9月申请的最后喘息,一个月搞定雅思计划距离9月申请已经不到一个月的时间,我们要想在这个较短的时间内快速提高雅思成绩又该怎么做呢?今天我们有幸请到了天道培训的曲凯琨老师,讲讲如何一个月搞定雅思计划。
本文为天道培训原创曲凯琨老师访谈,转载请注明出处和作者,违者必究!曲凯琨老师介绍主讲:雅思阅读特色:曾赴英攻读利物浦大学英语教育专业硕士课程,并以第一名的成绩获得优异荣誉学位,学术英语能力突出;多种出国英语考试的亲身经验,熟知出国英语考试的学习及中国学生的常见问题。
经历:题目及考点讲解细致;提倡英语能力的提升与解题的方法技巧并重,希望学生对阅读的学习能够有益于其在英语听、说、写等多方面的提升。
座右铭:路漫漫其修远兮,吾将上下而求索小编:目前雅思成绩被哪些国家所认可?曲凯琨老师:目前雅思已经被全球170多个国家,超过8000多个院校,职业机构,政府部门等认可雅思,因此,雅思并不是传统意义上的英联邦国家。
像美国,有3000多所院校认可雅思成绩,很多的常青藤名校都认可雅思成绩,甚至还有一些只认雅思成绩。
香港对于雅思成绩也是非常认可,考公务员之类都会用到。
小编:从出题方式,答题方式等角度,雅思跟托福考试相比有哪些区别,哪个更为困难一些?曲凯琨老师:最明显的区别就是,托福是机考,雅思是纸质考试口语上,托福是机考,时间限定比较严重,容易紧张。
雅思是个人对话,对于答题时间没有特别的限定。
听力上,托福都是先放音频,考生记笔记,然后答题;雅思是先发题目,然后答题,对于基础相对薄弱的同学比较合适。
阅读上,托福是机考,因此没法在写作上,雅思的写作更偏向学术写作,而托福对此无太大的要求,因此,托福写作高分相对较多,雅思能够达到5.5以上就比较少。
小编:距离9月申请季还有不到一个月的时间,短期内考生朋友应该如何安排复习时间?曲凯琨老师:首先选择剑4-9任意一套模拟题进行模考,然后找出自己的薄弱项,然后给薄弱项多分配一些时间。
听力:精做剑4-剑9,然后再听lecture,辅以BBC之类的泛听。
6月25日托福独立写作解析 | 名师干货托福名师曲凯琨老师解析6月25日托福写作内容。
今天的题目是:Most governments make efforts to protect environment, which one of the following methods is the most important to protect environment.1.To fund research to develop environmentally friendly energy sources, such as solar and wind energy.2.To preserve natural places, such as forest or wildlife habitats.3.To enforce laws to prevent air or water pollution produced by big companies or factories.Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.这是一道关于环保类话题的三选一类题目。
这是一道新题,之前从来没有出现在真实的考试中。
并且这是今年出现的第2道环保类题目了,往年一般每年会考1-2次环保类话题,并且一般都在年中或是下半年考试,但是今年才过了一半的时间,就已经考了2次了,ETS会不会今年继续考第3次环保类题目呢?所以对此类话题也不能完全就在之后的复习中置之不理。
对于这个题目,推荐大家选择第1个方案To fund research to develop environmentally friendly energy sources, such as solar and wind energy.,我们可以有如下的分论点:1. 更加有效。
研发新型的清洁能源能更加根本的解决环境污染问题,因为清洁能源的使用可以直接从源头上就避免污染物的出现,从而避免对环境产生污染。

【老师寄语】路漫漫其修远兮,吾将上下而求索12月6日托福独立写作题目Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?The best way for a teacher to help students be interested in a subject is to explain that subject will help them outside school.本题重复中国大陆考场2012年11月10日和北美考场2011年10月08日的考题。
考查的是ETS最常考查的教育类话题,属于比较常规的考查。
本题从题目表述的方式看属于绝对词汇类题目,认为老师引起学生对一门学科兴趣最好的方式是通过解释它在学校以外的地方是如何帮助学生的,所以,基于便于论证的角度,建议考生最好持不同意的态度,给出以下参考思路:主观点:不同意让步:讲解学科在生活的实际用处可能会引起学生对学习此科目的兴趣,但有其他方法可能也会达到这种目的并且比这种方法好分论点1:老师可以通过让学生增进对学科了解和熟悉来增加他们的兴趣分论点2:老师可以通过改变教学方法增加学生的兴趣范文:Education has become one of the hot issues drawing the attention of modern people especially those who relate to that occupation that is teachers who are considered to be influential in terms of promoting the quality of schooling, and during that process one topic, how to arouse the interest of students in learning, has been studied and debated for decades. Although the introduction of the practical value of mastering a subject might be useful, I do not believe that it could be the best approach and there are other effective ways to intrigue students’ interests in pursuing a subject.It should be admitted that teachers might be successful in attracting students’interests in an academic subject through talking about the help it can offer in the daily life. Students are likely to be appealing to a subject since they realize the knowledge they learn in that class could facilitate them to solve actual problems in the reality, which means the explanation about how it works could promote their desire to learn the