EFFECTS OF OVER POPULATION IN MEXICO

4

It is a fact that day by day population in Mexico is increasing, and this causes many social, 5

6

economic, and pollution problems. The main purpose of this essay is to discuss the three 7

main effects of overpopulation in Mexico.

The first major effect of overpopulation in Mexico is unemployment. First of all, there

8

9

aren't enough sources of jobs in Mexico, so only the most prepared people get a job. This 10

is a great social and economic problem because people who do not work get frustrated

and cannot support their families.

11

12

The second effect of overpopulation in Mexico is the low quality of public services.

13

Natural resources, like water or food, are not enough for so many people, so there is a lot 14

of thirst and hunger in the country. Also, the level of education is quite low because there 15

are a lot of children or young people who must study, and there are not enough schools or 16

teachers. The same happens with health; hospitals are not capable of giving attention to all the people who need it, so there are a lot of diseases.

17

18

The most significant effect of overpopulation in Mexico is the high level of pollution.

19

Due to a great number of people must go by car to their jobs at the same time, amazing

20

traffic jams are caused. This, together with the noise caused by cars and people, causes a 21

great amount of pollution. Also, every day people generate a lot of trash, and this pollutes 22

both water and ground.

23

All the effects of over population that I have said make a cycle. For example, pollution

24

causes diseases, and these diseases cannot be attended because of the insufficient

25

hospitals. That is why I am of the opinion that we must find a way to organize all the

people who live in this country, so we could live in a better environment and have a better

26

27

quality of life. We must also learn to take care of the natural resources and think of those 28

who are coming. If we don't stop spending our resources and polluting, the next

29

generations will have a huge problem. Finally, I am of the opinion that Mexico needs to 30

generate more sources of jobs, so everybody can work and satisfy their needs.

202X年英国笔试申请全面解读.doc

202X年英国笔试申请全面解读 我们都知道,通常情况下,申请英国的博士是比较难难而且过程也是比较复杂的。为什么呢?下面来说说202X年英国笔试申请全面解读,一起来看。 一、申请英国博士的五大步骤: 1、选择学校: 通常情况下,可以选择五到十个意向学校,档次要拉开,主次要分清。可以参考QS世界排名或泰晤士专业排名来选择。 2、选择导师套磁: 套磁要有一定的针对性,对你本专业方向有可能的导师是哪些心中有数,特别是自己硕士所在领域的导师。选定意向导师之后就可以套磁了,向导师写邮件表达读博愿望,邮件内容尽量简洁、明了,介绍学生基本情况,感兴趣的研究方向和计划,学生的研究成果等信息。另外附带上研究计划,如果老师对你有兴趣,这个项目也还没有关闭的话,老师会联系你,可能让你去见见他聊一聊,或者通过电话,网络的形式对你进行面试。 此时需要注意一点的是,同一个学校的一个系不要同时联系两个或以上导师,否则会显得诚意不够,不用担心你联系的这个是否是最合适的,英国的博士生导师通常会把你的申请转给他认为最合适的人,因为学校也需要招到好的博士生,所以对申请者一般都会比较慎重。 3、面试: 申请时最紧张的莫过于这个面试环节了,面试的时候,老师可能会就你资料中做过的相关研究来问你问题,一定要事先做好充分准备。其次,对于之后要研究的东西最好也能先有一定的了解,免得老师提到你对这个项目以后研究看法的时候一问三不知,就很尴尬了。 4、学校网站填申请表:

