Q1:
从Options可以看出这个空是填写一种具体的交通方式,从expensive实际可以推测是taxi.因而在听到原文In that case the quickest and most comfortable is a cab 后就直接肯定推测。
Q2:
根据女声的问句:Whereabouts does it stop in Milton?我们知道马上要问达到在市区什么地点。 接着根据题目中的信号词direct,男声说道It goes directly from the airport here to the City Centre and it's pretty fast.得出答案city centre.
Q3:
根据long 可以确定后面填写名词,并且是关于Greyhound bus的信息,前面男声提到you have to bear in mind there is only one departure a day, so it depends on what time your flight gets in. 这里给出一个重要的信息就是Greyhound bus一天一趟。女声提到 we’re due to get there at 11:30. 这时候男声随即给出信息Hmmm, too bad, the bus leaves at 3.:45, so you would have quite a wait - more than 4 hours.…
Q4:
注意写法It's a door-to-door service 之后提到了这种方式的另外一个优点:one every two hours.
Q5:
根据单程和往返的价格定位,之后可以捕捉到But you do need to reserve a seat。
Q6
要注意题目中有干扰信息和信息的修改:The 16th of October - oh, no, sorry, that's my departure date. I arrive on the 17th, so book it for then, please.。日期不能写成 17/10或10/17,而要将月份写成单词形式October.答案为17th (of) October.
Q7
也有干扰信息12:.00,So if I book your Shuttle for after 12.00 - let's say, 12.30: that should give you plenty of time to, you know, collect your baggage, maybe grab a coffee?考生需听清楚每个时间代表的含义。
Q8
考察专有名词的拼写,注意首字母大写;
Q9
航班号,数字与字母的组合,字母注意大写;Oh, it's Air Canada flight number AC936, from London Heathrow.…
Q10
数字信息,很长的数字串,且没有重复,考察考生对于数字的敏感度;Yes, it's a VISA card, and the number is 3303 8450 2045 6837

单选题最重要的是定位加找出同义替换内容,划出信号词来定位是永恒的话题。
此6道题均为单项选择题。
Q11
有若干数字干扰选项;需关注不同数字代表的不同含义,方能得出正确答案;Q11的信号词为organizing holiday听到and then twenty years ago, it bought a small number of campsites in the UK, and began offering camping holidays .(15 years和地点continental Europe对应,20 years和retail chain selling camping equipment对应都是数字干扰)。
Q12
考察most与majority的同义对应;信号词为most:France is where we have the majority of sites;Italy也是干扰选项听到是64 sites.
Q13
这是选择题中最具干扰性的一个选项。需要听出儿童每天可以做的活动。听到的内容为Each day kicks off with a sports match, perhaps football, or volleyball, followed by an hour of drama for everyone…,at afternoon, there is different art activity for each day of the week including a poster competition or model making。 each day与题干中every day相对应;在这里perhaps 说明在举例football和volleyball是体育运动的几种,但不一定是每天都有。同样下午的art activity的or 暗示了活动有可能是海报设计比赛或是制作模型,因此C并非是每天儿童都确定要做的活动。在这里不仅要关注信号词时间还需关注这些活动是否会确定每日开展。
Q14
关于时间的选择,稍微有干扰;需要听清楚不同时间发生的不同事件;信号词 we operate a “no noise” rule之后有Children's evening activities usually finish at 9.30, or occasionally 10, and from 10.30 holiday-makers are expected to be quiet in the areas
Q15
信号词为If you haven't organized an annual insurance policy中的insurance policy。之后在you'll need to take out the low-cost cover we offer and we require that you arrange this when you make your holiday reservation中找出选项中at the time of booking与录音中when you make your holiday reservation的对应内容.
Q16
需听清楚推荐人与被推荐人所能获得的不同优惠方式。录音中a thank -you gift与选项中a free gift相对应。Your friends can benefit from 10% off their holiday or can book a luxury tent for the price of a standard one是干扰选项。
接下来4道题为配对题。
重要的是要注意听到和barbecue相关的cook indoors,cool box相关的fridge,mops and buckets相关的washing facilities. 要开始留意地点所在地方。
Q17
录音中you can borrow a barbecue if you ask in advance for one to be made available, 中的 ask in advance与选项中available on request作对应;
Q 18
Inside 提示选择provided in all tents.
Q19
考察ask for与request的对应。
Q20
注意washing facilities是在 central areas,along with mops and buckets表明Mop and buck也在中心地点。