subject. However, there are other methods teachers can explore in order to encourage the attraction of students to certain subjects, which might be more effective than displaying the benefits of the knowledge in the society. Those ways include familiarizing students with the subject and improving teaching skills, which could be regarded as the significant element in terms of intriguing the interest in essence. Therefore, it might not be the best way for teachers to motivate students to acquire the knowledge in a specific subject by presenting their functions in the society.Moreover, the familiarization of a subject could encourage students to develop their interest, which might triumph over expressing its function. Teachers can employ multiple methods including presenting the theoretic system of the contents,showing related movies or TV programs, and visiting museums to achieve the situation that students can be well exposed to the subject, which could advance their understanding and perception about the subject. Then the students might obtain the feelings about that subject and develop their desire of loving as well as exploring that subject. For instance, students might establish their interest in physics from watching TV programs such as the Discovery Channel, which shares similarity to the case of Sheldon in the Big Bang Theory, an American sitcom, who dedicates himself to physics because of a TV show about physics experiments he saw. That evidently indicates the influence of the exposure to a certain subject such as TV shows, and thus teachers can use this approach that is to have students be familiar with the subject in order to arouse their interest.In addition, it is probably a more effective way for teachers to enhance their teaching methods in order to attract their students to learn. Advanced teaching skills involving interactive teaching such as introducing games, discussions, group work, and role-play instead of traditional way of presenting knowledge by teachers themselves can add variety of teaching modes to the classroom, which could be helpful in promoting the active participation of students in learning and then increase the possibility of students in fascinating the subject. For example, a student could change his or her attitude toward literature which normally is a course performed by the teacher explaining obscure terms and sentences from feeling boring to liking it through taking part in the play of Hamlet directed by the English teacher in class. That change improves the involvement of students in the class as well as their interest in the topic of the class. Therefore, teachers can help students to establish their passion about a subject from changing their teaching methods in class.In conclusion, although presenting the actual usage in the reality might help students falling in love with a subject, there are other ways containing familiarizing them with the subject and increasing the diversity of teaching techniques. Therefore, it could not be the best way for teachers to promote the enthusiasm of students about one subject by stating its merits out of school.以上就是天道名师曲凯琨所给出的2014年12月6日托福考试写作题目的相关分析,希望能够为学子解惑,也希望能帮助将要考托福的学生提高写作成绩。
如何解读托福独立作文题目在托福考试中,很多考生都感觉读独立作文的题目如同绕口令,而且一遍过去还是没有看懂,有的考生甚至说读题要花半小时。
