PART Ⅰ LISTENING COMPREHENSION [30 MIN]

SECTION A MINI-LECTURE

In this section you will hear a mini-lecture. You will hear the lecture ONCE ONLY. While listening, take notes on the important points. Your notes will not be marked, but you will need them to complete a gap-filling task after the mini-lecture. When the lecture is over, you will be given two minutes to check your notes, and another ten minutes to complete the gap-filling task on ANSWER SHEET ONE. Use the blank sheet for note taking.

【答案與解析】

(1) basic steps

(細(xì)節(jié)題。錄音開(kāi)始提到寫(xiě)論文與寫(xiě)普通文章時(shí)涉及到的許多基本步驟是一樣的(Both kinds of writing involve many of the same basic steps)，所以可直接從講座中得出答案basic steps。)

(2) raw material

(細(xì)節(jié)題。錄音中提到論文的不同之處在于許多原始材料并不是來(lái)自你自己的頭腦之中，而是來(lái)自一些出版材料，因此主要不同在于raw material的來(lái)源不同，故答案為raw material。)

(3) head

(細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)錄音，論文的不同之處在于許多原始材料并不是來(lái)自你自己的頭腦之中，言外之意即普通文章的原始材料源于“head”。)

(4) facts and opinions

(細(xì)節(jié)題。文中提到，對(duì)于調(diào)查性論文而言，你得收集大量的關(guān)于一個(gè)話題的事實(shí)和觀點(diǎn)，In a survey-type research paper, you gather facts and a variety of opinions on a given topic.，故可知答案為facts and opinions。)

(5) explain

(細(xì)節(jié)題。從講座中可知，“survey-type paper”寫(xiě)作有三個(gè)要求，分別是“gather facts”“through quotation”和“you explain”。前兩個(gè)題干中已提到，故本題答案為關(guān)于“survey-type paper”的第三個(gè)方面“explain”。)

(6) objective

(細(xì)節(jié)題。文中提到“you try to provide a representative sampling of facts and opinions to give an objective report on your topic”。因此作者對(duì)論文的報(bào)道要客觀objective。)

(7) Purpose

(細(xì)節(jié)題。文中提到“your purpose may vary with your topic”，因此作者的目的應(yīng)隨話題的變化而變化，故答案為purpose，注意大寫(xiě)。)

(8) ask some questions

(細(xì)節(jié)題。講座的第二部分論述的是寫(xiě)報(bào)告的其中一個(gè)步驟——選題，本題針對(duì)選題時(shí)的一些準(zhǔn)備提問(wèn)。文中提到“As you think about your topic, ask yourself these questions”，因此決定一篇論文時(shí)應(yīng)自問(wèn)一些問(wèn)題，演講者并在下文具體講述了這些問(wèn)題究竟是什么。很容易得出答案ask yourself these questions，但是題目限制最多填入三個(gè)單詞，故可填入ask some questions。)

(9) a manageable size

(細(xì)節(jié)題。演講者在論述選題時(shí)要怎么做時(shí)，提出要問(wèn)自己的四個(gè)問(wèn)題，本題針對(duì)第三個(gè)問(wèn)題——將話題縮小到一個(gè)自己可以控制的范圍(cut the topic down to a manageable size) ——設(shè)題。直接提取答案 a manageable size。)

(10) the topic itself

(細(xì)節(jié)題。本題針對(duì)第四個(gè)問(wèn)題設(shè)題。第四個(gè)問(wèn)題開(kāi)始演講者就指出其主要內(nèi)容“What questions can you ask about the topic itself?”，就論文本身寫(xiě)作者可提出什么問(wèn)題，故可直接得出答案the topic itself。)

【錄音原文】

Writing a Research Paper

I think as seniors, you are often required by your instructors to do some library research on this topic or that. And, in the end, you have to write a research paper, right? Then what is writing a research paper like? How are we going to write one? What are the steps in producing a research paper and what are the points we need to take care of? In today’s lecture, I’ll try to answer these questions.

First of all, what is writing a research paper like? We may start by comparing it to an ordinary essay, a form of writing you are very familiar with. Writing a research paper is much like writing an essay. [1]Both kinds of writing involve many of the same basic steps. That is, choosing a topic, asking questions to define and develop the topic, identifying the audience, getting raw material to work with, outlining the paper, writing it, and, finally, revising it. These are the steps shared between research paper writing and essay writing.

Is there any difference, you may ask. Yes. [2][3] What makes a research paper different is that much of your raw material comes not from your own head, but from printed sources: mainly books and periodicals in the library. Collecting raw material, that is reading books and taking notes, is very much like the process of brainstorming at the prewriting stage of an ordinary essay.

Generally speaking, there are two basic types of research papers, and a paper may belong to either type. It may be a survey of facts and opinions available on a given topic or an analytical argument that uses those facts and opinions to prove a point. Your instructor may tell you which kind of paper you are expected to write. If not, you yourself should eventually choose between surveying and arguing. You will then have a definite way of managing your sources.

Now, let’s take a look at how you are going to write a survey-type research paper or an argumentative。
