Early learning childcare center enrolment form 难度点评： 多选题-题⼲为常规题⼲，没有特殊限定条件，选项从五个⽅⾯展开，因此要提前审查，适当标记关键词。

单选题-常规难度 匹配题-较简单，原因在于选项为专有名词，所以同意替换出现在题⼲上。

但是往往此类匹配题，⾳频中会将各个选项进⾏类⽐混淆，考⽣的答题感受就是每⼀个选项都有听到，但是却与题⼲对应不上。

在本题中，同学们仔细观察题⼲，就会发现主语均为‘it’，指代所有选项中的专有名词，所以选项在⾳频中应该多数作为句⼦的主语，评论‘comment’跟随其后。

建议考⽣在解答此类匹配题时，笔尖指着选项，并随着主语的切换⽽移动笔尖，眼睛看着题⼲，当听到⾳频中出现近意信息时果断选择笔尖指着的选项。

此类匹配题相对于同意替换出现在选项中的匹配题略简单，但是往往⾳频节奏较快，题⽬之间没有太多的过渡句，同学们千万跟上⾳频节奏。

Q11 and 12, 题⼲关键词things以及专有名词词组Dolphin conservation Trust，同学们理解成⼀个组织就可以了，会在⾳频中完整出现，作为多选题的开始的路标词。

选项关键词： A. Children, most, membership B. Largest C. Finance campaigns D. Employs experts E. Volunteer various 答案句1：The charity uses its money to support campaigns - for example, for changes in fishing policy and so forth。

其中money对应C选项finance，finance译为动词，供给…经费;campaigns对应选项中的campaigns，fishing policy译为捕鱼政策，对应选项中fishing practices。

Early learning childcare center enrolment form 难度点评： -⼲扰信息多，⼏乎每⼀个问题都在⾳频中给出了⾄少两个备选答案，但⼀般以两⼈意见达成⼀致的为准，往往此类信息置后。

-字母M/N的区分 -答案信息前置，在通过题⼲信息定位到答案句时，其中的答案信息为代词，指代之前已经提到的答案，详见第10题。

Personal details: Q1,题⼲出现age，反推答案句为表达年龄的句式，重点听‘how old…your daughter’s age is…’等问句后内容。

答案句：She’s three now but she turns four next month….I’ll put four down，以转折后信息为准，答案为4。

拓展：关于雅思听⼒中答案词为数字时的写法，建议写阿拉伯数字，虽然本题写成four也正确，但是写成阿拉伯数字的优势有两个，⼀是不会产⽣拼写错误;⼆是当字数要求为‘No more than one word and/or a number’时，如果答案为‘两个⽅向’，写成two directions，错误。

写成2directions正确。

因此，为了规避犯错风险，建议考⽣把数字均写成阿拉伯数字形式。

Q2,题⼲出现address，注意听⼒中出现过address的三个常见发⾳，分别为：[ə'dres]，[ˈædres]，[ə'dri:s]。

地址格式：数字+名称+街道，本题道路名称给出了拼写，但是要注意M/N的区分。

⼀般来说，单词在拼写之前，会先发⾳，考⽣可以现根据发⾳规律预测字母。

M/N的另⼀个区分点在于是否有闭⼝⾳，M⾳频中含有闭⼝⾳m，因此听到闭⼝⾳时往往为字母M。

答案句：It’s 46 Wombat Road, that’s W-O-M-B-A-T. Childcare Information Q3,通过空前Monday以及and预测答案信息为星期，星期中注意星期三Wednesday，星期四Thursday，星期⼆Tuesday，星期六Saturday的拼写，常考察。

