地球产生了大量的尘埃遮蔽了太阳光,温度过低,植物死了,恐龙没有食物所以灭绝了。 但是教授表示不支持这种观点,他认为火山爆发产生了很多的suldox让天气变了,这是一个缓慢的过程,在一个地方发现了化石,表明insect和鸟在那个时间都役灭绝。所以不会是彗星撞地球,火山爆发比较靠谱。

2020年12月19日托福听力真题 12月19日托福听力对话:学生服务场景 女生丢了register card,没了就不能去博物馆看展览,因为本来需要写agricultural的论文,她去傅物馆找素材。这礼拜不去傅物馆 就要买computer就要关门了。所以需要一个新的卡,然后老师以为 她没有通过email发给他表格, 后来想起来女生己经填过了表格,然 后说如果要新的卡需要预约,然后拍照什么的才能办理,但是因为她 很着急,工作人员说就给她办了个临时的,女生说要去教授那里说她 丢了card的事情,男的说今天我们这里关门了,你明后天应该能拿到 正式的卡片。 12月19日托福听力讲座:社会科学 科技和社会发展之间的关系。科技有时候会独立影响社会的发展,比如在打印机出来以后,德国人读写水平进步很大,开始强调版权什 么的。教授说其实有些影响很远,比如说工业革命。因为有了打印机 科学家交流变多,才得以工业革命的发展,这里看起来所有的影响都 是积极的,其实没有什么积极不积极,仅仅它有一定影响。但是这个 理论现在很不全面,因为有的科技就算己经有了但是也需要等人们能 够接受了才会开始发展,举了古代的希腊的发明的例子,因为当时认 为写实主义不好,所以photo就没发展起来,后来到了1900年的欧洲,举了斯卡布罗集市那个油画,说明当时人们想记录一下平日的瞬间生活,这个时候写实主义达到了能够接受科技photograph的时候,科技 才能促动社会进步。 12月19日托福听力讲座:自然科学 海洋的水为什么流动的,生物学解释,先说有湿水也有热水形成 对流然后举了新观点说是鱼群游动时候推的,女生问是不是鲸鱼推的多,它们的尾巴一摆就直接mix了,教授说小鱼群数目多,他们游动 时候水流也很快。教授举了jellyfish ,说实验给它染色,每一次游

托福听力主旨题五个答题技巧

托福听力:托福考试中主旨题五个答题技巧 新托福听力考试总共有六大技巧的测试与考核。与这六大技巧相对,ETS有六大题型的测试,分别是:主旨题、细节题、句子功能题、态度题、结构题和推论题。而托福官方指南将这六大考题细归类为B, P, C三部分(Basic Comprehension Question, Pragmatic Comprehension Question, Connecting Information Question)。B部分包括:主旨题和细节题;P 部分包括句子功能题和态度题;C部分又包括结构题和推论题。 在这六大题型中,出镜率最高、几乎每篇文章(我们知道托福听力考试涉及的文章有两种:conversation和lecture)都会涉及到的题目就是主旨题。把握好主旨题同样又是解答其他题目的关键。什么是主旨题呢?ETS官方给出的解释是:对话和讲座的大概意思,即文章主要涉及的是什么内容!关于主旨题,其实很多学生发现它是所有题型中最简单的一道题目。可是往往我们如果不掌握一定的解题技巧和关键策略的话这道题同样可能丢分。所以,把握好主旨题是解题的重中之重。 下面我就如何解答主旨题做一下总结与点评: 1、主旨题在原文和题目中的位置 首先,大家要明确托福听力考试的一大特色就是题目顺序与文章的行文顺序相一致。所以,同学们要明确的是主旨题出现在文章的开头部分,绝对不会出现在文章的中间部分。其中需要注意的一点是,在结尾部分同样可能会出现帮助解答主旨题的解题内容。因为老师很可能对文章内容进行概括和总结。那么,结尾部分就可能出现主旨题的答案!但是,这种情况比较少见!所以按照文章的行文顺序,主旨题题目一般只会出现于第一道题。所以通常,不管是conversation还是lecture,主旨题都会出现于首道题目。明确了题目的位置之后,我们来看一下主旨题的分类。 2、主旨题题型分类及典型问法 主旨题分为目的主旨和内容主旨。 目的主旨:考查对话目的而非内容,即两个说话者的对话目的和教授讲这篇文章的目的。目的主旨一般出现于conversation中。 目的主旨典型问法:Why does the student visit the professor? Why d oes the student visit the registrar’s office? Why did the professor ask to see the student? Why does the professor explain X? 内容主旨:要求考生理解讲座或对话的主旨大意。材料有时会明确提出主旨,有时会很含蓄。要求学生对听到的信息进行归纳总结。 内容主旨典型问法:What problem does the man have? What are the speakers talking about? What is the main ideaof the lecture? What aspect of X does the professor mainly discuss? 3、主旨题解题技巧 关于解题技巧大家应该首先注意的是这两种题型与大家词汇量的多少无关。也就是说,词汇量即使很少也不会给这两种题型的解题造成障障碍。首先要听准开头;特别是开头句型,之后找出对话目的;如果开头没有把握准,那么要注意全文重复词汇;最后要听准关键词并对实义词(名词、动词、形容词)足够敏感。那么,如何听准开头呢?在conversation和lecture 的开头中,有的文章会出现寒暄部分。 比如,在conversation中两个说话者的在开头部分都会出现互相问好的寒暄语:
