第一篇:英語專業(yè)八級復習聽力的方法
英語專業(yè)八級復習聽力的方法,思路。
來自網友,可能對準備英語專業(yè)八級的聽力題的你,對于想提高英語專八聽力成績的你有所幫助。
在09年5月27日這天終于知道了自己專八過了,說實話成績出來的時候挺詫異的,沒想到能考到76分(本人是一個二本類院校,但本校的英語專業(yè)實力并不強,從軟件到硬件),之前自己估分的時候也就是55-63之間,真沒想到能拿到這樣的高分。雖然是二戰(zhàn)(一戰(zhàn)考了54,一個不上不下的分數),專八的重要性不言而喻,它關系到你的就業(yè),關系到你能找到一個什么樣的工作,他還可能關系到你的一生。
這話說得雖然有點危言聳聽,但大家仔細想想,難道不是么?英語專業(yè)的沒有過八級,和非英語專業(yè)沒有過四級有區(qū)別嗎?一戰(zhàn)之所以沒有考過,原因之一就是重視度不夠,沒有充分的給予重視,所以才考了這樣一個分數,從一戰(zhàn)到二戰(zhàn),我經歷的太多太多,之中的艱辛恐怕只有認真準備八級的戰(zhàn)友們才能深切體會到,但不管怎么說,我想對無論是一戰(zhàn)還是二戰(zhàn)通過八級的同學們說,你們都是自己的英雄(買答案的同學就靠邊站吧,我的這些經驗對你們毫無用處,那些勤勤懇懇苦學四年的同學可能沒過,而那些靠投機取巧考試作弊的同學卻通過了八級,這對他們來說是不公平的。那種買答案的雞賊做法,本人極為反感,如有得罪,請見諒,因為這種經驗貼,就不是為這種人寫的)。
下面是我的一些備考經歷,也希望與即將參加2010年的學弟學妹們共勉。下面我將來談一談如何備考復習專八(TEM8)。
專八的復習最好能超過60天,我當時就只復習了54天,從09年考研完到3月7號,時間不多,感覺時間還是緊巴巴的,所以大四不考研的同學一定要每天都著手準備,因為專八考得范圍比較廣,不像四六級。那么考研的同學,對于你們的建議是,即使專業(yè)課要花很多時間去準備,那么最好每天也能抽出半小時到一小時來看專八(無論是背專八單詞,還是聽專八聽力),考完研后一定要投入到專八的復習中來,即使你多么不情愿的對待專八,即使你有多么的懈怠,也要進行專八的復習了,否則再晚肯定是過不了。
你不是想得到那個小紅本本嗎,那就行動起來吧!千萬不要因為自己的考研把專八放下,我第一次沒有過就是因為考研的問題,當初研究生沒考上,專八沒過,郁悶到了極點,所以時間的問題大家要合理安排好。直到今年才過了專八,也考上了一所外語類院校的研究生,總算是圓了倆個最大的心愿。
第一部分,英語專業(yè)八級的聽力復習思路、技巧方法。
首先聽力分為三部分,說實話這部分確實挺讓人撓頭的,一戰(zhàn)的時候是從十月份的時候開始準備的,當時一邊考研,一邊準備八級,所以時間也很緊,只能是每周日花一個上午做聽力,這樣的備考可想而知,用高翻的話說,tape hours明顯不夠,就是缺練。準備二戰(zhàn)是從09年1月12號開始的(考完研后的第二天),所以在第二年備考的時候每天上午都要做兩小時的聽力,然后晚上頭睡前(12點--12點半)再聽半小時的央視九的英語新聞,這樣練習很有效。剛開始的時候大家可以先開始分專項練習,這就好比練體操的運動員,要從分解動作練起,準備八級也是如出一轍,分項練習都準備好了,心里也就有底了嘛。
1.專八聽力首先是Mini-lecture部分,這是個確實讓人撓頭的部分,剛開始練習的時候正確率比較低,所以大家一定要耐心,多做練習,反復聽,其中做mini的小竅門就是答案大多是名詞居多,然后是形容詞,最后才是動詞。所以大家聽的時候一定要對文章中的名詞和形容詞多留個心眼兒,還有就是一定要把握文章的結構,參考書大家可以選用沖擊波專八系列---聽力填空攻略 >>點此查看。剛開始用這本書來練習,應為書中的答案講得比較詳細(對了,在最后的一部分我會對我使用的參考書做一一評價,大家敬請關注)。練得多了,自然就有感覺了。還有就是速記符號的使用,這個東西因人而異,所以不必拘泥于一種速記符號,只要自己能明白就好,舉例來說,information--info,但是大家千萬不要陷入到這樣一個誤區(qū),就是光想著速記,而忘了你使用這些符號的目的,為的就是得分嘛,所以在聽的時候要有個模糊的general idea,通過大約一個月左右的訓練,基本上可以達到四五個的正確率了。如果說mini部分的難度值是9的話,那么下面部分的難度值就會直線下降,但是大家依然還是要給與高度重視,因為這是八級考試。
2.英語專業(yè)八級第二部分是Conversation。大家在聽的時候,一定要提前讀題,這不僅包括要讀題的題干,還要讀題的選項。大家也許會問,在以前的英語考試中,老師只讓我們讀題干啊,說不用讀的選項阿?那么我告訴你,這是八級考試,不是大英四六級,所以每個選項都要看,看的時候要標記每個選項的主題詞,當然還包括題干的反正意(即到底這句話是肯定的?還是否定的?),尤其要注意提干中的NOT,EXCEPT,INCORRECT,WHY,HOW等詞,這樣的詞在每年的考試中都幾乎出現2-3個,具體可以參看歷年試題。
所以做conversation的方法就是,看清題干,看清選項主題詞,做出選擇!只要大家每天都堅持練習,相信此部分不會丟很多分,這部分是送分題,可能會有一兩個拿不準的,無論是聽力,還是閱讀,歷年試題中答案都有模棱倆可的答案和解析,這也是很多人質疑八級考試可信度的原因。說句公道話,就即使是那些上外的老師,也不見得能把八級考的多好。之前看到hjenglish上一個叫周玉亮的老師,說他八級考優(yōu)秀,09年考完后提供的答案,不是那么的.....所以可能這也是八級考試的難度所在,即使是老師們也不見得能把他考的多好,所以同學們要有信心!穩(wěn)扎穩(wěn)打才是王道,基礎才是王道!
3.TEM8最后是聽力的news部分,方法前邊已經說過,按照做conversation的辦法來攻克news也一定沒問題,關鍵就是要考前看題,有的同學說沒有時間看題,其實大家可以利用mini聽完后的時間,想必大家用10鐘來答mini的時間是綽綽有余,所以此時最聰明的辦法就是看下邊的題,news的速度可能有些快,所以看完選項后才能更有目的的聽!

Is sound social environment good to the development of people
When it comes to the relationship of environment and people to be good to others, different men often see the same object in different lights.Some people
that our current society provides a “bad environment” for good
people doing good things, and it is surely that a sound social environment is necessary, while others do not think so.Helping others has always been a virtue in traditional Chinese culture, but nowadays many people dare not offer help to those in need, for fear of getting into trouble.The issue has aroused public debate over the climate of morality and credibility, and many people sigh over the moral degeneration.In my opinion, while social environment is necessary for people to be good to others, each individual should try his or her best to do good deeds and be sympathetic with others, instead of waiting for the environment to improve.There is no denying that some tragic events turn out to be traps by people with evil intentions, so people are becoming more risk-conscious and are more wary of traps and deceits.some people even wonder, ?Is our society hostile to good people?? The question may sound ridiculous but many believe
