III. 近義表達(dá)替換

近義表達(dá)替換是所有替換中難度系數(shù)最大,使得考生得分率最低的陷阱之一,旨在考察考生真實(shí)的語言能力和隨機(jī)應(yīng)變的能力。分析認(rèn)為此類陷阱干擾性較大,需要考生能聽懂說話者的言外之意。所以為了得到高分,考生務(wù)必使出渾身解數(shù),與出題者“斗智斗勇”。

難度系數(shù):★★★

IV. 詞性替換

詞性替換在雅思聽力考試中出現(xiàn)概率不高,由于此類陷阱出現(xiàn)形式比較單一,所以難度系數(shù)一般不是特別高,只要考生小心對待,就可以減少失分率。

本題答案:classroom (班級)。

原文錄音:But I’m afraid I didn’t manage to get hold of the essays about classroom management.

詞性轉(zhuǎn)換: manage (動詞) ← 對應(yīng) → management(名詞)
