Theatre Studies Course劍橋雅思10聽力-原文翻譯及答案解析

一、Theatre Studies Course 聽力原文：

MIA:Hi, Rob.

How's the course going?

ROB:Oh, hi, Mia.

Yeah, great.

I can't believe the first term's nearly over.

MIA:I saw your group's performance last night at the student theatre.

It was good.

ROB:Really?

Yeah ...

but now we have to write a report on the whole thing, an in-depth analysis.

I don't know where to start.

Like, I have to write about the role I played, the doctor, how I developed the character.

MIA:Well, what was your starting point?

ROB:Er...

my grandfather was a doctor before he retired, and I just based it on him.

MIA:OK, but how?

Did you talk to him about it?

ROB:He must have all sorts of stories, but he never says much about his work, even now.

He has a sort of authority though.

MIA:So how did you manage to capture that?

ROB:I'd… I’d visualise what he must have been like in the past, when he was sitting in his consulting room listening to his patients.

MIA:OK, so that's what you explain in your report.

ROB:Right.

MIA:Then there's the issue of atmosphere—so in the first scene we needed to know how boring life was in the doctor's village in the 1950s, so when the curtain went up on the first scene in the waiting room, there was that long silence before anyone spoke.

And then people kept saving the same thing over and over, like ‘Cold, isn’t it?’

ROB:Yes, and everyone wore grey and brown, and just sat in a row.

MIA:Yes, all those details of the production.

ROB:And I have to analyse how I functioned in the group—what I found out about myself.

I know I was so frustrated at times, when we couldn’t agree.

MIA:Yes.

So did one person emerge as the leader?

ROB:Sophia did.

That was OK— she helped us work out exactly what to do, for the production.

And that made me feel better, I suppose.

MIA:When you understood what needed doing?

ROB:Yes.

And Sophia did some research, too.

That was useful in developing our approach.

MIA:Like what?

ROB:Well,  she found these articles from the 1950s about how relationships between children and their parents, or between the public and people like bank managers or the police were shifting.

MIA:Interesting.

And did you have any practical problems to overcome?

ROB:Well, in the final rehearsal everything was going fine until the last scene -that's where the doctor's first patient appears on stage on his own.

MIA:The one in the wheelchair?

ROB:Yes, and he had this really long speech, with the stage all dark except for one spotlight— and then that stuck somehow so it was shining on the wrong side of the stage... but anyway we got that fixed, thank goodness.

MIA:Yes, it was fine on the night.

ROB:But while you’re here, Mia.

I wanted to ask you about the year abroad option.

Would you recommend doing that?

MIA:Yes, definitely.

It's a fantastic chance to study in another country for a year.

ROB:I think I'd like to do it, but it looks very competitive—there's only a limited number of places.

MIA:Yes, so  next year when you are in the second year of the course, you need to work really hard in all your theatre studies modules.

Only students with marks get places — you have to prove that you know your subject really well.

ROB:Right.

So how did you choose where to go?

MIA: Well, I decided I wanted a programme that would fit in with what I wanted to do after I graduate, so I looked for a university with emphasis on acting rather than directing for example.

It depends on you.

Then about six months before you go, you have to email the scheme coordinator with your top three choices.

I had a friend who missed the deadline and didn’t get her first choice, so you do need to get a move on at that stage.

You'll find that certain places are very popular with everyone.

ROB:And don't you have to write a personal statement at that stage?

MIA:Yes.

ROB:Right.

I’ll get some of the final year students to give me some tips ...

maybe see if I can read what they wrote.

MIA:I think that's a very good idea.

I don't mind showing you what I did.

And while you're abroad don't make the mistake I made.

I got so involved I forgot all about making arrangements for when I came back here for the final year.

Make sure you stay in touch so they know your choices for the optional modules.

You don't want to miss out doing your preferred specialisms.

ROB:Right.