Q21
抓住信号词汇ideas和逻辑词汇also 在听到ideas定位21题的答案:Of course they bring different ideas, but it's also their attitudes and their experiences of learning. Diversity is important in these areas too. 从剑七公布的官方答案上可以发现,多数情况下可数名词的单复数均为正确答案;而以前则很强调单复数的形式。
Q22
抓住信号词personality :research has shown a lot of it comes down to personality 和逻辑词汇the other factor。并且通过后面的men and women do lots of things in different ways来证实gender或者sex.
Q23
On the positive side(信号词), exposure to such diversity helps encourage creativity which is generally an asset to a company.这题中原文中advantage被positive side替换。
接下来的4道题为单项选择题,有一定的难度。考察了考生对于同义转换的熟悉程度,以及对于干扰信息的识别能力,同时通过问题进行定位也很重要。
Q24
此类选择题题干的特点是信息不完整, 需要抓住employers should encourage workers这个信息的关键部分进行定位,当听到原文中What managers should be targeting is(替换了manager should encourage) those employees who can take the lead in a situation可知leaders与take the lead作对应;
Q25
I think one of the most important tasks of managers is to consider the needs of the individual on one hand and group co-operation and conformity on the other.(注意前一句的问话,many managers find the entire notion of encouraging individuality among their staff is far too hard.这句话提出了人力资源管理中职业经理人的一个方面的挑战,Janice的回答表达了她个人的更加深入的理解,抓住on one hand 与on the other hand 即可解题,与balance conflicting needs作对应)
Q26
Tutor的问话so Janice what kind of people should the company be looking for? 这一问题提示Q26开始了。之后学生回答中的think for themselves与答案A. think independently作对应;
Q27
at the beginning与early on作对应。注意干扰项C需要听到相关的细节also it should be something the individuals actually want and it isn’t something about money来排除选项c :increase financial incentives。
句子填空题
Q28
预测填写一个名词。原文but you also recognize the culture. 这里的but是信号词,之后必有答案,再者,根据定位their company’s___,所听即所得,答案填写culture.
Q29
give priority to profit与profit may be more important作对应,同时要注意信号词Changes in the workplace。
Q30
strain实际上在前一句有解释的内容,等到有了信号词changes, 很多考生实际上听不懂strain这样一个高难的雷人词汇,最佳方案为问题听完Q29之后马上听下一句,理解意思,做出总结,找出关键词汇personal stress:What is important is managers is able to deal with quite a high level of personal stress.( a high level替换了题目中的increased amount of , deal with替换了cope with)。同时听下一句证实During times of change they should be thinking not only about the strain on their staff but take time out to think of themselves.

