雅思聽力場景分析——圖書館篇

　　雅思聽力可以分為兩大類: Survival English 和 Academic English. 那么圖書管場景屬于Survival English范疇. 圖書管場景的聽力對于考生來書應該比較熟悉.因為是和我們的生活息息相關的.

　　圖書管場景題通常出現在Table-filling圖表完成題中. 在做圖書館這類題的時候,可以按照下面的四個步驟來進行: 讀試題指引和問題, 聆聽綜合資料,聽重要字句,最后寫答案. 在正式聆聽前，會有時間閱讀試題，應趁這段時間預測將會聽到的內容。對測驗內容的預測愈準確分數會愈高。比如預測會有多少人說話，他們會做什么，說什么和會用什么字。通常來說圖書館里面可能發生的事情就是借書,還書, 找人,自習等等.實際上這些內容我們可以預料70%.

　　例題分析:

　　材料節選:

　　The British Library has a number of constituent parts. The major sections of the organization known as the British Library are the Library of the British Museum, Patent Office, National Central Library, and the British Library Document Supply Centre.

　　The Department of Printed Books of the British Museum was founded in the same year of the foundation of the British museum, in 1753. The library has the privilege of legal deposit, which means that a copy of a large proportion of all printed material in the U.K. goes to the British Library. These include not only books, journals and magazines, but also newspapers, maps and printed music.

　　The British Museum’s domed Reading Room is well known in intellectual circles, and was designed in the 1850s at the instigation of Sir Anthony Panizzi, then Chief Librarian. Originally the Reading room was open to the general public, but, due to overcrowding, a pass was required for admission. In addition to Vladimir Lenin, other famous readers in this exclusive place of study included Karl Marx, and the writers Charles Dickens, George Bernard Shaw and Virginia Woolf.

　　The British Library Document Supply Centre currently administers a stock of over 260,000 journal titles, over 3 million books, almost 500,000 conference proceedings and nearly 5,000,000 scientific reports. Its 20,000customers from all over the world make about 4,000,000 requests every year.

　　Thanks to the Internet, customers can now access information and services online as document supply is achieved via electronic means. The British Library’s website is .

　　解析:

　　1. 在做這道題目的時候, 可以先看問題然后再著手去聽去做. 這樣可以帶著問題去做題. 效果更好,對的百分比也會比較大.

　　2. 要正確分清詞匯的意思,要注意到重復和強調的單詞. 還應該在留意聆聽一條問題的答案時注意下一條問題，如不先看下一條問題，當不幸地錯過一個答案的時候，會跟不上整段內容，當下一條問題的答案出現時，也許還在等上一條問題的答案。

　　3. 這點一定要切記,尤其是再做這種圖表題的時候. 最后是要留意記號字或句子的出現和語氣音調突然轉變，這樣可以幫助注意什么時候轉問題。還有就是要多多注意數字信號詞等,像上面標出的藍色字體都是文章中重要的信息點. 文章總最后出現了The British Library’s website is ,這樣的詞匯要多多注意,所以最后一題的答案可以輕松獲得了.

　　4. 鍛煉“回憶”重要信息的能力。理論上我們是有可能將所有聽力段落適時聽寫下來的。曾經聽說速記員能一字不漏記錄對話信息，只要經過培訓，任何人都可以做到這一點。雖然我們對英語的聽力水平遠遠達不到母語的聽力程度。回憶聽力內容，不是要盡力回憶“一切”信息，而是在note-taking的基礎上，有選擇地回憶主要情節，段落結構，關鍵定義，名稱或日期等重要信息點。

　　答案:

　　1. National Central Library

　　2. 1753

　　3. newspapers

　　4. (printed) music

　　5. Reading Room

　　6. scientific reports

　　7. bl.uk

　　這樣圖書館的題目就輕松完成了. 總之,要掌握技巧去回答問題,把握文章的總體脈絡,集中精力去找信號詞,獲得有意義的信息點,相信雅思聽力高分將悄然而至.
