说到雅思听力中的时态问题，同学们可能会“望而生畏”。可能在雅思听力考试中都没有注意到时态的问题。但是掌握时态是必不可少的，因为还是有的考生因为时态而丢分。不过大家也不用太过担心，在雅思听力当中的时态考点，只考3种，也就是过去，现在，将来3种时态。

　　下面小编要和大家分享的是雅思听力中的三种关键时态，掌握这三种时态，雅思听力时就再也不用担心这个时态会成为绊脚石啦~

　　下面举两个例子：

　　例1：剑桥真题8，test3, section 1的第9-10题。

　　Which TWO facilities in the district of Devon Close are open to the public at the moment?

　　A.museum

　　B.concert hall

　　C.cinema

　　D.sports centre

　　E.swimming pool

　　当看到这个题干的时候，大家就应该注意到，题目的考点即时态，关键词"at the moment"也就是选择与"现在"相对应的选项。

　　录音原文如下：

　　Man： Why's that part of town so popular?

　　Woman: Well, there's a big scheme to improve the district, and it'll soon have the best facilities for miles around.

　　Man: What sort of thing?

　　Woman: There is a big sports center under construction, which will be very impressive when it's finished. In fact the swimming pool's already opened ahead of schedule, and it's attracting a lot of people.

　　Man: What about cinemas: are there are any in the area?

　　Woman: The only one closed down last year, and it's now in the process of being converted into a film museum. The local people are trying to get a new cinema added to the scheme..

　　Man: I think I hear something about a plan to replace the existing concert hall with a larger one.

　　Woman: Ah, that's due to start next year.

　　加粗部分就是相关的时间考点词，如果注意到考点词，大家可以很容易地把"过去有的"和"将来会有"的选项排除，选择"现在已有"的B,E选项。

　　例2：剑桥真题8， Test 2, section 3, Question 21

　　Where in Australia have Asian honey bees been found in the past?

　　A. Queensland

　　B. New South Wales

　　C. Severl states

　　观察题干，大家可以发现时态考点词"in the past"，即所选答案应该是对应"过去有的"。

　　录音原文：

　　Anyway, my current research involves trying to find a particular type of bee, the Asian Honey Bee, and finding out whether there are any of them around in various states of Australia. We discovered a few of them in Queensland once and eradicated them. Now, we're pretty keen to make sure that there aren't any more getting in, particularly to New South Wales and other states.

　　注意听"once"和 "Now" 这两个信号词，就很容易把正确答案"Queensland"，即A选项听出来。 把混淆信息"New South Wales and other states"即 B,C选项排除

　　通过这个两个例子，大家也应该注意到，不论是第一部分还是第三部分，不论生活场景还是学术场景，时态都作为一重要考点。而区分时态，不需要太过纠结于动词变化上的一些细节，比如到底是 did, 还是 had done, 还是has done。因为一个具体动词的词尾变化，或者had, has 这样的助动词，在念的过程都可能弱化，导致听不到答案。大家更应该注意的是将中英文融会贯通，主动去听像我们中文表达中的一些表示时间的状语，比如now, past, future, last, next等，和描述事物存在性的形容词，比如 used, existing等。希望大家在做题的时候能多多积累整理，攻克雅思听力中的时态关!

　　最后我们来总结一下雅思听力考试中常见的时间时态词：

　　过去的时间词：original/originally / previous/ previously / former/ initially/ first / last / used to do / ago/ before / did /past

　　现在的时间词：current/currently/ at present/ at the moment / now/ recently / have already done

　　将来的时间词：future/ be about to do/ be going to do / next / be considering / plan to do / intend to do / be thinking of / soon /

　　希望大家在备考雅思听力时候能多多积累整理，早日攻克雅思听力时态关。
