雅思阅读难点解析之“剑桥真题系列”

（一）《剑桥雅思真题集V》收录的文章一贯被雅思教学者作为认识雅思考试平均难度的题目，可见其具备充分的典型性，尤其是Test 4.虽然这些文章的时效性并不强，是题库中的比较老的资料，属于自06年以来较少重现的内容，但对考生来讲，作为考前模拟冲刺的训练，却有很大的帮助。

总体来讲，该套题体现的难度不大，对考生不具备太大的挑战。其中即便是在话题看来略微专业，可能会具备难度的Passage 2: Flawed Beauty: the problem with toughened glass 的题型中，最具难度系数的Questions 14-17: List of Statements 中，也并未体现出特别的难度；而三篇文章中都出现的T / F / NG 也没有在信息定位方面显得过难。

下面将就Test 4 中常出现的难点做一解析，希望和各位雅思教学和研究者们探讨。

在Passage 1的Questions 4-9中(Y/ N/ NG):

8.Traditional food-gathering in desert societies was distributed evenly over

the year.显然，判断的主体是food-gathering, 而考点应该是evenly.如果考生按照关键词food-gathering 去原文中定位，可能会先找到本段第二句位于Line 4 的内容：

However, as some inhabitants become involved in tourism, they no longer have time to collect wild food;

看起来定位很快，可是接着读下去就发现不能找到和题目对应的信息，这意味着无法作答。事实上，该题目的信息在文中分布的位置较好地遵循了顺序原则，在Section B 的第二段可以看到首句：

In Arctic and desert societies, year-round survival has traditionally depended on hunting animals and fish and collecting fruit over a relatively short season.我们注意到，food 已经被代换得了无痕迹，变换成许多具体代表food 的内容：animals, fish & fruit.而位于句末的short season 则巧妙地说明‘猎取食物是集中在相对较短的几个月里，以此来维持全年的生计’，这和题目中evenly 的表述是背离的，因而答案是 NO.在雅思阅读文章中，这种巧妙代换并不在少数。笔者对学生进行的雅思模拟练习中，有这样一篇谈论催眠的文章：Hypnosis.在多项选择题中，其中一个得题干为：

Q: After surgery, hypnosis may be used _______________

A.to make drugs unnecessary

B.to keep the patient mobile

C.to make the patient forget to move

D.to minimise patient's discomfort while immobile

大多数同学几乎会很自然地将surgery 定位为关键词，期待来定位。但是来到原文中出现surgery 的地方：Thus deep hypnosis can be induced to allow anaesthesia for surgery, childbirth or dentistry.发现和题干中的after surgery 并没有联系；继续寻找才发现真正定位的内容是Physicians, 这两个看上去完全不等同的词成功地实现了代换，因为文章中讲到，‘患者在接受了外科手术后转入内科医生的治疗’。

在本套题的Passage 2 中，Questions 14-17 是人名配对题目,我们一道来讨论下Questions 14 & 15:

14.Brian Waldron

15.Trevor Ford

List of Statements

A.suggests that publicity about nickel sulphide failure has been suppressed

G.claims that nickel sulphide failure is very unusual

按人名搜索，在Paragraph 2出现了Brian Waldron, 在随后的言论中，But he insists that cases are few and far between.'It's a very rare phenomenon' he says.虽然出现了和unusual 代换的rare, 但是否是nickel sulphide不得而知，这时追根溯源，直至上一段，才看到：...they found that minute crystals of nickel sulphide trapped inside the glass had almost certainly caused the failure.至此方能确定答案为：G.Q15: statement 和原文中的信息代换成为判断正误的焦点，再次体现阅读中Substitution的力量。原文Paragraph 3中出现了人名Trevor Ford:

'What you hear is only the tip of the iceberg,' says Trevor Ford,....He believes the reason is simple: 'No-one wants bad press.' 一语道出没有人愿意被媒体做负面报道，其含义可认为与A 选项相同，为答案。

通过的分析，考生可以清楚地感受到，在应对题目时不仅需要考生有扎实的语言功底，还需要有近义词的储备，适当的联想，以及足够的耐心，‘烤鸭’们应该在备考时对这些有充分的认识，避免盲目崇拜技巧，错失方向。

雅思写作真题解析

雅思大作文在分析题目时，不能只看到其表面意思，与此同时解到题目所涉及的是哪一类话题也是特别重要的一环，题目中是否有一些关键词需要格外注意以及对于这道题目所能想到的一些观点论证都要引起注意。本篇雅思培训，文都国际教育老师将和大家一起探讨两道典型的教育类话题。

As part of education, students should spend a period of time studying and living in a different country to learn its language and culture.To what extent do you agree or disagree?

