TOEFL COMPLETE
COURSE
(LISTENING)
Skill 22: LISTEN
FOR ANSWERS IN ORDER
There
are two possible methods to use while you listen to a long conversation:
You can just
listen to the conversation (and ignore the answers)
You can follow
along with the answers while you listen
Because
the detail questions are answered in order, it is possible to read along while
you listen to the conversation on the recording.
|
Example from the paper TOEFL test
|
On
the recording, you hear:
(man) Can I help you?
(woman) I’m interested in opening an account.
(man) Well, we have several different types of accounts; checking accounts,
savings accounts, money market accounts, time deposit accounts.
(woman) It’s a checking account that I am interested in.
(man) I can help you with that. First you have to fill out a form, and then I
need to see some identification. That’s about all there is to it.
(woman) That sounds easy enough. Thanks for your help.
On
the recording, you hear:
(narrator) 1. What type of account does the woman want?
2. What does the man need
for her to show him?
|
