09年一季度雅思机经总结雅思听力机经总结 (2)雅思写作机经总结..................................................。

9 雅思口语机经总结 (15)雅思阅读机经总结 (29)09年一季度雅思听力机经总结第一季度的雅思听力题可以简单概括为：“新题”５５％“旧题”４５％“填空题”７０％“选择及配对题”３０％难度适中观察和分析了一月到三月雅思考试听力题我们可以发现，旧题的重现率还是比较高的。

除了一月十七号和二月七号这两次考试只在Section1中出现机经外，其他考试均有两个或两个以上Section出现了机经，覆盖率达50%--75%。

所以，对于广大考生来说，多加练习并做熟机经是非常重要的。

为了进一步说明这一观点，我想对部分考题按照不同的听力场景进行分析和归类。

第一季度不同版本的分类解析及部分答案Section1 V07141 S1租房场景Jim和Peter合租房子的问题peter说他的房间比较大，所以他出钱多一点，Jim的房间小，只要出80 dollars车子可以停在车库里，garage电话在厨房kitchen(?)还是bedroom?然后有一题是heater，又一题，说需要一个roaster两个人会在Friday evening 看球赛Jim在supermarket工作peter说希望Jim 1st June 搬进去Jim说他会在exam后搬进去对话题。

租房场景的常考考点及听辨关键词：房间大小的选择。

房价的考虑。

对车库，厨房，起居室，卧室等部分的要求。

对基础设施和家电的需求和选择。

租房者的职业和自身背景，习惯和爱好。

租房的起止日期等等。

对细节听辨要求高，往往考点散步在每段对话的2-3个回合中，信号词强烈。

Section2 V06125 S2段子题。

是红松鼠的文章说的是那种松鼠的名字，本来那个作者（可能是照相方面职业）觉得那种松鼠的名字没什么意义，结果作者研究了一下觉得很合适啊，名字的意思是躲在尾巴阴影下的动物，总之很形象，然后介绍那种松鼠数量减少的原因是NUTS 方面相关的，注意，前面这些是选择题，然后开始，然后作者介绍要照好这种动物的照片，要有什么技巧。

生命是永恒不断的创造，因为在它内部蕴含着过剩的精力，它不断流溢，越出时间和空间的界限，它不停地追求，以形形色色的自我表现的形式表现出来。

0903高口听力各部分全文本及解析（上半场）：Spot-Dictation文本When Americans think about hunger,we usually think in terms of mass-starvation in far-away countries,but hunger too often lurks in our backyards.In2006,35.1million people,including 12.4million children in the United States did not have access to enough food for an active healthy life.Some of these individuals relied on emergency food sources and some experienced hunger. Although most people think of hungry people and homeless people as the same,the problem of hunger reaches far beyond homelessness.While the number of people being hungry or at the risk of hunger may be surprising,it is the faces of those hungry individuals that would probably most shock you.The face of hunger is the older couple who has worked hard for their entire lives,only to find their savings wiped out by unavoidable medical bills,or a single mother who has to choose whether the salary from her minimum wage job will go to buy food or pay rent,or a child who struggles to concentrate on his schoolwork because his family couldn’t afford dinner the night before.At December2006survey estimated that48percent of those requesting emergency food assistance,were either children or their parents.Children are twice as likely to live in households where someone experiences hunger and food insecurity than adults.One in ten adults compared to one in five children live in households where someone suffers from hunger and some food insecurity.Child poverty is more wide spread in the United States than in any other industrialized country.At the same time,the US government spends less than any industrialized country to pull its children out of poverty.We have long known that the minds and bodies of small children need adequate food to develop properly.But science is just beginning to understand the full extent of this relationship.As late as the1980s,conventional wisdom held that only the most severe forms of malnutrition actually alter brain development.The latest empirical evidence however shows that even relatively mild under-nutrition produces cognitive imperiments in children which can last a life time.解析此段高口的Spot Dictation整体难度较低，主题较为浅显易懂。

