托福备考好习惯养成攻略

 

良好的习惯是成功的一半 托福备考好习惯养成攻略

托福备考好习惯一 背单词

单词,是个老生常谈的问题, 不管是托福还是其他英语考试,都要背单词!辣么,大家都知道托福考试要背单词,但大家想过为什么单词对于托福考试很重要吗?

其实,在托福的听力和阅读考试当中,并不需要大家掌握全部的单词。理论上,6000词汇量可以让大家拿到阅读、听力考试的满分。但更高的词汇量,意味着更高的容错率。词汇量可以让我们无需使用各式各样的技巧去把信息补充完成。

而背单词,是要远比学习这些技巧更简单的。

在备考初期,大家要尽快提升你的被动单词量(也就是看到能大体认识的单词量)。

选择一款你用的比较顺手的App,测一下你的单词量,设置一个目标(比如8000词汇量),集中精力和时间(最好在2星期内),快速完成。

托福备考好习惯二 学语法

1.语法为什么重要?

语法直接决定了大家在阅读考试当中阅读长难句的速度和准确度,也直接决定了大家在写作当中是否能写出正确的句子。

很多老师让大家背的句型,其实其背后的原理都是来自于基础语法。

背1000个句型,不如吃透一本语法书。这是我的阅读、写作学生结课之后共同的感慨。

2.你该如何学习语法?

给大家一个小Tip:选一本口碑良好的语法书,先做每章的课后习题。如果感觉很多题都不会做,那么这一章就是你的薄弱环节。回到语法书中,试着把例句的中文翻译成英文。

如果你在翻译的过程当中,不是因为词汇问题翻译不出来,那么就说明你没有掌握这部分的语法,这个时候你就要看书学习了。

托福备考好习惯三 做泛读

选择一些不难的,你感兴趣的材料,当做是业余爱好来读。这对你的阅读和写作也是相当有帮助的。

比如,喜欢稀奇古怪的事情,与它们背后的道理,就可以听Podcast中的“魔鬼经济学”,并找来相关的文字、书籍进行阅读。

或者喜欢篮球的,就可以买来“毒舌”比尔西蒙斯的原版的”篮史通贱”,一天之内啃完700页书。

Quora,Reddit也都是很好的学习资料来源。

泛读对于你的意义是什么呢?

对于阅读和听力来说,泛读是积累意群、语块的很好的来源。

这些通用的意群和语块,你在reading passage和lecture、conversation里面都会接触到。

对于写作和口语的备考,大量的阅读会帮你形成对于文字的感觉。这种积累是背模板、背句型无法替代的。

背单词、学语法、做泛读是托福备考中必须养成的三个好习惯,因为词汇语法和泛读是需要利用备考中的琐碎时间的,如果大家能够利用好琐碎时间学好这三个方面,肯定可以极大提升备考的效果。

托福写作解析:3类实用托福写作高分句型

1、熟知但是却不爱用的there be句型

说熟知是绝大部分同学或多或少写过,说不爱用,就得提提老给考生使绊的“Chinglish思维方式”。Therebe的句型在写作中极容易犯错,比如:明天将会有很多重大新闻。有的考生想都不想地就写成:Tomorrow will have many significant news. 这样的句子就属于较严重的语法错误,tomorrow能发出have这个动作吗?肯定是不能的,所以主语并不是tomorrow。这里很明显没有可以发出“有“这个动作的主语,所以正确答案应该是:There will be many significant news tomorrow. tomorrow 是典型的时间状语,所以以后在there be的写作中要注意可能出现的状语和主语的混淆错误。

2、动名词做主语

动词一般不可以在句首做主语,但是如果把动词加上ing,它就会变成“动名词“,那么这个主语就“名正言顺”了。语法书中定义:“动名词,即是兼有名词和动词特征的非限定性动词,可以做主语、定语、表语和宾语等。”

所以上面的二个句子这样表达最合适:

(1). 读书是一门艺术:Reading is an art.

(2). 贩卖毒品是犯法的:Selling drugs is illegal.

可以发现,动名词做主语的句子所包含的意思真的不是针对哪一个或哪一类人,暗指的对象应该是整个大众,所以,使用动名词开头的句型不仅是在说理,而且还更加客观、科学,是书面语的标志。

3、代词做主语

这种句型还是适用在找不到主语的情况下,但是情况要显得更加复杂一些。例如:“现在对于很多老师来说处理学生的在校不恰当行为并不是那么容易。”

句子看上去似乎很复杂,考生可能需要想很久、慢慢理清楚词与词之间的关系。其实,这时候有种很简单的方法就可以轻松地解决问题。那就是如果句子里有形容词,可以用这个句型来处理:“It is + adj. + for somebody to do sth.”

托福独立写作范文

As is known to all, receiving education has always been the main way for us to acquire knowledge throughout the human civilization history. Recently there has been a hot debate whether education today is more accessible to the public than in the past. As far as I am concerned, there is no doubt that people nowadays have much easier access to education with the following reasons.

To begin with, the advent of various high-tech products has enriched the ways and approaches to receive education. Obviously, with the introduction of advanced means of education, educational resources take on multiple forms such as distant education and online study, which make knowledge more accessible to us. However, in the past, the only way to get educated was to attend classess in traditional schools, which definitely increases the difficulty of gaining education. For example, in the process of making preparations for TOEFL test, I want to take class in Beijing New Oriental School. But I am an undergraduate student of a university far away from Beijing. Meanwhile, due to the academic pressure from my college study, it is impossible for me to take a month off and to have an intensive course in Beijing. Thanks to the online courses, I can take these classes in my college while handling the tasks and assignment from my field of study. The online courses make possible the in-time response to my questions and online submission of assignments.

Secondly, since more and more importance is being attached to education, it is much easier and essential to get educated than in the past. Under the society full of intense competition, acquiring formal education has become the essenital precondition for anyone to make a living. As a result, the public awareness of receiving education is much stronger than before, leading to a common phenomenon that an increasing number of parents send their kids to study abroad. However, in the bygone days/in the old days, the requirement for a person was not as strict as it is today, with the result that less attention was paid to education. According to a survey conducted by the National Educational Department in China, the number of students who take the national college entrance examination has risen from 88.3% in 2008 to 92.5% in 2013. Meanwhile, another research shows that the literacy rate in China has increased by 23.6% in 2013 compared with 61.50% in 1993. The above data has shown that the number of educated people has gone through a dramatic rise, which indirectly indicates that education now is more available to the public.

Admittedly, some areas in the world may be cited as an exception. For instance, people in the war-stricken areas including Iraq and Syria do not have easier access to education and some of them are even on the verge of starvation. In these areas, the current educational situation is not better than that in the past. However, such cases only occupy such a tiny percentage of the global population that they can be neglected.

In conclusion, I believe that it is much easier for the public to receive education than in the past with the aid of technology and the awakening sense of education.
