图书馆场景在托福听力中出现所涉及的内容一般如下:资料种类,书刊状态,相关动词,图书馆各部门名称,图书馆相关政策与服务。下面带大家一起来总结一下图书馆场景中出现的考点……
托福听力的场景对话还有以下几类:
一、书刊状态
图书馆场景里书刊状态主要包括以下这几种:available可借的,out on loan=out of circulation已借出,on reserve被预约,closed reserve/not for circulation只读不借,due到期,overdue过期,renewed被续借的,recalled被召回的。这些词汇大家全部都要掌握,比如在TPO 14 Conversation 1中图书管理员与学生的对话:
Student: Hi, I am looking for this book---the American judicial system. And I can’t seem to find it anywhere. I need to read a chapter for my political science class.
Librarian: Let me check in the computer. Um… doesn’t seem to be checked out and it’s not on reserve. You’ve checked the shelves I assume.
Student: Yeah, I even checked other shelves and tables next to where the book should be.
Librarian: Well, it’s still here in the library. So people must be using it. You know this seems to be a very popular book tonight. We show six copies. None are checked out. And, yet you didn’t even find one copy on the shelves. Is it a big class?
分析:学生询问一本书的位置,图书管理员在排除了各种状态之后才得出结论,可见大家对于各种状态都要掌握。在TPO 9 Conversation 2中学生询问图书管理员为什么他已经得到了extended borrowing privileges的书却被要求归还,管理员回答就是只要有其他人来借同本书,这本书就会被recalled。
二、相关动词
图书馆场景中必然会出现一些常用动词,如borrow, return这类简单的词汇,也会出现check in, check out, renew续借,recall召回,pay the fine付罚金,reserve, book预约或extend borrowing privilege延长借书期,photocopy等词汇,大家都需要牢牢记住。
如TPO 9 Conversation 2中的对话:
L: Do you need all of it or is there a certain section or chapter you're working with?
S: I guess there is one particular chapter I've been using lately for a section of my thesis. Why?
L: Well, you can photocopy up to one chapter of the book. Why don't you do that for the chapter you're working on right now? And by the time you need the rest of the book, maybe it will have been returned. We can even do the photocopy for you because of the circumstances.
分析:学生表示只需用到其中一个chapter, 图书管理员随即表示可以帮他photocopy这个chapter。
Q. What does the woman offer to do for the man?
m Let the man know when a book he needs is returned to the library
m Photocopy a chapter of a book for him
m Ask a professor to return a book the man needs
m Find a copy of a book for him at another library
根据以上对话可判断第二个选项为本题答案。
三、图书馆各部门名称
TPO 7 Conversation 2的内容为一个学生前来了解学校图书馆的各部门名称与位置,其中提及的各种名称都是大家在备考过程中必须掌握的,包括collection of rare books, photo copier room, history section, internet section, front desk等等。除此之外,大家也需要掌握以下同类词汇audio-video center视听中心,database数据库,copy room复印室。
