Goodbye Party for John劍橋雅思4聽力-原文翻譯及答案解析

一、Goodbye Party for John聽力原文：

LISA:Hi TONY,thanks ever so much for coming.

You know we've been asked to organize something for Johns farewell?

TONY:Yeah,sure,it's about time we started working out details.

LISA:Exactly.We don't want to leave it so late that it's double the work.

TONY:Mmm,mm.right,do you want me to take notes?

LISA:That'd be great,thanks.

TONY:Right,first thing is,when is the best time to hold it?

LISA:Well,he leaves on the twenty-fourth of December.

TONY:So what about the twenty-second?

LISA:Yeah.I think that's about right.

We want it quite near the time,don't we?

TONY:Sure,and what about a venue?

In college?A hotel?

LISA:I think a hotel will probably work out rather expensive,and I've been looking at the College Dining Room;that seems pretty reasonable.

TONY:Fine,yeah,why not?

LISA:And then we ought to be thinking about invitations...Who mustn't we forget to invite?

TONY:Well,obviously John and his wife.

LISA:Right.

TONY:And the Director.

LISA:Ah ha.

TONY:The office Staff.

LISA:Yep,and all the teachers and all the students.

TONY:Anyone else?

LISA:Faculty Heads?

TONY:No.better draw the line.

I don't think it's necessary.

LISA:Yeah,you're right.

TONY:I don't mind writing the invitations.

When shall we get them out for?

LISA:Enough time but not too early.

What about the fifteenth of December?

TONY:Well,there are exams on the sixteenth-better avoid them.

LISA:Tenth?

TONY:Yeah,that should do it.

LISA:So what does that leave?

Oh yes,a present

TONY:Would you mind doing that?

LISA:No.not at all;we usually go round with an envelope during coffee break,don't we?

TONY:Yeah,coffee breaks always the best time,'cos people have got their money handy.

LISA:Yeah,exactly.

Do we suggest an amount?

Or does it seem a bit unfair?

TONY:No.I think people welcome it.

We suggested six dollars last time,is that OK?

LISA:Yeah,plenty I would have thought,which should leave us with about ninety dollars.

TONY:Have you any ideas for presents?

LISA:Well,I've been having a little think.

I thought,you know,he loves music.

TONY:Yeah,and books.

LISA:So,I thought I’d check on prices for,well,perhaps CD players.

TONY:Yeah,that's a,that's a good idea,and also I thought maybe,you know,a set of dictionaries.

I heard him say he needed a good one.

LISA:The other thing he was saying last week was that his computer printer had broken.

TONY:Umm.No.I'd be really frightened about getting the wrong type.

LISA:OK,yeah.

TONY:The other thing is something for the home-Jill suggested a coffee maker.

LISA:Oh yeah.I'll certainly find out what they cost.

OK,have you got all that down?

TONY:Yes.

LISA:Now we need to think a little more about the money.

I know we've got a set amount from the Social Fund.

TONY:Right,what does that cover?

LISA:It's meant to cover the cost of the room.

TONY:Yeah.

LISA:And a certain amount for food.

TONY:And also drinks?

LISA:Oh yeah,certainly.

TONY:But will it be enough?

LISA:What we've done in the past is to ask guests to bring some snacks

TONY:Right.

LISA:We don't ask them to bring more drinks because we figure that's...that should come from the Social Fund.

TONY:OK.Anything else for the guests to bring?

LISA:Well,some music,because there'll be a tape deck there in the room,and we can have some dancing later on.

TONY:Anything else?

LISA:Well,it's just a thought,but a couple of years ago we had a really good party where we set up,you know,some simple games.

TONY:Yeah,great.Wasn't it based on photos,from the students and teachers?

LISA:That's right.

TONY:So we should ask the guests to bring photos.

OK.I'll put it on the invitations.

LISA:Now the last thing is,who shall we ask to do the speech?

TONY:Don't you think it might be nice to have one of the students?

LISA:Well then,the Student Leader?

