很多同学在托福听力答题的时候常常出现一些不必要的错误,结果不幸被扣分。那在托福听力考试的时候,如何避免这些问题呢?今天小编给大家总结了听力中常犯的漏听项和错误,希望各位托福考生在托福备考的时候注意一下问题,避免丢分。
一、选项中的单词不认识
选项中的单词不认识直接导致选项无法正常翻译理解。
举个例子:
Why does the professor discuss refugia? (Click on 2 answers)
A. To explain that the location of coral within a reef affects the coral's ability to survive
B. To point out why some coral species are more susceptible to bleaching than others
C. To suggest that bleaching is not as detrimental to coral health as first thought
D. To illustrate the importance of studying coral that has a low vulnerability of bleaching
这道题B选项中的susceptible,C选项中的detrimental,D选项中的vulnerability很多同学不认识,不知其意,所以在选择答案时出现困难。
解决方法
课后通过单词书大量积累词汇,做题时在文章中和选项中积累生词,形成自己的生词本。
二、选项翻译错误
由于对句子成分辨识不清,导致翻译出错。
举个例子:
What point do the speakersmake about the background of The Dreamer?
A. It is a good example ofBeaux's unusual style of brushstroke.
B.It resembles the backgrounds ofother Beaux portraits.
C.Its lack of clarity emphasizesthe theme of the painting.
D.It is meant to suggest thatthe woman is in a dark room.
这道题的正确答案为C,正确翻译是:缺少清晰度的背景强调了这幅画的主题
很多同学把这句话中的lack看成了谓语动词,翻译成:背景没有清晰的强调这幅画的主题,和正确的翻译截然相反,导致选错。
解决方法
仔细研究语法,确定好词性和句子成分。
三、形近词看错
由于把选项中的形近词看混,或者把某个词看成另外一个形近词,导致理解错误。
举个例子:
What is the lecture mainly about?
A.The environmental effects of heap roasting
B. The reforestation efforts in the Copper Basin
C. The process of mining and producing copper
D. Damages caused during an attempt to clean up industrial waste
有部分同学把AB选项中的effect和effort看混,或者把B选项中的reforestation看成deforestation,导致理解的意思截然不同,所以选错。
解决方法
仔细审题审选项,二次检查。
