李阳疯狂英语听力突破掌上宝(上、下册)文本 0我的自述
很多英语学习者只是通过反复模 信这段自述就在发音上获得了巨大的进步和成就感。请模仿范例,在音词 下面标注音标,争取一段文章突破音标关!
Hi, this is Li Yang. I graduated from Lanzhou University and majored in Mechanical Engineering. I was a poor student of English, and it was my biggest headache and troublemaker. I got sick and tired of learning boring grammar rules and lifeless words. But through hard work in practicing speaking English and braking away from the traditional grammar games, I found myself a totally different and exciting new world. Not only did I pass band 4 and band 6 College English exams very easily with high marks, but more importantly, I began to use English.
Finally, I developed a new Language cracking System myself. I began to teach German not long after I stared to learn this terribly difficult language in my own way. It was a miracle but I made it. To speak good English, I think one year of study should be enough for and diligent and intelligent person. I'd like to share my leaning techniques with you, and I will be very glad to answer your letters and be your friend. For further information, please write to 510010 P.O. Box 511 Guangzhou.

1 口语突破听力 --口语听力共同辉煌之疯狂原则
1.1 疯狂原则
世界上其实根本不存在听力的问题!听力的真正突破是以口语突破为基础的。孤立的、“默默无闻”的为听而听的听力训练存在巨大弊端并且极其低效。克立兹方法告诉你:你一定能听懂你说出的东西! 你只管支大量地练习说,只要发音纯正、用法地道,你的听力必将一日千里!而且你采用的是超级“三最”口腔肌肉训练法,你比外国人说得还要快,难道还怕听不懂吗?现代化的语言实验室和磁带将退居二线! 1.2 如何做到发音纯正
只要注意发音五大秘诀,然后再模仿一盘地道美音的磁带,发音就可以完全过关!有关发音的详细阐述请参阅 《李阳·克立兹对发音的最后宣战——英语发音突破掌上宝》。 1.3 如何做到用法地道
刚开始的时候,要注意选择地道的教材,刻苦模仿,养成良好的地道英语习惯。更重要的是,要学会“时时刻刻处处”收集地道的句子,用三最法彻底将它们“私有化”,逐步改造自己的中国式英语,逐步增强自己的地道英语表达能力。
我印象最深的一个地道表达法是care for, 那是在一次偶然的交谈中学到的,我通过国外的字典和教材收集了以下五个句子,使这个动词短语成为我脱口而出的朋友!以后一听到这个短语,我立刻就会有反应, 因为我自己也经常用care for! Do you care for this kind of music? Personally, I don't like jazz. I read the novel last night, but I didn't care for it at all. The poetry is very realistic. I don't care for it very much. (这首诗是写实的,我不太喜欢。) Would you care for a cup of tea?
I don't really care for tea; I like coffee better 1.4 最高境界
说话阅读等于练习听力
就象你的母语,你已经不用再购买磁带,只要是你说过的东西、读过的东西,你肯定能够听懂!这就是我能够轻松听懂美国电影、听懂广播电视、听懂专业讲座的原因。因为我的发音地道,我的语感良好,就象外国人一样,所以只要是我读过的东西,我就能听懂!于是我只要把美国电影的剧本、广播电视新闻稿、专业报告的文字材料大声朗读一遍,我就可以毫不费力地听懂!英语是我的第二母语! 1.5 阅读练听力是我能胜任各类口译的秘密武器!
有这样一块空白的地方,我想再送给您一个漂亮的句子,下次见面时和我比赛一下,看谁说得又快又标准!
You made the most of our three days in Paris. I think you saw everything there. [注] make the most of something = do the best one can in a situation; get as much as possible out of it: 尽量利用;获得最大利益。
2 李阳·克立兹句子处理“疯狂三步曲”
现在让我们来做第一步:疯狂地收集地道句子,疯狂地脱口而出!下面是和一个句子建立深厚感情的三个步骤:
➢ 把收集到的地道句子全部换成第一人称,想象那些事情就发生在你自己身上或自
己周围!
➢ 然后用“三最”法“恶狠狠”地喊若干遍,直至脱口而出!
➢ 最后以标准的语速和自然的语调充满深情地、得意地说一遍!就象是一个外国人
正在讲这句话,同时脑海中想象一下这句话所描述的具体情景!然后举一反三活学活用,彻底私用化。
到这里就算基本上掌握这个句子了,以后遇到类似的句型就会象母语一样立刻反应,小菜一碟。这个立刻反应是指立刻脱口而出,听懂当然就更没有问题了!李阳·克立兹英语口语突破法就是英语听力突破法!听力在我们这里根本不成问题 !
2.1 示范一:
They would have come to the meeting if they had knwn about it.(他们如果知道 这个会议就会来参加了。) [C]
[A] Although they knew there was going to be a meeting, they didn't come. [B] They didn't want to attend the meeting, but they did anyway. [C] They didn't know about the meeting.
[D] They didn't let anybody know about the meeting, so nobody attended. 第一步:改装如下:
I would have come to the meeting if I had known about it. 第二步:“三最”。李阳·克立兹的记录是:2秒。
第三步:深情、含糊地说一遍。然后想象在什么情况下可以把这个句子卖弄出去。比如:为什么技术科的同志/他们/你的父母没有来参加会议?这时你可以自豪地脱口而出这句“虚拟语气”的句子,这是多么的了不起!
特别注意:在四个供选择的答案中虽然有三个是错的,但这三个错的答案同样是地道的英文,也可以用上面的三个步骤进行处理。也就是说这道题包含了五笔财富!
2.2 示范二:
John was supposed to arrive at 6:15,but he's an hour and a half late. (约翰应该六点一刻到,但他晚了一个半小时)[C] [A] The time is now 6:45. [B] The time is now 7:15. [C] The time is now 7:45 [D] The time is now 7:20
1 | Page
第一步:改装如下:
I was supposed to arrive at 6:15, but I'm an hour and a half late. 第二步:“三最”。李阳克立兹的记录是:3秒。一分钟可以读20遍。
第三步:深情、含糊地说一遍。然后想象在什么情况下可以把这个句子卖弄出去。比如:当你约会的人让你足足等了一个半小时,你可以冲着他/她生气加自豪地脱口而出这个高级精品句,多么了不起,因为你正确地使用了be supposed to!
Every student is supposed to know the school regulations.(每个学生都应该知道校规) The program was supposed to begin at 9 o'clock, but the president's speech delayed it 20 minutes.= the program began at 9:20.
2.3 示范三:
John must have forgotten about our meeting.(约翰一定忘记了我们的会议了)[B] [A] John never forgets when he has a meeting. [B] It seems that john forgot about our meeting. [C] John should have cancelled the meeting. [D] John has to come to the meeting. 第一步:改装如下:
Mom must have forgotten about my birthday. 第二步:“三最”。李阳·克立兹的记录是:1.5秒。
第三步:深情、含糊地说一遍。然后想象一下这句话所描述的情景:大家在开会,唯独约翰没有来,于是进行了猜测。然后再接着想象在什么情况下可以把这个句子卖弄出去。我立刻把大脑开动起来,想出以下几个句子:
She must have been beautiful when she was young.(她年轻时一定很漂亮。)[高级精品句]
He must have told a lie. (他一定说了谎。) John must have been exhausted after that run. = John was probably very tired after running.
2.4 示范四:
It's not like Ted to be late for an appointment, so I don't know what's keeping him. (迟到可不是泰德的作风,我不知道 是什么事情耽搁了他)[C] [A] Ted pointed out where the key was. [B] Ted doesn't want to be appointed. [C] Ted is usually a punctual person. [D] Ted doesn't know he has an appointment. 第一步:改装。其实只需将名字换 一个就可以马上用了。 第二步:“三最”。李阳·克立兹的记录是:3秒。
2 | Page
第三步:深情、含糊地说一遍。然后想象一下在什么情况下可以把这个句子卖弄出去。比如老板/老师/自己的好朋友是个非常守时的人,但某一天却来晚了,于是你脱口而出上面这个漂亮的句子。
2.5 示范五:
W: Hi, bob. Come on in. I'm glad you could make it to the party this evening. But where' s Jane?
M: She sends you here apologies. She has a big exam tomorrow and wants to be sure she's ready for it.(她向你表示道歉。明天她有一个大考试,她想准备得充分一点)
Q: What's Jane doing this evening? A: Studying for an exam.
第一步:改装。这个对话里的句子可以分开改装使用。当别人应邀参加你的晚会时,你可以说:come on in. I'm glad you could make it to the party this evening. 当代替别人道歉时可以说:She sends you her apologies. 当别人请你去看电影/吃饭/聚会,而你因为要考试不能去时,可以说:I have a big exam tomorrow and want to be sure I'm ready for it. 一个小对话里的“财富”可以使我在三个不同的场合潇洒地脱口而出!可见“改装”和“私用化”能力在学习英语中是多么重要!在学习完李阳·克立兹教材以后,就庆该熟练地掌握了改装能力和技巧,并养成了随时随地忙改装的习惯。 第二步:“三最”。李阳·克立兹的记录是:9秒。
第三步:深情、含糊地说一遍。然后想象一下在什么情况下可以把这些句子卖弄出去。
2.6 示范六:
Peter always has got a lot of good ideas but he rarely follows them through to completion.(彼得常常有很多好主意,但他很少善始善终/经常半途而废。) = He doesn't usually finish what he starts.
第一步:改装。我以前也是这样的,但现在有点改进,所以这个句子可以改装成:I used to have a lot of good ideas but I rarely followed them through to completion. 第二步:“三最”。李阳·克立兹的记录是:3秒。
第三步:深情、含糊地说一遍。然后想象一下在什么情况下可以把这些句子卖弄出去。比如你的好朋友/同事/你父亲就是这样一类人,你可以用上面的句子评价他们。下面再给大家一个句子,以便掌握“善始善终”这个成语:
He followed the plan through to the end. (他把那计划贯彻到底。)
2.7 示范七:
The professor was so lost [忘形的;人迷的] in though that he missed his stop. [D] [A] [B]
He missed the bus because he lost his way. He thought a lot about losing his job.
3 | Page
[C] [D]
He thought he was lost, so he stopped driving.
He passed his stop because he wasn't paying attention.
第一步:改装如下。
I was so lost in thought tat I missed my stop. 第二步:“三最”。李阳·克立兹的记录是:2.5秒。
第三步:深情、含糊地说一遍。然后想象一下在什么情况下可以把这些句子卖弄出去。教授和学者好明是这个句子的主要对象,因为他们总是若有所思。我也常常坐过站,不是因为入迷和忘形,而是因为太累睡着了。
2.8 示范八:
Before the class began, a dozen students were in the room, but soon the number doubled. = There were 24 students in the class after it had begun. 第一步:改装如下:
Before the meeting/lecture/speech began, a dozen people were in the room, but soon the number doubled.
第二步:“三最”。李阳·克立兹的记录是:2.5秒。
第三步:深情、含糊地说一遍。然后想象一下在什么情况下可以把这些句子卖弄出去。
2.9 示范九:
W: Did you hear that the neighborhood convenience store was held up last night? M: Yes, I heard it on the radio this morning.
Q: What happened at the convenience store last night? A: There was a robbery[抢劫].
第一步:改装。当向别人讲述事件的时候,可以用:Did you hear that…; 当告诉别人消息来源时 可以用:I heard it on the radio this morning. 而且来学会了两个可以卖弄的重要说法:neighborhood convenience store(社区便利店)hold up(抢劫). 第二步:“三最”。李阳·克立兹的记录是:7秒。
第三步:深情、含糊地说一遍。然后想象一下在什么情况下可以把这些句子卖弄出去。这个对话我经常用,因为95、96年广东发生了数次重大恶性抢劫杀人案件。 下面给大家几个实用的句子财富:
The building of the new road has been held up by bad weather.(这条新路的建设因坏天气而耽搁了。)
The gunman held up the passengers and took all their money.(这名手洗劫了乘客。)
2.10 示范十:
4 | Page
W: I'd love to see a different type of movie for a change. I'm tired of movies about prison breaks[越狱] an insane [疯狂的;患精神病的;非常愚蠢的;毫无见识的]asylums[精神病院;收容所;避难所]. (一词多译,苦练中英文自由转换能力) M: I agree; let's go to see the new movie at the Center Theater. I hear it's a realistic and touching story of two young lovers.
Q: What kind of movie does the man not want to see? A: One about jail escapes and mental hospitals.
第一步:改装。上面那段话,我相信很多人会有同感。现在社会上的人已经不知道应该如何去消谴,关于色情、暴力、变态的电视和电影充斥计会,造成了恶劣的影响。我相信人们热爱美好上进的事物,也需要这些美好的东西来净化人们的思想、陶冶人们的情操。 上面这个对话几乎不用改装,就可以马上卖弄,“据为己有”。 第二步:“三最”。李阳·克立兹的记录是:14秒。
第三步:深情、含糊地说一遍。然后想象一下在什么情况下可以把这些句子卖弄出去。比如你和你的朋友去看电影、去借录像带、光碟等等。
下面再送给大家十个句子和对话,自己骈进行上面的三个步骤: 1) It's amazing how much the boy takes after [象,相似] his father.
=Father and son are very much alike[相像].
2) There was so little traffic that Stone got home from work in half of the usual time.
(交通顺畅,史东只用了平常 一半的时间就到家了。) =Stone took half as long to get home.
3) The nurse suggested that he rest for half and hour before going back to work. =The nurse said he should take a break before returning to work.
4) I wold have driven to the theater last night, but it's always so difficult to find a parking
place. =I didn't drive.
5) Little did she imagine that I passed the history course. =She didn't imagine that I passed the history course. 6) W: This room is so stuffy, I can hardly breathe.
M: I think they should ban smoking here, don't you? Q: Why is the woman complaining? A: Too many people are smoking.
7) W: Professor Stone helped me so much that I'm thinking of buying him a book of
poetry.
M: I think you should get him a record. Just because he's and English teacher doesn't mean that al he does is read. Q: What does the man mean?
A: People who teach English like thing s besides books. 8) W: How about phoning Liz and asking her to join us for dinner?
M: I think you should phone her, she hardly knows who I am.

