英语教学中的听力训练与测试

陈诚

C.Bill was very proud when he graduated.
    D.When Bill graduated from school,his sister was very proud of him.
    答案是D。
    测试时，上述两种试题的录音应各播放３次，每次间隔５秒钟，其中试题２的难度明显比试题１大。它要求学生在听懂录音的基础上，首先要领会录音中的句子含义，然后再在４个供选择的答案中找出一个与所听到的句子含义相同但结构不同的句子。它要求学生把听力、理解及句型转换有机地结合起来进行综合运用。
    九、听录音，写课文
    学生在本测试题中将听到一篇用已学过课文所组成的听力材料。听力材料的长短与语速应根据年级不同而变化。初中阶段的语速以每分钟６０－８０个词为宜，高中阶段的语速以每分钟１００－１２０个词为宜。书写速度初中阶段每分钟是５－７个词，高中阶段每分钟１０－１２个词。测试时，听力材料听三遍。第一遍只听不写，第二遍边听边写，第三遍检查核对。教师应立足于培养学生的整体听音能力，帮助学生养成整体记忆整体听写的好习惯，不可以让学生一开始就听一句，写一句，破坏学生的整体听音听写能力。
    录音：Once there were a large number of locusts in Salt Lake City.The lacuts ate a lot of cr ops there.The farmers tried everything to kill them,but they could not kill them all.

    试题：___________________。

    十、听录音，写短文
    与听录音写课文不同的是在听录音写短文这一测试中，学生听到的是一篇与课文有关，结构简单，没有生 词的听力材料。听力材料的长短、语速、书写速度及听写要求应与听录音写课文这一测试中的有关要求相一致 。
    录音：Crusoe had been in this unhappy island for more than ten months.Having made for himsel f a safe place to live in,he wanted to discover more about the rest of the island,He went up the
    brook.On the bank of this brook,he found grassy plains.As he went farther up the brook,these pl ains ended,and there were more trees.There he foundvery many kinds of fruit.He gathered a lot of
    them because he had thought of a good use for it--that is to dry them in the sun and keepthem w ith his store of food.
    试题：_______________________。
    答案见录音记录。
    十一、听录音，选答案
    本测试题要求学生在正常语速的情况下，仔细地听一篇短文的录音。短文应基本上没有生词，难度浅于课 文。这种测试侧重考核学生的听力理解的能力。学生在听了短文录音三遍后，要完成几个选择题。

    十二、听录音，答问题
    本测试题要求学生先听一篇短文的录音。短文里没有生词，短文的难度浅于课文。录音听三遍后，学生应对试题中所提的问题用英语进行书面回答。它不但要求学生能听懂、领会短文的内容，而且会用英语进行组织和回答。这是一种把听力与书面表达能力有机结合起来的测试法。
