12.1考情回顾||17年的考试不多了,ETS你要珍惜我

2017-12-02 TOEFL托福备考

12月的第一次

必然是不平凡的一次

有同学惨烈的遇到加试

罢特有同学遇到听力TPO题?

emmm,

需要抱老师大腿的同学

寄几点击最下方阅读原文,

下面考情开始!



口语部分
Speaking

Task1

A friend of yours does a part-time job in arestaurant in the evening recently to earn money for a trip, and he feels tiredin class in the day time. What suggestions would you like to give to thisfriend and why? Include reasons and details to support your response.

 

这个题目在task 5中也能看到类似的,比如有个学生下周有3个paper要交,但是还有part-time job要做,然后有两个解决方案,有一个解决方法给的是跟经理说减少工作时间,这个我们也能用于这道题,另外还可以说提升睡眠质量

1)      reduce working hours

2)      improve the quality of sleep 

Sample answer:

I would like to give him two solutions.

The first one is to reduce his workinghours because as a student the main goal is study. I think he should talk tothe manager for shorter working time to guarantee at least 7 to 8 hours sleepper day. 8 hours’ sleep is a must for high efficiency study.

The second one is to practice meditatingwhich is a perfect way to help improve the quality of sleep. I recommend him toclear his mind by meditating 15-20 minutes before he hits the sack. Mediationhelps reduce stress and may even reduce cortisol levels.

Task2

Some students prefer to attend a universityor college in their hometowns. Other students prefer to attend a university orcollege in a new city or town. Which way do you prefer and why? Include detailsand examples in your explanation.

 

这道题其实是一道老题,家里家外的话题,常见的思路有:

新地方:开阔眼见增长见识,锻炼独立性,认识新朋友

老地方:方便,可以与家人朋友保持联系

Sample answer:

Well, as for me, I will never miss anopportunity to study and live in a new place. It seems so appealing to me. Imean, I can explore the new place and experience a totally different life.Like, last year, I participated in a summer school in America and lived therefor a short period of time. During that time, I tried various foods like pumpkinpie and California rolls, and I played football with my friends there, which Ihave rare chance to do in my hometown. Thanks to this opportunity, I realized how diverse lives could be and the more I see, the more open-minded I become.So I do believe the experience like this can broaden my horizon and enrich my life.

综合部分

Task3 

学生建议学校给一年级提供学校到市区的公共汽车服务。原因是: 

1.新生学生没有车;

女生同意,举例说自己当时一年级想去音乐俱乐部但是找不到路

 

Task4

Task5

男生要在学校准备历史paper,但宿舍要关了,他有两个选择:

住朋友家里:无法集中注意力准备历史paper

住教授家里:教授要出去留他看家,但教授家在城外,他又没有车,只能待在家里

 

Task6

古代没有冰箱是如何制冷的。

1.古代中国人把冰般到独立的阴冷的地方,建冰室。

2.古代印度人用水蒸发吸热的原理制冷。

 

备考策略:

我们会发现近期托福独立任务有两个比较明显的趋势,一是旧题频率增大,不仅是近期旧题,甚至几年前的题目也会出现,但是考察的话题却没什么新鲜的,所以大家的备考范围就是真题和常考话题。另外就是综合任务的背景频繁出现,所以综合任务不但要做题,更要精读,吸取好的部分为我们所利用。


写作部分
Writing

独立写作:

题目:

Which way would you like to change to improve your health:the kind of food you eat,or the amount of exercise,the mount of stress.


Intro:  Nowadays, 很多人spend 大部分人都有久坐的sedentary 生活习惯,吃不均衡的 unbalance diets 并且under great pressure 。观点do exercise.


观点一拓展:To begin with, exercise比处理 diet 和stress容易控制. 因为为了有效管理饮食 manage your diet effectively人们需要减少喜欢吃的certain foods 以及创建一个营养均衡规划 create a comprehensive plan that balances your intake of differentnutrients ,这对于大多数人来讲非常难put into practice。管理压力同样困难Managing stress is similarly difficult因为存在太多potential stressors,无法管理所有的压力it may not be plausible to try and manage all of them.  但是Exercise can be effective even when simple. 例如running等。


观点二拓展:做运动有相当大的好处,可以改善心情exercise has the scientifically measurable benefit of improving mood。例如跑步时,大脑释放脑内啡.a rush of endorphins ,能够制造快乐感that produces feelings of euphoria。另外,锻炼使人健康When you're fit,you feel much better about yourself.

 

考情分析与预测:

上次预测提到要关注三选一,的确本场考试三选一如期而至。本次考题属于健康类文章,与官方185题库的128,130题属于一类。接下来要关注品质类文章+教育类文章。

 

As the leader of a city, what would you do to ensure the prosperity and success of the city?

Creating job opportunities for the unemployed

Lowering food price

Providing affordable housing

综合写作

话题:文章说的是某个照片底片属于一个美国摄影家

1.里面有一个悬崖上的松树,据说这个美国摄影家拍过。

2.信封上有手写地名可能是摄影家老婆写的,是他wife的笔迹

3.有些底片有毁损,而这个摄影家的工作室发生过火灾

 

听力反驳:

1.松树是优胜美地国家公园的景点,很多人都拍过

2.信封上的地址拼错了,这个摄影家wife是native resident,不可能拼错 

3. 那时摄影工作室用的东西易燃,很容易发生火灾,很多工作室都发生过火灾,不一定是这个美国摄影家的

阅读部分

Reading



1、Naturalism and Nature in Art

 

自然主义艺术发源于古希腊,崇尚对于景物细致准确的还原,此处举了两个例子:一幅画画的是葡萄,逼真到有鸟过来啄;另一幅画画的是一个非常逼真的挂毯,展现出比上一幅画更卓越的技巧。之后又有人画了一幅画,里面有代表财务的郁金香等等,由此引发了绘画时,是模仿自然好,还是从自然中提取灵感进行创作好。达芬奇认为不应该一味模仿自然,而是要将自然的内在力量外化。


2、The origin of flight

 

文章中阐述鸟类的飞行技能是一步一步进化而来的。最初鸟类的羽毛是用来保温用的,因为内部缺乏稳固的结构所以不能飞翔。之后陈述了三个鸟类学会飞翔的理论。第一个是tree-down theory: 鸟会从树上向下滑行,逐渐发展出羽毛,起到隔热等作用,但如何进化出翅膀并不确定;第二个理论是ground-up theory, 在地上奔跑,利用前肢提供向上的助力,逐渐进化出翅膀,但这种方法所需要的起飞速度远高于现在的爬行类动物最快的奔跑速度;第三种理论是前面两个理论的结合。


 


3、Hermit crab in snail shell

 

Hermit crab需要shell来躲避捕食者,shell越大越好,crab会通过shell的气味和所含的calcium来衡量;其次他们很少会抛弃shell,因为这样做有被捕食者发现的危险,或者容易被其他crab盗走;一些特殊种类的crab会选择一些特别的shell.一种crab会选择被某种植物所覆盖的shell,这种植物可以在一定程度上溶解shell,不知其太大而难以拖动;即将死亡的crab身边会聚集大量crab选择shell, 他们按照自身大小选择合适的shell


4、Crop Rotation

 

技术革新提高了生产效率,主要包括:plow的改良;用oxen替代马;three courserotation的使用。欧洲北部不适宜牲畜生长,也没有办法利用其粪便提高耕种效率,南方雨水丰富,情况与北方相反。之后提到采取休耕的方法,但这种方法效率不高,作物多样性也比较匮乏;然后改成three course rotation,得到了很好的收效。
