雅思口语5到6.5经验谈
雅思口语备考 不算什么雅思大牛，基础算比较差，口语从5—6.5. 我先分享一下我和我身边的烤鸭在一开始考雅思时，口语存在的一些共性问题。如果你恰好也有这样的问题，也许这篇经验分享对你很有用。 问题： 1. 忐忑的看着上百的口语话题束手无策，总不能背一百多个话题素材吧。 2. 得知其他烤鸭都是背的liuwei、慎小嶷或在淘宝上买来的口语素材，我也跟着盲目的背吧。 3. 每次准备口语都是考试前半个月或者前一个星期，根据高频话题乱背素材。 4. 没有一套科学的口语练习方法，除了死记硬背的背素材好像也别无他法了。 5. 上过各种口语预测班或者突击冲击班（反正就是这个意思吧，告诉你几天就能突破多少分），你把它视为最后一根救命稻草，希望老师上课讲的预测话题能中。 6. 结课后，除了拿到一堆老师美曰其名的原创素材以外，真正有效的学习方法一点都没有。 7. 有多少个高频话题几乎就会背多少套素材，如果P2没考到自己准备的话题，只能跟考官大眼瞪小眼，或者不停的嗯..... 额..... i mean..... 最后以sorry，i don't know结尾. 8. 基本只会准备P1和P2的话题，从来不会去想P3会考什么，该怎么说。 9. 一开始只敢一个人默默的练习，不会找熟人来对练。甚至到考试前，都没有真正的跟人用英语对话交流过。 10. 因为素材背的太多，只要在背的过程中被打断了，就不知道后面该说什么了，彻底哑巴。 11. 知道你背的素材有很多人也在背，但自己就是懒，不愿意自己写素材，总安慰自己点不会那么背，考官应该听不出来。 说说你们中了哪几点或者全中.... 我想说的是，简直是为我量身打造的，我全都有！！全都有！！！ 但是，这样的我都能考6.5分，不是说有多高哈，而是每个人都可以，千万不要怀疑自己的智商。 在说方法之前，我想说一下学口语的几个关键点，只要你能做到，短时间内6 分以上绝对没问题。 1. 一定要多说，如果想短时间内提分一定要找同伴或者外教对练。多说不是多背素材，而是看见一个话题不看任何素材，自己先说，如果第一遍磕巴，那就说到流利为止。然后再看看示范的答案，他们答案的大致方向是什么，再适当的修改一下自己答案就完美了. 2.素材最好自己准备，而且写的越详细越好！！因为可以嫁接话题，根本不需要背几十篇素材，你只需要按人，事，物分别准备1-2篇足矣串所有的高频话题。当然，除了那些比较特别的话题需要单独准备外。
雅思作文7.5分
我用的雅思材料（供参考）: 1 听力：（8分） 1 剑4—7：我把真题的听力听写了两遍。第一遍是全部听写，一开始要听好几遍才能写下来一句话，而且词的单复数也好多不对，一套题就要听写好长时间。由于雅思听力很多填空，单词的准确性极为重要，尤其是单复数很难听准确，所以这样的听写有利于找到听力中的漏洞，找到一些自以为会但写不对的单词，而且单复数听也会比较准确，连读也会听的比较清楚。第一遍听下来我就写了好几本白纸了，很厚一沓~~第二遍主要听写了一下主要意思，写的也比较快。 听力每天都要听，精听和泛听配合，我们老师让我每星期5个BBC或VOA的听（2分多钟的），每篇都写下来，然后找他对原文，找那个地方错了。如果写的困难，可以用ＶＯＡ慢速。泛听挑零碎时间听，最好不要晚上睡觉在床上听，听的睡着的话以后一听见英文就犯困。囧~~ 2 王陆807 听力词汇（黄皮）全部都是要写会的单词噢~ 3 卢峭梅讲雅思听力机经 https://www.360docs.net/doc/283848628.html,/search_pub.php?key=%D1%C5%CB%BC%CC%FD%C1%A6%BB %FA%BE%AD&SearchFromTop=1&catalog=01 2阅读 1剑4--7 有的同学只全部做了一遍，做多了多少会记住答案，但如果阅读不是很好，最好还是做三遍。第一遍：成套做一遍，注意做错的题，必须找到做错的原因（注意不要留下深的印记）同时尽量控制做题时间在50分钟。把真题里不会的单词总结并背会。第二遍：分8大题型做，如把leadings的题目都找出来，集中做一遍，把错题搞明白。8大题型其实都是在找关键词，集中练习有利于快速准确确定关键词并在文章中找到关键词。其中最难的应该是判断false 与not given的题目，需要多练习。8大题型有4个有顺序，4个没顺序。Leadings题型做题时一般取每个段落的前两句的大意，如果段落里有but however等转折词，就取最后一句的意思，而不取第一二句意思。第三遍：成套再做一遍。 2刘洪波的阅读真经（1—4 ） https://www.360docs.net/doc/283848628.html,/search_pub.php?key=%D1%C5%CB%BC%D4%C4%B6%C1%D5% E6%BE%AD&SearchFromTop=1&catalog=01 这个书上的文章跟雅思文章相似度很高，题出的不好，可以用来联系卡时间，文章有时间要精读。

