托福聽力考試中常見的圖書館場景（三）

在托福聽力的圖書館場景中，圖書館的相關政策是比較嚴謹和嚴厲的，同時服務也是相當人性化的。同學們可以注意記住其中的一些的細節(jié)，在以后的留學生活中充分利用圖書館的資源和服務，更好地避免違反一些相關政策。下面小馬過河托�？荚嚬倬W(wǎng)就帶大家看看有哪些政策和服務：

政策：

第一、被召回的書會有還書期限，不在還書期內(nèi)還過去，會受到不允許借書等的懲罰。如TPO 9 Conversation 2

S: No, I left it in my dorm room. These are books I need to check out today. Is it OK if I bring that one by in a couple of days?

L: Actually, you need to return it today. That is if you want to check out those books today. That's our policy.

S: Oh, I didn't know that.

L: Yeah, not a lot of people realize that. In fact, every semester we get a few students who have their borrowing privileges suspended completely because they haven't returned books. They're allowed to use books only in the library. They're not allowed to check anything out because of unreturned books.

分析：此處有考題出現(xiàn)：

Q. What is the woman trying to explain when she mentions students who have lost their borrowing privileges?

m Why the man should not photocopy part of the book

m The reasons for one of the library’s policies

m What will happen if the man does not return the book

m The reason the man has to fill out a form

根據(jù)此項政策，答案為第三項。

第二、一個班的學生需要用同一本參考書目來寫論文，可以要求教授向圖書館預約對應學生數(shù)量的copies。如TPO 14 Conversation 1

Librarian: Well, it’s still here in the library. So people must be using it. You know this seems to be a very popular book tonight. We show six copies. None are checked out. And, yet you didn’t even find one copy on the shelves. Is it a big class?

Student: Maybe about Seventy Five?

Librarian: Well, you should ask your professor to put some of the copies on reserve. You know about the ‘Reserve system’, right?

服務：

首先，圖書管理員會根據(jù)你的專業(yè)判斷你的閱讀需求。如TPO 7 Conversation 2

L: Sure. I will be glad to. What's your major area of study?

S: Latin American Literature.

L: OK. Well, over here's the section where we have language, literature and the arts. And if you go down stairs you will find history section. Generally, the students who concentrate in Latin American literature find themselves research in the history section a lot.

分析：在得知學生是學拉丁美洲文學之后，圖書管理員立刻向其介紹這位同學有可能用到的section。此處也有考題出現(xiàn)：

Q. Why does the librarian point out the history section to the student?

m She wants to point out the closest area containing copy machines

m She assumes that he will need to do research there

m The student is looking for a book he used at his last school

m Students sometimes mistakenly assume that the section contains literature books

根據(jù)對話內(nèi)容答案為第二個選項。

更令人滿意的是，學生提出的學術問題，只要圖書管理員幫得上忙，他會盡量幫助。比如在TPO 4 Conversation 1中學生需要研究一部play的影評，恰巧圖書管理員在這部play剛開始表演的時候看過，所以主動為學生提供了許多有用的信息，學生最后表示完成教授的任務不再糾結了。

圖書管理員會在能力范圍以內(nèi)為學生提供幫助。如TPO 9 Conversation 2中學生正在使用中的書被召回，覺得很困惑不能理解，這時候圖書管理員主動提出可以幫助學生復印他需要用的那部分。

最為人性化的一點是圖書館可以提供interlibrary loan service館際服務。也就是說如果學生需要借一本此圖書館沒有而其他圖書館有的書刊，那么圖書館可以代為從其他圖書館運過來這本書，非常人性化。請看TPO 7 Conversation 2聽力原文：

L: Our loan period is a month. Oh I should also mention that we have an inter-library loan service. If you need to get to hold a book that’s not in our library, there is a truck that runs between our library and a few public and university libraries in this area. It comes around three times a week.

S: Hey, that's great! At my last school, it’d take a really long time to get the materials I needed. So when I had a project, I had to make a plan away in advance. This sounds much faster.

分析：對應的聽力題目：

Q. What does the student imply about the interlibrary loan service at his last school?

m He never used it

m He came to appreciate it

m It was inconvenient

m It was expensive

根據(jù)聽力內(nèi)容此題答案為第三個選項。

盡管此處學生提到他的上一所學校這個服務的速度有些慢，不方便使用，但是至少可以證明國外學校的圖書館都是提供此類服務的。大家以后需要的話，可以好好利用這項服務。