写独立作文的时间也就半小时,已经包含了读题和思考例子的时间。
之所以考生们觉得这样的题目太难读了,那是因为他们看惯了TPO中这样的出题模式:All the university students should be required to take history courses no matter what field they study. 或In twenty years, there will be fewer cars in use than they are today.今天,文都国际教育老师就为考生们讲讲如何解读题目以及如何快速呈现后续书写中的例子。
一、如何解读题目1. 断句最重要2月18日Task 2:Sometimes we are assigned to work in a group on a project. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? The group will be helped more by person who will be willing to do what other group members want than by person who often strongly insists that things should be done in a way that is different from what the group wants to do. 就这样看过去的话绝对是个绕口令的句子,因为中间连个标点都没有。
那么考生们知道在练习阅读的时候,有个题型是在四个选项中寻找意思最接近原文的句子:寻找句子逻辑关系和主谓关系。
相比起那个题型,独立作文题目的断句就容易的多了。
托福独立写作攻略托福考试独立写作攻略!为了方便考生在考后对于托福写作有一个清楚的了解,时代焦点名师为考生整理出了托福独立写作的要点,考生可以参考。
A. 审题审题是托福独立写作的第一步也是最为关键的一步。
审题核心是在理解题意的基础上抓住题目中的三个关键点:绝对词、比较词和限定词。
1. 绝对词绝对词顾名思义是表达绝对概念的词,常见的有:only, always, any, anything, best等。
绝对的概念是非常难以证明的,因为需要证明绝对范围内的每一种情况都适用。
同时也是最容易反驳的,因为只需要找到一个突破口就可以推翻。
所以在审题过程中找到绝对词可以为我们提供一个基本的同意或者不同意的思路,以及论证的突破口。
例:Always telling the truth is the most important consideration in any relationship between people.这个句子中包含Always, most important和Any三个绝对词。
通过这三个我们很容易找到反驳的论点:1.某些情况下我们不应该说真话2.说真话不是最重要的3.在一些特定的关系中我们不应该说真话这仅仅是通过绝对词找到的反驳点,针对题目的反驳还要结合整个句子的意思。
2. 比较词比较级属于比较词的范围。
比较词为我们圈定了论点的选择方向。
比如A比B好,那么论点选取就一定是A较于B优势的地方,突出比这个字。
例:In order to succeed, we should be more like others than be different from others.3. 限定词限定词是题目中对讨论的范围进行限定的部分。
由于句子中可能会出现较多的限定内容,导致同学们在审题过程中漏掉一些不明显的限定词,尤其是目的类限定词。
例:It is better for children to choose jobs that are similar to their parents' jobs than to choose jobs that are very different from their parents' jobs.这个题目中的定语从句吸引了找限定词的目光,导致其中一个最关键的限制词常常被忽略:for children. 目的类限定词,讨论的目的是对孩子好,许多同学会写对家庭或者社会的好处,都属于离题的论点。
【导语】托福⼝语的第⼀道题⽬是独⽴话题,也可称之为⾃由发挥题。
看上去很随意,考⽣容易拿个较好分数,但事实却是难倒了不少考⽣。
以下是⽆忧考整理的托福⼝语第⼀题的独⽴话题解析,欢迎阅读!1.托福⼝语第⼀题的独⽴话题解析 (⼀)简单原则,即:没有对错之分,只要⾃圆其说即可。
第⼀题是开放性话题,内容涉及4个⼤⽅⾯:⼈、物、地、事。
要求考⽣在15秒钟的准备时间之后,⽤45秒来回答问题。
这些问题都是最⾝边、最⽣活、最简单的话题,考⽣只要⽤最简单的语⾔答问题之所问即可。
有些时候⽤⼀些⽐较复杂的词汇或者句⼦结构反⽽会成为⼝语熟练表达的桎梏。
因此脑海中最先闪现的词或结构就可以摘来使⽤,当然这些词汇和结构要求恰当、合适。
(⼆)考⽣通常遇到的问题 1、整体来看-语调缺乏起伏;流利度不够;流利但是发⾳不清晰,语调太平;衔接性不强。
2、语⾔应⽤⽅⾯-⽤词不当(⼤词⼩⽤);句⼦结构有误;有明显的语法错误--思想混乱,三单、过去式形式错误,男⼥不分。
3、话题开展⽅⾯-有理由,没细节;只有细节,没有提炼出理由;语⾔空洞,理由和细节不能⽀撑所持观点。
4、中英转换时找不到合适且恰当的英⽂表达。
如果考⽣出现了上述所有问题,那⾃然分数低的"可观";⼀般考⽣只会出现上述个别现象,所以只要对症下药,就可取得⽐较⾼的分数。
(三)解决⽅案 1、每天的发⾳练习必不可少--⾄少坚持⼀个⽉。
⼤家要记住:语⾳⽅⾯,如果不是糟糕的不可救药的话,都是可以纠正过来的,所以⾸先要对⾃⼰充满信⼼。
那么到底要练习哪些⾳呢?其实就是国际⾳标中的6个困扰⾳,即中国考⽣最不容易发到位的⾳[ɑ:]、[e]、[]、[ei]、[ai]、[au];考⽣必须对着镜⼦把嘴型做到位,不断读这6个⾳,同时也要读其相关的单词,每天⾄少要练习30分钟。
2、选择合适跟读材料,每天跟读30分钟--不必花费⼼思挑选跟读材料,只要跟读我们的听⼒材料即可,⽐如红、蓝⾊Delta中的听⼒材料,尤其是跟读简单的对话材料(因为其内容⽐较⽣活化,有些短语可借鉴到⼝语内容⾥)注意模仿其语⾳语调,⾄少跟读3遍,并且总结其中的常⽤英语(论坛)短语表达。
托福独立写作主体段写法技巧——单一观点篇托福独立写作对于很多托福考生来说是取得高分难以逾越的一道鸿沟,这不仅需要大量的练习,还需掌握其中的诀窍。
今天,小编为各位考生带来托福独立写作主题段单观点的写法点拨,希望对各位考生有所帮助。
托福独立写作主体段写法技巧——单一观点篇通常对于独立写作我们都会选择五段式的结构,这个结构包括三个主体段,按照题型我们可以将写作类型分为三个:支持反对类(单观点)、对比比较类(双观点)、自主定义类。
首先我们要明确一下定义,单观点话题就是说题目只要求考生表明自己的态度,支持或反对,并且题目中没有任何要求拿来作比较的对象。
今天,闫玲娟老师跟各位考生分析一下有关单观点类题目的写作技巧,下面是一道典型的题目:Topic 2007.11.3People who do not work because they have enough money are rarely happy.这道题就是一道典型的单观点题目,“那些因为有足够的钱而不去工作的人,他们鲜少开心。
”针对单观点话题主体段的展开有两种方式,举例我们支持是A观点,先来看第一种写法。
1. A+A+A这种写法代表着我们需要用三个理由支持自己的选择。
