托??谡ZTask3、Task4實例賞析

字號:

廣大托友們都知道IBT口語的Integrated speaking部分又可以細分為Listening-Reading-Speaking類型和Listening-Speaking類型。其中Task3和Task4是屬于Listening-Reading-Speaking類型,我今天拿來客戶的兩道Task3、Task4實例和大家一起分析一下,幫助大家一起面對并且解決Task3、Task4中常出現(xiàn)的問題!
    Task3、Task4常見問題:
    1、人稱的錯誤使用。
    2、過渡詞或者信號詞的缺乏,使得整個陳述聽起來沒有層次不明顯,在一定程度上影響了整體表達效果。
    3、很大程度上照搬聽力材料中的原話!
    實例1
    Western university announces a new course in the practice of professional tutoring. The course combines a discussion class with practical experience in either the Math Center or the Writing Center. In the discussion class, students will explore tutoring theories, examine the role of the peer tutor, and develop effective tutoring practices. In their practical experience, students will observe peer tutoring and advance to supervised tutoring. Students who are considering graduate school in related fields will benefit from this course. Enrollment is limited to 40 and requires the signature of an academic adviser.
    I think the new course in practice professional tutoring is good for students who are considering graduate school. Firstly, the course combines discussion class with practical experience. Moreover, the students can learn how to teach and learn some practical theories about teaching and learning in the course. However, some universities don’t give teaching assistants much training. They just expect the teaching assistants know how to do it. So this course might be really useful for the teachers. And it might give you skills that could be useful later.
    解析
    1、人稱的錯誤使用。Task3、Task4的題目要求通常如下:The woman/ man expresses her/ his opinion about something. State her/ his opinion and explain the reasons she/ he gives for holding that opinion.很多托友在對Task3、Task4的陳述中使用了第一人稱而非題目要求的第三人稱。這個問題可大可小,因為這直接關(guān)系到你有沒有正確讀懂題目要求的關(guān)鍵問題,所以大家一定要提高警覺了。
    2、W: So this course might be really useful for the teachers.
    R: So this course might be really useful for the students who want to the teaching assistant.
    說明:這位托友對這句話的表達存在偷換概念的嫌疑,因為無論從閱讀材料中還是聽力材料中都可以聽出Training course for tutors是針對畢業(yè)后想從事teaching assistant而開設(shè)的,所以這位女士才向其推薦。
    (3) W: And it might give you skills that could be useful later.
    R: And it will give them skills that could be useful later.
    說明:人稱的使用誤差是這篇陳述的主要問題,因為使用了不同的人稱后所傳遞的不同信息是大相徑庭的!
    (4)過渡詞的嚴重缺乏。過渡詞無論在口語表達中還是寫作中都起到至關(guān)重要的作用,套用一句廣告詞:地球人都知道!稍微有點夸張!Signal Words就象指明燈一些會帶領(lǐng)著聽者跟著你的思路走,把握你說話的重點!這段陳述中則沒有使用過渡詞,所以我在上面的Sample answer加入一些Signal Words,并且用黑色字體標出。
