PTE 聽力訓練快速入門

怎麼訓練聽力？

一個老掉牙的問題， 很多同學一聽到練聽力第一反應就是多聽，每天聽，天天泡在英文環境里所謂沉浸式學習。

那麼聽力分數一直提不上去到底因為什麼呢？

我一定是因為聽得少。

可是只是因為聽的少么? 當然不否認這是其中的一個理由。

然而同學們，聽力中最常被大家忽略的一件事其實是：

你最多只能 聽懂 你 讀得懂 的東西。

這句話什麼意思呢?

舉個栗子

VOA和BBC可能是最隨手可得也是普遍用來訓練聽力的資源了。

那麼，讓我們隨機抽取一段VOA的文本：

The U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry cited North Koreas recent submarine-launched ballistic missile test as the latest example of North Koreas continued pursuit of offensive and nuclear weapons in violation of United Nations Security Council resolutions. And he described Kim Jong Un as "grotesque and grisly" for reportedly ordering the public execution of his highest- ranking defense minister Hyon Yong Chol with an anti-aircraft gun.

"Which makes his leadership one of the most egregious examples of reckless disregard for human rights and human beings anywhere on the planet," Kerry noted. Pyongyang has grown increasingly isolated since it walked away from a 2005 deal with China, Japan, Russia, South Korea and the United States to end its nuclear program in return for economic aid and assistance.

那麼問題來了：

文章放在眼前，你讀懂這段聽力材料了嗎？中間碰到了多少生詞？如果是實際聽力的話有多少單詞可能會反應不過來？

如果這段材料你無法讀懂的話，那麼聽上100遍也沒用，該聽不懂的地方一定不會讓你聽懂的。

而這段聽力想要一遍就能完全聽懂，辭彙量起碼需要在 8000 到10000的水平。因此，在辭彙量不足的情況下，選擇這種聽力材料可以說就是浪費時間，完全起不到訓練的作用。

發現問題的所在了么，選擇聽力材料其實並不在於隨大流，而是根據本身的英文水平選擇適合的材料。

再具體一些，聽力材料的選擇主要取決於你的辭彙量水平。

讓我們來再看一段文本：

Massive corruption charges in the world of international soccer. U.S. prosecutors say some officials with FIFA, the group that governs soccer worldwide, have accepted more than $150 million in bribes over the past 24 years. American officials say bribes influence which countries got to host the World Cup, who could televise soccer games and where they`d be held.

They were expected to uphold the rules that keep soccer honest and to protect the integrity of the game. Instead, they corrupted the business of worldwide soccer to serve their interest and to enrich themselves. This Department of Justice is determined to end these practices, to root out corruption and to bring wrongdoers to justice.

是不是很友好？

不用查字典能理解文章大意的水平才是比較適合的聽力材料。