需要的材料一般除之前跟导师套磁是的research proposal外,其他都跟申请硕士很类似,通常包括:1)CV (Curriculum Vitae) 个人简历2)PS (PersonalStatement) 个人陈述3)Degree Certificate 学位证 4)University Tran 成绩单5)English LanguageCertificate 语言成绩证明6)Reference letters 推荐信两封7)Research Proposal 研究计划 5、申请奖学金 英国留学博士的奖学金算得上是种类繁多。 首先是national level的奖学金,是面向所有非欧盟的留学生的。申请难度很大,要通学院,学校和政府过三轮筛选,因此竞争非常激烈,英国大学把这几个名额当作是个荣誉,所以如果拿到,很多大学都会把本国学生的那部分学费补齐,所以其实也可以算全奖了。其次是一些着名人物冠名的奖学金,每个学校都有一些,学校之间有相同的,也有不同的,有的只面向欧盟学生,有的面向国际学生,自己要看清楚具体条款。很多学校也有自己冠名的奖学金,名称多为University of xxx postgraduate research scholarship。另外一些是researchcouncil的博士生资助计划,譬如AHRC Block Grant Partnership DoctoralStudentship。这些的信息都在每个学校自己的网站上有详细介绍,申请方法,截止时间等等。 二、去英国读博士的六大优势: 1、作为留英的主要途径,容易拿永居 除了投资移民以外,目前在英国读博士已经成为了留英最主要的途径之一。对于之前已经在英国读书超过4-5年的同学,读博可以将签证时间提高到10年,进而拿到英国永久居民。对于之前没有在英国读书的学生,博士毕业以后可以拿到一年的工作签证,以留英找工作。而且目前英国基本所有高校都有雇佣外国员工的资格,因此毕业后进入高校做博士后或者讲师,可直接拿到Tier 2工作签证,满五年后即可获得英国永久居民。

TOEFL听力段子十大黄金原则

TOEFL听力段子十大黄金原则 1.听见什么,选什么原则 该原则为“TOEFL听力段子十大黄金原则”之首,因为其它九大原则都建立在它的基础之上。 2.重复原则 听段子时,要特别注意那些“重复率高的词或概念”。因为重复率高的东西容易引起我们听者的注意。毕竟托福的测试对象是我们这些把英语作为第二语言的人,所以ETS 的考点也只能是那些对我们而言,通过努力能听懂的地方。 Bonus: 段子中“重复率最高的词或概念”很可能就是这个段子的主题(TOPIC)。 3.建议原则 听段子时,要特别注意那些“含有建议含义的词或结构”。因为无论段子还是对话,建议的地方永远做考点。 Multiply: 历年TOEFL听力段子中最常考的建议类结构汇编: 1) You should 2) I suggest / I propose / I recommend 3) proposal / tips / suggestion / advice/ recommedation 4) had better do sth. / be better off doing sth. 5)How about…? / What about…? 6)Why not…? / Why don’t you…? 7)If I were you, I would…/ I wouldn’t… 8)Would it make things go faster if you…? 9)Maybe / Perhaps you… 10) How does … sound? 4.强调原则 乍听上去,强调原则显得很笼统。其实具体可分为两大类:语义强调和语气、语调强调。 语义强调包括含义强调、解释强调、举例强调、级别强调、结论强调、对比强调等六种。 语气、语调强调包括重音强调、停顿强调、清晰强调等三种。 下面我们就来一一论述,先讲“语义强调的六大分支”。 1)含义强调: 听段子时,要特别注意那些“本身含义上就给我们以震撼或触动的词或结构”。比如:“Especially”一词后面的内容一定是考点,因为它本身就表示“尤其是”,体现了ETS的“求异思想”。再比如:“new theory”周围也一定存在考点,因为这体现了ETS的“求新思想”。有时ETS为强调某事,还特意用一些极其显而易见的表达方式提醒我们,例如:“indeed(真正得)”、“certainly(当然)”、“Just remember (一定要记住)”、“And again.(再说一遍)”、“special feature(特殊的特征)”、“Most importantly(最为重要的是)”、“One thing I should mention(我应该提及的是……)”、“Make / Be sure to…(一定要……)”等等。更多的含义强调词还靠大家自己积累和体会。 2)解释强调: 听段子时,要特别注意那些“本身含义上带有解释性质的词或结构”。比如:“…,

