本系列导读:在雅思听力中有许多词语非常的重要,如在试卷上出现的关键词,在听力过程中变化的同义词等。但是有一种词语在听力过程中却往往会忽略,这些词语在读的过程中往往会弱化,因此很容易听漏,然而在理解句子的时候这些词语却非常的重要,需要考生重点注意。这些词语就是要提及的小词。
PART 1 重要性
并列和顺接
第一个印入我们眼帘的就是and。这个词语我们在刚接触到英语的时候我们就认识了。and主要是表并列和顺接关系。这个词语广泛用于各种英语的句子中。
如:并列:... However, after the axe had been chipped into shape, they needed water and sand for grinding and polishing ...
顺接:... You pay a 250 joining fee and then its 450 ...
两个意思之间的连接必须用and;句子之间的顺接也可以用and;某些表示条件、结果甚至是某些因果都可以用and。
同义互换
雅思最重要的一个现象就是同意互换,尤其在听力过程中,为了增加难度许多词语并不会出现原词。那么我们来看看and会如何做同意互换呢。
1. It is possible to hire _______ and _______.
Audio Scripts: And you can hire laptops ... as well as printers ...
2. Cardboard, coloured pens and a _______.
Audio Scripts: ... and coloured each one in using different colours, then you thread a piece of string ... So wed need some string as well.
当然and还可以转换为together with, not only ... but also ...等等,但是无论怎么互换最后换到的词语都比and复杂,这个实际上变相的降低了听力的难度,因此在许多情况下,当试卷上出现and时,在听力中并不会做互换。换句话说,如果在试卷上看到了and,并且要填写的答案在and周围的话,我们就可以刻意去听and,这样答案也就出来了。
E.G.: Float dropped into ocean and _______by satellite.
Audio Scripts: Each of the floats is dropped in the ocean ... and activated from a satellite.
通过这个题目我们可以注意到,我们在填对这个答案的时候几乎都可以不用知道float, satellite甚至是答案activated的意思,只需要将and后面的动词写下来就可以了。这个大大增加了and这个词语的重要性。
E.G.: Swimming aids: fins and ______.
Audio Scripts: ... sharks are very quick swimmers. This is made possible by their fins, one set at the side ..., and the tail also help the shark move forward quickly.
我们发现在fins的后面加了一句解释的话,在听力过程中往往会导致听漏,但是后面出现的and就是非常好的而定位点。
PART 2 两大难点
语音难点
那么既然and这么重要,在我们听力中会有什么问题呢?首先,提醒考生们要注意,and这个词语本身并不是说话的重点,因此在说话的过程中,这个词语并不会完全读成/nd/而会弱化成/其次,由于and是爆破音/d/结尾,当后面的单词由辅音开头的时候还会继续爆破,此时and仅仅读作/再次and是元音开头,若前面一个单词是辅音结尾,还会产生连读,更加增加了这个词被听出来的情况。
E.G.: Highlights: music and ______.
Audio Scripts: ... but the best part is the music and lighting.
这边的and弱化了,但是还是能听出在music后面有一个/n/。
E.G.: ... because it had water, raw materials and fuels such as ______ and ______.
Audio Scripts: The water and the availability of raw materials ... and also the abundance of local fuels, like coal and firewood, ...
此题可以通过fuels来定位,同时like和such as做同义词互换,也就是正确答案就是后面的并列关系的名词,但是此题的难点就是coal and firewood被读作/kuln fаiwud/,这样就导致无法听出正确答案了。
速记难点
当and连接的2个词语都要写出来的时候,不仅语音上面有难度,在速记上的要求也提高了。
E.G.: Site One: Problems with _______ and _______.
Audio Scripts: Site One was unpopular because of traffic and parking problems.
New technology allowed the production of goods made of ______ and ______.
Audio Scripts: The technology they introduced meant that metal and leather goods were produced there for the first time.
这两个例子都能看出来通过and定位很容易能找到答案,但是需要写的两个词语出现比较快,而且由于and的弱化,以及句子中的倒置,更加增加了填写的难度。
PART 3 注意事项
虽然and本身读音为/nd/,在句子中弱化的读音却是/n/不会由于爆破而读成/n/,因此我们在听力过程中不要听错。
E.G. Video Presentation: Go to _______
Audio Script: ... Now, after the break well be moving a different location for a video presentation ... and there you will be shown a video ... called Safety at Work.
此题的答案是Safety at Work这个地方读作/seifti w:k/。这边的答案一定要注意不是safety and work/seifti n w:k/,虽然两个读音极像。
总的来说,我们可以发现,大部分在试卷上出现的and都会在文字答案中读出,尤其是需要填写的是两个答案是由and连接的时候,但是由于and本身的原因,在听力中较难听到,因此建议考生们在练习中需重点注意and的弱读,以及当and和别的词汇连读时产生的问题。