Topic:It is desirable to know about events from all over the world even if it is unlikely to have any effect on your daily life.了解世界各地发生的事情是好的,纵使这些事不会对我们的日常生活产生任何影响。
1. To begin with, being aware of these cultural events means having more topics for communication.2. In addition, learning news about science is necessary for us to form correct world views in today’s fast-changing society.3. In the end, understanding political incidents serves as an excellent method to broaden our horizons.在这种写法里考生可举出了三个论点正向支持自己的态度,认为了解这些事情是必要的。
托福TPO18综合写作阅读+听力原文+满分范文【雷哥托福整理】在备考托福写作的过程中,总是将托福的独立作文放在了第一位,但是实际上,综合作文也是占到了作文总分30分里面的50%的分值,不要等到分数出来了,才发现其实是综合作文的limited或者fair极大的影响了自己的分数。
考过的同学会发现托福综合作文分数不高,很大程度上是受我们听力实力的影响,我们很多托福考生的听力分数只有16分上下的时候,对于托福综合作文的听力妥妥的是束手无策,而且很多托福考生还感觉自己都听懂了,那也只能说明你听懂了大意,但是听力里面要的是每一个细节!请注意,是每一个细节!雷哥托福小托君给大家分享TPO1-33综合作文部分的阅读和听力文本全集与综合作文的满分作文,以及满分作文的解析。
如果自己的托福综合作文分数如果可以很给力的话,就已经搞定了15分的分数,可极大地缓解托福独立作文的压力。
文末教你如何使用这个材料。
TPO18 综合写作听力+阅读原文ReadingIn the 1950s Torreya taxifoha, a type of evergreen tree once very common in the state of Florida, started to die out. No one is sure exactly what caused the decline, but chances are good that if nothing is done, Torreya will soon become extinct. Experts are considering three ways to address the decline of Torreya.The first option is to reestablish Torreya in the same location in which it thrived for thousands of years. Torreya used to be found in abundance in the northern part of Florida, which has a specific microclimate. A microclimate exists when weather conditions inside a relatively small area differ from the region of which that area is a part. Northern Florida's microclimate is very favorable to Torreya's growth. This microclimate is wetter and cooler than the surrounding region's relatively dry, warmclimate. Scientists have been working to plant Torreya seeds in the coolest, dampest areas of the microclimate.The second option is to move Torreya to an entirely different location, far from its Florida microclimate. Torreya seeds and saplings have been successfully planted and grown in forests further north, where the temperature is significantly cooler. Some scientists believe that Torreya probably thrived in areas much further north in the distant past, so by relocating it now, in a process known as assisted migration, humans would simply be helping Torreya return to an environment that is more suited to its survival.The third option is to preserve Torreya in research centers. Seeds and saplings can be moved from the wild and preserved in a closely monitored environment where it will be easier for scientists both to protect the species and conduct research on Torreya. This research can then be used to ensure the continued survival of the species.ListeningYou’ve just read about three ways to save Torreya taxifolia. Unfortunat ely, none of these three options provides a satisfactory solution. About the firstsolution-reestablishing Torreya in the same location-that’s unlikely to be successful, because of what’s happening to the coolest dampest areas within torreya’smicro-climate. These areas are being strongly affected by changes in the climate of the larger region. This could be because global warming has contributed to an increase in overall temperatures in the region or