Q: What does the man mean? A: That Liz doesn't know them well.
9) W: I have an extra ticket to the concert tonight. Would you like to come along?

4 如何在听不懂的情况下照样选对答案(中英文对照)
➢ 学一点“害人”的、只对考试有用的技巧
➢ 三大实用技巧,抓住听力考试题的致命弱点,在紧张的听力考场上运筹帷幄、稳
操胜券!
这里所谈的技巧以托福考试为样本,它是英语考试的典范,国内的高考、四级、六级等考试都在逐渐向它靠拢。
以下比较难的部分采取中英文对照形式,其余的只给出英文,所有资料都适合进行三最口腔肌肉训练。编写忱个部分的一个疯狂目的是要求大家能够用英文来告诉别人如何对付听力考试!这是李阳·克立兹的一贯信念:一步登天!
首先让我们来熟悉标准听力考试的结构:
[1] The Listening comprehension section of the TOEFL contains fifty questions.
There are three sections to this part of the test.
[2] Part A: in this section you hear a short statement and you are asked to select
the answer closest in meaning to what you heard. There are twenty questions in Part A.
[3] Part B: In this section you hear a short dialogue between two speakers. A third
speaker will then ask you a question about what was said. There are fifteen questions in Part B.
[4] Part C: In this section you hear three longer talks. Either a conversation
between two people or a lecture given by one person. Each talk is followed by four to six questions, for which you are asked to select the best answer. There are fifteen questions in art C.
[5] Total time for the section is about thirty minutes. There are fifty questions total
on this section.
[李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌内训练记录为:35秒]
在进行听力考试的时候,你要面对巨大的时间压力!因为:
You can't take any extra time for hard questions! (对于难的问题,你没有多余的时间!)
无论听懂还是听不懂,难还是简单,你都 只有同样的时间!只有一次机会!很多人由于心理素质差和缺 乏技巧而在听力考 试中一败涂地!所 以听力考 试就象一场 竞争激 烈的体育运动!有人把它比作打网球:
[1] Even if you've never played tennis, you've probably at some point in your life
seen it played. Your goal for this section is to learn to play the game of Listening comprehension. Understanding what is on the tape is only one small part o the game. First of all, you need to learn to pace[为…定步调;掌握速度] yourself. Think for a moment about what makes a good tennis player.
1 | Page
[2] Bad tennis players spend a lot of time watching the ball and running to try to
catch up to it.
[3] Good tennis players spend a lot of time watching their opponents to anticipate
[预料] where the ball will go so that they can be there first and be ready to hit it back.
[4] Most people take the Listening Comprehension section the way bad tennis
players play tennis——always running a little bit behind. To do well on this section, you need to stay one step ahead of your opponent——you need to stay ahead of the questions.
[李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌内训练记录为:35秒] 翻译的最高境界:中国人说中国话
(即使你从来没有打过网球,但你要能看过别人打。你现在要做的就是学会玩听力考试的游戏。听懂只是这个游戏的一小部分。首先,你需要学习如何控制自己的步调。现在让我们来看看一个好的网球运动员是如何做的。
普通的网球运动者把大部分时间用在盯着别人的球, 然后再仓促地跑过去接球,完全处于被动地位;而网球高手则是盯着对手,并预料球的方向以便先发制人。
大多数参加听力考试的人表现得就象那个普通的网球运动者,总是慢 一步。所以要想做好听力考试,你必须比对手先行一步,你必须走在问题的前面。
下面我们来谈一谈技巧。李阳·克立兹听力训练的硬功夫要求是:像母语那样去听懂!这里所谈的技巧主要是帮助那些听力很差的人对付考试、蒙混过关,当然对具有英语真功夫的朋友,这些技巧 也会帮助他们更加稳操胜券! 4.1 技巧一: Reading ahead提前阅读
You have about twelve seconds to answer each of the questions in Parts A and B, no matter how hard or easy each question may seem. The best use of these twelve seconds is to use them to get a sense of [进行大致了解] the upcoming [即将到来的] question. To do this:
Read the answer choices before you hear each question.
(在听每个问题之前,先抓紧时间阅读四个选择答案。)
When you take the test, you will hear the voice on the tape reading the directions for Part A. You will not be able to see the question for Part A until the directions have been read. However, you should turn the page the instant [一…就] you hear the end of the directions, which sounds something like this:
Sentence (B)\"Could you help me carry these books\" is closest in meaning to the sentence you heard. Therefore you should choose answer (B). As you are turning the page you will hear
Go on to the next page. Now let us begin Part A with question number one.
But by then you should already be reading the answer choices to question 1 in order to get ready to listen. Then, as soon as you hear
2 | Page
Question number one…
Followed by whatever that question may be, choose your answer and mark it as quickly as possible. Now you can use the rest of the twelve seconds to read the answer choices for qwuestion2, and so on.
(听到第一个问题后,就迅速选择答案,然后以最快的速度标记答案。这时你就可以用剩余的/节省出来的十二秒钟去阅读下一个问题的选择答案。)
The key to this method is discipline [纪律]. You'll find you tend to want to linger [逗留;耽搁] on each of the questions until you hear the beginning of the next one. DON'T DO IT! That's how you can end up [以…结束] missing two or three questions in a row; if you don't know the answer, GUESS an move on!
(这个方法的关键是纪律。你可能会犹豫不定,在每个问题上耽搁久,直至你听到下一个问题开始。千万不要这么做!否则你可能会连续错过两、三个问题,如果你不知道答案,只管猜,然后就继续前进。)
[李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌肉训练记录为:60秒] 提前阅读技巧四步骤总结
[请用英文讲给别人听]
➢ When you hear the end of the instructions begin reading the answer choices for
question 1.
➢ As soon as you hear the question, guess.
➢ Use the rest of the twelve seconds to read the answer choices for the next
question.
➢ Repeat steps 2 and 3 until the end of Part A. 4.2 技巧二: Guess the Topic猜测话题
Staying ahead of the questions helps you overcome the problems caused by the time pressure on this section. Any time you don't see the correct answer, just guess and keep moving. Now that you're keeping up with the ball in this game, that is , staying ahead of the questions, you can begin to practice the second skill you need to win — anticipating [预料] what you opponent will do. It's time to tackle [处理;应付] the second major difficulty of this section.
(走在问题的前面帮助你克服了由于时间紧张而引起的问题。如果你一下找不到正确的答案,就只管进行猜测,然后继续做下面的题目。既然你已经能够跟得上这场听力游戏中“球”的速度,那么你就可以开始操练第二个技巧——预料你对手的举动。现在是你对付第二个主要难题的时候了。)
[李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌肉训练记录为:15秒] 1. No context没有上下文/没有前后关联
In face-to-face conversation there are a lot of things that you rely on to help you understand what the other person is saying — facial expressions, hand gestures, and what you know about the person or the topic all give additional meaning to the words
3 | Page
used. Furthermore if this person uses some words or expressions that you 're not familiar with, you can use the context of the rest of the conversation to help you figure out what they mean.
(在面对面的谈话中,你可以依靠很多东西来帮助你理解对方的话——面部表情、手势和你所了解的对方的情况和话题,这些都给你额外的含义。另外,如果对方用了你不熟悉的单词和表达法,你可以借助其余对话的线索来理解它们的含义。)
All of these cues [线索;提示] are gone on Parts A and B of the Listening comprehension section. Aside from time, the largest hurdle to get over in order to do well on this section is that lack of context. For the questions on Parts A and B the information presented is isolated [孤立的]. The question you're waiting to hear on the tape could be about anything. You can't see the person speaking, so it's much harder to figure out their emotional state or opinion.
(在听力第一和第二部分,这些线索通通消失。除了时间的因素,这个部分的最大障碍就是缺乏上下文,所有的信息都是孤立的。你准备听到的可能是任何东西。你看不到那个人在说话,所以理解他们的感情状态和想法非常困难。)
[李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌肉训练记录为:30秒] 2. Guess the topic猜测话题
You're reading ahead, you've heard the end of the instructions for Part A, and you begin to read the answer choices for question 1. Let's say the choices are: 1. ... (A) I never heard the lecture.
(B) That kind of lecture never fascinates me. (C) That lecture was the most fascinating I've heard. (D) I would have preferred a different lecture.
What are most of the answer choices about? A lecture. So the stem will have to be about the same thing. Now you have a context. You know it will have something to do with a lecture. Your task is to find out more information about it.
[李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌肉训练记录为:23秒]
4.3 技巧三: Three Ways to Find the Right Answer 三个找到正确答案的方法 Reading ahead helps you keep up. Guessing the topic supplies you with a context and helps you listen actively. These three techniques help you narrow down [缩小;范围] your choices whether or not you have actually understood what is spoken on the tape .
[李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌肉训练记录为:8秒] 1. OPPOSITES相反的选择
One of ETS's [美国教育] favorite kind of wrong answers is one that traps people who almost understood the stem. It looks pretty similar to the correct answer, but means the opposite. For example:
(A) Sunday is a day Mary often works.
4 | Page
(B) Mary rarely works on Sunday. (C) Some days Mary's work is awful.
(D) Mary has had a terrible cough since Sunday.
In the example above, (A) and (B) are what we call opposites, that is, both statements could not be true. Of a typical Listening comprehension section, one third to one half of the questions contain opposites. This is good news for you because:
If there is one pair of opposites in the answer choices, one of them is the right answer!
(如果在四个选择答案中有两个对立/相反的句子,那么其中一个就是正确答案。) Even if you never hear the question, you now have a 50 percent chance of answering this question correctly. Furthermore a pair of opposites in the answer choices tells you exactly what the stem will be about. You only have to listen to hear confirmation [确认;证实] of one or the other of the two opposites. Find the opposites in the example below: 1. (A) Stone does not enjoy clothes shopping.
(B) Stone ate while he tried on the clothes. (C) Buying clothing is a pleasure for Stone.
(D) Not one piece of clothing was available in his size.
In this example, the opposites are (A), which say that stone doesn't like to buy clothes, and (C), which says that he does. Now when you hear the stem, you only need to find out which one is true. The stem is:
If there's one thing Stone hates, It's buying clothes. So the correct answer is (A).
Now try this one. First, reading the answer choices and find the opposites. 2. (A) I think your desk is far too tiny.
(B) Your desk is too messy. (C) I think you need a new desk. (D) I cleaned up your desk.
The opposites are (B) and (D). If you didn't recognize them, you need to be a little more broad in your understanding of the term. (B) implies that the desk is messy, and (D) implies that the desk is clean. That's enough for them to be considered opposites. So now all you need to do is decide if the desk is clean or messy. When you hear the stem. My, your desk could sure use some tidying up! You know the answer is (B). 2.COMMON SENSE常识
The people who write the TOEFL have very conservative tastes. None of their statements or dialogues will contain anything controversial, violent, passionate, or silly.
(编写托福考试的人比较保守,他们的句子和对话都不会包含有争议的、激烈的、热烈的和愚蠢的东西。)

Remember, you can use common sense to eliminate three types of wrong answers: Type 1: Answer choices that are too extreme [极端].
(A) Sunday is a day Mary often works. (B) Mary rarely works on Sunday. (C) Some days Mary's work is awful.
(D) Mary has had a terrible cough since Sunday.
Answer (C) is too extreme to be a good bet. ETS would probably say someone's work was \"unsatisfactory\" or even \"bad\offend anyone: any answers that might be controversial are automatically wrong. Type 2: Answer choices that have wrong subject, for example:
(A) He is a good football player. (B) He doesn't understand football at all. (C) He lives right across that field. (D) Playing football indoors is forbidden.
Since most of the answer choices are about football, you know that \"football\" is the topic of the stem, therefore you can eliminate answer (C). Now here's the stem He sure seems right at home on the football field.
The closest in meaning is answer (A). By the way, did you notice that (A) and (B) were opposites?
Type 3: Answer choices that are just plain silly [明显的愚蠢], for example:
(A) Rob is too tall to be an actor. (B) Rob's performance was excellent. (C) He didn't see Rob on stage.
(D) Rob was suspended above the stage.
Answer (A) is just silly. How can someone be too tall to be an actor? Answer choice (D) is weird [奇怪的] too. Now here's the stem. W: How was Rob in the new play last night?
M: Great! He was head and shoulders above the rest of the cast. Q: what does that man mean?
The expression \"head and shoulders above\" means \"far better than\meaning is answer (B). Notice that both silly answers, (A) and (D), are based on literal interpretations[字面理解] of the expression \"head and shoulders above\". If you hear something in the stem that doesn't make literal sense, it's an idiom. Idioms are a signal to be on the lookout for [提防;寻找] answer choices that take that idiom literally and turn it into something silly. 3. OPPOSITES相反的选择
6 | Page
Another of ETS's favorite trap answers is what we call a sound-alike. Sound-alikes take some of the words and sounds from the statement or dialogue and rearrange them so that they have a totally different meaning. Remember this example?
(A) Sunday is a day Mary often works. (B) Mary rarely works on Sunday. (C) Some days Mary's work is awful.
(D) Mary has had a terrible cough since Sunday. The statement was
Sunday is usually Mary's day off.
We already found the opposites in these answers, (A) and (B), and one extreme answer, (C). So now look at how ETS might trap you with sounds. Notice how many things in the answer choices echo [回响] the word \"off' in the statement— \"often\And in answer (C),The one answer choice without Sunday, has been replaced with \"some days\". The right answer, (B), is one of the pair of opposites, is not silly or extreme, and contains the fewest sound-alikes.
After you've found the opposites and silly answers, choose the answer choice that sounds \"least \" like what you heard on the tape.
You'll notice that many sound-alikes can also be eliminated using common sense. 4.4 Summary of Strategy技巧总结
Step 1: Read the answer choices before you hear the question. Step 2: While reading, look for The topic for Part A.
The topic or the question for Part B. Opposite pairs in the answer choices Anything that violates common sense.
Step 3: Listen to confirm what you found in step 2.
Step 4: Choose your answer. If you are still undecided, choose the answer choice containing the fewest sounds from the statement or dialogue.