2020年英国博士留学套磁攻略.doc

2020年英国博士留学套磁攻略 英国地处欧洲西岸,地理位置优越,每年都吸引着大量来自世界各地的留学生。那么在英国读博士怎样准备套磁信呢?跟着,一起看看2020年英国博士留学套磁攻略,希望对大家有所帮助。 套磁流程 1、确定研究方向 我们在申请博士之前,首先自己要有一个大的目标方向,然后根据这个方向,去看大学开设的博士课程里面有没有你喜欢的方向,然后根据教授的论文,研究方向等看看准备下一步的 Proposal。 2、准备研究计划书 不同于美国,直接在邮件套磁的时候正文里面写套磁内容,英国一般都要先提交研究计划书给导师,导师看了之后如果有兴趣的话,就会回复你,如果不感兴趣的话,直接说No,或者英国的老师很好,会给你建议,哪个导师更适合你。 3、给导师写邮件 我们准备好计划书以后就进行到非常重要的一步了,就是给导师写邮件。告知导师你的情况,研究方向等,看看导师是否感兴趣。 这个时候就要强调一下,如果我们之前做做了功课,针对老师的研究方向写Proposal的话,那么你的研究计划很容易被老师看到并且采纳。套磁成功的可能性也比较大。 4、收到回复 最后分享一个套磁成功的邮件,基本上,如果老师这样回复你的话,那么恭喜你,你就很有可能被录取啦! 套磁准备 首先是选择导师。

这也是相对消耗时间的一步。需要有一定的针对性,选定每个导师的研究方向。此举旨在做到对你专业方向有可能的导师是哪些心中有数,特别是自己硕士所在领域的导师。 此时可以开始于意向导师套磁,必要时向导师表达读博愿望,邮件内容尽量简洁、明了,介绍学生基本情况,感兴趣的研究方向和计划,学生的研究成果等信息。另外附带上研究计划(research proposal),内容包括background, research questions, methods, expected outcome and timetable, references。 要是老师对你有兴趣,这个项目也还没有关闭的话,老师会联系你,可能让你去见见他聊一聊,或者通过电话,网络的形式对你进行面试,再或者问你要更多关于你的资料。 申请时最紧张的莫过于这个面试环节了,其实想想一旦申请上以后天天都要面对这个老师也就没什么好紧张的了。 初次面试时如果担心自己语无伦次或者很多东西不好表达时,可以把自己的资料都打印出来,或者做一个简单的PPT,重点突出自己的优势,也免去跟老师四目相对不知该说什么的尴尬。面试的时候,老师可能会就你资料中做过的相关研究来问你问题,一定要事先做好充分准备。 其次,了解研究项目。 对于之后要研究的东西最好也能先有一定的了解,免得老师提到你对这个项目以后研究看法的时候一问三不知,就很尴尬了。 此时需要注意一点的是,同一个学校的一个系不要同时联系两个或以上导师,否则会显得诚意不够,不用担心你联系的这个是否是最合适的,英国的博士生导师通常会把你的申请转给他认为最合适的人,因为学校也需要招到好的博士生,所以对申请者一般都会比较慎重。 第三,联系好导师之后,便可去学校网站填申请表。 需要的材料一般除之前跟导师套磁是的research proposal外,其他都跟申请硕士很类似,通常包括:CV (Curriculum Vitae)、个人简历

申请成功了的博士方案(PHD proposal)

PHD Research Proposal Title: The Extent of Guanxi between Chinese Suppliers and Their Western Customers Submitted by: Terry Ji Ruan

Table of Contents of this Proposal 1. Introduction 2. Aims and objectives 3. Topics justification/scope and limitations 4. Literature review 5. Methodology and data collection 6. Proposed development Bibliography

