二、介詞短語：

真題演練：

1、劍橋 2 test 4 Q10

Workman to call between ……….and………….. 答案：1pm 5pm

2、劍橋 2 test 2 Q15

Students need a front door key between ………and……….. 答案：8pm 7am

注意：between……and……….在聽力錄音中會被換掉，簡單地替換一般是from ..to…，但考官會采取較難的替換方式。比如上述第一題的錄音內(nèi)容是：

AGENT: Well, you tell us your preferred times?

PAUL: The best time is about 1.00.

AGENT: I have to check that with him. And if he can’t make it then, what would be your second preference?

PAUL: Any time up to 5pm would be fine.

第二題的錄音內(nèi)容是：

To the front door which you have just come through here from the street. This door is closed and locked at 8pm every night and opened again at will need your key if you are coming back to the college between those times.

我們從錄音的內(nèi)容中可以看出，聽力考官對錄音做了很大的改動。但是站在做題的角度上，考生只需要知道這個(gè)題要填寫的是時(shí)間，并且填寫時(shí)間的順序要和原文一致，不可顛倒就可以了。一句話，考官考察什么，考生聽什么。

3.劍橋5 test 5 Q24

Listening to British students’ language because of: normal speed large amount of …………

答案：slang

注意：本題目需要考生了解amount of 后面要填寫不可數(shù)名詞，以免因?yàn)閱螐?fù)數(shù)丟分。并要掌握此類的計(jì)量短語結(jié)構(gòu)，比如：lots of ,a number of 等等，并理清楚單復(fù)數(shù)。

4、劍橋6 test 1 Q32

New technology allowed the production of goods made of………..and………….

從made of 可以判斷要填寫某種材質(zhì)??? 答案：metal ; leather

5、劍橋5 test 3 Q34

Glass designed to be utilized for（表示用途或目的）………. cannot be recycled with other types of glasses??? 答案：cooking

從上述的分類和實(shí)例中，我們可以看到介詞在雅思聽力中的重要性。強(qiáng)烈建議考生在審題過程中應(yīng)對介詞加以重視，這樣就會更進(jìn)一步地看出試題的考點(diǎn)，提前有所準(zhǔn)備。因此，自己在做題的過程中，才能更加準(zhǔn)確地找到答案的準(zhǔn)確位置，不會因?yàn)樗俣瓤鞗]有反應(yīng)過來，也不會受到錄音中信息的干擾從而漏題，做錯(cuò)題最終導(dǎo)致失分。
