03、功能题
功能题主要考查的是说话者所说的某段话的功能,翻译一下就是为什么要这么说。功能题和细节题往往是相辅相成。比如举例部分,既可以考查例子的功能,也可以考查例子的细节。
如何识别功能题?
What does the professor imply when he says this:(reply)
What can be inferred from the professor’s response to the student?
What is the purpose of the woman’s response?Why does the student say this?
托福听力中的常见功能:

(2)Conclusion:now to sum/wrap up my speech
(3)Suggestion:you should have done something better
(4)Inspiration:come on,you are supposed to know this…
(5)Emphasis:please bear in mind that…/Rhetorical question
(6)Correcting mistake:Excuse me,Actually,Did I say XXX?I mean YYY.Oh,wait a minutes,What am I saying?wait a minute/I made a slip of tongue
04、态度题
态度题一般指的是professor对某件事的观点和看法。态度会出现在事实描述的后边。态度题出现的频率不高,但也是一个必须得分的题型。
如何识别态度题?
What can be inferred about the student?
What is the professor’s attitude toward…?
What is the professor’s opinion of…?
What can be inferred about the student when she says this:
What does the woman mean when she says this:

(2)把握态度上的肯定还是否定;
(3)喜欢还是厌倦;
(4)有兴趣还是没有兴趣;
(5)满意、不满意还是受挫;
托福听力中的常见态度:

05、结构题
结构题和功能题很像,考查的都是提出某个观点或事实的目的。不过结构题更侧重于考查在逻辑结构上的目的功能,比如引出下文,导入话题等等。因此,结构题往往出现在文章的开头和结尾,或者一个新逻辑层次开始的地方。
如何识别结构题?
How is the information in the lecture organized?
How does the professor clarify the points he makes about Mexico?
托福lecture文章的三种典型结构
(1)定义结构
(2)比较结构
(3)问题解决型结构
常见考点
举例考点
典型提示词:For example/for instance/like/if/take...as an example/let's see/there be...
注意事项:依照结构题的考查内容,要关注举例的目的,即例子所对应的观点。
转折考点
典型提示词:but/however/although/in fact/actually
强调考点
典型提示词:
①表重要:important(ly)/significant(ly)/critical/key
②表特别:particularly/especially/specifically
③表重复:I mean/and again/what I mean is
④表绝对:only/all/最高级
⑤表程度:really/pretty/quite/very
⑥表强烈情感:funny/interseting
因果考点
典型提示词:because/why/so/since/reason/as/due to/result from
专业术语考点
典型提示词:
①引出术语:is called XXX/is known XXX/停顿
②解释术语:XXX is a...(way/phenomenon/term)
XXX is defined as...
XXX means...
XXX refers to...
③进一步说明:you know...(很多时候作为解释含义出现)
06、推理题
推理题就是信息的推理综合,在考试中这类题型不能像细节题一样找到和原文完全一致的信息,但是可以根据文章内容,去得到合理的推断。但有一点可以格外注意一下,任何的推断在没有文章的依据或者缺乏能够支撑答案确定性的时候,都是错误答案。
如何识别推理题?
What can be inferred about…?
What does the professor imply about…?
What will the students do in the summer?
推理题的解题技巧
(1)注意出现的观点性语言:in my opinion,as far as I’m concerned,personally,pay attention,from my point of view
(2)注意进度条和结尾段的引申
(3)注意首尾段的遥相辉映
(4)正确选项经常是文章中没有出现的单词
