雅思听力题型剑桥例题详解

雅思听力题型剑桥例题详解

以剑桥六第59页的4道句子完成题为例,原题如下:

MARKETING ASSIGNMENT

21.For their assignment, the students must investigate one part of the _________.

22.The method the students must use to collect data is_________.

23.In total, the students must interview_______people.

24.Jack thinks the music preferences of _________listeners are similar.

当面对这样一组题目的时候,首先应该做的是“读懂题,划关键词特别是空前后关键词,预测并标记”。就是说在读懂句子意思的同时要划出关键词来,那么那些词是关键词呢?一般来讲包括有句子的主语谓语宾语,专有名词,术语以及年代和数字。其余的根据做题人自己的感觉也可以略有添减。但是空前后的关键词则是同学们比较容易忽略而以后必须要注意的。 这个划关键词和预测,标记都是同步进行的。

比如21题,主要是讲学生们必须研究什么东西的一部分,关键词可以划下“the students”, “investigate”, “one part of the” 这几个,其中“one part of the”又属于空前后的词汇那么就更要划下并且关注了。这个题不好看出内容来,只能大致猜测是要填学生们要研究的主题,但是是填个名词性的东西这一点应该是明确的,那么就可以在空格里标出 “n” 来提醒自己这个地方等下要填名词。按照这种 方法 ,上面四个题在读完题后应该成为下面的样子——

MARKETING ASSIGNMENT

21.For their assignment, the students must investigate one part of the ___n____.

22.The method the students must use to collect data is ________.

23.In total, the students must interview _______ people.

24.Jack thinks the music preferences of _________listeners are similar.

22题到24题没有标记是因为存在的可能性比较多,需要做题人自己心里面有数,知道有哪些可能性,然后在听到答案的时候立刻做出判断。下面给同学们介绍一下比较有代表性的能帮助大家预测的东西。22题是很有代表性的,属于在be动词比如 is , are , was, were 后面出现了空格了,那么这个空格里一般有三种情况,分别是填形容词(系表结构,描绘一个东西是什么样子的),名词(是什么,22题最后的答案就是说这个方法是什么方法), 动词被动(比如The window is fixed by Peter. 这个句子里就出现了is 后面是 fixed, 就是被 修理 )。

另外23题也很有代表性,属于在可数名词people前面要填东西,那也是有三种可能,分别是形容词,名词(两个名词连用,如ocean bottom), 以及数量词, 比如此23题最后的答案就是一个数讲要访问多少多少人。其余还有,在to 后面——可以加地点表示方位性,比如 “We‘ll have a trip to South Africa next month”。 当然考的最多的是to 后面加动词的原形构成 “to do” 的形式。

On 的后面——可以表示在……上,还可以在学术上表示论……问题,比如 an essay on environment conservation. 另外还要小心的是on的后面还可能出现填day或者date, 其中day是指周几,date是指几月几号,但是前面都是用on 的,比如on Wednesday, on April 13th. 在 in 的后面——可以表示在……里面,在……地方,在……方向上, 比如 in southeast, 还可以表示在某某方面, 比如 a class in money management,an expert in Biology, 特别要小心in 后面可以加年或者月,在听题的过程中可能突然出现,比如 in August, 或者in 1998. 在by的后面——可以表示某种方式,到某某时候为止(比如 by the end of term), 但是最重要的后面直接加人,要注意这个“人”不一定有具体的名字,不一定非得是填个Peter, Anna什么的.

比如在剑桥4第12页的第12题,题目的最后答案是The metal industry was established by local craft*en who lived in the area. 其余还有在for后面一般是加名词性成分表示目的性,在before 和after 后面一般是加 时间。在over / more than 和 under / less than / below 以及 about / around / approximately 后面都是一定加数字的,要特别准备好听到你要的那个数字,比如 “The machine weighs over 20 kilograms.”

接下来要做的第二件事情就是在听题的过程中“跟上关键词,速记下听到的答案,同时向下看一题”。要想跟上题目,要知道填句子题几种常见的出题方法,分别是“照念,替换,省略,倒置”。

所谓照念就是说注意题目里的关键词可能会被念到——比如上面几个句子里的22题原文中在答案出现前就清楚地念到了method 这个词, 同学们可以自己听下这段,在method之后有很清楚的actually这个词, 原文是 “actually we don‘t have a choice, we have to do telephone interviews.”

