09年7.11/23及1-7月雅思考試反饋和總結
7.23考試初步反饋:考試稍難,新題較多
1.聽力三新一舊:在一級重點預測中V08144S4(聽力只要是舊題90-100%都能預測中)
2.預測中A類小作文題型:柱狀圖
3.G類大作文(等于葉毅斌寫作預測里面的第8,11,16結合在一起)和A類大作文都是新題目,但是在預測中有很多類似素材可以套用，5.30,6.13,6.20,7.4,7.11連續(xù)幾場雅思考試都預測中A類或G類大小作文--一般只要是舊題目都能預測中。
4.連續(xù)幾個月98-100%預測中所有口語話題.
葉毅斌新提醒:近一段時間以來 ,雅思口語題目和寫作題目經?；ハ嘟栌?拼湊組合,特別是新的寫作題目經常取自于口語話題,這其實是好現(xiàn)象,說明我們的口語和寫作是可以一起準備的,不要把他們孤立開來.
總之，2009.1-7月27次考試中有18次難度適中，5次稍難，只有2.7,3.14，4.4，5.9較難， 明了我的判斷2009雅思考試不會有什么明顯變化--難度,題型是不會變的,多是根據每場具體情況增加修改點題庫的題目.實際上雅思考試多年來是很穩(wěn)定的,雅思的分數(shù)是一個標準的衡量尺度,不能變化頻繁,難度和題型是很穩(wěn)定的,這樣才能體現(xiàn)公平公正.雅思考試全國一個月共4-5場，考官一直盡量在維持每次考試難度的一致性，雖然實際上有些偏差,不過偏差不大.基本上閱讀，聽力，大小作文的難度要形成一個平衡。比如，閱讀難，聽力就不能難了，大作文難寫，小作文就需要簡單些。閱讀難，聽力就不會難…如果總體難度大，評分要求也會下調，比如2.7雖然很難，可是考鴨分數(shù)都不會低的，而有時候考試簡單了，反而分數(shù)卻不高。所以在考場上考生要有良好的心理素質，不以物喜，不以己悲，沉著冷靜，堅持到后，盡力而為。但是雅思考試太頻繁，考官經常也難把握好，因為每次考試考生人數(shù)差別大，考點數(shù)差別大，加上有單獨A類的，也有A/G類的，所以也就會出現(xiàn)難度不均衡的偏差了。大家可以認真查看2009雅思考試的時間安排表，選擇相對比較有利的時間報考。預測考試場次難度有幾條根據，但是預測有風險,如果感興趣可以到我博客http://提問。筆者葉毅斌認為未來的7-12月份雅思考試依然不會有明顯變化，沒有什么哪個月新題多，哪個月比較難的講法--每個月都差不多。新題目的增加是每個月循序漸進的，增加一點點，不可能集中在哪個月。但是每個月幾乎都會有一場稍難或較難的，其他的適中。關于大家所議論的G類閱讀偏向工作類的文章的說法，葉毅斌認為這其實并不會增加原來閱讀的難度和題型，反而覺得這樣更合G類烤鴨口味。實際上整個閱讀的難度，題型一點都不會變的，不需要刻意避開哪個月不考。所以關于變題,變難或新題多等講法是很幼稚的炒作，大家不需要太在意。葉毅斌認為7-12月份的口語應該沒什么明顯變化，口語新題目多3-5%，口語95%以上都是舊話題，聽力50%舊題目（平均兩舊），寫作70%舊題目或者舊題目改造，大家不需要擔心。
09年1-7月份27次考試，葉毅斌預測歷次多中---聽力,口語預測99%-100%中。大小作文70-80%預測中。大作文70-80%為舊題目，只要是舊題目，一般都能預測到。雅思口語考試每次絕大部分都是舊題目，都覆蓋于我預測中。
考試總體難度預測：
