二、介词短语:

真题演练:

1、剑桥 2 test 4 Q10

Workman to call between ……….and………….. 答案:1pm 5pm

2、剑桥 2 test 2 Q15

Students need a front door key between ………and……….. 答案:8pm 7am

注意:between……and……….在听力录音中会被换掉,简单地替换一般是from ..to…,但考官会采取较难的替换方式。比如上述第一题的录音内容是:

AGENT: Well, you tell us your preferred times?

PAUL: The best time is about 1.00.

AGENT: I have to check that with him. And if he can’t make it then, what would be your second preference?

PAUL: Any time up to 5pm would be fine.

第二题的录音内容是:

To the front door which you have just come through here from the street. This door is closed and locked at 8pm every night and opened again at will need your key if you are coming back to the college between those times.

我们从录音的内容中可以看出,听力考官对录音做了很大的改动。但是站在做题的角度上,考生只需要知道这个题要填写的是时间,并且填写时间的顺序要和原文一致,不可颠倒就可以了。一句话,考官考察什么,考生听什么。

3.剑桥5 test 5 Q24

Listening to British students’ language because of: normal speed large amount of …………

答案:slang

注意:本题目需要考生了解amount of 后面要填写不可数名词,以免因为单复数丢分。并要掌握此类的计量短语结构,比如:lots of ,a number of 等等,并理清楚单复数。

4、剑桥6 test 1 Q32

5、剑桥5 test 3 Q34

从上述的分类和实例中,我们可以看到介词在雅思听力中的重要性。强烈建议考生在审题过程中应对介词加以重视,这样就会更进一步地看出试题的考点,提前有所准备。因此,自己在做题的过程中,才能更加准确地找到答案的准确位置,不会因为速度快没有反应过来,也不会受到录音中信息的干扰从而漏题,做错题最终导致失分。