这样我们就很容易找到了22题的答案——telephone interviews.照念这种形式是填句子题里面最简单的一种,经过练习很容易做出绝大多数来。

所谓替换我想同学们应该比较熟悉,如21题原文中是“We‘ll look at one area of entertainment industry.” 这里面出现了 “look at” 替换 “investigate”, “one area of” 替换 “one part of”, 这就要看同学的词汇积累和听音的反应了,只有能够感觉到这两处替换才可能直接写出21题答案——entertainment industry.这样就对基础不好的同学构成了很大难度。

但是要注意在后两个section里面每个section都会有2,3个非常难是一般同学都做不了的题,这样的题大家尽力而为就是了,做出来就是高分了就很有可能是8分以上了,做不出来说实话太正常了。但是一定要把心态调整好,应该做到绝对跟得上题目,然后能做其中大部分就可以了,而且向下看一二题,永远不要因为一个难题就盯住这个题了,必欲除之而后快似的,反倒把后面几个题都给丢了。这种节奏感,这种从宏观上把握,永远不因为难题而丢掉简单题的心态也必须练出来。

所谓倒置就是要注意填句子题有时候不会老老实实地从第一个词给你念到最后一个词,比如下面这样结构的句子——

…………………………………………………………( )……………。

在这个句子里空格的位置靠后,注意可能先念出空格的答案然后再念空格前面的文字。

那么还有下面这样结构的句子——

……………………( )…………………………………………………………

在这个句子里空格的位置靠前,注意可能先念出该句子后面的文字然后才念出空格的答案。

由于篇幅关系也由于以上的21题到24题并没有出现倒置现象,所以本文不再具体讲这个问题了,同学们只需记住这两种模式然后在实战中自己慢慢体会即可。

所谓省略很有意思,就是题目中空格周围的词汇在放音的时候基本一个也没有出现,连替换的 同义词 也没有,比如刚才的24题,原文还是提到了一个关键词 “music” 的,但是在接下来的一段里空周围的任何词都没有出现,原文是 “Let‘s make it music then.” “Right, what two groups shall we compare and contrast?” “Male and female?” “Most of my female friends like the same music as me. Different age group may show up differences.” 如果同学能把这一段完全听懂,当然能够找到答案——male and female, 问题是由于难度和基础的限制很多人是根本听不懂的,特别是后两个section的填写题目,那怎么办呢?

这就涉及到雅思听力填写类的一个最核心的灵魂问题了——要转变思维,听题的时候首要原则不是去想这句话是什么意思或者这个词是什么意思,而是首要想办法找到哪个词是我要的那个。 基本的原则是找那些简单的清楚的又靠谱的。至于 文章 的大意则可以轻松地能听懂多少听多少。同学们可以自己听听这段, 可以感觉到male and female是念的非常清楚的,而正好这个答案代到题目里面后说的是男女听众的喜好是相似的,也说得通,听题的时候象这样的答案就不妨先写下来。

我的学生里很少出现连着二三个空都没填的现象就是因为平时我对他们这样要求和练习,而连着二三个空不写正是很多考生听力考不到6.5的原因了。

最后填句子题还要注意所填的答案要和题目空格前后已给的词汇在语法上配合恰当。比如以上的22题最后的答案是The method the students must use to collect data is telephone interviews.

很多同学觉得很奇怪这里可以是复数吗?其实这个句子的主谓搭配很好,语法是正确的。 主语是 method, 谓语是is,这样就可以了。这个句子就和 What I want is more opportunities. 这句话是一样的效果。

其实很多填句子题,因为空格前后有词汇,所以是可以看出单复数来的。比如在a great deal of______, a large amount of________ 这个后面填不可数名词; 在a (an) _______ 后面当然是填可数名词单数; 在动词后的空格里,可数名词要么是前面有冠词 a, an 或者the, 要么是以复数形式出现, 比如 Men tend to save for ________. 这个空格答案要么是 a car 要么是 cars, 如果只填成Men tend to save for car. 这根本就是语法错误了。

在动词前的空格则要注意和动词的第三人称单数配合,比如 to show how _____ grow. 在这里答案不可能是crystal, 而是crystals. 请同学们在检查答案的时候再特别注意一下这些问题。

以上就是对句子完成这类的雅思听力题型所做的分析,大家在这些分析当中可以对这一题型的雅思听力做题技巧有所了解了,接下来的工作就是要在自己的雅思听力备考当中对此进行适当的练习,这样才能足够的熟练。

雅思听力难题解析:搭配题

搭配题是选择题的一种变形。在雅思听力中,搭配题所占的比例并不大,也不是每一次考试都考到,但是考的时候一定是连续的4题以上,最多的是连续7题。

一、重要性

搭配题是选择题的一种变形。在雅思听力中,搭配题所占的比例并不大,也不是每一次考试都考到,但是考的时候一定是连续的4题以上,最多的是连续7题。曾经在2021年1月9日的考试中有2个section都考到了这种题型,也就是一共有11题。总的来看搭配题所占比例为6.4%,也就是平均考2.5题(40题中)左右。这种题型是希望拿高分的同学必不可少的一关。

二、难点及应对

阅读速度

既然搭配题是选择题的一种变题,第一个难点自然和选择题类似。对于如何在有限的考试时间看明白大量的信息,是所有考生在考雅思听力所必须面临的一道难关。

如剑6 Test 1 Section 2

Questions 11-16

What change has been made to each part of the theatre?

