Free Activities in the Burnham Area劍橋雅思11聽(tīng)力-原文翻譯及答案解析

一、Free Activities in the Burnham Area聽(tīng)力原文：

MARTIN:Good morning.

This is Burnham tourist office,Martin speaking.

SUE:Oh,hello.

I saw a poster about free things to do in the area,and it said people should phone you for information.

I’m coming to Burnham with my husband and two children for a few days on June the 27th,or possibly the 28th,and I'd like some ideas for things to do on the 29th.

MARTIN:Yes,of course.

OK.

Then let's start with a couple of events especially for children.

The art gallery is holding an event called'Family Welcome'that day,when there are activities and trails to use throughout the gallery.

SUE:That sounds interesting.

What time does it start?

MARTIN:The gallery opens at 10,and the'Family Welcome'event runs from 10:30 until 2 o'clock.

The gallery stays open until 5.

And several times during the day,they're going to show a short film that the gallery has produced.

It demonstrates how ceramics are made,and there'll be equipment and materials for children to have a go themselves.

Last time they ran the event,there was a film about painting,which went down very well with the children,and they're now working on one about sculpture.

SUE:I like the sound of that.

And what other events happen in Burnham?

MARTIN:Well,do you all enjoy listening to music?

SUE:Oh,yes.

MARTIN:Well there are several free concerts taking place at different times-one or two in the morning,the majority at lunchtime,and a couple in the evening.

And they range from pop music to Latin American.

SUE:The Latin American could be fun.

What time is that?

MARTIN:It's being repeated several times,in different places.

They're performing in the central library at 1 o'clock,then at 4 it's in the City Museum,and in the evening,at 7:30,there's a longer concert,in the theatre.

SUE:Right.

I'll suggest that to the rest of the family.

MARTIN:Something else you might be interested in is the boat race along the river.

SUE:Oh,yes,do tell me about that.

MARTIN:The race starts at Offord Marina,to the north of Burnham,and goes as far as Summer Pool.

The best place to watch it from is Charlesworth Bridge,though that does get rather crowded.

SUE:And who's taking part?

MARTIN:Well,local boat clubs,but the standard is very high.

One of them came first in the West of England regional championship in May this year-it was the first time a team from Burnham has won.

It means that next year they'll be representing the region in the national championship.

SUE:NOW I've heard something about Paxton Nature Reserve.

It's a good place for spotting unusual birds,isn't it?

MARTIN:That's right-throughout the year.

There is a lake there,as well as a river,and they provide a very attractive habitat.

So it's a good idea to bring binoculars if you have them.

And just at the moment you can see various flowers that are pretty unusual-the soil at Paxton isn't very common.

They're looking good right now.

SUE:Right.

My husband will be particularly interested in that.

MARTIN:And there's going to be a talk and slide show about mushrooms-and you'll be able to qo out and pick some afterwards and study the different varieties.

SUE:Uhuh.

And is it possible for children to swim in the river?

MARTIN:Yes.

Part of it has been fenced off to make it safe for children to swim in.

It's very shallow,and there's a lifeguard on duty whenever it's open.

The lake is too deep,so swimming isn't allowed there.

SUE:OK,we must remember to bring their swimming things,in case we go to Paxton.

How long does it take to get there by car from Burnham?

MARTIN:About 20 minutes,but parking is very limited,so it's usually much easier to go by bus-and it takes about the same time.

SUE:Right.

Well,I'll discuss the options with the rest of the family.

Thanks very much for all your help.

MARTIN:You're welcome.

SUE:Goodbye.

MARTIN:Bye.

馬丁：早上好。

這里是伯納姆旅游局，我是馬丁。

蘇：噢，你好。

我看到一張關(guān)于該地區(qū)免費(fèi)活動(dòng)的海報(bào)，上面說(shuō)人們應(yīng)該給你打電話詢問(wèn)信息。

我將于6月27日或28日帶著我的丈夫和兩個(gè)孩子來(lái)伯納姆呆幾天，我想知道29日要做些什么。

馬?。寒?dāng)然可以。

好啊

那么，讓我們從幾個(gè)特別針對(duì)兒童的活動(dòng)開(kāi)始。

當(dāng)天，美術(shù)館將舉辦一場(chǎng)名為“家庭歡迎”的活動(dòng)，屆時(shí)整個(gè)美術(shù)館都將有活動(dòng)和小徑可供使用。

