新托福口語(yǔ)應(yīng)試中不能忽略的技巧

字號(hào):

人類瞬時(shí)記憶的有限性,可以用速記方式加以彌補(bǔ)。新托??荚囋黾拥目谡Z(yǔ)部分就允許考生在聽、讀的同時(shí)作些筆記。這對(duì)考生在緊張的狀態(tài)下產(chǎn)生的“聽時(shí)明白聽后忘;讀時(shí)明白讀完忘”的現(xiàn)象確實(shí)是一個(gè)有益的幫助??於鴾?zhǔn)的筆記能幫助考生準(zhǔn)確地回憶剛剛讀到、聽到的內(nèi)容,進(jìn)而使考生能用恰當(dāng)?shù)恼Z(yǔ)言準(zhǔn)確地回答問(wèn)題以取得滿意的成績(jī)。因而,培養(yǎng)一種高效的速記能力在新托福考試中不僅顯得至關(guān)重要,而且勢(shì)在必行。
    考試中運(yùn)用怎樣的速記方法因人而異,你甚至可以自創(chuàng)一套獨(dú)特的、只有自己可以辨認(rèn)的速記符號(hào),但關(guān)鍵的問(wèn)題是你的速記要有助于你迅速而準(zhǔn)確地回想起一次性聽到的、讀到的東西。所以,“快”而“準(zhǔn)”就成了迅速記筆記所應(yīng)遵循的準(zhǔn)則。

    作記錄并不等于毫無(wú)遺漏地將聽到看到的每一個(gè)詞都記錄下來(lái),那既是不必要的,也是不現(xiàn)實(shí)的、不可能的,特別是在新托福的口語(yǔ)考試中。作記錄應(yīng)著重那些能反映關(guān)鍵信息的關(guān)鍵詞,能反映中心意義的核心句。先將它們符號(hào)化,然后再將這些符號(hào)還原成先前聽到或讀到的內(nèi)容。請(qǐng)看下面的例子:
    例如:
    In 1337, a terrible war began between England and France, and this war continued for almost a hundred years.
     記錄:1337,E war F → 100yrs
    速記實(shí)際上是我們突破記憶障礙的一種手段,是對(duì)記憶的一種補(bǔ)充,是對(duì)自己的一種提醒,因此,在作記錄時(shí)應(yīng)注意:
    1、所運(yùn)用的符號(hào)應(yīng)盡量簡(jiǎn)單,要便于快速書寫;
    2、自己創(chuàng)建的縮略語(yǔ)、符號(hào)等自己要能識(shí)別;
    3、要按聽、讀材料的內(nèi)容順序記錄關(guān)鍵詞和關(guān)鍵信息;
    4、作成的筆記可以串成與材料內(nèi)容相符的句子;
    5、平時(shí)要多練習(xí),保證眼耳手嘴并用,聽說(shuō)讀寫結(jié)合,并嚴(yán)格按考試要求的時(shí)間操練。
