事实上为了照顾考生，出题人在录音时也会想尽办法给大家提示，那他们会遵循什么核心要点呢?
1、转折原则
同学们想象一下自己在沟通的过程中是不是经常会出现：“挺好的，但是我觉得...”，往往“但是”后面的话才是重点 ，“十动然拒”(十分感动然后拒绝了ta)是同样的结构。在雅思听力中也是如此。
下面这个典型的例子大家一定要看看：
What does Karin think the company will do?
A look for private investors
B accept a takeover offer
C issue some new shares
在原文中就将三个选项全部提到了，最后听完“but”后面的内容才能选出答案：
KARIN: Hmm… Well, obviously they have the choice of accepting the very favourable terms that another company - KMG Plc- have given them to buy them out. That would mean creating a new company with a new image.
Or they could decide on a bolder move and offer some new shares if they wanted.
But I think they're much more cautious than that and expect they will start trying to find individuals who'd be prepared to back them with some of the capital they need.
除了“but”之外还会经常出现的转折词有：“however”——出现42次;“though”——出现“57”词;“rather than”——26次;“yet”——25次....还有1个词其实同学们一直没有意识到它也属于转折的范围，那就是“in fact”!而且足足出现了“57”次!一起来感受一下
原文中有两处用了“in fact”来暗示考生答案：
So I'm just collating the results now.
At the moment it looks as if, in the UK, despite the fact that newspapers continually report that people are unhappy with medical care, in fact it is mainly the third level of care, which takes place in hospitals, that they are worried about.
Government reforms have been proposed at all levels and although their success is not guaranteed, long-term hospital care is in fact probably less of an issue than the media would have us believe.
各位同学在练习的时候也可以像掌柜一样，关注不同信息间的转折关系，研究其中的逻辑关系，让自己之后做题时可以尽量预判出题人的说话走向，提前锁定答案!
2、重复原则
依然是想象一下你们在和他人沟通时是不是自己想突出的事情怕朋友记不住，会翻来覆去地重复好几遍，再进行到下一个话题。同样的碰到较难的题目时，出题人也想用这种方式让考生接收到答案信息!举个例子：
题目问的是“Rainbow Bee Eaters”吃什么，而文本中特意点明了3次：
We're looking at the diet of the bird called the Rainbow Bee Eater. The Bee Eater doesn't care what if eats, as long as they're insects. But the interesting thing about this bird is that we are able to analyse exactly what is eats and that's really helpful if we're looking for introduced insects.
How come? Because insects have their skeletons outside their bodies, so the Bee Eaters digest the meat from the inside.
真题集中还有很多类似的例子，同学们可以自己去挖掘一下。在练习或考试时如果实在因为生词过多没有听出来答案也可以根据这个原则尝试选择出现次数最多那个选项，尽力提高自己的正确率~
3、强调原则
还是想象一下你们在和朋友聊天，是不是说到重点的地方两个人的音调都会不自觉方放大，甚至有明显了抑扬顿挫?
雅思听力出题人为了模仿真实的对话或讲述场景，肯定也会这么做!同学们如果想要更顺利找到关键词句，文本中音量明显增大或者音调有明显起伏的地方都是要重点关注的，可以听一下下面的音频体验一下。 |
