中级口译听力

一听辨信息---how to get the meaning/information? 口译中的听并不是停留在语言层面,而是要听懂说话人大意思,并在听懂的基础上对信息的整体和细节有全面的把握, 同时能推断和预测说话人的意图,思路和目的. 1 听辨句子关键词 关键词是讲话者的强调对象和信息焦点.句子的关键词可以从词汇,句法,语意和语气四方面判断. 词汇层面上,名词,动词,形容词和代词等. 在句法侧面上,关键词可以是主语或宾语或表语. 如,the advantage of such a discussion is obvious 中advantage 是话题的基础I feel especially happy and honored to be here 中happy honor 是关键词。在语意层面,根据句子的新旧信息来判断,如now, let’s welcome the next speaker, Mr. 前半部分是主持套语,是已知信息,关注的是嘉宾的职位,名字等。在语气层面上,关键词是重点表达的词。如,我现在的心情可以说是既惶恐又高兴。惶恐又高兴是关键词。 口译基础LESSON 01. MP3(要求是能听辨句子关键词) 2 听辨句子主干结构 听辨句子的主干就是听辨句子中的关键词是如何组织起来的。方法包括词语顺序,经验模式和信息结构。 1)SVO结构即主谓宾结构。 2)对于被动句,形式主语句,PO 结构,就是participant参与者+ process过程如,it gives me a great pleasure to be here. 3)主位和述位主位是已知信息,述位是信息 口译基础LESSON 02. MP3(要求是能辨别句子主干) 3 听辨句子逻辑线索 掌握英语中常见的逻辑线索标识词是正确听辨逻辑线索的关键。 口译基础LESSON 03. MP3 (找出每句的逻辑线索词,并判断该举的逻辑关系) 4 借助语境推测词义 借助定语从句,同位语等推测;借助逻辑关系词推测;成对出现的意思相对的词;依据非语言环境,如讲话的主题,内容,顺序,语气等。 口译基础LESSON 04. MP3 (要求是能猜测各句中的难词,分别是:1 debilities 2 unilateral 3 heinous 4 pixel number 5 anthologies 6 Esperanto 7 subsidized housing 8 anintern 9 incompatible 10 biomechanics ) 听辨练习方法: 选择一些有声资料或请搭档模拟现场发言。听过后,在不记笔记的情况下用源语进行复述。复述时不要拘泥于原文语句,而是原文的意思和逻辑结构。 初级阶段可以就所听的内容提问的方式建立逻辑关系:如WHAT,WHO,WHEN,WHERE,HOW,WHY 等几个要素。 尽量选不同主题,不同口音的资料练习。 二怎样记忆信息—how to remember the information? 1 逻辑记忆一逻辑分层记忆 人的记忆有长时记忆和短时记忆。前者储存的是平时积累的各种知识经历,容量无限,记忆时间长。而后者只储存刚收到的信息,容量仅为7个左右的信息单位,,很容易配遗忘。口译记忆是长时记忆和短时记忆的结合。以短时记忆为主,结合长时记忆中被激活的部分。逻辑记忆就是对信息的点(具体的信息),线(各点之间的联系),和面(整体概念)进行全面的纵向的把握。 如从我国的旅游业的发展实践来看,旅游业完全有条件成为一个重要的经济产业。首先是我国具有发展旅游业的明显的资源优势。我国地域辽阔,历史悠久。灿烂的中华文化,秀美的山川。独特的景观,成为我国旅游业发展的十分重要的资源;二是我国具有进一步发展旅游业的广阔市场空间。随着改革开放的不断深入,我国国内旅游,入境旅游和出境旅游三大市场得到全面发展。 三是我国具有发展旅游业的坚实产业基础。旅游交通得到极大改善,住宿餐饮服务设施齐全,旅