5 听力突破小怪招(中英文对照)
—请同时用中英文象国际专家一样讲给别人听! Many people who have taken the TOEFL have reported that the tape was very difficult to hear, either because the volume was too low or because the quality of the tape player was very bad. Therefore you can't count on being able to hear the tape clearly. While you are preparing to take the TOEFL, there are some things you can practice to help you acquire the skills to better understand what you'll eventually be hearing on the tape.
Talk on the phone (in English of course).
Listen to talk shows and news reports on the radio.
Practice English where it's really hard to hear. If you have people with whom you can practice speaking English, try to go to noisy places to do it, such as restaurants or nightclubs or even train stations. If you can (even if it feels silly), try talking to each other without looking at each other, so you don't have the opportunity to use facial expressions or gestures to give you clues as to what your conversation partner is saying.
(到嘈杂的地方去操练英语,比如说餐馆或是夜总会,甚至火车站这样的地方。虽然感觉有点傻,但如果可能的话,试一试在不看对方的情况下进行谈话,这样你就没有机会借助面部表情或动作的线索来理解对方的意思。)

6.1.2 第一部分:对数字的敏感
2 | Page
[短评] 这个部分比较能够测试一个人英语的真功夫,因为必须几乎全部听懂才有可能选择对答案,而且有些计算即使是母语,也不一寂静能立刻算对。但这并不可怕,听力计算题的小把戏是有限的, 在疯狂三步曲的轰炸下,这些都是小菜一碟!

分钟只有一班。)

6.1.3 第三部分:相关
[短评] 这类考题一般包含两个或两个以上的人,他们之间有着某种关系。很多英语学习者存在这样一个问题:句子中出现了自己不熟悉的名字而误以为是一个新单词;或是出现了两个以上的名字而导致混乱。当然,解答这类题 有一些猜测的技巧,但最好的技巧还是象母语一样完全听懂!

an uncommon experience (不寻常的经历) an uncommon ability (非凡的才能)

speak Japanese and Chinese.

6.2 小对话
6.2.2 第一部分:信息搜索
[短评] 这个部分应该比较容易,答案就在对话中,只要能听懂,一般都可以选对。但问题是在对话中出现多种信息,如果我们的听力比较薄弱,就可能会导致顾此失彼或是糊糊涂涂!关于这类题目有一些蒙混过关的技巧,但是克立兹还是主张:与其花费时间研究那些无聊的、也许有点用的技巧,不如刻苦练习英语真功夫!有什么技巧能比完全、轻松听懂更有效呢?
1) W: John, I'm sorry to be so late. Thank you for waiting.
14 | Page

[注] 因为汽车在中国远远不普及,所以大多数人对汽车的常识很少,这样就导致这道听力题非常难!下面我们来学习一个有关汽车的重要词。 Gear: 齿轮组;汽车排挡;传动装置 A car with five gears(一辆有五档的汽车)
She changed gears to make the car go up the hill faster.(她换了档,使汽车在上
坡时快一点。)
A: The car isn't moving! B: That's because you're not in gear.(因为你没上档。) 4) W: You're always working around the house on Saturday, painting and doing repairs!

