Part III Listening Comprehension

Section C

Students have been complaining more and more about stolen property. Radios, cell phones, bicycles, pocket calculators and books have all been reported stolen. Are there enough campus police to do the job? There are 20 offices in the campus security division. Their job is to handle crime, accidents, lost and found items, and traffic problems on campus. More than half of their time is spent directing traffic and writing parking tickets. Responding promptly to accidents and other emergencies is important, but it is their smallest job. Dealing with crime takes up the rest of their time. Very rarely did any violent crimes actually occur.

In the last five years there have been no murders, seven robberies, and about sixty other violent attacks, most of these involving fights at parties. On the other hand, there have been hundreds of thefts and cases of deliberate damaging of public property, which usually involves breaking windows or lights, or writing on walls. The thefts are not the carefully planned burglaries that you see in movies. Things get stolen when it is just easy to steal them because they are left lying around unwatched. Do we really need more police?Hiring more campus police would cost money, possibly making our tuition go up again. A better way to solve this problem might be for all of us to be more careful with our things.

淺析:試題中的聽力理解部分歷來是很多學(xué)生的薄弱環(huán)節(jié),復(fù)合式聽寫,更是讓很多同學(xué)頭痛,今年四級考試復(fù)合式聽考查的是一篇關(guān)于stolen property on campus(校園偷竊)的話題。從文章內(nèi)容來看,要完全聽懂,不是一件容易的事。其中,含有一些復(fù)雜的句式結(jié)構(gòu),較之短對話和長對話,在難度上增加了許多。在做此部分時,很多同學(xué)面臨這樣一個問題:要么是聽不懂,要么是聽懂了寫不出來,要么是寫出來卻寫不準確。針對這種情況,針對這種情況,希望同學(xué)牢記這么一個原則:用最簡單、最少的單詞,寫出最完整的含義。

另外,有的放矢的根據(jù)自己的能力進行取舍,不要糾結(jié)于個別單詞或者句子。首先對文章得有一個大致的了解,把握篇章大意。認真看文字材料,重點在空格部分,力爭聽懂空格處是一個短語還是一個句子,用自己熟悉的符號來做標(biāo)記,在重新聽時注意認真核實。