二、具体题目分析Passage 1题目：Ahead of the time题号：旧题参考文章：Mammoth KillMammoth is any species of the extinct genus Mammoths, proboscideans commonly equipped with long，curved tusks and in northern species, a covering of long hair. They lived from the Ptiocene epoch from around 5 million years ago，into the Hotocene at about 4，500 years ago，and were members of the family Elephantidae, which contains, along with mammoths, the two genera of modern elephants and their ancestors.ALike their modern relatives，mammoths were quite large. The largest known species reached heights in the region of 4m at the shoulder and weights up to 8 tonnes, while exceptionally large males may have exceeded 12 tonnes. However，most species of mammoth were only about as large as a modem. Asian elephant. Both sexes bore tusks. A first, small set appeared at about the age of six months and these were replaced at about 18months by the permanent set. Growth of the permanent set was at a rate of about 1 to 6 inches per year. Based on studies of their close relatives, the modem elephants, mammoths probably had a gestation period of 22 months, resulting in a single calf being born. Their social structure was probably the same as that of African and Asian elephants, with females living in herds headed by a matriarch, whilst hulls lived solitary lives or formed loose groups after sexual maturity.BMEXICO CITY-Although it’s hard to imagine in this age of urban sprawl and auto mobiles. North America once belonged to mammoths，camels，ground sloths as large as cows, bear-size beavers and other formidable beasts. Somel 1,000 years ago，however, these large bodied mammals and others-about 70 species in all-disappeared. Their demise coincided roughly with the arrival of humans in the New World and dramatic climatic change-factors that have inspired several theories about the die-off. Yet despite decades of scientific investigation, the exact cause remains a mystery. Now new findings offer support to one of these controversial hypotheses: that human hunting drove this megafaunal menagerie (巨型动物兽群)to extinction. The overkill model emerged in the 1960s，when it was put forth by Paul S. Martin of the University of Arizona. Since then, critics have charged that no evidence exists to support the idea that the first Americans hunted to the extent necessary to cause these extinctions. But at the annual meeting of the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology in Mexico City last October, paleo ecologist John Alroy of the University of California at Santa Barbara argued that, in fact, hunting-driven extinction is not only plausible, it was unavoidable. He has determined, using acomputer simulation that even a very modest amount of hunting would have wiped these animals out.CAssuming an initial human population of 100 people that grew no more than 2 percent annually, Alroy determined that if each band of, say, 50 people killed 15 to 20 large mammals a year, humans could have eliminated the animal populations within 1,000 years. Large mammals in particular would have been vulnerable to the pressure because they have longer gestation periods than smaller mammals and their young require extended care.DNot everyone agrees with Alroy’s assessment. For one, the results depend in part on population-size estimates for the extinct animals-figures that are not necessarily reliable. But a more specific criticism comes from mammologist Ross D. E. Mac Phee of the American Museum of Natural History in New York City, who points out that the relevant archaeological record contains barely a dozen examples of stone points embedded in mammoth bones (and none, its hould be noted, are known from other mega faunal remains)-hardly what one might expect if hunting drove these animals to extinction. Furthermore, some of these species had huge ranges the giant Jefferson's ground sloth’ for example, lived as far north as the Yukon and as far south as Mexico which would have made slaughtering them in numbers sufficient to cause their extinction rather implausible, he says.EMacPhee agrees that humans most likely brought about these extinctions (as well as others around the world that coincided with human arrival), but not directly. Rather hesuggests that people may have introduced hyper lethal disease, perhaps through their dogs or hitchhiking vermin，which then spread wildly among the immunologically naive species of the New World. As in the overkill model, populations of large mammals would have a harder time recovering. Repeated outbreaks of a hyper disease could thus quickly drive them to the point of no return. So far Mac Phee does not have empirical evidence for the hyper disease hypothesis, and it won't be easy to come by: hyper lethal disease would kill far too quickly to leave its signature on the bones themselves. But he hopes that analyses of tissue and DNA from the last mammoths to perish will eventually reveal murderous microbes.FThe third explanation for what brought on this North American extinction does not involve human, beings. Instead, its proponents blame the loss on the weather. The Pleistocene epoch witnessed considerable climatic instability, explains paleontologist Russell W. Graham of the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. As a result, certain habitats disappeared, and species that had once formed communities split apart. For some animals, this change brought opportunity. For much of the megafauna, however, the increasingly homogeneous environment left them with shrinking geographical ranges-a death sentence for large animals, which need large ranges. Although these creatures managed to maintain viable populations through most of the Pleistocene, the final major fluctuation-the so-called Younger Diyas event pushed them over the edge, Graham says. For his part, Alroy is convinced that human hunters demolished the titans of the Ice Age. The overkill model explains everything the disease and climate scenariosexplain, he asserts, and makes accurate predictions about which species would eventually go extinct.