雅思聽(tīng)力:并列詞的兩種考查方式
并列詞
并列詞的考查方式分兩種,
Not A but B,
Although A, B
Despite A, B
Eg. Despite the efforts of the government
此部分關(guān)聯(lián)詞組所引導(dǎo)的信息前部A為否定后部B為肯定故真相應(yīng)在后部B中體現(xiàn),所以此類并列詞被稱為前否后肯。另有一類:
Prefer A to B.
A is better than B
A rather than B
A other than B
Eg 1). I listened to the radio, the talk show programs. I think its very useful. Its better than just watching TV.
Eg 2). For our research methods, we depended mainly on talking with individuals, asking them questions rather than using written questionnaires.
此類句子中前者A是首選,被作者認(rèn)為是好于/強(qiáng)于后者,故真相應(yīng)是前者信息。我們稱之為前肯后否。
從聽(tīng)題難度上講,以上兩種中那個(gè)更容易聽(tīng)對(duì)信息而得分?是第一種。因?yàn)榈诙N信息的真相位于前部,人腦處理信息過(guò)程中對(duì)最后進(jìn)入耳朵的后部信息會(huì)產(chǎn)生信息停留的現(xiàn)象,即對(duì)B會(huì)更有強(qiáng)烈的烙印,從而誤認(rèn)為B是真相而誤聽(tīng)。有鑒于此,烤鴨備考中更應(yīng)提防前肯后否這種隱形殺手!
