　　其实同学们想要提高托福听力，无外乎两个方面的提高，一个是听写，一个是听音。首先我们要能听懂对话内容，其次我们能够记录下有用的信息。那么提升的最好方法是什么呢?当时是大量真题的练习了。新东方在线托福网为大家推荐老托福听力93篇PartC原文及音频，供大家参考。

【老托福听力93篇文本汇总】 【老托福听力93篇音频】

　　So, uh . . . as Jim said, James Polk was the eleventh President, and . . . uh . . . well, my report's about the next President—Zachary Taylor. Taylor was elected in 1849.

　　那么，呃……就像Jim所说，James Polk曾经是第十一任总统，并且……呃……好，我的报告是关于下任总统-- Zachary Taylor。Taylor于1849年当选。

　　It's surprising because . . . well, he was the first President that didn't have any previous political experience.

　　令人惊讶的是因为……好吧，他是第一个在之前没有任何政治经验的总统。

　　The main reason he was chosen as a candidate was because he was a war hero.

　　他被选作候选人的主要原因是他曾是一个战争英雄。

　　In the army, his men called him "Old Rough and Ready". I guess because of his . . . "rough edges."

　　在军队中，他的手下叫他“大老粗”。我猜是因为他的…… “棱角”

　　He was kind of blunt and he didn't really look like a military hero.

　　他有些直率，而且他真的看起来不像一个战斗英雄。

　　He liked to do things like wear civilian clothes instead of a uniform, even in battle.

　　他喜欢做的事情，比如穿便服而不是制服，即使是在战斗中。

　　And he was so short and plump he had to be lifted up onto his horse.

　　而且他是如此的矮和粗壮，他不得不被抬到他的马上。

　　But he did win a lot of battles and he became more and more popular.

　　但他的确赢了很多战争，而且他变得越来越受欢迎。

　　So, the Whig party decided to nominate him for the presidency, even though no one knew anything about where he stood on the issues.

　　所以，辉格党决定提名他参加总统竞选，即使没人知道他站在议题的哪一端。

　　I couldn't find much about his accomplishments, probably because he was only in office about a year and a half before he died.

　　我没能找到很多关于他的成就，可能是因为他在去世前仅仅执政了一年半。

　　But one thing, he pushed for the development of the transcontinental railroad because he thought it was important to form a link with the West Coast.

　　但有一件事，他努力争取了横穿大陆的铁路线的发展，因为他认为同西海岸形成一个连接是很重要的。

　　There was a lot of wealth in California and Oregon from commerce and minerals and stuff.

　　在California 和 Oregon有大量的源自商业和矿产等的财富。

　　Also, he established an agricultural bureau in the Department of the Interior and promoted more government aid to agriculture.

　　并且，他在内政部建立了一个农业局，并且促进了对于农业的更多的国家援助。

　　Well, that's about all I found. Like I said, he died in office in 1850, so his Vice President took over, and that's the next report, so . . . thank you.

　　好，这就是我所有的发现。就像我说过的，他于1850年在任时去世，因此他的副总统接任，这是下一个报告，那么……谢谢大家。
