Section 3 Automation and the Future of Work
第 21 - 22 题:多选题 (Opinions about Luddites)
- 题干关键词 (
Keywords):Luddites(定位词),opinions
- 原文同义替换 (Paraphrasing):
- Option A (ineffective) ->
didn’t achieve anything - Option E (understandable) ->
I can see why... - Trap (Option C/D) -> 原文提到 destroyed machines (facts),但没说他们是对的 (right) 或受到不公批评。
- Option A (ineffective) ->
- 原文定位 (Evidence):
- Sentence - 5: “Young woman: Yes, and ultimately, they didn’t achieve anything. And anyway, industrialisation created more jobs than it destroyed.”
- Sentence - 6: “Young man: Yes, that’s true – but it probably didn’t seem a positive thing at the time. I can see why the Luddites felt so threatened.”
- 解析 & 避坑指南:
- A 选项对应:女生说的
didn’t achieve anything直接对应ineffective(无效的)。 - E 选项对应:男生用
I can see why...(我能理解为什么…)表达了共情,对应understandable。 - 提分建议:注意听评价性形容词或短语。不要只听 “machine” 或 “destroy” 这种实词,要听
didn't achieve(负面结果) 和can see why(态度)。
- A 选项对应:女生说的
第 23 - 24 题:多选题 (Predictions doubtful about)
- 题干关键词 (
Keywords):doubtful about(关键限定词!必须选学生质疑的观点),predictions
- 原文同义替换 (Paraphrasing):
- Option D (Working hours will be shorter) ->
more leisure time(shorter hours) ->I can’t see how...(doubtful) - Option B (Unemployment will fall) ->
lower unemployment->I’m not so sure about that(doubtful)
- Option D (Working hours will be shorter) ->
- 原文定位 (Evidence):
- Sentence - 9: “Young man: Bit too optimistic, don’t you think? For example, I can’t see how people are about to have more leisure time, when all the evidence shows people are spending longer than ever at work.”
- Sentence - 10: “Young woman: No – that’s true. And what about lower unemployment? I’m not so sure about that.”
- 解析 & 避坑指南:
- D 选项对应:男生用
I can’t see how表达强烈的质疑,反驳了more leisure time(即 shorter working hours),证据是人们工作longer than ever。 - B 选项对应:女生提到
lower unemployment后紧跟I’m not so sure about that,直接命中doubtful。 - 丢分痛点:很多同学听到了关键词
leisure time或unemployment就选了,却忽略了前面的否定词can't see和not so sure。听力不仅要听“有什么”,更要听“是不是”!
- D 选项对应:男生用
第 25 题:匹配题 (Accountants)
- 题干关键词 (
Keywords):Accountants
- 原文同义替换 (Paraphrasing):
Option G (Both employment and productivity have risen)->more of them(employment risen) +far more efficient(productivity risen)
- 原文定位 (Evidence):
- Sentence - 15: “Young man: Yeah, incredible. Like accountants. You might think all the technological innovations would have put them out of a job, but in fact there are more of them than ever. They’re still really in demand and have become far more efficient.”
- 解析 & 避坑指南:
- 逻辑转折:原文先给了干扰
put them out of a job(失业),马上用but in fact转折。 - 双重对应:
more of them对应 G 选项的employment;efficient对应productivity。缺一不可。
- 逻辑转折:原文先给了干扰
第 26 题:匹配题 (Hairdressers)
- 题干关键词 (
Keywords):Hairdressers
- 原文同义替换 (Paraphrasing):
Option E (Higher disposable income has led to a huge increase in jobs)->earning power has gone up(Higher disposable income) +demand... gone up so much(huge increase)
- 原文定位 (Evidence):
- Sentence - 17: “Young man: I know. I’d never have thought that demand for hairdressing would have gone up so much in the last hundred years…”
- Sentence - 18: “Young woman: Yeah because people’s earning power has gone up so they can afford to spend more on personal services like that.”
- 解析 & 避坑指南:
- 因果关系:选项 E 包含因果逻辑(lead to),原文
because引导原因earning power has gone up。 - 词汇积累:
earning power=disposable income(可支配收入),这是雅思常见的高频替换。
- 因果关系:选项 E 包含因果逻辑(lead to),原文
第 27 题:匹配题 (Administrative staff)
- 题干关键词 (
Keywords):Administrative staff
- 原文同义替换 (Paraphrasing):
Option B (Their role has become more interesting)->boring compared to these days(implying today is interesting) +given much more responsibility
- 原文定位 (Evidence):
- Sentence - 21: “The kind of work that administrative staff do has changed enormously, thanks to technology. Even 20 years ago there were secretaries doing dictation and typing.”
- Sentence - 22: “Young man: Yes. Really boring compared to these days, when they’re given much more responsibility and higher status.”
- 解析 & 避坑指南:
- 反向逻辑:原文说过去
Really boring,对比these days,暗示现在这就变得more interesting。这种“过去 vs 现在”的对比是 Section 3 的拿手好戏。
- 反向逻辑:原文说过去
第 28 题:匹配题 (Agricultural workers)
- 题干关键词 (
Keywords):Agricultural workers
- 原文同义替换 (Paraphrasing):
Option C (The number of people... has fallen dramatically)->roughly 25%…Now it’s less than 0.2%
- 原文定位 (Evidence):
- Sentence - 24: “But the 1871 census showed that roughly 25% of the population worked on the land.”
- Sentence - 25: “Young man: Yeah, I’d have assumed it would be more than 50%. Now it’s less than 0.2%.”
