第一大类: 时间类考点

在雅思听力中,数量型的考点非常多,无论在Section 1 到Section 4哪个场景都很常见。仅表示时间类的数量型考题就数不胜数。以下我们通过具体的实战例子来做详细解说吧!

  1. 631Q01:

(注:631Q1指的是:剑桥6,Test3,Section1的Q01。以下类推!)
题目:Date of birth:
﹍﹍﹍﹍ (ONE WORD AND/OR A NUMBER)
录音:Ok. And what’s your date of birth please?
The twenty seventh of the first, nineteen seventy-three.
解析:卷面“date”定性答案是数词。
录音中“date of birth”提示答案要出来了。
做题关键:考生们平时习惯人家念日期的时候,“日”用序数词形式来念,“月”用单词形式来念,“年”用分两半的形式来念。而本题中,“月”却是用序数词形式来念的,而且速度很快,导致很多学生不适应,一下子反应不过来。
对策:各种念日期的方式都接触到,以后碰到哪种就都能反应过来了!

  1. 711Q06:

题目:Date:
﹍﹍﹍﹍ (ONE WORD AND/OR A NUMBER)
录音:So what date do you want to book this for?
The 16th of October – oh, no, sorry, that’s my departure date. I arrive on the 17th, so book it for then, please.
解析:卷面“date”定性答案是数词。
录音中“what date”提示答案要出来了。
“oh, no, sorry” 改口,改口前的信息往往不正确,改口时候是准确信息,
“so”提示结论性答案要出来了。
“then” 是重复指“the 17th”
做题关键:陷阱与答案并存。然而,这里改口只改了具体日子(day),没改月份(month)!而有些同学一听见改口,就把改口前的所有信息都丢掉了,包括月份October, 导致填答案只填了 “the 17th”,而不是“17 October”

  1. 311Q06:

题目:Viewing arrangement: meet at office on ﹍﹍﹍﹍ at 5.00 pm
(NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS AND/OR A NUMBER)
录音:So, when would you be available to see them?
Well, I’ll be in town next week … say … Thursday?
No, I’m sorry we don’t have any availability for Thursday. How about Wednesday afternoon?
Ok. That’s fine. Would 5.00 be ok?
Yes, fine. 5.00 it is.
解析:卷面“on ﹍﹍﹍﹍ at 5.00 pm”定性答案是day,也就是星期几,因为,在时间中,只有星期几前面才用介词on。录音中“when” , “next week” 都提示答案到了。
做题关键:陷阱与答案并存。这里要先出现了个陷阱 “Thursday”。但马上有个“No, I’m sorry we don’t”,则,前面刚说的不是答案,阵阵的答案还在后面“How about Wednesday afternoon?” 因为对方用了个肯定回答“Ok. That’s fine.” 所以,最终答案应该是“Wednesday”

  1. 313Q23

题目:Teaching experience: Volunteer Teacher
Location: West Africa
Dates: ﹍﹍﹍﹍
(Write NUMBER AND/OR NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer)
录音:I was there for almost three years in total from 1999 to … umm … 1922.
解析:卷面“dates”定性答案是时间,肯定是数词。录音中“three years” 提示答案到了。
做题关键:“from 1999 to … umm … 1922”中间有个介词“to”, 不要因为“to”与 “two”的发音有一定相似性就把“to”错听成“two”。

  1. 322Q18

题目:Opening hours 9.30am – 6 pm (weekdays)
﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍ (Saturdays)
录音:The office is open between 9.30 and 6 on weekdays and from 10 to 4 on Saturdays …
解析:通过卷面可以判断答案为时间段,而且应该是am到pm。定位词为Saturdays.