7.25應該難度適中或者比較簡單，聽力應該有60%-70%舊題，口語95%以上還是舊話題，閱讀稍難是總體趨勢，小作文應該是柱狀圖-餅圖-線圖或幾種圖結合起來的綜合圖，流程圖20%機率稍微準備，大作文可能是舊題或者舊題翻新，注意不要離題。
8.8應該難度適中，聽力應該有50-60%舊題，口語95%以上還是舊話題，閱讀稍難是總體趨勢，小作文應該是柱狀圖-餅圖-線圖或幾種圖結合起來的綜合圖，流程圖20%機率稍微準備，大作文可能是舊題或者舊題翻新，注意不要離題。
聽力預測：
7.25三舊一新可能性50%,兩舊兩新可能性是40%,三新一舊可能性10%適中,填空題目多些---VIP資料或聽力機經預測版本號里面的聽力高頻率拼寫詞匯要過關好。8.8兩舊兩新可能性40%，三新一舊可能是40%，三舊一新可能是20%,適中。8.13兩舊兩新可能性是40%，三舊一新可能性40%，三新一舊可能性20%。填空題和單選題都要注意加強訓練，特別是填空題估計會比較多。考生要很細致，重視填空中的單詞拼寫,名詞單復數(shù)和大小寫問題,不要空歡喜聽得懂,結果是拼寫錯誤或遺漏多,但是也不要無中生有，亂加S,大寫，許多考生已經倒在這上面了。關于大小寫問題特別提醒：聽力要么采取全部從頭到尾每個單詞和字母大寫的方法；要么根據實際情況只需專有名詞，如人名地名等大寫。采取把一部分沒把握的大寫的方法是錯誤的。聽力近半年真正全新題目較少（每次大約1-2個），平均每次聽力考試聽力為兩舊，或者是舊題目改造。聽力考試不用怕出新題，其實大部分新題目都簡單的，大家完全可以*實力做好題目的。喜歡背聽力機經的烤鴨可以參考預測版本號去背。但是要背就要背透，不然考試時想不起來。同時也要注意有的機經題目雖考到了，卻有時候做了修改，考官很狡猾的。建議大家，利用機經的場景去記那些高頻詞，而不要太拘泥于機經本身。在場景中記高頻詞，是非常有效的途徑，我個人覺得這實際作用更大。因為你會對高頻詞反應靈敏，而往往被你反應到的詞，可能就是?？傊犃C經的作用是：熟悉背景,參考，記憶單詞
采取兩手同時進行的原則-聽透劍橋1-7（時間不夠的就4-7）+背下面預測中的聽力機經版本號（加VIP資料里面的聽力高頻考點拼寫詞）。時間少的就以聽寫劍橋4-7為主,大聲跟讀復敘聽力原文,既練聽力又提高口語，或者聽聽有原文的每天新的BBC,VOA.重視真正聽力能力的提高。
（7月4/11/23日預測中的版本號08141S1,V30086S3，V081206S1,V08144S4已經刪除）
以下版本號是7.25,8.8/13,8-10月所有考試必備的：（請后面考的同學提早準備，不然到時候就來不及了）

應廣大烤鴨的要求，為了節(jié)省大家寶貴時間(每次考試烤鴨都要花大量的時間和精力來整理預測里面的聽力機經版本號，甚至有不少版本號找不到)，葉毅斌和助理老師在一個月前就開始著手整理方便快捷每周能更新的“葉毅斌聽力預測機經”，于2009年6月11日完成。該機經包含所有版本,為WORD文檔---非pdf,沒密碼，方便打印使用，每周根據考試和葉毅斌聽力預測更新1-2次，完全按照葉毅斌聽力預測里面一二三重點先后和版本號順序排列下來，清楚方便。
閱讀預測
雅思閱讀機經基本沒用，閱讀無法預測文章，從來就無人能預測到，就算預測到了類似文章用處也很小。2008年至2009雅思閱讀題庫大幅度更新，舊文章不斷減少，約占全部文章量20%，新題井噴式出現(xiàn)，占80%。閱讀主要是預測題型，考前過關劍橋1-7真題出題的所有考點替換詞-同義詞.