people apparently think so.They believe that our current society provides a bad environment for good people doing good things, and good people pay a high price for being compassionate.In fact, such kind of things only accounts for a pretty small percentage, but massive media coverage makes the situation seem serious.Actually, most people around me are kind, warm-hearted and helpful, and I am quite delighted in their company.So I believe media should pay more attention to publicizing good people and exemplary deeds to enhance our confidence, rather than exposing disgusting behaviors.At the same time, as John Donne puts it, “No man is an island, entire of itself.Every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.” Since everyone of us is a component of the society, it is each individual?s conducts that form social morality.Just imagine it is you who need help, what would you feel if everyone watches indifferently or suspiciously? So, put yourself in other?s position and be sympathetic.If we do nothing but wait for the environment to improve, nothing will happen.Only by removing the fence around our kind consciousness can we reverse the regress of social ethics, and make our world full of warmth and happiness.Therefore, if help is needed, never hesitate to lend a helping hand.It will make you happy and feel better about life.In sum, I contend the idea that while social environment is necessary for people to be good to others, it is each individual?s responsibility to offer help to those in need, and together we build up a more harmonious society.Is sound social environment good to the development of peopleWith the great influence of globalization and rapid development of technology, our work and life has become more and more convenient.In the past few years, our economy has maintaining a high rapid development and to our astonishment, our GDP ranked second all over the world last year.The whole country in general is enjoying a peace and prosperity.However, to some extent, standards of morality are now dropping fast.One of the famous cases recently is that a girl dropped into the manhole and lost because someone who has stolen the manhole covers, which is definitely a tragic for all of the people in our country.Such cases lead heated discussion of the moral consciousness.Is a sound social environment necessary for people to have moral standards and be good to others? As far as I am concerned, I am strongly in support of this view.For one thing, a sound environment is indeed essential for providing an energetic living condition, as we all know, environment plays a vital role in our self-development as every one is a member of the
society in which one is supposed to take part in various activities frequently and cannot escape the influence of it.To me, a sound environment means fair justice, sincere communication, orderly society and harmonious relationship between man and nature in which people can treat each other heart and soul.For another, under a favorable social environment, we are expected to share a stable job, harmonious family and wonderful working atmosphere, thus we have adequate time and energy to learn and enhance the quality of life.With the wide spread of civilization, one will have the awareness of improving their basic essence and trust and good quality will be greatly advocated among the whole society.In this way, there will be no fighting, no cheating and filled with kindness and love.All in all, a positive environment will enable the majority to be a moral citizen.Everyone is suggested to learn to self-management and cultivate a good sense of morality.Striving for an aim of being a noble person and make a contribution to build a stable and prosperous society.

