各位屠鸭勇士们,2020年的第一场线下雅思考试已经顺利结束了。不少烤鸭开始担心:半年没考了,都考了什么题?难度怎么样?令人惊喜的是,官方的第一场线下考试并没有太难为我们,无论是听力还是阅读,出的题目都是中规中矩的,甚至整体都偏简单。下面,跟随老师,来具体地分析一下这场考试吧。听力部分
【整体分析】:本次听力考试的四篇题目都是之前考过的旧题,且题型及场景都算是常规。 在section1的填空题中,答案填写数字的占2题,月份占1题,拼写占1题。剩余题目所填答案词也较为简单,但是学生想做到全对,也不容易,比如第7题的答案为apron(围裙),很多考生反映没有背到过这个单词,考试听到这个词时有些慌乱。有一部分同学,虽然不认识但是通过平时的拼写训练,反而在考场上的将这个单词拼对了。section4的填空题中反而没有出现生僻的答案词,大部分题目的答案简单明了,但是答案中的desert,shipping, concentrated三个单词的拼写,还是看考生在平时背诵单词的时候是否注意细节,否则会让你容易会陷入个别字母是否需要双写的纠结。 section 2&3 选择和匹配的搭配向来是重点考察考生们对于细节同义替换的掌握程度。相对而言section2的原文及替换程度也是适中的。但是section3中,原文的用词难度增大了不少,如果学生对于主题不熟的话,可能在配对题的时候,更加觉得有难度。 【后续备考建议】:1. 加强高频考点词汇的拼写及拼写法的训练2. 熟悉同义替换的考点和常考词对3. 提高审题的速度和准确度附:本场考试难度最大section3的原题及部分答案解析 Dickens’ NovelA. an obedient daughterB. deliberately cruel to other peopleC. act in a childish innocenceD. resent things happened previouslyE. pay attention to appearanceF. act in a foolish wayG. insight into human nature21.Rosy D ( 原文hate=选项resent)22.Flory F (原文silly=选项foolish)23.Lizzie G (原文her kindness=选项 human nature)24.EstelleA (原文make others suffer a lot=选项cruel to other people) 25-26.

【整体分析】: 本次考试题型出的相对简单,是比较好做的填空和判断居多。大多数考生比较惧怕的小标题配对(matching headings)和段落信息配对题(matching information)都没有考到。Passage1是完全按照顺序给出的,且是按照区间出题,两个大题分别对应了文章的前半部分和后半部分。整篇文章定位简单清晰,原文的单词也不难,只要细节对应到位,就能很好的完成。Passage2是之前考过的文章,如果同学如果按照老师的要求进行刷题的话,应该能做到原文原题。这篇文章的题型和难度也不大,后面会放上原文和解析,备考的同学可以自测一下。第三篇文章,题型不难,可能文章的词汇和语法的使用比前面略难,部分同学在阅读起来有一定的障碍。【后续备考建议】1. 保证填空和判断题的正确率,尤其是第1篇文章,尽量多得分。2. 匹配题虽然本次考试出的较少,但仍然是雅思考试的主流的题目。四大类匹配题(sentence, feature, heading ,information)还是要当成平时训练的重点,把握好这几种题型的替换的规律。3. 平时训练一定要限时,以高分为目标的同学,首先要做完题。 附:本场考试passage2的原题及答案解析Stress of workplaceA How busy is too busy? For some it means having to miss the occasional long lunch; for others it means missing lunch altogether. For a few, it is not being able to take a “sickie” once a month. Then there is a group of people for whom working every evening and weekend is normal, and frantic is the tempo of their lives. For most senior executives, workloads swing between extremely busy and frenzied. The vice-president of the management consultancy AT Kearney and its head of telecommunications for the Asia-Pacific region, Neil Plumridge, says his work weeks vary from a “manageable” 45 hours to 80 hours, but average 60 hours. B Three warning signs alert Plumridge about his workload: sleep, scheduling and family. He knows he has too much on when he gets less than six hours of sleep for three consecutive nights; when he is constantly having to reschedule appointments; “and the third one is on the family side”, says Plumridge, the father of a three-year-old daughter, and expecting a second child in October. “If I happen to miss a birthday or anniversary, I know things are out of control.” Being “too busy” is highly subjective. But for any individual, the perception of being too busy over a prolonged period can start showing up as stress: disturbed sleep, and declining mental and physical health. National workers’ compensation figures show stress causes the most lost time of any workplace injury. Employees suffering stress are off work an average of 16.6 weeks. The effects of stress are also expensive. Comcare, the Federal Government insurer, reports that in 2003-04, claims for psychological injury accounted for 7% of claims but almost 27% of claim costs. Experts say the key to dealing with stress is not to focus on relief – a game of golf or a massage – but to reassess workloads. Neil Plumridge says he makes it a priority to work out what has to change; that might mean allocating extra resources to a job, allowing more time or changing expectations. The decision may take several days. He also relies on the advice of colleagues, saying his peers coach each other with business problems. “Just a fresh pair of eyes over an issue can help,” he says. C Executive stress is not confined to big organisations. Vanessa Stoykov has been running her own advertising and public relations business for seven years, specialising