E.G.: ... because it had water, raw materials and fuels such as ______ and ______.
Audio Scripts: The water and the availability of raw materials ... and also the abundance of local fuels, like coal and firewood, ... (4-1-2)
此题可以通过fuels来定位,同时like和such as做同义词互换,也就是正确答案就是后面的并列关系的名词,但是此题的难点就是coal and firewood被读作/k∂ul∂n fаi∂wud/,这样就导致无法听出正确答案了。
(2)速记难点
当and连接的2个词语都要写出来的时候,不仅语音上面有难度,在速记上的要求也提高了。
E.G.: Site One: Problems with _______ and _______.
Audio Scripts: Site One was unpopular because of traffic and parking problems. (4-3-4)
New technology allowed the production of goods made of ______ and ______.
Audio Scripts: The technology they introduced meant that metal and leather goods were produced there for the first time. (6-1-4)
这两个例子都能看出来通过and定位很容易能找到答案,但是需要写的两个词语出现比较快,而且由于and的弱化,以及句子中的倒置,更加增加了填写的难度。
PART 3 注意事项
虽然and本身读音为/ænd/,在句子中弱化的读音却是/∂n/不会由于爆破而读成/æn/,因此我们在听力过程中不要听错。
E.G. Video Presentation: Go to _______
Audio Script: ... Now, after the break we'll be moving a different location for a video presentation ... and there you will be shown a video ... called Safety at Work.
此题的答案是Safety at Work这个地方读作/seifti æ w∂:k/。这边的答案一定要注意不是safety and work/seifti ∂n w∂:k/,虽然两个读音极像。
总的来说,我们可以发现,大部分在试卷上出现的and都会在文字答案中读出,尤其是需要填写的是两个答案是由and连接的时候,但是由于and本身的原因,在听力中较难听到,因此建议考生们在练习中需重点注意and的弱读,以及当and和别的词汇连读时产生的问题。
