雅思听力的的关键词会往往确定着听力答案

　一、顺序词

　　对顺序路标词的记忆有利于快速掌握speaker的节奏，以免跟丢题目。尤其是在流程图一类的填空题中，或是描述实验步骤的独白，这些词可称之为Marker words/phrases, 有时根据此类词可以判断音调突然转变，应当多加留心。

　　☆ first, first of all ,for a start, in the first place, to begin with …

　　second, followed by, third ,then , next , previously, before that finally, last, for one thing ,for another, meanwhile, until ,subsequently

　　☆ Now tell me … And now (we will) … Before I move on to … Next, I’d like to … Right, so the first thing … And what about…? Well, that’s about it, except for … I’d like not to move on to … One more thing Finally, can you tell us…

　　二、强调词

　　强调路标词有助于考生对某一细节事实的理解及加深认识，往往其后跟的就是考点，若对这些词不敏感，答案往往就溜走了。而这些词之间会进行paraphrase(同义置换)，需注意甄别。

　　☆ That is, That is to say, I mean, namely, in particular, specially

　　☆ especially, actually, to be exact, in other words, another way of saying this, Let’s put it this way, equally, etc.

　　三、转折词

　　转折路标词可以说是逢考必现，也就是百分之百会考到，而且不止出现一次，所以要求考生熟练掌握。在课堂实践教学中，朗阁海外考试研究中心发现有不少相 当聪明的同学，没有听懂对话的意思，却能准确识别出转折关系，从而找到正确答案(尤其是选择题)。所以当听到表示转折或对比的词或短语时，考生一定要集中 注意力，因为此时speaker会提供新信息或完全相反的观点，也就是考点所在。需要引起注意的是，but一词考试是会弱化的，类似于/b?/，所以考试 时一定要仔细辨音。

　　☆ 强转折： but, however, nevertheless, on the contrary, on the other hand, yet, while, whereas

　　☆ 让步：Although, though, even if, in spite of, despite

　　☆ 对比：by/in contrast, by comparison, as a matter of fact, instead, otherwise

　　Eg. Most people tend to book twenty-four hours in advance…however, the earliest you book a computer is forty-eight hours before you need it.

　　题目：Computer can be booked up to ___hours in advance.

　　如果注意到however一词，可知个数字24小时是个陷阱，而正确答案应为48小时。
