1、 相似排除
考官在設置考點時故意將音頻中部分原詞放到選項中,并且往往跟在題干關鍵后出現(xiàn)引誘考生出錯。然后把正確選項同義(近義)改寫成音頻中的內容。
例如:
-Why has James chosen to do a case study on the company Furniture Rossi?
A. It has enjoyed global success
B. It is still in a development phase
C. It is an example of a foreign company being rebranded for Australia.
音頻‘Furniture Rossi is an Australian company, got plans to expand into foreign markets…’雖然音頻中出現(xiàn)了選項c中的部分原詞,但是表達的句義與選項c并不相同,‘aiming to build a global brand…’,出現(xiàn)A選項原詞句義不符,答案句 ‘it is gong through a transition…’、transition與development phase構成替換。
可見如果我們把握住出題者設置陷阱的手段,就可以通過相似排除的方法提升答題正確率。
2、時態(tài)排除
通過觀察不難發(fā)現(xiàn),一般情況下選擇題所考察的時態(tài)均為一般現(xiàn)在時,偶爾考察過去或將來時的題干上會有明確的時態(tài)標示詞,既然??疾煲话悻F(xiàn)在時那么音頻中描述過去或者將來的內容則為干擾信息。
常見過去時路標詞:was/were、V+ed…thought、use to、 in the past…
常見將來時路標詞:plan/intend to do sth、 thinking to、 aiming to、 next time…
例如:
-The entertainment will be a
A. Live band
B. Comedian
C. Magician
音頻‘we were expecting a live band…we had hoped that the resident magician who worked here through the summer would be able to help out but they were not keen on the idea…’由音頻可知A和C選項都為過去時可以通過時態(tài)法進行排除。
3 并列排除
這一方法是在解答聽力單選題中最好用的方法。即一般情況下在三個選項中,如果其中有兩個選項由and或者or連接,那么這兩個選項一般均不是答案。
例如:
-Local newspapers have raised worries about
A. The late opening date
B. The cost of the project
C. The size of the facilities
音頻‘also、 just in case you were wondering、 we’re on schedule for June 15th opening date and well within budget…’其中on schedule對應A選項,within budget對應B選項,兩句由and連接可知答案為C。
