今天的雅思阅读考试难度向剑17看齐了,众多考生都反馈太!难!啦!好多考生在第 一篇的填空题第 一题就卡壳了,甚至第 一篇就花费了半个小时,导致passage3只剩5分钟,再加上passage3的难度更是legend,有不少考生已经默默将希望寄托在下一场了。
Passage 1
Passage 1 The Book Review:Triumph of city书评:城市的胜利
首 次出现:2016.10.29
类别:书评
难度:★
题型配比:Summmary8+判断5
参考答案:
1. diease 2.poolitical 3.richer 4. economy 5. museum 6. property 7. personal contact 8. consumption
9. FALSE 10.TRUE 11.NOT GIVEN 12.TRUE 13.FALSE
分析:
雅思文章一共9段,作者Glaeser支持城市发展,但是在城市发展中会出现很多的问题,比如游客太多,城市郊外太多高层建筑,以及分析了美国逆城市化的原因。
今天P1的summary填空可是坑了好多考生,第 一题的定位有难度导致影响了整个做题的节奏。
碰到这种情况考生一定要淡定,可以先做后面的题,等后面有时间再回头来处理,不要因为一棵树木放弃整个森林。
Passage 2
cast away一本关于遇险小岛生存的书
首 次出现:2015.11.21
类别:文学类
难度:★★
题型配比:段匹5+填空4+多选2组(五选二)
分析:今天的passage2是关于一个叫Taylor的作者写的一本关于某荒岛生存情况的书。这篇文章第 一次出现在2015年11月21日的考试中,段匹再加上两组多选题,对很多考生来说就是做题时间无限增加。
题型组合与C16TestT3Passage2 Climate change reveals artefacts in Norway’s glaciers非常接近。多选题对于很多考生来说不知从何下手,选项定位较困难。
Passage 3
儿童心理学家皮亚杰(Piaget)(旧题)
首 次出现:2021.08.14
类别:教育
难度:★★★
分析:今天的passage3重现了3月12日的考题,一点也没有修改,发现雅思阅读在同一年中反复考察的篇章逐渐多起来了。他是近代最有名的儿童心理学家,发生认知论的开创者,所以一旦出现教育相关文章,总少不了他和他的理论,比如九分达人6的Quantitative research in education。
儿童教育也是教育类话题比较关注的一个方向,具体可以参考剑14Test3 Passage3 The Power of Play
参考答案:
27-30句首配句尾
27. B 28. C 29. F 30. A
31-34 流程填空
31. starch 32. fermentation 33.condensation 34. ploymer
35-36单选
35. B 36. C

Part2
场景:英国驾照
题型:单选+配对
《雅思听力考前速递》第140页,第167篇原题。

P2点评:
本篇题型为单选加配对,常见第二部分考题题型配置。背景为英国驾照介绍。注意通过机经积累相关用词:多车道(multiple lanes)、红绿灯(traffic lights)、环城公路(ring road)等。选择类题型选项会具象化替换,注意通过剑桥积累。
Part3
场景:单性别学校
题型:单选+填空
《雅思听力考前速递》第134页,第91篇原题。
21. Study finds that:
B. boys obtain more benefits from single-sex schools
22. Traditional subjects selected more : A. girls in single-sex schools
23. Australian study: B. mixed-sex school benefit majority of students
24. Why study the single-sex schools instead of missed ones in Harvard reports:B
25. The problem suggested by Harvard studies: B. boys have less academic talents than girls
填空:
26.Levels of teacher’s voice should be different from different gender
27.Girls are better to work a group
28.boys like to read things which are true
29.Girls pay more attention on the behavior of the characters
30.Girls are more critical of the achievements than boys.
P3点评:
本次考试P3出现5题填空题,比一般选择类P3好做很多。因此本次考试总体难度偏低。单性别学校(single-sex)和混合制(mixed(英式)/co-ed/coeducation(美式))是我们国内同学不太熟悉的话题。
看选项时注意积累用词搭配,思考具象化。比如25题B选项,男孩学术能力比女孩弱,联想到剑桥11第1套题第三部分有类似的背景,选项可被具象化替换为:男孩一般考B或C,而女生成绩普遍A;或者女生作业完成度和质量总体比男生高。注意结合背景理解具象化的含义。
Part4
场景:棉花种植
题型:笔记
《雅思听力考前速递》第98页,第26篇原题。
No.26: 2015.12.12 V11114 Cotton planting and process介绍讲解棉花种植的负面影响