“Personally，I’m a vegetarian,” he remarks, “and I find all of this kind of gross 一bubelievable.”Passage 2 ：题目：Chinese Yellow Citrus Ant for Biological Control题型：判断题+配对题题目：旧题类似原文：Chinese Yellow Citrus Ant for Biological ControlAIn 1476 , the farmers of Berne in Switzerland decided, according to this story, there was only one way to rid their fields of the cutworms(糖蛾)attacking their crops. They took the pests to court. The worms were tried, found guilty and excommunicated by the archbishop (大主教).In China, farmers had a more practical approach to pest control. Rather than rely on divine intervention (神学的调停),they put their faith in frogs, ducks and ants. Frogs and ducks were encouraged to snap up (吃下)the pests in the paddies (稻田)and the occasional plague of locusts (蝗虫).But the notion of biological control began with an ant. More specifically, the story says，it started with the predatory yellow citrus (柑橘)ant Oecophylla smaragdina , which has been polishing off (打败)pests in the orange groves of southern China for at least 1700 years. The yellow citrus ant (黄蚁)is a type of weaver ant, which binds leaves and twigs with silk to form a neat, tent-like nest. In the beginning, farmers made do with the odd ants’nest here and there. But it wasn’t long before growing demand led to the development of a thriving trade in nests and a new type of agriculture—ant fanning.B Foran insect that bites, the yellow citrus ant is remarkably popular. Even byant standards, Oecophylla smaragdina is a fearsome predator. It’s big, runs fast and has a powerful nip—painful to humans but lethal to many of the insects that plague the orange groves of Guangdong and Guangxi in southern China. And for at least 17 centuries. Chinese orange growers have harnessed these six-legged killing machines to keep their fruit groves healthy and productive. The story explains that citrus fruits evolved in the Far East and the Chinese discovered the delights of their flesh early on. As the ancestral home of oranges, lemons and pomelos, China also has the greatest diversity of citrus pests. And the trees that produce the sweetest fruits，the mandarins—or kan—attract a host of plant-eating insects, from black ants and sap-sucking mealy bugs to leaf-devouring caterpillars (毛毛虫). With so many enemies, fruit growers clearly had to have some way of protecting their orchards.CThe West did not discover the Chinese orange growers' secret weapon until the early 20th century. At the time, Florida was suffering an epidemic of citrus canker (相橘溃疡)and in 1915 Walter Swingle，a plant physiologist working for the US Department of Agriculture, was, the story says, sent to China in search of varieties of orange that were resistant to the disease. Swingle spentsome time studying the citrus orchards around Guangzhou, and there he came across the story of the cultivated ant. These ants, he was told, were “grown”by the people of a small village nearby who sold them to the orange growers by the nestful (—整窝的).DThe earliest report of citrus ants at work among the orangetrees appears in a book on tropical and subtropical botany written by His Han in AD 304. “The people of Chiao-Chih sell in their markets ants in bags of rush matting. The nests are like silk. The bags are all attached to twigs and leaves which, with the ants inside the nests, are for sale. The ants are reddish-yellow in colour, bigger than ordinary ants. In the south if the kan trees do not have this kind of ant, the fruits will all be damaged by many harmful insects, and not a single fruit will be perfect.EInitially, farmers relied on nests which they collected from the wild or bought in the market where trade in nests was brisk. ‘It is said that in the south orange trees which are free of ants will have wormy fruits. Therefore the people race to buy nests for their orange trees, ‘wrote Liu Hsun in Strange Things Noted in the South, written about AD 890. The business quickly became more sophisticate. From the 10th century, country people began to trap ants in artific ial nests baited with fat. “Fruit growing families buy these ants from vendors who make a business of collecting and selling such creatures, “wrote Chuang Chi-Yu in 1130. “They trap them by filling hogs 'or sheep’s bladders with fat and placing them with the cavities open next to the ants 'nests. They wait until the ants have migrated into the bladders and take them away. This is known as ‘rearing orange ants’. “Fanners attached the bladders to their trees, and in time the ants spread to other trees and built new nests. By the 17th century, growers were building bamboo walkways between their trees to speed the colonization of their orchards. The ants ran along these narrow bridges from one tree to another and established nests “by the hundreds of thousands”.FDid it work? The orange growers clearly thought so. One authority, Chi TaChun，writing in 1700，stressed how important it was to keep the fruit trees free of insect pests, especially caterpillars. “It is essential to eliminate them so that the trees are not injured. But hand labour is not nearly as efficient as ant power...”Swingle was just as impressed. Yet despite this reports, many Western biologists were skeptical. In the West, the idea of using one insect to destroy another was new and highly controversial. The first breakthrough had come in 1888，when the infant orange industry in California had been saved from extinction by the Australian vedalia beetle. This beetle was the only thing that had made any inroad into the explosion of cottony cushion scale that was threatening to destroy the state’s citrus crops. But, as Swingle now knew，California’s “first，’was nothing of the sort. The Chinese had been expert in biocontrol for many centuries.GThe story goes on to say that the long tradition of ants in the Chinese orchards only began to waver in the 1950s and 1960s with the introduction of powerful organic (I guess the authormeans chemical insecticides). Although most fruit growers switched to chemicals, a few hung onto their ants. Those who abandoned ants in favour of chemicals quickly became disillusioned (幻想破灭). As costs soared and pests began to develop resistance to the chemicals, growers began to revive the old ant patrols. They had good reason to have faith in their insect workforce. Research in the early 1960s showed that as long as there were enough ants in the trees，they did an excellent job of dispatching some pests—mainly the larger insects—and had modest success against others. Trees with yellow ants producedalmost 20 per cent more healthy leaves than those without. More recent trials have shown that these trees yield just as big a crop as those protected by expensive chemical sprays.HOneapparent drawback of using ants—and one of the main reasons for the early skepticism by Western scientists—was that citrus ants do nothing to control mealy bugs， waxy-coated scale insects which can do considerable damage to fruit trees. In fact，the ants protect mealy bugs in exchange for the sweet honeydew they secrete. The orange growers always denied this was a problem but Western scientists thought they knew better. Research in the 1980s suggests that the growers were right all along. Where mealy bugs proliferate under the ants ‘protection they are usually heavily parasitized and this limits the harm they can do. Orange growers who rely on carnivorous ants rather than poisonous chemicals maintain a better balance of species in their orchards. While the ants deal with the bigger insect pests, other predatory species keep down the numbers of smaller pests such as scale insects and aphids(蚜虫). In the long run， ants do a lot less damage than chemicals—and they’re certainly more effective than excommunication.Questions 14-18Use the information in the passage to match the year (listed A-G) with correct description below.

