专四冲刺丨听写,填空,简答,写作到底应该怎么准备?

专业四级改革,尘埃落定。大敌当前,调整战略,争取做到“知己知彼,一战必胜”。

改革后的试卷概况如下:

看出其中的变化了吗?一方面,听写“瘦身”、新闻“下岗”、小作文取消、语言知识和完形被精简,总题量大幅减少(往年100个题);但另一方面,随着听写填空和阅读简答题的增加,提升了笔答题的分值比重(改革前35分)。结果是,主观笔答题与客观选择题各占半壁江山——50分!

如此改革,要想顺利通过四级,一定要练好笔头功夫。所以,古代帝王“得民心者得天下”,今日学子“重笔头者能过关”。时间紧迫,篇幅有限,今天主要说说——主观笔答题。

“听写Dictation”听写素材以学生日常校园和社会生活话题为主,难度低于中等难度。改革后,听写文章的长度从原来的150词左右减为80—90词,分值也减少了5分,总体难度降低。

回顾历年真题听写短文可以看出,这些文章如果作为阅读理解,初中英语水平也能看懂,为什么却难倒大家呢?主要是“眼高手低”,一写就错。现在我就从以下三点进行说明。

1细节定成败,平时注意笔头积累比如2013年的听写What is a dream for(做梦的意义),其中有两句是“The modern image is that dreams are the brain’s

way of cleaning up the computer’s hard disk. Dreams organize the events of the day into folders and delete what is not needed.”

但是做题的过程中,有同学竟然把硬盘(hard disk)写成硬桌子(hard desk),而且文件夹(folders)和删除键(delete)也写错。所以,不能光眼睛看着电脑,笔头也要熟悉这些常用的词汇。

2常识很重要,调动你的知识储备听第一遍朗读时,不要急着写,因为“欲速则不达”。应该把握文章大意,做到胸有成竹。既然听写素材司空见惯,那么一听到短文的题目和主题句,应马上联系相关常识,调动你的知识储备。

比如2009年的听写New Year’s Eve(除夕),其中两句是“There’s one thing that all New Year’s Eve parties have in common: the countdown to midnight.”半夜子时,新旧交替,人们伴着钟声倒计时。这一常识却被有些同学写成:they can’t down to meet night; they calm down to moonlight; the cut down; they come down at midnight……语法与搭配,常识与逻辑,都没有道理可言。

3听写评分标准10个句子(意群),10分;小拼写错误扣0.25分(如大小写、单复数、冠词等);大错误扣0.5分(如漏词、添词、时态错误等);每句最多扣1分:如果某句话有8个单词全写错,也不会扣2—4分的。不如干脆放弃,写好其他9句,稳拿9分。对于普通高校的学生,得7分就算高分了。

最后提醒:四遍朗读结束,录音中有1分钟预留时间:不是让你重新抄写听写文稿,根本来不及;而是用来快速检查拼写失误,补充空缺的单词,实在不会写就写个意思近似的词;同时检查不合语法规则、有违常理的荒诞句子。“填空Gap-filling”听力理解的Section A,新增填空题,与听写同等分值(10分),但比听写容易得分。

该题算是从专八仿造的题型,“下放”专四后难度自然降低。而且,稍加注意,还能发现一些“隐形”的福利:

福利一,听之前就能看到印在答题卡上的填空文稿——讲座概要,大约五六十词,多是一条条并列的短语。

福利二,考生有30秒时间预览文稿,熟悉要点预测答案。这样听录音时只需等待空缺的关键词,边听边速记。

福利三,只要语法、语义上可接受,答案不唯一。比如The students should _____. 如果答案是“work hard”,你写成be hard-working, be diligent, be industrious, not be lazy都可以,就是说要符合语法而且意思吻合。

福利四,听完后,有两分钟时间填写答案。最后提醒:讲座只朗读一遍;每个空不超过三个词;该题看似简单,千万不可轻敌——还是老毛病,听懂不一定能写对。

“简答Short Answer Questions”阅读理解的Section B新增“简答题”,依据4篇阅读文章提出五个问题,共10分。分值与Section A的10个选择题相当,值得大家重视。

问题中既有细节题:如Why was the reporter late for the press conference?也有概括大意的题:如What does the passage mainly discuss?