1. Introduction China started its economic reform since 1979 and now becomes the second biggest economy in the world due to the dramatic rise of Chinese economic development. More and more attentions have been focused on how the Chinese do business and how to cooperate with them through culture. Likewise, as for the Chinese businessmen, they are facing the outside word and need to learn more about other cultures. Therefore, Intercultural business communication becomes a big issue during the rising of the Chinese economic development. Owing to the Chinese culture, Chinese businessmen spend a lot of time and money on establishing personal relationship with the domestic customers, which is called guanxi in China. Guanxi, a phase from Chinese PinYing, can be roughly translated as personal ties, which presents the totality of the relationship between two persons. It is so complicated and quite different from the Western business relationship (So and Walker, 2006). In international business section, do the Chinese people do the same way as they do to their domestic customers? And does guanxi work? Because when we talk about guanxi, it usually refers to the relationship among the Chinese. In China, when a person has a lot of powerful guanxi, it will be easier for him or her to succeed in business. As for the international business section, is it conducive to the sale if the Chinese establish guanxi with their foreign customers by the Chinese ways, like big dinner, valuable gifts and big entertainment? What extent does guanxi exit between them? Most of the researches have focused on guanxi in Chinese society, whereas

托福听力十大黄金原则

托福听力十大黄金原则 第一节TOEFL听力段子十大黄金原则我深信,这十大原则不仅适用于TOEFL听力的段子,也适用于其它比如IELTS,四、六级,考研等考试的听力段子。可以说:一次学会,一劳永逸。 1.听见什么,选什么原则该原则为“TOEFL听力段子十大黄金原则”之首,因为其它九大原则都建立在它的基础之上。 2.重复原则听段子时,要特别注意那些“重复率高的词或概念”。因为重复率高的东西容易引起我们听者的注意。毕竟托福的测试对象是我们这些把英语作为第二语言的人,所以ETS的考点也只能是那些对我们而言,通过努力能听懂的地方。Bonus: 段子中“重复率最高的词或概念”很可能就是这个段子的主题(TOPIC)。 3.建议原则听段子时,要特别注意那些“含有建议含义的词或结构”。因为无论段子还是对话,建议的地方永远做考点。Multiply: 历年TOEFL听力段子中最常考的建议类结构汇编:1)You should 2)I suggest / I propose / I recommend 3)proposal / tips / suggestion / advice/ recommedation 4)had better do sth. / be better off doing sth. 5)How about…? / What about…? 6)Why not…? / Why don’t you…? 7)If I were you, I would…/ I wouldn’t… 8)Would it make things go faster if you…? 9)Maybe / Perhaps you… 10) How does … sound? 4.强调原则乍听上去,强调原则显得很笼统。其实具体可分为两大类:语义强调和语气、语调强调。语义强调包括含义强调、解释强调、举例强调、级别强调、结论强调、对比强调等六种。语气、语调强调包括重音强调、停顿强调、清晰强调等三种。下面我们就来一一论述,先讲“语义强调的六大分支”。 1)含义强调:第一节TOEFL听力段子十大黄金原则听段子时,要特别注意那些“本身含义上就给我们以震撼或触动的词或结构”。比如:“Especially”一词后面的内容一定是考点,因为它本身就表示“尤其是”,体现了ETS的“求异思想”。再比如:“new theory”周围也一定存在考点,因为这体现了ETS的“求新思想”。有时ETS为强调某事,还特意用一些极其显而易见的表达方式提醒我们,例如:“indeed(真正得)”、“certainly(当然)”、“Just remember(一定要记住)”、“And again.(再说一遍)”、“special feature(特殊的特征)”、“Most importantly(最为重要的是)”、“One thing I should mention(我应该提及的是……)”、“Make / Be sure to…(一定要……)”等等。更多的含义强调词还靠大家自己积累和体会。 2)解释强调:听段子时,要特别注意那些“本身含义上带有解释性质的词或结构”。比如:“…, which is / that is…(那就是说……)”显然,“which is / that is…”引导的定语从句是ETS为防止我们考生听不懂前面的内容(生僻的词或概念),而特意添加上去,用来进一步加以解释的。所以这种解释性的定语从句理所当然就成了强调考点所在的重要标志。类似的结构如“What I mean is…”、“All that means is…”等等不胜枚举。 3)举例强调:听段子时,要特别注意那些“带有举例或列举性质的词或结构”。比如:“for example…(例如……)”因为例子总比道理简单易懂得多。ETS清楚地知道:考生明白了后面的举例,自然也就理解了前面的概念,然后再考前面的概念也就顺理成章了。这点显然跟解释原则类似。所以这种举例或列举式的结