上外中级口译第三版听力教程原文及讲解--Unit 10

Unit ten. Part one. We are surrounded by news. 2. Exercises. 1. This is a talk about the work of a journalist. Listen and supply the missing words you hear from the talk. Nowadays more than ever before we are surrounded by news. You can get the news on radio, on television, in newspapers, and on the internet. In fact so many new stories appear everyday that is impossible to keep up with them. And behind all of these stories there is a journalist. First of all there are different kinds of journalists like entertainment journalists, sports journalists, and crime journalists. And they all work hard to deliver the news 24 hours a day. So how exactly do they find and write stories? Let’s look at the work of one type of journalist, a city reporter. Sometimes journalists are called reporters because they report the news. So a city reporter is a person assigned to find and write stories about local news. How does the reporter do her work? Well, to begin with she should be in contact with lots of different organizations, the local police, and fire apartments, the offices of local politicians, and religious and civic organizations in the neighborhood. Once the reporter had a good relationship with th ese organizations she can call them to see what’s happening or they might call her to tell her about something that’s going on. There are two kinds of story she could write about. The first is a planned event for which the reporter can anticipate many of the details. For example, a politician could be opening a new department store. The second is an unplanned event. For example, a fire or a crime. Usually unplanned events are more exciting. 2. Listen to a talk about the types of news and then provide the missing information in the spaces given below. Let’s look at one kind of unplanned event, a crime. Imagine that a fight breaks up between 4 men in a neighborhood bar, and one of the men threatens another with a knife. The reporter will probably see a few lines about the crime in the police log. When she knows what happened she can go to the scene of the crime and interview people. The first person she will want to interview is a police officer. So that she can get the facts. There are four very important facts that every reader wants to know at the beginning of every story. One, what happened? Two, when did it happen? Three, where did it happen? And four, who was involved? Once the reporter has the basic facts of the story she can begin to interview

2014年9月中级口译真题答案:听力(Spot Dictation)

2014年9月中级口译真题答案:听力Spot Dictation 第一部分听力(Spot Dictation) SECTION 1: LISTENING TEST (45 minutes) Part A: Spot Dictation Direction:In this part of the test, you will hear a passage and read the same passage with blanks in it. Fill in each of the blanks with the words you have heard on the tape. Write your answer in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET. Remember you will hear the passage ONLY ONCE. 参考答案及解析 1.the special meaning 2.the individual words 3.more colorful 4.idiomatic expression 5.not related to 6.vividly described 7.several common theories 8.long ago in England 9.thatch-roofed houses 10.no wood underneath 11.get warm 12.other small animals

13.it became slippery 14.fall off the roof 15.down the streets 16.carry along 17.floating by 18.Northern European myth 19.as symbol for wind 20.a heavy rainstorm 【详细解析】 本文的主题是谚语及其渊源,主要介绍了“raining cats and dogs”(倾盆大雨)几种可能的起源。考生在听之前应该按课上要求的预览全文三分之二左右,了解主题和文章大意并对空格进行适当预测。 难词出现的不多,第4格的“idiomatic”可能会让有些考生措手不及,但若能够按照我们所教的处理方式,听时先纪录“idiom”并在右上角写上“a”的上标表示形容词性,便能从容应对,听完整理答案再写全“idiomatic”。第9格“thatch-roofed houses”是最难的,其中的“thatch”很多考生闻所未闻,但若能够事先预读过文章,便会发现此格正下方————下一行最后一个字即是“thatch”;或者听时先根据发音大致记个样子比如“sach”或“satch”,下文听见“thatch”再次出现,听完再补上,并根据语法写成“thatch-roofed”。第18格“Northern European myth”也有难度,前两个字就很长,最后一个很多考生一下子又反应不过来。其实,完全可以根据课上我们所讲的纪录地理方位的方式,写出Eu并在正上方画上一根横线,即表示了“北欧”。接着继续根据发音,大致写出“mis”,听完根据上下文猜出应该是北欧的“神话”——“myth”。 另外,有些同音异意词不能搞错。比如第14格“fall off the roof”中不能写“of”,第16格“carry along”中不能写“alone”,第17格“floating by”中不能写“buy”或“bye”,这些应该在整理答案时根据上下文进行纠正。

