托福聽力主旨題套路：如何聽懂國外課堂老師教授的課程

    　托福聽力考試中個題目便是反復考核大家對于文章主旨的認知，因此我們才把此類題目稱為主旨題，下面我們就重點來看看。

　　國外院校老師在她每次上課前，都會反復的強調：

　　Today's lecture is about

　　Today's lecture is the lecture about

　　What I like to do is to

　　What I want to talk about in today's lecture is

　　The topic of today's lecture as you can see from the title is

　　其實這些內容也是我們中文老師上課前時常會跟大家強調的，大家是否覺得此類句子后面跟的便是今天課上的內容呢?是的，這就是我們要給大家講授的主旨題。只要你明白了主旨題，你就會清晰老師考核了什么，這篇聽力的內容是什么，其他部分都遵循主旨，做題速度就會很快。

　　題目問法：

　　What is the lecture mainly about?

　　What is the main idea of the lecture?

　　What does the professor mainly discuss?

　　信號詞：

　　Today we will talk about/ discuss

　　Today we will look at / tell..

　　Now I want to talk about is...

　　The topic today is …

　　I want to begin today by

　　聽力筆記重點：

　　關注信號詞之后的內容，留意同意轉換

　　我把主旨題的方法論梳理為三字口訣：定，判，轉

　　內容主旨三步走

　　1.定(出題位置)在開頭

　　2.判(信號詞)出現開始認真聽

　　3.轉(同義表達)記筆記

　　下面我們先來查看道主旨題

　　12. What is the lecture mainly about? (TPO17 L4)

　　A. Different kinds of color vision in sea animals.

　　B. Differences in appearance between various species of octopus.

　　C. Ways that octopuses attract their prey.

　　D. Ways that octopuses protect themselves from predators.

　　聽力文本：

　　Ok，now I want to talk about an animal that has a fascinating set of defense mechanisms.And that’s the octopus, one of the unusual creatures that live in the sea.The octopus is prey to many species, including humans, so how does it escape its predators?

　　定：Listen to the part of lecture in a biology class

　　聽到這句話便明白是在文章的最開頭

　　判：now I want to talk about

　　轉：an animal that has a fascinating set of defense mechanisms

　　遵循之前給大家講述的三段論進行分類之后，可以很明顯的把信號詞后面的主旨找出來，同義轉化一下defense和protect就好了。

　　那下面我們再來看一道練習題

　　6.What aspect creative writing does the professor mainly discussz?(TPO6 L3)

　　A.How to keep a reader’s interest

　　B.How to create characters

　　C.Key differences between major and minor characters

　　D.Techniques for developing short-story plots

　　聽力文本：

　　Alright everybody, the topic for today is, well, we’re gonna take a look at how to start creating the characters for the stories you’re writing.One way of doing that is to come up with what’s called “a character sketch”, I don’t mean a sketch like a drawing, I guess that’s obvious.It’s um…it’s a…a sketch is a way of getting started on defining your characters’ personalities.To begin, how do we create fictional characters?

　　定：Listen to the part of lecture in a creative class

　　這是一堂寫作課

　　判：The topic for today is，We’re goanna to take a look at

　　轉：How to start creating the characters

　　以上便是托福聽力主旨題核心內容闡釋，整體而言此題目為所有題型中最簡單的，大家答題時切記小心謹慎，此題目是不允許出錯的。
