看过雅思听力训练丛书的雅思童鞋们应该发现了雅思听力有很多比较考点,针对这种题型,就要有目的性,做好有的放矢。
第一类:直接比较
例1 剑7 Test 2 Q 34
A German study showed there was greater mixed handedness in musicians who
A started playing instruments in early youth
B play a string instrument such as the violin
C practice a great deal on their instrument
思路透析:题干中包括greater这个明显的比较级,要提醒考生们注意的是,在实际的听力中,比较级的用词可以发生同义转换,但是这种比较关系的表达一定在听力文本中是存在的,所以要特别关注在听力内容中比较的表达方式,答案就在其中。这与填空题是一致的,在填空题中如若发现比较表达方式,那我们可以把它当特殊关键词来对待,耐心等待听力素材中的比较表达后即可得到答案。
实际做题:在实际做题中,当听到Germany study 时确定做题位置。
原文:keyboard players had high levels of mixed handedness, whereas string players like violinists strongly favored one hand. Also those who started younger were more mixed handed.
解题:从原文中我们不难看出,小提琴演奏者的用手习惯比较倾向于某一侧。所以排除B.紧接着出现的整句话里出现了两处比较级,more mixed handed 与greater mixed handedness 形成同义转换,younger 与选项A中的early youth 对应,所以正确答案为A.
例2 剑7 Test 1 Q 12
The company has most camping sites in
A France
B Italy
C Switzerland
思路透析:题干中包含有most sites 这个最高级的表达方式,故做好准备去听比较关系同义转换即可得到答案。
实际做题:当听到300 sites 以及Italy 等信息后可以定位做题位置
原文:In Italy we now have some 64 sites that we either own, or have exclusive use of . France is where we have the majority of sites, and we currently have a project to expand into Switzerland.
解题:不难发现majority 和most 之间存在同义转换,故答案为A.
例3 剑2 Test 3 Q 31
The driest continent is
A Australia
B Africa
C Antarctica
思路透析:题干中有driest 这个最高级,要高度注意比较关系的同义转换。
实际做题:听到Australia 后确定做题位置。
原文:As I have said, Australia is a dry continent, second only to Antarctica in its lack of rainfall.
解题:不难发现答案是C,但值得我们注意的是,second only to 是一种特殊的比较表达方式。
第二类:间接比较
例4 剑3 Test 1 Q 32
According to the speaker, the main cause of back pain in women is
A pregnancy
B osteoporosis
C lack of exercise
思路透析:在审题中发现有main cause 这样的间接比较提示词,那此题很显然要列出几个造成女性背疼的原因,但是要进行对比得出谁是主要原因。
实际做题:听到women 就确定了做题位置。
原文:The majority of our patients at the clinic tend to be women. They are especially vulnerable because of pregnancy but also because of osteoprosis, which I personally believe to be the major cause of problems for women.
解题:在原文中我们不难发现pregnancy 和 osteoprosis 是并列出现的,但是后者紧跟着就是一个非限定性的定语从句,指出后者是major cause,也就是main cause的同义转换,故答案为B.
例5 剑2 Test 4 Q 32
The main research method was
A interviews
B questionnaires
C observation
思路透析:审题时发现有main 这样一个比较关系提示词,做好听到比较关系的准备。
实际做题:可以用research来进行定位。