7.25,8.8/13,8-10月A類閱讀重點題型應該還是： match， summary，t/f/ng ，list of heading, 段落信息品配,建議專項總結重點題型，加強訓練。提醒：是非判斷題t/f/ng務必注意規(guī)范化.閱讀考不好主要是三大原因：1.詞匯量太少；2.閱讀輸入量少：應對當前閱讀較難的趨勢，閱讀量一定要夠才能考出好成績，閱讀量不足永遠別想提高閱讀速度（劍橋1-7+劉洪波的雅思閱讀真經3，2---如果讀完這個量，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)你的閱讀速度賊快！）；3.雅思閱讀文章特點和解題技巧沒掌握。雅思閱讀出題的本質是三種替換：同義詞/詞組替換，句型替換，語法替換，雅思閱讀提高做題速度和命中率的捷徑是：a.劍橋1-7真題中同義替換詞和考點詞的掌握 b.雅思閱讀文章特點和解題技巧掌握。閱讀總的趨勢是較難，雖然考生經常在閱讀方面叫難，但是閱讀考出來的成績往往卻是各項中好的，所以大家要有信心，一方面要加大閱讀量，另外一方面加強劍橋雅思文章的熟悉和解題技巧的熟練掌握，堅持每天挑劍橋4-7一篇文章精讀+泛讀/做一套的習慣，同時在做完題目后要進行專項總結和歸納，加強考點單詞，替換詞和好詞句的積累。不管考試難易，評分標準是彈性的和公平的，假如閱讀難考，那么可能做對23個是6分，假如閱讀簡單，那么做對25個才得6分，所以考生要有良好的心理素質，盡力而為。不管難易，大家機會均等，考試成績不一定會比較低或高，大家要做好充分的準備，加大閱讀量的輸入。G類同學不單單要完成劍橋1-7的G類文章，而且也要完成A類文章，因為真正考試G類閱讀難度高于劍橋的G類文章。G類閱讀葉毅斌還推薦劉洪波 編的 移民類雅思經典教程（我跟劉老師不認識，大家放心，但是我想他肯定會很感謝我的，哈）。G類閱讀重點題型：t/f/ng , match, list of headings，summary .建議A/G類考鴨都要把劍橋4-7（有時間的同學劍橋1-7）上面提到的重點題型集中在一起專項復習?？记白鲱}一定要掐時間，把閱讀速度和質量進行磨合（雅思考試中閱讀和寫作經常有相當一部分考生沒做完），可以使用葉毅斌老師課堂講過的平行做題法，平行讀透和歸納關鍵詞一樣的題目，有目的地閱讀，重點精讀跟題目有關的句子段落，以此來保做題質量和速度。在平常的閱讀訓練中培養(yǎng)課堂強調的雅思閱讀三大品-confidence, carefulness, patience。同時參考復習課堂講義中的題型解題技巧,注意出題特點--同義轉達,句型替換,語法替換和考點不考面的規(guī)律。堅持句子對句子，詞對詞，點對點的做題方法，保每個題目的據定位；精讀對照并驗題目和原文的替換和轉化。我博客閱讀專欄文章---雅思閱讀捷徑-文章剖析和解題策略，大家可以去看。大家要堅持每天精讀一篇劍橋(劍橋4-7)+做題(劍橋5-7)+每天堅持讀英語報刊雜志網站www.bbc.com,www.voa.com,國際先驅導報等科技,經濟等新聞(博客內有推薦提高雅思閱讀的英文網站),現(xiàn)在考試的三篇文章都是這樣的題材。事實明，經常閱讀英文網站報刊，到大海中游泳的人，到了雅思這種池塘考試就會覺得很輕松。很多閱讀高分學生的有這樣的體會：考試的三篇文章很面熟，在平時每天閱覽的英文網站報刊看過。閱讀也可以看雅思閱讀真經3-2，因為舊文章一般占3分之一?；A詞匯主要是掌握劍橋1-7題目中的同義替換詞，一詞多義，考點詞，同時要重視加強常見單詞的聽寫，以防聽力的填空和寫作中單詞拼寫出問題。