雅思写作经验分享~~从6分到7.5分的漫漫长路_(3.19更新：7分作文+推介书目+自我鼓励的说话)
前言 ?出于对剑桥雅思的爱恨交加，出于对那些需要完成留学梦移民梦的人的感同身受，出于对那些在烤鸭路上屡战屡败屡败屡战的人的精神支持，出于对那些仍在迷茫、仍在盲目背单词、仍在疯狂买参考书、仍在迷恋机经的人的劝勉与鼓励，出于对网络上面所谓出售雅思写作7分资料的虚假广告的无比痛恨，出于对某些所谓名师名校培训机构的不齿不屑，出于那些迷恋习惯背诵范文依赖别人的鸭子们的真诚忠告，出于对那些急需在7月1日之前考到雅思4个7（澳洲会计毕业生，你懂的）的人的理解和帮助，出于上天对我的眷顾和怜悯，出于·········出于因为我曾经也是这么一种人，也是有这么一种经历，我决定，无偿地，毫无保留地，完整地分享我在过去三月自己总结的雅思复习计划和资料（本人曾经的弱项是写作和口语（对，是曾经，哈哈！），所以，我的资料绝大多数都是写作和口语）~~~ ?争取写一篇最全最好的雅思写作经验分享，和更多的鸭友们远离全聚德烤鸭店的火海！ 从4年前为了完成踏进悉尼大学的留学梦，到现在努力实现的澳大利亚梦，雅思成为了一个绕不开的情意结。其中走了特别多的弯路，摔了特别多的跤，失去了很多，也收获了很多。从当初的总分6.5而单科不低于6分的大学门槛到现在的A类4个7的独木桥，对于这个来自英国的―老熟人‖，可谓百般滋味在心头。雅思的备考也是一种―被烤‖，在烤鸭过程中，一不小心，有可能首先被这只鸭给烤焦了。焦虑，迷茫，急躁，失落，绝望，期待，紧张，亢奋，XX失调等所有更年期综合症状都会在备考的过程中轮番上映。 从2010年12月到2011年2月底，我一共参加了4次雅思考试(12月11日，1月22日，2月12日和2月26日)，成绩为： 12月11日：听力：7.0，阅读：6.5，写作：6.0，口语：6.0 01月22日：听力：6.5，阅读：7.0，写作：6.0，口语：7.0 02月12日：听力：7.0，阅读：7.5，写作：6.5，口语：8.5 02月26日：听力：7.0，阅读：7.5，写作：7.5，口语：7.0 03月05日：听力：7.0，阅读：7.5，写作：7.0，口语：8.0 可以说，在过去的三个月里面，我感受过裸考过后无言以对的惶恐，体味过努力过后略有进步的喜悦，忍受着就差0.5、与目标无比接近却未能接近的失落，最后，苦尽甘来。因为这次考试，至少再一次让我确信‖天道酬勤―。NO SWEAT, NO SWEET; NO PAIN, NO GAIN。
备战雅思-经验总结全
我的雅思经验谈 M 2012.8.4 昨晚查了雅思成绩，L7R8.5W6S6，总成绩7（7月21号北语）。对我的水平来说，还算不错的成绩吧，不过我觉得单项有点低，全靠阅读超水平发挥，其他三项都没有达到我的预期目标。之前就下决心，如果考试过了7，就也像其他考鸭一样，写写经验，现在如愿以偿了，我就来总结一下，毕竟准备雅思的这几个月还是有很多回忆的，很难忘的一段经历吧，我觉得在最后的一个月，我拿出了准备高考的劲头来准备，所以如果考的不理想，我心里还是会很不舒服的，现在的结果还好吧，没有太差。 备考的过程中我走了很多弯路，也有一些经验教训，所以拿出来跟大家分享一下，希望大家把它做为一个前车之鉴，不要走同样的弯路了。主要从以下几个方面来说说： 1时间安排参考书目准备策略 我是4月1号下定决心报考雅思的，本打算用两个多月的时间准备，六月份考完，可是因为六月份听说要开题，怕时间来不及所以最后报了7月21号的。这段期间，基本没有什么重要的事情，我主要的精力都放在了雅思上边。开始的时候一点都不知道雅思到底是什么，只知道听说读写都要考，我觉得我的英语水平属于中等，也很喜欢学习英语，所以我觉得三个月的时间足够了。不过最后一个月的时候，我才发现，我有点高估自己了。因为我开始定的目标是7.5分，L&R8分以上，W&S7分以上。可是练习的时候才发现真的很差劲，只是觉得雅思真的是对英语能力的考验，单纯的想通过技巧得高分是不可能的，必须要有一定的英语能力基础。 