雅思听力考试的瞬间性和暂时性导致很多学生感觉做题过程很“糊涂”,一个个英文单词就像一个个烟雾弹一样,让人听得不知所以然
烟雾分析---填空题
接下来,朗阁雅思培训中心将通过一个例子来分析一下雅思听力中填空部分的总体出题思路和特征。
【典型范例】 Man: I’ll take the suit, it fits me really well, and while I’m at it, I would like the tie and the shoes as well.
Woman: What about these nice socks?!
看完这个对话如果给自己一个出雅思题的机会,那么你的思路是什么呢?是What’s the relationship between the speakers? 还是Where does the conversation take place? 这样的思路都不是“很雅思”。按照雅思考试的出题思路,较有可能的题目形式会是:
【典型范例】 Complete the sentences below.
Write NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS for the answer.
The woman suggested the man to choose ……… .
范例剖析: 此处答案自然是socks。

出题思路一: 所听即所得
由这一个例子,我们能够提炼出一个重要的雅思考试填空题出题思路,对于答案本身而言没有太多的推理,没有演绎,而是纯粹的所听即所得。
出题思路二: “明显特征”填空
同选择题一样,填空题中,一类比较明显的答案形式就是人名,国家,地址和数字等“明显特征”考点内容。此类填空的内容相对较为简单,答案也较容易捕捉,尤其在个人信息填写类型中较为突出。
【典型范例】
Accommodation Request Form
Name: Sara Lim
Age: 23
Length of time in Australia: 1 ……………………………….
Present address: Flat 1,
539, 2 …………………….. Road
Canterbury 2036
Present course 3 ………………………………. English
Accommodation required from: 4 ………………………………,
7th September
(选自 Cambridge 4 Test 3 Section 1 Question 1-4)
Accommodation Request Form
Name: Sara Lim
Age: 23
Length of time in Australia: 1 ……………………………….
Present address: Flat 1,
539, 2 …………………….. Road
Canterbury 2036
Present course 3 ………………………………. English
Accommodation required from: 4 ………………………………,
7th September
(选自 Cambridge 4 Test 3 Section 1 Question 1-4)
范例剖析: 上例是一个note completion, 题为数字考点,第二题为地址考点,第三题为学科,第四题则是时间日期考点
出题思路三: 同义转换
看过了前两个填空出题思路,好像难度不大,那么大家会想,填空题真正的难点在哪里?答案是:定位。另外,很多考生会觉得雅思听力看答案本身都很简单,为什么自己做题时就听不到,答案还是:定位。而朗阁雅思培训中心分析认为导致定位难的一点非常重要的因素就是题目和原文之间的“同义转换”。
【典型范例】
The spontaneous eruption was caused by long-term. . . . . .
The spontaneous eruption was caused by long-term. . . . . .
范例原文: This is what we called “spontaneous eruption”, which could have been generated by prolonged movement.
范例解析: 答案依据“所听即所得”原则是movement,但我们在听的时候定位不到和long-term或caused by一模一样的词,而是generated by和prolonged。
出题思路四: 句式转换
句式转换是导致考生定位受阻的又一大重要因素。例如,在原文中经常会通过调换连接词前后分句的次序,将填空前的信号词“后置”,而考点信息则发生“前置”。
【典型范例】
Saving for the future
Research indicates that many women only think about their financial future when a 36. ……….. occurs. This is the worst time to make decisions.
(选自 Cambridge 5 Test 1 Section 4 Question 36)
Research indicates that many women only think about their financial future when a 36. ……….. occurs. This is the worst time to make decisions.
(选自 Cambridge 5 Test 1 Section 4 Question 36)
范例原文: The research indicates that at present for women it takes a crisis to make them think about their future financial situation. But of course this is the very worst time for anyone to make any important decisions.
范例剖析: 题干句子和原文结构发生了较大的变化,题干中的women only think about their financial future when a……. 在原文中出现的是……at present for women it takes a crisis to make them think about their future financial situation……此题答案为crisis。
出题思路五: 干扰信息
每一篇雅思听力其中包含的关键信息点不可能仅仅是所需要回答的部分,尤其阅读量和难度都较大的填空,比如summary completion,其一个段落上下所包含的关键信息少则七八个,多则十几、二十个。
【典型范例】
Complete the summary below.
Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS AND/OR A NUMBER for each answer.
Saving for the future
When investing in stocks and shares, it is suggested that women should put a high proportion of their savings in 40. ……….. In such ways, women can have a comfortable, independent retirement.
(选自 Cambridge 5 Test 1 Section 4 Question 40)
Complete the summary below.
Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS AND/OR A NUMBER for each answer.
Saving for the future
When investing in stocks and shares, it is suggested that women should put a high proportion of their savings in 40. ……….. In such ways, women can have a comfortable, independent retirement.
(选自 Cambridge 5 Test 1 Section 4 Question 40)
范例原文: It is usually advised that at least 70% of a person’s savings should be in low-risk investments but for the rest, financial advisors often advise taking some well-informed risks.
范例解析: 上例共有两个关键信息点,分别是由强调句式“it is …… that”和转折信号词but引导。此处我们需要筛选出来的实际填空内容就只有强调句式后的low-risk investments,之后的转折信号词所引导的则是干扰信息,混淆视听。
综上所述,朗阁雅思培训中心提醒考生不管是填空题还是选择题,不论是单选题还是复选题,出题者较主要的目的在于考察考生对于所听内容的理解程度,而其较主要的检验方式是通过大量的“信息转述”来达到的,也就是说,听力中“信息转换”能力的强弱直接决定了考生成绩,因此这是备考突破的重点之一。而就填空题而言,另一重要的突破点则是单词拼写。
