Does that make sense?Student：Yeah,I think so.You are looking for my point of view.Professor：That’s right.The mid-term exam showed me that you know all the details of who,where and when.For this test,I want to see how you can put it all together to show some original thinking.Student：That’s sounds pretty challenging,especially trying to work it into this trip. But,yeah,I think I can do it.Professor：I’m sure you can.Student：Thank you,Professor Bronson.Professor：Have a great time in Montreal.《对话》教授：杰夫，我很高兴你过来了。
看这里!16年4月9日托福考试听力共享
看这里!16年4月9日托福考试听力共享不知道备战托福听力的考生，是否知道2016年4月9日这一天的新托福听力考试考了什么呢?在今天的文章中，天道小编特意为同学们准备了9日这一天的托福听力真题。
倘若您对这一天的听力内容还不甚了解的话，相信之后的文章一定可以帮到你!2016年4月9日的托福听力考试结束了，天道小编特意整理了这一天的托福听力真题，正在备考新的同学们赶紧来瞧瞧吧!提前预祝考生们能够在新托福听力考试中取得满意成绩!Conversation1这一篇听力在学生与学校工作人员之间展开。
学生去中作中心询问跟工作有关的问题，工作人员告诉他说中心只提供全职工作，如果学生想要寻找兼职工作的话，他需要前往另外一个地方。
学生回答说他要找的就是全职工作。
他现在在咖啡馆工作，一周只能工作十五个小时。
所以询问如果找暑期的工作，是不是只限制于应届毕业生。
工作人员回答说不是。
每一年很多公司都会来招聘暑假需要全职工作的学生，也招没有毕业的实习生。
问题是大多数学生都已经回家了。
最后工作人员询问学生是什么专业的，学生回答说是生物专业。
因此工作人员推荐他两个工作机会，一个在动物园，另外一个是儿童医院。
学生临走前希望知道工作可不可以换取学分，工作人员说不一定，需要和具体部门联系。
Lecture1 这一篇听力是有关于物理学的。
教授介绍的是有关于电磁波和另外一种光波。
因为光电二相性，在光产生的同时，也会产生其他能量的输出，比如说热量的产生。
没有方法可以单纯的产生光。
电磁波，就是产生光的一种来源，但同时也会产生热量。
但是另外一种光波，通过稀有气体的化学反应来释放光源，期间基本不产生热量，至少没有可以测量到的热量。
问题是这种稀有气体有毒，对人体有害，因此没有得到广泛的使用。
最后，教授提到了说不定在一定时间的研究后，这个方向的研究会有积极的进展。
Lecture2这一篇听力讲的是文学。
教授主要讲的是一种罕见的文学写作形式的发展，并且列举了两位作家作为例子来进行阐述。

TPO 16 Lecture 1 geologyNarrator: Listen to a part of lecture in a geology class.Professor: Now there are some pretty interesting caves in parts of thewestern United States, especially in national parks. There is one part that hasover a hundred caves, including some of the largest ones in the world. One ofthe more interesting ones is called Lechuguilla Cave. Lechuguilla has beenexplored a lot in recent decades. It’s a pretty exciting place I think. It wasmentioned only briefly in your books. So can anyone remember what it said?Ellen?Male Student: It’s the deepest limestone cave in the U.S.?Professor: That’s right. It’s one of the longest and deepest limestone cavesnot just in the country but in the world. Now, what else?Male Student: Well, it was formed because of sulfuric acid, right?Professor: That’s it. Yeah, what happens is you have deep underground oildeposits and there are bacteria. Here let me draw a diagram.Part of the limestone rock layer is permeated by water from below. Thosecurly lines are supposed to be cracks in the rock. Below the water table androck is oil. Bacteria feed on this oil and release hydrogen sulfide gas. Thisgas is hydrogen sulfide, rises up and mixes with oxygen in the underground waterthat sits in the cracks and fissures in the limestone. And when hydrogen sulfide reacts with the oxygen in the water, the result of that is sulfuric acid, Ok? Sulfuric acid eats away at limestone very aggressively. So you get bigger cracks and then passageways being formed along the openings in the rock and it’s all underground. Ah yes, Paul?Male Student: So that water... It’s not flowing, right? It’s still? Professor: Yes, so there’s two kinds of limestone caves. In about 90 percent of them, you have water from the surface, streams, waterfall or whatever - moving water that flows through cracks found in the limestone. It’s the moving water itself that wears away at the rock and makes passageways.Also, in surface water, there is a weak acid, carbonic acid, not sulfuric acid, but carbonic acid that helps dissolve the rock. With a little help from this carbonic acid, moving water forms most of the world’s limestone caves. When I was researching this for a study a few years ago, I visited a couple of these typical limestone caves, and they were all very wet, you know, from streams and rivers. This flowing water carved out the caves and the structures inside them.Male Student: But not Lechuguilla?Professor: Dry as a bone. Well, that might be a bit of an exaggeration. But it’s safe to say that it’s sulfuric acid and not moving water that formed Lechuguilla cave and those few other ones like it. In fact, there