TPO听力答疑+问题汇总帖

hycqyUID：2819662

开一个TPO听力的答疑帖子
之前看到很多版友提出TPO的问题而不能尽快得到解答  因此在这里给大家提供一个交流的平台
大家如果对TPO听力有什么问题 可以在这个帖子中提出来 我联系了crysmile版友 我和crysmile会固定为大家做出答疑。
在这里对crysmile的无私奉献精神首先表示感谢！
所有的答疑结果我将会在1楼进行汇总，这样也方便大家查阅。
提得问题不仅限于TPO中的题目的问题，还可以是对文章的整体把握上的问题、对某些语言表达方式的问题，甚至你可以说一说自己是怎么错的，分享一下自己的经验。当然，你也可以对别人提出的问题进行解释或者讨论。帖子的目的一方面是为大家提供一个信息的汇总，方便后来的GTER查阅；另一方面就是希望大家能积极参与，形成互动交流平台。
大家放心，提出的问题即使没有其他版友解答，我和crysmile也会尽量尽快给出解释！
为了方便更好的整理，请在提问题的时候尽量把出处明确一下，比如某个题目到底是出自哪篇文章。在1楼的总结中我统一采用如下格式：
题目出处用加粗字体 如：TPO1 Section2Conversation Q3
其中为TPO1大标题，同一个TPO中的问题共用这一标题。
Section2Conversation为题目出现的听力文段，由于一个section中只有一个conversation，就不再标号；如果是lecture则会标明，如Section1 Lecture2
Q3为问题的标号，为方便起见，统一使用TPO一个section中17个题的那个标号。如果是对文段整体的分析，我也会写明，如Section1 Lecture2整体分析如果出处的字体为红色 则表示目前无人回答或答案有待补充
提出的问题是用正常的字体写出，相应解释用紫色字体显示，以方便大家区分。某些对语句的解释中，我会用红色字体表明一切突出的语句。
最后将会用带下划线的普通字体写明 如Answered by crysmile

当然在提问题的时候不用这么麻烦，只要你按上述格式说明出处就好，最好能把题目贴上来，这样比单纯的叙述更管用（这些主要方便我整理 呵呵 带来的不便希望理解一下）
最后希望大家有问题就提出来，希望这个帖子能给大家一些帮助！
PS：近期TPO阅读也会开类似的帖子，希望能给大家一定帮助！
再就是哪位版友有可编辑版的TPO听力题目以及文稿能不能给我一份？ 谢谢！

Section2Conversation Q3
Whydoes Matthew mention Greek and Roman mythology?
B.To get the professor’s opinion about a lessonhe taught.
D.To illustrate a technique used to teach athird-grade class.
B&D晕掉了，不知道该选哪个了。

答案是D 实际上Greek and Roman是哪个老师用来解释行星命名的时候为了使教学更有兴趣而用的
可以被看作一种教学的technique
因此Matthew提到这个是为了解释那个老师是如何 teach a third-grade class的。

Section1Lecture2 Q11
Listenagain to part of the lecture. Then answer the question.
Whatdoes the professor imply when she says this:
A.Thereis disagreement about the idea she has presented.
B.Shedoes not plan to discuss all the details.
C.Hernext point may seem to contradict what she has just said.
D.Thepoint she will make next should be obvious to the students.教授说的是：So,hummingbirds have to rely on plants in natural habitat. And, it goes without saying, but, well, the opposite is true aswell.
想问下为什么不选B。
注意红字不是指的不讨论细节，而是不言而喻的意思。教授的意思是说很明显，其逆命题也成立。而且教授还在之后给出了flower的例子解释逆命题怎么成立，因此B是不正确的。

C.The narration is scientific and difficult to understand.
D.Theaudiences of the 1920s and 1930s were not used to films shot underwater.这道题在某些版本的答案有误，正确答案应该是B，出处是He confused hisaudience in the way he portrayed the animals he filmed, mixing up our notionsof the categories - human and animal.