蘇：聽(tīng)起來(lái)很有趣。

什么時(shí)候開(kāi)始？

馬?。寒?huà)廊10點(diǎn)開(kāi)門(mén)，“家庭歡迎”活動(dòng)從10:30一直持續(xù)到2點(diǎn)。

畫(huà)廊一直開(kāi)放到5點(diǎn)。

白天有幾次，他們將放映畫(huà)廊制作的短片。

它展示了陶瓷是如何制作的，還會(huì)有設(shè)備和材料讓孩子們自己動(dòng)手。

上次他們舉辦這個(gè)活動(dòng)時(shí)，有一部關(guān)于繪畫(huà)的電影，這部電影很受孩子們的歡迎，現(xiàn)在他們正在制作一部關(guān)于雕塑的電影。

蘇：我喜歡這聲音。

伯納姆發(fā)生了什么其他事件？

馬?。亨?，你們都喜歡聽(tīng)音樂(lè)嗎？

蘇：哦，是的。

馬?。亨牛袔讏?chǎng)免費(fèi)音樂(lè)會(huì)在不同的時(shí)間舉行——上午一到兩場(chǎng)，大部分在午餐時(shí)間，晚上有幾場(chǎng)。

它們的范圍從流行音樂(lè)到拉丁美洲。

蘇：拉丁美洲可能很有趣。

那是幾點(diǎn)？

馬?。核诓煌牡胤街貜?fù)了好幾次。

他們1點(diǎn)在中央圖書(shū)館演出，4點(diǎn)在城市博物館演出，晚上7:30在劇院有一場(chǎng)更長(zhǎng)的音樂(lè)會(huì)。

蘇：對(duì)。

我會(huì)向家人建議的。

馬?。耗憧赡苓€對(duì)沿河劃船比賽感興趣。

蘇：哦，是的，一定要告訴我。

馬?。罕荣悘牟{姆北部的奧福德碼頭開(kāi)始，一直到夏池。

最好的觀看地點(diǎn)是查爾斯沃思大橋，盡管那里確實(shí)很擁擠。

蘇：誰(shuí)參加了？

馬?。亨牛钱?dāng)?shù)氐膭澊銟?lè)部，但標(biāo)準(zhǔn)很高。

其中一支球隊(duì)在今年5月的英格蘭西部地區(qū)錦標(biāo)賽中獲得第一名，這是伯納姆的球隊(duì)首次獲勝。

這意味著明年他們將代表該地區(qū)參加全國(guó)錦標(biāo)賽。

蘇：現(xiàn)在我聽(tīng)說(shuō)了帕克斯頓自然保護(hù)區(qū)的一些情況。

這是一個(gè)發(fā)現(xiàn)不尋常鳥(niǎo)類的好地方，不是嗎？

馬?。簺](méi)錯(cuò)，一年四季。

那里有一個(gè)湖和一條河，它們提供了一個(gè)非常吸引人的棲息地。

所以，如果你有雙筒望遠(yuǎn)鏡的話，帶上它是個(gè)好主意。

就在此時(shí)此刻，你可以看到各種非常不同尋常的花朵——帕克斯頓的土壤并不常見(jiàn)。

他們現(xiàn)在看起來(lái)不錯(cuò)。

蘇：對(duì)。

我丈夫會(huì)對(duì)此特別感興趣。

馬丁：還會(huì)有一個(gè)關(guān)于蘑菇的演講和幻燈片，你可以在演講結(jié)束后挑選一些蘑菇，研究不同的品種。

蘇：嗯。

孩子們能在河里游泳嗎？

馬?。菏堑?。

它的一部分已經(jīng)用柵欄圍起來(lái)，以確保兒童在里面游泳的安全。

它很淺，而且在任何時(shí)候都有救生員值班。

湖太深了，所以那里不允許游泳。

蘇：好的，我們必須記得帶上他們的游泳用品，以防我們?nèi)ヅ量怂诡D。

從伯納姆開(kāi)車到那里要多長(zhǎng)時(shí)間？

馬?。捍蠹s20分鐘，但停車場(chǎng)很有限，所以坐公共汽車通常要容易得多，而且時(shí)間差不多。

蘇：對(duì)。

好吧，我會(huì)和家人討論選擇。

非常感謝你的幫助。

馬?。翰豢蜌?。

蘇：再見(jiàn)。

馬?。涸僖?jiàn)。

五、Free Activities in the Burnham Area聽(tīng)力答案解析

1.B考生注意本題要回答‘Family Welcome’event在art gallery開(kāi)始的時(shí)間?？忌梢月?tīng)到the‘Family Welcome’event runs from 10.30 until 2 o’clock，可以判斷run from與begin at為同義替換，確定答案為B。