TONY:Yeah,much better than the Director giving speeches again.

LISA:OK then,I'll ask her.

Lovely!So,is that all?

TONY:Looks like it.

LISA:Great.Thanks ever so much...(fade out)

五、Goodbye Party for John聽力答案解析

Question 1 College Dining Room.Tony首先問到...and what about a venue?In college?A hotel?venue的意思是“場(chǎng)地，場(chǎng)所”，此詞為卷面中的定位信號(hào)詞，所以當(dāng)聽到這個(gè)詞時(shí)，考生可知答案即將出現(xiàn)。隨后聽到I think a hotel will probably work out rather expensive，and I’ve been looking at the College Dining Room;that seems pretty reasonable.hotel有一定干擾性，但隨后提到酒店有些貴，大學(xué)餐廳不錯(cuò)，因此答案為College Dining Room。

Question 2 office staff.考生聽到第1題的信息后，接著聽到應(yīng)該被邀請(qǐng)的人員，這里定位信號(hào)詞頗多。考生可依次聽到John and his wife，Director，接下來便提到the office staff，因此答案是office staff。

Question 3 students.本題的答案與前一道題的答案連得很緊，在這種多個(gè)并列信息點(diǎn)一一陳述的題目中往往會(huì)出現(xiàn)答案很緊密的情況，值得考生關(guān)注。上一題的答案結(jié)束后，錄音中很快就出現(xiàn)了all the teachers and all the students，故答案是students。

Question 4 10th December.本題的難點(diǎn)在于干擾項(xiàng)較多，先是15th December，然后是16th。錄音內(nèi)容中提到16號(hào)有考試，要盡量避免在15號(hào)發(fā)送邀請(qǐng)函。隨后聽到tenth。接著，Tony說that should do it，因此確定答案是10th December，考生在聽的過程中如果無法正確判斷時(shí)，要注意答案往往偏后這一規(guī)律。

Question 5 coffee break/coffee breaks.從聽前預(yù)測(cè)中可判斷出本題的答案是時(shí)間，錄音內(nèi)容中提到we usually go round with an envelope during coffee break，隨后又聽到coffee break’s always the best time，其中coffee break重復(fù)了兩次，注意多次重復(fù)的單詞往往存在著重要考點(diǎn)。

Question 6 6.從聽前預(yù)測(cè)中可判斷出本題答案是金額，錄音中提到We suggested six dollars last time，故答案為6。

Question 7 set of dictionaries/dictionaries/a good dictionary.第七題的定位信號(hào)詞是CD players，錄音中提到CD后接著提到...also I thought maybe，you know，a set of dictionaries.考生應(yīng)意識(shí)到set of dictionaries是答案。

Question 8（some）music（/some）music tapes（/some）tapes.錄音內(nèi)容中提到some music，because there’ll be a tape deck there in the room，and we can have some dancing later on，即“那里有磁帶播放器，他們可以在聚會(huì)之后跳舞，因此要帶些音樂磁帶?！边@道題需要一定的理解能力，故難度略高。

Question 9 photos/photographs.第9題的定位信號(hào)詞是bring，問的是客人需要帶的物品。錄音中提到So we should ask the guests to bring photos，故答案是photos。

Question 10 speech.錄音中提到...the last thing is，who shall we ask to do the speech？即“最后我們請(qǐng)誰做演講呢？”這里的“the last thing”可以很清晰地提醒考生最后一道題的答案即將出現(xiàn)。隨后錄音提到Don’t you think it might be nice to have one of the students？“你覺得我們請(qǐng)個(gè)學(xué)生怎么樣？”Wellthen，the Student Leader“？那么學(xué)生代表怎樣？”Yeah，much better than the Director giving speeches again.OK then，I’ll ask her“.好，比領(lǐng)導(dǎo)再作一遍演講強(qiáng)多了，就請(qǐng)她吧?！痹诒绢}當(dāng)中，Student Leader同student representative意思相近，speech的多次出現(xiàn)提醒考生此詞為答案。