- 解析 & 避坑指南:
- 数字敏感度:从 25% 跌到 0.2%,这就是
fallen dramatically。 - 干扰排除:不要听到 50% 就觉得是增加,那只是男生原本的假设(assumed),不是事实。
- 数字敏感度:从 25% 跌到 0.2%,这就是
第 29 题:匹配题 (Care workers)
- 题干关键词 (
Keywords):Care workers
- 原文同义替换 (Paraphrasing):
Option F (significant rise in demand)->see huge growth
- 原文定位 (Evidence):
- Sentence - 27: “Young man: They barely existed in the 19th century as people’s lifespan was so much shorter. But now of course this sector will see huge growth.”
- 解析 & 避坑指南:
huge growth直接对应significant rise。这题比较直接,关键是抓准定位词Care workers。
第 30 题:匹配题 (Bank clerks)
- 题干关键词 (
Keywords):Bank clerks
- 原文同义替换 (Paraphrasing):
Option A (likely to be at risk)->redundant/future looks quite bleak
- 原文定位 (Evidence):
- Sentence - 28: “Young woman: Yeah – and it’s hard enough to meet current demand. The future looks quite bleak for bank clerks. They’ve been in decline since ATMs were introduced in the eighties.”
- Sentence - 29: “Young man: And technology will certainly make most of the jobs they do now redundant, I think.。”
- 解析 & 避坑指南:
- 核心词汇:
redundant(多余的/被裁员的)是职场类雅思听力的必考词,直接对应at risk。 - 情感色彩:
bleak(凄凉的/暗淡的)也是强烈的负面信号。
- 核心词汇:
Sector 与 Department 的宏观与微观差异
在雅思考试中,区分词汇的“颗粒度”是达到高分段的关键。这两个词虽然都翻译为“部门”,但应用语境完全不同。
| 维度 | Department |
Sector |
|---|---|---|
| 范畴 | 微观:机构、公司内部的职能部门 | 宏观:社会、经济、产业的巨大领域 |
| 示例 | HR department (人事部) |
Private sector (私营领域) |
| 类比 | 像代码中的一个 Module |
像整个 Industry 架构 |
- 助记小技巧:把
sector想象成一个巨大的圆盘(扇区),它切分的是整个国家或经济的蛋糕。 - 实际应用/例句:Anthropic is a leading company in the AI
sector.
雅思听力高频拼写核心词:Seminar 与 Administrative
听力 4.5 分提升至 7分的必经之路是攻克长难词拼写。这两个词是 Section 1 & 3 的高频考点。
Seminar(研讨会):- 引导提示:它是大学里的小组讨论,注意结尾是
-ar而不是-er。 - 解析:
Semi(一半) +nar(叙述),一半人讲,一半人听,大家一起讨论。
- 引导提示:它是大学里的小组讨论,注意结尾是
Administrative(行政的):- 解析:来自
admin。 - 助记法:拆分为
Ad+mini(小) +strative。处理琐碎的小事就是行政工作。
- 解析:来自
- 实际应用/例句:The students are required to attend a
seminarto discussadministrativechanges.
词汇的深度理解:Disposable 与 Lifespan
这两个词在雅思写作 Task 2 的环保和经济话题中非常万金油。
Disposable(可支配的/一次性的):- 多重语义:在环保中指
disposable plastic(一次性塑料);在经济中指disposable income(扣除税费后真正能自由支配的钱)。
- 多重语义:在环保中指
Lifespan(寿命/持续时间):- 对比类比:与
Life cycle不同,Lifespan侧重时间的“长短”,而Life cycle侧重生命或产品的“阶段”。
- 对比类比:与
- 实际应用/例句:With more
disposableincome, people tend to buy products with a shorterlifespan.
雅思写作高阶句式:See 或 Witness 的见证者视角
为了达到写作 7分,需要摆脱简单的 There be 句型,采用更地道的学术表达。
- 逻辑转换:将“时间”或“领域”拟人化,作为“见证者”。
- 句式模板:
Subject(时间/行业) +will see/witnessed+a/an+adjective+increase/change. - 实际应用/例句:The next decade
will seea massive increase inautomationwithin the medicalsector.
语法陷阱排查:不可数名词 Evidence 与 Information
这是听力 4.5 分最容易丢分的地方——单复数和谓语一致性。
- 知识解析:
Evidence(证据)、Information(信息)、Advice(建议) 在英语中是绝对不可数的。 - 对比测试:
- 错误:All the evidences show…
- 正确:All the
evidenceshows… (注意谓语动词加 s)
- 实际应用/例句:A
pieceofevidencesuggests thatautomationmightputsome peopleout of a job.
逻辑解析:More than ever 与 For a change
理解长难句中的逻辑断句。
More [them] than ever:- 解析:断句在中间。意为“他们(的人数)比以往任何时候都多”。
For a change:- 解析:意为“换个口味”、“难得地”。修饰整个句子的状态,表示与平时不同的改变。
- 实际应用/例句:The discussion was
optimisticfor a change, as there aremorejobsthan everin the techsector.
词汇家族助记:从 Industry 到 Industrialisation
雅思阅读的长难词通常是通过“套娃”后缀构成的。
| 词性 | 单词 | 含义 |
|---|---|---|
| 名词 (基础) | Industry |
工业 / 行业 |
| 形容词 | Industrial |
工业的 |
| 动词 | Industrialise |
使工业化 |
| 名词 (过程) | Industrialisation |
工业化进程 |
| 类似变化 | Automation |
Automate (动词:使自动化) |
- 实际应用/例句:The
industrialisationof this region was driven by advancedautomation.
Anki 答题卡
1 | ❓ 部门在雅思表达中应该使用department还是sector? department指机构、公司内部的职能部门,sector指社会或经济的大领域、行业板块。规范解析:公司内部架构如HR、开发部用department,宏观经济领域如AI行业、私营经济用sector。易错提示:想象sector是把整个经济蛋糕切开的一个扇区。 |
