考生在备考托福听力时会因哪些个人基础问题造成失分?记听力笔记时会因预测不到位而忽略哪些问题相关信息?托福听力几大题型中哪些题型是失分重灾区?这些问题是不少托福考生会比较困惑的，下面朗阁智美专家将在本文中以一些TPO真题为例做个清晰的解答~

　　一、托福听力基础问题篇

　　1.语音、词汇

　　托福听力考生们对于单词的正确发音缺乏了解;对于托福听力单词的省音，连读，失爆缺乏了解;对于ETS开始在托福听力中加入英音等非美式发音的英语口音不熟悉都会造成失分。同时，一些基础词汇，场景词汇或是学科词汇积累太少或是词汇量太小，也会造成托福听力理解的困难。

　　如TPO 20 Q22

　　Why does the professor say this?

　　A. He thinks the fund is rather limited.

　　B. He agrees that the fund’s name is rather long.

　　C. He thinks the student needs help with her project.

　　D. He is surprised that the student is not familiar with the fund.

　　本题答案为B, 托福听力原文为：

　　Student: Um… Professor, I am really sure what the …um…dean…

　　Professor: Undergraduate research fund is…It is a mouthful I suppose.

　　mouthful这个词，按照构词法容易理解为第一个含义：(饮料或食物)一口之量;但它还有另外一个含义，即冗长而拗口的词(或短语)，难读的词(或短语)，要根据托福听力上下文的情景进行理解。

　　2.语法及背景知识

　　考生托福听力中的长难句听不懂，特殊句型听不懂，对讲座涉及的常考学科知识，如天文，生物，地质以及艺术等方面知之甚少或不感兴趣也很容易造成失分。

　　如TPO 19 Q14

　　According to the professor, why are radio waves particularly useful for astronomical observations? Click on 2 answers.

　　A. Some astronomical bodies emit radio waves but not visible light.

　　B. Radio waves provide more information about star composition than visible light waves do.

　　C. Radio waves can be defected with simple equipment.

　　D. Radio wanes can pass through panicles in space.

　　答案为A, D, 托福听力原文为：

　　Professor…: Nearly all astronomical objects in space emit radio waves. Whether nearby stars, objects in faraway galaxies, they all give off radio waves, And unlike visible light waves, these radio waves can get through the various gases and dusts in space and through our own earth’s atmosphere comparatively easily.

　　这道托福听力题涉及的是天文学，许多缺乏一定背景知识的同学在开始明白考察的是天文学相关就开始晕了，而且无论题目或托福听力原文中都有许多考生不熟悉的词汇，如astronomical, 并且这段话中有的句子较长，如最后一句，造成题目一定的难度。

　　好了，由于篇幅有限，我们先分析了一些托福听力基础问题，列举了一些考生们常犯的错误。在下一篇文章中，我们继续来看考生们因为托福听力常考原则造成的失分，想知道你为什么托福听力老失分?就跟着小编接着往下看吧~
