英語六級聽力調(diào)整和改革

　　這次六級在聽力上的改革，刪除了所有同學(xué)做慣的老題型——短對話和聽寫，增加了大家相對陌生的講座講話(六級)。所有的題，將都以選擇題的形式出現(xiàn)。并且首次出現(xiàn)了分值為2分的聽力題。難度上有了大幅度的提高。   　　針對于六級的此次改革，小編第一時(shí)間給收集資料為大家進(jìn)行解析   　　六級聽力試題的調(diào)整   　　1. 取消短對話   　　2. 取消短文聽寫   　　3. 聽力篇章調(diào)整為2篇(原3篇)   　　4. 新增講座/講話(3篇)   　　其他測試內(nèi)容不變。   　　調(diào)整后六級聽力部分的試題結(jié)構(gòu)見下表：     　　改革之處：   　　短文聽力從原先的3篇縮減為2篇。   　　新增講座與講話3篇，此題型與托福考試中的Lecture相似。   　　每篇Lecture，字?jǐn)?shù)大約在350-450詞左右。   　　在四六級考試委員會此次所給出的樣題中，三篇講座/講話文章皆出自于托福試題。   　　難點(diǎn)所在：   　　首先，篇幅方面，新增的Lecture部分，字?jǐn)?shù)大約在350-450詞左右，相較于短文部分(250詞左右)，篇幅上有了很大的提升，同學(xué)們在聽題的過程中，不容易抓住重點(diǎn)。   　　其次，內(nèi)容方面，話題也將不再是大家熟悉的校園類、生活類，而將轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)楫?dāng)前的社會與經(jīng)濟(jì)問題或是科技發(fā)展。在托福考試中，講座部分還經(jīng)常會涉及到學(xué)科方面，因此整體的詞匯表達(dá)對同學(xué)而言都相對陌生，難度系數(shù)大大增強(qiáng)。   　　應(yīng)對方法：   　　1. 詞匯積累：除了原本六級聽力高頻詞匯之外，同學(xué)們還可以開始對于托福聽力的高頻詞匯進(jìn)行一定的積累和背誦。   　　2. 掌握Lecture規(guī)律：同樣作為正式文章，講座/講話的內(nèi)容邏輯性強(qiáng)，結(jié)構(gòu)清晰。同學(xué)們在聽題的過程中，明確內(nèi)容的邏輯結(jié)構(gòu)，對于提高正確率有很大的幫助。   　　通常，開篇會進(jìn)行背景介紹以及話題引入;在正式的內(nèi)容中，會從當(dāng)前情況、面臨問題、解決方法、未來展望等方面鋪展開。同學(xué)們可以與審題相結(jié)合，提高對于文章的把握。   　　3. 著手練習(xí)：   　　由于新增題型源自于托福，因此同學(xué)們可以先從較為基礎(chǔ)的托福lecture題目進(jìn)行練習(xí)，熟悉題型。平時(shí)，多收聽收看TED演講以及國外大學(xué)的公開課。對于社會與經(jīng)濟(jì)方面的內(nèi)容，多加關(guān)注，注重積累。   　　4.名師解析：   　　四六級改革，同學(xué)們也不要太焦慮，大家可以多關(guān)注，有問題也可以第一時(shí)間交流哦!   　　Section A   　　Directions: In this section, you will hear two long conversations.

At the end of each conversation, you will hear some questions. Both the conversation and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1with a single line through the centre.   　　Conversation One   　　W: Hello.   　　M: Hello, is that the reference library?   　　W: Yes. Can I help you?   　　M: I hope so. I rang earlier and asked for some information about Denys Hawtin, the scientist. You asked me to ring back.   　　W: Oh, yes. I have found something.   　　M: Good. I’ve got a pencil and paper. Perhaps you could read out what it says.   　　W: Certainly. Hawtin, Denys. Born: Darlington 1836; died New York 1920.   　　M: Yes. Got that.   　　W: Inventor and physicist. The son of a farm worker, he was admitted to the University of London at the age of fifteen.   　　M: Yes.   　　W: He graduated at seventeen with a first class degree in Physics and Mathematics. All right?   　　M: Yes, all right.   　　W: He made his first notable achievement at the age of eighteen. It was a method of refrigeration which arose from his work in low temperature physics. He became professor of Mathematics at the University of Manchester at twenty-four, where he remained for twelve years. During that time he married one of his students, Natasha Willoughby.   　　M: Yes. Go on.   　　W: Later, working together in London, they laid the foundation of modern Physics by showing that normal laws of cause and effect do not apply at the level of subatomic particles. For this he and his wife received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1910, and did so again in 1912 for their work on very high frequency radio waves. In his lifetime Hawtin patented 244 inventions. Do you want any more?   　　M: Yes. When did he go to America?   　　W: Let me see. In 1920 he went to teach in New York, and died there suddenly after only three weeks. Still, he was a good age.   　　M: Yes. I suppose so. Well, thanks.   　　Questions 1 to 4 are based on the conversation you have just heard.   　　1. What do we learn about Denys Hawtin when he was 15?   　　2. What did Denys Hawtin do at the age of 24?   　　3. For what were Denys Hawtin and his wife awarded the Nobel Prize a second time?   　　4. Why did Denys Hawtin go to New York?   　　Conversation Two   　　W: This is Lisa Meyer in the WBZ newsroom, talking with Mike Bassichis, who is the director of the Gifford School, about the cleanup from last week’s fire and what the possible cause of that blaze may have been.   　　M: We’re getting ready for our entire staff to return early from vacation tomorrow whereupon we are going to move into temporary classrooms. And the other buildings that did not burn are being de-smoked. As to the cause of the fire, all we know is that we were having trouble with the pilot lights since we bought the stove in July and it had been serviced three times. Well, as a matter of fact, we think it was a malfunctioning stove that may have caused the fire. Nothing definite yet has been determined.   　　W: Have you heard from other schools or other institutional users of this stove that have had the same problem?   　　M: No. I wouldn’t know anything more about the stove itself. All I know is that this fire went up so quickly that there’s been a suspicion about why it went up so quickly. And it may be that there was a gas blast. But, again, this has not been determined officially by anybody.   　　W: I got you. When do kids come back to school?   　　M: Next Monday, and we will be ready for them. Monday January 4. We’re just extremely thrilled that no one was hurt and that’s because of the fire fighters that were here, nine of them. They’re wonderful.   　　W: And I’m sure you send your thanks out to them, uh?   　　M: Well, we’re sending out thanks to them in a letter or in any other way we can. I heard a story today where one of our kids actually baked some cookies and is taking it to the fire department, to give it to them.   　　Questions 5 to 8 are based on the conversation you have just heard.   　　5. What were the speakers talking about?   　　6. What were the school staff doing at the time of the accident?   　　7. What was supposed to be the cause of the accident?   　　8. What did one of the kids do to show gratitude?