Labour-consuming
P4点评:
本次话题棉花种植可用于环保类话题论述。棉花种植对环境污染非常大,其原因在于1. 费水。灌溉需要大量用水。2. 农药。农药对于农民、以及环境都有极大毒害。3.印染工业。虽然很反常识(counter-intuitive),但棉花的确不环保。本篇P4注意积累农业类常考用词:灌溉irrigate,以及其他本篇未考相关用词:施肥fertilize、肥料fertilizer、作物crop、土壤soil、农产品produce等。
写作
Task 1
今天Task 1 是一副静态柱状组合图图,主题是“男性和女性学生参与 full time and part time education在2016的情况。”
对于静态图的解题思路,目标分数段不同的同学的整体分段思路也是非常不一样的,对于目标分6分的同学,对于数据的分组分段可以按照数据的类别分组,比如full-time and part-time education 分成两组来写。
但是对于追求高分的同学,在数据的分组分段的时候一定要考虑到数据的特征。
例如下面这幅图,6分的同学可以直接按照数据类别来分段,即主体段按照food, drinks and tobacco; clothing and footwear ; leisure and education; 分成三段来写,然后在每一段中间按照一定的逻辑顺序去写三组的数据各自的情况。
但是对于目标分在7分的同学,分段的方式,应该是将Ireland 和Turkey 分为一组,Italy, Spain 以及 Sweden分在一组,是因为它们组内的数据更加相似。
Task 2
Nowadays, it is difficult for people living in cities to get enough physical exercise. What are the reasons? How can this problem be solved?
对于住在城市的人,现在很难能够得到足够的体育锻炼。 为什么?以及如何可以去解决这个问题?
报告类的题目相对于之前讲到的内容,难度其实要低了很多。
对于这类题目,大家一定要注意的这类现象往往都是描述现在社会上的现象,所以大家要从现在的因素出发。而且这道题中的difficult 这一点,所以大家不可以从科技的角度出发,科技的发展只能说提供了更多的选择,而不是让人们做体育活动变得更加的困难。
这道题推荐的观点如下:
1. 由于城市化, 导致城市中大部分面积用来建造住房,可以用来体育活动的场所越来越有限。(参考最近对于飞盘占领足球场的新闻)
2. 由于全球化,导致大城市的生活节奏一定程度上变快,竞争变大,加班也更严重,所以人们可以用来体育锻炼的时间相比于之前减少了很多。
3. 由于新冠疫情防疫政策中( strict coronavirus lock down) 的出现,城市中的公众不被允许聚集参与体育活动。
对于解决方案的话,更多学生还是去解决上述的原因,即增加用来体育活动的场所,比如说修建体育馆,公园等场所,给民众开放。

难题解析以及串题小tips:
为了节省备考时间和精力,part2我们可以进行一些有效串题,即不同的话题从同一个主题去想思路。需要注意的是串题时需要根据题目中侧重点进行调整,切忌生搬硬套或者频繁出现另外题目中的关键词,导致串题痕迹过于明显。目前话题季可串题的思路很多,可串的题目也很多,这里给大家举个例子,例如下面这一组新话题。
Describe a gift you would like to buy for your friend
Describe something you received for free
Describe a traditional product in your country
想给朋友买的礼物是巧克力口味(chocolate-flavored)的月饼;收到的免费东西是从朋友那得到的巧克力口味的月饼;传统的产品是月饼,现在除了传统口味的月饼,还多了一些像巧克力味的新口味。
