雅思聽力難題解析：搭配題
搭配題是選擇題的一種變形。在雅思聽力中，搭配題所占的比例并不大，也不是每一次考試都考到，但是考的時候一定是連續的4題以上，最多的是連續7題。
一、重要性
搭配題是選擇題的一種變形。在雅思聽力中，搭配題所占的比例并不大，也不是每一次考試都考到，但是考的時候一定是連續的4題以上，最多的是連續7題。曾經在2010年1月9日的考試中有2個section都考到了這種題型，也就是一共有11題。總的來看搭配題所占比例為6.4%，也就是平均考2.5題左右。這種題型是希望拿高分的同學必不可少的一關。
二、難點及應對
閱讀速度
既然搭配題是選擇題的一種變題，第一個難點自然和選擇題類似。對于如何在有限的考試時間看明白大量的信息，是所有考生在考雅思聽力所必須面臨的一道難關。

Questions 11-16
What change has been made to each part of the theatre?
Choose SIX answers from the box and write the correct letter, A-G, next to questions 11-16.
RIVENDEN CITY THEATRE
Part of the theatre
11 box office ..
12 shop ..
13 ordinary seats ..
14 seats for wheelchair users ..
15 lifts ..
16 dressing rooms ..
通過這道題，我們發現一共6道搭配題，總共需要閱讀字數不過才30多個字，許多人就會有疑問了，這些怎么可能看不完呢?這里我們要注意：對于搭配題的最大難度不是在能不能看完這些信息，而是如何能夠找到這些信息的關鍵點，以及內部聯系。因此，建議考生在審題的時候一定要仔細閱讀選項，并且如果可能的話將選項進行適度的解釋，也就是在選項旁標注中文或者符號，這個步驟我稱之為：譯。如這邊選項中的7個選項分別為：2倍、分開的入口、數字減少、空間擴大、替換、加固、臨時關門。

Questions 17-20
What does the speaker say about the following items?
Write the correct letter, A, B or C, next to questions 17-20.
17 barbecues ..
18 toys ..
19 cool boxes ..
20 mops and buckets ..
此題選項較少，因此對于閱讀速度要求并不是很高，但是分析清楚選項，我們會發現三個選項的重點為：在帳篷內、在中間、按要求。
語速
搭配題的語速往往較快，并且每題的答案出現的位置較近，因此很有可能在聽力的過程中聽漏信息。醒考生在平時的練習中應該刻意去練習對于語速較快的內容的把握。值得我們注意的是在搭配題中，題干信息往往并不是很多，并且會在聽力材料中讀出來。
如劍7 Test 1 Section 2的文字答案：
When it comes to our tents, these are equipped to the highest standard. We really do think of every essential detail. From an oven and cooking rings fuelled by bottled gas, to mirrors in the bedroom areas. If you dont want to cook indoors, you can borrow a barbecue if you ask in advance for one to be made available, and theres even a picnic blanket to sit on outside your tent. Inside, a box of games and toys can be found, and childrens tents can be hired if required. All tents have a fridge, and if you want to spend the day on the beach, for example, ask for a specially designed PS Camping cool box, which will keep your food and drinks chilled. There are excellent washing facilities at all our sites, with washing machines and clothes lines in the central areas, along with mops and buckets in case your tent needs cleaning during your stay. All sites have a cafe and/or a shop for those whod rather eat in than dine at a local restaurant.
這里每一個答案之間的間隔很小，在聽力過程中很有可能會聽漏而導致失分。這邊需要把握住的就是題干信息，通過這題我們可以很清楚的發現，題干信息基本上都是名詞的內容，而在文字答案中這些信息并沒有任何的變動。這步我稱之為：定。
同義詞互換
當能夠合理的定位到信息點后，同義詞互換就是我們最終需要去找到的信息。
如劍6 Test 1 Section 2 13-15的文字答案：
... Yes, weve increased the leg-room between the rows. This means that there are now fewer seats but weve sure audience will be much happier. And weve installed air conditioning, so it wont get so hot and stuffy. We already ha a few seats which were suitable for wheelchair users, and now there are twice as many, which we hop will meet demand. Something else that will benefit audiences is the new lifts. The two we used to have were very small and slow. Theyve now gone, and weve got much more efficient ones. ...
和上面一篇一樣這邊的幾個定位詞seats, wheelchair和lift不難找到。通過這幾個詞語我們也能順理成章的找到答案詞語fewer, twice, gone，通過同義詞互換答案也很快出來了，分別是數字減少C，2倍A和替換E。
我們再看到一個例子：
劍5 Test 4 Section 4
Questions 37-40
Which section of the university will help postgraduate students with their dissertations in the following ways?
A the postgraduates own department or tutor
B library staff
C another section of the university
Write the correct letter, A, B or C, next to questions 37-40.
37 training in specialized computer programs ..
38 advising on bibliography presentation ..
39 checking the draft of the dissertation ..
40 providing language support ..
Tapescripts
Some of you may be interested to know that the library is offering specialised training sessions on writing a dissertation. Obviously this is not relevant to those of you who are undergraduates; it is just for postgraduates. Your department will discuss the planning stage of the dissertation - i.e. what youre going to do - with you and we will focus on the structure of it. However, the training will also include some time on the computers. I realise most of you know how to organise files but we can show you the different ways to run data programmes. Your tutors will tell you at the outset how to set out the chapters they require but you will need to ask them how they would like you to organise the bibliography because it varies depending on your subject area. When youve got something together the trainer here will took through the draft version for you to see if its OK. And, one final point, for those of you who have registered from abroad, we can offer individual sessions on dissertations if you feel you need them. If you require language lessons then they are available from the International Centre next to the Law Department.
這個題目審題并不是很困難，首先3個選項譯為：導師，圖書館員工和其他。4道題的定位點并不難，但是由于文中將library staff同義轉換為trainer/training，而且語速也非常快，導致在聽到此題的時候，很難把握信息。最終只好放棄。
總的來說，搭配題在考試里面算是比較難的一種類型，由于語速以及陷阱比較隱蔽，導致丟分很多。因此，議考生在做這種題目的時候要做好譯，定和換，做對這些難題也不是不可能。