6.2.2 第二部分:听力老一套 — 计算
17 | Page
[短评] 就算是用中文对话,我们也需要时间反应和计算一下才能选择对答案,用英文就更难了。
下面一共为大家准备了十五段情景小对话,基本上概括了听力计算考题的主要“小把戏”,现在的关键问题就是要:反复!反复!再反复!直至脱口而出并接近或达到,甚至超过李阳·克立兹的“三最”口腔肌肉训练记录。经地这样的千锤百炼,你再参加听力考试时,就一定会有全新的感觉!
1) M: Do you rent rooms by the week? You see, I'm not sure whether I'll stay for a
whole month.(你们按星期租房吗?因为我不确信我是否会呆上整整一个月。) W: Yes. The rates [费用;价格] are higher though. It's 50 dollars a week, but only 160 dollars a month.
Q: How much will the man owe [欠] if he rents the room for three weeks? A: He will own 150 dollars.
[李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌肉训练记录为:10秒]
[注] 通过上面这段对话,我们应该掌握一个重要的词汇:owe.
Owe: 欠(债等);应该向(某人)付出;把…归功于;由于;感激;感恩。 I own him ten dollars. (我欠他十美元。) How much do you owe her? (你欠她多少钱?)
He owes his success to his hard work. (他认为自己取得的成功是辛勤劳动的结
果。)
I owe you for your help. (我感谢你的帮助。) 2) W: Excuse me. I'm trying to get to the student Union.
M: Sure. Just go down here to the corner and turn left. Then go straight for three blocks and turn left at the tower. It's two blocks from there. Q: How far must the woman walk to get to the Student Union? A: She must walk five or six blocks [街区;一段街]. [李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌肉训练记录为:11秒]
[注] 这是个典型的关于\"block\"的对话,block在听力考试中经常出现,在这里是指一个街区一边的距离,或是说两个街道之间的距离。它的另外一个意思是“由四条马路围成的方形楼房区”,或简称为“街区”。下面给大家三个典型的例句,以便正确使用这个单词。
The station is two blocks away. (车站离这里有两个街区。) I live two blocks from the school. (我住在离学校两个路口的地方。) We live in the same block. (我们住在同一街区。) 3) M: How much are the tickets.
W: They are ten dollars each for the general public, but student tickets are half price.(一般票价十美元,学生半价。)
Q: How much will the man pay for two general tickets and two student tickets? A: The man will pay thirty dollars.
[李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌肉训练记录为:7秒]
18 | Page
4) M: How much are these sweaters [毛线衣]?
W: They are on sale today, sir. Twenty-five dollars each, or two for forty dollars. Q: How much does one sweater cost? A: Twenty-five dollars.
5) M: I'd like to place a station-to-station call [叫号的长途电话] to Ann Arbor please.
How much will that be?
W: That's fifty-five cents for the first three minutes, and ten cents for each additional [附加的;追加的] minute.[王牌精品句](前三分钟是五十五美分,以后每分钟十美分。) Q: How much will the man pay for a ten-minute call?(打十分钟电话需要多少钱?) A: He will pay $1.25. [经典听力题]
6) W: Excuse me. Do you have the time? (现在几点了?)
M: Yes ma'am. I have 1:15, but my watch is a little bit fast. Q: What time is it?
A: It is a little before 1:15. (不到一点一刻。) [李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌肉训练记录为:5秒] 7) W: That's fifteen dollars, sir.
M: I'd like to pay by check. May I make it out for more than that?(我想用支票付帐,我可以多开吗?)
W: Certainly. There's a ten-dollar limit over the amount of purchase, though. Q: What is the maximum amount [最大限度;最大量] for which the man may write his check?
A: He may write a check for twenty-five dollars.
[注] 这个对话告诉我们一个国外的生活常识:limit是商店为了避免顾客开支票付款时,超出购买总额过多,反增加找钱的麻烦,而做的。 Ten-dollar limit 就是所开的支票,只能比购买的总金额多出十元。
另外,我们还需要掌握一个重要的动词词组:make out. make out: 书写;填写;开列。[中国人很难建立感情的短语]
make out a check. (开出支票)
to make out a bill / a list (开列帐单/ 清单)
8) M: Do I have enough postage [邮资] on this package?
W: Let's see. You already have three fifteen-cent stamps and two twenty-five cent stamps on it. You only need one five-cent stamp.
Q: What is the total amount of postage required to mail the package? A: $1.00.
[李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌肉训练记录为:9秒]
[注] 邮局寄信或包裹计算邮费是一种听力常用的小把戏,这道题已经是非常难的了,因为里面包含了七个数字单词!用“三最”法和“一口气”法疯狂操练,建立感情! 9) W: I thought [我原以为] that these typewriter ribbons [色带 ] cost three dollars.
19 | Page
M: They used to, but the price has gone up fifty cents.(它们以前是这个价,但现在价格升了五十美分。)
Q: How much do the typewriter ribbons cost now? A: They cost $3.50.
[李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌肉训练记录为:6秒] 10) W: Aren't there any direct flights?
M: I'm sorry. Your best bet [最佳选择] would be a nine A.M. departure on United flight twelve arriving in Chicago at eleven A.M., with a five-hour wait for your connecting [相连的;衔接的] flight to Los Angeles. [听力特别难题] Q: What time will the woman leave Chicago? A: At four o'clock.
[李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌肉训练记录为:10秒]
[注] 这是一道关于旅行转车/转机的典型题目。上面这道题属于比较难的一类,因为里面出现了\"几点离开”、\"航班号码”、\"中转地点”、\"到达时间”、\"等待转机时间”、\"最终目的地”等大量信息,如是英语真功夫,就会很容易产生混乱!
11) W: I like these glasses, but they look like they would be quite expensive.(我喜欢这些,
但它们看起来好象很贵。)
M: They're 15 dollars a piece, or 150 dollars a dozen. Really that's not very expensive for genuine [真正的] leaded [上含铅的釉的] crystal [水晶玻璃制品]. Q: How much does one glass cost? A: 15 dollars.
[李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌肉训练记录为:8秒] 12) M: My car gets forty miles per gallon.
W: Really? Mine only gets twenty.
Q: How does the man's mileage compare with that of the woman? A: The man's mileage is twice that of the woman. [李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌肉训练记录为:7秒] [注] 这里有必要向大家解释一个mileage。
Mileage:里数;里程;消耗一加仑汽油所行驶的里程。
13) M: We don't have meters [计量器] here in Washington, because we have zones [地
区;同一收费区]. This is a two-zone ride, so the fare [车费] is $2.45. W: Here's three dollars. Keep the change [不用找钱]. Q: How much did the woman give the driver as a tip [小费]? A: Fifty-five cents.
14) M: Miss smith, I told Dr. Brown that I would call him in the Houston office at ten
o'clock their time. Please find out the time difference for me so that I'll know when to place the call.(史密斯小姐,我告诉布朗博士,我将在当地时间十点致电其休斯顿办公室,请帮我查一下两地的时间差,以便 我了解何时打电话给他。)
20 | Page
W: It's two hours earlier in Houston, sir. I know without looking it up because my sister lives there.(休斯顿时间比这里早两个小时。因为我妹妹住在那里,所以不用查我就知道。)
Q: When should the man place his call to Houston? A: At twelve o'clock.
[李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌肉训练记录为:7秒]
[注] 大家要特别注意并掌握“打电话”的不同说法,现在归纳如下:
a.make a phone call b. telephone/ phone c. call d. call up e. place a call My sister called me from Shanghai last night. I'll call you up later. (我待会给你打电话。) I'll telephone/phone you this evening.
15) M: Hello. This is Tom Davis. I have an appointment with Mrs. Jones for nine o'clock
this morning, but I'm afraid I'll have to be about fifteen minutes late.
W: That's alright, Mr. Davis. She doesn't have another appointment scheduled until ten o'clock. [王牌精品句](没关系。琼斯夫人十点钟以前都有空/十点钟以前都没有其它的安排。)
Q: When will Mr. Davis most probably meet with Mrs. Jones? A: At 9:15. [从听力考试中获得实战能力] [李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌肉训练记录为:11秒]
6.2.3 听力老一套 — 猜地方
[短评] 在这里需要再次强调一下,猜对地方真是很容易,根据对话中的“蛛丝马迹”,经常会在几乎没有听懂的情况下就猜出了对话发生的地点。但这又有什么用呢?实际生活和工作不是听力考试题,你花费大量的精力和金钱也不是为了只要猜对答案就万事大吉! 我们需要英语真功夫!脱口而出、表达一切的真功夫!请用“三最”法猛烈轰炸下面的精彩对话,直至象母语一样脱口而出!你一定会让外国人刮目相看的:你说的英语象他们说母语一样地道流畅!我们只通过“大喊”听力考题就可以达到这样的辉煌!
1) M: You will be glad to know that no new cavities [洞;穴] have shown up on the x-rays [X光照片], Miss Smith.
W: That is good news. I'll just have my teeth cleaned then.(那真是好消息,那么就请给我洗牙。)
Q: Where did the conversation most probably take place? A: At a dentist's office.
[李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌肉训练记录为:7秒]
[注] 在国外,由于生活习惯的影响,他们每天吃大量的甜食,于是牙齿问题成了一个日常主要担忧之一。在听力考试中,“看牙齿”是一个经常出现的情景。
2) W: I'd like to get this prescription [药方;处方] refilled [再填满] please.(我想按这个药
方再配一次药。)
21 | Page
M: I'm sorry, Miss. This prescription can't be refilled. See, it says \"no refill\" right here on the label [标签].
Q: Where did this conversation most probably take place? A: In a drug store.
[注] prescription是一个经常出现的重要单词,下面列出一些关于它的常用短语: Make a prescription (开药方)
Have the prescription filled = make up the prescription . (抓药;配方) Write out a prescription for (为…开药方) Prescription drug(非经医生处方不得买卖的药品) 3) W: Isn't Mary Ellen a beautiful bride?
M: She is indeed. John looks very happy too, doesn't he? He told me that they'll be going to Florida on their honeymoon.
(真是漂亮!约翰显得非常快乐,不是吗?他告诉我他们要去佛罗里达州度蜜月。) Q: Where did this conversation most probably take place? A: At a wedding.
[李阳·克立兹三最口腔肌肉训练记录为:7秒] 4) M: Press twelve, please. Thank you.
W: You're welcome. That's where I'm going too.
Q: Where did the conversation most probably take place? A: In an elevator [在电梯里].

