Now, if you're taking the TOEFL, you should know what everything means.
如果要參加托福考試,那你們應該知道所有單詞的意思。
It should be not... "advent" means, like, think about "advance", something is progressing.
不應該是......"advent"的意思像......你們可以想想"advance",某個東西正在前進。
"Tackle" means, basically, "fight".
"tackle"主要是"fight",也就是“與......斗爭”的意思。
"Threat", something that's dangerous to you or could be harmful to you.
"threat"指的是對你來說危險或者會對你有害的東西。
But anything else, you really should know all these words if you're ready for the TOEFL. Okay?
還有其他單詞,如果你們準備好了參加托福考試的話,就真的應該知道所有這些單詞的意思。
So what did I do here? "The advent of information"--"the increase" in...or "the going up", in this case "advances", "information technology", "communication".
那么我要怎么做呢?把句子分割成小部分: "The advent of information"可以寫成增加,或者用向上的箭頭表示,在這里指的是“發展,前進”;還有 "information technology"和 "communication"
"New threat for cops", "civil protection agencies", what are they? They're cops, they are police, "cops to fight".
"New threat for cops", "civil protection agencies",這是什么呢?他們是警察;還有"cops to fight"。
Everything here in a short little thing like this, this takes you ten seconds to write.
把句子寫成像這樣的簡短的形式,寫這些只會花你們十秒鐘時間。
Meanwhile, you can continue listening and go on to other things. Okay?
與此同時,你們還能繼續聽并接著看其他內容。
Now, again, I will say this a thousand times if I have to.
再說一次,如果有必要的話,說一千遍我也要說。
You need to practice this, this is not easy to do quickly.
你們要不斷練習,要快速做到這一點并不容易。
You need to do this and continue listening at the same time.
你們要做這個并且同時繼續聽材料。
In the speaking and writing sections especially, you're listening for specific things that may play into the question that's coming. Right?
尤其是在口語和寫作部分,你們要注意聽的是也許會出現在接下來的題目里的具體信息。
You can practice all these.
所有這些都是可以練習的。
Now, if you know www.ted.com, it's a good website, there are lots of lectures, CNN also.
你們不妨去TED網站上看看,那是個很不錯的網站,上面有很多演講,還有CNN網站。
You can go get listening sections, you can listen to news or you can listen to lectures, but they also have transcripts, okay?
你們可以去練習聽力部分,可以聽新聞或者演講,不過它們還有文本。
So you can practice your note taking skills, listen two, three, four times, as many times as you need.
這樣你們可以練習做筆記的技巧,聽兩遍、三遍、四遍,需要聽多少次就聽多少次。
Take notes, then look at the transcripts and compare your notes to the transcripts, how close did you come?
做好筆記,然后看看文本,把你們的筆記和文本做個對比,看看差別有多大。
And believe me, the more you do it, the better you'll get at it, just like anything else.
相信我,你們練習得越多,結果就會越好,就像其他的所有事情一樣。
It's a skill at the end of the day, and it's a very important skill if you want to succeed on the TOEFL tests. Okay?