Section1Conversation Q2
我想问一下，
这个第一篇conversation 里面的第一题：
问那个女人对于 Happy Stranger 的评论
暗示了什么？答案是 A. Negative critical reaction led to its content beingrevised…听力中有提到
修订吗？
在新版中的答案是C. reactionto the play are more positive nowadays than they were in the past.请问这个答案是怎么来的啊？
librarian说了一句：The critiquesreally tore the play to pieces when it opened. It’s so controversial. Nobodyhad ever seen anything like it on the stage.过去对这个评价不好，所以现在相对过去就positive了。

第二道题要求选出是否displacement的表现。
请问第三个选项怎么会是正确的呢？听力里面学生举例，是把鸟类的敌人放在食物的旁边，鸟感到conflicting，然后就睡着了，但是第三个选项是：Ananimal eats some food when confronted by its enemy.答案说要选这个…
请帮忙解答一下，我都困惑好久了！


Section1Lecture1 Q8
Whatdoes professor say about disinhibition? 答案是第四个选项（It is responsible for the appearance ofseemingly irrelevant behavior），但是怎么看好像文中没有提到啊~？？？（已参看了文本，还是没有找到~！！！）
我选的是第二个选项，感觉文中好像提到了一点。
你要注意一个问题就是B选项中因果倒置了
文中说的是two action 导致disinhibition B选项刚好相反
所以B不对。D选项的依据是a third seemingly irrelevant behaviorsurfaces through a process that we call disinhibition.

Whatis the professor's opinion of the other students in the woman's group?
A.They try to take credit for work they did notdo.
D.They do good work they are interested in thesubject.
为什么是选D而不是A呢?
选项A是学生说的But honestly,they are taking credit for things they shouldn't take credit for.选项D才是教授说的 Does you grouplike your topic?之后还说Maybethat's part of the problem. Maybe Teresa and Kevin aren't that excited aboutthe topic. And since you picked it, have you talked to them at all aboutpicking a different topic? 况且这个问题是第三道，应该再稍微后面些的地方找吧。

Section2Lecture1 Q6主旨题
请问主旨题第一题怎么考虑的？就是section2的第7题因为我听到开篇说是要为了介绍接下去的学习计划所以才介绍movingrock所以选了1,觉得很迷惑，有时候按照选项的主体（比如为了plan或者为了project之类的）去选是对的，有时候又要按照大部分篇幅的内容去选。请问主旨题到底怎么做呢？大家有什么心得么？

通篇都在讲理论所以选c，不能根据开篇说什么就选什么，这种题还是得从整篇文章整体把握出发。

今天做了TPO5的听力，发现section1的第二篇lecture的文章逻辑好奇怪啊。开始以为是没听懂，但是看了听力文本理解清楚了以后还是觉得这篇文章的逻辑很不像ETS的出题风格…一下子讲这个方面，一下又讲到另一个东西上，跟主题句好像都没什么关系啊…不知道哪位做完TPO5的这篇lecture能指点我一下这个文章的行文逻辑是怎样的？

P:No...But such crude estimates...um …we can do better than that.
重听题butsuch crude estimates,...可以imply什么？
A.Thecurrent age estimates for the South Pole-Aitkin Basin are based on incorrectassumptions.
B.Thetechnology to analyze Moon rocks has not advanced much since the days of theMoon landings.
C.Toofew of the original Moon rock samples were dated accurately.
D.Onlyby testing samples from South Pole-Aitkin Basin can its age be preciselydetermined.
答案是D 注意这篇文章的主旨就是在讨论是不是在进行一次登月,but such crude estimates表示现在对年龄的估计太粗略了,只有通过再一次登月采集到样本才能精确估计年龄。因此D正确。

