第四篇：托業(yè)考試

托業(yè)考試心得（930分；人大教材；6級500分水平，20天復(fù)習(xí)）

首先說下，寫這個東西只有一個目的，就是回饋下社會，因為當(dāng)初考的時候看了很多文章，不管怎樣都獲得了一些有用的信息和啟發(fā)。分數(shù)也不牛逼，準(zhǔn)備時間也不短，但希望可以對于像我一樣底子薄弱的人可以有些幫助。

還有一點要說明，這篇文章里說的大部分內(nèi)容都是針對應(yīng)試的，這樣去學(xué)習(xí)，主要目的就是為了考試，并不能從根本上幫助你增長英語水品。所以有時間的同學(xué)還是建議你們每天花點時間，日積月累的，真真提高英語水品。

好了，言歸正傳。我用的教材是人大的閱讀，聽力，6套模擬題。

首先說下聽力吧，我第一次做托業(yè)聽力的時候大概錯了30個，有點郁悶，但并沒在意，因為已經(jīng)半年完全沒看英語了，所以這個結(jié)果也算情理之中，因為本身底子就不好。

我當(dāng)時是這樣聽的，早上按考試時間聽一篇，然后對答案，下午的時候精聽，把每個單詞，每個句子都聽懂，然后過2到3天，找一個晚上的時間脫離題目，再把聽力原文聽一次。每套題都是這樣循環(huán)。

下面說下聽力過程中要重點注意的問題： 1．

不管你開始的時候一篇文章做完之后錯多少個，你一定要有信心，因為經(jīng)過將近一個月的時間，你的聽力水平肯定是可以提高的，所以一定要有信心。并且經(jīng)過我參加考試后的經(jīng)驗發(fā)現(xiàn)，真題的聽力并不難，也可以說很簡單。

2．關(guān)于精聽過程中的問題，有些地方聽不懂，我不會反復(fù)聽很多次，基本上我最多聽5次，如果還是聽不懂，我會放棄聽懂這個單詞，而是把這個沒聽懂的單詞或詞組的發(fā)音記下來，這點應(yīng)該不難吧，大家的聽力都沒問題，肯定能聽見，能模仿。為什么要這么做呢？因為后來我發(fā)現(xiàn)托業(yè)考試是一個針對性很強的考試，他不會像cet6那樣，什么樣的內(nèi)容都涉及到，大部分都是一些基本的商務(wù)上的，公司里的用語，所以重復(fù)出現(xiàn)的單詞或詞組的概率很大。針對這些沒聽懂的地方，你把發(fā)音記下來，就相當(dāng)于在你腦子里留了一個印象，留下了一個痕跡，但下次再出現(xiàn)這個詞的時候，就可以條件反射的得到漢語意思。如果你沒這么做，那么可能遇到這樣情形，你在考試的時候聽到這個詞了，你思考了幾秒鐘想起來了這個詞的意思，但這個時候聽力還在照常進行，你之后的幾秒鐘的聽力內(nèi)容缺被忽略了，嚴重影響答題。所以平時在練習(xí)的時候，一定要注意積累這樣的盲點，前面說到的晚上復(fù)習(xí)聽力的階段，也是為了重溫盲點，掃除盲點。

3．Part 1和Part 3比較簡單（個人認為，練習(xí)到后來的感覺），所以講下針對part 2 和part 4的經(jīng)驗。

其中，p2的經(jīng)驗主要是從人大教材上學(xué)來的，感覺還可以，雖然有些東西肯定用不到，但說了總比沒說強，所以可以去看下人大教材里的講解。說下考試經(jīng)驗，我在考試中，第一道題沒聽懂，輕敵了，所以嚴重影響了后面幾部分的考試，所以大家可以從中吸取經(jīng)驗教訓(xùn)：從第一道題開始就鼓足精神，認真去聽；如果有聽不懂的，千萬要放棄，不能為了一棵樹放棄一片森林，千萬要放棄，在練習(xí)的時候可以練習(xí)放棄--。

