借鉴他人之-新托福新题探究之单词题
我们初学iBT阅读时, 可能更关注一些陌生的新题型, 随着我们逐渐对方法和技巧的掌握, 整体正确率不断提高时,有一种题型日益彰显出狰狞的面目,那就是VOCABULARY QUESTION.很多同学觉得,这单词题成了iBT阅读的最后障碍.对于这个问题,一则要扩大我们的单词量,再则要加强在上下文中理解单词的意思,这是两个基本点.还有一个有效的途径,就是熟悉机经.ETS总是喜欢重复考点,对于单词题就更是如此.因此我不辞劳苦地搜集了许多单词题的鸡精,铺列于下.左侧为文中单词,右侧为正确选项.一定要熟记于心,因为在考场上很有可能碰到原题
经常扫视,经常瞧瞧,培养感情,尤其考托前两三天一定再瞄几眼,考场上妙不可言
