【雅思聽力】「配對型流程圖」解題步驟與實戰技巧

在IELTS雅思聽力的題型中,「流程圖」(flow chart)的題型測驗學員能否聽懂做一件事情的步驟。此題型經常出現在聽力的第二與第三部分。由於雅思聽力的篇幅較長,學員該如何從容地回答這種題型呢?在本篇文章中,我們將說明兩種流程圖的解題步驟,並且提供題目演練。

必學重點│指示字(Signpost Words)

如果我們要用中文解釋做事情的步驟,我們通常會這樣說:「首先......。然後......。接下來......」。相同地,在英文中,說話者也會利用這些「指示字」來銜接多個步驟。學員只要利用這些「指示字」來判斷說話者接著要解釋流程圖中的哪個步驟,接下來的聽力也就簡單許多了。

以下是流程圖題型中,說話者常使用的指示字種類與例子:

配對型流程圖解題步驟

讓我們用以下聽力第三部分的例題(from Cambridge IELTS 13)說明配對型流程圖的解題步驟。此對話的說話者在討論以種子發芽當作他們實驗的主題。

Complete the flow chart below.
Choose FIVE answers from the box and write the correct letter, A-H, next to questions 26-30.
Select seeds of different ___26___and sizes.
Measure and record the ___27___and size of each one.
Decide on the ___28___to be used.
Use a different ___29___for each seed and label it.
After about 3 weeks, record the plants’ ___30___.
Investigate the findings.

Step 1:詳讀作答指示

此大題要求我們用A到H選項的字填空。

Step 2:分析流程圖

判斷流程圖的主題,以及研究流程圖上的步驟。以例題來說,我們知道說話者將討論實驗的步驟。

Step 3:細讀題目

並且注意題目關鍵字的同義字或轉述語。

Step 4:留意指示字

如果說話者說到某個指示字,通常表示他們要接著說明下一個步驟。

Step 5:注意聽選項的同義字或轉述語

答案為聽力內容的同義字或轉述語。

讓我們研究以下的聽力稿。指示字我們用底線標明。

聽力稿:

(E = Emma; J = Jack)

E: Anyway, shall we have a look at the procedures for our experiment? We’ll need to get going with it quite soon.

J: Right. So the first thing we have to do is find our seeds. I think vegetable seeds would be best. And obviously they mustn’t all be the same size. So, how many sorts do we need? About four different ones?

E: I think that would be enough. There’ll be quite a large number of seeds for each one.

J: Then, for each seed we need to find out how much it weighs, and also measure its dimensions, and we need to keep a careful record of all that.

E: That’ll be quite time-consuming. And we also need to decide how deep we’re going to plant the seeds – right on the surface, a few millimeters down, or several centimeters.

J: OK. So then we get planting. Do you think we can plant several seeds together in the same plant pot?

E: No, I think we need a different one for each seed.

J: Right. And we’ll need to label them – we can use different coloured labels. Then we wait for the seeds to germinate – I reckon that’ll be about three weeks, depending on what the weather’s like. Then we see if our plants have come up, and write down how tall they’ve grown.

E: Then all we have to do is look at our numbers, and see if there’s any relation between them.

J: That’s right. So ...

以第26題來說,當我們聽到So the first thing we have to do的時候,我們知道說話者在討論第一個步驟。男生問how many sorts (of seeds) do we need?,sorts的同義字是types,所以答案為G。第27題的話,我們必須先聽到男生說的Then,以及接下來的for each seed we need to find out how much it weighs, and also measure its dimensions。how much it (the seed) weighs的轉述語為weight,所以答案為C。利用相同的方法,我們可以得知28題的答案為H(depths),29題的答案為A(container),30題的答案為E(height)。

在本篇文章中,我們討論了如何回答雅思聽力中的「流程圖」題型。希望學員可以將以上的方法應用在實際的題目中。請持續關注我們的文章,一起戰勝雅思考試喔!