作答时,尽量从原文中找到对应的最佳词句,实在找不到,就灵活应变自己总结,最终慎重地落实到笔头上。

既然是简答,答案尽量简短:可以是一个单词、一个短语,也可以写完整句子,但每题不能超过10个单词。注意不要画蛇添足,造成不必要的失分。比如问:What does the word “confessed” mean in the context? 答“Admitted.”即可。如果你偏要写完整句子:It mean admitted. 就会因语法错误而失分。

顺便提一下,过去四篇文章跟着20个选择题,如今只有10个,这就减少了难度和阅读量。要知道,读选项也费时间啊。

“写作Writing”写作,压轴大题,性价比最高——200词,20分;时间分配也最慷慨——45分钟。与前面的听写、填空、简答相比,写作的自由发挥空间最大,最能考察一个人的笔头功底。

考前一个月怎样提高写作?很多同学会说“背诵范文,套用模板”。但仅仅背诵就万事大吉了吗?如果只背诵不练笔,照样写不出好文章,得不到高分。

比如:As far as I concerned; Every thing has two coins; My father teac h me…; my dream will come ture; nowdays, writen, goverment, colledge……阅卷中这样的荒诞错误屡见不鲜。

所以,不仅是背范文,还要默写,然后核对拼写失误。你会发现,背过未必能写对。同时,每周写一两篇作文,与范文比较,或找人修改。

评分原则:阅卷人员采用总体评分(Global scoring)方法,就总体印象——内容和语言两方面——给出奖励分,而不是按语言点的错误数目扣分。为便于把握标准,阅卷人员用“秘诀”四字格把作文分为五个等级(以满分15分为例):

漂漂亮亮(14分)清清楚楚(11分)马马虎虎(8分)糊里糊涂(5分)一塌糊涂(2分)阅卷人员30—50秒“阅”一篇作文,根据总体印象快速确定档次,再上下微调一分,比如作文“清清楚楚”,可得10—12分。

每份试卷只能得到几十秒的关注,如何吸引阅卷老师?一要保持卷面要整洁、书写尽量清楚;二要有亮点、有重点:亮点是漂亮的句型、地道的表达,“重点”是写好首尾段或主题句且内容充实;三要避免低级的错误,如There are many people don’t like…,I’m not agree with this idea,阅卷老师最受不了此类句子的摧残。这里简要提一下占20分的语言知识题(语法和词汇):题量减了10题但分值增加5分——竟然与阅读理解相等。短短10分钟,就可得到苦战阅读理解35分钟的分数。如果10分钟做不完20个题,建议从阅读中抽调三五分钟。

1.Town and Country Life in England There is a big difference between town life and country life in England. In the country, everybody knows everybody else. They know what time you get up, what time you go to bed and what you have for dinner. If you want help, you will always get it and you will be glad to help others. In a large town like London, however, it can sometimes happen that you have never seen your next door neighbor and you do not know his name or anything about him. People in London are often very lonely. This is because people go to different places in the evenings and at weekends. If you walk through the streets in the centre of London on Sunday, it is like a town without people. One is sorry for old people living on their own. They could die in their homes and would not be discovered for weeks or even months. 2. A Change in Women’s Life The important change in women’s life-pattern has only recently begun to have its full effect on women’s economic position. Even a few years ago most girls left school at the first opportunity, and most of them took a full-time job. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women tend to marry younger, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before