6.3.3 长篇对话精选20篇 1) 我的汽车坏了
38 | Page
M:You will have to forgive me if I sound angry. But I am terribly upset. W:Well, what seems to be the trouble?
M:This car! You just sold it to me six months ago. And now it looks as though I'll have to get a new transmission.
W:That's a little unusual . I've never heard of that kind of problem before.
M:I had the car in here just couple of weeks ago because the oil light on the dashboard stayed on all the time.
W:I think I remember that. We had that fixed up, didn't we?
M:Sure. The light stayed off after that. But that's when the other trouble started. W:What other trouble? You know that since you bought the car here, we'll everything we can to help.
M:That's what they said in the device department. Anyway, I heard this terrible rattling in the motor, and then the car just seemed to lose all its power. I couldn't even get up the hill in front of my own house.
W:Did you get in touch with us about that?
M:It happened on a Sunday. I had to have the car towed to my own service station. And when they looked at the motor, they said the transmission had been burned out . On a car that's only six months old, I never heard of anything like this. Especially in a fancy, expensive car like this one.
W:Well, maybe that's covered by the warranty . Let's go into the manager's office and talk this matter over.
2) 南希真走运
W:Have you heard that Nancy's boss wants her to accept a six-week assignment in Hawaii?
M:She'll really like that, especially since all of her expenses will be paid and she can practice her English.
W:Yes, but most of all, she'll get to spend her leisure hours soaking up the sun on those lovely beaches.
M:When will she be leaving?
W:Since she doesn't need a passport , it'll probably be in about a week. M:That doesn't give her much time to get organized.
3) 我为写作文而苦恼
M:You don't look too happy. What seems to be the problem?
W:I've got to write a long composition for my English class, and just can't come up with any ideas, and it's due to tomorrow.
39 | Page
M:That shouldn't be too difficult. Remember those pictures you were showing me last week? The ones from your cruise last winter. W:Sure. I've got them here someplace.
M:Why don't you write about your impressions of the pyramids in Egypt and the camel ride you took.
W:That sounds like a good idea. I can also tell about our visit to North Africa, the Holy Land, and all of the historical, Biblical places we visited.
M:Well, now that you're feeling better about this, I think I'll be on my way. I've got to finish my composition too.
W:Thanks for your help. Once I get organized, it won't be so difficult.
4) 我要买你的二手车 M:Hello.
W:Hello. I noticed your want ad in the paper this morning. M:You mean about my Mercedes 350 ?
W:That's right. I noticed it's a ' 79 and wondered about its condition.
M:Well, it's in great shape. I've been the only driver, and all maintenance has been done according to the dates specified in the service manual.
W:The ad said it has air conditioning, power brakes, power steering , automatic transmission and a convertible top.
M:That's right. I forgot to add that the tires and battery are all new, too. It has comprehensive insurance, with coverage for another eight months. W:Do you mind my asking why you're selling the car?
M:Oh, my company is transferring me to Europe next month, so I plan to buy a new one over there.
W:I noticed you didn't mention any price in the ad. M:We can negotiate that if you would like to come see it. W:Fine. Where do you live?
M:At the corner of 8th and Main. I'll be home all evening. Come any time after 6:30 W:All right. I'll be there around 7.
5) 你这里有空房间吗 W:Good evening.
M:Hello. Do you have any vacancies here at your motel?
W:I believe there may be one. Did you make a reservation in advance? M:No, we didn't .
W:Well, we just received word that one reservation has been canceled, so you arrived at a good time.
40 | Page
M:I suppose so. By the way, how much is the room.
W:It's 30 dollars, with color TV and an extra bedroom. We have a pool in the back. M:That's good. We need the extra room with our two kids. W:If this is agreeable, please step into our office to register. M:Do you want the payment in advance? W:That's our policy. I'm sure you understand. M:Of course. What's the number of the unit?
W:No.61, on the second floor, over on the right. Here's the key.
M:Thank you. I'll park the car over there first and get the family unloaded. Then I'll come right over to register. W:Certainly, sir.
6) 接待国际商务伙伴
M:Mrs.Spencer, what time is Mr. Tanaka's flight expected to arrive at Kennedy Airport. W:Around 2 p.m., sir. Will you go with the company car to meet him?
M:Yes, so I'd better leave here no latter than noon. How about the accommodations at the Hilton for Mr. Tanaka and his party?
W:I made the reservations for them last week and checked again yesterday to be sure everything is ready.
M:Including the banquet room for tonight's reception?
W:That's right. The manager assured me that everything will be exactly as we have requested.
M:Excellent. I want everything to be the very best.
W:I'm sure it will be. That manager has never let us down yet.
M:We want to make a good impression. Not just to be sure that this business deal is a success, but to pay back the wonderful hospitality we received from them in Tokyo last year.
7) 参观工厂
M:Before we begin the tour of the factory, do you have any more questions?
W:Yes, I have one. I would like to know the exact difference between crystal and glass. M:Well, real crystal is generally a hard substance in which the atoms are arranged in a highly ordered structure much like the frame work of a skyscraper. W:Is that mean that in ordinary glass the molecules are not ordered?
M:That's right. But most of the glassware made here is actually lead crystal or glass with a high lead content.
W:Lead! Isn't lead poisonous?
41 | Page
M:Not when it's mixed with glass. What it does is to make a very good quality glass. I'll be showing you samples of several kinds of glass on our tour. If everyone is ready, we'll begin now, please follow me.
8) 我买不起那本书
M:What's that book you just picked up?
W:The sociology text Professor Miller uses in his course.
M:You're better read it if you want to pass the course. Miller swears by it. W:But it costs 30 dollars. I simply can't afford it.
M:Did you check the used book section? Perhaps they have it. W:No, they don't. I've asked.
M:Why don't you get it from the library?
W:Are you kidding? I've been trying for months, but it's always out .
There are over fifty students in the course and every single one wants the book. M:Listen, you know my roommate Henry, don't you?
He took the same course last year and I believe he owns the book. I'll ask him if he'll lend it to you.
W:Oh great, that would solve everything.
9) 我的驾驶考砸了
M:Well,Mrs.King. How did you do on your driving test? W:Not so well, I'm afraid. M:Didn't you get your license?
W:No. My score was only 57 percent. The woman who tested me was very strict about everything.
M:Where did you lose the most points?
W:One thing was not turning my head before changing lanes or making turns.
M:Right. Using a turn signal isn't enough. To be safe, you have to glance back over your shoulder in the direction you want to go.
W:My teacher didn't emphasize that enough. Or about maintaining the right distance behind the car in front.
M:That's right. You need a training distance of about one or two car lengths for every miles per hour going.
W:My parallel parking was good. I've been practicing that a lot. M:What was your worst moment?
W:Waiting on an uphill slope for the light to change to green. M:What happened?
42 | Page
W:Well, I let the car stall and forgot how to use the hand brake. So the car rolled back and bumped the one behind me. M:That alone probably failed you.
10) 我们迷路了 W:Pardon me, officer. M:Yes?
W:We're looking for the big department store around here. M:I'm afraid you're headed in the wrong direction.
W:But we were told that it was somewhere here in the downtown area. M:Yes, it is. But I meant you're walking the wrong way. W:Oh, I see. Could we trouble you for directions to get there? M:It's no trouble. It's only about a 10-minute walk from here. W:Oh,is that all?
M:Just walk back the same way you came for about a block, then turn right and stay on that street until you come to the next intersection. W:That's the corner of Granger and Forest, isn't it?
M:That's right. You'll see the big sign on the left side of the street. You can't miss it. W:Down a block to Granger and then right another block to Forest . Thanks very much. M:Don't mention it.
11) 想给你加薪升职
M:Please come in, Miss Edwards, and close the door behind you. W:All right.
M:Have a seat over here. How are things going out in the office? W:Just fine, Mr. Davis, especially with the recent personnel shifts.
M:Yes, I thought so. Well. I and the executive board feel that much of our improved performance in the main office is due to your conscientious efforts.
W:Oh,t hank you, Mr. Davis. My job has certainly become easier since we computerized our record-keeping system. The equipment is a pleasure to use.
M:That's true. But we are especially impressed with how your influence contributes to good office relations and improved staff attitude toward the work.
W:Well, thank you for your confidence. We do have a lot of good people in the office,and the new machinery is wonderful.
M:Yes, but machines are only as good as the people who use them. They cannot assure harmony and efficiency in a staff. W:That's very true.
