【答案解析】[听力原文]
{{B}}TV Ratings{{/B}}
Children in the United States watch from one to five hours of television every day. / That’s a lot of television! / Teachers and parents don’t like a lot of the children’s television programs. / They think a lot of these programs are not suitable for children. / For this reason, every television program in America has a rating. / The ratings tell parents about the program. / Parents can check the ratings in the newspaper and this gives parents a choice. / TV-G programs are suitable for all ages, and families watch them together. / TV-Y programs are suit- able for children 2-6, and they don’t frighten children. / TV-PG programs are suitable for some children, but they can frighten children. / Some parents watch these programs with their children. / Then, they can answer their children’s questions. / TV-14 programs are suitable for children 14 and older. / TV-MA programs are for adults, 17 and older. / They are not suitable for children. /
[听音关键] 本文介绍在美国电视节目分级的情况,关键词有:children,television,programs,ratings,suitable,frighten。
[听写难点] ①一些需大写的较专业的词汇,如:TV-G,TV-Y,TV-PG,TV-14,TV-MA等;②数字,如:children 2-6, 14 or older,17 and older;③难词,如:television,suitable。
[画龙点睛] 本文虽然涉及到电视节目级别的一些专有名词,但文章并不难,且结构清晰。听第一遍时把握文章先讲述了为什么要电视分级,然后具体讲述哪一级别的电视节目适合什么人收看。另外,文中有一些词/词组反复出现,如programs,suitable for,children等,第二三遍书写时如果时间不够,可以先写出首字母或用缩写代替,然后在第四遍及最后2分钟检查时再补充完整。