Popular Pastime of the English People One of the best means of understanding the people of any nation is watching what the do with their non-working time. Most English men, women and children love growing things, especially flowers. Visitors to England in spring, summer or autumn are likely to see gardens all they way along the railway lines. There are f lowers at the airports and flowers in factory grounds, as well as in gardens along the roads. Each English town has at least one park with beautifully kept flower beds. Public buildings of every kind have brilliant window boxes and sometimes baskets of flowers are hanging on them. But what the English enjoy most is growing things themselves. If it is impossible to have a garden, then a window box or something growing in a pot will do. Looking at each other ’s gardens is a popular pastime with the English. 4. British and American Police Officers Real policemen, both in Britain and the ., hardly recognize any commonpoints between their lives and what they se on TV — if they ever get home in time. Some things are almost the same, of course, but the policemen do not think much of them much of them. The first difference is that a policeman ’s real life deals with the law. Most of what he learns is the law. He has to know actually what actions are against the law and what facts can be used to prove them in court. He has to know nearly as much law as a lawyer, and what ’s more, he has to put it into practice on his feet, in the dark and, running down a narrow street after someone he wants to talk to. Little of his time is spent in talking with beautiful girls or in bravely facing cruel criminals. He will spend most of his working life arranging millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, ordinary people who are guilty--- or not of stupid, unimportant crimes. Useful Words and Expressions: 1. think much of 重视,尊重 2. in court 在法庭上 3. criminal 罪犯,犯罪者 4. guilty 犯罪的,有罪的 5. Living Space How much living space does a person need What happens when his space needs are not met Scientists are doing experiments on rats to try to determine the effects of overcrowded conditions on man. Recent studies have shown that the behavior of rats is greatly affected by space. If rats have enough living space, they eat well, sleep well and produce their young well. But if their living conditions become too crowded, their behavior and even their health change obviously. They can not sleep and eat well, and signs of fear and worry become clear. The more crowded they are, and more they tend to bite each other and even kill each other. Thus, for rats, populations and violence are directly related. Is this a natural law for human society as well Is enough space not only satisfactory, but necessary for human survival These are interesting questions.

There will also be more space for parking cars in cities,and the streets will be less crowded.Three such cars can fit in the space that is now needed for one car of the usual size. The little cars will cost much less to own and to drive.Driving will be safer as these cars can only go 60 kilometers per hour. The cars of the future will be fine for driving around the city.However, they will not be suitable for long trips,because these cars by petrol can only go 450 kilometers before needing to stop for refueling 英语专业四级听写训练53:Dining Custom in the USA Dining Custom in the USA Americans, like many people elsewhere in the world, like to invite friends to their homes for an evening of food,drink and conversation. Formal dinners in fine homes and hotels in the US are much the same as formal dinners anywhere in the world. But as most people in the US have no servants,their dinner parties at home tend to be informal. Guests may sit down at a table,or as many new small homes have no separate dining room or very small dining space. Guests can also serve themselves and eat in the living room, holding their plates or trays on their knees. A more enjoyable form of entertainment is the picnic. Americans are great picnickers and almost every family has a picnic basket. Summer invitations are often for a picnic at a park or in the open countryside, and less hamburgers or hot dogs are cooked over a fire. Picnic food is usually cold.

英语专业四级听写50篇 前言 听写在英语专业四级统考中占有15%的比重,是考试的重要组成部分。 说起听写,正在准备和已经参加过英语专业四级考试的同学会说: “我能明白听写的内容,可写的时候就是跟不上!”“短文大意我明白,可是有的语我不 会写。” 这只反映出了问题的两个方面。一是听写速度不够快。二是词汇量不够或词汇掌握得不够准确。这些无疑是影响听写成绩的重要因素。但是,这些不是问题的全部。在从事听写教学及听写问卷过程中,很容易发现学生失分的具体问题: (1)没听懂,没听好,听写速度跟不上,写出的内容断断续续不连贯,学生因此大量失分; (2)有的词汇没听懂,拼写不够准确,这导致听写失分; (3)时态错误导致失分; (4)单复数不准确导致失分; (5)没有注意断句或专有名词,句子开头单词或专有名词错误使用大小写导致失分; (6)没有注意原文冠词的使用,书写时漏掉冠词导 致失分; (7)没有注意单数第三人称形式导致失分; (8)没有注意单数复数名词的形式导致失分。 上述问题的产生有的是缺乏训练造成的,如书写速度跟不上。有的则是语言基础较 差造成的,如听力较差没有完全听懂或没有掌握好词汇。而单复数、大小写、冠词漏写 等则多是粗心大意造成的。 听写部分能提高吗? 当然能!而且提高的空间很大。 笔者从事英语专业基础教学与研究,从一开始所带的教学班参加四级考试超过全国 院校平均通过率28.2个百分点,超过全国专业外语院校平均通过率12.5个百分点开始,所带的教学班在全国英语专业④级统考中通过率始终ito%,平均成绩、优秀率始终名列 前茅。最近一次所带的教学班参加四级统考,又考出了很好的成绩,通过率超过全国院 校平均水平26石个百分点,超过全国专业外语院校13.6个百分点,而且在十几个平行 班中平均成绩是最高的,优秀人数也是最多的。在四级考试中,听写一项的成绩也不例外,每次均位居第一,本项目满分15分,所带班级平均成绩能够达到14分。 是不是学生基础很好?统计表明,和平行班相比所带班级入学时并不存在什么特别 优势。 教学经验表明,听写成功的关键是训练方法和体现训练方法的训练材料。 听写训练过程中无论是老师还是学生都有必要注意以下几点: 二.扭握淤轿肘虚度大纲要求第一遍用正常速

