二 单选题的做题方法

在做单选题的时候,考生可能会出现以下状况:

录音太快了,还没有意识到答案出现了,录音就结束了。

录音太长了,好像每句都听懂了,但是却记不住。

似乎听懂了,但是三个选项好像都对(或者都不对)。

很确定选哪一个,结果是错的。

其实这些都是考生在考试过程中常出现的问题,那么如何利用高效的解题步骤来解决单选题呢?

1 精读题干。 录音开始前通常会给考生30秒左右的准备时间,为了做到有目的、有准备地应对,考生需要仔细阅读题干。以《剑桥雅思官方真题集14》Test 2-Part 2中的11~15题为例,5道单选题的题干均给出了前半句话,需要考生选择后半句,那么这些题干里有哪些信息是需要考生掌握的呢?

11 Before Queen Elizabeth I visited the castle in 1576,

12 In 1982, the castle was sold to

13 In some of the rooms , visitors can

14 In the castle park , visitors can

15 At the end of the visit, the group will have

从题干中考生可以预测与答案相关的信息:

11题:答案会出现在不容替换的关键词Queen Elizabeth I和1576附近。

12题:城堡在1982年被卖给了谁?

13题:在城堡的一些屋子里,游客可以做什么?

14题:在城堡的公园里,游客可以做什么?

15题:参观结束,旅行团将要做什么?

以上是在录音开始前要掌握的信息。有的考生可能觉得30秒钟获取这么多信息是不现实的,其实不然。那么,考生该如何获取与答案相关的信息呢?

(1)不要去读选项。因为时间有限且干扰项对考生的影响较大,极有可能所有选项都会出现在录音中,所以为了避免做题时先入为主,不读选项是明智的选择。

(2)提炼关键词。参考以上题干的黑体部分,题干的人名、地名和时间这些定位信息是一定要注意的;同时也需要注意表示时间顺序的副词;注意表示人物态度、意图、情感的形容词;注意表示实际动作的动词。

2 依次找答案。 选择题是按顺序出题的,所以录音开始后顺着题号找答案,并注意做题的节奏:

(1)录音开始时,找出题干关键词并依次扫读选项,划出选项中的生词但不要停留。

(2)遇到听不懂的细节也不要停留思考太久,直接跳过。

(3)每一题的答案相隔不会太远,如果不太确定本题答案,快速移至下一题。

(4)答案一般在题干关键词前后出现,注意关键词很可能被同义替换。

(5)正确的选项不太可能是原词重现,一般是同义替换。在选择题中,同义转换尤为常见,题干、正确选项和干扰项都有可能出现同义转换。

3 亡羊补牢。 如果出现漏听的情况,不要思考太久,也不必过于担心,调整状态进入下一部分。誊写答案的时候一般时间会比较充裕,此时再去回忆看看能否有些思路。实在没有印象,考生还可以进行大胆猜测!这里有一些提升猜题命中率的Tips:

(1)雅思听力选择题考查的是考生识别同义替换的能力,所以在选答案时要采取反套路,听到什么就要慎选什么,即不能在录音中听到什么就选什么。

(2)语气较为绝对的选项慎选。如果在选项中出现了一些意思很绝对的词,如every、all、always、only、merely等,可以适当进行排除。

(3)如果在题干关键词之后连续出现了两个甚至三个选项,那么最后一个出现的更有可能是答案。

请按此答题思路,再听一遍录音,完成答题后核对答案。

答案 11. B 12. C 13. C 14. B 15. A

下面我们归纳了上题中的同义替换,注意题干信息(黑体部分)和选项信息(下划线部分)与录音的对应:

11. Before Queen Elizabeth I visited the castle in 1576, a new building was constructed for her.

原文 However, when Queen Elizabeth I announced that she was going to visit the castle in 1576 it was beginning to look a bit run down, and it was decided that rather than repair the guest rooms, they’d make a new house for her out of wood next to the main hall.(句子结构转换)

12. In 1982, the castle was sold to an entertainment company.

原文 However, by 1982 the Fenys family could no longer afford to maintain the castle, even though they received government support, and they put it on the market. It was eventually taken over by a company who owned a number of amusement parks... (同义表达替换和句式转换相结合)

13. In some of the rooms , visitors can see models of historical figures moving and talking.

原文 ... you’ll find that in the state rooms there are life-like moving wax models dressed in costumes of different periods in the past ...(同义表达替换和句式转换相结合)

Nowadays the old zoo buildings are used for public displays of paintings and sculpture. (同义表达替换和举例式同义替换,paintings和sculpture是展览的具体内容)

15. At the end of the visit , the group will have afternoon tea in the conservatory.

原文 Now, you’re free to wander around on your own until 4.30, but then at the end of our visit we’ll all meet together at the bottom of the Great Staircase. We’ll then go on to the long gallery, where there’s a wonderful collection of photographs showing the family who owned the castle a hundred years ago having tea and cakes in the conservatory —and we’ll then take you to the same place, where afternoon tea will be served to you.(句式转换,出现了从句和主被动的替换) YrLa96Tz3bcdRT+t2lC4jePS+WL9qGkZ4hMAT8vrgvD3qrU04Bh9MEYD7F5xOTqY