All around us the persuaders are at work. Occasionally their methods are unsubtle--the planting kiss on a baby’s head by a wannabe political leader，or a liquidation sale in a shop that has been “closing down” for well over a year，but generally the persuaders know what they are about and are highly capable. Be they politicians, supermarket chains, salespeople or advertisers，they know exactly what to do to sell us their images, ideas or produce. When it comes to persuasion, these giants rule supreme. They employ the most skilled image-makers and use the best psychological tricks to guarantee that even the mostcautious among us are open to manipulation.BWe spend more time in them than we mean to, we buy 75 percent of our food from them and end up with products that we did not realize we wanted. Right from the start, supermarkets have been ahead of the game. For example，when Sainsbury introduced shopping baskets into its 1950s stores, it was a stroke of marketing genius. Now shoppers could browse and pick up items they previously would have ignored. Soon after came trolleys, and just as new roads attract more traffic, the same applied to trolley space. Pro Merlin Stone, IBM Professor of Relationship Marketing at Bristol Business School，says aisles are laid out to maximize profits. Stores pander to our money-rich, time-poor lifestyle. Low turnover products—clothes and electrical goods are stocked at the back while high---turnover items command position at the front.CStone believes supermarkets work hard to “stall” us because the more time we spend in them, the more we buy. Thus, great efforts are made to make the environment pleasant. Stores play music to relax us and some even pipe air from the in-store bakery around the shop. In the USA，fake aromas are sometimes used. Smell is both the most evocative and subliminal sense. In experiments, pleasant smells are effective in increasing our spending. A casino that fragranced only half its premise saw profit soar in the aroma一 filled areas. The other success story from the supermarkets' perspective is the loyalty card. Punters may assume that they are being rewarded for their fidelity, but all the while they are trading information about their shopping habits. Loyal shoppers could be paying 30% more by sticking totheir favorite shops for essential cosmetics.DResearch has shown that 75 percent of profit comes from just 30 percent of customers. Ultimately, reward cards could be used to identify and better accommodate these “elite” shoppers. It could also be used to make adverts more relevant to individual consumers—rather like Spielberg’s futuristic thriller Minority Report, in which Tom Cruise’s character is bombarded with interactive personalized ads. If this sounds far-fetched, the data gathering revolution has already seen the introduction of radio—frequency identification—away to electronically tag products to what, FRID means they can follow the product into people homes.ENo matter how savvy we think we are to their ploys，the ad industry still wins. Adverts focus on what products do or on how they make us feel. Researcher Laurette Dube, in the Journal of Advertising Research, says when attitudes are base on “cognitive foundations” (logical reasoning), advertisers use informative appeals. This works for products with little emotional draw buthigh functionality, such as bleach. Where attitude are based on effect (i.e, 5 emotions), ad teams try to tap into our feelings. Researchers at the University of Florida recently concluded that our emotional responses to adverts dominate over “cognition”.FAdvertisers play on our need to be safe (commercials for insurance), to belong (make customer feel they are in the group in fashion ads) and for selfes— teem (aspirational adverts). With time and space at a premium, celebrities are often used as a quick way of meeting these needs—either because the celebepitomizes success or because they seem familiar and so make the product seem “safe”. A survey of 4,000 campaigns found ads with celebs were 10 percent more effective than without. Humor also stimulates a rapid emotional response. Hwiman Chung, writing in the International Journal of Advertising, found that funny ads were remembered for longer than straight ones. Combine humor with sexual imagery—as in Wonder bra，s “Hello Boys” ads and you are on t o a winner.GSlice-of-life ads are another tried and tested method they paint a picture of life as you would like it, but still one that feels familiar. Abhilasha Mehta, in the Journal of Advertising Research, noted that the more one’s self-image tallies with the brand being advertised, the stronger the commercial. Ad makers also use behaviorist theories，recognizing that the more sensation we receive for an object, the better we know it. If an advert for a chocolate bar fails to cause salivation, it has probably failed. No wonder advertisements have been dubbed the “nervous system of the business world”.HProbably all of us could make a sale if the product was something we truly believed in, but professional salespeople are in a different league——the best of them can always sell different items to suitable customers in a best time. They do this by using very basic psychological techniques. Stripped to its simplest level, selling works by heightening the buyer’s perception of how much they need a product or service. Buyers normally have certain requirements by which they will judge the suitability of a product. The seller therefore attempts to tease out what these conditions are and then explains how their products’ benefitcan meet these requirements.IRichard Hession，author of Be a Great Salesperson says it is human nature to prefer to speak rather to listen, and good salespeople pander to this. They ask punters about their needs and offer to work with them to achieve their objectives. As a result, the buye r feels they are receiving a “consultation” rather than a sales pitch. All the while，the salesperson presents with a demeanor that takes it for granted that the sale will be made. Never will the words “if you buy” be used, but rather “when you buy”.JDr. Rob Yeung, a senior consultant at business psychologists Kiddy and Partner, says most salespeople will build up a level of rapport by asking questions about hobbies, family and lifestyle. This has the double benefit of making the salesperson likeable while furnishing him or her with more information about the client’s wants. Yeung says effective salespeople try as far as possible to match their style of presenting themselves to how the buyer comes across. If the buyer cracks jokes, the salespeople will respond in kind. If the buyer wants detail, the seller provides it, if they are more interested in the feel of the product, the seller will focus on this. At its most extreme, appearing empathetic can even include the salesperson attempting to “mirror” the hob by language of the buyer.KWhatever the method used, all salespeople work towards one aim: “dosing the deal”. In fact, they will be looking for “closing signals” through their dealings with potential clients. Once again the process works by assuming success. The buyer isnot asked “are you interested?” as this can invite a negative response. Instead the seller takes it for granted that the deal is effectively done: when the salesman asks you for a convenient delivery date or asks what color you want, you will probably respond accordingly. Only afterwards might you wonder why you proved such a pushover.Passage1：日本画家介绍题型：匹配+填空+判断待回忆Passage2：纳米技术题型：匹配待回忆Passage3：中世纪英国儿童的娱乐活动题型：判断待回忆雅思阅读+听力考试真题阅读passage1 古代怎样传送信息莫斯电码发明后对现代人的信息交流产生了怎样的影响passage2 早期人类使用珠宝显示身份和地位，现代珠宝多用做装饰品及考古研究passage3 儿童智力发展听力2016年1月9日雅思听力真题解析A卷Section 1场景：电影院会员资格咨询及电影介绍题型：填空题1.

