一、Study Skills Tutorial听力原文:
TUTOR:Ah Caroline...
come on in.
Sit down.
CAROLINE:Thanks.
TUTOR:So how's the dissertation planning going?
CAROLINE:Well Dr.Schulmann,I’m still having a lot of trouble deciding on a title.
TUTOR:Well,that's perfectly normal at this stage.
And this is what your tutorials will help you to do.
CAROLINE:Right.
TUTOR:What we'll do is jot down some points that might help you in your decision.
First of all,you have chosen your general topic area,haven't you?
CAROLINE:Yes,it's the fishing industry.
TUTOR:Oh yes,that was one of the areas you mentioned.
Now,what aspects of the course are you good at?
CAROLINE:Well.
I think I'm coping well with statistics,and I'm never bored by it.
TUTOR:Good.
Anything else?
CCAROLINE:Well,I found computer modelling fascinating-I have no problem following what's being taught,whereas quite a few of my classmates find it difficult.
TUTOR:Well,that's very good.
Do you think these might be areas you could bring into your dissertation?
CAROLINE:Oh yes,if possible.
It's just that I'm having difficulty thinking how I can do that.
You see I feel I don't have sufficient background information.
TUTOR:I see.
Well,do you take notes?
CAROLINE:I’m very weak at note-taking.
My teachers always used to say that.
TUTOR:Well,I think you really need to work on these weaknesses before you go any further.
CAROLINE:What do you suggest?
TUTOR:Well,I can go through the possible strategies with you and let you decide where to go from there.
CAROLINE:Okay,thanks.
TUTOR:Well,some people find it helpful to organise peer-group discussions—you know,each week a different person studies a different topic and shares it with the group.
CAROLINE:Oh right.
TUTOR:It really helps build confidence,you know,having to present something to others.
CAROLINE:I can see that.
TUTOR:The drawback is that everyone in the group seems to share the same ideas...
they keep being repeated in all the dissertations.
CAROLINE:Okay.
TUTOR:You could also try a service called'Student Support'.
It's designed to give you a structured programme over a number of weeks to develop your skills.
CAROLINE:Sounds good.
TUTOR:Yes,unfortunately there are only a few places.
But it's worth looking into.
CAROLINE:Yes,of course.
I know I've got to work on my study skills.
TUTOR:And then there are several study skills books you can consult.
CAROLINE:Right.
TUTOR:They'll be a good source of reference but the problem is they are sometimes too general.
CAROLINE:Yes,that's what I've found.
TUTOR:Other than that I would strongly advise quite simple ideas like using a card index.
CAROLINE:Well,yes,I've never done that before.
TUTOR:It's simple,but it really works because you have to get points down in a small space.
Another thing I always advise is don't just take your notes and forget about them.
Read everything three times-that'll really fix them in your mind.
CAROLINE:Yes,I can see it'd take discipline but...
TUTOR:Well,if you establish good study skills at this stage they'll be with you all your life.
CAROLINE:Oh yes,I completely agree.
It’s just that I don't seem to be able to discipline myself.
I need to talk things over.
TUTOR:Well,we'll be continuing these tutorials of course.
Let's arrange next month's now.
Let's see,I can see you virtually any time during the week starting 22nd January.
CAROLINE:What about the 24th?
I'm free in the afternoon.
TUTOR:Sorry.
I'm booked then.
What about the following day?
CAROLINE:Thursday?
I can make the morning.
TUTOR:Fine,we'll go for the 25th then.
CAROLINE:That's great,thanks.
二、Study Skills Tutorial听力中文翻译:
导师:啊,卡罗琳。
进来吧。
坐下来
卡罗琳:谢谢。
导师:论文计划进行得怎么样?
卡罗琳:嗯,舒尔曼博士,我在决定一个头衔上仍然有很多困难。
导师:嗯,这在现阶段是很正常的。
这就是你的教程将帮助你做的。
卡罗琳:对。
导师:我们要做的是记下一些可能有助于你做出决定的要点。
首先,你已经选择了你的主题领域,不是吗?
卡罗琳:是的,是渔业。
导师:哦,是的,那是你提到的领域之一。
现在,你擅长这门课程的哪些方面?
卡罗琳:嗯。
我认为我能很好地处理统计数据,而且我从来不会对它感到厌倦。
导师:很好。
还有别的吗?
CCAROLINE:嗯,我发现计算机建模很吸引人——我很容易理解所教的内容,而我的很多同学觉得很难。
导师:那很好。
你认为这些可能是你可以纳入论文的领域吗?
卡罗琳:哦,是的,如果可能的话。
只是我很难思考如何才能做到这一点。
你看,我觉得我没有足够的背景资料。
导师:我明白了。
嗯,你做笔记吗?
