Course Feedback剑桥雅思9听力-原文翻译及答案解析

一、Course Feedback 听力原文：

TEACHER:Before we start, Spiros and Hiroko, thanks for coming in today to talk about your recent study experiences and congratulations to you both in doing so well in your first semester exams!

I'd like to discuss with you the value of the English for Academic Purposes course you did here last year before starting your university course.

Spiros, if I could start with you, what parts of the programme have now proved to be particularly valuable to you?

SPIROS:I think that having to do a seminar presentation really helped me.

For example, a couple of weeks ago in our marketing subject, when it was my turn to give a presentation I felt quite confident.

Of course, I was still nervous but because I had done one before, I knew what to expect.

Also, I know I was well-prepared and I had practised my timing.

In fact, I think that in relation to some of the other people in my group.

I did quite a good job because  my overall style was quite professional.

What about you, Hiroko?

HIROKO:Mmm, that's interesting.

In my group, I was really surprised by the way the students did their presentations - they just read their notes aloud!

Can you believe that?

They didn't worry about their presentation Style or keeping eye contact with their audience - and I remember that these things were really stressed to us in the course here.

TEACHER:So, how did you approach your presentation, Hiroko?

HIROKO:Well, to speak frankly.

I read my notes too!

At the time, it was a relief to do it this way, but actually when I had finished,  I didn't feel any real sense of satisfaction.

I didn't feel positive about the experience at all.

SPIROS:That's a pity.

You know, although I was pleased with my presentation,  I am not so pleased with my actual performance right now in the tutorials - during the whole semester I've not said anything in our tutorial discussions.

Not a word.

HIROKO:Really.

Spiros?

Why's that?

Do the other students talk too much?

SPIROS:It's partly that, but it's mostly because I have had no confidence to speak out.

Their style of speaking is so different - it's not the style we were used to during the course.

They use so many colloquialisms, they're not very polite and sometimes there seems to be no order in their discussion.

Also,  they are very familiar with each other, so because they know each other's habits, they can let each other into the discussion.

HIROKO:You're right, Spiros, I've experienced that too.

HIROKO:For most of this semester, I've said absolutely nothing in tutorials.

But recently,  I've been trying to speak up more and I just jump in, and I've noticed an Interesting thing, I've noticed that if they thought my point was interesting or new, then the next time they actually asked for my opinion, and then it was much easier for me to be part of the discussion

SPIROS:That's great, Hiroko!

I hope that happens for me next semester - in have to work hard to find some Interesting points.

What helped you to find these ideas?

HIROKO:I think that one thing that helped me with this was the reading.

I've had to do so much reading this semester just to help me make sense of the lectures.

At first I couldn't understand what the lecturers were talking about,  so I had to turn to the books and journals.

Every night I read for hours, using the lists of references that were given, and I made pages of notes.

At breakfast, I read and read my notes again.

This habit has helped me to follow the ideas in the lectures, and it's also given me some ideas to use in the tutorials.

SPIROS:But I did so much reading anyway - I don't think there's any time left over for anything extra.

My reading speed is still quite slow, though I'm much better at dealing with vocabulary than I used to be.

TEACHER:What else do you think we could add to the course program to help with this reading problem?

SPIROS:There's not really anything because it's my problem.

I remember we were given long articles to read.

We didn't like that but now I realise that reading those long articles was good preparation for the things I need to read now.

Also, in class we regularly had speed-reading tasks to do, and we kept a record of our reading speed, so the teachers were encouraging us to work on that.

HIROKO:That's true Spiros, but what we read could have been different.

Sometimes in the English class I felt frustrated when I had to read articles about the environment or health or education, because  I wanted to concentrate on my own field, but we didn't read anything about engineering.

So, I think I wasted some time learning vocabulary I didn't need.

TEACHER:But surely the strategies you were taught for dealing with that vocabulary were helpful.

HIROKO:Yes, but psychologically speaking,  I would have felt much better working on reading from my own field.

What do you think Spiros?

SPIROS:I agree;

that would have helped my confidence too and I would have been more motivated.

It was good though that we could work on our own topics when we wrote the research assignments.

TEACHER:Okay, let's move on to writing now ...

二、Course Feedback 听力中文翻译：

老师：在我们开始之前，Spiros和Hiroko，感谢你们今天来谈谈你们最近的学习经历，并祝贺你们两人在第一学期的考试中取得了这么好的成绩！

我想和你讨论一下你去年开始大学课程之前在这里学习的学术英语课程的价值。

斯皮罗斯，如果我可以从你开始，这个项目的哪些部分现在证明对你特别有价值？

斯皮罗斯：我认为做一个研讨会演讲真的对我有帮助。

例如，几周前，在我们的营销主题中，当轮到我做演讲时，我感到非常自信。

当然，我还是很紧张，但因为我以前做过一次，我知道会发生什么。

而且，我知道我已经做好了充分的准备，我已经练习了我的时机。

事实上，我认为这与我团队中的其他一些人有关。

我做得很好，因为我的整体风格很专业。

你呢，Hiroko？

弘子：嗯，那很有趣。

在我的小组里，我对学生们做报告的方式感到非常惊讶——他们只是大声朗读笔记！

你能相信吗？

他们不担心自己的演讲风格，也不担心与观众保持眼神交流，我记得在这里的课程中，这些事情确实给我们带来了压力。

老师：Hiroko，你是怎么做演讲的？

弘子：嗯，坦率地说。

我也读了笔记！

当时，这样做让我松了一口气，但实际上当我完成时，我并没有感到任何真正的满足感。

我对这次经历一点也不乐观。

斯皮罗斯：真遗憾。

你知道，虽然我对自己的演讲很满意，但我对自己目前在教程中的实际表现并不满意——在整个学期的教程讨论中，我都没有说任何话。

一句话也没说。

弘子：真的。

斯皮罗斯？

为什么会这样？

其他学生说得太多了吗？

斯皮罗斯：部分原因是这样，但主要是因为我没有信心说出来。

他们的说话风格非常不同——这不是我们在课程中习惯的风格。

他们使用了太多的口语，他们不太礼貌，有时他们的讨论似乎没有秩序。

此外，他们彼此非常熟悉，因此，因为他们了解彼此的习惯，所以可以让对方参与讨论。

弘子：你说得对，斯皮罗斯，我也经历过。

弘子：这学期的大部分时间，我在辅导课上都没说什么。

但最近，我一直在努力多说点，我只是插嘴，我注意到了一件有趣的事情，我注意到如果他们认为我的观点有趣或新颖，那么下次他们真的征求我的意见时，我就更容易参与讨论了

斯皮罗斯：太好了，弘子！

我希望下学期我能做到这一点，我必须努力找到一些有趣的观点。

是什么帮助你找到了这些想法？

弘子：我想有一件事对我有帮助，那就是阅读。

这学期我不得不读很多书来帮助我理解这些讲座。

起初，我不明白讲师们在说什么，所以我不得不求助于书籍和期刊。

每天晚上，我用给出的参考文献列表阅读几个小时，并做了几页笔记。

早餐时，我一遍又一遍地读笔记。

这个习惯帮助我在课堂上遵循这些想法，也给了我一些在教程中使用的想法。

斯皮罗斯：但不管怎样，我读了这么多书——我觉得没有多余的时间了。

我的阅读速度仍然很慢，尽管我在处理词汇方面比以前好多了。

老师：你认为我们还可以在课程中添加什么来帮助解决这个阅读问题？

斯皮罗斯：其实什么都没有，因为这是我的问题。

我记得我们有很长的文章要读。

我们不喜欢这样，但现在我意识到，读那些长文章是为我现在需要读的东西做好准备的。

此外，在课堂上，我们经常有快速阅读任务要做，并且我们记录了我们的阅读速度，所以老师鼓励我们努力。

弘子：没错，斯皮罗斯，但我们读到的可能会有所不同。

有时在英语课上，当我不得不阅读有关环境、健康或教育的文章时，我感到很沮丧，因为我想专注于自己的领域，但我们没有读任何有关工程的文章。

所以，我想我浪费了一些时间学习我不需要的词汇。

老师：但你所学的处理这些词汇的策略确实很有帮助。

弘子：是的，但从心理上讲，如果我在自己的领域读书，我会感觉好多了。

你觉得斯皮罗斯怎么样？

斯皮罗斯：我同意；

这也会增强我的信心，我会更有动力。

尽管如此，当我们写研究作业时，我们可以在自己的主题上工作，这很好。

老师：好的，我们现在开始写作。

五、Course Feedback 听力答案解析

21． B　考生可以听到 Spiros 对自己 marketing presentation 的评价是 I did quite a good job because my overall style was quite professional。quite professional 对应选项 B 中的 good，由此可知答案为 B（演讲风格很好）。此外，录音中提到了 I was still nervous...，排除 A。C中的 the best 在录音中没有涉及。

22． C　考生听到 Hiroko 在描述其他学生的演讲时用到了 They didn’t worry about their presentation style or keeping eye contact with their audience，其中 keeping eye contact with their audience 对应选项 C 中的 look at the audience enough，由此可知答案为 C（他们没有与观众进行足够多的眼神交流）。

23． B　录音中的 when I had finished 对应题干中的 after she gave her presentation。考生听到 when I had finished 之后，紧接着会听到 Hiroko 说 I didn’t feel any real sense of satisfaction.，didn’t feel any real sense of satisfaction 对应选项 B 中的 dissatisfied，由此可知答案为 B。?

24． A　考生会听到 Spiros 在评价完自己对 presentation 的表现之后 (although I was pleased with my presentation) 说出了 I am not so pleased with my actual performance right now in the tutorials.，由此可知 Spiros 对自己 tutorial 的评价是否定的，选项中包含否定含义的只有 A。

25． C　考生会听到 ... they are very familiar with each other, so because they know each other’s habits.， very familiar with each other 对应选项 C 中的 know each other well，由此可知答案为 C（他们彼此很了解）。

26． B　考生会听到 ... trying to speak up more and I just jump in，总结一下这句话的内容就是 B making more of a contribution。这道题相对而言比较难，用排除法会好些，A（觉得其他同学的观点没意思）和 C（导师让她加入讨论）在录音中均未涉及。

27． A　考生听到 I couldn’t understand what the lecturers were talking about... 之后，Hiroko 紧接着说 I had to turn to the books and journals。turn to 对应选项 A 中的 consulted，the books and journals 对应选项 A 中的 reference materials，由此可知答案为 A。此外录音中提到了 made pages of notes，这里指的是 Hiroko 自己记笔记，而并非 C 中所说的借别人的笔记。

28． B　考生会听到 My reading speed is still quite slow.。这就意味着 Spiros 要花大量的时间来阅读，由此可知答案为 B。此外考生还可以利用排除法来解答这道题，选项 A 和 B 都是关于速度的， C 则是与 reading skill 不相关的 vocabulary。

29． C　录音中有关课题名称的有 environment, health, education 和 engineering。考生可利用 Hiroko 话中的 my own field 来确定她的课题名称为 engineering，因此答案为 C。

30． B　考生可以听到 I would have felt much better working on reading from my own field.，由此可知答案为 B（阅读更多关于他们自己研究领域的内容）。