寫作分析與預測?7.25,8.8/13,8-10月大作文重點按順序如下：婦女問題，全球化，教育，動物保護，節(jié)假日休閑，社會問題，年青人老年人問題，科技，體育,醫(yī)療社會福利,家庭生活等話題，要求同學們多準備這方面的詞匯和句型。7.25,8.8/13及8-10月A類小作文重點排列如下. 一級：餅圖-線圖-表格-柱狀圖 二級：幾個圖形結合（重點排列如下：表格，曲線圖，餅圖,柱狀圖的結合）；三級：流程圖機率20%(上次流程圖是1.15考的，3.21/6.27考了兩地圖)，地圖近應該都不會考了，流程圖要稍做準備。但是考官不是很愛出-因為很難出流程圖，就是考到也會是比較簡單的。大家可以放心。我的博客http://，VIP資料里面有流程圖和其他各種小作文圖形的寫法，套句和范文，方便復習。大家也可以找劍橋里面的該類題目來練：各準備一篇。作文題目一定要看仔細了，審題要很注意。經常發(fā)現(xiàn)考試時考生作文題目看錯，看不懂，或單詞誤解，造成離題，偏題現(xiàn)象，比如8月9日考試時，A類大作文是In some countries ,governments are encouraging industries and businesses to move out of large cities and into regional areas ,do you think advantages of this development outweigh its disadvantages. Give reasons for you answer and include examples from your knowledge or experiences。有的考生就把regional areas看成religious areas，有的考生都不知道outweigh的意思。所以建議考生在考前要盡量寫完我所預測的大作文和小作文，并請人面批，再讀范文提高。預測里面的作文就是近期7-11月的重點，好都要寫。只有完成這個指標，才能形成自己的一套寫法，才有自己一整套的句子表達，才能應萬變，考試時作文才能按時間寫完。人生是一個過程，雅思復習也需要一個過程，作文的提高更需要過程，偷工減料沒完成我提出的指標的同學考試就會知道苦頭了-要么在規(guī)定時間內寫不完，要么離題或寫得很痛苦。
備考指導
1.寫作練習三步走：“精讀— 摘抄— 模仿”。
很多同學寫作的大的問題是無話可說，解決這一問題的好的方法是先大量精讀雅思寫作的范文，請記住“沒有大量的輸入就沒有自由的輸出”。我VIP資料有提供所有預測大小作文的詳細范文寫法，也提供各種各樣寫作套句，寫作詞組搭配和句型，首段中段和尾段諸多模版供選擇，具體可以看我博客置頂文章。請記住雅思寫作中所有的讓考官眼前一亮的東西一定是提前設計好的。記得筆者之前曾和一位雅思的前考官交流過，她曾對我說了這樣一句話，讓我記憶猶新：“Every word in your essay should be preset..”
2.多練習范文:
根據科學統(tǒng)計要在雅思寫作中取得6.5-7分的成績，至少要練習15篇左右文章。希望同學們在練習的時候一定要掐好時間，近幾次考試很多同學大作文沒有來得及寫完，結果寫作在5分以下，究其原因還是平時的實戰(zhàn)練習太少了。
寫完之后一定要找到老師來批改，我自己給學生批改作文的實踐告訴我：某一個學生所犯的錯誤的類型是不斷重讀重現(xiàn)的，比如我給一位雅思之前5分的學員一氣改了5篇文章，發(fā)現(xiàn)5篇文章的錯誤保持高度一致：主謂一致錯誤，一個句子出現(xiàn)兩個謂語動詞，詞性誤用，中間段落論單薄。后來改正之后，這次作文考出了7分的好成績.

09年7.11/23及1-7月雅思考試反饋和總結
7.23考試初步反饋:考試稍難,新題較多
1.聽力三新一舊:在一級重點預測中V08144S4(聽力只要是舊題90-100%都能預測中)
2.預測中A類小作文題型:柱狀圖
3.G類大作文(等于葉毅斌寫作預測里面的第8,11,16結合在一起)和A類大作文都是新題目,但是在預測中有很多類似素材可以套用，5.30,6.13,6.20,7.4,7.11連續(xù)幾場雅思考試都預測中A類或G類大小作文--一般只要是舊題目都能預測中。
4.連續(xù)幾個月98-100%預測中所有口語話題.
葉毅斌新提醒:近一段時間以來 ,雅思口語題目和寫作題目經?；ハ嘟栌?拼湊組合,特別是新的寫作題目經常取自于口語話題,這其實是好現(xiàn)象,說明我們的口語和寫作是可以一起準備的,不要把他們孤立開來.