Choose SIX answers from the box and write the correct letter, A-G, next to questions 11-16.

RIVENDEN CITY THEATRE

Part of the theatre

11 box office ………………………..

12 shop ………………………..

13 ordinary seats ………………………..

14 seats for wheelchair users ………………………..

15 lifts ………………………..

16 dressing rooms ………………………..

通过这道题,我们发现一共6道搭配题,总共需要阅读字数不过才30多个字,许多人就会有疑问了,这些怎么可能看不完呢?这里我们要注意:对于搭配题的最大难度不是在能不能看完这些信息,而是如何能够找到这些信息的关键点,以及内部联系。因此,建议考生在审题的时候一定要仔细阅读选项,并且如果可能的话将选项进行适度的解释,也就是在选项旁标注中文或者符号,这个步骤我称之为:译。如这边选项中的7个选项分别为:2倍、分开的入口、数字减少、空间扩大、替换、加固、临时关门。

再如剑7 Test 1 Section 2

Questions 17-20

What does the speaker say about the following items?

Write the correct letter, A, B or C, next to questions 17-20.

17 barbecues ………………………..

18 toys ………………………..

19 cool boxes ………………………..

20 mops and buckets ………………………..

此题选项较少,因此对于阅读速度要求并不是很高,但是分析清楚选项,我们会发现三个选项的重点为:在帐篷内、在中间、按要求。

语速

搭配题的语速往往较快,并且每题的答案出现的位置较近,因此很有可能在听力的过程中听漏信息。醒考生在平时的练习中应该刻意去练习对于语速较快的内容的把握。值得我们注意的是在搭配题中,题干信息往往并不是很多,并且会在听力材料中读出来。

如剑7 Test 1 Section 2的文字答案:

When it comes to our tents, these are equipped to the highest standard. We really do think of every essential detail. From an oven and cooking rings fuelled by bottled gas, to mirrors in the bedroom areas. If you don't want to cook indoors, you can borrow a barbecue if you ask in advance for one to be made available, and there's even a picnic blanket to sit on outside your tent. Inside, a box of games and toys can be found, and children's tents can be hired if required. All tents have a fridge, and if you want to spend the day on the beach, for example, ask for a specially designed PS Camping cool box, which will keep your food and drinks chilled. There are excellent washing facilities at all our sites, with washing machines and clothes lines in the central areas, along with mops and buckets in case your tent needs cleaning during your stay. All sites have a cafe and/or a shop for those who'd rather ‘eat in’ than dine at a local restaurant.

这里每一个答案之间的间隔很小,在听力过程中很有可能会听漏而导致失分。这边需要把握住的就是题干信息,通过这题我们可以很清楚的发现,题干信息基本上都是名词的内容,而在文字答案中这些信息并没有任何的变动。这步我称之为:定。

同义词互换

当能够合理的定位到信息点后,同义词互换就是我们最终需要去找到的信息。

如剑6 Test 1 Section 2 13-15的文字答案:

... Yes, we've increased the leg-room between the rows. This means that there are now fewer seats but we've sure audience will be much happier. And we've installed air conditioning, so it won't get so hot and stuffy. We already ha a few seats which were suitable for wheelchair users, and now there are twice as many, which we hop will meet demand. Something else that will benefit audiences is the new lifts. The two we used to have were very *all and slow. They've now gone, and we've got much more efficient ones. ...

和上面一篇一样这边的几个定位词——seats, wheelchair和lift不难找到。通过这几个词语我们也能顺理成章的找到答案词语——fewer, twice, gone,通过同义词互换答案也很快出来了,分别是——数字减少C,2倍A和替换E。

我们再看到一个例子:

剑5 Test 4 Section 4

Questions 37-40

Which section of the university will help postgraduate students with their dissertations in the following ways?

A the postgraduate’s own department or tutor

B library staff

C another section of the university

Write the correct letter, A, B or C, next to questions 37-40.

