雅思聽力中不可忽視的否定詞
7-4-1
Family preferences: 6. no ___________
7. no objection to ____________
原文:
OFFICER: okay… do you have any preference for a family with children or without children?
STUDENT: I prefer… I mean I like young children, but I’d like to be with older people… you know…adults…someone around my age.
OFFICER: okay, and what about pets?
STUDENT: I am a veterinarian so that’s fine… the more the better.
解析:第6題的答案應該是“(young) children”, 但是很多同學都會寫成“older people”或者“adults” 。因為他們在聽錄音時,聽到了轉折信號詞“but”, 然后又聽到了表示肯定的“I’d like to”, 于是很自然的覺得這之后就是正確答案 。而實際上,題目中的“no”表明,這里需要填的是說話者不想要的東西,所以答案并不是but后面表示肯定的部分 。
第7題的答案應該是“pets” 。這題的關鍵依然是題目中的否定詞“no”, 但是不少同學不認識“objection”, 實際上這是一個雙重否定 。objection表示反對,no objection表示的是“不反對” 。這里同樣要注意的是“veterinarian”這個詞,很多同學把這個詞和“vegetarian”搞混了 。veterinarian是獸醫的意思,vegetarian是素食主義者的意思 。說話人自稱是個獸醫,才會說對于pets, the more the better 。
除了“no”之外,同樣常見的否定詞便是“not”了 。
4-2-4
32. Corporate crime does NOT include
A. employees stealing from their company.
B. unintentional crime by employees.
C. fraud resulting from company policy.
原文:so crime like theft by employees—things like embezzlement or fraud against one’s actual employer are excluded according to this definition.
解析:題干中的NOT表示我們需要找出不屬于corporate crime的選項,原文中的excluded表示“不包含在內”的意思,所以答案選C 。
不過,我們審題時需要注意的否定詞顯然并不只有no和not, 有的時候,它們隱藏得更深 。比如下面這幾道真題:
5-2-1
3. Cost to join per year (without current student card): £ _______
4-3-4
39. Which argument was used AGAINST having a drama theatre?
A. It would be expensive and no students would use it.
B. It would be a poor use of resources because only a minority would use it.
C. It could not accommodate large productions of plays.
6-4-4
34. Very few African lions have
【考雅思用的筆 3大雅思聽力筆記技巧分享】A. a long mane.
B. a coat with varied colours.
C. a fold of skin on their stomach.
6-1-4
33. Lack of ___________ in the East End encouraged the growth of business.
以上真題中的否定詞分別是:without, against, few以及lack, 表示的都是否定 。我們需要注意的是,否定詞往往在原文中都會同義轉換 。比如6-4-4Q34中的very few在原文中轉換成了not many; 6-14Q33中的lack在原文中就轉換成了fewer 。
