雅思聽力: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
此部分關聯詞組所引導的信息前部A為否定后部B為肯定故真相應在后部B中體現,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,被作者認為是好于/強于后者,故真相應是前者信息。我們稱之為前肯后否。
從聽題難度上講,以上兩種中那個更容易聽對信息而得分?是第一種。因為第二種信息的真相位于前部,人腦處理信息過程中對最后進入耳朵的后部信息會產生信息停留的現象,即對B會更有強烈的烙印,從而誤認為B是真相而誤聽。有鑒于此,烤鴨備考中更應提防前肯后否這種隱形殺手!