托福写作范文5篇合集 备考托福的过程,我们需要多多背诵一些写作的范文,这有助于我们的写作能力提升。下面新通教育小编为大家整理了5篇托福写作范文,希望能为大家托福写作提供帮助。 托福写作范文1. 自主阅读和老师布置阅读任务哪个更重要 Agree or disagree: students do reading by their own is as important as or more important than the reading teachers assigned. Reading is a process of procuring knowledge and the ways of reading vary for students between reading on their own and reading as told by their teachers. As for me, it will be more beneficial to read books in line with students’wishes. For one thing, students should read what they are curious about and can find interests in, which can find wide application among college students in particular. In order to hone one’s talents and crafts with specific purpose, college students will find the more practical books to read to strengthen their competence for their future competing with other rivals in the job market. T ake Steve Jobs as an example. After attending the college just for a few months, he couldn’t figure out how the college life would help him in the future except for imposing his working family enormous financial pressure.Then, he decided to drop out so he could stop taking the required classes and reading the assigned reading materials that did not interest him and began dropping in on the ones that looked interesting. Finally, the 1

英国博士奖学金申请指南.doc

英国博士奖学金申请指南 去往英国留学,大家都知道留学费用可是一笔不少的开支,那么很多的留学生就想申请到奖学金,我了解到,英国的奖学金的种类很多,今天我就详细给大家介绍英国博士奖学金的申请指南。 (图片转自百度) 英国博士奖学金的种类: 1. 导师给的奖学金 导师给奖学金,一般这种情况很少,就算有一般也是针对理工科,但也有些导师从学生里招research assistant,费用来自研究funding。但是社科类和商科的学生貌似是没有哒。 2. 学校给的奖学金 有些学校会有一些奖学金名额,但名额少,要求也相对较高。譬如,伦敦政治经济学院(LSE)有63个博士奖学金名额,不仅英国和欧洲的学生,海外的学生也可以申请,我看到这里已经泪流满面了,真的很少有学校会有oversea student奖学金的名额。LSE 要求有申请者有merit level的学位和research potential的资质。不止LSE,其他院校也是有奖学金名额的,想要申请奖学金的同学们,一定要多方关注,越早越好。 3. 其他机构的奖学金 英国政府奖学金主要由英国“ 工程和物理科学研究委员会”(EPSRC Engineering and Physical Science Research Council)提供,英国各高校院系或者导师会在自己的网站上公布由EPSRC资助的博士项目的空缺。近年来,这类奖学金比较倾向于欧盟国家的学生以及已经在英国读完硕士或者学习多年的学生。这类奖学金一般覆盖学费和生活费,一部分学生仅能申请到免学费。 英国企业(比如劳斯莱斯,空客等)赞助的博士项目德尔奖学金相当于工作薪水,即需要在博士期间完成导师和该企业合作项目的某些内容,