is no evidencethat flowing water has even gone in or out of the cave. So, it’s like a maze.You have passageways all around. There are wide passages, narrow ones at all different depths, like underground tunnels in the limestone. And, since they were created underground and not from flowing surface water, not all these passageways have an opening to the outside world.And.. .and there is other evidence that flowing water wasn’t involved in Lechuguilla. We’ve said that sulfuric acid dissolves limestone, right, and forms the passageways? What else does sulfuric acid do? Paul?Male Student: Ah, leaves a chemical residue ... um...Female Student: Gypsum, right?Professor: Yep, you’ll find lots of gypsum deposited at Lechuguilla. And, as we know, gypsum is soluble in water. So if there were flowing water in the cave, it would dissolve the gypsum. This is part of what led us to the realization that Lechuguilla is in that small group of waterless caves.And Lechuguilla is pretty much dormant now. It’s not really forming any more.But, there is other ones like it, for example, in Mexico, that are forming. And when cave researchers go to explore them, they see and smell, the sulfuric acidand gases of...er...phew...now, something else, think of rotten eggs. And, it’snot just the smell. Explorers even need to wear special masks to protect themselves from the gases in these caves. OK? Paul.Male Student: Yeah, how about what these caves look like on the inside?Professor: Well, the formations.. .there is really something. There’s such variety there, like nothing anywhere else in the world, some of them are elaborate looking, like decorations. And a lot of them are made of gypsum and could be up to 20 feet long. It’s pretty impressive.。
2016年1月9日托福听力答案解析
Conversation 1 学⽣找⽼师先说了⽼师在上布置的reading, ⽼师说reading都可以在上查到啊，他就说他想问的是他的⽂章能不能publish。
(主旨题) ⽼师说，不是所有的⽂章都能被出版的，他们会找被revise(有题) 完了之后这学⽣不乐意了，审查可以啊，他觉得他写挺好的，不过吧最近读了上的reading，感觉可以加进去⼀些其他的elements。
(也就是准备写点⼉别的了，说了某个主题，提到他grandpa。
) ⽼师就说这个题啊，xxx也研究了这个题，发了⽂。
(有题，问提这个学⽣⼲嘛。
选项有A跟他说有⼈选了此题建议换题⽇⿎励这个字⽣发表⾃⼰的意见C提醒他有竞争对⼿D挫败他。
) 然后⽼师就说了，你可以找你grandparent，他在社区⼯作过，⽐较了解传统诗歌和现代诗歌的差异，你聊了以后⽐较有话说。
然后⽼师提醒他，你要注惹分析诗歌的语⾔，他们的韵律，毕竟诗歌是⼀种repetition.(有题， 问⽼师让他注意哪些⽅⾯吧) Lecture 1 关于舞台布景艺术。
(语速较快) 教授说了19世纪到20世纪美国和欧洲戏院布景的变化。
(主旨题)⾸先说了在19世纪上半继续18世纪残存的写实考古之风。
在布景和服装⽅⾯表现了对历史真实的追求。
总的来说⼒求realism。
实现对历史的真实还原。
似乎提到了镜像布置舞台?什么这边⼀个东西，相同的位置在那边就要有⼀个之类的。
为满⾜成批⽣产“值班布景”的需要，19世纪下半为满⾜成批⽣产“值班布景"的需要，19世纪下半叶，批量⽣产的布景体积笨重，牢固耐⽤，讲究制作⼯艺，但风格不统⼀。
(有题，问boxing怎么了)⽽且，有⼀点，⾮常cost money。
不过教授态度似乎是natural is more important。
有题，问教授对于昂贵的布景的看法。
后来⾃然主义兴起，⼒求布录筒单明了，还出现⼦恢复莎⼠⽐亚戏剧原貌、不⽤布景演出的实验。
对舞台要简单、概并主张突出演员。

TPO16Conversation1Student：Hi.I’m Melanie,the one who’s been calling.Manager：From the singing group,right?Student：From the choir.Manager：Right,the choir.It’s nice to finally meet you in person.So,you are having problems with...Student：Noise.Like I explained on the phone we’ve always had our rehearsals in the Lincoln Auditorium every day at3o’clock and it’s always worked just great.But the past few weeks with the noise,it’s been a total nightmare since constructions started next door on the science hall.Manager：Oh,that’s right.They’re building that addition for new laboratories.Student：Exactly.Anyway,ever since they started working on it,it’s been so noisy we can barely hear ourselves sing.Manager：Let alone sing.Student：Forget about singing.I mean,we keep the windows down and everything,but once those bulldozers get going,I mean those machines are loud.We’ve already had to cut short two rehearsals and we’ve got a concert in6weeks.Manager：Well,that’s not good.I’m assuming you’ve tried to reschedule your rehearsals.They d on’t do construction work at night.Student：I ran that by the group,but there were just too many.I mean evenings are really hard.It seems like everyone in the choir already has plans and some even have classes at night.Manager：And what about the music building?Student：You know,originally we were booked in one of the rehearsal rooms in the music building,but then we switched with the jazz