I 講座

1. 要點(diǎn)題
填空題基本上以講座的提綱形式出現(xiàn)。提綱一般以要點(diǎn)(bulletin ideas)為線索將講座的內(nèi)容有機(jī)構(gòu)架起來。所以往往在講座的要點(diǎn)處有填空部分。我們不妨先來看一下要點(diǎn)題的具體所處位置。2004年填空題的第4空格就是典型的要點(diǎn)題。

Conversational Skill
People who usually make us feel comfortable in conversations are good talkers.?And they have something in common, i.e. skills to put people at ease.
1. Skill to ask questions
2. Skill to (4) for answers
3. Skill to laugh
4. Skill to part

可以看到Conversational Skills一共分四大類,然后按照這四大類再細(xì)分具體的實(shí)施技巧方法。第二大類的技巧就是填空的第4題,要求給出第二個(gè)要點(diǎn)。

要點(diǎn)題一般在試題中為大標(biāo)題,以黑體突出顯示,也有一些大標(biāo)題之下小標(biāo)題的內(nèi)容填寫。講座的要點(diǎn)必須直截了當(dāng)告訴聽眾,使其能夠很好領(lǐng)會講座重點(diǎn),理清講座脈絡(luò),有效地對講座內(nèi)容歸類。所以只要仔細(xì)聽都能很好捕捉、記錄下來。以下是歷年試題中的一些要點(diǎn)題。

2004年講座:
Conversational Skills
Skill to ask questions
Skill to (4) for answers

講座里很清楚地說道:Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen for?answers. 和前面例子一樣,信息詞給考生明確的指示,Second之后就是第二要點(diǎn)的內(nèi)容。所以答案是listen。

2005年講座:
Writing a Research Paper
I. Research Paper and Ordinary Essay
A. Similarity in (1) :
e.g. —choosing a topic
—asking questions
—identifying the audience

講座繼提出中心內(nèi)容之后,開始講述要點(diǎn)。第一個(gè)要點(diǎn):First of all, what is writing a?research paper like? We may start by comparing it to an ordinary essay, … Both kinds of writing?involve many of the same basic steps. 填空題中對Research Paper 和Ordinary Essay 的要點(diǎn)A概括為Similarity in ,通過對講座內(nèi)容做的筆記我們就可以得出答案是basic steps。

2008年講座:
(6) in international travel
— use of English in travel and tourism
— signs in airports
— language of announcement
講座中分析英語成為世界通用語的原因,其中第三點(diǎn)為國際旅行的繁榮。關(guān)于這一內(nèi)容,講座里說得比較明朗:“And the third factor related to the popular use of English is the?boom in international travel.”所以可直接填入boom。

要點(diǎn)題是講座填空題比較好把握的一種題型,因?yàn)橹v座本身內(nèi)容排列有序,而填空題是講座的提綱。所以,只要考生在聽講座和記筆記的時(shí)候不遺漏要點(diǎn)的內(nèi)容,就能夠順利答題。

2011年講座:
C. Ways to record behavior (7) _______?observation with intervention
— participant observation: researcher as observer and participant

講座中的最后一部分是圍繞行為發(fā)生時(shí)記錄行為方法展開的:Having discussed ways to?sample behavior in research, we are now moving on to another issue. That is, what researchers should?do to record behavior as it occurs. 因此空格中需填入該部分的要點(diǎn)信息,即as it occurs。
