托福听力观点组织题解题思路
一、 观点组织题的题干一般以这样的方式出现
Why does the professor mention a merchant who ate tulip bulbs?
Why does the professor explain the design of a pedestrian mall?
最常见的方式就是以Why does the professor mention…? 为什么教授会提到…?
二、 解题思路
那么如何来解这种托福听力题型呢?我们常说不要满篇找答案,答案出在哪里就在哪里找答案。对于观点组织题,这一点更为重要。那么如何来解观点组织题呢? 其实观点组织题就是要提炼出一个观点。那么从哪里定位这个观点呢?那我们就要注意在题干中提到也是文章中讲到的例子。如:
Why does the professor mention a merchant who ate tulip bulbs?
这里的例子是tulip bulbs那我们就到托福考试听力文章中找tulip bulbs出现的位置,那么我们要找的观点也就是答案就在这个例子的前面或后面。一般来说是在例子的前面。为什么我们要找的观点在例子的周围呢?因为文章中提到的这个例子就是为了说明这个观点。
我们具体来看这个例子,TPO6 L1。文章中提到
For the Europeans, tulips were totally unheard of, uh…a great novelty. The first bulb to show up in the Netherlands, the merchant who received them roasted and ate them. He thought they were kind of onion.
Why does the professor mention a merchant who ate tulip bulbs?
A. to explain how the Turks introduce the flower to European visitors
B. to explain what happened to tulip bulbs that did not produce desirable colors
C. to give an example of one way that the rich in the Netherlands showed off their wealth
D. to illustrate her point that Europeans were unfamiliar with the flower
答案是D
从这道题我们可以看到,文章先说在那时郁金香对于欧洲人来说是新奇事物,是闻所未闻的。接着为了进一步说明这个观点,举了商人吃郁金香球茎的例子。所以,举这个例子就是为了说明由于当时的欧洲人对郁金香是多么不熟悉,不了解。这和答案D对应。
所以,从这道题可以看出,观点是位于商人吃郁金香这个例子之前的。
这是最常见的一种观点组织题
三、 托福听力观点组织题的其他类型
除了上面介绍的最常见的一种观点组织题,也就是Why does the professor mention…?这一类之外。我们还有其它一类可归为观点组织题。就是表格题和排序题。举例来说,
TPO1 L2
Uranium-Lead Dating allowed them to go about it in an entirely different way. What they did was: they looked at the grains of Zircon in the sandstone. Zircon is a material that contains radioactive Uranium, which makes it very useful for dating purposes.So if you measure the amount of Lead in the Zircon grain, you can figure out when the grain was formed. After that, you can determine the age of Zircon from different mountain ranges. Once you do that, you can compare the age of the Zircon in the sandstone in your sample to the age of the Zircon in the mountains. If the age of the Zircon matches the age of one of your mountain ranges, then it means the sandstone actually used to be part of that particular mountain range.
In the talk, the professor describes the sequence of uranium-lead dating. Summarize the sequence by putting the events in the correct order.
Drag your answer choices to the spaces where they belong. To remove an answer choice, click on it.
Zircon in the sandstone in matched to the zircon in a particular mountain range
The amount of lead in sandstone zircon is measured
The age of zircon in a sandstone sample is determined
这就是第二类观点组织题的例子。这类题涉及的无非就是操作步骤或形成过程。那么它的解题思路就是按照听到的步骤或过程来做题。