Listening ModuleListening Module (30 minutes & 10 minutes transfer time)听力原文：JANET: Hello?AGENT: Yes, I’d like to speak with Janet Evans, please.JANET: Speaking.AGENT: Hi Ms. Evans, this is Jim Rodriguez calling from Farrelly Mutual about your recent homeowner’s insurance inquiry. JANET: Yes, hi. Thanks for returning my call. AGENT: My pleasure. I understand you are potentially interested in insurance for a bungalow located a bit out of town. Could you give me the address? JANET: Sure, it’s [1]49 Greenway Court. Greenway is one word. AGENT: Thank you. Alright, and would you prefer to be contacted via email or phone? JANET: Either one is fine - maybe try emailing me first and as an alternative I can give you my phone number. AGENT: Great - and what is your email address? JANET: [2]pk2@.AGENT: Hm, did you say “cat,” as in the animal? JANET: Yes. It is the acronym for the construction company I work for - I’m sure you’ve seen them around. AGENT: Yes, I have. And could you give me your primary phone number, and the best time to reach you? JANET: Sure - the number is (020) 4251-9443. I am generally unable to answer my phone at work, but anytime after [3]5.30 p.m. is fine. AGENT: I will make a note of that here. Now I’m going to ask you a little bit about the property itself so we can make an accurate estimate of the cost of insuring your home. Could you tell me the size of your house? JANET: Um, well, I don’t have the exact measurements, but I’m pretty sure it’s right [4]around 80 square metres. ShouldI measure it and call you back later? AGENT: No, that’s completely alright. I’ll write80 square metres for now to get the estimate and then an agent will come get the exact measurements later on if you decide to purchase our insurance. JANET: Okay, great.AGENT: And what material is your house made of? For example, wood, brick, stucco... JANET: It’s mainly [5]brick. AGENT: Great - that will give you a lower rate than most other materials since it is so strong. JANET: Wonderful!AGENT: And do you have any sort of home security, Ms. Evans? JANET: Um, we don’t have a fence or anything yet, but [6]we have an alarm system that we use regularly. AGENT: Good.AGENT: Now I’ll go through a number of things we offer coverage for, and I’d like you to tell me which items you want your policy to cover. JANET: Okay. AGENT: We’ll start with the building itself first - would you like us to cover incidental damage to the structure to your house? JANET: Absolutely. AGENT: Splendid. And the contents inside your house - we usually cover all items with an appraised value above ￡200. Would you like us to cover theft and damage beyond natural wear-and-tear? I will let you know that the second option here will come with a considerable increase in your rates. JANET: I think I’d just like the contents of the house to be covered against theft then. AGENT: Alright - and would you like any other insurance - fire, flood, etc? JANET: Yes - [7]I definitely want flood coverage. It rains a lot here, and the drainage system in the area is not the greatest. AGENT: Okay. I am calculatingyour quotation now. It will just take a second. (Two seconds pause) It looks like your annual insurance rate will be ￡148.30. JANET: Thanks, that seems somewhat reasonable. I would like to take some time to think about it. How long does it take to begin receiving coverage after signing up? AGENT: It depends on the time of year - it can take anywhere from two to six weeks. I would say if you sign up by July 1st, you could start your coverage by [9]August 1st.JANET: I see. Okay, thanks for your help. Should I call you back at this number when I have made my decision? AGENT: Yes, please. And so that we can look up your account faster, I’ll give you a reference number that you should provide when calling. Ready? JANET: Yep! AGENT: It’s [10]TR278Q. JANET: Got it.

