标题[心得] 自学一战Overall 7心得
时间Wed May 17 00:46:18 2017
大家好,今天要来分享自学两个月的准备心得~
背景:半职考生,高中考过多益 程度中高级
自从上大学到去年10月底退役前约有五年多没碰英文(只有偶尔看看美国影集或球
赛转播)
准备雅思考试大概两个月左右
准备期间是自己爬文找书练习(没有找人批改作文或练习口说)
希望我的小小心得可以对自学的朋友有些帮助!!!
成绩:L:7.5 R:7 W:6.5 S:7 Overall:7

慎小嶷十天突破雅思写作(剑11版)
http://www.books.com.tw/products/CN11340178
Listening:
听力几乎没有准备教材 只听了
OG里面的练习和practice tests
想用OG的人要注意一下!听力可能比实际考试简单一个band,个人认为做剑4-剑11会比
较准
而听力基本上主要还是先看题目,预测他会问什麽
如名词,可能是人名、时间或地点最好先稍微标记一下,写起来较容易判断
题外话
UK postcode的格式主要是 AB1 2CD 这样的格式
可以参考
https://www.doogal.co.uk/PostcodeGenerator.php
数字有可能超过1码 离市中心愈远 数字愈大
顺便分享一个这次考试的经验
电话跟人名一定会拼出来
数字零会念成O这大家都知道
有一个是这次考试才知道
XY"Z"的Z 可以读作ZEE 也可以读作ZED

Reading:
在练习期间错很多(烂),也看了很多书
无词阅读
这本书就讲了满多的技巧!无词的意思并不是真的不需单字量
而是在不增加新词的前提去作答,运用大量技巧来缩短阅读的思考速度
并针对每种题目应该如何解题有详细的说明
举例:怎麽判断True/False/Not Given
文章说 雪梨港口是世界上最大的港口之一
Sydney Harbor is one of the largest in the world.
题目问 雪梨港是世界上最大的港?
Sydney Harbor is the largest in the world.
文章提“最大的之一”不一定是最大的(可能与其他港并驾齐驱或比最大的港小一
些)
题目问“最大的”肯定是最大的之一(与其他港比较後是最大的)
而题目没说到,所以要选NOT GIVEN
平行阅读
主要除了标题类题型的选项会乱序以外,其他题目基本上会按照文章顺序出
所以可同时看两或三个题型的题目,再到文章里找答案
文章看完的同时,题目也跟着写完
这样可减少每做一个题型又再看一次文章的时间
Reading Strategy
1/预测内容-从标题、副标题、图片
2/扫描文章(skim read),圈关键字:names, numbers, topic words
第二步骤不要花超过五分钟,看完懂个两成就好
3/分析题目,定位关键字
4/回去找答案,精读那个部份或那个段落,一题不超过一分钟
剩下的时间就是多练Cambridge找语感
先求稳再求快,如果错误太多就不要一开始强迫自己要在限时内写完
个人当初开始练习的时候,三篇花了一个小时也写不完
经几次反覆花时间练习,前两篇大概可以一篇15-16分
所以每天一定要分配一点时间练习非常重要!
Writing:
最弱的部分...完全靠Andi、慎、Simon、Liz的资料救起来
Task 1

Task 2
需要很多的ideas应付各种题型
上面得资料里simon那区有simon的电子书
里面有很多ideas可以参考
或是慎小嶷有120急救短语
https://quizlet.com/TLo_O/folders/ieltsguru
也有分成十个种类的ideas可参考,多看多思考就能产生想法
Andi的说法是:要想过再写
有四个步骤 think organize write fix
花八分钟思考一些ideas再下笔,最後花2-3分钟检查(是否有漏加S或ED要注意)
至於架构的部分完全是看Andi的youtube再加以整理一下
第一种题型 Agree/Disagree ---> Thesis 占65-70%
‧Introduction ‧Background information
‧Focus on the issues
‧Thesis statement 你同意或不同意+为什麽?
‧Body Paragraphs ‧Introduce one reason
(2 or 3) ‧Explain it
‧Supporting information
‧Concluding comment
‧Conclusion ‧Restate your opinion
‧Summarize the bps (main ideas only)
Thesis题型最好是一开始先说明立场 你同意或不同意
然後再来主题段看你选那边站 就写那边的立场
不需要写别人的意见或观点,重点在於你自己的想法观念!(没有对错之分)
BP两段或三段看你能有多少idea
ideas愈多可以写成三段
这样每一段用到的单字就不会很多 相对轻松一点
第二种题型 2-sided (benefits/drawbacks, advantages/disadvantages,
some/others)
‧Introduction ‧Topic
‧Paraphrase side 1
‧Paraphrase side 2
‧Body Paragraphs ‧Introduce the side 1
(always 2) ‧Reason 1 + explain
‧Reason 2 + explain
‧Reason 3 + explain 有时间的话
‧Concluding comment 简单总结这个side
‧Conclusion ‧Summarize the bp1 and bp2
‧Where do you think the balance is?
这种叫做Evaluation
跟thesis最大的不同是
两方立场都要写
最後才说明你站在正方还反方
所以回答的主角(主题段)不是你自己的意见
因此个人意见要放在conclusion
第三种题型 Problem/Solution Cause/Effect
‧Introduction ‧Background
‧Focus on issue/problem
‧Purpose of this essay 是要写cause/solution还是just
solutions?
‧BP1 ‧Problem 1 + why
‧Example + Consequences
‧Problem 2 + why
‧Example + Consequences
‧BP2 ‧Solution 1 + why
‧Example + Consequences(intended)
‧Solution 2 + why
‧Example + Consequences(intended)
‧Conclusion ‧Restate Problems
‧Restate Solutions + and goals 你想达成什麽?
如果只要solution 中间就改成
‧BP1 ‧Solution 1 + introduce
‧Explain it
‧Consequence
‧Possible drawbacks or benefits
‧BP2 ‧Solution 2 + introduce
‧Explain it
‧Consequence
‧Possible drawbacks or benefits
这种题型是要你
提出一个解决问题的方法
但是方法要实际可实行
不要提出拯救世界之类的方法
你可以说你提出解法後有something new或 something changes都可以
你的goals主要是说你想达成什麽 达成的主要目的是什麽之类
总之 有了架构 最难的还是主题段
simon的主题段是希望你要先有一个想法
Ideas---> Explain it ---> Example
我个人也是遵循这样的方式写出一个段落
有好的idea还是挺重要的!!!
而练习则找liz跟simon上面的来写
写完再看哪里写得不一样
思考怎麽写会更好来检讨我的作文
学习并模仿他们的句子
慢慢累积
Speaking:
Simon给的六大类主题 准备好应该就可以
For part 2 of IELTS speaking, I encourage my students in Manchester to
prepare ideas for 6 main topic areas:
Describe an object (a gift, something you use etc.)
Describe a person (someone you admire, a family member etc.)
Describe an event (a festival, celebration etc.)
Describe an activity (e.g. a hobby)
Describe a place (somewhere you visited, a holiday etc.)
Describe your favourite (book/film/advertisement/website)
Most questions fit into one of these topics. For example, "Describe a river,
lake or sea
which you like" is number 5 - you could describe a holiday by the sea,
or a city with a river.
Don't take the test without preparing some ideas for these topics first!
最困难的还是两分钟前的笔记
我个人是写
‧人 事 时 地 物 +为什麽
‧你的意见和你怎麽想?
‧讲故事
跟写一个body paragraph差不多
有简单的核心想法→解释→举例说明
多练习还是可以讲到两分钟,ideas无论是写作或口说都可以用的
