新编六级听力练习 第276期

Section C Compound Dictation
答案解析
36. 答案：noteworthy
解析：此处需要形容词，修饰名词benefits。该词为多音节形容词，表示“显著的，值得注意的”，其比较级或最高级用“more/most+原级”形式。后缀-worthy构成的形容词，一般表示“值得……的”，类似结构的单词还有trustworthy（值得信赖的），praiseworthy（值得表扬的）等。
37. 答案：occurred
解析：注意occur的过去分词、现在分词和名词都应先双写字母r，再加以变化。
38. 答案：host
解析：a host of为固定搭配，表示“一大群许多”，后面跟可数名词的复数形式。
39. 答案：impaired
解析：此处需要形容词或名词修饰fertility，与or前的liver damages构成并列结构。故若只听到impair也可知要补上-ed，表示“受损的，（能力）减弱的”。注意air不要误写成are。
40. 答案：previous
解析：此处需要形容词，修饰名词reports。该词意为“以前的”。
41. 答案：fend
解析：根据前面的help可知，此处需要动词原形，且能与介词off搭配。fend off表示“抵挡，避开”。
42. 答案：overestimated
解析：由前面的have been可知该词为分词形式，故不要漏了词尾的-d。注意“over+v./n./adj.”表示“过去/过量/过分……”，反义词一般为“under+v./n./adj.”，表示“……不足”。
43. 答案：annual
解析：此处需要形容词，修饰meeting。注意不要忘记双写字母n。
44. 标准答案：The Heart Association advises that alcohol, if consumed at all, should be limited to one drink per day for women and two per day for men
听音关键：Heart Association, advise, alcohol, consumed, limited, one, per day, women, two, men
答案重构：The Heart Association advises that women should be limited to one alcoholic drink every day and men two
画龙点睛：注意，advise后跟that引导的从句时，从句使用虚拟语气，即谓语使用“should+动词原形”的形式，改写时也是一样。记录原句时，要注意if consumed at all为插入成分，前后应用逗号隔开。
45. 标准答案：interviewed family members about the deceased men's drinking habits and then studied alcohol's effect on their blood vessels
听音关键：interviewed, family members, deceased, drinking habits, studied, alcohol's effect, vessels
答案重构：asked family members about those dead men's drinking habits and studied alcohol's effect on their blood vessels
画龙点睛：man与men在发音上极为相似，但是根据后半句的their判断，应为复数形式。deceased可以替换为简单的dead。
46. 标准答案：The more people drank, the more likely they were to have suffered a fatal heart attack
听音关键：more, drank, more likely, were to, suffered, fatal, heart attack
答案重构：people who drank more were more likely to suffer a fatal heart attack
画龙点睛：在听记原文时，注意“the more...the more”的结构。
