Section C
Compound Dictation
36. unlike
解析:整个句子的主要成分均不缺,而此空单独位于主谓语之间,并用逗号分隔,应该是作为次要成分的状语,空格后是名词,故空格处应为介词。听到unlike后不难写出。
37. feelings
解析:根据空格前的thought可推测出空格处应是一个与其并列的名词,注意听清,feelings是复数,不要忘了加-s。
38. communicate
解析:根据空格前的could,知道此处应填动词原形,拼写communicate时注意双写m。
39. signs
解析:此空位于介词upon之后,又有形容词certain修饰,应填入一个名词,作这个分句的宾语,同时也是后面which引导的从句的先行词兼主语。注意这里是复数。
40. combined
解析:此空在could be之后,有可能是被动语态或形容词的形式,再观察后面and连接的并列从句的结构,不难推知此空应为被动语态,用动词的过去分词。
41. associations
解析:根据空格前的in和their,可知应填名词。association意为“关联;联想”。不要忘了复数要加-s。
42. filled
解析:此空位于become后,作其表语,可以推测应为形容词或动词过去分词。这里填fill的过去分词。
43. reminded
解析:根据此处这个分句的结构,知道这里缺谓语动词,再由空格前的are和后面的“by certain words”,可知应填动词的过去分词形式。remind of意为“使想起,使记起”。
44. 标准答案:the more words we read and learn, the more the number of words that means something to us increases
听音关键:the more, read and learn, number of words, increase
答案重构:the more words we read and learn, the more meaningful words we get
画龙点睛:这个空格是填句子,根据前面的比较句型,以及空格前的分句,可知应该也是“the more...”的结构。
45. 标准答案:express those thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to what we call literary style
听音关键:express, thoughts, in words, appeal... to, literary style
答案重构:write down those thoughts in a literary way // express those thoughts literarily in words
画龙点睛:此处要注意听清句子后面部分修饰words的which从句。appeal to意为“诉诸……”,在此可理解为“某事物以……形式表达出来”。
46. 标准答案:convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men to tears
听音关键:convey, meaning, like music, move... to tears
答案重构:convey his meaning in rhythmic and moving words
画龙点睛:这里要听的句子比较长,但预览题目可知这里要填的是谓语部分,听音时注意抓住动词;这里包含两个由which引导的定语从句,均用于修饰前面的words,听清大意后可用简洁一点的方式改写。