ensemble.They’re a much smaller group and they said the acoustics,the sound in that room,was better for them.So having us moved to a bigger space like the Lincoln Auditorium seemed like a reasonable idea.Manager：But now...Student：All that noise.I don’t know.I just wonder if the jazz ensemble knew what was going to happen.Manager：Well,that wouldn’t be very nice.Student：No.But it really was quite a coincidence.Anyway,now the music building’s fully booked,mornings,afternoons,everything,we just need a quiet space.And it has to have a piano.Manager：A piano.Of course some of the other auditoriums have pianos,but that’s not g oing to be easy.Student：You think they’re pretty booked up?Manager：Probably.But it can’t hurt to check.What about Bradford Hall?I remember a piano in the old Student center there.Student：At this point,we’d be grateful for any quiet place.Manager：Can you...How flexible can you be on times?You said no evenings,but what ill(if)can’t find something open at3o’clock?Can you move earlier or later?Student：I wish I could say another time would be okay,but you know how it is, everybody’s already got commitments for the whole semester2:30or3:30would probably be okay,but Idon’t think we could go much outside thatManager：Well,check with me tomorrow morning.I should’ve found something by then.It might not be ideal...Student：As long as it’s got a piano and nobody’s putting up a building next door,we’ll be happy.《对话》学生：你好!我是梅兰尼，刚才我已经电话联系过了。

I’ve been meaning to congratulate you won the class leadership award. Man: Thanks, Professor Brownson. I was really happy to get it and a little surprised. I mean, there were so many other people nominated. Woman: Well, I know the award was well deserved. Now, what can I do for you today? Man: I needed to talk to you about the medieval history test. You know, the one scheduled for Friday afternoon? Woman: Yes? Man: Well, there’s this trip that my French class is taking, we’re going to Montreal for the weekend. Woman: Montreal! That’s my favorite city. What will you be seeing there? Man: Uh, I’m not sure yet. Well, the reason, the main reason I wanted to go, is that we’ll be rooming with French-speaking students there. You know, so we can get a chance to use our French to actually talk to real French speakers. Woman: It sounds like a great opportunity. But, then, there’s that test. Man: Yeah, but, well, the thing is the bus leaves right in the middle of when our history class meets this Friday. So, well, I was thinking maybe I could take the test on a different day, like, Monday morning during your office hours? Woman: Uh, Monday morning. Um, that would not be, oh wait, let me just see one thing. Uh ha, OK, that’s what I thought. So, for your class, I was planning a take-home exam. So, you could just take the test along with you, uh, let’s see, I guess you could come to class Friday just to pick up the test, that way you’ll still make your bus, and then find some quiet time during your trip to complete it, and you can bring it to class Wednesday when I’ll be collecting everyone else’s. Man: Hum, uh, during the trip, well, I guess I could, so I should plan to take my books and stuff with me. Woman: You’ll definitely need your class notes. I’m giving you some short essay questions to make you think critically about the points we discussed in class. Just state, uh, state and defend your opinion, analyze the issues, speculate about how things might have turned out differently. So, you see, I don’t care if you look up dates and that kind of things, what I want is for you to synthesize information, to reflect back on what we’ve read and discussed, and to form your own ideas, not just to repeat points from the textbook. Does that make sense? Man: Yeah, I think so. You’re looking for my point of view. Woman: That’s right. The mid-term exam showed me that you know all the details of who, where and when. For this test, I want to see how you can put it all together, to show some original thinking. Man: That sounds pretty challenging, especially trying to work it into this trip, but, yeah, I think I can do it. Woman: I’m sure you can. Man: Thank you, Professor Brownson. Woman: Have a great time in Montreal. 托福TPO16听力Conversation2题目 1.Why does the student go to see the professor A. To find out his grade on the midterm exam. B. To explain why he missed a class. C.