31到35题属于笔记式填空题,考生需通过一些连接词把握讲座的节奏。如first, in the second part, focus on等。
Q31
通过field trip定位,听到seminar的2个层次,第一部分介绍contemporary research on rock art.第二部分and in the second part I'm going to give you some do's and don'ts for our fieldwork trip in April
Q32
空格前面的动词help表明后面名词填人相关的词汇。同时通过Earlier explanation和they are used to 预测这些是以前的理论和关于对engraving的解释:most scholars used to think that the purpose of these was simple and obvious: this rock art was like a school book with pictures to teach children about tracks。
Q33
But表明这些解释和推测有缺陷。听到but there were some mysteries和first定位32题的空格:you see the tracks are repeated, there are dozens of tracks for the same animal.
Q34
利用another mystery来定位:And another mystery - some of these unrealistic animals - that's in the engravings - seem to be half human.
Q35
利用原文中的rent explanation知道这是最近的理论发现。这里有非常典型的填空题的句型变换:They believed they could use magic to control the animals they had drawn。同时指出engraving用途并非是teach children about tracks而是magic.可以发现这里的填空题一方面需要从题看出脉络和逻辑,同时也需要理解句子意思来填写关键性的名词词汇。
这里最后一段有一个对于此段seminar的归纳:This shows you some of the dangers of coming from one culture to another ,as we’ll be doing, without understanding it fully. Scholars imagined children looked at rock art pictures to learn to track just because they themselves had learned skills from pictures.这里教授传递了一个重要的内容就是考古学的实地调查研究的时候要避免主观性,科研工作者不能主观臆断将自己文化中的特点转移到另外一种文化的解释中。此段即使没有出题但考生也需理解才能掌握seminar的精髓。
句子填空题,考察同义转换和定位
录音此段首句道出中心field work,同时有largest problem is damage by the visitors even though it’s usually unintentional.这里同上一部分的dos and don’ts联系起来,知道下面要讲注意事项。
Q36
look at与observe对应:Whenever you do go to a site, don't forget you can learn many things from observing at a distance instead of walking all over it.
Q37
预测应填写名词,所听即所得。
Q38
听到don’t make fire,知道这是don’t的一个事项。后面出现关键词It's really dangerous in dry areas, and you can easily burn priceless undiscovered material by doing so.
Q13
听前需要预测和定位是最后一班车The first boat leaves at 8 a.m. and the last one at 6.30 p.m.
Q14
定位词为Palace,之后听到At Stop A, if you have time, you can visit the fine 16th century palace here built for the king with its beautiful formal gardens.这里答案写出关键词garden即可,对于单复数不做要求。
Q15
这里语速很快,对考生的熟练度和听音要求比较高,同时应该根据Stop B. Why don't you visit Tower Restaurant with its wide range of refreshments?'中的Stop B定位,refreshments来验证单词的听音。同时要特别注意Tower Restaurant是专有名词需大写。
Q16
简单。This is a place where you can sit and enjoy the wonderful views over the old commercial and banking centre of the city. 中的wonderful替换题目中的good.
Q17
定位词最好能够选择bookshop,因为其他的部分都发生了句式的转化和动词的替换:There's an interactive Museum to visit here with a large shop which has a good range of local history books. good range of替换了原句中的specializing.
Q 18
答案7-screen和cinema相关
Q19 Q20
分别用专有名词 The Top Bus Company和 The Number One Sightseeing Tour做定位信号词。定位完成之后会很清晰的捕捉到信息Tours leave from 8.30 a.m. every 20 minutes和Buses depart from Central Station every five to six minutes from about 9 a.m. with the last bus at around 7 p.m.
词汇注释:

