說起雅思聽力出現的條件詞,先說一句西方的諺語：There is no free lunch in the world. 世界上沒有免費的午餐。很多語句的`前後都會伴隨著一些條件詞：
Only if, Unless, Except for , As long as, Provided that, On condition that
如果聽題時候分神了,烤鴨會死得很慘！
例一：只有二三年級生才能使用MAC電腦嗎？
The third computer network that is the Macintosh computer network is reserved for the second and third year students to use only, unless you are the first year students of the Graphic Design course, who require higher quality of the output of your work. 不是,因為後面有個unless部分。
例二：是否任何事情都可以聯絡你？
Q: May I put you into our mailing list?
A: Well, Id prefer not, except for the information about the promotion you mentioned just now. 只有一個條件可以,就是except for後面的情況（別的概不接受）。
例三：你覺得多長時間播一次廣告可以接受呢？
Q: How long will it be tolerate to have adverts?
A: Well, Id say every quarter of an hour, as long as they dont last for 10 minutes each time.
答案絕對不是10分鐘,我的課上這個題是重點題也是難題！很多考生會選錯,純粹是因為考生只聽到10分鐘這個點太清楚了,別的都很模糊,而且as long as 的條件詞特別提醒了考生後面的錯誤選項。
例四：熱帶雨林危險嗎？
Theres no need to be nervous of the rainforest, provided that you treat it with respect and common sense. Most of the animals and wildlife are gentle and harmless.
不要擔心進入熱帶雨林會遇到危險,只要你善待自然,就可以和平共處
通過上面例子可以看出,前後分句存在條件關係,各位烤鴨聽題要前後連貫,切忌斷章取義。