雅思（听力）历年真题试卷汇编30(题后含答案及解析) 题型有：1. Listening ModuleListening Module (30 minutes & 10 minutes transfer time)听力原文：AGENT: Hello, Elite Travel, this is Emily speaking, how may I assist you today? CUSTOMER: Hi, I have a group visit to plan, and I wonder whether you could help me decide on which hotel to book. I have narrowed it down to either the Winchester, the Royal Hotel, or the Star Hotel. I am wondering if you have a recommendation. AGENT: I would be happy to help! Those three are excellent choices. If everyone is booking hotel rooms independently, an easy way to do it is online booking. The Star Hotel offers online bookings at no additional charge. CUSTOMER: It sounds fine! AGENT: Yeah, and you can even book the gorgeous [1]sea view rooms if you act quickly. CUSTOMER: Hm, I will consider that. It would be great since we are mostly first-time visitors to the area to get a nice view of the water. Now, are there handicap accessible rooms? AGENT: [2]Yes, all three options have access for the physically disabled.CUSTOMER: Great. I should also mention that we will be on a tight schedule, so we won’t have much time to go out for meals. Which of these hotels serve food? AGENT: There is a limited continental breakfast menu at the Star and at the Winchester. [3]For a full restaurant and room service, the Royal Hotel is your best bet. CUSTOMER: Oh wonderful! Could you tell me more about the restaurant? AGENT: Absolutely. In the morning there is a gourmet buffet or a la carte item, and after 11 a.m. lunch is served in the dining room. [4]Dinners are in a nice, low-key but high quality setting in the hotel’s private dining room and Fridays feature the house jazz band. CUSTOMER: How lovely! Is there a group discount? AGENT: No, sorry. Not at the Royal hotel. Let me check on the others, though. Could I place you on hold for just a second? CUSTOMER: Sure, thanks. AGENT: [5]It looks like there is one at the Winchester - 15% off when you book 8 or more rooms. CUSTOMER: Really? Sold! We’ll book at the Winchester. Wait - is it suitable for children though? We’ll have a few little ones in our group, and it would be great to have a way to keep them occupied. AGENT: Yes. In fact, [6]it has a play place that kids just love, with slides, and swings and everything. Definitely a good hotel to bring the kids. CUSTOMER: Okay, great.CUSTOMER: So now I know where we’ll be staying, what next? Should I go ahead and book transportation and assign rooms and everything? AGENT: Well, for now, there are only a few things for you to take care of. We will hold a block of rooms for you as soon as you send a [7]deposit. I recommend booking as soon as possible, so you probably want to send the [8]invitations as soon as you know how many rooms to hold. CUSTOMER: Oh, right. Okay, I’ll send the invitations and put down the deposit. Is there anything else I should take care of? AGENT: Great! And don’t worry about this now, but sometime before you arrive do let us know if you’ll be requiring our [9]transport service to and from the airport. CUSTOMER: I’ll make sure to let you know. Does that incur a service charge? Orperhaps a tip, or some presents to show our gratitude for the personal car service? AGENT: Oh, don’t worry about it. It is a free service, so if you would like to tip you are welcome to do so, but hotel drivers do not accept [10]gifts. CUSTOMER: Thanks for your help! AGENT: My pleasure. Enjoy your stay at the Winchester!Which hotels have the following facilities?Write the correct letter, A, B, C, or D next to questions 1-6.A Royal HotelB Star HotelC Winchester HotelD All Three HotelsExample: Online booking B1．Sea view正确答案：B解析：注意Example处答案选项为B Star Hotel，据此大胆猜测：接下来谈论的很可能还是这家旅馆，当然也可能会转移新的话题。

