二、解題思路

經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)和心理學(xué)類似，主要按照托福聽力文章最常見的行文思路，即術(shù)語解釋加例子來例證主旨，所以通過前面積累的筆記法可以對(duì)此類文章進(jìn)行把握。

三、例題分析

TPO 6 Lecture 1 Economics

文章分析：

主題： 運(yùn)用了第三種結(jié)構(gòu) （用熟悉的事件引出主題）

教授講了一些關(guān)于 現(xiàn)在dot crash 的事件。當(dāng)然這個(gè)事件引出 boom and bust.然后呈現(xiàn)的是大家對(duì)這個(gè)事件的想法和觀點(diǎn) 原文：You’d think that by the 90s, people would have learned from the past. If they did, well, look at tulips.

細(xì)節(jié)題：之后文中回到18世紀(jì)的時(shí)間有關(guān)tulips。文中可以很明顯的聽到教授在介紹tulips其中包括他的生活棲息地，里面運(yùn)用了大家普遍的錯(cuò)誤認(rèn)知，然后再進(jìn)行糾正。這個(gè)也是在動(dòng)植物學(xué)比較容易考的點(diǎn)

譯文：Student

Tulips? You mean like the flower?

Professor

Exactly. For instance, do you have any idea where tulips are from? Originally I mean.

Student

Well, the Netherlands, right?

Professor

That’s what most people think, but no. They are not native to the Netherlands, or even Europe. Tulips actually hail from an area that Chinese call the Celestial Mountains in Central Asia. A very remote mountainous region. It was Turkish nomads who first discovered tulips and spread them slowly westward.

后續(xù)：文章有穿插了其背景知識(shí)-當(dāng)然講座也把這個(gè)知識(shí)點(diǎn)當(dāng)做一個(gè)考點(diǎn)。人們對(duì)TULIPS的看法

譯文：

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.

接下來 文中提到3個(gè)原因說明經(jīng)濟(jì)為什么會(huì)增長(zhǎng)，這題也是全文的難點(diǎn)，在聽的過程中要聽到3個(gè)理由，其中會(huì)有很明顯的提示詞:

第一個(gè)理由: 用not only…but also

第二個(gè)理由： 用 plus

第三個(gè)理由：用 finally

筆記的過程中只需記到后面的關(guān)鍵詞匯即可，因?yàn)楹竺孢\(yùn)用了大量解釋，解釋的作用就是讓文章更加容易懂。

之后當(dāng)BOOM的3個(gè)理由達(dá)成后，接下來就要講訴bust 的原因。

其手法和事前的boom 是一樣的。

文章的難點(diǎn)就是在提出了出現(xiàn)了選3個(gè)答案，和2個(gè)答案。

Describe a useful website that you visited

You should say:

What it is

What the contents of the websites are

How often you go to this website

How this website helps you

Speaking of a useful website I visited, I’d like to describe a health Q&A website which was established by my university. As we known, not all the university has its official health website, but the university authority claimed that recently the health center had become overcrowded and there was a university located in another city, faced a similar situation a few years ago, and what they did was to established an internet question website, as a result, few students visited their healthy center. Therefore my university wanted to follow the action and immediately built the internet question website.

The website is well-written and well-design, the main function of the website is providing answers to common medical questions posted by students, and also there is always some medical information and health articles updated by the website, students can even make appointments with the healthy center doctors via the website

I occasionally visit the website to ask health questions and sometimes make an appointment with the school doctor and the website really helpful and informative

Firstly, it’s very convenient, when I felt sick, I just posted questions online and the website would offer me the feedbacks, so I didn’t need to go to health center and wait for a line, you know, it was very troublesome to visit school healthy center, because the numbers of students increased year by year, but the doctors in healthy center has maintained the same. So the website solved the problem

Secondly, there are many health articles and information updated by the website, for example, like “Rise in pets as therapy” Or “is honey