Section2 Lecture2 Q16: `: w/ ~' i* B. ?2 k
folktales 那一栏答案选了个 The plot is the only stable element.7 @( T  x% G4 x2 z0 L" d& H
但是原文有一句话：Um, not the plot, the details of what happens in the story would remain constant. 该怎么理解？
（定义）存在地方差异，即communal，民间故事反映了一个特定地方在特定时间的特征。（解释说明）所以，从本质上来讲，同一个故事可以在不同的社会群体中讲述，故事中的某些方面（如地点、人物等）会被改编，以适应那个特定的群体。但情节，即故事里发生的事件，会保持不变。因为这是把故事衔接为一个整体的线索。不过，所有其他的元素，诸如地点或人物，可能会为不同的观众而做相应修改。
the details ...是plot的同义解释
That's right. There's local difference. And that's why we say folk tales are communal. By communal, we mean they reflect the traits and the concerns of a particular community at a particular time. So essentially the same tale could be told in different communities, with certain aspects of the tale adapted to fit the specific community, Um, not the plot.The details of what happens in the story would remain constant. That was the thread that held the tale together. But all the other elements, like the location or characters, might be modified for each audience.
注意文本里的标点断句有问题...not the plot是和上一句一起的...就是说改变的不是情节的意思..
这里adapt是改写的意思  modify, change, alter, adapt, adopt/accept, adjust, appropriate, refine, perfect, revise ...
托福听力中常见的“改编，改进，改变”（在歌剧那篇也用了好几个）

Section1Conversation Q1
怎么会选D？学生不是去找教授说晚交的作业…虽然后面overheardDeAdams的事情。
学生去找老师，老师是恰好也想到有事情要和他说（即：他的作文迟交），所以学生就先解释了自己作文迟交的原因。接着，学生开始向老师询问为另一个教授举办晚会的事情，那才是他去找老师的真正目的。
你听对话一开始教授说她想起似乎也有什么事情要跟那个学生谈（Ithink there was something I wanted to talk to you about too.注意听这句话迟疑的语气），说明她是没有准备的~（对于这类内容的理解ETS考察的就是考生对语气、言外之意的把握，即那些没有明说，但是被暗示了的内容）而学生跟教授谈晚会的事情则是有备而来，因为他听到别的学生讨论，所以想询问具体信息。（准备的有计划的才是第一题应该选的“目的”，这是很经常出的考法）所以，作文是教授主动找学生谈的；询问晚会信息才是学生去办公室的原因。（第一题是以学生想寻求什么帮助的角度去提问，所以不能从教授角度）

Accordingto the professor, what dramatic elements are typically included in a well-madeplay to move the plot forward?
A.A series of major changes in the hero's apparent chances of success.
B.The introduction of new characters midway through the play.
C.Information known to the audience but not to the main characters.
D.The movement of major characters from one setting to another.答案是双选：A,C为什么A是正确的？
文中有这样一句话“theplot of the play perceived as the series of the sorts of the up and downmoments”加上之后的例子
可以看出hero的起起伏伏也是推动剧情发展的因素之一，因此A对。

Professor：If you wanted tobecome an artist, Paris was not a good place to go. Paris was THE place to go.
关于这道题目有不同的解释，但是较为普遍的说法是the在这里表示强调，意为巴黎是唯一一个该去的地方，所以答案应该是B.Paris was the most important place for an artist to study and work.

Section2Lecture2 Q15
第四题答案A，
我觉得B应该对啊。
文章说没有被承认的原因是，没有isolateenough Masurium to have available sample to convence...所以我觉得，直接原因就是没有分离出足够的Masurium，也就是它里面有杂质啊，B项啊。A项，是他们为什么没有提炼出足够的Masurium的原因之一。而题目问的是为什么没有承认，所以我认为是B。
注意没有isolate enoughMasurium to have available sample to convence不是因为有杂质而是因为那是放射性元素，会衰变。原文的出处是：It decays itturns into other elements. Oh, so does that explain why was missing in periodictable.所以A.element 43 has very fast rat of decay才是正确的。

原文说“whatwe call displacement. that is, language is abstract enough that we can talkabout things that aren't present here and now.” displacement强调的是非现在进行中的事情，而题目中"Movethe large coyote fast“是一个对动作的描述，不属于displacement的范畴，所以不选。

