9月7日七点就醒了,虽然八点才上课。爬起来查分,一看,出来了!好紧张。点开看,112,瞬间释然、无比开心。一开始我给自己的定位是正常105+,如果110+最好。没想到达到了,很开心。下面说下自己的备考经验,希望能够对后人有所帮助啊。也帮自己赞一下RP。大家一起加油!!先说自己的背景:现大三,英语底子还行吧,大二上考1010G,然后遇到该死的重考——转考1106G,成绩1400+,作文4.0。总之G前前后后加在一起有一年多,中间有很多没在准备,认真全力准备的也就考前一个月吧。然后报827托福。背景如此。
先说阅读:考过G的阅读能力应该还行吧。我没有单独练什么,主要就是随着做模考的时候做,模考具体的最后会讲。阅读没啥好说的,我觉得这个就那样,多读,语感问题嘛。其实抓住TPO啥的出题的思路就Okay了。我阅读速度还行,一般三篇阅读做完时间会多出15min的样子,所以比较轻松,也不会时间很紧。考试时,加考阅读,经典加试,电报+鸟鸣。最后29,也差不多。读认真一点就好了! 听力部分:听力,本来准备听下神马泛听材料的,最后没有弄,自己懒!听力的准备也就是跟着做模考的时候做的。听力一定要边听边做笔记,记笔记可能用不到,你都能记下来,但是记笔记防止自己不会睡着,特别像我这样每天都各种困的人。一定不能睡着,全神贯注地听!!考试时没有加试,速度正常,也比较清晰。有一个Speech没有听得很懂,但是居然最后还是30,估计自己应该有错,我模考也从没做过全对,所以应该是ETS会看所有考生的情况来给分,不是按错几题扣分的。 口语部分:哥这个口语,大家还是随便看看吧,23我也觉得挺挫的,貌似口语没有25分这一档,所以好像很容易得24分,我也觉得自己拿个24就可以了,总之这样了,我也没办法,总分挺高的也就不在乎了嘛。口语是小马的机经预测中了的,自己准备的时候,小马的预测自己是每道题都写下来了说了一遍,最后所有的1、2题又练了一下。最后考试的时候,1、2题是good,然后3、4和5、6题都是fair,囧死了,我4、6题顿了好久呢,无语了,太紧张了,脑子空白了。大家口语一定一定一定一定一定一定一定要多多练习啊,不要让舌头打结,考场上看着时间一秒一秒跳过去,很紧张的,要淡定,多练,熟练了才不会出问题!口语一定加油!每天都要练习,坚持就是胜利! 最后是作文:估计大家都想看看作文吧。我好好写写。大家知道我的AW是4.0,在中国还算不错的分了吧。我也不敢说自己作文好,只是说可能语感不错吧、句子比较对ETS的胃口吧。我托福的作文准备几乎可以忽略,写了大概独立、综合各两篇,然后就懒得写了。有G的底子(虽然我的AW是2010年8月13日考的,很久了;不过还是写一写就有感觉了)。AW准备的时候,看了一些北美范文啥的,但是千万千万千万不要抄别人的句子和模板,一定要自己写。自己多写几次,形成自己的写作套路,你自己怎么开头引入话题,怎么立分论点,怎么分段,怎么展开论述或者举例,怎么总结,一定要有自己的写作套路!自己可以写一写自己开头的段落,常用的例子也动手写一写。多熟悉多写,一定要形成自己的写作套路,这样写起来很快的!另外备考的技巧,你可以自己写一写写作中很常用的词组或者表达的替换,比如我下面举出来了几个: The (sheer) bulk of——the majority of,大部分,修饰可数、不可数都可以; Established——widely accepted,广泛认同; Superficial——inconsiderate等词,肤浅的,形容实际的、抽象的都可以; Whereas——while,而,表示对比; Correspondingly——therefore,then,与之相应的;自己要用熟,当然,保证正确使用,这些还是挺有用的。大家多总结多用吧。不要总是用太基本的词汇和搭配吧,适当高级一点。但是这个不要太过关注,是锦上添花的问题。 后面附的是两篇我写的文章,还算较为典型吧,大家作为参考。谢谢! 模考软件:OG、Delta、Kaplan难度都不太高,可以初期练一练;Barron、高分120的难度和真题相近一些,但是出题的思路和ETS有所不同,所以可能有些人不适应这种思路会觉得很难。 总之,模考软件,以熟悉题型为主。重点还是放在TPO吧。TPO1-17的软件模考挺好的,也有下载的地方,很方便,其他的用PPS的就可以。不一定要做完,适度就好,主要是找感觉!! TPO、Barron、高分120下载地址:打开 愿大家都可以取得好成绩!!! It is the responsibility of the government to provide health care to everyoneliving in that country. Whisking the dust of the surface and opening the scroll of history,we can easily find out that the government who doesn't care about the lives ofthe human beings living in the country will certainly never last too long. Andtherefore, a good government should pay much attention to the living conditionof everyone in the country. However, the financial situations vary amongdifferent countries, and correspondingly there will be fierce debates about thecare system, such as health care-whether the government should provide healthcare to everyone in the country. From my point of view, I think the writer'sassertion is fundamentally correct, and it is the responsibility of thegovernment to provide health care to everyone. First of all, the health care provides the basic care system for thehuman beings and it shows the basic humanity in the government, which I think issignificant especially for a government. When governing the country, only thiskind of humanity can make the people be willing to be under the charge of thegovernment. And as we know, the wars led by the people in the country aremostly caused by the unfair situation, which teaches us the importance ofhumanity. Therefore, the health care system can be an important foundation ofthe government. So in this degree, it’s really of great significance for thegovernment to provide the health care to everyone living in that country. On top of that, the health care can make the people pay moreattention to their health, which is the more serious problem for a human