3月加题之后，很多学生普遍反应听力成绩总是不够理想。通过分析其中的原因，我们不难发现，他们中的大部分人普遍在Retell Lecture这个题型上存在着这样或那样的问题。

与此同时，一些同学在平时练习及真实考试中一直疑惑，在Retell Lecture的答题过程中，当听懂了整个文章后，我们到底需要怎样分析，归纳，总结录音的信息。

今天我们就通过分析一篇近期的Retell Lecture新题，来解答大家的疑问。

让我们通过听力原文来剖析一下这道Retell Lecture：

第一段

When you think of a leader, you may think of an individual who is above all bold. But a new study of fish called sticklebacks shows that shy individuals actually prefer to follow fish that are similarly timid.

这一段话比较简单，主要讲的是通过研究棘鱼，发现这种鱼中比较羞涩的个体更愿意跟随同样胆小、羞怯的同伴。

因此这段话可以概括为：

A study finds that shy sticklebacks prefer to follow fish that are similarly timid.

第二段

Researchers had trios of sticklebacks with known personalities play follow the leader. The fish were placed in a tank that had some plastic plants at one end and some food hidden at the other. In some of the groups, a bold fish and a shy fish acted as leaders, while another shy fish followed. And in other groups, it was a bold fish that did the following. The researchers recorded whether the follower sallied forth more frequently with the fish that was behaviorally similar or the one that was different.

这一段话详细描述了一个科学实验的过程，具体的过程为：将鱼装进一个鱼缸内，在一些小组中，胆大的鱼和羞怯的鱼作为领导者，与此同时胆小的鱼会跟随他们。在另一些小组中，胆大的鱼跟随他们。研究者记录下跟随的鱼是否更加愿意追随与其有相同personality的鱼。

这段对实验过程的描述十分详细，而在Retell Lecture的总结过程中，我们其实不需要对这些Detail Information进行介绍。对于实验，我们更需要讲述实验结论。

第三段

What they found is that shy fish were more likely to emerge from under cover when an equally wary fellow was already out there. Bold follower fish did not seem to care which leader they followed.

这段向我们阐述了实验的结果，因此这段是我们在Retell Lecture的答案中必须出现的。

因此，这段可以概括为：

While shy fish prefer fellows with similar personalities, bold follower fish did not care which leader they follow.

第四段

Of course, no matter which fish a stickleback chose to stick with, the bold fish did lead more expeditions over the course of the experiment than their more retiring friends. That’s because the bold fish initiated more trips, regardless of who might be tailing them. The findings are in the journal Biology Letters.

这段话描述了，不管stickleback选择跟随谁，胆大的鱼会领导更多的远征。

因此，这段话可以概括为：

No matter who might follow them, bold fish tend to lead more trips.

第五段

The researchers write that “when offered a choice of leaders, sticklebacks prefer to follow individuals whose personality matches their own, but bolder individuals may, nevertheless, be able to impose their leadership, even among shy followers, simply through greater effort.” We may soon see if such tendencies also hold true in humans, when Americans decide who they’ll follow in November. Unless, of course, something fishy happens.

这段话的前半部分描述了，如果可以选择领导者，sticklebacks倾向于跟随与他们有相同personality的领导者，但是胆大的鱼能够通过其努力更好地施加领导力。

这段话后半部分主要描述了这个趋势很可能很快在人群中显现。

因此这段话可以概括为：

Sticklefish tends to choose the leader with similar personality, but bold fish can impose greater leadership with their effort.
Such a trend may soon be seen in humans.