TPO17Conversation1Professor：OK,let’s see.Right,Modern Stagings of a Shakespearian Classic.Well,like I told you last week,I think that’s a great topic for you paper.So the title would be something like...uh...Student：I am not really sure,probably something like20th century stagings of A Midsummer Night’s Dream.Professor：Yes,I like that.Straightforward and to the point.So how is the research going?Student：Well,that’s what I came to talk to you about.I was wondering if you happen to have a copy of the Peter Brook production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream in your video collection.I’ve been looking for it everywhere and I am having a really hard time tracking it down.Professor：That’s because it doesn’t exist.Student：You mean in your collection?Or at all?Professor：I mean at all.That particular production was never filmed or recorded.Student：Oh no.I had no idea.From what I read,that production,like,it influenced every other production of the play that came after it.So I just assumed it had been filmed or videotaped.Professor：Oh,It definitely was a landmark production.Andit’s not like it ran for just a week,but either it was never filmed or if it was the film’s been lost.And it’s ironic because there’s even a film about the making of the production,but none of the production itself.Student：So now what do I do?If there is no video.Professor：Well,think about it.This is the most important20th century staging of A Midsummer Night’s Dream,right?Student：But how can I write about Brook’s interpretation of the play if I can’t see his production.Professor：Just because there’s no recording doesn’t mean you can’t figure out how it influenced other productions.Student：Yeah,I guess there’s enough material around,but it will be a challenge.Professor：True.But think about it,you are writing about dramatic arts,the theater,and that’s the nature of theater,isn’t it?Student：You mean because it is live,when the performance is finished...Professor：That’s it.Unless it’s filmed,it’s gone.But that doesn’t mean we can’t study it.And of course some students in this class are writing about productions in the 19th century,there are no videos of those.You know,one of the challenges for people who study theater is to find way of talking about something that’s really so transient,about something that,in a sense,doesn’t exist.《对话》教授：好吧，我们一起来谈谈吧!嗯，莎翁经典剧目的当代演出。

【威学教育】Fancy托福口语TPO-16听力文本
TPO 16Task 3:Now listen to two students discussing the letter.Woman: Did you read that letter in the paper?Man: Sure, and though she’s right about the problems, I don’t think what she proposes will do much good.Woman: Really?Man: Yeah. Take her first suggestion: I mean, have you seen the health center Woman: Of course! Why?Man: Well…it’s tiny. It suf fers from lack of space, so, unless they build more treatment rooms or offices or something…Woman: Oh, I see…Man: And also, her second suggestion.Woman: It seems like that’ll help things out…Man: Well…not necessarily …I mean…think about it. A lot of students aren’t even here on the weekends.Woman: That’s true.Man: They leave town and get away; there’s not a lot of people here.Woman: Yeah, like me, I got home probably …at least twice a month.Man: Right, and a lot of us leave campus for the weekend even more often than that.So there’s just not a lot of demand for treatment then. See what I mean?The man expresses his opinion about the student s suggestions that are made in the letter. State the man’s opinion and explain the reasons he gives for holding that opinion.Task 4：Listen to part of a lecture in a psychology class.