「TOEFLリスニングを、スクリプトを見ながら勉強したい…！」
リスニングのスコアを効果的に伸ばすためには、スクリプトを見て復習することが必要不可欠です。
聴き取れなかった「音」と「語彙」を振り返って復習しないことには、リスニングの精度は高まらないからです
しかし、気軽にスクリプトを読みながら勉強できる教材が、なかなか手にはいりません。
ということで今回は、スクリプト付きのリスニング問題「レクチャー編」を紹介します。

それでは早速、実際のリスニング問題を解いてみましょう。勉強は以下の手順でおこなうと良いと思います：
- 手順1：問題を解く・答え合わせをする
- 手順2：トランスクリプトを理解する
- 手順3：間違えた問題をもう一度解く
- 手順4：音読・オーバーラッピング ・シャドーイングを繰り返す
特に重要なことが「手順2：トランスクリプトを理解する」ことです。この時、わからない表現や聴き取れなかった部分を完璧に理解できるようになることが理想です。
読んで理解できない部分は、聴いても理解できませんからね
問題の後に、スクリプトを掲載しているので、慣れないうちはスクリプトを見ながら問題を解いても大丈夫ですよ。

リスニング問題のトランスクリプト
Learning to play a musical instrument is one of the best experiences that a young child can have. Learning to play music begins with listening to others play music. A child’s first experience with playing an instrument should be by ear, without the distraction of printed music. Playing by car is the natural beginning for children. The ability to play by ear will help them throughout their lives, and it also enriches the experience of music-making. But children should eventually learn to read music. So, when is the right time? And what’s the best way for a child to learn how to read music?
A lot of children start playing an instrument at the age of eight or nine. It’s best for them to spend a couple of years playing by ear before the teacher introduces notation -printed music. Children should first be able to feel that their instrument is a part of them. Playing by ear is the best way for children to become comfortable with their instruments.
The teacher should introduce notation only when the child is ready. The right time is when the child feels a need for notation. This might be when the child has learned so many pieces its sort of difficult to remember them all. Then the teacher can present the printed music as a memory aid. so learning to read music has a practical purpose and isn’t just a meaningless task.
A good time to teach notation is when a group of children play together. The printed score is a way to help them sort of keep track of who plays what and when. The score will organize their cooperative effort in a way that makes sense to them.
Another good time is when the child wants to play music that’s so complex it would be difficult to learn by ear. In this case, learning to read music is a natural step toward playing the music the child wants to play. The teacher should play the score for the child the first time through, and demonstrate how the notes on the page are transformed into music. The child listens as he or she looks at the printed notes. This way, the child can begin to see how the notes represent sound and a printed score becomes a piece of music. As the child listens—and maybe plays along—he or she begins to understand the shape of the new piece.
For students who play a chord-producing instrument- the guitar, for example—a natural first step toward reading music is playing by chord symbols. Chord symbols are found in a lot of different styles of music -like pop and jazz and at various levels of difficulty. Chord symbols are a simple form of written music—they’re kind of a halfway point between playing by ear and reading a standard musical score.
After children can play by ear. and then by chord symbols, the next step is to read standard music notation. Although that’s the natural order for children to learn, it doesn’t mean that each successive step is better than the one that came before. The three methods of playing music – playing by ear, playing chords, and playing by standard notation—are all valuable in their own way. Some children will always prefer to play by ear. Others will like chord playing and have no desire to learn another method. And still, others will find their musical home in the tradition of note reading. It’s the job of the music teacher to fit the method to the needs of the students.

最後に
リスニングは正しく復習してこと成果が出る
最後に、今回の記事をおさらいしましょう：
- ポイント1：リスニング対策はスクリプト付きの音源でおこなう
- ポイント2：問題を解いた後の復習が超重要
繰り返しになりますが、リスニングは問題を解いた後の復習がとても重要です。
自分が「聴き取れない音」と「語彙」を厳しく分析して、次に聴く時には完璧に理解できる状態を一歩ずつ積み上げていきましょう。
リスニングで「聴き取れない」ということは、自分でその音を正しく生成できないということです。発音の勉強も視野に入れましょう
できることをを地道に増やしていけば、できないことは着実に少なくなります。
勉強は大変ですが、乗り越えた先にもっと自由に英語を使いこなせる未来が待っているので、諦めずに勉強を続けましょう。