  1. 241Q10

题目:workman to call between ﹍﹍﹍﹍ and ﹍﹍﹍﹍
(Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS or A NUMBER for each answer.)
录音:OK, fine. What we’ll do is to get someone over to you this afternoon, if you’re in.
Well, I’m going to be out for a short time.
Well you tell us your preferred times.
Well the best time is about 1.00.
I’ll have to check that with him. And if he can’t make it then, what would be your second preference?
Any time up to 5 pm would be fine.
解析:卷面“call between ﹍﹍﹍﹍ and ﹍﹍﹍﹍”定性答案是时间点(而且肯定是数词,要注意是am还是pm做单位)。
录音中“this afternoon” , “preferred times”, “best time”都提示答案到了。“second preference”提示另一个答案词到了。
做题关键:这里要注意单位都是pm。前面先提示是“this afternoon”,后面直接说了是“pm”

  1. 741Q03:

题目:Length of homestay:
﹍﹍﹍﹍ (NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS AND/OR A NUMBER)
录音:… and how long are you planning on staying with homestay?
About four months … longer if I like it …
解析:卷面“length”定性答案是数词。
录音中“how long”替换“length”。

  1. 741Q10:

题目:When will the student find out her homestay address?
﹍﹍﹍﹍ (NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS)
录音:Now, let me go check on the computer and see who I’ve got … Listen, leave it with me … I’ll check my records and I’ll give you details this afternoon.
解析:卷面“when”定性答案是时间(很有可能是数词,但不一定,也有可能是名词)。
录音中“now” 提示后面是新话题或者新内容,注意把握节奏;而“listen, leave it with me”提示后面有重要信息,甚至是答案。
做题关键:这里不是一个具体的数字答案,而是一个表示时间的名词:this afternoon, 对于部分同学来说难以捕获该单词。

  1. 211Q10

题目:When will Louise’s card be ready?
﹍﹍﹍﹍ (NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS)
录音:… but your card won’t be ready until next week.
解析:卷面“when”定性答案是时间(很有可能是数词,但不一定,也有可能是名词)。 “card be ready”定位。
录音中“but” 提示后面有答案。“card won’t be ready until”提示答案到了。
做题关键:这里不是一个具体的数字答案,而是一个表示时间的名词:next week,对于部分同学来说难以捕获该单词。

  1. 323Q25

题目:Personality Questionnaires
completed during ﹍﹍﹍﹍ (NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS
录音:… what are called ‘personality questionnaires’ to …
What’s it called?
A personality questionnaire. They have to be filled out by the candidates some time during the selection procedure…
解析:卷面“during”定性答案是时间(很有可能是数词,但不一定,也有可能是名词)。 “during”也可以在录音中帮助定位。“Personality Questionnaire” 在卷面做另一个定位词,在录音中故意重复,提示答案快到了。
做题关键:首先要对介词during的使用非常熟悉和敏感!其次,这里用动词fill out 替换了complete,很多同学不熟悉这种替换。要对此加以熟悉。

  1. 331Q09

题目:Must confirm in writing by: ﹍﹍﹍﹍
录音:When did you say they wanted confirmation by?
It was ... let’s see … the 4th of November.
解析:这里介词by后面应该跟时间类的词。因为是确认(confirm),而方式前面已经有了,用书面形式(in writing),那么,这里by后面肯定是时间了。
做题关键:卷面的confirm要熟悉。录音中的confirmation是confirm的同根词替换,录音中还有 “when”提示答案。而且,录音中运用了“拖长声音往往意味着有答案”的原则。

  1. 333Q30

题目:Send by: ﹍﹍﹍﹍
录音:And the last bit is, when will you send the equipment?
Well, we’ve got a lot of work on at the moment and we want to get it as good as we can.
Well, say 25 June?
Can’t we make it later?
Well, the last date is 1 July. Why not say that?
Ok, that’s what I’ll put.
解析:这里介词by后面应该跟时间类的词。
做题关键:录音中的“the last bit”提示本section的最后一个题目,即第30题要出现了。 “when”提示后面听时间类答案。
做题关键:陷阱和答案并存!先说了个时间是“say 25 June”,但是,另一人反对了,说:“Can’t we make it later”, 接下来才出真正的答案:“Well, the last date is 1 July. Why not say that?”,另一人赞同:“Ok, that’s what I’ll put.”所以答案才最终确认是“1 July”!

总结:
在雅思听力中,仅表示时间类的数字考题就数不胜数。卷面或录音中的提示词包括date, day, time, hours, length, how long, when, on, from … to …, between … and …, during, by等。

如果没有训练到位,时间类数量题将严重给考生分数拖后腿。但,如果考生对此训练到位,则时间类的数量题完全可以归类到送分题里去,并将大大提高考生的实战分数?

亲爱的考生,这样有规律而容易拿的分数,你捡还是不见捡呢?
