1
Now turn to section 4 on page 7.
2
Section 4.
3
You will hear a university lecturer talking to his students about an architectural studies assignment.
4
First, you have some time to look at questions 31 to 40 on pages 7 and 8.
5
Thank you.
6
Now listen carefully and answer questions 31 to 40.
7
Okay, before this morning's lecture on successful design of public buildings, I want to draw your attention to your next assignment.
8
So, your assignment is on public monuments, and by that I mean any structure or statue that is built to remind us of important events or of historic figures.
9
The assignment should be divided into three sections.
10
At the beginning of section 1, you should identify the monument you're examining and say why you've chosen it.
11
Include a comment on whether you think the monument works.
12
By that I mean its success.
13
You may think it's wonderful.
14
You may think it's a public eyesore, something that people hate looking at.
15
Next, you should also include in this first section information about where the monument was built,
16
its geographical site, and also a discussion of its social importance, how relevant it was for the people of the time.
17
You should also include information on when it was built, its historical background, and make sure you illustrate the assignment appropriately too.
18
I shall expect that.
19
Insert any plans you can find and make sure any photographs you use have captions
20
and are clearly referred to in the text or they will be meaningless.
21
To end this section, you should include something about the record of the person who designed the monument, showing how the monument relates to his or her other work.
22
Right, in section 2 of the assignment, you'll need to give a detailed account of the design and construction of the monument.
23
Firstly, I'll want to read about any particular influence you think is apparent in the design.
24
More often than not, there will be something in it that links it to an established style.
25
Classical Greek, for example.
26
or it may reflect a movement like Bauhaus or Art Nouveau.
27
You decide.
28
Secondly, I want information about the choice of materials, not only those which were used, but reasons why they may have been selected from others
29
that were available at the time and in the area where the designer worked.
30
Next, I'll want to mention of any particular skills that were necessary in the construction too.
31
The third section is the most important one.
32
Here you'll go into much more critical detail.
33
To add to your own comments, you'll need to carry out a survey for this section to be as comprehensive and rounded as possible.
34
Ask yourself and others the following questions.
35
Firstly, was the reason for erecting the monument a valid one?
36
For example, was it one that ordinary members of the public, the man or woman on the street, can readily relate to, and did it justify how much public money it cost?
37
Was it a waste, or does it represent a sound cultural investment?
38
Then, think about its emotional impact.
39
When someone looks at it, How do they feel?
40
Angry?
41
Sad?
42
Indifferent?
43
And don't forget to consider how well the monument sits in its environment.
44
Does it harmonize with it, or does it clash with it?
45
And is that important?
46
Does it add to the effect, or take away from it?
47
Right, those guidelines should help.
48
Oh, and remember, it is important to weigh up carefully how to make the maximum impact in this kind of critique
49
within the number of words allowable.
50
You don't get extra marks for lots of factual information.
51
You get those for a well-constructed analysis.
52
That's what counts, and that needs to be based on your personal opinion.
53
That is the end of Section 4.
54
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
55
Thank you.
56
Transfer your answers to the Listening Answer Sheet.
57
Thank you.
58
Thank you.
59
Thank you.
60
Thank you.
61
Thank you.

需要注意的发音

说话人用了 9 次缩略和弱读形式,例如 you'll, don't, I'll。请按听到的简短形式来说。

  • “sh” 和 “zh” 音: caption /ˈkæp.ʃən/, clash /ˈklæʃ/
  • 长单词——注意重音位置: allowable /əˈlaʊ.əbəl/, architectural /ˌɑɹkɪˈtɛkt͡ʃəɹəl/

中文母语者容易读错的音:

  • 词尾辅音 — 要读清楚,后面不要加元音: monument /ˈmɑnjʊmənt/, harmonize /ˈhɑɹ.mə.naɪz/, indifferent /ɪnˈdɪf.ɹənt/, erect /ɪˈɹɛkt/, meaningless /ˈmiː.nɪŋ.ləs/

  • /æ/ — 嘴张大,不要读成 /e/: factual /ˈfæk.tʃ(u)əl/, caption /ˈkæp.ʃən/, geographical /d͡ʒiəˈɡɹæfɪkl̩/, clash /ˈklæʃ/, statue /ˈstæt͡ʃu/

如何用这段视频练习

  1. 先完整听一遍视频,不要开口,记下不认识的单词。
  2. 用正常速度逐句跟读,每句重复到你的节奏与说话人一致为止。
  3. 录下自己的声音并与原声对比,特别注意 monument, firstly, eyesore 这类单词。

什么是跟读法?

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