being.Health is the base of the body, and if your citizens are unhealthy physicallyor mentally, you could never expect them to be happy in the country. Andwithout happiness, people may live with anger or wars but no harmony, which isthe worst thing for a government. And no harmony, no progress. In this aspect,providing the health care to the citizens in the country can indirectlycontribute to the progress and improvements which are mostly led by peoplethemselves. In a word, it is worthy of doing that. However, providing the health care for everyone doesn’t suit everycountry in the world. As I said above, the financial situations vary amongdifferent countries, and as for some poor countries, providing the health careto everyone may be more a curse than a blessing. The money that government usesto provide the health care comes from taxes, and requiring them to providehealth care to people means the government will have to get more taxes from thecitizens, which is not suitable for poor countries. So as for these countries,health care to everyone is unavailable and impractical.Despite the fact that poor countries may have no chance to providethe health care to everyone in the country, for most of the countries in theworld, the government should do so, in order to ensure the health care forcitizens, which will be a total blessing and benefit for them. Also such asystem will be beneficial to the government itself. It’s a win-win situation! FromIntegrated Writing of TPO-08 Before putting many doubts towards the accuracyof the memoir of Chevalier de Seingalt as is mentioned in the reading material,the professor gives us a careful consideration about the assertion in thearticle. And it's easy to find out that there're many fallacies in the article,which make the assertion unjustifiable. The professor mainly shows her argumentin the following three aspects.First of all, the article says that Chevalierborrowed considerable sums of money from a Swiss merchant, and therefore hecould not be rich. However, the professor mentioned that now that he spent alot of money on party and gambling, it was easy for him to run out of money.And when he ran out of money, the money needed sailing to Switzerland, and as aconsequence, he might borrow some money when he was waiting. The fact that hewas rich cannot be denied by the money he borrowed. Therefore, in this degree,the doubt in the article is illogic and unsubstantiated.Furthermore, the passage mentions that he couldnot remember clearly and accurately about the conversation with Voltairebecause of the long time between the conversation and the writing of memoir.However, he could write down everything he remembered in a note, and he couldrefer to the note when writing the memoir. And such a possibility makes theconclusion in the article unbelievable to us.The last but not the least, the passage saysthat he escaped from the jail with the help and bribe of his friends, but notby the way he mentioned in the memoir. Nevertheless, the professor argues thatthere were many other gays in the jail who had more powerful friends thanChevalier did, but only he escaped. Also, the jail repaired the ceiling afterhis escape, and that may be an evidence of his escape by the way of ** ahole. In a word, the statement in the article is not logic enough. According to the professor, the readingpassage makes several fallacies with unsubstantiated evidences and illogicconclusion. And the professor believes that the memoir of Chevalier is prettyaccurate.
