我是作筆試的但是我的拖福考的不好就是了
基本上我是沒有去補習 但是當時也在準備GRE
所以 單字是省下來了 一起背啦
我的GRAMMER也是不好 但是就是去拿考古題做一做
聽力就是有空聽一聽他們的試聽帶 習慣速度啦
我也覺得閱讀很簡單 跟GRE比起來
那時就是多聽 多看多讀 也就好了
我的成勣是真的不高 但是考了第二次發現一樣成勣就放棄了
這或許就是我的程度吧(哈哈)
但是我覺得作文最好平時就多多練習啦
要不要在那麼短的時間擠出一篇起承轉合的文章很難的


_______________________________
GRE我就可以寫的比較多就是了

偶當時也是at跟toefl一起準備 所以有點搞不太清楚了@_@

作文的部分建議每天最少拿一篇題目來練習~~
(題目有在提供下載 http://www.toefl.org/)

閱讀就只能多看文章了 看越多越好
除了熟悉單字以外 就是增加速度

文法偶pass 偶自己都很爛@_@

聽力的話powerprep一定要聽 其他的偶也不知道該怎麼推薦
多聽聽cnn news discovery吧:):)

軟體的話powerprep一定要下載的 可以幫助你熟悉題型~~

總之偶覺得toefl沒想像中那麼難準備的
當然想要一步登天是不可能的啦
語言的東西都是需要累積的
只要有下苦心 一段時間就會看出成果的:):)

嗯....... 大概知道应该怎样准备了, 就是作文, 阅读, 听力, 语法四大块吧? :D
温哥华是180加币一次, 笔试, 机试都有......
大概最要下功夫的就是作文, 偶除了argumentative以外的文体什么几乎都不会 -_-
那个, 新东方的教材的话, 可以告知名字吗?

托福的阅读,可能会在考试时对我们造成一定麻烦,做阅读题,词汇是基础,占到70%到80%,但是托福的阅读是很有规律的,若再辅以一定技巧,则必可得高分.
如果词汇基础很好(比如说背过gre),读起托福阅读文章是享受的话,就不需要技巧了,只管去做题了.如果没有很强的词汇基础,可以看看.
托福的阅读文章有五篇,共50道题,55分钟完成.题型共有如下几种,括号内是题目的数目:1.主题题(3--4) 2.细节题(18--22) 3.词汇题(16--17) 4.推断题(3--6) 5.指代归纳题(3--6) 7.结构题 8.态度题 9.答问题 10.图形题
阅读方法:1.全文通读(词汇基础厚,否则不用); 2.带着问题找出处(1’出题目有次序性;2’一道题的答案不与太多信息联系); 3.topic(主题句)+考点.
我重点推荐第三种方法.
ok,用第三种方法读阅读文章,有两点目的,第一读出文章大意,第二读出考点.读出各段主题句---topic,读出考点(了解出题原则).

十种重要的出题原则(***):
一.列举:
1.列举 名词
a,b,c,and d (逗号离得近算) 插入语例外
a,b,c,and d 中谁特殊选谁
2.列举 sentence
1,2为集中式列举
3.分散列举
找出相关段落中有关内容
二. 举例子:
G.S(概述)---Example ,问why ......,mention .......,则答案在G.S中找,且illustrate,give example 作为答案居多,examplification 举例说明
两个或以上的例子,则找topic sentence
三.考数字:
1.数量级:
hundreds of thousands of 至少 200,000; dozens of 至少 24; scores of 至少 40......
2.年代:
following(+1), a couple(+2),...... +8
3.成串数字:
具体无用,只是说明大,广或者小,短,etc. 往往在下段的开头找答案(在一区间内) (95.8.6指95年8月的第六题)
四. 下定义:
1.定义内容的改写(95.8.1,95.8.25)
2.符合定义的例子(96.1.37,96.1.40) 根据定义判断例子是否符合
3.出现定义的行数:判断位置
下定义常见方式:1’A is B 2’A,B, 3’A--B-- 4’A, or B 5’A:B 6’A, that/whick (定从)
known as,name ,called,define
五.比喻:
black gold 石油 black diamond 煤
whales on beach 虎落平阳
out of place 错位 facelift 整容时拉平
refurbish 修葺 remodel 翻新
做题的时候读出比喻
六.对比:
A | match , parallel , rival | B
即指把A和B相比(三种比较),将B改一下即得Answer
as...as 形容词,副词的比较,最高级(一般考)
七.类比(天文学中出现较多):
可找具体文章练习
八.引用:
文中引用的部分,主要看出引用的话的趋势,进行判断.
九.TOPIC句:
每段开头的一,两句话
有关的题目:1’主题题 2’结论题 3’结构题 4’细节题
十.末句细节:
注意段末转折,及后文推断.

以上的十大出题原则,希望能够弄懂,在读文章的时候注意这些地方,这些就是考点,读出就可作对题目的.需要做一定数量的题目来熟悉这些考点.
具体的阅读方法:
先看一遍题目,弄清楚有些什么题目,然后读文章,找答案.
1.扫题(对文章预期):
扫有几道题---有几道有行数(词汇,指代,有行数的题目多简单)---大体,定性对文章分析.
2.做题次序:
主题题先空着,后做(需要对全文把握的题目:如结论,结构题同),在答题纸上打点,接着做后续的题目.
3.对于主题题:
联系各段主题句.
4.找出处:
a.界定法(上,下体界定中间题) 95%,如果两行太远则:
b.关键词法(找关键词:数字,大写字母,不易被换的名词和偏难的形容词.
a,b两法双管齐下(95.8.14)
c.出题原则.
b,c可避免题目次序的调整
5.难题&时间:
最多三分钟,开始遇到难题打点,选一个,最后再看.难题最多三,五个.第一遍追求准确率,检查最多二,三个(5分钟),在做完第三篇文章后看看时间."绝对难题"包括:很难的推断题,很难的词汇辨析题,首段结论题.

各类题目解法:
1.主题题:
正面联系各段主题句总结,加上逆推从答案出发,假想自己怎么写(正常思维),排除体裁风格不同的选项;注意关键词(各段主题句均出现的词一定选).
2.细节题:
找(出处)---改(写)---选(答案)
注意本题行数可能稍在上题前;改写适当;选对>排除错的;不要乱想.
3.推断题:(包括後文推断)
找出处---推断(合理)---选答案
4.指代题:
找出处,译出指代内容(注意重心原则,接力棒现象)
5.词汇题:
背词,猜,辨析
6.结构题:
联系各段主题句,连接处(段间),连词
7.结论题:(包括末端结论和首段结论)
末段---首段---中间段主题句
如果首末段很长,则均只看主题句.

上面所说的技巧,需要结合真题练习,熟悉才好.如果到考试的时候技巧用的不熟,就不要用,以免弄巧成拙.
只要你的词汇基础比较好,能读懂文章的意思,那么做题肯定不成问题了.
