Deep Springs is an American college. It is an unusual college. It is high in the white mountains in California not in a college town. The campus is a collection of old

buildings with no beautiful classrooms. The only college-like thing about Deep Springs is its library. Students can study from the 17,000 books 24 hours a day. The library is never crowded as there are only 24 well-qualified male students at the college. In addition, there are only five full-time professors. These teachers believe in the idea of this college. They need to believe in it. They do not get much money. In fact, their salaries are only about 9,000 dollars a year plus room and meals. The school gives the young teachers as well as the students something more important than money. "There is no place like Deep Springs," says a second-year student from New York State, "Most colleges today are much the same but Deep Springs is not afraid to be different. " He says that students at his college are in a situation quite unlike in the other school. Students are there to learn and they cannot run away from problems. There is no place to escape to. At most colleges, students can close their books and go to a film. They can go out to restaurants or to parties. Deep Springs students have completely different

alternatives. They can talk to each other or to their teachers. Another possible activity is to go to the library to study. They might decide to do some work. The student who doesn' t want to do any of these activities can go for a walk in the desert. Deep Springs is far from the world of restaurants and cinemas. There is not even a television set on campus.

Questions 17 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.

17. What is the total number of students at Deep Springs College?

18. What is true of the campus of Deep Springs College?

19. Which of the following is mentioned in the passage?

大学英语四级听力技巧规律总结

大学英语四级听力技巧规律及常见词汇总结 四级听力的三个基本思路: 1. 学习——基于学生的角度,一定是抱怨学习 2. 生活——poor,很穷。 Student ID 学生证用于discount 打折,bargain 讨价还价 3. 学习vs 生活——忙,忙于学习 (就是说,解题从这三个思路出发,如果听不清题目说什么,就用这三个思路 往上套) Part I对话题 一.But 题型 形式:A:…… B:……,but ……. 重点听第二个说话人B说话,but 后面所说的话为重点,出题点往往在but 后面。四级听力题中,But 后面的为重点的占95%,之前的为重点的占5%。 e.g. (这题是反例,考的居然是but之前的内容,不过这种情况很少出现的) A: I suppose you’ve bought some gifts for your family. B: Well, I’ve bought a shirt for my father and two books for my sister. But I’ve not decided what to buy for my mother. Probably some jewels. Question: Who did the man buy the book for? Answer: His sister. 二. 场景题 1. 每一类场景,常考出题思路——用于解题 2. 线索词 场景题选项特点: (1) 介词结构in/at somewhere (2) To do开头的(问的是purpose目的) (3) Doing……/ They’re doing……/They’re …ing.

四级听力高分必杀技:越早准备越好

四级听力高分必杀技:越早准备越好 关于听力应试方面,我们主张培养学生“抢读预测”+“五边处理法”这种眼、耳、手、口、脑并用的积极主动的应试技能。 “抢读预测”即利用导言及题与题之间的间隙,提前扫视选项,预测出题方向,以便等录音内容开始时可以有目的地捕捉所需信息。“五边处理法”即边听,边理解,边复述(适用于单句、短对话和数据方面的内容),边做笔记,边猜测(推断)。这里我们重点谈谈“立即复述”、“做笔记”与听的关系以及这“二边”的具体操作方法。 很多同学讲,“考听力时我都听懂了,可等到作选择的时候,却好像有一半都记不清了。”这是极正常的,原因是我们在听的时候,大部分注意力在理解方面,加上没有及时对所提细节做笔记,自然便会听了后面忘了前面,而听力测试的重点往往就在细节的辨识上。因此,考生不仅要听懂录音中的语言信息,还应通过一些有效途径在短时内强记重要信息,如年代、人物、事件、地点、单价、折扣价(幅度)、门牌号等。一个人即使记忆力再好,要记清如此多的细节也不容易,那么只有靠笔记帮忙。考试大 (1)养成立即复述的习惯 记笔记是有诀窍的。在听单句(statement)时,由于句子完全孤立,没有任何语境,又只念一遍,听者只能靠一遍的理解和记忆,在选择项中找出意思与原文相同或相近者。因此,准确捕捉所给信息是问题的关键。这时必须借助“立即复述”这一有效手段,即:在听录音时以仅落后1─2秒的时间立即重复原试句,以帮助强化记忆,作出正确选择。有人曾作过实验,结果表明:“一个语言信号只经过外耳道,在大脑中理解记忆的可能性假设为一,那么经过口头复述,在大脑中理解记忆的可能性则为三。因为同一信号经过外耳道传入大脑,而另一部分声音则直接从口腔经过内耳道传入大脑,所以,复述一次的效果是不复述的三倍。”因而,考生在平时训练中很有必要加强复述练习,它一方面可以帮助你加深对听懂部分的印象,另一方面也有助于重新理解、咀嚼未听懂部分,从而有效捕捉并记录重要信息点,提高准确率。 “立即复述”关键在“立即”二字,若等到一句话念完了再去复述,就很难记清全句,复述也就失去了意义。正确的操作方法是:当一句话刚一开始,你就以仅慢1~2秒的速度紧跟其后,出声跟读,仿佛你的复述是原试句的回声,并在复述的同时进行理解并做记录。此法在教学实践中使用过多年,得到使用者的一致肯定。做复述练习的好处还不仅限于此,它还能帮助你增强信心,集中注意力,纠正发音,复述多了,还能培养语感,有助于口语的提高。 (2)学会做笔记 做笔记能帮助我们理解听力材料,提高区分有用信息和无用信息的能力。更重要的一点还在于它能帮我们减轻大脑的负担,完整而准确地把握所听材料的主要内容。 记笔记的方式可因人而异。你可以在选择项旁尽可能记下文中所提及的人名、地名、各种数据、事实和理由等你认为重要的信息。好的笔记应是对所听内容作出的简要提纲,可以用关键词,也可以用短语或句子来表示,关键是要简洁、明白、快捷。你也可以边听边快速核对A、B、C、D各项内容,用对错号加以标示,或针对不同选项就内容做简单笔记(后两种方法在对话部分较实用)。 例如: W:I hope the library is open now. M:Look at the sign.It says:9 a.m.to 5 p.m.weekdays?9 a.m.to 3 p.m.Saturdays?9 a.m.to 12 noon Sundays. Q:When will the library be open on Saturdays?
