Hi. Welcome back to www.engvid.com. I'm Adam.
大家好，欢迎回到engvid.com，我是Adam。
Today's lesson is going to be for those of you who are going to take the TOEFL or IELTS test.
今天的课程是为你们中要考托福和雅思的人准备的。
So just so you understand, I will be speaking at a more natural speed.
所以希望你们知道，我会用一个更自然的语速讲话。
It will be a little bit faster than some of you are used to, but listen anyway, and watch, it's very good for listening practice, and it will be helpful regardless.
会比你们习惯的语速要稍快一点，不过你们仔细听，认真看就是了，这是一个很好的练习听力的机会，而且不管怎样都会有帮助的。
So today's lesson is specifically about note-taking skills.
今天的课程是针对做笔记的技巧的。
I'm going to concentrate on the TOEFL, but it is also very useful for the people taking an IELTS test.
我要集中讲的是托福，不过对要参加雅思考试的人来说，这也是很有用的。
Now, if you've seen my time management class for IELTS, you will realize that in the listening section, it's very important to know how to take notes.
如果你们看过我的雅思考试时间规划课程的话，想必很清楚在听力部分知道怎么做笔记很重要。
You don't want to waste time concentrating on spelling and writing full words while the recording is playing because you have time at the end to transfer your answers.
在播放录音期间，你们不会想把时间浪费在拼写完整单词上的，因为听力部分结束后会给你们时间誊写答案。
That's when you want to write correctly spelled answers and everything.
那才是你们要正确拼写出答案的时候。
You want to just make sure during the listening section that you write enough to know what the word is.
你们只要确保自己在听力部分写下了足够的信息，能够辨认出这个单词是什么就行了。
We're going to get into that a little bit later.
我们稍后再详细讲一下。
What I want to concentrate on mostly, though, is the TOEFL test, okay?
不过我想要主要关注的还是托福考试。
Because in the TOEFL test, it is crucial that you know how to take notes.
因为在托福考试中，知道如何做笔记至关重要。
Why? You have a listening section; you have a speaking section; you have a writing section, all of which have a listening component.
为什么？你们有听力部分、口语部分和写作部分，所有这些都与听有关。
Remember, this is an integrated test, you're going to have to listen in each one of these sections, okay?
记住，这是一个综合测试，你们在每一个部分中都必须听。
In the listening section, what many people don't realize who haven't taken a test yet: You don't see anything. Okay?
很多还没参加过托福考试的人没意识到的一件事是：在听力部分，你们什么都看不到。
You don't see the questions as you're listening to the lectures or whatever you're listening to.
在听演讲或者任何内容时，你们都是看不到问题的。
So it's very, very important that you take notes as you're listening so that when the questions do come,
所以在听的过程中做好笔记非常非常重要，这样开始提问的时候，
you have the information in front of you, you know how to answer it, okay?
你们面前就有信息，就知道该如何回答问题了。
In the speaking section, you may be given a short conversation to listen to and then be given a question, and you have to speak your answer.
在口语部分，他们也许会让你们听一段简短的对话，然后给你们一个问题，你们必须把答案用英语讲出来。
But if you don't remember what they spoke about, then, you can't answer the question properly.
但是如果你们不记得对话中讲了什么，那你们也就没法儿好好回答问题了。