43 | Page
M:To make a long story short, the board wishes to raward your efforts by making you office manager as of next Monday. That means a $250 raise as of the first of next month. W:I'm deeply honored, Mr. Davis. Thank you.
12) 地球的自转
M:I really don't understand how you can use the pendulum to demonstrate the rotation of the earth. In fact, your lecture went right over my head.
W:I'd be happy to run through it again. There are two basic principles that you have to keep in mind. The earth rotates around and axis that goes through the north and south poles. Since the surface of the earth is curved, the ground we're standing on right now in the northern hemisphere travels through space in a counter clockwise arc, not a straight line, as the earth turns.
M:I'm just not aware of the movement, because it's relatively slight.
W:Basically, now the other important concept, if you take a piece of string and attach a weight to the bottom, the weight will also sowing in a counter-clockwise direction once you set it in motion. Now if you make a pendulum long enough and hang it in a tall building, it will swing very slowly. The weight at the bottom will appear to slowly change its path as it swings back and forth. Actually the pendulum is moving in a straight line, and it is the earth that is slowly rotating under it. Does that make sense? M:Well,maybe I need to think about it a little more. Thanks anyway.
13) 无法忍受学校伙食
M:I don't think I can take another semester of this dorm food. W:I know what you mean. It leaves a lot to be desired.
M:Sure lacks taste, variety ,nutritional value. What I should do is move into an apartment off-campus where I can cook for myself.
W:That sounds like a good idea. Have you found anything yet? M:You know how hard it is to find a decent place at this time of year?
W:You should be able to find something comfortable in town, though that would be kind of far from school.
M:Since I've got a car, the distance wouldn't really be a problem. W:But the parking might be.
M:That's right. With the parking lots on the campus so crowded, it would be foolish even to try driving to school.
W:What about the extra expense?
M:I guess the rents in town are likely to be pretty high. W:You could find a roommate to share your cost.
44 | Page
M:After all, the problems I had with my roommate last semester? You know, this dorm food is starting to look better by the minutes.
14) 我想选修您的课
M:Hello, Professor Ward speaking.
W:Hello, my name is Ann Smith. I'd like to take your course on medicinal plants. M:I'm sorry, there are already too many students in that class.
W:I know. But I'm a student from another university, and I'll be here only 2 semesters. The course isn't offered at my school and I think it would be interesting. M:I see. Have you studied much botany? It's an advanced course, you know.
W:Yes. I am majoring in biology and I've also done some economic botany on my own. M:Well, I'll do my best. Why don't you come to my office about next week? I'll be in all day Wednesday. I can tell you more about the class and the other courses here. In any case, you'll have to see Professor Chambers to get his approval. If all else falls you can register for my course in the spring. We will cover many of the same topics then. W:Thanks. I'll be in Wednesday.
15) 你需要注意饮食
M:I'm looking for Mrs. Smith's office. W:I'm Mrs. Smith, come right in.
M:I was at the student health services yesterday. They told me that my blood pressure is too high.
W:Then I suppose you need a low sodium diet to help bring your blood pressure down. M:That's right. The Doctor told me to see the university nutritionist about it. So here I am. He gave this note for you.
W:Let's see. It says here that you can have up to three grams of sodium a day. One moment. Oh, here's the one. This is the chart of the sodium content of different foods. M:Oh, no! Good-bye potato chips and snack bar hamburgers. W:Yes, and good-bye to processed foods in general.
But you can have almost all fruits and vegetables with a few exceptions like spinach. M:That part's okay, I hate spinach. What worries me is where do I eat. Do I have to eat at the university hospital while my friends eat in the dining hall?
W:Not at all. I'll just call the dining hall manager. He handles all sorts of special menus--low calorie, low cholesterol, diabetic. He see that you don't go over your three grams. M:What if I want to go to a restaurant?
W:Just use your chart and select your food carefully.
M:Thanks a lot. This won't be nearly as bad as I had thought would be.
45 | Page
16) 我觉得太累了
M:I'm so tired I can't see straight.
W:You're been tired a lot lately, haven't you?
M:Well, for the last few weeks I've had to stay up most of the night to observe star configurations for a project for my astronomy class. It's awful, no matter what time I go to bed, I always wake up at six a.m. That's the time I usually get up.
W:Your biological rhythms probably haven't adjusted to your new schedule. I've read that some people have a lot of trouble when their sleep rhythms are interrupted. Even sleeping don't help them.
M:I know, in fact, I've heard that there're now several special treatment centers for sleep disorders across the country; some people sleep too little, some sleep too much, some walk in their sleep.
W:I'd like to find out how they treat problems like that. Maybe you should go to one of those centers.
M:Not me. After next week, my project will be finished and I'll go back to my regular hours. Now, I know for sure that I don't want to be an astronomer.
17) 抱歉打扰您 W:Hi, Ray. M:Oh, hi, Diane.
W:I'm sorry to bother you at supper time.
M:Oh, it's no bother. We just finished eating. Won't you come in? W:I can't. Our little girl Emily has come down with a high fever. M:I'm sorry. Is it serious?
W:I'm not sure yet. We're taking her to the clinic in a little while. M:Is there anything I can do to help?
W:I appreciate your asking. That's why I'm here. M:What can we do for you?
W:While we're at the clinic with Emily, would you mind keeping an eye on the baby? We can't take him along.
M:Be happy to. Is he sleeping?
W:Yes, he fell asleep right after his feeding. And his diapers have just been changed. M:Margie can go over to your place and stay with him, while I finish up the dishes for her. W:We really appreciate your helping us out like this. Sorry for the inconvenience. M:Not at all. Isn't that what neighbors are for?
18) 谢谢您搭我的航班
M:Hello. International Airlines, reservations.
46 | Page
W:Hello. I'm calling to reconfirm my flight to London on Monday. M:Your name, please? W:Mary Lynn.
M:One moment, please. Yes, Mrs. Lynn, your economy-class has been reconfirmed. W:And my connecting flight to Tokyo?
M:According to my monitor, that hasn't yet been confirmed on Air Japan. W:Oh, why is that? I made these reservations last week.
M:These have been some computer problems the last few days, but these are being cleared up now.
W:It's vital that I make that connection. What do you suggest I do?
M:Don't worry, Mrs. Lynn. I have your telephone number here. As soon as the information comes through, I will personally call you back. W:That's very kind of you. Thank you very much.
M:It's my pleasure. And thank you for flying International Airlines.
19) 我希望加入贵公司
M:Good afternoon, Mrs. Keaton.
W:Good afternoon, Mr. Duncan. Please come in and have a seat. M:Thank you.
W:I have been looking through your application. You seem to have many of the qualifications needed for this position, especially experience. M:I have been in computer programming for eight years now. W:Yes, I see. Were you satisfied with your last position, Mr. Duncan?
M:Generally, yes. But to be honest, not entirely. I was with a small, family-owned company, and chances for advancement were very limited.
W:The letter of reference from the president praises your work highly.
M:Mr.Stone gave me a lot of responsibility and I learned a great deal about company operations.
W:Well, we ask for loyalty and hard work from our employees. But we pay well, and opportunities for promotion depend on merit, not just age or seniority. M:I am very interested in working for your firm, Mrs. Keaton.
W:I see. I have a few more applicants to interview today for this position. But at the moment, your chances look very good. We will be in touch with you shortly, Mr. Duncan. M:Thank you for your time, Mrs. Keaton. Good-bye. W:Good-bye.
20)大难不死
47 | Page
W: Did you see that TV program last night about the skydiver? The parachute didn’t open after he jumped off the plane? M: No, I didn’t. Did he die?
W:No. It’s really unbelievable how he can survive from such a free fall. Much less lived to tell about on television. M:What happened?
W: Neither the parachute wasn’t open when it bumped to the ground. When they found him, they thought he was dead. Doctors said he can never walk again. But he proved them wrong.
M: How long was he crue to operating?
W: He spend eighteen months in the hospital while his bones were amended. Most of them were broken.
M: He was no sooner this change?
W: And he was back to jump off the plane again. See, some people do hiss “Oh!” after again.
M: See, some people should do crazy things!
当我被上帝造出来时,上帝问我想在人间当一个怎样的人,我不假思索的说,我要做一个伟大的世人皆知的人。于是,我降临在了人间。
我出生在一个官僚知识分子之家,父亲在朝中做官,精读诗书,母亲知书答礼,温柔体贴,父母给我去了一个好听的名字:李清照。
小时侯,受父母影响的我饱读诗书,聪明伶俐,在朝中享有“神童”的称号。小时候的我天真活泼,才思敏捷,小河畔,花丛边撒满了我的诗我的笑,无可置疑,小时侯的我快乐无虑。
“兴尽晚回舟,误入藕花深处。争渡,争渡,惊起一滩鸥鹭。”青春的我如同一只小鸟,自由自在,没有约束,少女纯净的心灵常在朝阳小,流水也被自然洗礼,纤细的手指拈一束花,轻抛入水,随波荡漾,发髻上沾着晶莹的露水,双脚任水流轻抚。身影轻飘而过,留下一阵清风。

可是晚年的我却生活在一片黑暗之中,家庭的衰败,社会的改变,消磨着我那柔弱的心。我几乎对生活绝望,每天在痛苦中消磨时光,一切都好象是灰暗的。“寻寻觅觅冷冷清清凄凄惨惨戚戚”这千古叠词句就是我当时心情的写照。
最后,香消玉殒,我在痛苦和哀怨中凄凉的死去。
在天堂里,我又见到了上帝。上帝问我过的怎么样,我摇摇头又点点头,我的一生有欢乐也有坎坷,有笑声也有泪水,有鼎盛也有衰落。我始终无法客观的评价我的一生。我原以为做一个着名的人,一生应该是被欢乐荣誉所包围,可我发现我错了。于是在下一轮回中,我选择做一个平凡的人。
我来到人间,我是一个平凡的人,我既不着名也不出众,但我拥有一切的幸福:我有温馨的家,我有可亲可爱的同学和老师,我每天平凡而快乐的活着,这就够了。
天儿蓝蓝风儿轻轻,暖和的春风带着春的气息吹进明亮的教室,我坐在教室的窗前,望着我拥有的一切,我甜甜的笑了。我拿起手中的笔,不禁想起曾经作诗的李清照,我虽然没有横溢的才华,但我还是拿起手中的笔,用最朴实的语言,写下了一时的感受:
人生并不总是完美的,每个人都会有不如意的地方。这就需要我们静下心来阅读自己的人生,体会其中无尽的快乐和与众不同。

“富不读书富不久,穷不读书终究穷。”为什么从古到今都那么看重有学识之人?那是因为有学识之人可以为社会做出更大的贡献。那时因为读书能给人带来快乐。
自从看了《丑小鸭》这篇童话之后,我变了,变得开朗起来,变得乐意同别人交往,变得自信了……因为我知道:即使现在我是只“丑小鸭”,但只要有自信,总有一天我会变成“白天鹅”的,而且会是一只世界上最美丽的“白天鹅”……
我读完了这篇美丽的童话故事,深深被丑小鸭的自信和乐观所折服,并把故事讲给了外婆听,外婆也对童话带给我们的深刻道理而惊讶不已。还吵着闹着多看几本名着。于是我给外婆又买了几本名着故事,她起先自己读,读到不认识的字我就告诉她,如果这一面生字较多,我就读给她听整个一面。渐渐的,自己的语文阅读能力也提高了不少,与此同时我也发现一个人读书的乐趣远不及两个人读的乐趣大,而两个人读书的乐趣远不及全家一起读的乐趣大。于是,我便发展“业务”带动全家一起读书……现在,每每遇到好书大家也不分男女老少都一拥而上,争先恐后“抢书”,当我说起我最小应该让我的时候,却没有人搭理我。最后还把书给撕坏了,我生气地哭了,妈妈一边安慰我一边对外婆说:“孩子小,应该让着点。”外婆却不服气的说:“我这一把年纪的了,怎么没人让我呀?”大家人你一言我一语,谁也不肯相让……读书让我明白了善恶美丑、悲欢离合,读一本好书,犹如同智者谈心、谈理想,教你辨别善恶,教你弘扬正义。读一本好书,如品一杯香茶,余香缭绕。读一本好书,能使人心灵得到净化。书是我的老师,把知识传递给了我;书是我的伙

伴,跟我诉说心里话;书是一把钥匙,给我敞开了知识的大门;书更是一艘不会沉的船,引领我航行在人生的长河中。其实读书的真真乐趣也就在于此处,不是一个人闷头苦读书;也不是读到好处不与他人分享,独自品位;更不是一个人如痴如醉地沉浸在书的海洋中不能自拔。而是懂得与朋友,家人一起分享其中的乐趣。这才是读书真正之乐趣呢!这所有的一切,不正是我从书中受到的教益吗?
我阅读,故我美丽;我思考,故我存在。我从内心深处真切地感到:我从读书中受到了教益。当看见有些同学宁可买玩具亦不肯买书时,我便想到培根所说的话:“世界上最庸俗的人是不读书的人,最吝啬的人是不买书的人,最可怜的人是与书无缘的人。”许许多多的作家、伟人都十分喜欢看书,例如,他半边床上都是书,一读起书来便进入忘我的境界。
书是我生活中的好朋友,是我人生道路上的航标,读书,读好书,是我无怨无悔的追求。
一个人的谈吐有没有“味道”,完全要看他的读书方法。如果读者获得书中的“味”,他便会在谈吐中把这种风味表现出来;如果他的谈吐中有风味,他在写作中也免不了会表现出风味来。
所以,我认为风味或嗜好是阅读一切书籍的关键。这种嗜好跟对食物的嗜好一样,必然是有选择性的,属于个人的。吃一个人所喜欢吃的东西终究是最合卫生的吃法,因为他知道吃这些东西在消化方面一定很顺利。
读书跟吃东西一样,“此人吃来是蜜糖,他人吃来是砒霜”。教师不能以其所好强迫学生去读,父母也不能希望子女的嗜好和他们一样。如果读者对他所读的东西感不到趣味,那么所有的时间全都浪费了。
所以,永远记得,这世间上没有什么一个人必读的书,只有在某时某地,某种环境,和生命中的某个时期必读的书。读书和婚姻一样,是命运注定的或阴阳注定的。
纵使某一本书,如《圣经》之类,是人人必读的,读这种书也一定应当在合适的时候。当一个人的思想和经验还没有达到阅读一本杰作的程度时,那本杰作只会留下不好的滋味。