卡罗琳:我记笔记很差。
我的老师总是这么说。
导师:嗯,我认为在你进一步研究之前,你真的需要解决这些弱点。
卡罗琳:你有什么建议?
导师:好吧,我可以和你一起讨论可能的策略,让你决定从哪里开始。
卡罗琳:好的,谢谢。
导师:嗯,有些人觉得组织同龄人小组讨论很有帮助——你知道,每周都有不同的人学习不同的主题,并与小组分享。
卡罗琳:哦,对了。
导师:这真的有助于建立信心,你知道,必须向别人展示一些东西。
卡罗琳:我看得出来。
导师:缺点是小组中的每个人似乎都有相同的想法。
它们在所有的论文中不断重复。
卡罗琳:好的。
导师:你也可以尝试一种叫做“学生支持”的服务。
它旨在为您提供一个为期数周的结构化课程,以培养您的技能。
卡罗琳:听起来不错。
导师:是的,遗憾的是只有几个地方。
但这是值得研究的。
卡罗琳:当然可以。
我知道我必须提高我的学习技能。
导师:还有几本学习技巧书你可以参考。
卡罗琳:对。
导师:它们是很好的参考资料来源,但问题是它们有时太笼统了。
卡罗琳:是的,这就是我发现的。
导师:除此之外,我强烈建议使用卡片索引等简单的想法。
卡罗琳:嗯,是的,我以前从未这样做过。
导师:这很简单,但它确实有效,因为你必须在一个小空间内获得分数。
我一直建议的另一件事是,不要只记笔记就忘了。
每件事都读三遍,这会在你的脑海中留下深刻的印象。
卡罗琳:是的,我知道这需要纪律,但。
导师:嗯,如果你在这个阶段建立了良好的学习技能,它们将伴随你一生。
卡罗琳:哦,是的,我完全同意。
只是我似乎无法约束自己。
我需要好好谈谈。
导师:嗯,我们当然会继续这些教程。
我们现在就安排下个月的吧。
让我想想,从1月22日开始的一周中,我几乎可以在任何时候见到你。
卡罗琳:24号怎么样?
我下午有空。
导师:对不起。
那我就被预订了。
第二天呢?
卡罗琳:星期四?
我可以安排早上。
导师:好的,那么我们就去25号。
卡罗琳:太好了,谢谢。

五、Study Skills Tutorial听力答案解析
21.fishing industry topic是定位词和定性词。录音中男士问了topic之后,女士直接给出答案,此题难度较低。
22.statistics strengths和computer modelling是定位词和定性词。录音中的coping well with对应卷面上的strengths。
23.note-taking weaknesses,background information和skills是定位词和定性词。录音中的very weak at同义替换为卷面上的weaknesses;另外,note先后出现两次(问的人说一次,答的人说一次),根据“重复出答案”原则,note-taking是答案。
注意note-taking中间的连字符号必须有,没有的话,note taking整体是一个动名词短语;而实际上,空格中需要填入一个形容词性的词,修饰后面的skills。
24.confidence benefits和peer group discussion是定位词;increases决定空格中应填名词。录音中的really helps build中的really强调接下来说的是事实,考生应该注意此处可能会有答案出现;录音中的helps build同义替换为卷面上的increases,其后的confidence即为答案。
25.ideas the same是定位词和定性词,所以空格中要填名词。录音中的drawback同义替换为卷面上的problems,原文中的same与卷面中的same重合,由此可知其后的ideas即为答案。
26.student support service是定位词。录音中的also是节奏提示,告诉考生接下来给出的是前文的并列成分,也就是答案。
27.places空格前的limited是定性词,决定了空格中要填名词。录音中的a few同义替换为卷面上的limited,其后的place即为答案;另外,之前的unfortunately和only都起强调作用,暗示接下来可能会有答案出现,所以当这样的信号词出现时,考生要格外注意。
28.general空格前的be too是定性词,决定了空格中要填形容词;定位词为problems。录音中说到but the problem时,考生就应该能够预测到答案即将出现,从接下来的is they are sometimes too general不难听出形容词general即为答案。此题难度较低。
29.3 times左侧的recommendations,空格前的card index和read all notes是定位词。录音中的I would strongly advise与卷面上的recommendations为同义替换,所以在听到此句时就应该清楚答案就快出现了,说话者在建议中首先提到的是card index,该词在卷面中已经出现,所以并非答案。当考生听到Another thing I always advise...和take your notes时,就应该知道接下来的内容中一定会出现答案了,所以Read everything three times中的three times即为答案。
30.25空格前的date和空格后的January决定了空格中要填表示日期的数词。注意录音中先出现了22nd January,是老师给的时间范围,即从1月22日开始的那个星期。学生问What about the 24th,但是老师回答的是sorry。接下来老师提议25th,学生表示赞同,所以,最后说的25th才是答案。