2016雅思听力高失分率考题盘点雅思官方公布的中国考生雅思听力平均分只有5.8分，也就是说总题量为40题的听力题我们平均只能答对21到22题，用国内的评分标准计算连及格线都没有达到，这个结果多少还是令人不甚满意的。

所以，朗阁雅思培训中心的专家将在本文中为大家盘点雅思听力中的高失分率题，望大家好好利用。

我们将听力考试中的高失分错误分为以下几种：迷惑型错误，刁难型错误，语法型错误，常识型错误以及实力型错误。

本文将以剑桥真题以及一些机经题为例给大家一一展现雅思听力的高失分题。

一、迷惑型错题迷惑型错误，换言之，即干扰，也就是说考生觉得听到了答案，其实听到的是听力设置中的伪装答案，而非真正的解题处。

这种干扰一般分为数字干扰，否定干扰和特殊信息干扰。

1. 数字干扰请看剑桥雅思9 test2section1第4题：Number of years planned in hall:____________大家请看原文：M: Right, thank you. And how long would you want to stay in hall, do you think? W: Well, it'll take three years but I'd only like to stay in hall for two. I'd like to think about living outside for the third year.Section1出现数字考点几乎是肯定概率的事件，一般会涉及各基数词和序数词表示的内容，如telephone number, flight number以及credit card number, date等各种考法，而干扰则是此类考点中最易出现的失分点。

上题问计划住在学校宿舍的年数，而在听力原文中首先出现的three years是待的总年数，转折词but之后出现了与题干对应的信息stayin hall，故答案应是two。
