看着文字材料,我们很容易把题目全部作对。客观的讲,这篇文字材料的语言难度远远低于近年来高考英语阅读的难度。
尽管听力和阅读能力有很大的差别,例如,听是通过耳朵把语言刺激送到大脑中形成记忆,阅读是通过眼睛把刺激送到大脑里面形成记忆,两者使用的器官不同,信息在大脑中的存储部位也不同(参见Scientific American, Sept. 1992)。但是,听和读都是语言信息的输入形式,通过反复的听力训练,会在大脑中管听和读的细胞间建立起连接,进而形成音形一体化的英语知识,从而大幅度提高听力能力。实践表明,在具备一定的阅读能力的基础上再提高听力能力的难度要远远小于英语阅读能力很低的人提高听力的难度。同时,我们也不要期求能够听懂自己看都看不懂的材料,因为只有英美国家的文盲才能部分的做到这一点。
