1、Four short words sum up what has lifted most successful individuals above the crowd: a little bit more.-author-date英语专业四级听写50篇(完整版)英语专业四级听写50篇英语专业四级听写50篇前 言听写在英语专业四级统考中占有15的比重,是考试的重要组成部分。说起听写,正在准备和已经参加过英语专业四级考试的同学会说:“我能明白听写的内容,可写的时候就是跟不上!”“短文大意我明白,可是有的语我不会写。”这只反映出了问题的两个方面。一是听写速度不够快。二是词汇量不够或词汇掌握得不够准确
2、。这些无疑是影响听写成绩的重要因素。但是,这些不是问题的全部。在从事听写教学及听写问卷过程中,很容易发现学生失分的具体问题:(1)没听懂,没听好,听写速度跟不上,写出的内容断断续续不连贯,学生因此大量失分;(2)有的词汇没听懂,拼写不够准确,这导致听写失分;(3)时态错误导致失分;(4)单复数不准确导致失分;(5)没有注意断句或专有名词,句子开头单词或专有名词错误使用大小写导致失分;(6)没有注意原文冠词的使用,书写时漏掉冠词导致失分;(7)没有注意单数第三人称形式导致失分;(8)没有注意单数复数名词的形式导致失分。上述问题的产生有的是缺乏训练造成的,如书写速度跟不上。有的则是语言基础较差造成
3、的,如听力较差没有完全听懂或没有掌握好词汇。而单复数、大小写、冠词漏写等则多是粗心大意造成的。听写部分能提高吗?当然能!而且提高的空间很大。笔者从事英语专业基础教学与研究,从一开始所带的教学班参加四级考试超过全国院校平均通过率282个百分点,超过全国专业外语院校平均通过率125个百分点开始,所带的教学班在全国英语专业级统考中通过率始终ito,平均成绩、优秀率始终名列前茅。最近一次所带的教学班参加四级统考,又考出了很好的成绩,通过率超过全国院校平均水平26石个百分点,超过全国专业外语院校136个百分点,而且在十几个平行班中平均成绩是最高的,优秀人数也是最多的。在四级考试中,听写一项的成绩也不例外
4、,每次均位居第一,本项目满分15分,所带班级平均成绩能够达到14分。是不是学生基础很好?统计表明,和平行班相比所带班级入学时并不存在什么特别优势。教学经验表明,听写成功的关键是训练方法和体现训练方法的训练材料。听写训练过程中无论是老师还是学生都有必要注意以下几点:二扭握淤轿肘虚度 大纲要求第一遍用正常速度朗读,即每分钟120个词,第M遍和第三遍用稍慢的速度朗读让学生书写,第四遍用正常速度朗读让学生检查。但是在训练时则不必严格按照规定进行,也可以适当加快速度,这样可以提高学生的适应能力。2级叙间愿村周 大纲规定第二、第三遍的间隔为15秒。但在训练时一定要尽可能缩短间隔,这样可以增加学生的紧迫感,
5、有利于书写速度的提高。3坚持虚旬洲综 虽然大纲规定读完句子或分句可以出现停顿间隔,但在训练时最好整句训练,不在或少在分句之后停顿。这样有利于训练学生对整句的理解和记忆,克服听见一词写一词的不良习惯,提高书写的速度。4坚并店荫洲弟 四级听写失分很多时候是源于细小的问题。听写训练的检查环节非常重要,学生务必认真检查书写的内容,检查出时态、拼写、单复数、冠词、大小写、单数第三人称等各种失误,反省失误的原因,这样可以促使学生不断总结经验,有针对性地克服缺点,不断进步。5所写洲忽 听写训练是一种综合语言训练,它能够训练学生的听力理解能力,它能够暴露学生的语言问题,它能起到巩固语言知识和提高语言技能的作用
6、。学生的时态、冠词、大小写、单复数等语言知识的漏洞在听写中会暴露无遗,学生的听辨技能、拼写技能及组织句子的技能会得到综合训练。因此,增加听写训练量不仅有助于听写成绩的提高,更重要的是它能提高学生的综合语言技能。在注意方写工整 卷面情况是影响主现测试的因素之一。书写训练过程中一定要注意整洁清晰,从一开始就要训练用圆珠笔或钢笔按要求书写,训练一遍书写整齐工整的能力。Passage 1Town and Country Life in EnglandThere is a big difference between town life and country life in England.
