托福阅读经典加试题机经汇总资料说明：托福阅读或听力部分，会在考试时要求考生多完成一篇阅读或者二篇听力，作为题目难以度的检测，一般而言加试阅读的数量为两篇文章，加试听力则是加三个听力段子。

随着热心考生的增多，这些试题，包括原文，题目和答案都被回忆整理出来了，叫做托福经典加试题机经。

本文档是托福阅读经典加试题部分。

“机经”这个说法，最早可能源于机考GRE的年代——在那段时间内的多次考题是可能完全重复的（一般以“自然月”为周期）。

常出现的情形是：月末参加考试的同学遇到的试题，居然与月初的试题完全一致。

所以，尽管我们在参加这些标准化考试之前都需先“签字画押”（签订保密协议，同意绝不将试题内容透露给任何第三方），但仍有“热心”的同学愿意在网络上回顾、分享自己考过的试题，这也就给后来参加考试的同学们创造了提前熟悉某些将要考到的真实考题的机会。

与之类似，机经在新托福（iBT）考试出现后，也逐步流行了起来，因为自从托福将纸笔考试（PBT）改革成计算机考试之后，也出现了重复出题的现象（尽管它并不是以自然月为周期的，但总归是重复了很多次，还是有规律可寻的）。

按照陈睿老师的说法，科班出身的理工科专业人才使用STATA或SPSS等统计软件来“处理数据、总结规律”的能力还是不可小觑的。

于是同学们总能看到诸多预测机经，也总能够听到我们的机经预测命中的消息。

这看上去貌似是一件皆大欢喜的事情。

但事实上，若同学们有缘读到这篇小短文，我最想对大家说的一句话却是“机经可能并不如你想象中的那么有用”。

尽管我们制作的“机经材料”经常命中考题，但我却时常在各类讲座中宣传“机经无用论”。

因为在一个真正经过了精心设计、目的是考查学生语言能力的测试中，出题者并不是那么在意学生是否已经提前了解了部分试题。

小站教育总结2014托福考试变化
回顾2014年托福考试，新托福ibt经历了时间调整、考位吃紧、新题涌现、考试内容涉猎广等等重大变革。

除了这些考试规则的改变，考试内容又有哪些变化？小站教育金牌总监老师盘点了一下2014年托福考试的一些重要变化。

听力盘点——语速加快，难度增加
2014托福听力话题分为学术背景类和校园生活场景类，学术类目中，生物类话题基本是每场必考的项目。

此外，很多小站学员都回忆说语速更快了，根本来不及做笔记，更别提听得很透彻了。

更为严峻的是，对话方面以传说中的“小讲座”为主，很多第一次考试的学员都反馈“听懵了”。

口语盘点——机经福祸相依
机经的出现解决了考生备考的不安，但也出现了新的问题：ETS为防止这种变相的“作弊”，设计e-rater来识别是否考生背过相关机经和答案，更是在5月24日的考试中出现了背机经一律15分的现象，所以更加要求考生熟练地展开话题及素材准备，而对于综合口语部分，中国考生今年普遍成绩为20-22分，最主要问题的是考生无法筛选和整合细节信息。

阅读盘点——难度大幅增加
2014年的托福阅读考试总体难度明显增加了，体现在：1、文章定位的难度增加，不再是靠着定位词读懂一两句话就能做出题目；2、三篇文章不再遵循从简到难的规律，很多次的考试第一篇文章就很难，因此不少学生卡在了第一篇的时间太久，导致后面的题目做不完。

写作盘点——预测概率变小
写作今年相较于去年，最大变动在于机经预测的概率小了。

小站托福机经的综合命中率在2014年依然高达90%以上，但在写作单项上有所折损。

今年的暑期档考生们发觉到机经都没中，多是国内考场自己出的新题且涉及面更加广“一日二题”现象频繁。