二、Theatre Studies Course 聽力中文翻譯：

米婭：嗨，羅伯。

課程進展如何？

羅布：噢，嗨，米婭。

是的，很好。

我不敢相信第一學(xué)期快結(jié)束了。

米婭：我昨晚在學(xué)生劇院看了你們小組的演出。

這很好。

羅布：真的嗎？

是 啊

但現(xiàn)在我們必須寫一份關(guān)于整個事情的報告，一份深入的分析。

我不知道從哪里開始。

比如，我必須寫下我扮演的角色，醫(yī)生，我是如何塑造這個角色的。

米婭：那么，你的出發(fā)點是什么？

羅伯：呃。。。

我祖父退休前是一名醫(yī)生，而我正是基于他。

米婭：好吧，但是怎么做呢？

你跟他談過嗎？

羅布：他一定有各種各樣的故事，但他從來沒有對自己的工作說太多，即使是現(xiàn)在。

不過他有點權(quán)威。

米婭：那你是怎么做到的？

羅伯：我會……我會想象他過去的樣子，當(dāng)時他坐在診室里聽他的病人說話。

米婭：好的，這就是你在報告中解釋的。

羅布：對。

米婭：還有氣氛的問題，所以在第一個場景中，我們需要知道20世紀(jì)50年代醫(yī)生村的生活有多無聊，所以當(dāng)候診室的第一個場景拉開帷幕時，在有人說話之前，有那么長時間的沉默。

然后人們一次又一次地保存著同樣的東西，比如“冷，不是嗎？”

羅布：是的，每個人都穿著灰色和棕色的衣服，只是排成一排。

米婭：是的，所有這些生產(chǎn)細節(jié)。

羅布：我必須分析我在團隊中的表現(xiàn)，以及我對自己的了解。

我知道當(dāng)我們無法達成一致時，我有時會感到非常沮喪。

米婭：是的。

那么，是否有一個人成為了領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者？

羅布：索菲亞做到了。

沒關(guān)系，她幫我們制定了具體的制作計劃。

我想這讓我感覺好多了。

米婭：當(dāng)你明白需要做什么的時候？

羅布：是的。

索菲亞也做了一些研究。

這對發(fā)展我們的方法很有用。

米婭：像什么？

羅伯：嗯，她找到了這些20世紀(jì)50年代的文章，這些文章講述了兒童與父母、公眾與銀行經(jīng)理或警察等人之間的關(guān)系是如何變化的。

米婭：有趣。

你有什么實際問題需要克服嗎？

羅布：嗯，在最后的排練中，一切都很順利，直到最后一幕，醫(yī)生的第一個病人獨自出現(xiàn)在舞臺上。

米婭：坐輪椅的那個？

羅布：是的，他做了一個很長的演講，除了一個聚光燈外，舞臺上一片漆黑，然后不知怎么的，它被卡住了，所以在舞臺的另一邊發(fā)光。。。但不管怎樣，謝天謝地，我們已經(jīng)修好了。

