PART C: LISTENING AND TRANSLATION:
聽譯在中級口譯中占30分，也是一個大項，而且如果發揮得好，是一個“掙分”的項目。同學們對這一部分的試題總是有些擔心，大家主要反映在聽的過程中無法同時兼顧理解和記筆記(note-taking)，往往在聽的過程中似乎明白了原文，但在做翻譯的時候卻想不起原文的細節。這個問題在聽譯的PASSAGES部分更為突出。
在聽力教學的過程中，我們的老師會給大家介紹note-taking的一些方法。但熟練掌握是以大量的練習為基礎的。只有在聽與考試同等難度的句子或段落時，感覺比較輕松，才有可能有余力做好note-taking的工作。這一項在高級口譯考試中同樣存在，而且中級和高級的難度相差并不大，做好了這一練習，也為以后在高級口譯考試中的順利過關打下良好基礎。在這里，我把聽譯的原文奉獻給大家。大家在做練習的過程中，記住一點：“不求細節面面俱到，但求總體把握，自圓其說”。