總之，2009.1-7月27次考試中有18次難度適中，5次稍難，只有2.7,3.14，4.4，5.9較難， 明了我的判斷2009雅思考試不會有什么明顯變化--難度,題型是不會變的,多是根據每場具體情況增加修改點題庫的題目.實際上雅思考試多年來是很穩(wěn)定的,雅思的分數(shù)是一個標準的衡量尺度,不能變化頻繁,難度和題型是很穩(wěn)定的,這樣才能體現(xiàn)公平公正.雅思考試全國一個月共4-5場，考官一直盡量在維持每次考試難度的一致性，雖然實際上有些偏差,不過偏差不大.基本上閱讀，聽力，大小作文的難度要形成一個平衡。比如，閱讀難，聽力就不能難了，大作文難寫，小作文就需要簡單些。閱讀難，聽力就不會難…如果總體難度大，評分要求也會下調，比如2.7雖然很難，可是考鴨分數(shù)都不會低的，而有時候考試簡單了，反而分數(shù)卻不高。所以在考場上考生要有良好的心理素質，不以物喜，不以己悲，沉著冷靜，堅持到后，盡力而為。但是雅思考試太頻繁，考官經常也難把握好，因為每次考試考生人數(shù)差別大，考點數(shù)差別大，加上有單獨A類的，也有A/G類的，所以也就會出現(xiàn)難度不均衡的偏差了。大家可以認真查看2009雅思考試的時間安排表，選擇相對比較有利的時間報考。預測考試場次難度有幾條根據，但是預測有風險,如果感興趣可以到我博客http://提問。筆者葉毅斌認為未來的7-12月份雅思考試依然不會有明顯變化，沒有什么哪個月新題多，哪個月比較難的講法--每個月都差不多。新題目的增加是每個月循序漸進的，增加一點點，不可能集中在哪個月。但是每個月幾乎都會有一場稍難或較難的，其他的適中。關于大家所議論的G類閱讀偏向工作類的文章的說法，葉毅斌認為這其實并不會增加原來閱讀的難度和題型，反而覺得這樣更合G類烤鴨口味。實際上整個閱讀的難度，題型一點都不會變的，不需要刻意避開哪個月不考。所以關于變題,變難或新題多等講法是很幼稚的炒作，大家不需要太在意。葉毅斌認為7-12月份的口語應該沒什么明顯變化，口語新題目多3-5%，口語95%以上都是舊話題，聽力50%舊題目（平均兩舊），寫作70%舊題目或者舊題目改造，大家不需要擔心。
09年1-7月份27次考試，葉毅斌預測歷次多中---聽力,口語預測99%-100%中。大小作文70-80%預測中。大作文70-80%為舊題目，只要是舊題目，一般都能預測到。雅思口語考試每次絕大部分都是舊題目，都覆蓋于我預測中。
考試總體難度預測：
7.25應該難度適中或者比較簡單，聽力應該有60%-70%舊題，口語95%以上還是舊話題，閱讀稍難是總體趨勢，小作文應該是柱狀圖-餅圖-線圖或幾種圖結合起來的綜合圖，流程圖20%機率稍微準備，大作文可能是舊題或者舊題翻新，注意不要離題。
8.8應該難度適中，聽力應該有50-60%舊題，口語95%以上還是舊話題，閱讀稍難是總體趨勢，小作文應該是柱狀圖-餅圖-線圖或幾種圖結合起來的綜合圖，流程圖20%機率稍微準備，大作文可能是舊題或者舊題翻新，注意不要離題。
聽力預測：
7.25三舊一新可能性50%,兩舊兩新可能性是40%,三新一舊可能性10%適中,填空題目多些---VIP資料或聽力機經預測版本號里面的聽力高頻率拼寫詞匯要過關好。8.8兩舊兩新可能性40%，三新一舊可能是40%，三舊一新可能是20%,適中。8.13兩舊兩新可能性是40%，三舊一新可能性40%，三新一舊可能性20%。填空題和單選題都要注意加強訓練，特別是填空題估計會比較多。考生要很細致，重視填空中的單詞拼寫,名詞單復數(shù)和大小寫問題,不要空歡喜聽得懂,結果是拼寫錯誤或遺漏多,但是也不要無中生有，亂加S,大寫，許多考生已經倒在這上面了。關于大小寫問題特別提醒：聽力要么采取全部從頭到尾每個單詞和字母大寫的方法；要么根據實際情況只需專有名詞，如人名地名等大寫。采取把一部分沒把握的大寫的方法是錯誤的。聽力近半年真正全新題目較少（每次大約1-2個），平均每次聽力考試聽力為兩舊，或者是舊題目改造。聽力考試不用怕出新題，其實大部分新題目都簡單的，大家完全可以*實力做好題目的。喜歡背聽力機經的烤鴨可以參考預測版本號去背。但是要背就要背透，不然考試時想不起來。同時也要注意有的機經題目雖考到了，卻有時候做了修改，考官很狡猾的。建議大家，利用機經的場景去記那些高頻詞，而不要太拘泥于機經本身。在場景中記高頻詞，是非常有效的途徑，我個人覺得這實際作用更大。因為你會對高頻詞反應靈敏，而往往被你反應到的詞，可能就是?？傊犃C經的作用是：熟悉背景,參考，記憶單詞
采取兩手同時進行的原則-聽透劍橋1-7（時間不夠的就4-7）+背下面預測中的聽力機經版本號（加VIP資料里面的聽力高頻考點拼寫詞）。時間少的就以聽寫劍橋4-7為主,大聲跟讀復敘聽力原文,既練聽力又提高口語，或者聽聽有原文的每天新的BBC,VOA.重視真正聽力能力的提高。
（7月4/11/23日預測中的版本號08141S1,V30086S3，V081206S1,V08144S4已經刪除）
以下版本號是7.25,8.8/13,8-10月所有考試必備的：（請后面考的同學提早準備，不然到時候就來不及了）

閱讀預測
雅思閱讀機經基本沒用，閱讀無法預測文章，從來就無人能預測到，就算預測到了類似文章用處也很小。2008年至2009雅思閱讀題庫大幅度更新，舊文章不斷減少，約占全部文章量20%，新題井噴式出現(xiàn)，占80%。閱讀主要是預測題型，考前過關劍橋1-7真題出題的所有考點替換詞-同義詞.
