在准备雅思听力的时候,大部分的烤鸭们可能会有这样的迷思,听完一整个文章,完全get不到作者说了啥,越往后越抓狂,尤其是到了S3,S4学术类的文章,有种想要放弃,但又不得不继续的感觉。
大部分功能词其实本身并没有特别的意义,它们的存在主要是为了能使语法结构完整。
通过以上的的介绍,大家应该对两种词的分类,有了基本的了解,也应该能够得出这样的结论:content words的重要性远大于function words,抓住重要的content words,是做题的关键,并且一句话里的重读内容,通常都是content words.
让我们带着这个思路,来一起做一下题。

1.Type of transport __________

总结:
练习雅思听力的时候,记得多关注content words,它能够决定我们对文章的理解,思路的走向。千万不要认为听懂每一个单词才算是真正的听懂一篇文章,这样心很累。
P.S.content words的概念对练习雅思听力的原文精听和雅思口语同样适用哦。