37 training in specialized computer programs ………………………..

38 advising on bibliography presentation ………………………..

39 checking the draft of the dissertation ………………………..

40 providing language support ………………………..

Tapescripts

Some of you may be interested to know that the library is offering specialised training sessions on writing a dissertation. Obviously this is not relevant to those of you who are undergraduates; it is just for postgraduates. Your department will discuss the planning stage of the dissertation - i.e. what you're going to do - with you and we will focus on the structure of it. However, the training will also include some time on the computers. I realise most of you know how to organise files but we can show you the different ways to run data programmes. Your tutors will tell you at the outset how to set out the chapters they require but you will need to ask them how they would like you to organise the bibliography because it varies depending on your subject area. When you've got something together the trainer here will took through the draft version for you to see if it's OK. And, one final point, for those of you who have registered from abroad, we can offer individual sessions on dissertations if you feel you need them. If you require language lessons then they are available from the International Centre next to the Law Department.

这个题目审题并不是很困难,首先3个选项译为:导师,图书馆员工和其他。4道题的定位点并不难,但是由于文中将library staff同义转换为trainer/training,而且语速也非常快,导致在听到此题的时候,很难把握信息。最终只好放弃。

总的来说,搭配题在考试里面算是比较难的一种类型,由于语速以及陷阱比较隐蔽,导致丢分很多。因此,议考生在做这种题目的时候要做好译(选项的翻译),定(题干的定位)和换(听力时的同意互换),做对这些难题也不是不可能。

雅思听力题型介绍之简答题

一提到简答题,很多考生的第一反应是:是不是要归纳或 总结 了?在雅思考试中,其答案是否。秉承着“所听即所得”这一传统雅思听力原则,雅思听力考试中的简答题,即Short-answer Question,较之其他题型要来得简单点。

一、简答题题型介绍:

You are required to answer questions. And you need to know what kind of information they are asking for, and then write the proper words.

这一题型也是属于比较常规的题型。只是要注意字数的限定。

简答题题干指令明确,容易定位

答案通常直接,而且简短

大部分简答题的暗示比较明显,考生应该在预览问题或格式的同时便可预测答案的相关信息。

{典型范例}:

Which countries are affected by Britain’s pollution?

范例剖析:这个问题明显暗示考生答案有不止一个国家。

Which country relies heavily on nuclear power?

范例剖析: 而这道题的答案只有一个国家。

二. 解题技巧

在答题时,同其他填空题一样,首先要看清题目要求,通常也是NO MORE THAN THREE/FOUR WORDS这类字数限定性质的。

接着划出定位词及关键词,若时间允许,尝试看懂句意。简答题关键词通常定义为疑问代词,比如when、where、what、who、why、how等。同时,寻找并判断关键词相关的具体内容,如时间、地点、人名、学科等以便于帮助精确定位。

{典型范例}:

1) For which subject does Mr Burrows need a software program?

2) Where does Mr Burrows work?

3) Which exam are his students studying for?

4) Why is Mr Burrows offering this class?

5) How many modules does the course have?

6) What will Rose post to Mr Burrows?

7) How many days will it take to arrive?

8) On what street does Mr Burrows live?

9) What is Mr Burrow’s post code?

10) What is Rose’s extension number?

范例剖析:第一题关键词是which,而延伸关键词是subject,听题时重点要搜寻的是学科,且留意software programme的出现,此处答案为Mathematics。

第二题关键词是where,考点是地点,而Mr Burrows也是延伸关键点。

第三、第四和第六题较为简单,分别是考试种类、学习原因和所要寄的东西。

第五、七、八、九和十题也均为基础考点内容。五、七和十为纯数字考点,第八题为地址考点,注意大小写,第九题postcode为数字加字母考点,注意字母大小写,如此题答案为NSW 2000。

{温馨提示}: 第五题中的module意为单元,第十题中的extension number意为分机号。

除了以上特征,简答题出现在不同的section,考生在审题时候的侧重点略有不同:

若简答题出现在一、三部分

也就是听力材料为对话形式,注意疑问词是否重现,很多时候题目和录音中的发问是一致的,随后要注意一问一答之间的逻辑关系,特别是否定、更正、重复类信息的出现。

{温馨提示}:否定、让步信息通常为干扰信息,非正确答案所在;

转折、更正、重复和建议类信息通常是答案的聚集点

常见的一些否定关系词有,如表示最高频的 no和not,还有诸如none、never、hardly、rather than, instead of,让步关系词如although、despite等,而在一系列的转折词中,属but最高频,建议类的常见表达有let’s、what about等。

在对话形式的简答题中,有一组隐性的带让步和否定的常见句式:如I meant to(我本来打算……)、I planned to(我本计划……)、I used to (我过去常常……)。像类似这样一些句式其后面跟的内容肯定不是答案所在,我们可以认定为是干扰信号句式。

{典型范例}:

Which weekend do the girls decide to go?