老托福听力93篇(33-34)-Today I want to talk about

老托福听力93篇(33-34)-Today I want to talk about 33 Today I want to talk about the Earth's last major climatic shift, at the end of the last ice age. But first, let's back up a moment and review what we know about climatic change in general. First, we defined "climate" as consistent patterns of weather over significant periods of time. In general, changes in climate occur when the energy balance of the Earth is disturbed. Solar energy enters the Earth's atmosphere as light and is radiated by the Earth's surface as heat. Land, water, and ice each affect this energy exchange differently. The system is so complex that, to date, our best computer models are only crude approximations and are not sophisticated enough to test hypotheses about the causes of climatic change. Of course, that doesn't keep us from speculating. For instance, volcanic activity is one mechanism that might affect climatic change. When large volcanoes erupt, they disperse tons of particles into the upper atmosphere, where the particles then reflect light. Since less light is entering the system of energy exchange, the result would be a cooling of the Earth's surface. Of course, this is just one possible mechanism of global climate change. In all probability, a complete explanation would involve several different mechanisms operating at the same time. 【生词摘录】 1. climatic: adj. connected with the weather in a particular area 气候的 2. ice age: one of the long periods of time, thousands of years ago, when ice covered many northern countries 冰川期,冰河时代 3. consistent: adj. always having the same beliefs, behavior, attitudes, quality etc(信仰、行为、态度、品质等)一贯的,一致的;始终如一的 4. disturb: v. to interrupt someone so that they cannot continue what they are doing by asking a question, making a noise etc 干扰,打扰;使中断 5. radiate: v. if something radiates light or heat, or if light or heat radiates from something, it is sent out in all directions 辐射(光或热);(向四面八方)发射 6. crude: adj. not developed to a high standard or made with great skill 粗制的 7. approximation: n. [C]a number, amount etc that is not exact, but is almost correct 概算,近似值 8. hypothesis: n. [C]plural hypotheses, an idea that is suggested as a possible way of explaining a situation, proving and idea etc, which has not yet been shown to be true 假设,假说 9. speculate: v. to think or talk about the possible causes or effects of something without knowing all the facts or details 猜测,推测 10. disperse: v. if something disperses or is dispersed, it spreads over a wide area(使)消散;(使)分散 11. cooling: n.[U]the process of becoming cooler; a falling temperature 冷却 34 I know you're anxious to get your permits and get started. But there're just a few things I'd like to mention that might help you avoid trouble during your stay. First of all, make sure you carry adequate water. You'll need it if you're hiking, especially in this heat. A good rule of thumb is to bring one gallon per person per day this time of year. Don't try to rely on the park's natural springs to supply all your water needs. And please, do not use soap in the springs. It's your responsibility to protect the park's natural features. For those of you staying beyond the weekend, make sure that you set up camp well away from dry creekbeds. We may get some heavy rainfall, and those creekbeds could quickly

托福写作评分标准

托福写作评分标准公司内部编号:(GOOD-TMMT-MMUT-UUPTY-UUYY-DTTI-

托福写作评分标准托福写作评分包括机器评分以及人工评分两部分: 机器评分E-rater- 语法是否正确、用词是否得当、以及单词拼写及大小写是否准确等方面, 一篇考生的文章会经过两台机器评分。 人工评分通过ETS阅卷人评分,综合写作和独立写作分别有两位阅卷人给出分数。 托福写作原始分数为0-5分,考生得分分为三个level GOOD,FAIR,LIMITED 最终成绩通过两个科目的分数取平均分,再换算为30分制的分数。 详解托福综合写作的评分细则

综合写作是托福写作板块中的其中一项。托福考试的写作部分分为综合(Integrated writing)和独立(Independent writing)两块,这两块分别独立评分,取平均值后得到最终的分数。也就是说,这两个部分各占一半权重,因此应给予相同程度的重视。关于这两部分的了解,强烈建议同学们自己去看看ETS出版的托福考试官方指南(OG),OG里面对于考试形式和评分标准有非常详尽的介绍,有些同学在准备输出端考试(写作或者口语)的时候,居然连评分细则都不看,仅凭自己的主观臆测和对于老师讲解的依稀记忆去打造自己的文章,考不好真的不奇怪。下面,我们就来分析一下托福考试的评分细则。 综合写作的满分要求是: A response at this level successfully selects the important information from the lectu 5分:文章切题,阐说充分,文章有说服力;段落组织有序,衔接紧密,过渡自然,有很强的逻辑性;段落内句与句连接顺畅,句式使用恰当,灵活,娴熟;用词确切,得体。文章中有个别语法拼写错误,但不影响内容表达。 4分:文章切题,阐说基本充分,在某些细节上有缺陷。段落层次组织有序,衔接紧密,过渡自然,逻辑性强;句间连接顺畅,句式使用恰当,灵活;用词基本得体。文章中有少量用词不当和语法拼写错误。 3分:文章切题,阐说尚可,展开不够。段落层次组织有序,衔接紧密,过渡自然,有逻辑性;句间连接基本顺畅;有部分句法错误;用词一般,有时不得体。词性区分和拼写等有若干错误

