我即將參加12月15日的雅思考試,一次考試2070元,就為了這么些血汗錢,我也得好好準備?。¢_一份文集記錄自己的備考歷程和備考經(jīng)驗,希望屏幕前的烤鴨們也能看得開心,和我一起走過這一心路歷程。如果能在這個世界上,找到一樣經(jīng)受著雅思考試折磨的一個靈魂,說著只有烤鴨能聽得懂的語言,我想你也會展露出會心一笑吧~
先說說我的悲慘口語考試經(jīng)歷,讓大家樂一樂:
第一次考試,閱讀/聽力滿分或接近滿分,口語5.5
第二次考試,閱讀/聽力滿分或接近滿分,口語6.5
第三次考試,閱讀/聽力滿分或接近滿分,口語6.5
額,這是什么神一般的7分難破預言,這次,我一定要打破這個詛咒,大陸上的幾百萬烤鴨啊,給我力量吧!
再說說曾經(jīng)試過的策略:
1. 看預測,不說,然后5.5?
2. 看預測,也每天練了1小時,堅持1個月,6.5
然后就沒有然后了...
這一次的策略是提高自己的用詞準確度和廣泛度,所以我從劍橋真題8聽力原文中摘錄出的可以用在口語里的很多相關表達,并且在平時練習時就試著用上,爭取在用詞和連貫2個方面提分~
以下為和住所相關的地道表達:
