高考英语听力专项突破

听力中涉及的数字信息题是令同学们普遍感到头疼的一个难点。这里我们把听力对话中涉及数字的题型进行归纳总结,希望对大家有所帮助。

一、题型特点

听力中对数字的考查往往体现在时间、距离、年龄、费用、电话号码、房间号码、车船飞机号码、人或物的数量等方面。训练过程中要听清楚问题,根据对话内容所提供的数据,理清数据之间的关系,并进行简单的运算。

例1:

W: Mr. Brown, I would like to ask you a couple of questions before I show you what houses are available now. First, what price range are you interested in?

M: About 200 dollars per month.

Q: How much will the man probably have to pay for the house a year?

A. About 200 B. About 250

C. About 2400 D. About 4000

【解析】首先要听懂该对话中的 per month,而解题的关键在于听清问句中的 a year。男子回答的是他每月能接受的价格范围,而题目问的是他每年可能要支付的金额。此外,本题还涉及简单的计算过程,答案选C。

例2:

W: All the tables for 10 persons are already reserved by others. We still have tables for 6 or 15. Will that do?

M: Well, a table for 15 would be too big for us, and... the table for 6... if all the people in our department actually show up, we will need 2 more seats.

Q: How many people are there in this man?蒺s department?

A.10 B.8 C.6

【解析】在这个对话里,女士告诉男士所有的10人桌已经都被预订了,只剩下6人桌和15人桌了。而男士认为15人桌太大,但是如果部门里的人全部到场的话,6人桌又缺两个位子。要回答这个男士的部门里有多少人,需要进行简单的计算。所以就应该是6+2=8人。正确答案选B。

二、解题技巧

1.在听短对话前首先要浏览答案,如果发现题目所给出的答案中包含数字,就可以确定这道题是数字信息题,要把重点放在各数字的关系上,边听边做必要的记录。如2010年听力全国一卷考试中短对话的第3题,我们首先在试卷上看到这样的三个选项:

A. At 10:25. B. At 10:30. C. At 10:40.

浏览这三个选项我们可以马上清楚这道题目是要考查数字信息题。接着我们听到了录音如下:

M: So, when are the other guys going to get there? The train is leaving in ten minutes. We can?蒺t wait here forever.

W: It?蒺s ten thirty already. They are supposed to be here by now. I told everybody to meet here by ten fifteen.

Q: When is the train leaving?

这道题目问火车几点开车。我们根据所听材料中的 the train is leaving in ten minutes 和 It?蒺s ten thirty already可知火车会在10:40发车。正确答案选C。

2.如果听到多个数字,要注意记录并判断这些数字之间的关系,听时注意听 more(多), less(少), late(晚), early(早) / ... earlier (更早), fast(快), slow(慢), before(前), after(后), add(加上), plus (加上), minus (减去) double (是…的两倍) half start, begin, spend, miss, leave, put off / delay (延期), increase, add, borrow, lend, save (节约), go up(上涨), go down, at ...% off / discount / at a discount of ...% (打…折)这些词。

(1) It is not 15 dollars. I said 50 dollars more than that.

(2) There are already 30 chairs, and we also need another 8 chairs.

(3) This black bag is 2 dollars and that blue one is a dollar more.

(4) A: Tickets are 4 dollars for adults, and children?蒺s tickets are half price.

B: I need 2 adults?蒺 and 2 children?蒺s tickets.

(5) My watch is 5 minutes faster / earlier.

(6) That store discounts 10 percent for cash payment.

(7) $10 each and $1 off if people buy two. They are on sale.

(8) It?蒺s 6:15. There are 10 minutes left for us to catch the train.

(9) It?蒺s three now. The next train to Manchester leaves in two hours. But you can take a train to Leeds, which leaves in 15 minutes.

高考题示例:

① How much pocket money does Lily get a month?

A. About 20 pounds.

B. About 15 pounds.

C. About 5 pounds.

② Which of the following does the man choose?

A. The PE310.

B. The RT230.

C. The FG160.

③ How much does the man pay?

A. $300. B. $270. C. $100.

④ What time is the woman going to see the dentist this Saturday?

A. 10:30a.m. B. 12:30p.m. C. 4:30p.m.

3.在做这类题目时我们要注意英汉在关于时间、日期、数量、倍数等的差异。此外还要注意音近或型近的数字的差别,最常见的是 ?鄄ty 和 ?鄄teen 的区别。如果不小心就会把十几变成了几十。