Section3
谈话场景:南极科研中心
人物关系: 访谈
话题:南极科研中心作用和南极公约
考题解析:
Q21
抓住信号词汇Christchurch,要知道这是新西南的一个地点.同时注意Section 3中的interviewer的提问: My first question is about the choice of location or the centre. Why Christchurch? Was it because of the climate?来定位第一题。Doctor回答中如果能够听到New Zealand is the second closest country to Antarctica and Christchurch is often used on Antarctica expeditions.就可以知道是在强调Christchurch的地理位置和南极接近。同时interviewer接着做了信息的confirm(证实):so it is because of where we are. geographical与it’s because of where we are对应。
Q22
看题干---划关键词Role ,扫题支分别是设备,经济帮助,确保研究的相关性。可以听到做南极的scientific base 作用。之后doctor的解释中如果可以抓住what scientists should take with them 和clothing warehouse就可以成功解题,科研站作为科学基地的一个作用是提供设备支持。equipment与what scientists should take with them对应。
选择A.
Q23
看题干---划关键词Visitors’ Centre ,扫题支分别是住宿,训练,展示作用。听到:since very few people will ever experience the Antarctic first hand, the visitors' centre aims to recreate the atmosphere of Antarctica。之后提到一个南极tent的展示给没有去过南极的人一个体验的机会。recreate与show people what Antarctica is like对应。
Q24
这个题关键要理解一个口语表达的方式be stuck by sth. 被...所迷惑这个表达在第四部分也出现了是一个强调的成分,突出南极的特点是美轮美奂:Yes, I have and each time I'm struck by the awesome beauty of the place。
Q25
看题干---划关键词cold.听出interviewer的问题是问为什么南极colder than North Pole.选择A 的考生是没有听出定语从句是在修饰North Pole:Well, unlike the North Pole, which is actually a frozen sea。之后出现关键词: shaped like: Antarctica is a land mass shaped like a dome, with the result that the winds blow down the slopes at speeds of up to 150 km an hour and that's what makes it so cold.在这里知不知道dome的意思不关键,重要的听出shaped like,shaped like,that's what makes it so cold,得出结论形状使南极很冷。
Q26
看题干---划信号词:another Continent.听到:because fossils and rocks have been discovered in Antarctica which are the same as those found in places such as Africa and Australia.这里的fossils and rocks替换了选项A中的geological evidence。
Q31
通过Matthews article和value定位,开始说自己开始读感觉put me off,没有兴趣读下去。高度注意之后的转折词But what I soon became struck by was the sheer volume of both observation and investigation he had done in many different sports and I felt persuaded that what he had to say would be of real interest.听到转折来定位,听懂volume就可以发现这是c选项size 的替换。
Q32
tactics与strategy对应;I think Matthews' findings will be beneficial, 听到beneficial 开始定位是题干中of value的同义表达。之后要看到前一句排除了B选项的帮助运动员克服缺点的方面肯定的是帮助他们找到适合自己的体育竞技策略,需要听到but more 和strategies: not so much in helping sportspeople to work on their weaker side, but more that they can help them identify the most suitable strategies to use in a given game.
Q33
利用coach的同义词trainer来定位可以看到说活人的评论是short-sighted和trainers should make use of insights from scientists,
Q34
具有很强的干扰,需要听懂findings后面的内容:keyboard和mixed-handedness相关,string player和one hand相关,Also those who started younger和 mixed-handed 相关。做这类题,要根据musician定位,之后做简单笔记辅助选择。
Q35
具有很强的干扰需听懂多个信息,apes’ right and left handedness is equal compared with humans ; Studies showed that apes consistently using the same hand fished out 30% more ants than those varying between the two.表示使用左右手的猿比单独使用一只手的猿使用树枝勾出的蚂蚁比例要少。
后为表格填空题。审题时看清表格的格式与排版,了解讲座的结构。填词时注意听连接词,把握节奏。
Q36
used与deployed对应:because a hockey stick must be deployed in two directions - it would be a drawback to have hand or eye favoring one side.
Q37
预测形容词,重点捕捉形容词。An interesting finding is that mixed-handed hockey players were significantly more confident than their single-handed counterparts.
Q38
听到Things are slightly different in racket sports like tennis,转到表格第二行, bigger area与larger field对应: This means that there is a bigger area of vision on the side where most of the action occurs.
Q39
需听懂句子意思。
Q40
Gymnastics定位转到第三行,important对应it aids balance: It's been found that cross hand-eye favoring is best. The predominant reason for this is because it aids balance - which is of course absolutely central to performance in this sport
Question 1
原文说in business studies,题目study business, 所听即所得,句式有倒装。
Question 2
原文说 I’ve been at uni for four years but I’m in the Third Year because I took last year off. 意思是从上大学起至现在又四年,但去年停学了一年,所以现在只是修大学第三年课程。此题难度在于有干扰信息four years,不过,之后马上又but一词,是典型的信号词,使用信号词原则,其后的third year才是正确答案。
Question 3
原文说at the Sports Centre, 题目中是in the Sports Centre,介词替换,但基本属于所听即所得的考察类型,要注意答案是地名,需要首字母大写。
Question 4
Cleaner,所听即所得。
Question 5
原文说It’s in the Library , not the Lab. 是属于典型的干扰系列考题,信息修正的情况,比较容易区分的。
Question 6
原文说I am in one of the Halls of Residence for post-graduate students, you know, International House.题目问address,初听很容易写halls of residence,但后面有强调语气提示词you know,所以答案应是后面的International House,因为是特有地名,注意大写。
Question 7
原文说Room B569- no sorry B659.和第五题一样,是干扰考题,信息修正的情况,较容易区分。
Question 8
Office Assistant, 所听即所得。
Question 9
原文说you’ll be required to deal with student enquiries and answer the phone, 题目说 respond to student enquiries and answer the phone, 这里有deal with 和 respond to 是同义表达的情况,答案不难填出,所听即所得。
Question 10
原文先说了一个时间 Friday morning, around ten?后面又说了一个时间how about 11.30? 答案是后者,使用最后原则。
Section 2
场景:旅游场景,是一个慈善机构的徒步旅行活动。
Question 11
选择题有干扰信息。原文提到了两个时间:we are organizing a ten-day holiday, from the sixth to the sixteenth of November,和另一个时间段 with eight days actual walking,意思是假期总时间是10天,但是徒步旅行的实际时间是8天,所以答案应选B。此题也可以根据最后原则解题,后出现的8天正确几率较高。
Question 12
此题相关录音有些混乱,先出现了一系列钱数,但是这些和答案关系不大,解题关键是把后面的百分比听清楚: 35% will go on your expenses, and that leaves 65% guaranteed to go to the library. 题目问的是捐给慈善基金的比率,所以选C。
Question 13
此题考查干扰项的区分和同义表达的理解。干扰信息是last year, we helped train teachers for the disabled,答案正确信息是this year we are focusing on the pupils,后面还有补充信息 each of the walkers’ sponsorship money will go to help an individual special needs pupil,这里的pupil是信息点,选项A是student,与pupil是同义替换表达,是答案。
Question 14
原文说However, you need to be extremely fit,这和选项C already very fit是同义替换表达。
Question 15
原文说we ask that you only walk with a small rucksack with needs for the day,意思是只带一个小背包,装当天需要的日常用品,所以选B. some of your belongings。 其他两项都太绝对化。
Question 16
此题需要辨别干扰信息。原文说the area has been famous for centuries for making beautiful carpets, although recently there has been a trend to move into weaving blankets and wood carving,三个选项中,carpets, weaving blankets, carving wood都出现了,容易选错。有两种方法可以避免误选:其一,关键词法——题干问的是long tradition of,这和原文的been famous for centuries是同义表达,所以相应的应该选carpets这个选项;其二——信号词法,这里出现的是伪信号词although,它后面的信息不会是正确信息,对应的另外一句的信息making carpets才是正确答案。
Question 17-20
首先看题目要求write ONE WORD ONLY, 所以17-20题都是填一个词,而且根据题意,填写的一个词应该是地点名词。所以听题时有的放矢地去把握一个地点名词即可。
Question 17
原文听到On Day Three,正好与题目时间要求对应,其后听到walking through the enormous Katiba Forest,因为只填一个词,所以就填写核心词汇 forest。
Question 18
原文说Day Five休息,然后going to the spectacular Kumi Temple with twelfth-century carvings, 这必然是Day Six这天的活动,题干将内容简化了: see a temple with old carvings,填空时只需选取最核心的词汇temple填写即可。
Question 19
原文提到swim in the Parteh Falls. This is the highest waterfall. 题目却对原文不动声色地进行了改变swim in a _____, 这里填的一定是个单数的可数名词,不可能是原文swim in 之后的Parteh Falls, 只可能是后面对其解释的waterfall,最为贴切,是正确答案。
Question 20
原文说Day 9 is much easier, with part of the day spent in a village,这里出现了地点名词village,而题目问的是Day 9, visit a _____,词汇与原文略有改变,但答案只可能是village。
Vocabulary
entail v. 承担, 需要
rucksack n.. 背包
Section 3
场景:关于海洋研究的报告。
Question 21
此题所听即所得。原文说It looks a bit like a cigar,题目换成shaped like a cigar, 考察cigar这个单词能否拼出。
Question 22
与上题一样,所听即所得。
23-25 标签题。
解题前,先看清要求,write ONE WORD AND/OR A NUMBER,所有空都只填写一个单词。
划出关键词,并预测答案词性。23题预测应是填动词的过去分词形式,24题填数词,应该加长度单位,25题预测填写名词。
Question 23
原文: each of the floats is dropped in the ocean form a boat at as set point and activated from a satellite.这里的动词activated正好是过去分词形式,其后from a satellite和原文的by satellite也是同义表达,所以答案确定为它,但是词汇的拼写也是难点,activate 是激活的意思。
Question 24
此题较容易定位,原文中只听到长度数词the average is fifty kilometres,所以填写50kms即可。
Question 25
题目将原文说法缩减了,原文说most importantly in salinity, that’s salt levels, and the changes in temperature.题目中则是changes in salinity and temperature.
26-30 配对题,这种题出题策略是录音表达与原文表达会同义替换。
Question 26
原文是倒装表达形式,Some of the data has already helped in completing projects. For example, our understanding of the underlying causes of El Nino. 这里的understanding of El Nino是例子,属于already helped的情况,所以选A,at present 和already helped是一致的表达。
Question 27
原文的but the results are still a log way off. 和long-term future是同义表达,所以选C。
Question 28
原文的that’s happening right now和at present是同义表达,所以选A。
Question 29
原文We’ll be seeing the results of that quite soon和in the near future是同义表达,所以选B。
Question 30
原文的still a long way in the future和in the long-term future是同义表达,所以选C。