审题：

题目翻译：作为教育的一部分，学生应该要花一段时间去海外学习和生活来学习当地的语言和文化。你在多大程度上同意或者不同意?

能力考查：这个教育类话题是同意不同意的考试指令，考查考生对于考官所呈现的社会现象或所表达的观点是否能够清晰地给出自己的想法并加以有效论证。一般来讲，碰到这种指令，理论上是可以写完全支持或者反对的，但是还是建议大家尽量尝试用折中的写法，即部分同意部分反对。这种一分为二的思考方式可以在考场上帮助你快速想出观点并进行有效作答，另外这种答题模式也不太会发生偏题的情况。

框架构造：Partly agree

1.开头段(用于引出题目背景，并且表明自己的态度)

2.论证出国学习和生活对于学习语言和文化的重要性

3.但是，反面论证这种做法对于部分学生是不现实的 4.结尾(再次重申自己的观点，并且可以给出自己的建议)

Sample answer:

Going abroad for further study has become more of a trend as large numbers of students participate in international language tests, such as IELTS or TOEFL.Some academics advocate that an experience of learning in foreign countries is a necessary part of education for language betterment and language acquisition.As for me, however, such practice should be considered with discretion.Admittedly, studying and living in another country can be an effective way to achieve the mentioned purposes.Compared with second-hand experience, living in the native environment can provide students with many opportunities to use the language to communicate with local people.Such language ability can make them be more competitive in the future job market.Meanwhile, living experiences can help students to have a deep insight into local life, including history, culture as well as religious belief.However, it would be unrealistic if all students are encouraged to participate in it.First of all, considering students themselves, those who lack learning and adaptive ability may find it hard to integrate into local life and 文都国际教育官方网站：http://www.xiexiebang.com/

sometimes they will feel disappointed or even depressed because of culture shocks and language barriers.Tuition fees and life expenses can beanother problem.Different from rich students, those who come from working-class families or needy families cannot afford such a big cost to study overseas.For example, studying in UK for one year may cost one student nearly 300 thousand, which is far from affordability.To sum up, an experience of studying and living overseas can help students to speak good language and understand the local culture well.However, it is not a practical way for most ordinary families unless they make full preparations.思路分析：

Introduction:

Going abroad for further study has become more of a trend as large numbers of students participate in international language tests, such as IELTS or TOEFL.(用最熟悉的事件引出背景)Some academics advocate that an experience of learning in foreign countries is a necessary part of education for language betterment and language acquisition.(对于题目的改写)As for me, however, such practice should be considered with discretion.(在段落的最后，用一句话表明出自己的观点)

Body 1:

主题句：Admittedly, studying and living in another country can be an effective way to achieve the mentioned purposes.(其中mentioned purposes指的是题目中的掌握语言和文化，为了避免重复，改用其他方式来表达)

支撑论点部分：Compared with second-hand experience,(用了对比论证手法，强调国外生活与学习的好处)living in the native environment can provide students with many opportunities to use the language to communicate with local people.Such language ability can make them be more competitive in the future job market.(凸显对于语言的好处，使用了因果论证来说明语言的重要性)Meanwhile,(论点之间的连接词)living experiences can help students to have a deep insight into local life, including history, culture as well as religious belief.(论证了对于文化的帮助，使用including来举出文化的一些典型表现)。

Body 2:

主题句：However, it would be unrealistic if all students are encouraged to participate in it.(用however转折连接词引出与上段不同的看法，指出了一部分特殊的学生不利于海外学习，这样就体现出了逻辑上的缜密)

支撑论点部分：

① First of all, considering students themselves, those who lack learning and adaptive ability may find it hard to integrate into local life and sometimes they will feel disappointed or even depressed because of culture shocks and language barriers.(个论点，指出语言能力差的学生不适合出国学习，使用的是因果论证)

② Tuition fees and life expenses can be another problem.Different from rich students, those who come from working-class families or needy families cannot afford such a big cost to study overseas.For example, 文都国际教育官方网站：http://www.xiexiebang.com/

文都国际教育官方网站：http://www.xiexiebang.com/

studying in UK for one year may cost one student nearly 300 thousand, which is far from affordability.(第二个分论点，指出家庭经济条件不好的学生也不适合出国学习，用for example引出了典型的举例论证)

Conclusion:

To sum up,(段落结尾常见连接词)an experience of studying and living overseas can help students to speak good language and understand the local culture well.However, it is not a practical way for most ordinary families unless they make full preparations.(个人观点的重述加上适当的建议)