范例原文: Maria: When shall we start?

Peter: What about next weekend?

Maria: No, I can't - I'm going on a geography field trip.

Peter: ....and then it's the weekend before the exams and I really need to study.

Maria: OK, then. Let's make it the one after the exams.

Peter: Fine - we'll need a break by then. Can you ring and ...

范例剖析: 范例中,Peter说到what about… 时应提高警惕,但是随即Maria有了否定词no,接着又出现了let’s这一建议信号词,而对话中没有听到对这一建议的否定,回答是fine,因此,此题的答案就是let’s信号词后方的after the exams。

当简答题出现在二、四两个部分

此时听力材料为独白、讲座形式,新东方网雅思频道建议考生可以尝试先把疑问句换成陈述句结构,注意找出的定位词的出现。在听题过程中,要注意题目和录音中说话者的反问句和设问句是否相一致。

{温馨提示}: 由于独白部分基本没有互动性,有时候说话者会自问自答,此时答案出处雷同于对话形式下的简答题。

就题目本身而言,如果存在列举的简答题,在听题时则要留意表示并列或递进的连接词的出现,切忌因急着记录自己所认为正确的部分答案而忽略的剩余的。

{温馨提示}:平时的听写练习可以很好的预防这种遗憾情况的出现。

常见的在叠加信息出现时会用到的一些连接词有诸如:either … or、one … the other …、besides、what’s more、then等。

{典型范例}:

What does the company offer in addition to a salary?

范例原文:ENC operates a system of paying a basic salary and then offering a sales commission on top of that.

范例剖析: 看题目时,in addition to其实已经完全可以提醒我们在听时注意叠加信息连接词的出现,原文在salary之后,听到并列词and 和递进连接词then时应很快确定答案即在此类关键信号词之后,而此处的答案为sales commission。

{温馨提示}:其实这类特殊信号词在雅思考试中使用率还是很广的,不一定局限于short answer question题型,也不一定局限于lecture,大家练习过程中应融会贯通,学会灵活使用。

最后,关于简答题誊写时的首字母大小写问题。新东方网雅思频道在此提醒考生,若提问的是专有名词,地名、人名,答案需大写或者给定的example首字母大写了,答案也尽量符合其格式,其余情况首字母无需大写,句末无需添加句号。

{温馨提示}:雅思听力答案填写该大写的地方小写了要算错,没有特殊规律情况下,小写的地方大写了不算错,所以,考生的 保险 做法是首字母均大写!

对于雅思考生来说,剑桥雅思阅读题难不难?下面就和小钟老师一起来看看2023年剑桥雅思阅读真题解析:Thomas Young。

Thomas Young
The Last True Know-It-All
A Thomas Young (1773-1829) contributed 63 articles to the Encyclopedia Britannica, including 46 biographical entries (mostly on scientists and classicists) and substantial essays on "Bridge,” "Chromatics," "Egypt," "Languages" and "Tides". Was someone who could write authoritatively about so many subjects a polymath, a genius or a dilettante? In an ambitious new biography, Andrew Robinson argues that Young is a good contender for the epitaph "the last man who knew everything." Young has competition, however: The phrase, which Robinson takes for his title, also serves as the subtitle of two other recent biographies: Leonard Warren's 1998 life of paleontologist Joseph Leidy (1823-1891) and Paula Findlen's 2023 book on Athanasius Kircher (1602-1680), another polymath.
B Young, of course, did more than write encyclopedia entries. He presented his first paper to the Royal Society of London at the age of 20 and was elected a Fellow a week after his 21st birthday. In the paper, Young explained the process of accommodation in the human eye on how the eye focuses properly on objects at varying distances. Young hypothesized that this was achieved by changes in the shape of the lens. Young also theorized that light traveled in waves and he believed that, to account for the ability to see in color, there must be three receptors in the eye corresponding to the three "principal colors" to which the retina could respond: red, green, violet. All these hypothesis were subsequently proved to be correct.
C Later in his life, when he was in his forties, Young was instrumental in cracking the code that unlocked the unknown script on the Rosetta Stone, a tablet that was "found" in Egypt by the Napoleonic army in 1799. The stone contains text in three alphabets: Greek, something unrecognizable and Egyptian hieroglyphs. The unrecognizable script is now known as demotic and, as Young deduced, is related directly to hieroglyphic. His initial work on this appeared in his Britannica entry on Egypt. In another entry, he coined the term Indo-European to describe the family of languages spoken throughout most of Europe and northern India. These are the landmark achievements of a man who was a child prodigy and who, unlike many remarkable children, did not disappear into oblivion as an *.
D Born in 1773 in Somerset in England, Young lived from an early age with his maternal grandfather, eventually leaving to attend boarding school. He haddevoured books from the age of two, and through his own initiative he excelled at Latin, Greek, mathematics and natural philosophy. After leaving school, he was greatly encouraged by his mother's uncle, Richard Brockle*y, a physician and Fellow of the Royal Society. Following Brockle*y's lead, Young decided to pursue a career in medicine. He studied in London, following the medical circuit, and then moved on to more formal education in Edinburgh, Gottingen and Cambridge. After completing his medical training at the University of Cambridge in 1808, Young set up practice as a physician in London. He soon became a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians and a few years later was appointed physician at St. George's Hospital.
E Young's skill as a physician, however, did not equal his skill as a scholar of natural philosophy or linguistics. Earlier, in 1801, he had been appointed to a professorship of natural philosophy at the Royal Institution, where he delivered as many as 60 lectures in a year. These were published in two volumes in 1807. In 1804 Young had become secretary to the Royal Society, a post he would hold until his death. His opinions were sought on civic and national matters, such as the introduction of gas lighting to London and methods of ship construction. From 1819 he was superintendent of the Nautical Almanac and secretary to the Board of Longitude. From 1824 to 1829 he was physician to and inspector of calculations for the Palladian Insurance Company. Between 1816 and 1825 he contributed his many and various entries to the Encyclopedia Britannica, and throughout his career he authored numerous books, essays and papers.
F Young is a perfect subject for a biography - perfect, but daunting. Few men contributed so much to so many technical fields. Robinson's aim is to introduce non-scientists to Young's work and life. He succeeds, providing clear expositions of the technical material (especially that on optics and Egyptian hieroglyphs). Some readers of this book will, like Robinson, find Young's accomplishments impressive; others will see him as some historians have - as a dilettante. Yet despite the rich material presented in this book, readers will not end up knowing Young personally. We catch glimpses of a playful Young, doodling Greek and Latin phrases in his notes on medical lectures and translating the verses that a young lady had written on the walls of a summerhouse into Greek elegiacs. Young was introduced into elite society, attended the theatre and learned to dance and play the flute. In addition, he was an accomplished horseman. However, his personal life looks pale next to his vibrant career and studies.
G Young married Eliza Maxwell in 1804, and according to Robinson, "their marriage was a happy one and she appreciated his work." Almost all we know about her is that she sustained her hu*and through some rancorous disputes about optics and that she worried about money when his medical career was slow to take off. Very little evidence survives about the complexities of Young's relationships with his mother and father. Robinson does not credit them, or anyone else, with shaping Young's extraordinary mind. Despite the lack of details concerning Young's relationships, however, anyone interested in what it means to be a genius should read this book.

