托福,你“變”了!7月28日加試,改革前加速沖刺
2019-07-25 劉強
(文章最后,附7月28日考前口語寫作機經(jīng))
眾所周知,8月1日開始,托福考試就要開始執(zhí)行新的考試形式,包括考試時長,題型等都會發(fā)生一些變化。近期備考7月28日托福考試的同學(xué)們就會比較焦慮,作為托福改革前的最后一次考試,它的難度會是怎樣的?我們在備考上是否需要做一些調(diào)整呢?
對于托福考試的難度而言,ETS官方慣用“consistent”這個單詞來形容托福考試近年來的難度變化。它們指出:托福考試在開發(fā)方法,衡量方式和考試題型以及應(yīng)用的學(xué)術(shù)材料上,都是一致的,并沒有發(fā)生變化。所以關(guān)于難度的變化,大家不用擔(dān)心,改革前的最后一次托福考試和改革之后的第一次考試,并不會發(fā)生太大的難度差別。
但是這里我們必須要強調(diào)一下托福聽力近期的難度趨勢和備考建議:
因為最近參加托福考試的學(xué)員,確實越來越多的人反映,說“托福聽力難度提升了”,那這個感覺是如何產(chǎn)生的呢?
其實,托福聽力的難度一直居高不下。與2017-2018年相比, 2019年 的考試一次會有 3-4套題目,這四套題目中的難度不是完全平均的,而且總體的難度都不低,體現(xiàn)在三個方面:
1. 題材:比如學(xué)生場景詞不足會覺得微生物題材比哺乳動物題材難;
2. 出題層次不是按照常規(guī)套路:會有一些反規(guī)律或沒有明顯考點提示詞的題目 ,對于考點預(yù)判制造很大難度,對于分層不熟練的同學(xué)經(jīng)常感覺摸不到頭緒;
3. 選項出的非常 “繞”:也就是混淆度很高,沒有對于題目非常熟悉,沒有經(jīng)過嚴格培訓(xùn),很容易落入出題人的圈套。
所以想要托福聽力立于不敗之地,還是要夯實基礎(chǔ),跟著優(yōu)秀的老師,學(xué)習(xí)方法,加強精聽訓(xùn)練,系統(tǒng)掌握才能立于不敗之地。
說完聽力,我們再說說閱讀:
我們常見的托福備考方法是:提升詞匯量和長難句的分析能力,了解托福閱讀各個題型的解題方法,然后通過精讀練習(xí)來提升閱讀能力和托福閱讀題目的分析能力。
改革之后的托福閱讀每篇10道題,平均做題時間18min每篇。與之前的每篇文章14道題,平均每篇做題時間20min相比,似乎我們的做題時間更多了。但是我們試想一下,如果閱讀文章總體長度不變的前提下,雖然減少了題目,但是同樣我們閱讀文章的時間也變少了,這種情況對于我們的整體閱讀速度要求其實并沒有降低;另外,如果減少的題目都是詞匯題的話,我們的做題壓力反而會更大,因為做每道詞匯題的平均時間不會超過20sec。所以即便是題目減少了,時間縮短了,我們在備考托福閱讀的時候,仍然需要提升詞匯的熟練度,進而提高閱讀速度,并且強化文章細節(jié)的理解能力和文章主旨的歸納總結(jié)能力。所以根據(jù)上述分析,在托福閱讀備考方面,目前的新政并不會產(chǎn)生太大影響。
