrock will





blow the sea surface. Surrounded by open ocean, it is also





vulnerable, (注意but的逻辑词引导,这是第27题答案位置)but Antarctic experts





disagree strongly on just how unstable it is.





(细节题,第28题答案位置,和选项几乎相同的原文重现)Now, new evidence reveals that all or





most of the Antarctic ice sheet collapsed at least once during the





past 1.3 million years, a period when global temperatures





probably were not significantly higher than they are today. And the





ice sheet was assumed to have been stable. In geological time, a





million years is recent history. The proof, which was published





(提示第29题latest finding)last week in Science, comes from a





team of scientists from Uppsala University in Sweden and California





Institute of Technology who drew deep holes near the edge of ice





sheet. Within samples collected from the solid substances lying





beneath the ice. They found fossils of microscopicmarine plants





which (第29题答案位置,注意结论性的语句)suggest that the region was once





open ocean not solid ice. As Herman Engleheart, a co-author





from the California Institute of Technology says, 'the West





Antarctic ice sheet disappear once and can disappear again.'





26. What is one of the most frightening threats of global





warming according to the passage?





答案:Many coastal cities will be covered with water.





27. What did scientists disagree on?





答案:How unstable the West Antarctic ice sheet is.





28. What is the latest information revealed about the West





Antarctic ice sheet?





答案:It collapsed at least once during the past 1.3 million





years.





29. What the scientists' latest findings suggest?





答案:The West Antarctic region was once a open ocean.





本文属于地理科学类文章,涉及到全球气候变暖、极地冰川融化等近年来很热门的环境问题。其中包含一些专业词汇,如West





Antarctic ice sheet西南极洲冰原,ice shelf 冰架, fossil 化石, microscopic





marine plants





海洋微生物,等等。除了专业词汇的困扰外,文章中出现的大数字也会在听力放音中给众多考生加压。文章结尾选取的Herman





Engleheart的引语,给全篇的科学实验做出了一个结论,也就是西南极冰原可能再度融化。







在这类专业性较强的文章里,一定要听明白文章首句群--在文章的开头三到四句话中往往会交代这篇文章研究的领域或者提出的科学猜想,这对于解题至关重要。通常在这样的首句群之后,文章将进行到相关的数据例证或者实验分析,这时候,由于文章本身出题数量的限制,经常是没有需要总结或概括的题目出现的,所以,在数据列举和实验分析的过程,即使出题也很可能只是细节的题目,这个时候应用视听基本一致就变得非常简单。文章的结尾往往很重要,通常会有结论出现。基本在所有的新知识普及型文章中,都有两个通用的出题点--a,实验带来的最终结论;b,科学研究者的直接引用观点即得出的最可能的理论和设想。所以,请大家注意如a,





research/ survey/ statistics/ evidence/ studies…+ show/ reveal/





indicate…和b, scientist/ researcher/ a certain scientist's name…+





believe/ find/ discover/ estimate…组合后方的内容,往往是答案所在的区域。





此外,请大家关注一下两个话题近两年在网络上的相关文章:a,环保、新能源、新材料;b,健康和医疗新突破。





四,复合式听写





1,





审题。先看第一句,判断出该篇的主题、感情基调及时态。再看单词空格前后的单词或短语,以此推知空格中所填单词的词性甚至词义。此外还需注意句子空格前后是什么单词,以判断句子的起止点。





2,





速记。复合式听写在第一遍读文章时,时间是比较不够用的,所以如何锻炼自己速记能力很重要。如departmentàdept.,





difficultàdifft, three months laterà 3m>, eight days





agoà





<8d等。对于写字慢的同学,句子不一定完全照搬,可以记下重点词,之后凭印象和逻辑连词成句。





3,





注意单词拼写。一般常考的单词是名词和动词。名词需要注意单复数,动词需要注意时态。句子中如果遇到不会拼写的单词,可用同义词替换。





例题:





2009年6月六级考试复合式听写第36题





English is the leading international language. In different





countries around the globe, English is acquired as the mother (36)





________, in others it's used as a second language.





答案:tongue







相信大部分同学只要看了这句话,就都可以猜出在空格里填入的单词和前面mother构成的短语意思应该是"母语",于是填入tongue。实际上这个空格是无需听音即可填出的。





例题:





1999年6月六级考试复合式听写第S1题





President Clinton later today joins (S1) ________presidents





Ford, Garter and Bush at "the president's summit for American's





future" aimed at recruiting one million volunteer tutors…





答案: former





同样的,无需听音,即可猜出S1空格应和presidents搭配意为"前总统",于是填入former.











最后,祝各位考生在考试中取得满意的成绩!