试题分析
Question 1-7
题目类型:True / false /not given
题号定位词文中对应点题目解析
1Other peopleA段第四句“Young has competition, however: The phrase, which Robinson takes for his title, also serves as the subtitle of two other recent biographies: Leonard Warren's 1998 life of paleontologist Joseph Leidy (1823-1891) and Paula Findlen's 2023 book on Athanasius Kircher (1602-1680), another polymath.”该句中明确给出了Young还有其他的竞争者,他们的传记中也同样拥有这样的小标题,分别是Leonard Warren写的关于Joseph Leidy的传记,以及 Paula Findlen's写的关于Athanasius Kircher的传记。
因此,本题答案为True
2all, articlesB段第一、二句B段第一句 “Young, of course, did more than write encyclopedia entries.”明确表示Young所做的远不仅仅是编辑大英百科全书的词条,因此并不是所有的都在百科全书。而在本段第二句中,作者指出,Young在20岁的时候将自己的第一篇论文自荐给伦敦皇家学会,并在一年后成为该学会的会员: He presented his first paper to the Royal Society of London at the age of 20 and was elected a Fellow a week after his 21st birthday。Paper与article为近意思。显然,题干与原文含义相反。
因此,本题答案为False
3likeC段最后一句C段整体是在介绍Young晚年的主要成就,即Young长大后的成就。此外,在C段最后一句中,作者明确指出Young和其他的孩子不同的一点在于,Young并没有像其他那些年少成名而后来江郎才尽的孩子一样,他后来同样取得了非凡的成就: These are the landmark achievements of a man who was a child prodigy and who, unlike many remarkable children, did not disappear into oblivion as an *.句中的unlike为like的反义词,显然题干与原文含义相反。
因此,本题答案为False
4surpassingD段第四、七句D段介绍了Young的成长背景和经历,同时体现出其涉猎范围较为广泛。其中第四句中提到Young决定学医,并且在后面的介绍中指出Young还参加戏剧演出,学习跳舞和吹笛子: He then broke with his Quaker upbringing by attending the theater and learning to dance and play the flute. In addition, he was an accomplished horseman.而在第七句中作者指出Young还是一名杰出的马术师。但是并未指出Young在哪个方面的造诣更高,更有天赋。Surpassing这个概念并没有在文中体现。
因此,本题答案为Not Given
5soughtE段第四句“ His opinions were sought on civic and national matters”,文中表明Young的很多观点关注人民和国家事务。题干与原文含义相同。
因此,本题答案为True
6Interested in, social pastimeF段第七句“We catch glimpses of a playful Young, doodling Greek and Latin phrases in his notes on medical lectures and translating the verses that a young lady had written on the walls of a summerhouse into Greek elegiacs.”文中指出,通过Young的医学演讲中乱写的希腊字母和拉丁短语以及将一位年轻女性写在凉亭上的诗歌翻译成希腊挽歌便能看出他的幽默。显然,Young对于这样的社交娱乐是感兴趣的。题干和原文相符合。
因此,本题答案为True
7disease, later yearsC段第一句,G段第一句C段第一句给出了“later in his life,”但是本段近讲述了Young晚年在学术方面的成就;G段给出了Young的婚后生活,以及Robinson在书中并未提及Young与父母间的关系。但无论哪一个点都没有提及其晚年饱受某种疾病之苦。
因此,本题答案为Not Given
题目类型:Short-answer question
8life storiesA段第一句“Thomas Young (1773-1829) contributed 63 articles to the Encyclopedia Britannica, including 46 biographical entries (mostly on scientists and classicists)…”该剧中的“biographical entries”指传记词条,与题干中的life stories表示相同涵义。
因此,本题答案为46
9first academic paperB段第三句“In the paper, on how the eye focuses properly on objects at varying distances, Young hypothesized that deformation of the crystalline lens accomplished the accommodation.”B段段首表明,Young将自己的第一篇论文自荐给了伦敦皇家学会学会。因此本段讨论的是其第一篇论文。而本段第三句指出,在这篇论文中,Young主要讨论了人类眼球的调节机制
因此,本题答案为humaneye或human eye accommodation