Professor:
Well,you need to be a bit of an opportunist, you know, commonsense things like always having a sample of your work on hand to give to people.You won’t believe the kind of contacts and opportunities you can get this way.And try to get your work seen in places like restaurants, bookstores. You’d be surprised how word gets around about photography inplaces like that.
原文 common sense things like always这句在like前面有语调的变化，也有一个停顿，因此可以听出来 “手头上有一份自己的作品”是常识之一。后面一句红字：你会很吃惊的看到关于摄影作品的谈论在这类地方会传得很快。可能主要是wordget around这个短语没有理解吧，就是消息传播的意思。

commontheme指的是共同的主题，可能你对这个的理解产生了偏差。听力中只说了大家对三岁前的记忆趋于模糊，但是并没说道共同主题。同时这道题考查的是句子的作用，事实上earliestmemories就是为了引出要讨论的内容，因此A选项正确。

答案是D,reflectchanges, 我开始选的B，为什么不对？
如果你选B tomore clear state the man's point of view 说明修改会是男生的文章Point不clear。但是实际上问题是男生修改后要使新intro能匹配新的内容，而不是修改使point不clear。所谓的introduction指的是paper的引言，老师让学生修改论文，学生问是不是把那几个没用的部分去掉就行，老师说去掉没用的之后还要再润色一下各部分连接，而且要改引言（因为引言是和内容密切相关的），所以选D。

• Opera originated in Italy but was notconfined to Italy any more than the Italians were.
  
  
  
• You could do worse than take thatcreature to an opera.
  
  理解上特别扭，希望别是光翻译。

第一个，歌剧起源于意大利，但正如意大利人一样，它并没有被局限那里。歌剧随着意大利人的迁移而被传播到欧洲的各个地方。
第二个，关于歌剧，George Chapman写道，【引言】“如果一个或两个外星人出现在我们面前，问：你们的社会是什么样的，地球到底是个什么东西。你可以做得比带它去看歌剧更差（潜台词：带外星人去看歌剧还是能帮它了解地球的，歌剧并不完全脱离现实）。”【引言结束】因为，说到底，歌剧还是以女性、男性和情绪作为开始的。

A.To give an example of a culture that adopted opera from the Italians.
B.To describe the type of setting in which opera was typically performed.
C.To point out a precursor of opera.
D.To explain how opera was introduced into French society. 答案是C 求解释！！
文中 itis the melodious drama of ancient Greek theater 以及之后的句子说明ancient Greek theater是歌剧的前身
所以C选项正确。
这篇听力网上流行的文本出现了不少错误，而且很多是关键词，这是我修改过的，你可以参考一下：古希腊戏剧是歌剧的前身。从标黑的词语和句子中可以找到依据。
歌剧的起源：
Opera,as we think of it, is of course a resurrected form. It is the melodious dramaof ancient Greek theater. The term‘melodious drama’being shortened eventuallyto‘melodrama ’because operas frequently are melodramatic, not to sayunrealistic.
巴尔迪伯爵和他的朋友们的贡献：在文艺复兴时期把古希腊戏剧重新改编为歌剧。
Andthe group that put the first operas together that we have today, were, theywere…well…it was a group of men that included Galileo’s father Vincenzo, andthey met in Florence.

这篇文章整体上比较难理解
希望crysmile能给分析一下哈
讲座逻辑：
一、    背景知识：
1、    在欧洲中世纪，印刷术发明之前，书和手稿都是手工制作的；往往用羊皮纸做书写材料；
2、    羊皮纸的来源，制作方法，特点（durable; can be reused）
二、介绍重写本以及抹去字迹的两种方法（各自的优缺点）：
（1）砂纸（2）牛奶
三、著名的重写本事例：阿基米德著作的发现
1、引子，提起学生兴趣：祈祷书为何被以高价拍卖？
2、进一步解释：回顾事件成因（最初作品是在纸草卷轴上写的，后来被覆盖，人们不知道它存在）。
3、发现过程及结果：祈祷书à被捐赠给博物馆
4、从重写本中读取阿基米德作品的方法：紫外线法等略述，教授给予正评价的是物理学家发明的X-ray成像法。