Some people think children should obey the rules their parents and teachers set and listen to them, but others think less control will help children to deal with their own future life.Discuss both views and give your own opinion.审题：

题目翻译：有些人认为小孩子需要遵守和听从父母和老师指定的规则。然而另外一些人则认为对小孩少一点的限制会有利于他们更好的处理和解决未来生活中的问题。讨论两个观点并且给出你个人的看法。

能力考查：这个教育类话题是双边讨论的考试指令，考查学生是否能对于考官所呈现的两个观点进行有效的论证及对比。这个题目中一般都会有标志性词眼，例如some people believe…, while others think…。就这类题目的答题要点来说，我们会建议四段式结构，包括开头引入，两个观点的分别论证及结尾段给出你自己的看法。

题目关键词：rules, parents, teachers

框架构造:

1.开头段(用于引出两个观点所争论的内容)

2.论证个论点的合理性，即小孩子需要遵守和听从父母和老师指定的规则

3.论证第二个观点的合理性，即对小孩少一点的限制会有利于他们更好的处理和解决未来生活中的问题

4.结尾段(给出个人观点)

第三篇：剑桥雅思10听力真题解析 [干货推荐 新东方独家]

剑桥雅思10听力真题解析 ［干货推荐 新东方独家］

一、题型分析

沿袭剑1-9的一贯风格，剑10听力此次收录分别来自各个年份场次的共16个section组合而成的4套完整学术类考题。

总体来看，如Chart 1和Chart 2所示，除去Test 1填空题比例远超于选择题，整体来说填空题和选择题比例相当，这和2015年开考至今的真实考试题型比例是基本吻合的。这就意味着同学们在备考时，不要有题型上的偏颇，填空题和选择题的练习要同等重视。另外，值得一提的是，剑10未收录地图题这一题型。但从2015年亚太区目前实际考试情况来看，基本保持每个月考一至两次地图的概率，所以同学们还是要重视地图题的练习，特别是选择式的地图题。

Chart 1 剑10听力题型比例图1

Chart 2 剑10听力题型比例图2

进一步就具体题型而论，提纲填空题一如既往的以主流题型的姿态占据Section 4，这和当下考试基本吻合，且主要以填写单个单词为主。同时，填空题的另外一大题型-信息题（姓名，地址，日期，数字等）也不出意外的仍然是Section1主要题型。

另外此次剑10中表格题和句子填空的比例比之前的剑7-9有所上升。单选和配对题集中大量出现在剑10的Section 2和Section 3中，值得指出的是多选题也在这两个部分频繁亮相，且在Test 2和Test 4中以连续两道多选（5选2）的形式出现。4月11号Section 2和4月30号Section 3都考了连续多选，同学们要不能放松多选的练习。

Chart 3 剑10听力题型比例图3

Chart 4剑10听力题型比例图4

二、场景分析

场景上，剑10没有重大调整，和雅思听力开考至今的总体场景设置相符，前两个section为生活场景，后两个section为学术场景。此次剑10收录的生活场景集中为旅游，交通，项目介绍和课程咨询；学术场景集中为作业讨论，课程讨论和专题讲座，具体主题如下表格所示。

需要注意的是，对于背景知识的要求变得更高，有交叉复杂的多场景出现，比如Test 1 Section 3在学业场景中还融汇了环保场景。这也要求考生有更丰富的背景知识和有更广阔的知识面以及更大的词库。剑10场景的选材透露出雅思听力考试更加注重学生的综合能力的考察，对于学生的知识面有了更高层次的要求。

建议同学们以2010-2013年雅思听力机经为范本，整理积累相关场景背景知识。多听听或看看TED演讲、National Geography、Discovery这类的节目，注重多场景融汇的听力内容的练习，如生物知识和环保知识的融合、休闲活动和咨询知识的交叉等。

三、备考建议

1、Section1的10道填空题，对于无论是想考高分8分以上的同学或者是6分单科保底线的同学来说，是一定不能有失误的。这10道题至多会有4题是涉及个人信息的采集，即name, address, date, number。这些属于考察基本功的题目，简单但易掉以轻心丢分，比如走上来第一题就是记录一个长串的电话号码。可能还进入状态或者考场紧张种种原因，就错失这一题了，然后特别影响自己的做题情绪以做题节奏，导致恶性的连环失误。避免这种情况的发生，我们建议同学们在备考阶段一定要集中不间断的听数字日期，保持耳朵的敏感度。