米婭：是的，那天晚上很好。

羅布：但當(dāng)你在這里的時候，米婭。

我想問你關(guān)于出國一年的選擇。

你建議這樣做嗎？

米婭：是的，當(dāng)然。

這是一個在另一個國家學(xué)習(xí)一年的絕佳機會。

羅伯：我想我很想去，但它看起來很有競爭力，只有有限的名額。

米婭：是的，所以明年當(dāng)你進入課程的第二年時，你需要在所有的戲劇學(xué)習(xí)模塊中努力學(xué)習(xí)。

只有成績優(yōu)異的學(xué)生才能獲得學(xué)位——你必須證明你對自己的學(xué)科非常了解。

羅布：對。

那么你是如何選擇去哪里的呢？

米婭：嗯，我決定要一個與我畢業(yè)后想做的事情相適應(yīng)的課程，所以我找了一所注重表演而不是導(dǎo)演的大學(xué)。

這取決于你。

然后，在你離開前大約六個月，你必須向計劃協(xié)調(diào)員發(fā)送電子郵件，告知你的前三個選擇。

我有一個朋友錯過了最后期限，沒有得到她的第一選擇，所以你確實需要在那個階段繼續(xù)前進。

你會發(fā)現(xiàn)某些地方每個人都很喜歡。

羅布：那時候你不需要寫一份個人聲明嗎？

米婭：是的。

羅布：對。

我會讓一些大四的學(xué)生給我一些建議。。。

也許看看我能不能讀懂他們寫的東西。

米婭：我覺得這是個好主意。

我不介意讓你看看我做了什么。

你在國外的時候不要犯我犯的錯誤。

我太投入了，我忘了為我最后一年回到這里做安排。

確保您保持聯(lián)系，以便他們知道您對可選模塊的選擇。

你不想錯過你喜歡的專業(yè)。

羅布：對。

五、Theatre Studies Course 聽力答案解析

21. C　這道題問的是：什么幫助Rob 準(zhǔn)備扮演一位醫(yī)生？三個選項都與grandpa 相關(guān)。 當(dāng)Rob 說到write about the role I played, the doctor,... 可知答案即將出現(xiàn)。當(dāng)Mia 問到Did you talk to him about it? 時，Rob 說...but he never says much about his work... 可知排除A 項。B 項和C 項是答案截然相反的內(nèi)容，能watched 就不能imagined，所以兩者選出一項另一項自動排除。當(dāng)Mia 再次問到So how did you manage to capture that? 時Rob 答道I’d visualise what he must have been like in the past...visualise 與選項C 中的imagined 對應(yīng)，確定答案。

22. A　題目問的是：在第一幕中，鄉(xiāng)村生活的無聊是由什么體現(xiàn)的？三個選項的內(nèi)容大有不同：words and phrases，scenery...in dull colours，pauses within conversations。so in the first scene 不難聽出來，知道進入22 題。And then people kept saying the same thing over and over... 可以知道是A 項正確，repetition 代替over and over。

23. A　題目問的是：Rob 通過小組學(xué)習(xí)了解到關(guān)于自己的什么？Rob 說so frustrated at time, when we couldn’t agree 可知B 項錯誤；當(dāng)

Mia 問到So did one person emerge as the leader? 時Rob 回復(fù)說Sophia did，可知C 項錯誤，他不是leader。后面的she helped us work out

exactly what to do...made me feel better，這里的exactly what to do 與have clear guidelines 相對應(yīng)，選擇A 項。

24. B　題目問的是：為了幫助制作，描述什么的研究材料被使用了？當(dāng)Rob 說Sophia did some research 可知答案快出現(xiàn)。Mia 繼續(xù)追問材料的內(nèi)容，Rob 說了about how relationships between...were shifting，即使中間的部分沒有完全聽清楚，shifting 也能體現(xiàn)答案changing，所以選B。 25. B　題目問的是：在最后彩排中學(xué)生克服了什么問題？當(dāng)Rob 說in the final rehearsal 時，可知這題答案即將出現(xiàn)，后面說到的one spotlight...shining on the wrong side... 可以確定答案是B。其他兩項都沒有說到。

26.E　當(dāng)Mia 說in the second year of the course 時可知答案即將出現(xiàn)，work really hard, prove that you know your subject really well 可確定答案是E，prove...well 與show ability 對應(yīng)。

27.D　Rob 直接問So how did you choose where to go? 需要注意答案即將出現(xiàn)，Mia 說了很長的一段話，其中有關(guān)鍵詞fit in with what I wanted, emphasis on acting...It depends on you. 可知答案是D 項，D 項“確定學(xué)院的重點是相關(guān)的”與這部分詞匯相對應(yīng)。

28.A　緊接著Mia 繼續(xù)說email... 與28 題sending in... 相對應(yīng)，答案即將出現(xiàn)。Mia 說有個朋友missed the deadline and didn’t get her first choice，然后又說you need to get a move... 可知答案是A be on time。

29.G　Rob 問到write a personal statement...? 進入第29 題答案區(qū)域，Rob 說final year students to give me some tips，可知答案是G ask for help。

30.C　對話的最后說到在year abroad 時該怎么做，Mia 介紹了她的經(jīng)歷，got so involved I forgot all about making arrangements... 所以選擇plan for the final year。本題容易誤選為F 項，因為里面有arrangements，但是音頻未涉及travel, booking，所以不對。
