在雅思听力中,从句的应用会在理解上极大地加大考生理解的难度,考验考生的功力。而且有些有从句的材料会让关键词后置,这样做的后果就是使材料的难度更上一个新台阶。那我们该如何突破这种情况呢?下面新东方网雅思频道为大家整理相关的信息,供大家借鉴。
从句在雅思听力考题中出现的形式为“……。 conj. ________”, 即在填空前出现从句连接词(如when, where, because, as, if, etc.)。
在雅思听力录音中则通过调换连接词前后分句的次序,将填空前的关键词后置。
例 1:Cambridge 5 Test 1 Section 4 Question 36 & 37
--Research indicates that many women only think about their financial future when a ________ occurs.
--It is best for women to start thinking about pensions when they are in their _______.
录音:The research indicates that at present for women it takes a crisis to make them think about their future financial situation. But of course this is the very worst time for anyone to make any important decisions. Women today need to look ahead, think ahead, not wait until they’re under pressure. Even women in their early twenties, need to think about pensions for example.
解析:通过调换从句中两个分句的位置,完成雅思听力从句关键词后置。
例 2:Cambridge 6 Test 4 Section 4 Question 40
--In ancient India a man would fight a lion as a test of _____________.
录音:In ancient India, one of the greatest tests of leadership for a man was to fight a lion.
解析:通过调换从句中两个分句的位置,完成雅思听力从句关键词后置。
在突破雅思听力从句的关键词后置的问题的时候,考生须要在读题时事先判断易出现关键词后置的题目,并且对答案进行预测;而后在听题时利用预测捕捉答案,后置的关键词起确认答案的作用。