旅游高峰中國旅游景點是否該高收費
Nowadays, with the quick development of economy, we are embracing a tourism boom in China.More and more people want to spend their holidays in some famous tourism attractions and get themselves relaxed.Under this circumstance, whether the price of admission tickets in scenic spots should be charged high becomes a heated topic.In my opinion, the tickets price should be set at an affordable level for most of Chinese people and should not be too expensive, and the following are my reasons: First of all, all the natural and cultural tourism attractions are heritages which belong to the whole Chinese people, as a result, every citizen should have equal access to these spots.And affordable tickets price is a guarantee for this basic right.If the ticket price is too expensive, it actually means that the citizens who have lower income are deprived of their right to these places of interest.Secondly, tourism can make an important contribution to economic development, since tourism can create employment opportunities and boost the local economy.In this regard, affordable tickets price will help to attract more visitors and better finance the local economy as well as finance the protection of cultural and natural heritage.The last but not least, tourism helps to keep traditions alive and increase visitor appreciation of the natural and cultural heritage, which will give them a sense of national pride.Hence, affordable tickets price will provide this chance for most Chinese people instead of just the rich ones, and this is beneficial to the whole nation.All in all, affordable tickets price in scenic spots is beneficial to both the development of tourism and the development of local and national economy, and it is a wise decision to set the tickets price at an affordable level.
第五篇:英語專業(yè)八級練習題精選
DDT, the most powerful pesticide the world had ever known,exposed nature’s vulnerability.Unlike most pesticides, which effect-__1__ tiveness is limited to destroy one or two types of insects, DDT is __2__ capable of killing hundreds of different kinds at once.Developed in 1939, it first distinguished itself during the World War II, cleaning __3__ South Pacific islands of malaria-caused insects for U.S.troops, while __4__in Europe being used as an effective de-lousing power.Its inventor was awarded by the Nobel Prize.__5__ When DDT became available for civilian use in 1945, there were only a few people who expressed the second thought about this __6__ new miracle compound.One was nature writer Edwin Way Teale,who warned, “A spray as discriminate as DDT can upset the economy __7__ of nature of all insects are good, but if they are killed, things __8__ go out of kilter right away.” Another was Rachel Carson, who wrote to the Reader’s Digest to propose an article about series of __9__ tests on DDT being conducted not far from which she lived in Maryland.__10__
答案:
1.which—whose。whose在這里作關系限定詞,與effectiveness構成名次詞組在關系分句里作主語。whose的主語可以是人,也可以是物。
2.destroy—destroying。be limited to 詞組里的to并不是不定式標記to,而是介詞to,要謹訪介詞to“冒充”不定式to。其他類似的詞組還有be opposed to, object to, get used to等等。考試大
3.cleaning—clearing。clean和clear這對形近而且意近的動詞容易被混淆,但是clean指“使某地方沒有灰塵,使干凈”,而clear強調“清理不需要的東西,而且clear 可與of連用,而clean很少。(這兩個詞的改錯之前也有遇到過,大家都要記住啦!)
4.caused—causing。此句中malaria-causing insects 相當于insects that caused malaria,因此是主動關系,所以應選擇-ing形式。
5.by-/。the Nobel Prize實際上是award的另一個賓語,還原成主動結構是…awarded the inventor the Nobel Prize.所以這里應刪掉by。
6.the-/。短語second thought或second thoughts意為“仔細斟酌,三思”,如:Robert didn’t give a second thought to borrowing $2,000 from him.7.discriminate-indiscriminate。discriminate有“區(qū)別”之意,indiscriminate意為“不加以選擇,不分青紅皂白”。從上下文來看DDT的特點是沒有分辨性:它既能殺死有害的昆蟲又能殺死有益的昆蟲。
8.but-and/so。本句的兩個意群的關系是順接,不是轉折,因此應選用順接的連詞,如and和so等。
9.^series-a。series這個名詞屬于單數復數同形,它經常與a和of構成詞組a series of表示“一系列的”。
10.which-where。from這個介詞后面應接一個介詞表具體方位,因此這里只能用表方位的副詞where。