孔子曰:“五十以学《易》。”便是说,四十五岁时候尚不可读《易经》。孔子在《论语》中的训言的冲淡温和的味道,以及他的成熟的智慧,非到读者自己成熟的时候是不能欣赏的。
四十学《易》是一种味道,到五十岁,看过更多的人世变故的时候再去学《易》,又是一种味道。所以,一切好书重读起来都可以获得益处和新乐趣。 多读书,可以让你觉得有许多的写作灵感。可以让你在写作文的方法上用的更好。在写作的时候,我们往往可以运用一些书中的好词好句和生活哲理。让别人觉得你更富有文采,美感。
多读书,可以让你全身都有礼节。俗话说:“第一印象最重要。”从你留给别人的第一印象中,就可以让别人看出你是什么样的人。所以多读书可以让人感觉你知书答礼,颇有风度。
多读书,可以让你多增加一些课外知识。培根先生说过:“知识就是力量。”不错,多读书,增长了课外知识,可以让你感到浑身充满了一股力量。这种力量可以激励着你不断地前进,不断地成长。从书中,你往往可以发现自己身上的不足之处,使你不断地改正错误,摆正自己前进的方向。所以,书也是我们的良师益友。
多读书,可以让你变聪明,变得有智慧去战胜对手。书让你变得更聪明,你就可以勇敢地面对困难。让你用自己的方法来解决这个问题。这样,你又向你自己的人生道路上迈出了一步。
多读书,也能使你的心情便得快乐。读书也是一种休闲,一种娱乐的方式。读书可以调节身体的血管流动,使你身心健康。所以在书的海洋里遨游也是一种无限快乐的事情。用读书来为自己放松心情也是一种十分明智的。
读书能陶冶人的情操,给人知识和智慧。所以,我们应该多读书,为我们以后的人生道路打下好的、扎实的基础!
“书籍是全世界的营养品, 生活里没有书籍, 就好象没有阳光; 智慧里没有书籍, 就好象鸟儿没有翅膀。”([英] 莎士比亚)。“一本新书象一艘船, 带领着我们从狭隘的地方, 驶向生活的无限广阔的海洋。”([瑞士] 凯勒)。“不读书就没有真正的学问,没有也不可能有欣赏能力、文采和广博的见识。……不读书的人就不是一个完人。”([俄] 赫尔岑)。多读书, 可以开阔视野, 增长见识, 启迪智

慧, 可以使自己在工作中有所创造, 有所成就; 多读书, 可以丰富自己的知识宝库, 进一步懂得生活, 可以提高自己的文采和对艺术的欣赏能力, 可以变“下里巴人”为“阳春白雪”, 从而使自己的生活更加丰富多采, 充满情趣。 “书是随时在近旁的顾问, 随时都可以供给你所需要的知识, 而且可以按照你的心意, 重复这顾问的次数。”(凯勃司)。知识就是力量, 科学技术就是生产力。要想建设一个具有高度精神文明的社会主义强国, 没有一定的科学技术水平是不行的; 科学技术仅为少数人所掌握, 也是不行的, 尤其是在科学技术高度发达的今天, 更是如此。而要想让所有的人都上学学习, 是不可能的。那么, 就只有在工作中学习,利用一切可以利用的时间和条件自学。在自学过程中, 不可能人人都能得到指导老师, 那么, 最好的老师就是书籍。 “书籍蜿蜒伸入我们的心灵, 诗人的诗句在我们的血流里舒缓地滑行。我们年轻时诵读它们, 年老时仍然铭记它们。我们读到他人的遭遇, 却感到身历其境。书籍到处可得, 而且价廉物美。我们就象呼吸空气中的氧一样吸收书中的营养。”([英] 哈慈利特)。读书有这样多的好处, 而书籍又可随时随地买到, 并且花钱不多; 时间, 工作之余也是足够的; 精力, 20岁左右的小伙子和姑娘们是充沛的。这种年龄, 记忆力旺盛, 分析判断能力也已达到一定程度, 且无家室之累, 正是集中精力学习知识的黄金时代, 千万不要白白地浪费掉。中国有句古话: “少壮不努力,老大徒伤悲”。待到自己在曲折的人生中悟出应该多学本事的道理, 想学的时候, 由于年龄的增长, 记忆力衰退, 由于家庭的重负, 精力集中不起来, 那时想学也学不好了。与其那时悔恨终生, 倒不如现在就努力学习。 “学海无涯勤是岸, 云程有路志是梯”, “勤奋能点燃智慧的火苗, 懒惰是埋葬天才的坟墓”。“业精于勤, 荒于嬉; 行成于思, 毁于随。”([唐] 韩愈)。成功的喜悦, 永远都是只属于那些勤奋好学, 勇于攀登的人们。“如果你们, 年轻的人们, 真正希望过‘很宽阔, 很美好的生活’, 就创造它吧, 和那些正在英勇地建立空前未有的、宏伟的事业的人手携手地去工作吧。”([苏] 高尔基)。为了能够工作得更好和生活得更美好, 读书学习吧, 年轻的朋友! 古人云:“书中自有黄金屋,书中自有颜如玉。”可见,古人对读书的情有独钟。其实,对于任何人而言,读书最大的好处在于:它让求知的人从中获知,让无知的人变得有知。读史蒂芬?霍金的《时间简史》和《果壳中的宇宙》,畅游在粒子、生命和星体的处境中,感受智慧的光泽,犹如攀登高山一样,瞬间眼前呈现出仿佛九叠画屏般的开阔视野。于是,便像李白在诗中所写到的“庐山秀出南斗旁,屏风九叠云锦张,影落明湖青黛光”。 对于坎坷曲折的人生道路而言,读书便是最佳的润滑剂。面对苦难,我们苦闷、彷徨、悲

伤、绝望,甚至我们低下了曾经高贵骄傲的头。然而我们可否想到过书籍可以给予我们希望和勇气,将慰藉缓缓注入我们干枯的心田,使黑暗的天空再现光芒?读罗曼?罗兰创作、傅雷先生翻译的《名人传》,让我们从伟人的生涯中汲取生存的力量和战斗的勇气,更让我们明白:唯有真实的苦难,才能驱除罗曼谛克式幻想的苦难;唯有克服苦难的悲剧,才能帮助我们担当起命运的磨难。读海伦?凯勒一个个真实而感人肺腑的故事,感受遭受不济命运的人所具备的自强不息和从容豁达,从而让我们在并非一帆风顺的人生道路上越走越勇,做命运真正的主宰者。在书籍的带领下,我们不断磨炼自己的意志,而我们的心灵也将渐渐充实成熟。 读书能够荡涤浮躁的尘埃污秽,过滤出一股沁人心脾的灵新之气,甚至还可以营造出一种超凡脱俗的娴静氛围。

合理分配自我介绍的时间前文说过,自我介绍一般也就持续1—3分钟,所以应聘者得合理分配时间。常规安排是:第一段用于表述个人基本情况,中段重点谈自己的工作经历或社会实践经验,最后展望下自己的职位理想。但如果自我介绍被要求在1分钟完成,应聘者就要有所侧重,突出最有料的一点。在实践中,有些应聘者试图在短短的时间内吐露自己的全部经历,而有些应聘者则是三言两语就完成了自我介绍,这些都是不明智的做法。 57 | Page
突出和应聘职位相关的信息自我介绍的内容不宜太多的停留在诸如姓名、教育经历等部分上,因为面试官可以在应聘者的简历上一目了然地看到这些内容。应聘者应该在自我介绍时选择一至两项跟自己所应聘的职位相关的经历和成绩作简述,以证明自己确实有能力胜任所应聘的工作职位。一个让人更有机会在面试中出彩的方法是在做一段自我介绍后适当停顿。比如在“我曾在大学期间组织过有2000人参与的大型校园活动”之后的停顿可能会引导面试官去问“那是什么样的活动呢?”,这样做的目的是为面试的深入打下基础。 58 | Page
一切以事实说话在证明自己确实有能力胜任所 应聘的工作职位时,应聘者可以使用一些小技巧,如介绍自己做过的项目或参与过的活动来验证某种能力,也可以适当地引用老师、同学、同事等第三方的言论来支持自己的描述。而这一切的前提是以事实为基础,因为自吹自擂一般是很难逃过面试官的眼睛的,一旦被发现掺假,基本预示着应聘者将被无情“秒59 | Page
