新東方：英語四級考試聽力30天學(xué)習(xí)筆記

　　3、宏觀題

　　宏觀題考察文章的整體思想把握，即中心思想題(Main idea/ Topic題)。一篇文章的首尾是這篇文章的靈魂，體現(xiàn)Speaker的觀點。

　　考題特點：What is the passage mainly about? What is the passage talking about? What is the main idea of this talk? 等。

　　解題對策：對于中心思想題。我們可以從三方面來把握。

　　一、從選項入手。選項中出現(xiàn)的多次重復(fù)的詞一定是中心詞(Key word)，正確的main idea選項應(yīng)該包括，圍繞這個中心詞來敘述。

　　二、從段子入手，要特別注意文章的兩頭。尤其是文章的開始兩個句子最重要。開頭一定出考題!具體需要聽的是文章開頭的名詞。選答案時要優(yōu)先選含有該名詞的選項。

　　三、從段子后面的問題入手。這樣也可以提供中心詞的線索。大多數(shù)的考題都問及的詞一定就是此段的中心詞。

　　線索詞：

　　(1)段子開頭的名詞

　　(2)文章中間的高頻詞

　　(3)選項中有如下小詞出現(xiàn)：development;evolution;formation;new;effect;and。

　　4、細節(jié)題：first;most;because;just;only

　　Script

　　Nowadays motorcycling is fast becoming one of America’ s most popular sports. However, there are several things about motorcycling that the average citizen dislikes. Motorcyclists fre­quently look dirty; in fact, they are dirty. On the road there is little to protect them from mud, insects, and bird droppings. For practical reasons they often dress in old clothing which looks much less respectable than the clothing of people who ride in cars. For the same reason motorcy­clists usually wear dark colors.

　　Of course the danger of motorcycling also helps account for many people’ s low opinion of the sport. Its defenders, however, claim that careful cyclists are in less danger than is commonly be­lieved. A cyclist must drive as if no one else on the road chase him. He must pay careful attention to his driving. From that point of view, a man on a motorcycle is safer than a man in a car.

　　Questions 14 to 16 are based on the passage you have just heard.

　　14. Why do motorcyclists often dress in old and dark clothing? 選項涉及中心詞

　　15. What is the average citizen’s opinion about motorcycling?

　　16. How can a motorcyclist be safer than a car driver?
