雅思听力培训：信号词要了解

英语听力考试如何攻克，除了平时多练习积累意外，还有一类词很关键。听清楚这类词不但可以快速跟上speaker的节奏避免出现漏题的情况，还可以较准确地定位正确答案。这类词叫做“信号词”。今天就来学习学习雅思听力中的信号词吧!

顺序信号词

尤其在流程图的填空题中，或者描述实验步骤的独白中出现。

first, first of all, to begin with ...

second, then , next , before that, finally, last, meanwhile, until

Before I move on to ...

Next, I’d like to ...

Right, so the first thing ...

And what about...?

One more thing

for one thing… for the other…

Finally, can you tell us...

last but not least

强调信号词

强调信号词有助于同学们对某一细节事实加深理解和认识，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同义替换，需注意甄别。

That is, That is to say, I mean, namely

in particular, especially,

to be exact,

in other words, Let’s put it this way

并列或转折信号词

这类信号词可以说是逢考必出现，而且出现不止一次，所以要求同学们熟练掌握。当听到表示转折的词或短语时，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。

并列信号词：

and, as well as, together with, not only…but also…, also

转折：

but, however, actually, well, in fact, although, even if, despite, whereas, by/in contrast, by comparison, 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，可知正确答案应为48小时。

列举信号词

顾名思义，列举信号词是细节描述最常见的信号词，鸟事对同类事物的列举或对于上文的补充。也就是说，出现这类词，一定是细节类的内容，比如例子等。若未听清其前面的内容，也可根据这类信号词推断前文。

for instance, for example, such as, like

in addition to, what’s more , furthermore, besides, moreover