上外中级口译第三版听力教程原文及讲解--Unit 3

Unit 3. Part one. Crime and punishment. 2. Exercises. 1. Listen to someone talking about prison and then answer the following questions. About 7 out of 10 people released from prison end up in prison again sooner or later. A lot of people think this simply indicates that once a person becomes a criminal he will probably remain a criminal. But of course it doesn’t necessarily mean that at al l. On the contrary it could equally suggest that being in prison actually makes people more likely to commit crimes. After all prisons are full of criminals, and this means that someone going to prison for the first time is going to meet a lot more crimina ls than he’s met before, so he will probably learn a lot about crime during his stay there. The fact that so many people get rearrested also suggests that prisons aren’t doing enough to train people for jobs they can do when they get out. If they were given this training ex-prisoners wouldn’t need to turn to crime again to make a living. 2. Listen again and then supply the missing information in the following passage. Part 2. Statements. 2. Exercises. Listen and then choose the answer which is closest in meaning to each statement you hear. 1) After considering an interviewing a dozen or so of candidates, finally I have selected Mr. Stock to assume the position of company secretary. 2) In the office Tom likes people to let him have his own way, never allowing himself to be ordered about by someone else. 3) As I lived far away from the school and thought of buying a second hand car, I would have bought Sam’s car if I had known he was selling it. 4) I am not sure whether the whole class is going on the trip to Cambridge over the weekend, not everyone has paid the transportation fee. 5) John lives quite near here, and he told me that he would come early. I don’t understand why John hasn’t arrived yet. 6) The plane was due at 7:15, but it was delayed two and a half hours because of the bad weather in this area. 7) With the final exams being only 2 weeks away, Emily should have studied instead of going to the party on Saturday night. 8) After the tennis match Brown went to the locker room to take a shower and White who lives nearby went home. 9) My father has always supported what I am going to do. I have no idea why he objected so strongly to this plan of mine. 10) I am considering buying my own car and driving to work, but I don't get a study menu for my drivers test. I will have someone pick up one for me. 11) I heard that Peter was not in class today. What I want to know is if he still coming to my party tonight. 12) His topic was very interesting. And that’s why the attendance was great at first. Bu t he spoke so badly that everyone got up and left in the middle of his speech. 13) Our plane has been circling for a long time. I am told that the airport was closed for a while and the things still aren’t back to normal. 14) Although we arrived early the line was so long that there were no seats left when we

06.3中级口译听力原文

IIC Spot Dictation In the early 1970s, Citibank of New York City became one of the first financial institutions to install ATMs on a large scale. Since then, the popularity of Automated Teller Machines has increased dramatically. At the time, the bank hoped simply to reduce their operating costs by replacing human tellers with machines. Little did they suspect that the cash machines would become so successful. However, as more banks added round-the-clock automated service through ATMs, the machines mushroomed all over the world. To use an ATM, all you need is a plastic card issued by your bank. Your bank may also offer ATM service through a credit card, such as MasterCard or Visa. To begin a transaction, you need to insert the card into an ATM, and punch in a personal identification number on the machine?s keypad. The personal ID number may consist of four or six digits, and can prevent anyone from using the card. The ATM next flashes instructions on its display screen for carrying out transaction. To get cash, for example, you are instructed to press buttons that indicate …Whether the Money Should Be Withdrawn from a Checking or a Savings Account??, and …The Amount to be Withdrawn?. This request is then displayed on the screen. After you press a button to verify that the information is correct, the ATM goes to work on the request. How safe, you may ask, is banking by ATM? The personal ID number is meant to prevent anyone, no matter who you are, from using a cash card without authorization. If you enter the wrong ID number for a card, a message on the screen will ask you to try again. If you fail to produce the correct number for three times, most machines will keep the card. As another precaution against card theft, the bank generally limits the amount that may be withdrawn by cash card in a single day, say, to $200 . Statements: 1.Up to now, none of the candidates who applied for the position has the required credentials, we?d better let our ad in the Help-Wanted Section run for more weeks. 2.Originally Florence was only asked to make some introductory remarks, but she ended up giving a speech herself when the speaker came down with the flu. 3.You know what? I?ve got to finish that evaluation report for the board meeting next week. A 10-page report within the week! There goes my social life this weekend. 4.The director is kind of busy now and has no time to read over your proposal. How about dropping in tomorrow morning to see if I have something definite. 5.We don?t have enough information for our financial plan, but it is due tomorrow. So I?m afraid we?ll just have to make do with what we have got. 6.Americans use a variety of strategies to avoid silence. They keep on talking, especially during business negotiations. Because they think that silence makes a bad impression. 7.We have enjoyed a relationship with China for more than half a century. But I do not believe there has ever been a more exciting time to do business here. 8.I?ve already mentioned to the director about the signing of the agreement three times this month. Each time he said he was ready, but nothing happens. 9.We are a new and growing firm in the area. And we?re willing to do our best to attract customers away from our competitors with more favorable terms. https://www.360docs.net/doc/0019459099.html,pared to a meat-centered diet, meatless meals can easily supply all the essential