P4的話書上說什么不用選原文出現(xiàn)的答案，要選同意變換的，其實我覺得不然，其實到后來，有些p4的文章，我也是聽不懂，但基本都能選對，我總結(jié)了下，為什么會有這個效果，第一個原因就是在聽原文的時候，一定要注意從整體把握，大概明白文章在說什么，還一定要注意說話人的語氣，有的時候一些題目完全可以從說話人的語氣中選出正確答案；第二就是可以采用“2點確定一條直線的”的方法。具體是這樣的，在做文章之前，爭取先看一下題目，找到題干跟選項的關(guān)鍵詞，在聽原文的過程中，注意聽提干的關(guān)鍵詞，在這個詞的前后，如果出現(xiàn)了選項里的關(guān)鍵詞，那正確答案基本就是這個選項了，個人覺得這個辦法很好用，特別是在不能完全聽懂文章的時候，大家可以嘗試著去感受一下。（以上這些方法同樣適用于p3，至于p1的方法，人大教材里已經(jīng)說的很具體了，大家自己體會吧）

4.還有一點也說下吧，就是一定要提前看聽力原文，我是按照人大教材介紹的順序去看，感覺還可以。有些地方可以利用的，比如發(fā)下卷子之后，雖然卷子是封的，但你可以從底下掀起來看到最下面的題，也會幫你省時間，老師是不會管的，只要你別直接撕開。還有就是，做每套題的時候，要嚴格按照考試的時間來做，每次都認真對待，集中注意力快速掃題干跟選項，平時注意練習(xí)，這個能力也是可以提高的，比如只看題干的第一個疑問詞，大寫的詞，跟時間等，選項中前半部分重復(fù)的地方，就掠過，不要讀，記住不要讀，因為之前是在用眼睛掃，而不是讀，讀的話浪費時間，用眼睛跟腦子掃，完全可以達到預(yù)期效果。（這些練習(xí)題的聽力題干跟選項普遍偏長，所以大家在練習(xí)的時候如果讀不完也不要緊，只要你用心去練了，可以集中的讀，考試的時候一定可以讀完）

5.聽力差的人考前前20天建議每天都聽2套題左右，這樣可以讓耳朵熟悉，很管用。

下面說下閱讀部分：

每天上午對完聽力答案之后，按考試時間做一套閱讀，上午有時間的話可以對對答案，如果沒時間就等下午精聽聽力后，認真分析錯題。

1．我看過幾篇人大語法跟詞匯的書，但到真正考試的時候發(fā)現(xiàn)part5 6 很簡單，不像練習(xí)里的那么難，所以大家可以考慮不用看那個書，因為太難了，沒用，反倒浪費時間。不過你可以看下那本書之前的講解，跟最后的一部分，叫什么“20天突破什么的”難度還可以，如果你底子不錯，完全可以不看那本書，只需要把模擬題的p5 6弄明白就行。這兩部分要拿滿分很難，但想丟太多分也同樣很難。

2．關(guān)于p7,真正的考試也很簡單，但模擬題里的文章有點難了，而且有些分析的跟放屁一樣，完全沒作用，有的分析讓你莫不著頭腦，所以在做閱讀那本書的時候，大家不用太較真，可以把那本書當(dāng)做一個練習(xí)時間的書，有些問題錯了，看了講解之后還不懂的話，就可以不用管他了。但做模擬題的那6套的時候，希望你可以弄懂每一道錯題，要知道為什么錯了，怎么錯的，正確答案跟錯誤答案之間有什么區(qū)別，正確答案是怎么被隱藏的等等。久而久之，就能有很大的提升。

3．在練習(xí)閱讀的過程中，有時間的話可以把一些生詞記下來，每天復(fù)習(xí)一下前面幾天的單詞，循環(huán)下去。個人覺得這個考試不用單獨去花時間背單詞，只需要把做過的題中的生詞有選擇的記下來就可以了。

4．我在練習(xí)的時候，幾乎每次都有一些題明明會，但就是選錯了，分析后發(fā)現(xiàn)，基本這樣的題多是出現(xiàn)在我沒把整篇文章看完就選擇的情況下，所以針對這個問題，我以后不管文章長短，簡單或是難，我都把文章看完，這樣做可以讓你至少少錯2到3個題目。特別是最后的double reading 一定要看完文章，做題速度還可以的話，一定要看完每篇文章。