7.25,8.8/13,8-10月A類閱讀重點題型應該還是： match， summary，t/f/ng ，list of heading, 段落信息品配,建議專項總結重點題型，加強訓練。提醒：是非判斷題t/f/ng務必注意規(guī)范化.閱讀考不好主要是三大原因：1.詞匯量太少；2.閱讀輸入量少：應對當前閱讀較難的趨勢，閱讀量一定要夠才能考出好成績，閱讀量不足永遠別想提高閱讀速度（劍橋1-7+劉洪波的雅思閱讀真經3，2---如果讀完這個量，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)你的閱讀速度賊快！）；3.雅思閱讀文章特點和解題技巧沒掌握。雅思閱讀出題的本質是三種替換：同義詞/詞組替換，句型替換，語法替換，雅思閱讀提高做題速度和命中率的捷徑是：a.劍橋1-7真題中同義替換詞和考點詞的掌握 b.雅思閱讀文章特點和解題技巧掌握。閱讀總的趨勢是較難，雖然考生經常在閱讀方面叫難，但是閱讀考出來的成績往往卻是各項中好的，所以大家要有信心，一方面要加大閱讀量，另外一方面加強劍橋雅思文章的熟悉和解題技巧的熟練掌握，堅持每天挑劍橋4-7一篇文章精讀+泛讀/做一套的習慣，同時在做完題目后要進行專項總結和歸納，加強考點單詞，替換詞和好詞句的積累。不管考試難易，評分標準是彈性的和公平的，假如閱讀難考，那么可能做對23個是6分，假如閱讀簡單，那么做對25個才得6分，所以考生要有良好的心理素質，盡力而為。不管難易，大家機會均等，考試成績不一定會比較低或高，大家要做好充分的準備，加大閱讀量的輸入。G類同學不單單要完成劍橋1-7的G類文章，而且也要完成A類文章，因為真正考試G類閱讀難度高于劍橋的G類文章。G類閱讀葉毅斌還推薦劉洪波 編的 移民類雅思經典教程（我跟劉老師不認識，大家放心，但是我想他肯定會很感謝我的，哈）。G類閱讀重點題型：t/f/ng , match, list of headings，summary .建議A/G類考鴨都要把劍橋4-7（有時間的同學劍橋1-7）上面提到的重點題型集中在一起專項復習?？记白鲱}一定要掐時間，把閱讀速度和質量進行磨合（雅思考試中閱讀和寫作經常有相當一部分考生沒做完），可以使用葉毅斌老師課堂講過的平行做題法，平行讀透和歸納關鍵詞一樣的題目，有目的地閱讀，重點精讀跟題目有關的句子段落，以此來保做題質量和速度。在平常的閱讀訓練中培養(yǎng)課堂強調的雅思閱讀三大品-confidence, carefulness, patience。同時參考復習課堂講義中的題型解題技巧,注意出題特點--同義轉達,句型替換,語法替換和考點不考面的規(guī)律。堅持句子對句子，詞對詞，點對點的做題方法，保每個題目的據定位；精讀對照并驗題目和原文的替換和轉化。我博客閱讀專欄文章---雅思閱讀捷徑-文章剖析和解題策略，大家可以去看。大家要堅持每天精讀一篇劍橋(劍橋4-7)+做題(劍橋5-7)+每天堅持讀英語報刊雜志網站www.bbc.com,www.voa.com,國際先驅導報等科技,經濟等新聞(博客內有推薦提高雅思閱讀的英文網站),現(xiàn)在考試的三篇文章都是這樣的題材。事實明，經常閱讀英文網站報刊，到大海中游泳的人，到了雅思這種池塘考試就會覺得很輕松。很多閱讀高分學生的有這樣的體會：考試的三篇文章很面熟，在平時每天閱覽的英文網站報刊看過。閱讀也可以看雅思閱讀真經3-2，因為舊文章一般占3分之一?；A詞匯主要是掌握劍橋1-7題目中的同義替換詞，一詞多義，考點詞，同時要重視加強常見單詞的聽寫，以防聽力的填空和寫作中單詞拼寫出問題。
