有关雅思的备考方法

你好，我打算现在开始准备雅思，7、8月份考试。这几个月有充分的时间去准备考试，但我有点没有头绪，不知道该怎么复习好。因为看到你好像考了7分，想向你请教一下。谢谢啦~

Answer 1

你好，很高兴为你解答：
你可看看我们学生的学习计划：
在北京语言大学参加了A类的雅思考试，最后的成绩是Listening： 8.0，Reading：8.0，Writing：7.5，Speaking：7.5，Overall Band Score：8.0。

通过测试，根据我的英语基础，给我制定了学习方案，感谢在这里给过我很大帮助授课老师。我能取得8分的成绩，与他们细致入微的讲解和指导是分不开的。下面，我就分别从听、说、读、写这四个方面入手，谈谈我一个月的雅思备考复习。

听力：
我准备雅思听力使用的就是剑3~剑7这20套真题，还有有再买其他的复习材料，也没有看过机经。因为雅思真题的数量非常有效，所以我认为备考的时候应该珍惜每一套真题。如果听第一遍的时候没有选出答案，千万不要翻后面的Tape scripts，要静下心来认真的再听一遍。如果第二遍仍然没有听懂，那就不要再继续重复的听下去了，因为这可能就不是听力的问题了，而是词汇或是做题技巧的问题，这时候就要进行反思，如果是词汇的问题，就要买本好的雅思词汇书每天坚持背单词，如果是做题技巧的问题，就要开始学着总结并记忆听力中的经典陷阱和应试技巧，例如顺序原则、所听即所得的原则等等。

另外，雅思的审题也十分重要，尤其是Section4，它的难度本身就是听力四个部分中最大的，而给的审题时间又是最少的，因此这一部分的内容也成为了很多考生的噩梦。在这里我想给大家介我们老师课上教过我的一个审题技巧，这也是我后来在练习包括考试时采用的策略。在录音开始的2分钟里，也就是介绍雅思听力考试和Section1 的例子部分，看1到24题，然后当Section1中用来举例的那部分对话被第二次提到时，看1到5题并解答。然后按照录音要求，看6到10题并解答。在Section 1 check的时间里不要检查，继续往下看题，看25到30题。然后Section2 完全按照录音要求作答，同样在检查的时间里继续往下看题，即31到35题，以此类推，在检查Section3的时间里正好可以看到第40题。因为最后会有10分钟的时间誊写答案，而5分钟其实就足够你把答案从试卷移到答题卡上了，所以最后的5分钟就用来检查，重点关注题目的字数要求、单词拼写、大小写、单复数等问题。

最后要注意的一个问题是，在考试的那天早上，最好在进考场前听一套完整的剑6、7上的听力，不用做题，好好听就可以了，这样可以帮助你在开考时迅速进入状态。

阅读：
在阅读方面，我看了（雅思9分密码-阅读）这本书，还做了剑3到剑7上的20套真题。当然我的阅读考的并不是太好，可以说是这次比较遗憾的地方。但阅读老师何满讲的雅思六点论还是对我解题起到了很大的帮助，比较难的三类题目，T/F/NG、小标题题、段落信息搭配题，用何满老师讲的方法都可以在很短的时间里解决战斗同时保证很好的正确率。在这里，我想重点提到的是反向思维的重要性，这种思维对于解雅思的学术类阅读题非常重要。

所以，如果想在雅思阅读中取得好成绩，一定要在平时的练习中关注反向思维词。例如：题目中出现increase、rise、growth等词，在原文中就应该对应有实际的数字变化，题目出现future、past等词，在原文中就应该出现时间年代，等等。

写作：
写作的成绩真的是要非常感谢写作老师，我准备写作也没有买其他的材料，就是用的老师上课的讲义。下面我从Task1和 Task2分别来说自己是如何准备写作的。Task1朴老师在课上一共分了5种类型，每一种类型在课后都留了3篇背诵文章和2篇模写文章，还有总结出的一些地道的表达方法。上述所有的内容。不论是要背的还是要写的，我在考前这一个月里都从头到尾完完整整的过了4遍，到了真正的考场上就真的有了朴老师在课上说的停不住笔的快感，所以写作真的没有什么取巧的办法，就是按照老师的要求，踏踏实实的练。

Task2由于时间上的问题，我除了完成课上的作业外就没有做太多的模写，但由于以前考过GRE的AW，对其中的话题大部分还是比较熟悉的，对于Task2我想说的是不要准备高频题，因为它的偶然性太大了，题目稍微变动一点就很容易写跑题，如果要准备就准备高频的素材。