Section 4
场景:关于酒店的管理的讲座。
Question 31
A、C两项是干扰信息,在原文中都有类似的信息出现,但是和题干的意思不相符合。如A中的facilities,在原文中有with its contemporary technology相对应, C项中的high costs在原文中有paid a great deal of money相对应,但题干问的是how a guest feel,那么对应感觉情绪的词是the most expensive surroundings can seem empty and dispiriting, 和all is not well,所以选B,depressed by the experience,这里的depressed 和原文的dispiriting是同义词,都表示沮丧,气馁的意思。
Question 32
原文表达为underestimate the most basic needs of their customers-the need to feel at home in surroundings which are both familiar and inviting.题目中的overlook the need 和underestimate the need是一致的,而B选项中的a comfortable environment和原文的feel at home是同义表达,所以选B。A选项在原文完全未提及,C选项的individual and personal welcome与原文也相差甚远。
Question 33
此题没有干扰信息,只是同义替换:原文的the research cover a whole range of different hotel types和a wide variety of hotels是同义替换,所以选A。
Question 34
原文: the outside the hotel building simply didn’t matter和C项的no effect whatsoever同义表达。B项的limited effect则表示有限的影响,程度不及原文深。
35-40. 填空题,先看题目要求write ONE WORD ONLY,然后每个空前后的关键词划出来,并且预测答案的词性。听的时候注意听此词性的词,并且准确地抓住一个词。
Question 36
此题预测填名词,原文表达为a sleek modern kitchen that allows guests to cook and entertain,其中就kitchen是重要名词,并且题目中stylish ______for guests to use,此处stylish 和sleek modern 是同义表达。所以填写kitchen。
Question 37
原文表达是establish a trend all over the world,题目基本是同义替换表达set a trend throughout the world。
Question 38
此题预测填动词,原文说hotels exploit people’s need to escape the predictability of their everyday life,此处的 predictability of their everyday life 和题目中的ordinary routine life是同义表达,所以填的动词为之前的escape。
Question 39
原文的表达为as if we return to being a baby,题目为like a ____,as if和like是同义词,根据定位原则和预测原则都可得到答案baby,另外一种解法是根据填空题的最后原则,填写最后的名词baby。
Question 40
原文说到little treats- like the miniscule bottles of shampoo and tiny bars of soap, the chocolate on your pillow, 题目问small treats的例子是cosmetics and ____, 此题容易一不小心填成shampoo或者soap,但是这些都是属于cosmetics的范畴,所以要填之后出现的名词例子chocolate。