in work for financial and professional services firms. Evolution Media has grown so fast that it debuted on the BRW Fast 100 list of fastest-growing small enterprises last year – just after Stoykov had her first child. Stoykov thrives on the mental stimulation of running her own business. “Like everyone, I have the occasional day when I think my head’s going to blow off,” she says. Because of the growth phase the business is in, Stoykov has to concentrate on short-term stress relief – weekends in the mountains, the occasional “mental health” day – rather than delegating more work. She says: “We’re hiring more people, but you need to train them, teach them about the culture and the clients, so it’s actually more work rather than less.” D Identify the causes: Jan Elsnera, Melbourne psychologist who specialises in executive coaching, says thriving on a demanding workload is typical of senior executives and other high-potential business people. She says there is no one-size-fits-all approach to stress: some people work best with high-adrenalin periods followed by quieter patches, while others thrive under sustained pressure. “We could take urine and blood hormonal measures and pass a judgment of whether someone’s physiologically stressed or not,” she says. “But that’s not going to give us an indicator of what their experience of stress is, and what the emotional and cognitive impacts of stress are going to be.” E Eisner’s practice is informed by a movement known as positive psychology, a school of thought that argues “positive” experiences – feeling engaged, challenged, and that one is making a contribution to something meaningful – do not balance out negative ones such as stress; instead, they help people increase their resilience over time. Good stress, or positive experiences of being challenged and rewarded, is thus cumulative in the same way as bad stress. Elsner says many of the senior business people she coaches are relying more on regulating bad stress through methods such as meditation and yoga. She points to research showing that meditation can alter the biochemistry of the brain and actually help people “retrain” the way their brains and bodies react to stress. “Meditation and yoga enable you to shift the way that your brain reacts, so if you get proficient at it you’re in control.” F The Australian vice-president of AT Kearney, Neil Plumridge, says: “Often stress is caused by our setting unrealistic expectations of ourselves. I’ll promise a client I’ll do something tomorrow, and then promise another client the same thing, when I really know it’s not going to happen. I’ve put stress on myself when I could have said to the clients: ‘Why don’t I give that to you in 48 hours?’ The client doesn’t care.” Over-committing is something people experience as an individual problem. We explain it as the result of procrastination or Parkinson’s law: that work expands to fill the time available. New research indicates that people may be hard-wired to do it. G A study in the February issue of the Journal of Experimental Psychology shows that people always believe they will be less busy in the future than now. This is a misapprehension, according to the authors of the report, Professor Gal Zauberman, of the University of North Carolina, and Professor John Lynch, of Duke University. “On average, an individual will be just as busy two weeks or a month from now as he or she is today. But that is not how it appears to be in everyday life,” they wrote. “People often make commitments long in advance that they would never make if the same commitments required immediate action. That is, they discount future time investments relatively steeply.” Why do we perceive a greater “surplus” of time in the future than in the present? The researchers suggest that people underestimate completion times for tasks stretching into the future, and that they are bad at imagining future competition for their time.