2.C考生讀題時(shí)需明確本題要求回答正在上映的影片主題是什么。錄音中提到they’re going to show a short film.It demonstrates how ceramics are made.本題大部分考生可能不認(rèn)識(shí)ceramics這個(gè)詞，但如果能猜測(cè)該詞的讀音，不影響大家選擇C為答案。需要注意的是，選擇題選項(xiàng)出現(xiàn)陌生詞時(shí)，考生首先應(yīng)猜測(cè)該詞的發(fā)音，判斷其是否在聽(tīng)力原文中出現(xiàn)，同時(shí)考生可以采用排除法解題。

3.B考生讀題時(shí)需注意題干問(wèn)的是most of the free concerts發(fā)生在什么時(shí)間，考生應(yīng)重點(diǎn)關(guān)注most。當(dāng)聽(tīng)到free concerts時(shí)可預(yù)測(cè)答案相關(guān)信息即將出現(xiàn)，首先聽(tīng)到one or two in the morning，和題目要求的most不符合；接著聽(tīng)到majority at lunchtime，其中majority和題目中的most為同義替換，可判斷B為答案。

4.A本題比較簡(jiǎn)單，考生需抓住題干要求，找出4 pm concert of Latin American舉辦的地點(diǎn)，通過(guò)錄音中的at 4 it’s in the City Museum,以及關(guān)鍵詞museum，就可以確定答案為A。

5.C本題比較簡(jiǎn)單，考生只需注意題干中的關(guān)鍵詞begins at。原文中提到The race starts at Offord Marina，其中start at和begin at為同義替換，故答案為C。

6.A考生可根據(jù)題干中的boat race teams定位。錄音提到One of them came first in the West of England regional championship in May this year，此句為選項(xiàng)A的同義替換，確定答案為A。根據(jù)錄音中next year they’ll be representing the region in the national championship，確認(rèn)B為干擾信息，可以排除；C選項(xiàng)的矛盾點(diǎn)在于several這個(gè)詞在原文沒(méi)有對(duì)應(yīng)信息。

7.birds題目中的Paxton,good place是關(guān)鍵詞?？忌吹娇崭袂暗膔are，可以根據(jù)語(yǔ)法知識(shí)預(yù)測(cè)本題要求填寫(xiě)名詞。錄音中提到It’s a good place for spotting unusual birds,isn’t it?，后文給出肯定的回答That’right—throughout the year。其中spotting對(duì)應(yīng)seeing，unusual對(duì)應(yīng)rare,throughout the year對(duì)應(yīng)all year round。確認(rèn)birds為本題答案。

8.flowers題目中的關(guān)鍵詞是seeing和unusual?？忌吹娇崭袂暗膗nusual，根據(jù)語(yǔ)法知識(shí)預(yù)測(cè)本題應(yīng)填寫(xiě)名詞。錄音中提到And just at the moment you can see various flowers that are pretty unusual，其中moment與time為同義替換，錄音中that are pretty unusual為定語(yǔ)從句，修飾flowers，故確定答案為flowers。

9.mushrooms考生看到空格前的learn about以及空格后的and then collect some，可以根據(jù)語(yǔ)法知識(shí)預(yù)測(cè)本題應(yīng)填寫(xiě)名詞。錄音中提到a talk and slide show about mushrooms，故答案為mushrooms。對(duì)本句理解有障礙的考生可以根據(jù)本題需要填寫(xiě)名詞，而這個(gè)定位點(diǎn)出現(xiàn)在about后的名詞只有mushrooms來(lái)判斷答案。

10.river題目中的關(guān)鍵詞是part of,swimming?？忌鶕?jù)語(yǔ)法知識(shí)預(yù)測(cè)本題填寫(xiě)名詞。錄音中提到Part of it has been fenced off to make it safe for children to swim in。本句中part of it中的it指代上一句is it possible for children to swim in the river中的river。故river為答案。