(man)Now a study was done that illustrated this phenomenon. In the study people were given an ordinary task that everyone has probably done before. They were simply asked to peel potatoes, and to peel as many potatoes as possible in a given amount of time. OK so, some people worked alone, and they were told that the number of potatoes they each peeled would be recorded. Others peeled potatoes together, as part of a group, and they were told that only the total number of potatoes peeled would be recorded. So it would be impossible to tell how many any one person had done.Then researchers compared the results of people who worked alone and those who worked together to see if there was any difference. That is, they took the average score of the people working alone and compared it to the average score of the people working together in a group, and they did discover a difference! It turns out thatpeople working in a group peeled significantly fewer potatoes that people who worked alone.Using the example from the lecture, explain what social loafing is, and how it affects behavior.Task 5：Now listen to a conversation between two students.Woman: Hey Steve, did you get that book on the Russian Revolution that Professor Harper wants us to read?Man: No, none of the bookstores in the campus area had it in stock. They’ll get it in about two weeks.Woman: Hmm…so what are you going to do in the meantime? Remember, that we’re going to be discussing the book starting next Tuesday.Man: I was thinking of placing a rush order with a bookseller on the internet, so I'd have the book in about a day or two.Woman: Yeah, but rush order delivery is expensive. You could easily spend twice as much money for the book that way.Man: I know, but what choice do I have?Woman: Well, since we only have to read a couple of chapters at a time, you're welcome to share my copy for a few weeks. You know, until you can get yours at the bookstore.Man: You mean…you would read the chapters assigned, give the book to me, I’d read those chapters, then give the book back to you to read the next set of chapters, and so on.Woman: ExactlyMan: Thanks! But, what if I don’t get the book back to you in time. Wouldn’t you get behind in your reading?Woman: Yeah maybe. But it s hould work if we’re careful.The students discuss two possible solutions to the man's problem. Briefly summarize the problem, then state which of the two solutions you prefer and explain why.Task 6：Now listen to part of a talk in a psychology class.OK, ever thought about the things that happen to you and what’s responsible for them?We psychologists have a term Locus of Control. Locus of Control refers to...um…where people think control over their lives comes from. Whether it comes from themselves or from somewhere else. People who think that control is in themselves are internals, and people who think it comes from somewhere else are externals.Lets say there are two people going for job interviews. One of them is an internal, she has an internal locus of control. Since she thinks that control comes from within herself, she'll believe that her success and her preparation are really her responsibility.So she’s likely to really work on her interview skills ahead of time. Then, if she gets the jo b, she'll believe it's because she's worked so hard, and if she doesn't get it, well,she’ll probably be disappointed with herself, and uh…try to figure out how she can improve for the next time.OK, and another job candidate is an external, eh perceives other things, say…his interviewers to have more influence, after all, it’s their decision. It depends on what mood their in and, you know, luck. Now, with his external locus of control, his not as hard on himself, so he's more likely to take risks. He might interview for a job that he's not completely qualified for. And if he gets it, he'll think he's really lucky and because he thinks external forces are in control, he might think its because the interviewers were having a good day. And if he doesn't get it, he'll probably blame the interviewers or bad luck rather than look at himself and try to figure out what he could have done better.Using points and examples from the talk explain internal and external locus of control.。