4. Advanced English
题目关键词是course,所以在录音中搜索到course之后开始写答案,课程为Advanced English,此答案提示明显,在停顿之后,很简单。
基本功:对各种常见科目词汇要非常熟悉。同时对表示level的单词有所了解。
9. The train
关键词为transport,听见bus之后立刻出现but直接丢掉,之后听见the train便是答案。
10. this afternoon
关键词为when,预读结果为填时间状语,在录音中直接听到答案。
基本功:时间状语往往是关键词,敏感词,以及我们最喜欢考的答案。所以平日要加强对时间状语的敏感度。

题目解析
11. C
看题干---关键词为kind即旅行的种类以及人物Sally;
扫题支---三个短小精悍且完全排他的选择支,简单题!听到Sally之后立刻细听,听见wearing your most comfortable shoes and that you can keep up the pace立刻判断答案,既然要鞋子舒服当然是要走路了。
基本功①:学会判断此类短小精悍且完全排他的三选一一定不会有陷阱,基本都是完全同义替换,所以安心等同义词和同义表达法。
基本功②:此处会听见tour of the Bicentennial Park,生词!?大惊,完全没有必要。记住,题目中出现的生词是做定位用,而录音中出现的生词直接忽略。(当然,你的词汇量可不能太低哦)
12. B
看题干---关键词为original building,意为这房子之前是用来干嘛的。
扫题支---又是三个短小精悍且完全排他的选择支,简单题!听到used to立刻反应答案来了。立即听见factory,初步定答案为B,继续听见originally warehouses and storehouses,进一步肯定答案。

看题干---关键词为local residents和wanted to use,意为当地居民的意愿是什么。
扫题支---还是三个短小精悍且完全排他的选择支,简单题!录音中听见local community定位答案即将出现,然后听见wanted to use for recreation,就可以选择答案A了,如果有同学不认识这个单词(当然,这个单词是雅思必掌握词汇哦),那么后面还有提示,outdoor activities来ensure这个答案。