10a group of languagesC段第五句“In another entry, he coined the term Indo-European to describe the family of languages spoken throughout most of Europe and northern India.”该句指出,Young创造了术语 Indo-European来描述在欧洲大部分地区以及北印度使用的语言。
因此,本题答案为Indo-European
11inspire, medical studiesD段第四句D段前面介绍了Young童年时期的生活背景。本段第四句中则指出:“Following Brockle*y's lead, Young decided to pursue a career in medicine.”。显然,正是因为 Richard Brockle*y的引导,Young才决定在医学方面有所建树。
因此,本题答案为 Richard Brockle*y
12teaching positionE段第二句“ Earlier, in 1801, he had been appointed to a professorship of natural philosophy at the Royal Institution”,题干中的teaching position与E段第二句中的professorship均表示“教师职位”,该句明确指出,Young作为自然哲学的教授,受聘于英国科学研究所。
因此,本题答案为 Royal Institution
13LondonE段第五句“His opinions were sought on civic and national matters, such as the introduction of gas lighting to London and methods of ship construction.”E段主要介绍了Young作为自然哲学学者取得的成就。而第五句则列举了Young的两个成就,其对于伦敦的所做出的成就在于煤气照明的引入。
因此,本题答案为gas lighting
A我们该怎样理解托马斯·杨(1773-1829)?他是《大不列颠百科全书》中63篇文章的作者,其中包括46篇传记(大部分都是关于科学家和古典学者),和大量关于“桥” “色彩论” “埃及” “语吉” “潮汐”等的论文。一个能够写出这样多有权威性文章的人应该算是一个博学者? 一个天才?还是一个业余兴趣广泛的人呢?在一篇关于他的比较激进的传记中,Andrew Robinson 认为托马斯杨是-位强有力的竞争者能够配得这样的墓志铭“是最后一个知道任何事的人”。但是杨也要面对竞争:因为这样的传记标题Robinson不仅给了他,也作为副标题给了有关另两位学者的传记:Lenard Warren 1998年著的《古生物学家Joseph Leipy的一生》(1823-1891)以及Paula Findlen 2023年著的关于另一位博学者Athanasius Kircher(1602-1680)的传记。
B当然杨的贡献远不止写了很多百科全书上的文章,他在20岁的时候将自己的第一篇论文自荐给伦敦皇家学会,并在他的21岁生日后被评为一周科学人物,杨在该篇论文中解释了人类眼睛的调节机制一一关于眼睛如何通过不同的距离聚焦在物体上。在后面的文章中,他更加全面地探讨了这个问题,类似牛顿,他在自己身上进行了可怕的实验用以获得相关的证据,他还得出这样的理论:光是通过“以太”分子的振动,以波的形式进行传递的,而“以太”是一种假想物质,其存在还存在争议性。他还认为为了能看见颜色,必须要有3个感应器对“三原色”进行感应,而这三种视网膜对其产生感应的颜色就是红,黄,蓝二种颜色。
C在他人生的晚些时候,也就是40多岁的时候,杨试图破解锁在罗塞塔石碑里的未知文字密码,这个石碑是在1799年在埃及被拿破仑的军队发现的,并且从1802年起就在英国博物馆进行展出。该石碑上包含了 3种不同的字母:希腊语,不可辨识的文字以及埃及的象形文字。这种不可辨识的文字现在被认为是正如杨所推断的是很普通的,是和象形文字直接相关的。他最初有关这方面的工作首次出现在他在《大不列颠百科全书》中编纂的词条。在另一个条目中,他创造了术语“Indo-European”来描述在欧洲大部分地区以及北印度使用的语言。这些都是这是这位从小就展露科学天赋并且不像很多孩子后来江郎才尽的科学家获得的里程碑式的成就。
D托马斯·杨出生在英国萨默塞特郡一个虔诚的教友会教徒家庭,从小和他的外公一起长大,最后去了寄宿学校。他两岁的时候就博览群书,并且自学熟练掌握了拉丁语,希腊语,数学以及哲学,在很大程度上他受到了舅舅Richard Brockle*y的鼓励,他的舅舅也是英国皇家学会的一位内科医生。在Brockle*y的引导下,杨决定要在医学方而有所建树,他曾先后在伦敦大学、爱丁堡大学和格丁根大学学习医学,多亏了Brockle*y的引荐,杨进入了英国皇家学会,他最后也打破了从小在教友会的教育,他参加戏剧演出,学习跳舞和吹笛子,此外,他还是一位杰出的马术师。在1808年结束在剑桥大学的医学学习后,杨在伦敦开了一家诊所,很快他就成为皇家内科医生学会的一员,并且几年后成为圣乔治医院的一名内科医生。
E杨作为内科医生的医术却赶不上他作为自然哲学学者或是语言学家取得的成就,早在1801年,他已经被任命为英国皇家学会的教授,他每年要在那里举办60场的讲座。这些讲座在1807年以两本书的形式进行出版。1804年杨就已经成为英国朵家学会的秘书,而他获此殊荣直至去世。他的很多观点关注人民和国家事务,比如说在伦敦引进煤气照明和造船方法。从1819年起,他就是航海天文年历的主要负责人,也是Board of Longitude的秘书。从1824年到1829年,他担任Palladian 保险公司的精算师和内科医生。在1816年和1825年间,他为《大不列颠百科全书》编纂了许多词条,而且穷其一生著作,论文无数。
F我们通过杨在医学课上胡乱写的希腊字母和拉丁文短语以及他将一位年轻的女士写在避暑山庄墙上的诗句翻译成挽歌可以看出他的幽默,但是他的个人生活也因为自己对工作和研究的全情投入而略显苍白。
G他在1804年和Eliza Maxwell结婚,据Robinson所述“他们的婚姻是幸福的,因为他的夫人欣赏他的工作”。我们对于他夫人的了解仅限于她在她丈夫备受一些关于眼睛的理论方面争议的时候总是坚定地支持他,并且当他的医学生涯开始慢慢起飞的时候,她开始有些担心钱的问题。值得一提的是,杨没有被保护的人,他都是和自己的导师进行互动一一先是他的外公,后是Brockle*y一一还有先于他过失的一些伟人(其中很多是很著名的如牛顿,杨最早在17岁读了他写的书)。但是关于杨和他母亲以及父亲的关系的记述却鲜力人知,Robinson在说到杨的非凡的头脑时也并没有将其归功于他的父母,或许很难有这样的巧合:过去的天才都是由于卓越的父母教育造就的。