托福TPO16听力Conversation1文本 Narrator: Listen to a conversation between a student and a facility manager at the university. Woman: Hi, I am Melanie, the one who’s been calling? Man: From the Singing Group, right? Woman: From the Choir. Man: Right! The Choir. It’s nice to finally meet you in person. So, you’re having problem with? Woman: Noise, like I explained on the phone, we’ve always had our rehearsals in the Lincoln Auditorium, every day at three o’clock, and it’s always worked just great. But the past few weeks, with the noise, it’s been a total nightmare, since construction started next door on the Science Hall. Man: Oh, that’s right! They’re building that addition for new laboratory. Woman: Exactly! Anyway, ever since they started working on it, it’s been so noisy that we can barely hear ourselves sing! Man: Let alone singing! Woman: Forget about singing! I mean we keep the windows down and everything, but once those bulldozers get going, I mean those machines are loud. We’ve already had to cut short two rehearsals and we’ve got a concert in six weeks. Man: Well, that’s not good. I’m assuming you’ve tried to reschedule your rehearsals? They don’t do construction work at night. Woman: I ran that by the group, but there were just too many, I mean, evenings are really hard. It seems like every one in the Choir already has plans, and some even has classes at night. Man: And what about the music building? Woman: You know, originally we were booked in one of the rehearsal rooms in the music building, but then we switched with the jazz ensemble. They are a much smallergroup and they said the acoustics, the sound in that room, was better for them. So having us move to a bigger space, like the Lincoln Auditorium, seems like a reasonable idea. Man: But, now? Woman: All that noise! I don’t know. I just wonder if the jazz ensemble knew what was going to happen. Man: Well, that wouldn’t be very nice. Woman: No, but it really was quite a coincidence. Anyway, now the music building’s fully booked, mornings, afternoons, everything. We just need a quite space, and it has to have a piano. Man: A piano! Of course, uh, some of the other auditoriums have pianos but that’s not going to be easy. Woman: You think they’re pretty booked up? Man: Probably, but it can’t hurt to check, what about Bradford Hall? I remember a piano in the old student center there. Woman: At this point, we’d be grateful for any quite place. Man: Can you, how flexible can you be on times? You said no evenings, but what if I can’t find something open at three o’clock? Can you move earlier, or later? Woman: I wish I could say another time would be OK, but, you know how it is – everybody’s already got commitments for the whole semester. 2:30 or 3:30 would probably be OK, but I don’t think we could go much outside that. Man: Well, check with me tomorrow morning. I should’ve found something by then. It might not be ideal. Woman: As long as it’s got a piano and nobody’s putting up a building next door, we’ll be happy. 托福TPO16听力Conversation1题目 1.What does the woman want the man to do? A.

2014年3月16日托福听力及解析(回忆版)
2014年3月16日托福听力及解析(回忆版）综述：2014年3月16日大陆托福听力考试难度适中，四篇讲座主题分别考到植物学，音乐史，考古学和化学。
从主题来看比较稳定，生物大类和艺术大类还是各考一篇，化学讲座的出现可能会对某些同学的理解造成困难，大家需要关注真题中仅有的几篇化学讲座作为参考。
2014年3月16日托福听力Conversation 1讲钢琴演奏，老师向学生准备的怎么样了。
学生说演出的地方面积比较大所以担心音效会不同。
教授接下来问作业的亊情，提到只给两周时间问学生能不能完成。
2014年3月16日托福听力Conversation 2女生注册教授的讨论课，工作人员说课己经满了所以只能把她放到waiting list，己经有七个人在等了，而且上这个课还葙要填表和做实验什么的但是很多学生不知道，结果导致时间冲突了。
女生问那么另一个教授的课可以注册吗结果发现也会有冲突，又问为什么经常变更，工作人员说因为会提前一个学期公布list方便毕业生选课，并且让学生关注网站因为上面有更新。
解析2014年3月16日托福听力考试两篇对话学术性都比较弱，整体来看难度不大。
新思达托福培训学校提醒大家第二篇的细节稍多一些相对更难理解，但是选课注册的主题大家应该比较熟悉a2014年3月16日托福听力Lecture l考古学讲座，讲一群群居的人如何根据天气变化在撒哈拉沙漠移动。
有几点证据，提到了地下水和雷达探测，壁画等等。
解析此篇讲座的内容可以参考TPO6的撒哈拉沙漠那篇，文章内容和考点都有类似的地方。
2014年3月16日托福听力Lecture 2讲一种人体内的纳米汽车，引擎动力拃化学反应，方向靠磁力。
解析化学讲座，理论比文科复杂，涉及纳米材料和科技新犮明，导致有同学对主题不熟悉。
本文有一定难度，机经也比较残缺。
2014年3月16日托福听力Lecture 3讲一种食虫草，生长的土地比较贫瘠，就抓虫子补充营养，可以分泌东西吸引虫子。