最新英国博士留学申请,套磁技巧

申请博士不同于本科,除了推荐信、成绩单、PS等申请材料,还有一个很重要的环节就是套磁。下面是出国留学整理的英国留学博士申请套磁技巧,一起来看看吧。 一、什么是套磁? 英国博士是导师制,你能否被录很大程度上取决于导师愿不愿意接收你作他的学生。你提交的上述所有资料是提交申请时需要的资料,在提交申请之前很多院校要求你必须先找到愿意接受你的导师才能递交申请。也有少数院校不要求申请人提前联系导师,但是这样的情况很少。因此,套磁在博士申请中尤为重要,导师有了接收意向,其他事情都迎刃而解。 套磁原本是北京方言,就是搞好关系,套近乎的意思,只是在留学申请中,这个对象就变成了教授。指申请者和申请院校的相关教授通过Email联系,从而增加自己被录取和获得奖学金的机会。 二、套磁内容 1.套磁需要表达哪些内容 最关键的就是让导师知道,申请人对导师正在研究的项目颇感兴趣,对于该项目的理解。让导师知道如果你被录取,可以成为导师很好的助手,最好能提出一些有建设性意义的问题,你对项目的理解和想法如果和导师合拍,那么恭喜你,你就会成为导师要找的对象。 2.凸显个人的价值 如果你的GPA成绩相当优秀,你可以show off一下,但切记不要过分炫耀,因为导师更看重的,是申请人对这个领域了解的认知度。 3.套磁的准备工作 深入了解导师的工作和科研兴趣所在,反复研究导师的论文。不要说空话,最好能提出一些实质性的问题和创意的想法,在哪些方面能对教授的科研进行帮助。 4.套磁的时机 通常在前一年9月就开始着手了。准备的时间越长,和导师的交流就越深入,导师对你的了解也更深入,但是套磁的目的性不要过于明显,要本着学习和交流的态度让导师感觉你是可塑之才,谦虚务实,同时具有严谨的研究态度和科研精神。 三、套磁注意事项

托福听力中你会遇到的10大难题

托福听力中你会遇到的10大难题 托福听力是托福考试中的考试大项,除了阅读之外都和听力有关。那么对于托福考生来说,有哪些问题需要考生注意的呢? 1. 听不清 “听不清”是很多同学开始练习听力时面临的问题,突出表现是听到单词或短语反应不出来。听力考试考察的是单词的听觉形象,所以重要的是单词的发音,意思,而不是单词的拼写。最好从一开始就养成大声朗读英文的习惯,具体而言:短单词注意读准(元音要发得饱满,辅音要发得到位,易混音注意区分),多音节单词要注意重音的位置,短语要注意是否包含连读和失爆等语音现象。 让我们试着读读下列单词: stratigraphy,seismology,planetarium,thermodynamics (长单词重音) inside out, run out of gas (连读),upside down, turned down (失爆),toss and turn (连读+失爆) 2. 听得断断续续 “听得断断续续”突出的表现是句子只能接收到个别单词的意思,无法抓住重点。听段落只记得个别句子,无法抓住主题。这个现象主要由2个原因导致,1 听力长句断句有问题,抓不住意群2 听的材料过短 让我们读一下下面两个长句,试试断句 1. What is interesting is that studies have been done that suggest that the animal’s environment may play a part in determining what kind of behavior it displays。. 2. One of the concrete ways people have been doing this is by cleaning up polluted habitat areas and then replanting flower that humming birds feed on。 听力专业段落中有很多这样的长句,我们可以在做完题之后,挑选一些长句,做做断句练习,看看这个长句可以停顿几次,在哪几个单词后停顿,哪几个单词构成一个完整的意群。托福[微博]听力和阅读练习的一大重点都是长难句的理解。 另外,随着听力段落长度的不断增加,也能有效地帮助我们慢慢地适应从句子层面而不是单个单词层面去理解它 3. 听清楚了,但没明白