Section1Conversation 段落语言分析
学生论文选题：20thcentury staging of midsummer night dream.
不太理解谈话后半部分内容：前半部分讲了半天，说Brook'sinterpretation of the play无法找到，但这并不影响进行研究该作品对后期其他作品的影响。接下来的内容，我就不太理解了，这部分对话内容如下：
Student:there is enough materials around, but it will be a challenge. (这句话好理解)
Professor:true, but think about it. You are writing about dramatics arts, the theater,and that's the nature of theater, isn't it? (老师建议学生去找戏剧作品，但这句话什么意思？这个that指什么？是dramatics arts？)
Student: You mean, because it's live, when the performance isfinished. (这句话应该是关键，但是什么意思？晕，如果这句话不理解，下面就更不懂了)
Professor:That's it. (晕，老师说，就是这意思。老师指的什么意思啊？)Unless it's filmed, it's gone. (除非作品被拍成影片记录下来，否则it's gone) But that doesn't meanwe can't study it and of course, some students in this class are writing aboutproductions in the 19th century, and there are no videos of those. (这句话好理解) You know, one of the challenges for people who study theateris to find ways of talking about something that's really so transient, aboutsomething that, in a sense, doesn't exist. (又晕了：老师说，研究戏剧的难点之一，在于探讨一些瞬间存在，但是现在并不存在的。)
总之，不太理解：原本因为学生无法找到Brook'sinterpretation，老师才建议学生去找戏剧作品，说dramaticsarts是戏剧作品的nature。可从老师对戏剧作品介绍(瞬间存在但是现在又不存在的特点)，看不出，这条建议与学生论文staging ofmidsummer night dream有什么关系？能有什么帮助？学生研究的应该是，该作品对后期其他作品的影响，对否？

老师：“that's the nature of theater ”那就是戏剧的特点（“那”指的是：每次演出结束后，那个演出就不再存在了，因为没有录制，所以是独一无二的）
学生：您的意思是？…由于是现场的，所以当演出结束（就不存在了）（学生的话中断，没说完）
老师：没错。除非它被录制下来，否则就消失了……对于研究戏剧的人来说，一个挑战就是找到办法去讨论一种瞬间即逝的东西，一种从某种意义来讲，并不存在的东西。

TPO5 Section2 Lecture2 Q16
folktales 那一栏答案选了个 The plot is the only stable element.
但是原文有一句话：Um, not the plot, the details of what happens in the story would remain constant. 该怎么理解？

hycqyUID：2819662

11# dkflame 这段话这么理解
（定义）存在地方差异，即communal，民间故事反映了一个特定地方在特定时间的特征。（解释说明）所以，从本质上来讲，同一个故事可以在不同的社会群体中讲述，故事中的某些方面（如地点、人物等）会被改编，以适应那个特定的群体。但情节，即故事里发生的事件，会保持不变。因为这是把故事衔接为一个整体的线索。不过，所有其他的元素，诸如地点或人物，可能会为不同的观众而做相应修改。
the details ...是plot的同义解释
That's right. There's local difference. And that's why we say folk tales are communal. By communal, we mean they reflect the traits and the concerns of a particular community at a particular time. So essentially the same tale could be told in different communities, with certain aspects of the tale adapted to fit the specific community, Um, not the plot.The details of what happens in the story would remain constant. That was the thread that held the tale together. But all the other elements, like the location or characters, might be modified for each audience.
注意文本里的标点断句有问题...not the plot是和上一句一起的...就是说改变的不是情节的意思..
这里adapt是改写的意思  modify, change, alter, adapt, adopt/accept, adjust, appropriate, refine, perfect, revise ...
托福听力中常见的“改编，改进，改变”（在歌剧那篇也用了好几个）

14# monkeyhouhou 第一遍的时候可能你不知道要说什么 所以听的很盲目 我觉得什么都听不进去不至于 可能你有一些不懂的就会耽误到下面一句话  如果一句一句的听 你能听明白的大概？