because wetlands throughout Florida have been drained. Either way, many areas across the region are becoming drier, so it’s unlikely that Torreya would have the conditions it needs to survive anywhere within its original Florida micro-climate.Now about the second solution, relocating Torreya far from where it currently grows,well, let’s look at what happened when humans helped another tree, the black locust tree, move north to a new environment. When they did this, the black locust tree spread so quickly that it killed off many plants and trees in the new environment, and some of these plants and trees were themselves already in danger of becoming extinct . So assisted migration can have unpredicted outcomes for the new environment.Third, research centers are probably not a solution either. That’s because th e population of Torreya trees that can be kept in the centers will probably not be able to resist diseases. For a population of trees to survive a disease, it needs to be relatively large and it needs to be genetically diverse. Tree populations in the wild usually satisfy those criteria but research centers would simply not have enough capacity to keep a large an diverse population of Torreya trees, so trees in such centers will not be capable of surviving diseases in the long term.首先,就是在自己做托福TPO模考之后,可以根据这里面的听力的文本,来检验自己的听力内容是否抓的足够好,尤其是要看写的够不够全!很多时候,我们的综合作文之所以分低,就是因为听力写的不全!第二点,也可以用于在托福考试前来做跟读,有不少托福考生跟小托君说,自己的口语实力不够,那么做跟读,仔细地来模仿ETS官方素材,是一个很好的提高自己口语的方式。
托福培训丨托福独立写作主体段的论证方式朗阁托福培训中心丁仡然在托福独立写作当中主体段的写作水平往往是决定一篇文章高分与否的关键所在,可以说一篇文章70-80%的分数是取决于主体段写作的好坏的。
而托福独立写作主体段对于写作的层次和论证方式又有着一定的讲究和固定的要求。
本文中,朗阁托福培训中心的老师就给广大考生介绍一下托福写作主体段有哪些主要的论证方式以及范例的讲解。
首先,我们先说一下托福写作主体段的一般写作层次和论证方式:主体段一般由四句话组成:第一句:topic sentence(主题句)第二句:supporting sentences(1-2句支持句),使用具体的因果论证或者假设论证、并列关系等来具体的解释说明主题句。
第三句:举例子(写出一个长长的例子用于举例论证)第四句:这一段的小结(可以使用对比论证或者因果论证等小结这一段)知道了每段主体段的写作结构后,现在我们就来谈谈具体的每个主体段的论证方式:第一种:举例论证可以这么说,举例论证是所有论证方法里,尤其是托福写作里面最重要也是必须要用的一种论证方式,因为根据评分标准,在托福4-5分的标准里都明确提出了:5分:using clearly appropriate explanations, exemplifications, and/or details4分:using appropriate and sufficient explanations, exemplifications,and/or details而无论是托福,雅思还是SAT考试都是严格的按照评分标准来批改的,所以根据这个标准学生必须要重视和用出举例论证,否则托福写作无法拿到高分。
接下来问题来了,究竟老美喜欢的举例论证有几种形式呢?接下来笔者就为考生们一一回答。
第一种:以for example, for instance, such as等词组引出的句子,这种也是最普遍或者用的最多的一种。
6月18日托福独立写作解析 | 名师曲凯琨干货
今天的题目是:
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement:
To be successful, one should change his or her minds and accept new ideas.
Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
这是一道关于成功类话题的should类题目。
此题一道新题,之前从来没有出现在真实的考试中。
不过此题和之前中国大陆考区2008年1月27日、2007年3月17日和北美地区2008年1月27日、2007年3月17日的考题(Successful people try new things and take risks rather than people just doing what they already know.)非常相似。
对于这个题目,推荐大家选取同意的态度,我们可以有如下的分论点:
1 减小竞争压力。
如果接受新观点,人们很发现新领域,而拓展新领域的时候,竞争者通常是比较少的,在竞争少的方向开展事业或者学术研究,通常比较容易获得成功。
例如当年马云在网络购物鲜有人涉足的时候建立淘宝网,成为现在的首富。
2 顺应发展潮流。
社会是不断变化发展的,只有顺应这个趋势,也不断的进行自身的变化,接受新事物才能符合社会各项的变化趋势,最后获得成功。
但是,如果一个人固步自封、墨守成规,只会止步不前,更谈不上成功。
如同当今社会是电子和网络的时代,而如果企业还是坚持所有的资料程序都是纸质书写、人与人当面解决所有的工作沟通和业务拓展,而不是利用网络来提高效率,就很有可能面临业绩不良而破产倒闭。
3改正错误。
有的时候旧的想法会让人们难免犯一些错误,如果能接受新的正确的想法,就可以及时改正错误,而只有及时改正错误才有最终成功的可能。
如果领导者坚持自我的主观想法,而不及时听取下属通过实际调查和个人技术特长所给出的正确建议,就很可能引导整个团队走向错误的方向,导致失败。
不知道诸位考得如何呢?
最后,祝大家都有好成绩,多多关注北美考试帮每周的预测和解析~
