雅思听力中的逻辑信号词分享！

雅思听力中，很多考生们初次考试会遇到语速过快，当在长难句的时候，超过20个字符以上的句子，会让很多考生们听起来绕来绕去，抓不住重心，实则在雅思听力考试中，sperker通常在阐述个人观点的时候，会突出话语里面的重点，这些也就是我们常常说到的“逻辑信号词“，那么我们应该如何在漫长的公路上精准的找到我们的指示牌呢？就让Nick带你一起去了解一下吧。

我们可以通过并列连词推断出空格处的答案，这类信号词有：

转折处经常是考点所在，有时转折词后面也会出现干扰信息，大家要加以区分。这类信号词通常包含：

whereas, while, on the contrary, 

on the other hand, 

in comparison, by contrast…

二、案例

1、题目：

What is Brian going to do before the course starts?

A. attend a class

B. write a report

C. read a book

2、原文

A: Is there anything I should do before the course, like reading or anything?

B: We prefer to integrate reading with the course, so we don’t give out a reading list in advance. （C选项）But we like people to write a case study, describing an organisation they know.

A: I’ve already done that, as my friends told me you wanted one.（B选项） But would it be possible to sit in on a teaching session, to see what it’s like? I haven’t been a student for quite a while. （A选项）

B: Fine. Just let me know which date, and I’ll arrange it with the tutor.

3、相关解析

本题通过beforethecourse进行定位。起初，说话人在C选项中提到了reading，但这是一个立即被否定的干扰项。之后出现了but引出的另外一个干扰选项Bwriteacasestudy（report)，但是很快也被否定了，因为提问者已经写过了。最后，另一个转换信号词but引出sitinonateachingsession，确定正确答案为A。

三、总结

雅思听力相对中国考生们而言不算太难，不过也需要小心应对，在熟练雅思听力的节奏感后，精准的把握听力里面的信号词，根据信号词来找题目答案，只有这样才可以最大限度的让自己拥有充分的时间做其他的事情。
