如果所聽內容是對話,那么是在考查考生對不同情景的對話作出反應的能力??忌谛畔⒘看螅抑环乓槐殇浺舻那闆r下善于捕捉關鍵信息。因此,考生應做到在聽錄音之前先快速瀏覽四個選項,明確目的,有的放矢。在聽的過程中考生要熟悉特定環(huán)境中特定的交際語言,尤其要注意聽第二個人的講話內容。一般情況下,答題的關鍵信息通常蘊含在第二個人的講話中。
由于中高級口譯筆試聽力部分Listening and Translation(聽譯)的單句與段落的錄音均只播放一遍,所以考生要用心記住所聽句子和段落,適當記錄數(shù)字、日期、年代和有助于記憶段落主要內容的詞組等。例如,高口2000年3月高級口譯筆試單句聽譯中的第三句:“For the first ten month of this year, bilateral trade volume was 4.1 billion US dollars, which is a 25 percent increase over the same period last year.”這里要記下“first ten months”(最初的10個月)、“4.1 billion
US dollars”(41億美元)、“25 percent increase”(增長25%)等要點。若三個要點記住了,上句就可譯為:今年最初的10個月,雙邊貿易額為41億美元,比去年同期增長25%。
同樣,段落聽譯也要抓住關鍵詞,如2000年3月高級口譯筆試第二段落翻譯:“Police said about five hundred homes were washed away by floods after a typhoon struck the west coast of the island yesterday bringing driving rain and winds of up to eighty miles per hour.”考生不僅要記住此段第一部分的主語 police(警方),還要記住關鍵數(shù)字five hundred homes、eighty miles per hour。這樣此段就可譯為:“警方說臺風昨天襲擊了該島西海岸并帶來大雨,風速達每小時80英里,沖走大約500戶人家?!?/p>
Note-taking and Gap-filling是中級口譯筆試聽力部分沒有的項目,被稱作“筆記”項目。做此項目時同樣要求考生抓住關鍵詞句與實詞,盡可能使用縮略詞、詞首字母等簡要易懂的速記方式??忌鷳嗦犐儆?,抓住文章的主題大意與結構,在試卷發(fā)下后盡可能用所聽到的單詞或相應的同義詞填寫,單詞的拼寫應正確無誤。
考生在聽錄音的時候應重點記錄錄音中反復出現(xiàn)的單詞。如2000年3月高級口譯筆試筆記項目考題,考生開始時聽到:“I'm going to talk about acid rain, a subject which many people have heard of but very few understand fully.”接著又聽到:“I'm going to talk about exactly what acid rain is and why it's a problem and then I'm going to finish off by saying what we can do about it..…”考生聽過兩遍錄音后應對與acid rain有關的詞語引起注意。接著考生又聽到: “So first of all, acid rain is a term that's really being used now for a kind of pollution which is hanging over our heads in a sense - it's the air pollution above us. It's the pollution that's coming down in rain, in mist, in snow, in hail, in many different ways and damaging our forests, our lakes and rivers, our buildings and even human health."
考生應注意聽上述畫線部分的內容,最好用縮略詞記錄。
我們來看聽后發(fā)下的試題:
Acid rain is a kind of___(1) pollution which is hanging over our heads and coming down in many different ways such as rain and___(2). It damages___(3), lakes and rivers, buildings and even human___(4).
根據(jù)對畫線部分的速記,對于空格(1)應填“air”,若遺忘也可填同義詞“atmosphere”。對于空格(2),根據(jù)所聽內容可知“rain”后有:“mist”,“snow”,“hail”三個詞,但作為詞組應填“snow”。對于空格(3),根據(jù)所聽內容應填“forests”,或同義詞“woods”。對于空格(4),可根據(jù)聽到并記下的重點詞填入“health”。
雖然以上只講了該題20個空格中的4個,但其他空格的解題方法、答題技巧與之完全相同。
