托福听力题型托福听力内容主旨题

在托福听力考试中,内容主旨题是每一篇lecture必考的题目,它将会出现在每一篇lecture的第一题。这是相对简单的题目,所以是我们的一个得分点。那么到底来如何拿好这一分呢,我们先来了解一下内容主旨题的主要特点。主旨,顾名思义是要知道这一篇文章主要的内容是什么,是全文的一个核心内容。

内容主旨典型提问方式
  What aspect of X does the professor mainly discuss?
  What are the speakers talking about?
  What is the main idea of the lecture?
  What problem does the man have?

内容主旨题解题方法
  一般情况下,lecture的开头会先是复习段落,professor会先复习上一节课所出现的内容,所以我们常会听到we’ve been talking about .....或者last time we talked about ..... 这一段的内容希望同学们去听、去理解而不做任何的笔记,因为上节课的内容不是听力的一个出题点并不会被考到,但是上节课的内容有可能会和今天所讲的内容有一些关联性,所以一定要认真听,可以给我们一些提示帮助我们理解或者猜测主旨内容。

再接下来professor会引出今天的主旨,常见的信号词有today we will talk about.../today we will discuss.../today we will look at.../today we will tell...这里所出现的信息希望同学们可以快速的记录下来,就算这里给的是一个我们不认识的专有词也请根据这个单词的读音给出一个大概的拼写或者用首字母来记录,接下来教授一定会对这个专有词或者这个主旨进行解释,而这个解释段的内容也一定用一两个单词记一下,因为很有可能这个解释段才是主旨题的答案,而不是那个专有词。

譬如 TPO17L2:
  But today I'd like to talk a little bit about other theories that can explain variations in climate. And one of the best-known is called the Milankovitch Hypothesis.

Now what the Milankovitch Hypothesis is about? It says that variations in earth's movements, specifically in its orbit around the sun, these variations lead to differences in the amount of solar energy that reaches the earth.
And it is these differences in the amount of energy that's reaching earth from the sun; it is what causes variations in earth's climate.

我们先听到了信号词today I'd like to talk 然后我们听到了一个专有词 Milankovitch Hypothesis,我们不认识Milankovitch Hypothesis,就可以记录成MLKVC HYPO或者M HYPO。然后紧接着又听到了它的解释段的内容,我们需要记录到movement /sun/climate 这些名词就可以。

What is the lecture mainly about?
  A hypothesis that explains how changes in Earth’s motions affect climate.
  A hypothesis that explains why the shape of earth’s orbit varies over time.
  Reasons it is difficult to find evidence to support hypotheses about the climate.
  Analyses of the accuracy of data collected in different ways.

很明显A是正确答案,但在这个答案里并没有出现Milankovitch Hypothesis。所以主旨题里的解释段是非常重要的。