0903中级口译考试听力部分文本Spot dictationYou might think that hamburgers were invented in the United States,but that is not totally true. These round,flat cakes or patties actually came from Germany in the middle of the19th century. They were brought to the United States by German immigrants who came from the city of Hamburg.That is why their name was Hamburger Stake.However,people in other places claim that they invented the hamburger.Perhaps we’ll never have a clear answer.But there is no question that the hamburger was a great hit.Why?Perhaps because at that time,industry was growing,and the kind of fast,practical and cheap food was needed for workers.The hamburger became even more popular in the1920s when the first chain of fast food restaurants was started.This chain was called White Castle.It served tiny hamburgers that were sold for only5cents each.Then,in the 1940s there came the drive-in restaurant where customers were served in their cars by waiters in uniform.And the hamburger was one of the most popular manual items.By now,the hamburger was ready to conquer the world and this happened with McDonalds,which was actually a hotdog stand at first.But by the early1950s the hotdog was replaced by the hamburger.McDonalds and other fast food restaurants spring up around the world throughout the west of the20th century. McDonalds alone has sold12hamburgers for every person in the world.The importance of the hamburger to US culture remains significant.About60%of all sandwiches that are eaten are hamburgers.According to some sources,7%of current workers in the Untied States had their first job at McDonalds.But the face of the hamburger is changing according to the times.Nowadays it is possible to buy a chicken burger,a turkey burger,a fish burger or a veggie burger.Statement:1.Mrs Jones came to us at the airport.We thought she was the secretary but she turned out to bethe president of the company.2.After Susan carefully explained her ideas at the board meeting last week,the directors all votedfor the change she’s made concerning the proposed project3.Of the students participating in our university’s research project,73%classified themselves asfreshmen and sophomores.4.Originally we had planned to buy a car by the end of last year,but then with the recentfluctuation of the crude oil prices we decided to postpone the purchase.5.Most people I know are interested in the proposed tax reform being debated in the congressbecause they hope it will lower taxes for them.6.If you’re good at managing your own time and energy,it is very likely that you can do wellboth in your schoolwork and for your career7.Mr.Paul White,thank you very much for your inquiry,but I feel the position more suits afemale applicant.Anyway,I will keep your name on file.8.Is this your best quote?I thought the prices will be coming down now given the currentsituation of financial and economic crisis.st month our manager took a ten-day business trip to Chicago,but he had to stay there for3more days situation as the negotiation turned out to be a tougher one.10.When our children are made confident that they are positive and competent individuals,theywill adapt themselves to the changing society and successfully accomplish personal goals.Talks and ConversationsPassage one(Q11-14)W：What are you laughing about?M:I just saw the serious advertisement on TV for Germen soups.It’s said our products are home-made with the freshest vegetables and fruits.Then a scene in the factory showed that products were prepared and packed by the most sophisticated machinery.W:And I am sure that the word NATURE was put on the jars and cans of the products.I think the stupidest advertisements are those that imply that you are one of a kind.If you buy the product, you will be a very special person.Now you will be just like every other one of the20billion people who bought it.M:That’s really silly.But to me,the dullest of them all is when advertisers put a celebrity on TV to talk about a particular brand of soap or about a particular car.I bet that the celebrity’s never used the product before they got the job of appearing in the commercial.W:Yeah!But most of these commercials work and people remember the product.M:I agree,here we are talking about ads we’ve seen,aren’t we?We are all influenced by those celebrities and brand names.W:I think teenagers are specially vulnerable.Advertisers try to get teenagers used to a brand because they know that in later years,the teenagers will stick to that particular product of theirs.Question11:What in the advertisement has made the man laugh?Question12:When some ads imply that you are one of a kind,what does that mean?Question13:Why does the advertiser put the celebrity on TV to talk about a particular product? Question14:According to the women,what will teenagers do if they are used to a brand?Passage two(Q15-18)Many of you may have heard of jet lag,which is a condition of space disorders,resulting from rapid travel over time zones.Such as on a jet plane.The symptom of jet lag can be quite varied,and may include loss of appetite,nausea,headache,fatigue,insomnia,or even mild depression.Here are a few tips for you to avoid jetlag,or cope if you are stricken by the condition.First,adjust your biological rhythm several days before your departure,and develop a plan to start switching to the time zone of your destination.For instance,if you will be flying from New York to Paris,where it is6hours later,get up one hour earlier for a couple of days,then2hours earlier, then3hours earlier,I will try to at least get half way to your new time zone.Turn lights on during day time in your destination,and off at night time.Second,during the time of your adjustment, especially during the flight,drink plenty of water.If you are not a big water fan,drink some other fluid that is not high in sugar,carbonation and caffeine;avoid junk food,salty food and caffeine, and alcohol on the plane.Of course I say that,but I always have a couple of drinks during the flight. If you do that,just be sure to drink as much water between drinks as possible.Thirdly,when you arrive in your destination,try to resist the urge to nap during the day time.Get outside,during the daylight hours,even it is just to sit in a caféand relax.Try to get a good night sleep for the1st couple of nights.The key is to reset your body’s natural clock to get enough rest.Finally,when you return home,use some of the same tactic above to return to your previous time zone.Q15.What’s the speaker’s definition of jet lag?Q16.What’s the difference of the time zone between New York and Paris?Q17.what does the speaker recommend if you do not want to drink much water during the flight?