比如教育、艺术、科技、传媒、犯罪、环保等，每一种素材都不要太专，这样面对任何题目只要稍微做些改动就可以用上了。

口语：
我觉得口语主要还是要靠平时的积累，一定要选择自己喜欢的方式，看电影也可以听广播也可以去英语角也可以，都没问题，重要的是坚持，还要敢于开口练习。这一个月里我确实没怎么准备过雅思口语，只是在考前一天过了一些Part1的题目，脑子里想了想，但第二天这些问题也全都没被问到。

这里我想谈三个问题，一个是compare的重要性，这个能力是口语老师在课上反复强调的，而Part3中的很多问题考官其实都是在试探你是否可以从不同的角度来看同一个社会问题。所以我觉得大家平时可以积累一些关于比较的小品词，这些词用在恰当的地方就可以成为你口语考试的亮点。另外，还有一个小技巧就是口语考试可以和作文的Task2共同准备，我虽然没有怎么看口语，但是我在上面提到过我曾准备过一些高频素材，而在那天的口语考试中，我在Part3里主要被问到的两个问题分别就是Advertisement和Consumerism对社会和环境的影响，正好对应上了传媒和环保的素材，但是，口语参考写作，借鉴的是思路和观点，语言上一定要变，否则就会让考官觉得你是在背书，不是在交流。最后我想说的就是肢体语言在口语考试中的使用，雅思和托福的最大区别就在于口语是和真人对话，所以它考察的就不仅仅是你语言本身的能力，更是语言的交际能力，这包括眼神的交流和肢体语言。

在我看来，想要取得一个好的口语成绩，在进入考场的那一刻就应该忘掉这是在考试，要把它当作一次谈话和一次交流，这种状态其实才正中雅思考官的下怀，中间偶尔的错误或是冷场也就不再重要了，因为真实的交际就是这样的。

总而言之，雅思是一个比较人性化的考试，在这种英语能力的考试中，想要拿到高分，技巧固然不能少，但平时的积累才是真功夫。选择一个自己喜欢的学英语的方式，坚持做下去你也一定可以拿到满意的分数。

再送一些口语HOT TOPIC

1. Why parents would prefer to home school their children?
Parents prefer to home school their children because it has been observed that children who are home schooled tend to be able to make it to international universities. Most people would be concerned about the child having an abnormal social life as he will not have any classmates when he is home schooled. Surprisingly, home schooled children seemed to be well rounded as compared to children who go to the traditional schooling. Parents can pay particular attention on the weakness of the child and focus on how to improve this when home schooling.

2. What are the advantages of Chinese education that you think should be passed on to the next generation?
Chinese characters seem to be complicated, yet very interesting because each stroke and character has a meaning of its own. When a character is combined with another character, the meaning becomes different already. Chinese history is very rich in culture and values which are essential in one’s character and lifestyle. Sadly, not all the Chinese are lucky enough to be able to learn all these things.

3. Do you think that having a 9 year-compulsory schooling is enough to have a bright future?
I am not convinced about the idea that a 9-year compulsory schooling is enough to have a bright future. It would really depend on the child’s emotional maturity, character, capacity, intellect and resilience to be able to have a bright future. Most of the tycoons that we know did not come from well to do backgrounds, thus some of them were not able to finish even the elementary level. A bright future is not only gauged on material gains, but on how much this individual has contributed for the benefit of those around him.

HOT TOPIC TWO Media
Media – Magazine, Newspaper, Radio, Television and Advertisement are all parts of Media. In the IELTS speaking test, there are a variety of questions comparing these different media types because it is considered to be the most powerful source of information that can straightly affect and influence people. Media is widely spread all over different places and countries. Most of the time it can change people’s way of life and way of thinking ,so examiners would like to know how you think and feel about it. Here are some examples of questions related to media in the IELTS speaking test.
1. Do you think that we should have censorship in TV programs?
Yes, I think that we should definitely have censorship in TV programs. I speak not only for the children but for the adults as well. What we see on TV do affect our subconscious level more than we are actually aware of. X rated films and violent programs are major factors why crime and violence are very rampant in the world we are living in.
2. Why some people are willing to spend a lot of money in purchasing magazines?
Magazines can be source of leisure yet can be informative as well that is why some people do not hesitate to splurge their money on these things. Through magazines, we can read about the life of some of our favorite celebrities. We get to also learn about practical tips about budgeting, fashion, improving our homes, etc. It is a source of entertainment where learning is fun and not forced.