2、Section4 因为内容上涉及动植物，科学研究，未来科技等学术场景，且答案单词不如Section1那么容易定位及辨识。请同学们务必累计好Section 4场景词汇，有一定量的输入才能有质的输出。先去背过这些单词才会更容易去听到它。“高能高分”理论指导下不愿意看到同学们准备听力词汇时默默的就把它当做背单词来操作了，导致虽然背会很多单词，默写及中文意思都没有问题，但是就是听不到。这一点就是忽略了我们的“音”。

听力单词的累积一定是要先掌握正确发音，再根据发音大部分符合发音规则的指导下拼写正确。不然很多同学都是看到答案单词认识，但始终无法第一时间听到这个单词。对于Section4填空的难度除了单词量的考察，还有一点就是答案在不经意间就报出了但没有意识到这就是答案单词。这种情况需要同学们在读题预测答案这一步下功夫。对于这一块的准备，请同学们查看新东方雅思听力机经，以翻译+答案单词整理为主，同时进行听写练习。

3、Section 2和Section 3的选择题的核心是同义替换。正确答案通常是通过同义替换说出来的。同义替换也分为三个不同的层次。最简单的同义替换就是词性上的变化，可能听到的是名词satisfaction，正确选项写的是形容词satisfied；再往上升级的同义替换是同义词，比如听到strategy但是选项写成tactics；最高难度的同义替换为paraphrase改写，用完全不一样的单词和句法来表达同样的意思。掌握住这个核心，以及听的当下跟上说话者的思路，另外再注意选择题的note-taking能力，那么相信同学们不会再惧怕选择题。

第五篇：12月6日雅思写作真题及解析

12月6日雅思写作真题范文及解析：frequency repetition

今天看了下12月6日的雅思作文考题，BBS里面好像开了锅一样，“变态”二字充斥着整个论坛，本人仿佛看见了许多考生的怨恨，无辜，愤怒和无奈。其实我觉得无辜的应该是出这个题的人，先别着急拍砖，听我给你讲讲再拍也不迟。

还有，对于那些怀疑今天写偏题的同学，我提供一篇范文给你看看，这篇范文是随便在网上找的，顶多6.5分，你看看你的作文和它的近似程度吧。

分析如下：

题目其实就是有关“死记硬背”学习形式的讨论，只是许多同学被“by frequency repetition”给忽悠了，但如果你稍微注意一下紧跟其后括号里的解释（rote learning),这个rote就是我们常说的“死记硬背”啊，在口语考试中，考官常说的：Don't rote everything, otherwise your score will be penalized（不要去死记硬背你的口语答案，否则你的分数会被处罚的）。很多同学翻译成“重复记忆”可以理解，但问题是此题配有解释啊！不认识rote这个单词是根源，证明你的词汇量太低，而且对教育类的单词不熟悉。如craming ：填鸭式教学。写作思路：客观评价这种典型的学习方式，有用，但太机械化。还是应该积极性思考和学习，及我们常说的think creatively and critically.这句话是不是很眼熟啊。

安慰的话：说实话，大家不用太绝望，重复记忆不就是死记硬背吗，重复＝死记，因为没有主动性的思考，所以这篇文章这样写的话，你不会偏的far away。再说，考官一看中国学生对rote的理解就都是这样的话，法不责众嘛。放心，不会有问题的！我自己想了下，如果按repetition这样写出来的话，跟rote差不多。主要看你的第二个观点，及how to learn effectively and efficiently.范文展示：

题目：来源:恒星英语网

Memorization of information by frequency repetition(rote learning)plays a role in education system to what extend do you agree or disagree.范文：

Learning is a complex process that involves different strategies and stages.As a key approach of learning, memorization of information by repetition contributesto the overall effectiveness of an education system.But we should also admit that rote learning has a number of limitations.Learning by repetition is an effective strategy in learning.For example, Chinese people believe that one will get the gist of a book after reading it for a hundred times.Researchers have found that rote learning is particularlyuseful for young learners.When teaching children how to use a computer, instructors show them over and over again until they can perform tasks correctly.Moreover, for certain kinds of learning at early stage, the understanding involved is often minimal.Naturally rote learning assumes an important role.However, we need to bear in mind that meaningful learning is more essential for our education system.When students grow older and enter higher grades, the scope and depth of their learning grow.Surely rote learning can help students learn knowledge by heart but it could do little to improve their analyzingability and creativity.There has been strong criticism that some schools overemphasize the importance of memorization of knowledge and produce students with great weaknesses in applying knowledge in practice.Solution for such problem could be that schools and students put in more effort into meaningful learning.To conclude, learning is a complex progress and students employ different strategiesat various stages.Rote learning is important in education system, but meaningful learning is more critical for students in obtaining advanced ability and skills.From:
