托福119分是如何辦到的?詳解他們的備考經(jīng)驗(yàn)
先說背景:英語專業(yè),也許算是基礎(chǔ)較好?但是自我感覺英語實(shí)際水平?jīng)]有很好,至少不是理論上能得119的水平。
備考過程及材料:時(shí)間只有21天,閱讀聽力只做了官方真題Official,每天刷一套,先做了第一套覺得不難就跳到了8,后面的做完了回頭才刷的前幾套,沒做完??谡Z1-2題每天盡量抽時(shí)間練,用亦鷗,開始練了點(diǎn)真題,然后準(zhǔn)備了黃金80題,都寫了稿的,比較簡單的只寫要說的點(diǎn),難的寫稿。大范圍機(jī)經(jīng)出了以后把機(jī)經(jīng)題也都練了。3-6題分幾次練,每次都是集中練習(xí),但是似乎也沒有找到傳說中的感覺= =作文最后10天開始準(zhǔn)備素材和模板,最后幾天才練筆。
可以看到我準(zhǔn)備的過程還是比較倉促,所以這就是我自認(rèn)為沒有考好的根本原因,只有理論自信沒有道路自信啊!!但是iBT終究是一個(gè)考試,既然是考試就可以有應(yīng)對方式。接下來分四部分來具體談,每部分再分成4小部分:1)自認(rèn)為沒有考好的原因2)實(shí)際上考好的可能原因3)一點(diǎn)經(jīng)驗(yàn)4)可以提高的地方,如果備考時(shí)間充足的話
鑒于每種題具體的方法論的東西網(wǎng)上很多了,我只說一些個(gè)人比較有感想的地方。
閱讀備考:
1) 自認(rèn)為沒有考好的原因:
準(zhǔn)備的過程中有一段時(shí)間每天都錯(cuò)很多,最多一次錯(cuò)了11個(gè),5、6個(gè)也是常有的事,一遇到數(shù)理化天文地質(zhì)的題就懵,經(jīng)??戳税胩觳恢勒f啥,導(dǎo)致信心嚴(yán)重受挫。而且注意力常常不能集中,看著密密麻麻的字就是讀不進(jìn)去。考試當(dāng)天遇到一題講日本氣候的,好幾個(gè)題都不確定。然后也遇到了進(jìn)入不了狀態(tài)的問題。
2) 實(shí)際上考好的可能原因:
考試時(shí)的狀態(tài)還是和平時(shí)不同的,注意力水平肯定還是上了一個(gè)臺階,在一定程度的緊張的帶動下。平時(shí)做題可能由于當(dāng)時(shí)的狀態(tài)和心理上的不夠重視導(dǎo)致錯(cuò)題較多,但要相信自己考試的時(shí)候一定能拿出最佳狀態(tài)的!
3) 一點(diǎn)經(jīng)驗(yàn):
我個(gè)人是先看題再從文章找。但是會先看題目和每段的段首句大概了解下主題,也有助于做最后一題的時(shí)候分清主次。
平時(shí)的錯(cuò)題一定要分析常錯(cuò)題型,去網(wǎng)上看人家是怎么分析的,不同題型的應(yīng)對方式很多大牛講過,就不贅述了。那如果每種題型都有怎么辦?我就遇到了,那只能各個(gè)擊破咯。不要就絕望了,要相信這很可能是狀態(tài)問題!
另外,考試最好能留出一點(diǎn)時(shí)間檢查,我就查出了一道錯(cuò)題。但是第三篇還是沒來得及檢查,前面做的還是慢了吧。
4) 可以提高的地方:
對于不熟悉的題材其實(shí)可以多看看紀(jì)錄片和背景資料,這樣心里有譜一點(diǎn),增強(qiáng)道路自信啊!
提高閱讀速度其實(shí)也挺重要,這個(gè)需要大量練習(xí)的,方法論網(wǎng)上多的是。
另外我建議一開始做閱讀的時(shí)候先用紙質(zhì)版,因?yàn)殚L時(shí)間對著電腦復(fù)習(xí)真的很累,還消磨意志,我在備考過程中屢次breakdown,很大程度上是疲勞作戰(zhàn)導(dǎo)致的。所以建議復(fù)習(xí)后半段再用軟件。
聽力備考:
1) 自認(rèn)為沒有考好的原因:
平時(shí)做聽力就老走神,考試也走了。不熟悉的題材和閱讀一樣hold不住。果然就被扣了一分啊。
2) 實(shí)際上考好的可能原因:
其實(shí)沒有考好= =畢竟閱讀聽力還是相對容易滿分的
3) 一點(diǎn)經(jīng)驗(yàn):
也談不上經(jīng)驗(yàn)了,就是關(guān)于要不要記筆記的問題,我個(gè)人是記的,但是確實(shí)有點(diǎn)影響聽的過程,而且筆記記的不好,回頭找常常看不懂自己寫的啥= =所以還是看個(gè)人習(xí)慣吧。
另外聽SSS是個(gè)好方法,能提高聽不熟悉題材的能力和專注度。
4) 可以提高的地方:
我相信大量練習(xí)可以解決聽和記同時(shí)進(jìn)行的問題的!想想那些同傳!!!如果能形成自己的一套筆記符號是最好不過的,但是我沒有= =
然后專注力的問題我覺得也是練出來的玩意兒,除了多聽以外,有一些小游戲是可以提高專注力的,每天玩一小會放松一下也好啊。像國外的Lumosity這樣的網(wǎng)站就很好,但是要收費(fèi)= =國內(nèi)有個(gè)愛海豚可以試試。另外其實(shí)連連看這種游戲也行的啊
口語備考:
1) 自認(rèn)為沒有考好的原因:
我大概屬于啞巴英語,表達(dá)障礙。剛開始練習(xí)的時(shí)候15s啥也想不到,45s能講幾句話而已。后來練得多了有所提高,但是感覺自己口頭表達(dá)還是不好,經(jīng)常想不到要用的詞啊,忘加第三人稱啊,he/she不分啊。考試那天1、2題倒比較順,沒想到4、5題都沒說完,而且最后一句都很慌亂,基本上語法糟亂語意不明。尤其第4題我因?yàn)樽铋_始的筆記沒有補(bǔ)全,所以第一句話就結(jié)巴了好久,最后說出來的句子語法估計(jì)也是錯(cuò)的。第6題還用錯(cuò)詞的情況,想說踩這個(gè)詞把tread說成trap….. 總之當(dāng)時(shí)就覺得完了肯定是兩個(gè)fair.
2) 實(shí)際上考好的可能原因:
口音!!我覺得自己的語音總體上標(biāo)準(zhǔn),只是口張得不夠大有些詞發(fā)音不到位,語調(diào)呢還是下降調(diào)多,偏中式一點(diǎn)。雖然遠(yuǎn)非完美,但這就已經(jīng)足夠給評分人留下好印象了。
另一個(gè)原因可能是因?yàn)槲一旧蠜]怎么用模板,用也是撿短的來說。最后得滿分大概印證了想要高分就拋棄冗長模板的說法,也證明了最后一句沒說完沒有關(guān)系,只要前面說的還不錯(cuò)給考官留下總體上的好印象就好。
3) 一點(diǎn)經(jīng)驗(yàn):
先說口音,一定要錄下來自己聽,如果實(shí)在聽不出來問題就去找老師或者程度好的同學(xué)聽他們意見。關(guān)于跟讀身邊確實(shí)有人用這個(gè)方法提高的,我自己沒怎么練過所以沒有發(fā)言權(quán)。
1-2題的準(zhǔn)備,80題一定要做,這是積累語料的過程。盡量想一些比較特別的個(gè)人化的答案,最好別用網(wǎng)上流行的萬金油答案。如果題特別難,你一下懵了答不上來,那不妨據(jù)實(shí)以告,然后談你對這個(gè)話題不熟悉的原因。比如問你生活中遇到的一大困難,你覺得自己這輩子還挺順風(fēng)順?biāo)矝]遇著啥大困難,那你就實(shí)話實(shí)說,然后為啥很順利呢?Because I’ve been following the same path taken by most of the youngsters across the country, and it’s also the one chosen by my parents. 然后blabla…這個(gè)方法是外教講的,反正不管怎樣,keep talking! 舉例也很重要,最好具體一點(diǎn)??荚嚂r(shí)候第1題是機(jī)經(jīng),問提高教育水平的一個(gè)方法。我的回答是pay-rise for teachers. 然后舉的例子是我去支教的時(shí)候發(fā)現(xiàn)那里的老師have to do farming work to help secure a living. I saw no passion on their faces. They didn’t have a sense of mission that they were there to educate. 其實(shí)我沒去過支教的地兒而且據(jù)說支教的地方條件都還挺好= =總之多發(fā)揮聰明才智及想象力吧!!!
3-6題的準(zhǔn)備我認(rèn)為集中練習(xí)還是挺好的,有利于總結(jié)不同題型,建立相應(yīng)的模板。這樣在考試的時(shí)候可以快速分辨這是個(gè)phenomenon or principal or what,然后平穩(wěn)地開始講述,講好開頭是非常重要的!可以提升信心。
還有個(gè)tips, 最好把筆記舉起來方便斜眼看時(shí)間。
4) 可以提高的地方:
我3-6題自認(rèn)為沒考好根本上還是因?yàn)闇?zhǔn)備的不夠,我只做了官方真題Official,然后亦鷗上面的題目似乎不好,就沒有再做了。沒想到什么好的解決之道。我想如果備戰(zhàn)時(shí)間長,也許可以把官方真題Official多練幾遍。從長遠(yuǎn)的角度講,要提高口語還是要多張嘴,這點(diǎn)我確實(shí)做的不好。

托福閱讀真題原題+題目
Of all modern instruments, the violin is apparently one of the simplest. It consists in essence of a hollow, varnished wooden sound box, or resonator, and a long neck, covered with a fingerboard, along which four strings are stretched at high tension. The beauty of design, shape, and decoration is no accident: the proportions of the instrument are determined almost entirely by acoustical considerations. Its simplicity of appearance is deceptive. About 70 parts are involved in the construction of a violin. Its tone and its outstanding range of expressiveness make it an ideal solo instrument. No less important, however, is its role as an orchestral and chamber instrument. In combination with the larger and deeper-sounding members of the same family, the violins form the nucleus of the modern symphony orchestra.
The violin has been in existence since about 1550. Its importance as an instrument in its own right dates from the early 1600's, when it first became standard in Italian opera orchestras. Its stature as an orchestral instrument was raised further when in 1626 Louis XIII of France established at his court the orchestra known as Les vingt-quatre violins du Roy (The King's 24 Violins), which was to become widely famous later in the century.
In its early history, the violin had a dull and rather quiet tone resulting from the fact that the strings were thick and were attached to the body of the instrument very loosely. During the eighteenth and nineteenth century, exciting technical changes were inspired by such composer-violinists as Vivaldi and Tartini. Their instrumental compositions demanded a fuller, clearer, and more brilliant tone that was produced by using thinner strings and a far higher string tension. Small changes had to be made to the violin's internal structure and to the fingerboard so that they could withstand the extra strain. Accordingly, a higher standard of performance was achieved, in terms of both facility and interpretation. Left-hand technique was considerably elaborated, and new fingering patterns on the fingerboard were developed for very high notes.

托福閱讀真題原題+題目
Scientists have discovered that for the last 160,000 years, at least, there has been a consistent relationship between the amount of carbon dioxide in the air and the average temperature of the planet. The importance of carbon dioxide in regulating the Earth's temperature was confirmed by scientists working in eastern Antarctica. Drilling down into a glacier, they extracted a mile-long cylinder of ice from the hole. The glacier had formed as layer upon layer of snow accumulated year after year. Thus drilling into the ice was tantamount to drilling back through time.
The deepest sections of the core are composed of water that fell as snow 160,000 years ago. Scientists in Grenoble, France, fractured portions of the core and measured the composition of ancient air released from bubbles in the ice. Instruments were used to measure the ratio of certain isotopes in the frozen water to get an idea of the prevailing atmospheric temperature at the time when that particular bit of water became locked in the glacier.
The result is a remarkable unbroken record of temperature and of atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide. Almost every time the chill of an ice age descended on the planet, carbon dioxide levels dropped. When the global temperature dropped 9 F (5 C°), carb°on dioxide levels dropped to 190 parts per million or so. Generally, as each ice age ended and the Earth basked in a warm interglacial period, carbon dioxide levels were around 280 parts per million. Through the 160,000 years of that ice record, the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere fluctuated between 190 and 280 parts per million, but never rose much higher-until the Industrial Revolution beginning in the eighteenth century and continuing today.
There is indirect evidence that the link between carbon dioxide levels and global temperature change goes back much further than the glacial record. Carbon dioxide levels may have been much greater than the current concentration during the Carboniferous period, 360 to 285 million years ago. The period was named for a profusion of plant life whose buried remains produced a large fraction of the coal deposits that are being brought to the surface and burned today.
1. Which of the following does the passage mainly discuss?
(A) Chemical causes of ice ages
(B) Techniques for studying ancient layers of ice in glaciers
(C) Evidence of a relationship between levels of carbon dioxide and global temperature

because it
(A) allowed scientists to experiment with new drilling techniques
(B) permitted the study of surface temperatures in an ice-covered region of Earth

(D) confirmed earlier findings about how glaciers are formed
4. The phrase tantamount to in line 7 is closest in meaning to
(A) complementary to
(B) practically the same as
(C) especially well suited to
(D) unlikely to be confused with
