托福听力中的多选题往往是考生们经常失分的部分,错选了一个选项就得不到分,十分让广大考生头疼。今天为大家讲解一下托福听力多选题的信号词,掌握了信号词往往可以让我们的答题正确率上升,减少失分哦~~
一、列举
列举的内容往往有3个或3个以上,在出现列举内容的时候说话者的语调会上升。这就需要我们快速记下列举出的内容。
But the problem, well, as natural habitat along these migration routes is developed by humans for housing or agriculture or cleared for raising cattle, for instance, there is less food available for migrating humming birds.
这里教授用上升的语调列出了三个原因,housing,agriculture,raising cattle。笔记我们可以记下house,agri,cattle,或者:hou,ag,catt
题目:What does the professor imply might cause a decrease in the hummingbird population?
A. An increase in the ecotourism industry
B. An increase in the use of land to raise crops and cattle ✔
C. A decrease in banding studies
D. A decrease in the distance traveled during migration
这题虽是单选题,但正确选项其实是把文中的两个原因合到了一个选项。可以出单选题(问a possible cause),也可以出多选(what are mentioned)。

二、并列
Also, besides, either…or, furthermore,another等,要求听到之后立即标上2,并把之前的内容标上1,预测成一个多选题。
举例 2:TPO17
The muscular system of the octopus enables it to be very flexible to assume all sorts of shapes and postures. So it can contract into the shape of a little round stone, and sit perfectly still on the seafloor. Or it can nestle up in the middle of a plant and take the shape of one of the leaves. Even Proteus would be impressed, I think.
典型的引导词:all sorts of,听完就知道可能要举例子了。后面的or连接了两个例子,所以这两个细节就一定要记下来。
题目what two examples does the professor mention to describe the octopus’ability to change its shape? Click on 2 answers
A. A small round stone ✔
B. The leaves of a plant ✔
C. A cloud of ink.
D. A piece of coral.
这个题目就是two examples,并且错误选项的干扰性强,也是文章中一直出现的内容。
