一、feedback on an assignment 托福听力原文：

NARRATOR: Listen to a conversation between a student and his professor.

FEMALE PROFESSOR: This is not what I had in mind when I assigned a film review.

MALE STUDENT: It isn’t?

FEMALE PROFESSOR: No, what you wrote is a synopsis, a detailed summary of the movie, but it's not a review.

MALE STUDENT: It's not? I guess I'm a little confused cause isn't that what a film review does, you know, describe the film?

FEMALE PROFESSOR: Sure, in part, but a good review has to do more. But this is probably not your fault. I’m starting to think that I should've explained the assignment better, because, well, I got a lot of summaries, and very few reviews.

MALE STUDENT: So… it wasn't only me?

FEMALE PROFESSOR: Hardly. I just assumed that everyone would know what to do…

MALE STUDENT: So, um, what else is a review supposed to do?

FEMALE PROFESSOR: Well, it should also analyze the film, discuss its strengths and weaknesses, maybe compare it to other movies, even mention why the reviewer did or didn't like it.

MALE STUDENT: You mean it should've been more personal?

FEMALE PROFESSOR: For starters. Or maybe, “subjective” is a better word than “personal.”Yes, it should’ve been more subjective.

MALE STUDENT: Maybe I could rewrite it? FEMALE PROFESSOR: Well, I don't know about rewriting it. Too many people seem to have missed the point. I think I may have to forgo evaluating this one. Instead, maybe we'll just devote a class to discussing what it takes to write a good film review, or maybe… hmm… you know, I have a colleague who writes film reviews for the local paper. Maybe I could ask her to come to class and describe what she does, and then have everyone rewrite their reviews.

MALE STUDENT: So… she would talk about what a film review should be like, so we'd know what to do?

FEMALE PROFESSOR: Well more than that… a professional film reviewer gets to see movies sometimes before they’ve even been released… they get advance copies, usually a video or DVD, to watch at home. Or they go to a movie as soon as it opens in the theaters.

MALE STUDENT: Umm… Seeing it on the big screen, in a theater, doesn't that affect the experience.

FEMALE PROFESSOR: Of course. Having other people there… can affect the review too… So for the next assignment, I might ask everyone to review one of the films the film club shows every weekend at the theater on campus. There’s no admission charge, they're free to students, and… the movies are shown Friday and Saturday nights, plus Sunday afternoon, so everyone should be able to see one. Yeah, that should work.

MALE STUDENT: But for this time, will we have to rewrite our reviews?

FEMALE PROFESSOR: Well, let's take it one thing at a time. Let me talk to my colleague.

二、feedback on an assignment 托福听力中文翻译：

旁白：听一个学生和他的教授之间的对话。

女教授：这不是我分配电影评论时的想法。

男学生：不是吗？

女教授：不，你写的是电影的大纲，一个详细的摘要，但不是评论。

男学生：不是吗？我想我有点困惑，因为电影评论不是这样描述电影的吗？

女教授：当然，部分是这样，但好的复习还需要做更多的工作。但这可能不是你的错。我开始觉得我应该更好地解释这项作业，因为我有很多摘要，很少有评论。

男学生：那么……不仅仅是我？

女教授：很难。我只是假设每个人都知道该怎么做…

男学生：那么，嗯，复习还应该做什么？

女教授：嗯，它还应该分析这部电影，讨论它的优点和缺点，也许可以将它与其他电影进行比较，甚至提到评论家喜欢或不喜欢它的原因。

男学生：你的意思是应该更个人化一些？

女教授：首先。或者，“主观的”比“个人的”更好是的，应该更主观一些。

男学生：也许我可以重写一下？女教授：嗯，我不知道怎么重写它。太多人似乎没有抓住要点。我想我可能不得不放弃评估这个。相反，也许我们会花一节课来讨论写一篇好的电影评论需要什么，或者……嗯……你知道，我有一个同事为当地报纸写电影评论。也许我可以让她来上课，描述一下她做了什么，然后让每个人重写他们的评论。

男学生：那么……她会谈论电影评论应该是什么样的，这样我们就知道该怎么做了？

女教授：远不止这些……专业的电影评论员有时甚至在电影发行之前就可以看电影了……他们可以提前拿到拷贝，通常是视频或DVD，在家里看。或者他们一上映就去看电影。

男学生：嗯……在大屏幕上，在剧院里看，这不会影响体验。

女教授：当然可以。有其他人在场……也会影响审查……所以在下一次作业中，我可能会要求每个人都审查电影俱乐部每个周末在校园影院放映的一部电影。免费入场，对学生免费，而且……电影在周五和周六晚上放映，再加上周日下午，所以每个人都应该可以看一部。是的，应该有用。

男学生：但这一次，我们必须重写我们的评论吗？

女教授：好吧，让我们一次只做一件事。让我和我的同事谈谈。