看题干---关键词为tower和center,问tower在哪里的中间。

15. Car Park
我们跟随录音中说到的地点来走,Tower east Olympic Site Indoor Arena
Stadium Swimming Pool train lines Station Car Park,恩,最后一个就是图上没有的,直接填就好了。地图题切忌东瞄西瞄,静静的跟着录音走就好。
基本功①:地图题最重要的是看完地图上所有的信息(包括建筑名,河流,铁轨,方向标,以及所有特殊的图形),以及搞清楚路线。
基本功②:15-17题是填写地点,所以一会儿所有录音中出现的地点,若是图上没有的,都请写下来,以防是答案。
16. Rose Garden
继续走,south pond west bench rose garden,恩,记下来就好。若不敢肯定是答案,边速记边继续听,north,哦,这里就已经讲完了,所以garden就是答案。
17.Cafe
继续走,north lake island boat shed café,直接写答案。
19. biology lesson
定位词frog pond,outdoor classroom,在录音中听见outdoor classroom a favourite spot for school parties,很多同学就此写答案,未听见话锋一转,接着来2个敏感词,now most often used by primary schools for biology lessons。
此题属难题,前面的parties是一个很大的迷惑陷阱,而且之后的lessons 的发音由于澳音的音变很多同学已经反应不过来。

27. media room
首先看题目要求,two words!
定位词是overhead projector,预读结果为来源,名词or 词组。we’ll get that from the media room,直接写答案就可以了。问题是此处发音稍显怪异,d音发的近乎dʒ音,而且快,很多考生来不及反应就过了。应对方法是当然最好是平日听一次就熟悉其发音,积累经验。考场上可以利用音标速记法先把类似发音记下来,然后再慢慢琢磨,只要词汇量够基本可以琢磨出来。
基本功①:如果空处相隔很远,可以安心写答案。但是一旦空与空之间较近,一定要速记答案,以免痛苦失分。比如此题28空可多琢磨,可是29题就必须果断记录or放弃,因为其与30题紧邻。
基本功②:速记四法:一是记缩写,但是要记得是自己回头能够认出来的缩写;二是记中文,咱们对母语的反应和书写速度是可以保障的;三是记音标,很多单词词频低因而一下子可能反应不过来,赶紧把发音记下来,等录音完了慢慢琢磨;四是划图形,尽量节省时间。

定位词是map of West Africa,顺利的听见了resources room。关键是要听出复数s,要不此题也不能得分。

题目解析
31. B
看题干---划关键词main topic,即找本文主要干什么。
扫题支---都有共同词汇MSG,所以只看不同点:history历史、way it works如何发挥作用、where it is used用在哪里。
此题需要思考归纳才能得出结论,所以一定要小心,且记得随时记录有意义的动词名词,以防难题出现。录音开始貌似都在总起,有点晕,但是突然听见了敏感词more importantly,之后说的直接判断答案即可,前面的内容不用再纠结。how to enhance直接对应the way MSG works,答案是B。
32. C
看题干---划关键词1908,Japan。
扫题支---A是制作MSG,B是开始使用K物,C是发现G物。
耐心等待1908的出现,又听见actually discovered to be更加可以确定答案为C。
33. A
看题干---划关键词change,manufacturer,1956。
扫题支---A大规模生产,B日本人开始从天然原料中提取,C越来越贵。
听到1956就开始兴奋,但是前面是一个时间段,不是发生在1956这个时间点上的事情,又听见一个1956才是答案出没处,而且此处的1956是强调句型,这也是应该很敏感的句型。industrial production increased dramatically和A项很对应,选择A。
34. water
首先看清题目要求,two words!
笔记填空题往往是最简单的填空题,所以顺着录音填就可以了。
MSG的成分足一报出,终于轮到第三个water。
35. meat
填空题最喜欢看见and,并列关系,一会儿凡是听见and就开始记录吧。定位词foods和protein,此题很简单,录音直接报such as meat and cheese。
生词与重点表达法解析
1. monosodium glutamate (MSG)是味精,用化学成分来表示其名称,确实有些骇人,一般情况下,非化学专业学生是不能猜出来的。因为有很多东西在国外没有,所以在翻译的时候很头疼,一大部分被音译成新单词(多为文体艺术类词汇,比如kung fu功夫,oolong tea乌龙茶,tofu豆腐,typhoon台风,Confucius孔子),一小部分被翻成各种成分的组合(多为化学物质,比如MSG味精),大家平日里可多积累类似知识,对雅思听力和阅读很有帮助。

kombu = konbu 海带

He also patented the manufacture of monosodium glutamate.作者: lekongwen 时间: 2009-7-14 18:38
