Review

(1) 撇除技術性錯誤,失分的地方在地圖題以及Section 3 的多選題

(2) 要練習速記!!!邊聽廣播邊抄錄重點

(3) IELTS考的重點大多都是同義詞替換跟paraphrase,因此要練習如果看到一個單字,要去留意這個單字的同義詞有哪些,要如何替換。

(4) [多選]題目:Which TWO characteristics were shared by the subjects of Joanna’s psychology study?

They had all made music recordings / They had all toured internationally

線索:…They were all very highly regarded in the music world and they’d done quite extensive tours in different continents, and quite a few had won prizes and competitions as well.

線索:…between 25 and 29 — the mean was 27.8. I wasn’t specifically looking for artists who’d produced recordings, but this is something that’s just taken for granted these days, and they all had.

(5) [多選]題目:Which TWO points does Joanna make about her use of telephone interviews?

It meant rich data could be collected / It allowed the involvement of top performers

線索:…I’d been worried about the quality, but it worked out all right. I managed at least a 30-minute interview with each subject, sometimes longer.

線索:I’d thought it might(more stressful)…it was all quite informal though and in fact they seemed very keen to talk. And I don’t think using the phone meant I got less rich data, rather the opposite in fact.

(6) [多選]題目:Which TWO topics did Joanna originally intend to investigate in her research?

audience reactions to the dress of performers / links between musical instrument and dress choice

線索:…When I started I was more interested in trying to investigate the impact of what was worn on those listening, and also whether someone like a violinist might adopt a different style of clothing from, say, someone playing the flute or the trumpet.

(7) [單選]題目:Mike Frost’s article suggests that in popular music, women’s dress is affected by…

their wish to be taken seriously

線索:…a lot of female singers and musicians in popular music tend to dress down in performances, and wear less femine clothes, like jeans instead of skirts, and he suggests this is because otherwise they’d just be discounted as trivial.

(8) [單選]題目:What did Joanna’s subjects say about the audience at a performance?

The musicians’ choice of clothing is linked to respect for the audience.

線索:…They believed the audience had certain expectations and it was up to them as performers to fulfill these expectations, to show a kind of esteem…

(9) [單選]題目:According to the speakers, musicians could learn from sports scientists about…

the way clothing may protect against physical injury

線索:Musicians are quite vulnerable physically…,so I’d imagine some features of sports clothing could safeguard the players from the potentially dangerous effects of this sort of thing…
