雅思听力剑三、剑四题目难度分析，具体请见下文：

　　剑3篇
　　剑3出版时间较早，因此出题点较现在来看有些不太一样，尤其是现在盗版碟中的录音，语速尤其快，这是由于剑3正版只有磁带的缘故。在题目上剑3的难度并不大。
　　其中test 4 section 3是较难的一篇。这篇是讨论学生所写论文的修改。题型是选择+搭配+填空题。第一个难点出现在第3题。

　　23 Amina was surprised because she
　　A thought it was bad.
　　B wrote it quickly.
　　C found it difficult to do.

　　此题和上一题距离非常近，在做题时极容易由于还在思考上一题的答案而忽略此题的答案。其次此题的文字答案是That's amazing because I really didn't find it a bit easy to write...这边surprise和amaze的同意互换相当有难度。而选项B wrote it quickly中的wrote，非常容易成为干扰选项。

　　Questions 24-26
　　What suggestions does Dr Bryson make? Complete the table as follows.
　　Write A if he says KEEP UNCHANGED
　　Write B if he says REWRITE
　　Write C if he says REMOVE COMPLETELY

　　Chronology 26 .................

　　文字答案：
　　AMINA: What about the chronology ... the list of dates? I wasn’t sure whether I should rewrite those.
　　BRYSON: My advice on that is to take them out. I feel it makes the whole piece appear too simplistic.

　　这边学生询问是不是应该rewrite，而教授的观点是应该take out，因此应该选C，但是很容易受到前面的rewrite影响而错选择了B。

　　Read 27 '................' by Kate Oakwell.

　　Make changes and show to 28 ................ .

　　Do 29 ................ by 29 June.

　　文字答案：
　　BRYSON: And then I think you need to think about ways of representing interview data. Have a look at Sight and Sound by Kate Oakwell.

　　AMINA: Sight and Sound.

　　BRYSON: Then you know I’m going away on holiday next week . . .

　　AMINA: Yes.

　　BRYSON: So when you’ve made the changes I suggest you show the work to your Support Tutor.

　　AMINA: Support Tutor . . . right. . .

　　BRYSON: Then you do the proof reading . . .

　　AMINA: Proof reading . . . uh-huh. When by, do you think?

　　27题的答案是sight and sound，极容易写成site或cite，读音一致但是意思差很远。28和29题词汇有一定难度，尤其是28题不可以漏写Support，这些会带来不少麻烦。
　　总体来说正版剑3语速并不快，考点也比较清晰。但是会出现个别难度较高的词汇，需要重点注意。

剑4篇
　　剑4相对于前面基本剑桥来说无论从出题点、语速来说都有很很大程度的改进，相较于后面的基本剑桥来说，难度并不是特别大，非常适合基础稍微薄弱点的学生做，而其中的选择题尤其多，对于练习选择题也有不少帮助。其中难度较大的是第2篇section4;第4篇section2和section3。

　　4-2-4是介绍集团犯罪，及其现状、成因和社会影响。首先这个部分场景性较难，许多考生对于这个方面感觉比较陌生，导致整篇文章较难听懂。教授讲课的语速虽然不快，但是声音较沉，也会一定程度影响听力。整个10道题题型分布是单选题+填空题+多选题。

　　32 Corporate crime does NOT include
　　A employees stealing from their company.
　　B unintentional crime by employees.
　　C fraud resulting from company policy.

　　文字答案：
　　So crime like theft by employees - things like embezzlement or fraud against one's actual employers are excluded according to this definition.

　　首先题目中的NOT include在听力中是用exclude作为互换的，比较难反应过来;其次这道题的答案是倒置出现的，也就是在exclude这个词的前面;最后由theft和答案中的stealing作互换，也比较头疼。而且后面出现的生词embezzlement和fraud也会影响听力，更加糟糕的是错误答案C中出现了fraud这个词语，很容易会导致选错。

　　35和36题答案为specialist knowledge和unaware，这两个词语较难写，尤其是第二个很容易听成 'underwear' 这个读音很像但是意思完全错误的词语。
　　4-4-2是一个旅行社的电话录音，介绍旅行路线、服务质量以及费用问题。虽然这篇仅仅只是section2，但是难度高于整本书的其他部分。题目是一半的选择题+一半的填空题。

　　12. Travelite currently offer walking holidays
　　A. only in Western Europe
　　B. all over Europe.
　　C. outside Europe.

　　13. The walks offered by Travelite
　　A. cater for a range of walking abilities.
　　B. are planned by guides from the local area.
　　C. are for people with good fitness levels.

　　14. On Travelite holidays, people holidaying alone pay
　　A. the same as other clients.
　　B. only a little more than other clients.
　　C. extra only if they stay in a large room.

　　15. Entertainment is provided
　　A. when guests request it.
　　B. most nights.
　　C. every night.

　　文字答案：
　　We offer guided working tours ... in twelve different centres throughout the whole of Western Europe. ... All are planned in detail by our highly trained guides, who all work in a variety of different Travelite locations, ... we offer three separate works catering for all skills and fitness levels. ... we guarantee that no single client will pay more, even when only double rooms are available for them. ... Entertainment is laid on nearly every night...

　　这边的答案分别为A, A, A, B，但是第12题由于whole的影响，容易错选B;第13题由于前面波浪线的这句话而选择B，也可能由于听到了fitness level而错选C，而答案A是由于a range of和all的同意互换产生的;第14题可能由于后面的double room而错选C;第15题由于every前面的nearly读的很轻，导致错选C。

　　第17题的答案是nearest station，由于爆破和吞音的影响，导致会听成near或者nearer而造成失分。整体上来看，剑4选择题难度较大，陷进较多，语速较后面基本剑桥略慢，但非常清晰。很适合作为打基础之用。

　　以上就为大家整理的剑桥雅思最难的Section之剑三、剑四，非常实用，最后预祝大家在雅思考试中取得好成绩！
