首先，让我们来认识一下态度题。态度题的提问方式一般是这样的：

　　“What is the professor’s attitude toward…?”

　　“What is the professor’s opinion of …?”

　　从这样的问题中我们不难看出，态度题是针对文中某人对人或事的态度和观点进行的提问。例如，在TPO3section2中的第一篇lecture中，教授讲到这样几句话：

　　Some of the world’s oldest preserved art is the cave art of Europe, most of it in Spain and France. And the earliest cave paintings found to date are those of the Chauvet Cave        in France discovered in 1994.

　　……

　　I mean, we tend to think that people who lived at that time must have been pretty primitive. But I’m gonna show you some slides in a few minutes and I think you will agree with me that this art is anything but primitive. They are masterpieces. And they look so real, so alive that it’s very hard to imagine that they are so very old.

　　然后，在这篇lecture后，出现了这样一道题：

　　T3S2Q8

　　What is the professor’s opinion about the art at the Chauvet cave?

　　A. It is extremely well done.

　　B. It probably reflected the artists’ religious beliefs.

　　C. It is less sophisticated than the art at Lascaux and Altamira.

　　D. It is probably not much older than the art at Lascaux and Altamira.

　　这道题的答案是A。

　　从上面这个例子中我们能够看到，当文章当中出现评价性的语言时，往往后面就会有相应的题目，因此，当我们听到这些内容时，一定要注意听，同时抓紧记（笔记）。当然，要评价人或事物，我们通常用形容词或副词。在我们的真题当中，出现过这么一些词，如：primitive(原始的，粗糙的), real, alive, brilliant,

　　progressive(先进的) , sophisticated (精細的), mysterious  (神秘的), practical (实际的), notable (著名的), amazing(amazed), vulnerable (脆弱的), accessible 可（或易）接近的；可(或易)得到的;可(或易)使用的can(can’t), simple, complex, challenging.

　　当然，这只是一部分，大家在做题的过程中可进一步补充。但是，仅仅在听到这些词的时候打起十二分的精神还不够，因为太被动。如果我们知道什么地方容易出现评价性的内容，那我们就变被动为主动，抓到他们的几率就会大大提高。

　　以下是托福听力态度题的常见几种态度，供考生们参考。

　　惊讶，常见信号词有Really, I couldn’t believe……，Gee! Jesus! My dear! Boy! Jesus Christ! Man! Oh, myGod! Gosh! Oh, my! What! Dear me!等;

　　支持/赞扬，常见信号词有great, that’s exactly what I mean, Fabulous; Magnificent; Glamorous; Excellent;Terrific; Awesome; Amazing; Fantastic; Incredible; Outstanding; Superb;Charming; Good job等;

　　反对，常见信号词有think carefully, critically, but, toobad, it’s a good ……，but……等;

　　可惜，常见信号词有what a shame/ that’stoo bad./ I’m sorry to hear that/ tough luck等

　　其实做好托福听力态度题还是有规律可循的，考生们只要掌握了合适的解题思路，此类题型就能引刃而解了。