5．從練習(xí)開始，每次都要嚴格控制時間，留出5-10分鐘涂卡，特別是在冬天，沒暖氣的考場里涂卡是挺浪費時間的，不過大家也別太擔(dān)心，真正考試比模擬題簡單，考試的時候我提前20多分鐘就答完了。所以大家一定要有信心。

Ok，說了那么多，可能有點亂，因為是第一次寫這樣的東西，加上本來自身的文學(xué)修養(yǎng)就不夠，所以還請大家見諒。

再強調(diào)幾點，模擬題比真題難，可以說難的多，所以你們一定要有信息；每次練習(xí)都要做到3點：控制時間；全神貫注；認真總結(jié)。TOEIC Tips

1.Set a goal

So, you've decided to take the TOEIC test.Congratulations!The first thing you should do is set a goal.If you are taking the test in order to apply for a job, find out what proficiency level is required.Most entry level positions require a minimum score of 600.Management positions may require a higher score, such as 800.Choose a goal that is achievable.If you aim too high, you will be disappointed.Remember, you can take the test as often as you want if you don't mind paying the fee.2.Understand the test

Before you start studying for the test, make sure you understand the format of each section.You will be tested on your listening and reading comprehension skills.By doing model or practice tests, you will become very familiar with the TOEIC.The test should become “second nature” to you before you attempt the real thing.3.Make a study plan

Procrastination is one of the key reasons students fail the TOEIC test.You may book your TOEIC test months in advance.However, the day you decide to take the TOEIC test should be the day you start to study.You will have to decide whether or not you are going to teach yourself the TOEIC with reliable resources or whether you are going to take a TOEIC preparation class.In order to get the best results, you should do both.If you cannot afford to take a TOEIC class, make sure to choose a TOEIC textbook that has explanatory answers.You will also want to have a teacher or tutor that you can go to from time to time with questions.If you choose a TOEIC class, make sure that you trust your teacher and feel comfortable in his or her class.Take a class with a friend and make a commitment to study together in and outside of class.Studying at the same time every day is a great way to improve your score.Write down your study plan and sign it!4.Divide study time appropriately

The TOEIC is divided into seven sections.Each section is worth a certain amount of points.Don't spend too much time studying one section.Many students make the mistake of studying the section that they enjoy the most.This is the section you should spend the least amount of time on.You might want to divide your study week by focusing on a certain section each day.Remember, if Sunday is your day to practice Part VII(40 questions on the test), you might have to study twice as long as you would on Monday when you focus on Part I(20 questions on the test).5.Build a strong vocabulary

Another reason students fail the TOEIC test is that they have a very limited vocabulary.The day you decide to take the TOEIC test you should make yourself a blank dictionary.Use a notebook(an address book works great because it is divided into letters)and keep track of all of the new words you learn along the way.It is not useful to study vocabulary lists.You will only remember words that you have seen in context.For each entry, write the word and use it in a sentence.At the end of each week you should write a short letter or composition using as many of the words as you can.This might also be the time to stop using your translation dictionary.Electric dictionaries make things too simple!You will 6.7.8.9.not remember the word if it doesn't take any effort to understand it.Keep in mind that the TOEIC test has a business theme.You should study vocabulary from topics such as travel, banking, health, restaurants, offices, etc.You will also want to learn everyday idiomatic expressions.Isolate your weak points

After you have been studying the TOEIC for a while, you will find out which parts give you the most trouble.You might want to change how you divide your time.There are certain grammar points that many students have trouble with.If you are taking a TOEIC class, ask your teacher to bring in extra homework help on problems like these.If you are studying by yourself, find a good reference book in the library and look up your question.There may also be help on the Internet.For example, type “gerunds” into a search engine and you will probably find a useful exercise.Eliminate distractors

In every TOEIC question, there are at least two distractors(wrong answers that the test writer uses to trick you).It is much easier to choose the correct answer when you have only two to choose from.(The third choice is often impossible and easy to spot.)There are many types of distractors such as, similar sounds, homonyms, repeated words, etc.As you study, make yourself a list of distractors.When you come across them you will be able to eliminate them more easily.Trust your instincts