闲话少说，我按照我的备考时间规划来详细说一说我是怎么准备的： 1.1前期：201 2.4.1-5.1——了解雅思是什么，看经验贴，选择适合自己的参考书籍。 首先是网上了解雅思，我主要就看了雅思的官网，大致了解了一下。然后人人网的雅思主页，大家都尊称“雅思哥”的主页，看了一些经验、介绍，还有在百度搜索了一些资料。然后我根据其他人的经验，去图书馆借阅他们提到的书籍，根据自己的喜好，做出取舍。（PS：我准备雅思没有买一本书，基本都是从图书馆借的，觉得自己很幸运。）准备的过程中觉得王陆老师和慎小嶷老师的博客也不错，不过时间紧迫，开始的时候也不知道，就没有看。时间充分的同学看看。 这段时间主要还是提高自己的能力，因为好久没有学习英语了，就是偶尔看看外文电影，培养下语感，其他时候都没怎么看过书了。我就在这段时间每天抽一定时间练练听力啊之类，主要提高自己的英语能力，这段时间先没有做真题。 经过我自己挑选，觉得还不错，或者我使用过的书有： 剑桥雅思真题4-8，必不可少，最后冲刺的时候每天必看的。（我没有买书，就是用电子版打印的，从同学那拷的听力） 剑桥雅思真题全解。只做题，不对题，或者不知道自己错在哪、为什么错，还不如不做。所以必须也要有配套的全解。喜欢用电子版的也可以用电子版，我是喜欢看纸质版的，所以
雅思大作文开篇如何让人眼前一亮
雅思大作文开篇如何让人眼前一亮 雅思写作除了词汇量要达到以外，还有很多提分点的哦。出guo 为雅思栏目大家带来雅思大作文开篇如何让人眼前一亮，希望对大家备考雅思有所帮助! 正所谓好的开始是成功的一半，雅思大作文的写作也一次次验证了这个道理。很多同学往往不重视雅思大作文开头段的写作，只是简单套用一些现成的模板，殊不知这样已经给考官留下“背诵模板”的印象，这样一来，不仅给后面的主体段带来了巨大压力，而且人的第一印象往往是很难改变的。大作文开头段往往要包含如下几个关键内容，即，介绍背景，引出有争议的话题，阐述对立观点和陈述作者自己的观点。无论使用还是不使用模板，这几个关键信息是一定要包含在开头段落当中的，不然云里雾里，只能是适得其反。 根据这些信息，备战过的考生们一定都熟悉下面这一套开头写作流程，首先It is quite mon these days...介绍背景，或者用The issue of ... is a plex and sensitive one.这样的句型来引出有争议话题，然后千篇一律地分别介绍对立双方观点，如Some individuals believe that..., while others hold the view that...最终用Personally, I agree with...至此，内容上完美无
瑕，但恐怕考官心中已经大大打下“模板”两个字的烙印，这无疑对于想取得6分及以上的同学最不利的事情。 例如，一道雅思写作高频题目，讨论到底大学应该教授实用性课程(如计算机和商科课程)还是传统课程(如历史和地理)。我们依然按照开头段应该包含的关键信息开始写作，但是却可以这样轻松突破：These day there is a growing tendency for college students to have difficulties in finding jobs when they graduate.(介绍背景)A large number of people hold the opinion that lack of practical knowledge, among other things, contributes to this situation. In light of this, they contend that college teachers should lay more stress on practical courses than on traditional ones. (引出有争议的话题，并阐述大多数人的观点)For my part, I am in favour of their viewpoint.(作者观点)这一段写得非常灵巧，第一句结合题目背景，介绍现如今有一种趋势，即大学毕业生很难找到工作，紧接着作者陈述有许多人认为这是由于学生缺少实用性的知识，并因此提出大学应该更多关注于教授实用性的知识，这一句将有争议话题的其中一方观点用因果链条清晰阐述。最后一句表达作者自己的立场，就是支持前面大多数人的想法。总的来看，这一段只提及了对立双方的其中一方观点，然后表达自己支持这一方观点。这就是一种对于开头段模板的超越，简单可行，只对其中一方观点清晰论
