Part I:Listening:Talking about lifestyle 1.Language and Culture Notes: Please refer to the Language and Culnre Notes in Teacher's Book (Book Two)for College English---Focus Listening and Speaking (Pages 190.193.203.206) 2.Listening skills in an interview and a conversation: “在人物采访类的题目中,我们要把握这类听力材料的特点。采访都是两个人的采访,一 个是采访者,另一个是被采访者,两人一问一答。主要的话题都是采访者发起的,被采访者 则按照采访者的问题一步一步向听录音者介绍相关情况。而在选择题中出现的问题所涉及的 都是被采访者所提供的信息.因此听录音的过程中考生可以把采访者的问题看成听录音的一 种指标。当采访者提出的问题与选择题中出现的问愿相关时,学生就可以把接下来的内容作 为重点来听。这样考生的理解就有了重点。而在很多情况下选择题的题目与采访者的问题会 出现重合的情况。学生做这类题的正确率会大大提高。 在对话类的试题中则是双方的互动。这点似乎与人物访谈类不同。但是仔细分析一下,我 们不难看出两者的关系。不论是人物采访还是对话中,必须有一方是信息的提供者。另一方 同学生一样是信息的接受者。当然,这两种试题是有差异的。这中差异主要是在提供信息的 顺序上。在人物访谈类中,信息提供的顺序是按照采访者的问题进行的。而在对话类中,信 息提供的顺序是按照信息提供者自己的顺序进行的。也就是说,在对话类中,提供信息者占 据主动,而不像采访类按照采访者的问题来提供信总。这样学生在对话类题目当中就出现了 一个问题。在人物访问类试题当中,学生可以按照采访者提问的顺序来判断需要重点听的内 容。而在对话类中,学生就没有这种判断优势了。所以如果出现综合性的问题,需要考生记 住前面的信息。由于阅读速度比较快,留给学生的时间比较短,学生必须在录音之前看一下 题目和选项。从而提高考生对关健信息的判断能力。 3.Homework Finish Part D-“Home Listening”of this unit
