校园生活场景(上)

校园生活场景下有很多典型的西方教育的学习及相关场景。考生若想要在
此类场景稳操胜券就必须对西方的高等教育体制、教学方式和留学生在西
方的学
习概况等有一些了解。那么朗阁海外考试研究中心通过对历年雅思
考试真题的不断总结和
研究,探出该场景的出题思路,发现其主要集中了
以下
三大考点
特征
:
?
考点之一:
学术主题讨论
?
关键词汇:
Lecture, tutorial,
seminar, presentation etc.
在很多西方教学理念中,培养学生独立学习的意识和能力是最
重要的理念
之一,这种理念渗透到了学校教学的方方面面。学校鼓励学生主动学习,
p>
而不是被动听课和死记硬背。要求学生独立地进行研究,收集和分析自己
或团队获取的数据,勇于提出问题,勇于向老师和同学进行符合逻辑性的
争辩。
p>
课堂上,教
师除讲解外,更多的是给予学生启迪,让学生思考和发表观点。
有什么疑问,学生课后可
以直接去找老师预约时间见面。此外,教师还会
要求学生安排相当时间在图书馆或实验室
做自我研究工作,鼓励学生主动
地进行学习和科研,从而激发学生的创新意识。
以上的种种均是
去往西方海外留学必将经历的。因此,在考试中,考生经
常能听到
学生和学生之间
或
老师和学生之间的讨论
,
有对学习方法的讨论,
也有对某一学术主题展开讨论。<
/p>
而一般来讲,这些讨论会以
lecture/report,
tutorial
、
seminar
、
presentation
等
形式展开
。

Lecture
lecture
一般以老师讲,学生
听为主,可能当中提出一些问题。
【典型范例】
:
Instruction:
Dr. Linda Graycar who is from the City
Institute for the Blind
is talking
about the system of writing for the blind known as
Braille.
1. What can the combined
dots represent?
A both
letters and words
B only
individual words
C only
letters of the alphabet
2. What is unusual about
the way Braille is written?
A It can only be written using a
machine.
B The texts have to
be read backwards.
C
Handwritten Braille is created in
reverse.
【范例原文】
:
Dr. Graycar:
Well, it's a system of touch reading
which uses an
arrangement of raised
dots called a cell. Braille numbered
the dot positions 1-2-3 downward on the
left and 4-5-6
downward on the right,
The letters of the alphabet are then
formed by using different combinations
of these dots.
Student:
So is the
writing system based on the alphabet with each
word
being individually spelt
out?
Dr. Graycar:
Well ... it's not quite that simple,
I'm afraid!
For instance,
the

first 10 letters of the alphabet are
Formed using dots 1, 2, 4
and 5. But
Braille also has its own short forms for common
words. For example, 'b' for the word
'but' and 'h' for 'have'
–
there are many other contractions like
this.
Can it be written by
hand or do you need a machine to
produce Braille?
Well, you can write it by hand on to
paper with a device
called a slate and
stylus but the trick is that you have to write
backwards . . . e.g. from right to left
so that then when you
turn your sheet
over, the dots face upwards and can be read
like English from left to
right.

TUTOR:
Hello, Sandy.
How have you been getting on
with your
dissertation?
SANDY:
Fine, and I’ve been working hard on the
various
action points we agreed on our
last tutorial.
TUTOR:
Do
you want to talk me through what you’ve
done?
SANDY:
Yeah, sure. Well, we agreed on three
main targets
for me to aim for. The
first one was to find out
about
suitable data analysis software.
TUTOR:
Yes.
SANDY:
And what I decided to do
was to look through
catalogues
specializing in IT.
TUTOR:
Th
at’s a good idea. What did
you come up with?
SANDY:
I
found the names of two promising ones.
TUTOR:
Right.
SANDY:
But I also thought it’d be
worthwhile talking to
a
lecturer.
TUTOR:
Oh right. Who
did you see?
SANDY:
Jane Prince. Do
you know h
er? She’s in the
Computer Centre.
TUTOR:
Yes, of course, she’s the
new Head.
(………………………………………………………….)
TUTOR:
So, let’s look at some new
targets. We’ll start by
having a chat
about your Chapter One. I very
much
enjoyed reading it. Your written style is
very clear and you’ve included lots of
interesting
descriptions of education
in your target area. I’ve
just got a
couple of suggestions for some
additional work.
SANDY:
Of course. Could I just ask
–
what do you think
I should call it?
TUTOR:
Well,
I’d go for
something like Context Review.
What do you think?
SANDY:
Well, short and to the
point.
TUTOR:
Exactly. Now,
as regards specific areas to work
on,
I’d be quite interested to have a few more
statistics about the schools in the
different zones.
SANDY:
Oh,
that wouldn’t be a problem. I can get them
from the Internet.
TUTOR:
Great, and although you did
make a reference to
quite a few
different writers, I think you should
aim to cite more works written later
than 2000.
SANDY:
OK.
That’
s more difficult, but I can try.
When
do you want that done
by?
TUTOR:
Oh, it’s not
urgent. Um I should aim for the end
of
term. But in meantime, I think you should
also be thinking about Chapter
Two.

We're going to look today at some
experiments that have

【范例答案】
:
been done on memory in babies and young
children. One
of the first questions
that we might ask is - do babies have
any kind of episodic memory ... can
they remember
particular
events? Obviously, we can't ask
them,
so how
do we find out? Well,
one experiment that's been used has
produced some interesting results. It's
quite simple and
involves a baby, in
its cot, a colourful mobile and a piece
of string. It works like this. If you
suspend the mobile
above the cot and
connect the baby's foot to it with the
string the mobile will move every time
the baby kicks.
Now you can allow time
for the baby to learn what
happens and
enjoy the activity. Then you remove the
mobile for a time and re-introduce it
some time from one
to fourteen days
later.
