一、答案類高頻同義轉(zhuǎn)換詞
標(biāo)題的意思是文中以下詞匯在聽力原文中高頻出現(xiàn),而且是以答案形式出現(xiàn)的。但是我們知道雅思聽力的游戲規(guī)則是“所聽即所得”,那么這類題目一般以選擇題形式出現(xiàn)。下面我們對這些重點詞匯或詞組做一下總結(jié)。
A. wildlife = animals / plants / vegetation
實例回放:Cambridge8 Test2 Section2的20題:The shop contains books about: A. animals B. local traditions C. the history of the park. 聽力原文:there is a wide selection of books on wildlife...同樣的替換在Cambridge8 Test1 Section3的27題,這次聽力原文中作者說到:I’d like to see something about the local wildlife, and vegetation too. 選項還是animal。據(jù)統(tǒng)計,這個同義替換在劍橋中出現(xiàn)了四次,它的重要性可見一斑。
B. currently = at present / at the moment
實例回放:Cambridge8 Test2 Section2的19題:What can you see in the park at the present time? A. the arrival of wild birds B. fruit tree blossom C. a demonstration of fishing 聽力原文:for example John Havers, our expert fly fisherman, is currently giving displays on the lake. 同樣這組替換詞在劍橋中出現(xiàn)頻率也非常高。
C. book = reserve; booking = reservation
實例回放:Cambridge9 Test1 Section2的19和20多項選擇:Which TWO pieces of information does the speaker give about the fitness test? A. You need to reserve a place. 原文:There are only a limited number of places available for this, so to make a booking phone... 特別強調(diào),這對替換詞在劍橋中不僅以選擇題形式出現(xiàn),其中reservation / booking也經(jīng)常在填空題中出現(xiàn),比如:Cambridge6 Test2 Section2的17題,同樣的Cambridge7 Test1 Section1的第5題。所以請同學(xué)們予以足夠的重視。
D. a range of = a variety of
實例回放:Cambridge7 Test3 Section4的33題:The company focused their research on: A. a wide variety of hotels B. large, luxury hotel chains C. exotic holiday hotels 聽力原文:The company’s research covered a whole range of different hotel types... 同樣的替換在Cambridge4 Test4 Section2的13題的非答案部分。另外要注意在Insights into IELTS的練習(xí)題里range曾經(jīng)作為答案出現(xiàn)。
E. often = frequently
看似很簡單的替換,但是考試中卻頻繁出現(xiàn)。實例回放:Cambridge8 Test3 Section4的31題:Compared to introducing new business processes, attempts to copy existing processes are: A. more attractive B. more frequent C. more straightforward. 聽力原文:It’s a less glamorous activity than pure innovation, but it actually happens more often, as a matter of fact. 同樣的在Official IELTS Practice materials中的40題出現(xiàn)了詞組替換詞。
F. convert= change
實例回放:Cambridge8 Test3 Section1的10題:Which TWO facilities in the district of Devon Close are open to the public at the moment? A. museum B. concert hall C. cinema D. ... 原文:The only one (cinema) closed down last year, and it’s now in the process of being converted into a film museum. 如果學(xué)生知道這組同義替換,那么就可以用排除法,選出正確答案。另外convert在Cambridge9 Test3 Section4的36題附近“客串”過背景單詞。
G. complex = complicated
實例回放:IELTS Practice Test7 Section2的13題:Jack works with some advanced cyclists who want to develop: A. international competitive riding skills B. knowledge of advanced equipment C. confidence in complex road systems. 原文:We do complete beginner and also advanced courses, that’s for urban cyclists who want to do with the things like riding in the streets with complicated intersections, and things like that. 值得一提的是,complex作為名詞是綜合設(shè)施,復(fù)合體的意思,它在劍橋也同樣作為背景單詞出現(xiàn)過,如:entertainment complex、sports complex。希望考生注意擴(kuò)充自己的詞匯。
H. maximum = up to; minimum = start from
這兩對詞很容易記,此處不再舉例。
二、背景單詞類高頻同義轉(zhuǎn)換
這類詞匯雖然不如第一類直接作為答案,但是一般這類詞的附近就是答案了。而且如果這類詞經(jīng)常在背景里“打醬油”,它們一旦出現(xiàn)了,答案也就不遠(yuǎn)了。
A. disadvantage = drawback / negative feature
實例回放:Cambridge8 Test1 Section38題:But a two-dimensional map will always have some ____. 聽力原文:But there is a drawback.... And that means there’ll always be a certain degree of distortion on a map.
那么相反的一組同義替換詞就是:advantage = benefit / positive feature 這兩組在劍橋中是屢見不鮮。
B. focus on = concentrate on / specialize in 這對替換詞在劍九以及雅思練習(xí)題中經(jīng)常出現(xiàn)。
C. majority = most / main 大部分
D. neighborhood = surroundings 周邊環(huán)境
E. suburb = outskirts 郊區(qū)
F. cope with = deal with 處理;對付
G. species = breed 物種
H. important = essential / crucial / central 重要
I. enrollment = registration 注冊
J. ahead of time= ahead of schedule = in advance 提前
到此為止,雅思聽力中的高頻同義轉(zhuǎn)換詞已經(jīng)給各位烤鴨們總結(jié)的差不多了,當(dāng)然這并不是全部,我們會總結(jié)出更多的同義詞組。Anyway,希望同學(xué)們在考前對這些詞組做到滾瓜爛熟,考試中做到耳聰目明,無論這些詞作為答案還是客串,你都能很順利地把它們的原形揪出來,這樣你的雅思聽力就胸有成竹了。
