在雅思听力中,有时考生会遇到感觉自己听懂了录音内容却没做对或做不出题目的情况,其中一个原因就是遇到了熟悉的陌生人——熟词僻义,虽然认识这个词,但考点中的含义却和以往我们熟知的含义不同,以下为三个典型案例。

雅思听力中,有时考生会遇到感觉自己听懂了录音内容却没做对或做不出题目的情况,其中一个原因就是遇到了熟悉的陌生人——熟词僻义,虽然认识这个词,但考点中的含义却和以往我们熟知的含义不同,以下为三个典型案例。

1.Produce

熟词熟义:v.生产

熟词僻义:n.农产品

C15T2S4 题目:The marketing of produce was sometimes difficult due to lack of 36.__________.

在这个题目中,produce做名词表示农产品,录音原文中除了两次出现produce,还在第二次后出现了vegetables。(录音原文:However, getting the produce to places where it could be marketed was sometimes a problem, as the farmers did not have access to transport, and this resulted in large amounts of produce, especially vegetables, being spoiled.)

2.Discount

熟词熟义:n.折扣

熟词僻义:v.不理会 (英文释义:If you discount an idea, fact, or theory, you consider it is not true, not important, or not relevant.)

C11T4S3 题目:Mike Frost’s article suggests that in popular music, women’s dress is affacted by

A.Their wish to be taken seriously

B.Their tendency to copy each other

C.Their reaction to the masculine nature of the music

考点句录音原文...he suggests this is because otherwise they’d just be discounted as trivial,这里discount表示不理会,否则,他们会被不理会,认为是不重要的,反过来说就是他们希望被认真对待,只有掌握discount这个含义,才能顺利做对这道题。

3.Press

按压- 新闻

熟词熟义:v/n. 按压

熟词僻义:n.报纸

C10T2S2 13. Local newspaper have raised worries about ____

考点句录音原文:Now, there has been quite a bit of discussion in the local press about whether there would be enough room for the number of visitors we’re hoping to attract. 这里录音press 和newspaper做了个替换,如果不理解press也可以表示报纸,可能会丢掉定位,这个含义在剑桥真题系列的其他题目中也有过考察。
