小编整理的内容是针对听力中Lecture题型的笔记方法,这样可以让我们在听力考试中,能够更好的答题。
应该没有人会否认,Lecture比Conversation难听懂。但我觉得,Lecture其实比Conversation好拿分。原因有二:
第一,因为Conversation里边的表达过于口语化,有时会利用语气的转变或Well之类的词来暗示说话人想要表达的意思。在重听题中,极易由于未能理解说话人的真正意图而选错。
第二,因为Conversation的文章结构特点不鲜明,文章的展开方式比较随意。有时会在针对主题之外的内容天南海北一通扯,搞得你都不知道学生的来意了。所以,第一道主旨题很容易选错。2、Lecture不易听懂但出题点明确。尽管Lecture内容相对专业,但只要能找到出题点,就不妨碍做题。且Lecture文章结构特点鲜明,不同学科出题方向明确,答案也明确。简而言之就是:Conversation须靠理解拿分,Lecture能靠技巧拿分。
话不多说,直奔主题。采用举例说明法,来谈谈TPO 19 Lecture 4的出题点和解题方法吧。
为什么选这篇?因为本文是Art history的文章,是TPO中最常考到的科目类型(TPO共96篇文章中,19篇关于History,其中10篇都是Art History),并且文章难度中等,便于入手学习。
上原文!
TPO 19 Lecture 4 Art History(Cecilia Beaux)
Narrator: Listen to part of a discussion in an art history (学科分类,提示文章信息)class.
Professor: All right, let’s continue our discussion of portrait artists(portraitist) and portraiture. Who remembers any of the important points we made last time? Sandra?(教授的提问,学生的回答不记,但需听懂,因为关乎教授的评述)
Student: Well, artists have done portraits of people for centuries, of famous people and regular people, and most(最高级,强调) portraits convey the artists’ personal vision, like their feelings and insights about a person.
Professor: Great,(肯定学生的回答,会做出进一步评述) that’s a crucial point(强调), and I’d like to explore that a little today(今天讲什么,主旨题). A great example(举例,笔记写“e”,不记细节,记核心,举例为了说明什么)of that(学生的回答,如果不听懂学生的回答,就不能理解that是指的什么了), that vision in portraiture, is Cecilia Beaux(重读+停顿+图片中的词,必须记录下来,并且了解其含义). Cecilia Beaux was born in 1854, and after learning to paint and studying with several important artists of the time, Beaux became known as one of the best(最高级,强调) portrait painters in the United States. She was very successful. She even(比较,强调) had portraits of the wife and children of Theodore Roosevelt, while he was president. (第2题依据)Some did not get much more prestige than that. Now,(now意味着谈下一话题,几乎每一次出现now都划分段落) those portraits also reflect the kind of subjects that Beaux tended to use, which were mostly women and children. For example, in her first major work, her subjects were ..., the painting featured her sister and her nephew. Yes, Mark?(学生的提问,提问的内容不记,但需听懂,因为关乎教授的回答)
Student: Yeah, it just seems interesting. I was wondering if that was unusual to have a portrait artist who is a woman become so well-known and successful in the 19th century.
Professor: Great question. Yeah, she really stood out back in the 1800s. And today, she is still considered one of the greatest(最高级,强调)portrait painters of her time, male or female.(再次强调C.B.的成就)In fact(事实上,as a matter of fact, actually之类的都是重点,这跟Conversation 一样), she was the first(序数词,强调)full-time female instructor at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, and she was a full member of the National Academy of Design. These are pretty important(强调) institutions, so, yeah, she definitely(强调)made headway for women artists.
OK, so let’s look at one of her portraits now, this painting is called(called之后的词表达的含义和具体内容必考)The Dreamer. It is one of my favorites. And I think it is especially characteristic of Beaux’s work. So what you see here is a portrait of a close friend of Cecilia Beaux. So tell me what’s the first thing that draws you to this painting? What catches your eye first? (教授的提问)
Student: Well, for me, it is her face and hands, I think they are really expressive, and also, they make the woman seem very contemplative, seems like she is thinking pretty seriously about something.
Student: Yeah, her eyes kind of draw you in. But(转折,后边的内容更重要)what strikes me is the contrasting colors, the white dress and the dark background. It kind of reminds me of that painting we discussed a few weeks ago, by ...eh... John Singer Sargent.(人名,尽量拼出来) I think it was called MadameX?
Professor: I agree, good point.(充分肯定学生的回答,会补充评述,会考)Yes, Beaux had high regard for Sargent’s work.(第3题依据) And this is something, a technique you will find in both of their work. OK, but(转折)the painting is called The Dreamer. What do you see is dreamlike about it?(教授的提问)
Student: Well, the background behind the woman is pretty vague. Like, maybe there is no real context, like no definite surroundings, especially compared to the woman herself, since she is so clear and well-defined.
Professor: Yes,(肯定学生的回答) the unclear background definitely(强调) contributes to that dreaminess.(第4题依据) It is meant to show a sense of isolation I think. With the woman is deep in a daydream and not really aware of anything eale. This painting shows how insightful(重读) Cecilia Beaux was as a portrait artist. Besides(有besides,则这部分不重要) her excellent technical skills, like her use of brush strokes and color to make an impression, both respectives come through. Her portraits reveal her own interpretation of her subject’s state of mind. This is what it is all about, not just likenesses.(第5题依据)
Now, (看进度条,讲座快结束了,最后一段,必有考点,认真听)the undefined background also shows how Cecilia Beaux was influenced by the French Impressionists, who believed, like Beaux, in a personal rather than conventional approach to their subject matter.(第6题依据) Beaux used some impressionist techniques and share much of their philosophy, but her style, it was all her own.