3. What kind of influence can advertisement give to people?
Advertisement either compels people to buy or refrain them from buying certain things or from doing certain actions without their conscious awareness. It is a very powerful tool to influence the mindset of people both young and old. All types of advertisement seem to have this kind of impact whether they are found on the billboards on the trains, buses and roads, whether they are found in the magazines or newspapers, and whether they are seen on TV. Advertisement has great power to boost or break a particular brand.

HOT TOPIC THREE Science and Technology
Science and technology – This is one of those things that is changing rapidly in the society. Computers, MP 4, appliances are all part of the development of Science and technology. Any kind of change about these things usually has a very strong impact on us, some positive and some negative. Questions about pros and cons about this topic are often asked by the examiners during the exam. And anything about science and technology can become a question in IELTS speaking test. Here are some example questions candidates should know.

HOT TOPIC FOUR Flat and House
Flat and House – The most “in” topic in the last quarter of the year 2009. It is actually also one of the hottest topics last year, the year 2008. The difference between house and flat are the most in demand question about this topic. To be able to answer the questions well, candidates should at least know the difference between the two and have opinions about each one of them. What kind of decorations, and things that can be found inside a house or apartment should also be known by the candidates who are preparing to take the test?

HOT TOPIC FIVE Law
Law – This topic caused panic and anxiousness to the students in the first quarter and through the second quarter of this year. Because most of the students do not have anything to say about it. Plus, the fact that this topic needs a certain depth in both their language ability and knowledge to be able to conquer and answer the questions about law. In my opinion, students should know and be definite about the punishment of the law that they want to say. If not, or students are not sure of their knowledge, it is wise to give opinionated answers rather than giving information and details about it .Take note : There are no right or wrong in one’s opinion!

HOT TOPIC SIX Transportation
Transportation — Transportation topic in IELTS speaking test includes questions about bus, subway, train etc. Bicycle is often asked during the exam because it represents a strong culture of the Chinese people in terms of transportation. Examiners like to ask questions regarding special culture and means of lifestyle of a place. It is indeed a part of every one’s life.

HOT TOPIC SEVEN Pollution
Pollution – A huge problem in the society that should be solved immediately and that is why this topic is also tackled in IELTS speaking test. We are facing a variety of pollution problem such as air pollution, water pollution and noise pollution etc. Examiners would like to know how the candidates feel about this serious problem and methods to solve them .

HOT TOPIC EIGHT Population
Population – Population is indeed the biggest and worst problem of China. The effect of this problem is widely talked about in news, debates and even in IELTS oral exams. How to reduce the population is also one of the most important thing that people should care about. Adequate knowledge about questions regarding the negative effects of population and positive ways of solving this problem are necessary if you want to take the IELTS exam.

追问

请问这个是以大概英语几级的水平开始准备而得到的8分效果啊？

Answer 2

如果真的一点头绪都没有，先抱个班吧。我去新奇咨询的时候，老师就建议我先跟着老师学习，等到方法什么都掌握了就可以自己开始准备了。自己准备的话，真题是必备的！！如果你有单科成绩要求的话，就要多练口语和写作，我们中国学生一般这两个比较弱嘞。。加油！

Answer 3

作为过来人，我觉得这种考试，自己闭门造车的话有点悬，过来人都知道，笔记很重要。我第一次考雅思，考了6分，后来还想强化，就报了 易格英语，让美国外教一对一辅导，1个半月后第二次考，7.5分。所以培训也还是重要的，他们是在线的学校，所以对谁来说都很方便，可以去听听他们晚上8点的试听课，可能有用。

Answer 4

做剑桥5-7 看机经
最好报个新东方的雅思强化班

Answer 5

1.背诵高中单词 高中词汇不多 而且比较简单 常用~~一面看课文一面背单词 记忆效果会比单独背单词来的好

2.报名一个不超过30人的雅思基础班 最好是听说读写都有的 并且看一些网上的雅思考试 复习的经验
同时巩固单词

3.早上做听力 做完以后不要对答案 再听一次 并写下录音稿 能写多少写多少 坚持写
下午先做阅读和写作 各一个小时 没有做完 也不要再做了 要管好自己的时间 然后把阅读答案对了之后 精读文章 (阅读一般是三篇 一个小时)
先开始会有点痛苦哦 不过慢慢的就会好的~!
作文写完了要给别人改 能给老师最好~~没有老师也要找一个比你水平高一点 熟悉雅思的人