专四听写与听力理解上外12套模拟题答案6-12 Model Test 6 Authority and Creativity In many countries, authority is seldom questioned, either because it is highly respected, or because it is feared . Sometimes, too, because rank has been important in certain societies for a long time, people have been trained never to question those in authority. In other countries, including America, children are trained to question and search for answers. When a child asks a question, he will often be told to go to the library and find the answer for himself. By the time students reach the age of 14 or 15, they may be developing exciting new ideas in all fields of science and arts . To encourage such creativity, there are many national prizes offered to students every year for their scientific discoveries and artistic accomplishments. This interest in questioning and searching may be considered by some people as bad for young people's manners. This impression may be created when visitors notice young Americans asking questions and arguing with older people . 1-5 CABDB 6-10 DCBDC 11-15 DACBC 16-20 DCADC 21-25 CBDBA 26-30 CDBAC Model Test 7 Driving in the US When driving in the United States, it’s a good idea to have an internaitonal driver’s license if you don’t have a state license. Each of the 50 states has its own traffic laws. For example, in some states drivers can pump their own gas at “self-service islands”, while in others this is not allowed. Drivers are expected to know and understand the laws even if they don’t live in the state. Get information when you cross the border into a state at a tourist information center. There is a national speed limit of 55 miles per hour, or about 80 kilometers per hour. Americans usually start and stop slowly and are generally polite about letting cars enter busy streets. They usually stop for people who are walking and let them cross the street first. In many states, you may turn right after stopping at a corner, even if there a red light. 1-5 DBABB 6-10 CCBBD 11-15 CBACD 16-20 BAACD 21-25 BABBD 26-30 CDADB Model Test 8 Why Do People Smoke

Some do not bite, but just fly around our heads or crawl around our houses and gardens. / Indeed, we do not like most of them except those lovely butterflies. / But insects are interesting. Firstly, they are very old animals. Three hundred and twenty million years ago, there were no man in the world, but there were insects. Today, on every square mile of land there are millions of them flying and crawling about. Secondly, insects are very adaptable to their surroundings, so that today there are about a million different species in the world. Why then do some people try to kill insects? After all, not many of them hurt us. The reason is that they eat so much of man’s food and there are so many of them. (158 words) 2. A Protest against Injustice It all started on a bus one day in 1955. A black woman was returning home from work after a long hard day. She sat near the front of the bus because she was tired and her legs hurt. But in those days, black people could sit only in the back of the bus. So the driver ordered the woman to give up her seat. But the woman refused, and she was arrested. Incidents like this had happened before. But no one had ever spoken out against such treatment of blacks. This time, however, a young black preacher organized a protest. He called on all black citizens to stop riding the buses until the laws were changed. He led the protest movement to end such injustice to the blacks. The protest marked the beginning of the civil rights movement in the United States. (146 words) 3. Foolish Tests Centuries ago, a man accused of a crime / often had to go through a strange test. / In one country, for instance, a metal bar was dropped into boiling oil. / The prisoner had to put his hand into the oil and take out the bar. / It was believed that the oil would not burn an innocent man. / If the prisoner got his hand burned, he would be found guilty of the crime he was accused of. / Another foolish method was used in Europe. / When a man was accused of a crime, he was thrown into a pool or river. / If he floated, people declared that he was guilty. / They took him out of the water and punished him. / However, if the man sank, people claimed that he was innocent. / They pulled him out of the water quickly and released him. / We do not know what would have happened / if the man had learned to swim under the water.

They could only interact with their surroundings as the other lower animals did. When they learned to make fire, however, they became capable of altering their environment. To provide themselves with fuel, they cut down trees. They also burned clearings in forests to increase the growth of grass and to provide a greater grazing area for the wild animals that human beings fed upon. This development led to famp3ing and the domestication of animals. Fire provided the means for cooking plants which had previously been inedible. Only when the process of meeting the basic need for food reached a certain level was it possible for humans to follow other pursuits such as setting up families, fomp3ing societies and founding cities.