The purpose of these clubs is,first of all,to get the students from the same countries together,so they won’t get too homesick,and so we can help each other over the rough spots.And secondly,so that the American students can join the club of their interest and learn about our culture as we learn theirs.Now,about the display.Some of you old hands will have to help me out,as there was so much going on I can’t remember at all.Let me see.There are the Scottish folk dance and Irish one,too.

专家对09年雅思考试的两大方向性预测2008年的雅思考试就快结束，2009年的考试即将来临，在这里我们回顾过去，展望未来，为2009年参加雅思考试的考生提供一些备考的方向。

一、雅思口语——不降反升自从2008年4月网上开始流传雅思口语考试将引入“发音估量表”之后，很多同学都在担心雅思口语的分数将会受到影响，很多网站也预测，中国考生雅思口语的分数将再次降低到一个新的低谷。

但是最新的数据显示，中国学生的雅思口语成绩不但没有下降，反而在这一年中有小幅的攀升，而且考7.5和8分以上成绩的学生明显比以前增多了。

最重要的是，那些肯于在发音上下苦功夫的学生从中获得了实惠，分数上确实有了增加。

虽然我们不能完全排除老师的因素，但是我认为雅思同学们应该多在口语发音和语流语调方面下功夫，从而获得更好的成绩。

二、雅思阅读——两种题型2008年5月以来，雅思阅读一直呈现一个特点，就是summary题和matching题出奇得多，而之前被人们认为最难的题目Y、N、NG题却逐渐淡出了人们的视线，成为了真正的“配角”。

我认为这种趋势将在2009年的考试中继续存在，原因有二：其一，2001年雅思阅读一直采用Y、N、NG题，这使得很多考生已经对这种题型产生了“免疫”，再加上各个学校的老师又不断地提出新的方法帮助学生应对这种题型，使得学生做这种题目的正确率越来越高。

其二，summary和matching两种题型不但体现了雅思考试的特点，考察考生的阅读速度，而且能够有效地考察考生对文章整体的把握，再加上很多学生在作答这两类题型容易着急，大大影响了考试成绩。

综合以上两个方面，我认为2009年的雅思阅读将继续延续这种态势，直至2009年4月。

综上所述，我认为2009年的雅思将给考生们带来更多的障碍，但是同时对我们也是一个机会，只要我们把握好考试方向，认真备考，就一定成获得满意的成绩。
