答案&解析

PART 1

 

生活类旅游场景,题型为常见的人物信息填写,整体难度适中

  1. Jamieson

即听即得,非常见人名会给予拼读,注意利用先总后分的规律;

  1. afternoon

可以看作是一个即听即得,但要注意把男女对话听完整,避免断章取义;

  1. communication

乱序细节考核,答案词后置。前面说的先做reception,列举的办公技巧商务技巧不重要,但是communication really matters;

  1. week

女的说想干一个月,而男的说应该可以,一般是先1周左右再商量(but you are more likely to be offered something for a week at first.)较简单的干扰信息;

  1. 10

整体难度不大,但要注意之后8和9都是干扰信息;

  1. suit

根据小标题Registration process可以定位到原文中I can probably borrow a suit;

  1. passport

这一题可以看作是即听即得,对于新手的压力也不会很大;

  1. personality

较典型的同义替换。关键词applicants同义替换为candidates。同时,原文中There will be questions about personality与题干信息一致,后面的plans for the future是迷惑信息;

  1. feedback

即听即得,但对应原句较长,所以语法较为吃紧的考生可能会有些压力。对应原文for example, the interview will be useful because they will give you feedback on your performance, so you can improve next time.

  1. time

即听即得。文中末尾是由女的提出的,所以比较省时间。对应原文And I expect finding a temporary job this way takes a lot less time.

难度总评:★★★☆☆

 

PART 2

 

 

生活类旅游场景,题型为单选和表格题,整体难度不大,易于新手上手

  1. A

语法上的同义替换。原文中so we don’t aim to compete with other companies on the number of customers.可排除C选项,What we do is to build our many years of experience, more than almost any other holiday companies to ensure we provide perfect holidays. 是选项A的同义替换; 

  1. B

难度不大,因为三个地名发音上差别较大,这可以作为本题的一个突破口。speaker首先提到了B选项,our holiday starts in Heysham, 听到的时候可以在旁边标记一下,where your tour manager will meet you. Then, you will travel by ferry to the Isle of Man.可知B满足题干要求,为正确选项;

  1. A

虽然难度不大,但存在干扰信息,做题时候要仔细。先说是5顿早餐晚餐,然后3顿午餐;

  1. C

两处高频同义替换词。一处是alternative替换为another,还有一处是fee和pay extra替换;

  1. river

短语的同义替换。从dining room looks out是river;

  1. 1422

即听即得,但这一题对预判的要求比较高,不仔细审题的同学很可能会错填成别的非数词的答案;

  1. top

乱序细节考点中“A of B”形式发生的答案词倒置。但这一题没什么难度,地名定位然后说mountain railway to the top

  1. pass

同义替换,provide同义替换give。这个注意先听第四天,然后说会using the pass which will give you,用这个pass去景点

  1. steam

即听即得,比较容易。对应原文on a steam railway from Douglas to Port Erin;

  1. capital

former同义替换为used to be。这个会听到which used to be capital of the isle of man在后面

难度总评:★★☆☆☆

 

PART 3 

学术话题研究,题型为匹配+单选+多选,难度是整个Test中最高的

Tip:对话中的人有口音,会造成一定听辨音上的困难

  1. G

caring和nurture同义替换,女的说大孩子看小孩子

  1. F

easier to get on with siblings, helpful, eager to please——只有选项cooperative符合;易错选项为A, outgoing

  1. A

Sociable, confident同义替换outgoing。同时,男的说的容易迷惑,因为他说自己shy,但是研究说不是

  1. E

依然是同义替换。男的说shy,所以选introverted

  1. B

语法替换。男的提到的意思大致是周围都关注独生子,所以比较自私。对应原文:loners, world revolves around them, don‘t have to fight for their parents’ attention.由后面排除attention-seeking。

  1. C

同义词替换。女的提到grow up more quickly, are expected to do basic things for themselves like getting dressed——independent

  1. C

干扰信息考核,有一定难度。Performances in intelligence tests decline slightly from the eldest child to his or her younger siblings. This has been proved in lots of recent studies——排除具有little doubt.....并没有谈到一堆的evidence信息不一致conflicting evidence,所以A错误选项;what many of them didn’t take into consideration was family size.正确答案,替换neglect

  1. A

此题是该部分中的一个难点。The more siblings there are, the likely the family is to have a low socioeconomic status, which can also account for differences between siblings in academic performances.很多人可能选择该选项,然而选项是社会经济因素和出生顺序之间的比较。原文中是用surprising该词定位和理解,注意说话人是女生。对照原文,It’s not only that they benefit intellectually from extra attention at a young age, which was what I would have expected. It’s that they benefit from being teachers for their younger siblings by verbalizing processes. 由此排除C选项的little difference,little否定含义,因此选择A。

29-30. BD

收尾的这个多选题难度适中。女的提到了strong和defend herself,然后又说互相put up with each other,分别对应的是题干中的stand up for oneself和tolerant

难度总评:★★★★☆

 

PART 4

 

生物类话题,题型为综合摘要型填空,难度在四部分中适中

  1. shelter

provide同义替换give,较简单;

  1. oil

乱序细节,前后名词调换顺序。It’s useful to us humans too because we can kill germs with a disinfectant made from oil extracted from Eucalyptus’ leaves;

  1. roads

同义替换。定位是原文中的construction of roads;

  1. insects

同义替换中的反向替换,本题在逻辑上需要思考一下,对应原文中提到了昆虫eat;

  1. grass

very frequent同义替换为high frequency,encourage替换为result in。同时,本题也属于一个乱序细节的考核,前后名词调换顺序

  1. water

前面有从句定位,后面是consume water need by Eucalyptus trees,其中need by同义替换为available to,同时答案词前置

  1. soil

没什么难度,composition of soil

  1. dry

即听即得。且前面有提示词wet

  1. simple

代词同义替换考察one替换为ecosystem

  1. nests

乱序细节考核,答案词后置。对应原文说到Find it ideal is the bell-miner bird which builds its nests in the undergrowth there. But again, that’s not helpful for the Eucalyptus tree.

难度总评:★★★☆☆

 

总结

虽然整体难度适中,但可以看出自2020年最新听力考试做出调整后,会有一定的变化趋势:

  1. 同义替换考点比重会逐步增加,且对语法方面的要求会较先前有所提高;
  2. 由于1部分的example录音被移除,审题和读题时间均被缩短30秒左右,故而目前1部分在应答中一定要做好预判,提防随时可能出现的涉及干扰信息或乱序细节两个考点的题。一旦错过,会对整体作答的顺畅度和考试心态都产生影响;
  3. 从剑14开始,3部分的难度就已有所提高,所以备考的同学对匹配和学术类单选题的平时练习一定要增强。