寫作分析與預測?7.25,8.8/13,8-10月大作文重點按順序如下：婦女問題，全球化，教育，動物保護，節(jié)假日休閑，社會問題，年青人老年人問題，科技，體育,醫(yī)療社會福利,家庭生活等話題，要求同學們多準備這方面的詞匯和句型。7.25,8.8/13及8-10月A類小作文重點排列如下. 一級：餅圖-線圖-表格-柱狀圖 二級：幾個圖形結合（重點排列如下：表格，曲線圖，餅圖,柱狀圖的結合）；三級：流程圖機率20%(上次流程圖是1.15考的，3.21/6.27考了兩地圖)，地圖近應該都不會考了，流程圖要稍做準備。但是考官不是很愛出-因為很難出流程圖，就是考到也會是比較簡單的。大家可以放心。我的博客http://，VIP資料里面有流程圖和其他各種小作文圖形的寫法，套句和范文，方便復習。大家也可以找劍橋里面的該類題目來練：各準備一篇。作文題目一定要看仔細了，審題要很注意。經常發(fā)現(xiàn)考試時考生作文題目看錯，看不懂，或單詞誤解，造成離題，偏題現(xiàn)象，比如8月9日考試時，A類大作文是In some countries ,governments are encouraging industries and businesses to move out of large cities and into regional areas ,do you think advantages of this development outweigh its disadvantages. Give reasons for you answer and include examples from your knowledge or experiences。有的考生就把regional areas看成religious areas，有的考生都不知道outweigh的意思。所以建議考生在考前要盡量寫完我所預測的大作文和小作文，并請人面批，再讀范文提高。預測里面的作文就是近期7-11月的重點，好都要寫。只有完成這個指標，才能形成自己的一套寫法，才有自己一整套的句子表達，才能應萬變，考試時作文才能按時間寫完。人生是一個過程，雅思復習也需要一個過程，作文的提高更需要過程，偷工減料沒完成我提出的指標的同學考試就會知道苦頭了-要么在規(guī)定時間內寫不完，要么離題或寫得很痛苦。
備考指導
1.寫作練習三步走：“精讀— 摘抄— 模仿”。
很多同學寫作的大的問題是無話可說，解決這一問題的好的方法是先大量精讀雅思寫作的范文，請記住“沒有大量的輸入就沒有自由的輸出”。我VIP資料有提供所有預測大小作文的詳細范文寫法，也提供各種各樣寫作套句，寫作詞組搭配和句型，首段中段和尾段諸多模版供選擇，具體可以看我博客置頂文章。請記住雅思寫作中所有的讓考官眼前一亮的東西一定是提前設計好的。記得筆者之前曾和一位雅思的前考官交流過，她曾對我說了這樣一句話，讓我記憶猶新：“Every word in your essay should be preset..”
2.多練習范文:
根據科學統(tǒng)計要在雅思寫作中取得6.5-7分的成績，至少要練習15篇左右文章。希望同學們在練習的時候一定要掐好時間，近幾次考試很多同學大作文沒有來得及寫完，結果寫作在5分以下，究其原因還是平時的實戰(zhàn)練習太少了。
寫完之后一定要找到老師來批改，我自己給學生批改作文的實踐告訴我：某一個學生所犯的錯誤的類型是不斷重讀重現(xiàn)的，比如我給一位雅思之前5分的學員一氣改了5篇文章，發(fā)現(xiàn)5篇文章的錯誤保持高度一致：主謂一致錯誤，一個句子出現(xiàn)兩個謂語動詞，詞性誤用，中間段落論單薄。后來改正之后，這次作文考出了7分的好成績.