Sometimes an answer will jump out at you as either correct or incorrect.If you have been studying hard, chances are that your brain is telling you which choice to pick.Don't change your answers after following your instinct.If you do decide to change an answer, make sure that you erase very carefully.A machine will be marking your test.Be sure to use a pencil and fill in your circle choice completely.Bring extra pencils, erasers, and a pencil sharpener!Don't try to translate

Translating vocabulary and sentences wastes a lot of time.It is very rare that students have extra time during the TOEIC test.If you don't know a word, look at the context of the sentence and the words around it.You will not be allowed to use a dictionary when you take the test.10.Guess as a last resort

On test day, if you don't know the answer, and you have eliminated all of the distractors you can, don't leave the space blank.There is a good chance you will not have time to go back to this question.You still have a 25% chance of getting the answer right if you guess.If you are sure that one or two of the answers are incorrect, your guess is even more likely to be correct!11.Be aware of time management

When you are doing practice tests, you should always be aware of the time.Never allow yourself an open ended study session.You will have to learn to work efficiently.On test day, you should be especially careful in the Reading section.You will have 75 minutes to complete Parts V, VI and VII.Many students spend too long on section V or VI because they find these the most difficult.Don't spend more than 30 minutes on the first two parts.Part VII will take you at least 40 minutes, and it is worth a lot of points, especially if you find it an easier section.12.Listen quickly

When you are studying for the TOEIC test, do not get in the habit of rewinding the tape.On test day you won't have any control over the speed of the listening section.You will not even have time to think for very long between questions.Make sure that you do not get behind during the real test.If you do not know the answer, take your best guess.Then continue to follow along.Don't look back at questions when you are waiting for another question to start.13.Practise reading aloud

Reading out loud will help your listening and reading comprehension skills.In order to comprehend English more quickly, it is important that you understand the rhythm of the language.Read from textbooks, pamphlets, newspapers, and even children's novels.You might want to tape yourself and listen to how you sound.14.Use mass media

One of the best ways to prepare for the TOEIC test is to study real English.Watch television, listen to radio reports, and read newspapers and magazines.Pay special attention to ads, letters, weather and traffic reports, coupons, and special announcements.Do this with a friend, and write out questions for each other to answer.This is a great way to practice your wh-questions.It is also a great way to learn common idiomatic expressions.15.Use free web sites

There are many web sites that offer free model tests and samples.Type TOEIC into your search engine and start practising!Surfing the web is a great way to practise your reading and listening.If you are interested in a certain topic, such as snowboarding, type that into a search engine.You might want to reserve an hour a day for Internet studying.Just make sure to study English and don't get caught wasting hours playing games!

16.Teach a native English speaker your language

If you can't afford a tutor, you might know a native English speaker who would be interested in learning your first language.Tell him you will teach him for free for one hour a week!You will have to use English to teach him, and you will learn many new English words and expressions at each session.Forcing yourself to teach someone a language will help you to understand English grammatical rules as well.Do anything you can to speak with native English speakers.17.Keep an English journal

Keeping a journal doesn't have to be an account of your daily activities.You can write anything in a journal, such as how your studying is coming along, what your new favourite word is and why, or which teacher you admire.If you are studying TOEIC with a friend, make a list of writing topics for each other.You might decide to write a paragraph three times a week.Get your friend to try to find your mistakes.Finding your partner's writing errors is great practice for Part V and VI.18.Ask questions

Never hesitate to ask lots of questions.In a TOEIC class, all of the students will benefit from your question.If you don't understand something, such as conditionals, you may lose ten points on a TOEIC exam.A teacher is not always available, but students are everywhere!Sometimes other students can help you with a grammar problem even better than a teacher.19.Manage your stress

If you are feeling stressed about taking the TOEIC you may be studying too hard or expecting too much of yourself.Like everything else in life, balance is the key.Remind yourself that you will try to do your best.Before the test, take deep breaths and remember that you can always improve your score in a few months time.In between the listening and reading section, take a few deep breaths again to get focused.20.Don't cram

You should never cram(study extremely hard in a short period of time)the night or even week before the TOEIC test.There is so much to learn when you study the TOEIC.The last week should be for reviewing and practising rather than learning new things.Make sure to get plenty of sleep the night before the test.On the day of the test, have a good meal and relax for a few hours before going to the testing centre.Plan to reward yourself when the test is over!
