这么做,一个月就过了大学英语四级!

题记:后来,我给猴哥(英语讲师)打电话求救,猴哥无情地打击了我,但也给了中肯的复习建议。我利用好了最后的一个多月时间,顺利通过了大学英语四级(499分)。现在也不怕丢人现眼,将这个分享给大家,希望帮到更多的人!

说实话,我并不在乎学不学得好英语,因为我没怎么想过去畅游世界,或者找一个拉丁美黑白混血的妹子;英语又那么难转化成生产力,学了有个卵用。我只喜欢做一个安静的美男子:摆弄摆弄电脑,看点漫画,写点东西。但后来故事情节发生了变化:从我这一届起,学院要求所有的毕业生过四级,我才开始慌乱。我考了3次挂了3次,心力交瘁。

到去年下半年,我的室友和同学们大都过了四级甚至六级,我开始慌乱和自卑。那段时间,我整天背着书包在北区乱串,不愿意和室友一起打牌一起吃饭,拿着英语单词书也看不进去,觉得妹子嫌弃我就经常吵嘴。我只有12月一次机会了啊,要还过不了就毕不了业(后来才知道是没有学位证),先不说找工作的事,愧对父母愧对列祖列宗啊!想过买答案,想过逃学,更想撞墙

……

猴哥先是无情地打击我。猴哥说,要是你想买答案过四级,建议你就不用考啦,我丈母娘更年期超了十几年,升教授时都过了B级,你还买答案,丢不丢人?其次,现在找工作面试时,人家都会问英语过了几级,你好意说,你四级差了点?甚至有些HR动不动就飚几句英语,要是没听懂,不是白长这么帅?

猴哥接着给我讲道理。他说,前几天他去一个楼盘看房,售楼部的销售顾问一直在骂他们老板,只会高规格盖大楼,不会做广告,所以他们没钱赚。他听了这儿以后,就果断和媳妇商定,首付了这里的一套房子。猴哥说,你以为我在和你瞎掰啊,我是想说,现在的四六级教辅书和我举的这个例子恰恰相反,你们用的四六级备考资料,多数是广告吹出来的,哪有实际作用?学生语言基础差,不注重基础训练,怎们看懂文章?谈何答对题?查字典认识词汇,查语法书读懂句子,就得多少时间?……去买一本【巨微英语】《四级真题·逐句解析》,先逐词逐句研究四级真题文章,恶补四级句法和词汇;然后在考前狂练真题,查漏补缺。我的学生都在用。利用好最后这40天,超过250*2不敢说,及格是完全没问题的。

我按猴哥给的建议,购买了巨微英语《四级真题·逐句解析》,并将剩余的40天时间分为两个阶段:

第一阶段:(11.8 -12.8)夯实句法和词汇,建立自信(9套逐句精解)

整体安排:我2天学习完一套逐句精解,完全搞透每篇文章的语法,反复识记书中注释的大纲词汇(心里默念,笔在纸上写)。周内每天坚持学习3小时(偶尔有课,所以多数安排在8:20-10:20和15:30-17:30时间段内);周末坚持全天学习(8:30-12:30;13:30-17:30)。

两周内我完成了9套逐句精解的学习。第3周我开始了9套逐句精解的第二轮学习。这一轮学习一开始,我就感觉轻松了很多,读完一段之后,基本不看英汉对照,就知道每段在讲什么;有些生词偶尔反应不过来,但觉得它是熟识的。这一阶段虽然很累,但我感觉到了青春的力量,也看到了希冀!!

特殊安排:每天7:30-8:00,背诵一篇模板范文(12套真题试卷的答案解析里有,黑白印刷的那个),觉得写的精彩的句子,就反复背诵,必要时摘抄下来;每天20:00-21:00,练习1套听力。反复听,用笔圈出自己认为是关键信息的地方。猴哥说了,听力部分一定要坚持听,并且要学会手脑并用,不然说的再好都是白搭;每周练习1-2套题的翻译(练习多了就会发现,常考的语法和句型,其实就那么多,并不是很难。猴哥还调侃说,这一部分要突击比较困难,你将来也不当希拉里·克林顿的首席翻译,所以遇见看半天都不会的句子,学会放一放。

第二阶段:(12.8-12.16)考前疯狂刷题,查漏补缺(12套真题试卷及解析)

整体安排:每天坚持练习一套真题,查漏补缺的同时,培养考试状态。这个过程我重视了三个方面因素:第一,把控时间,按时完成试题每个部分。猴哥调侃我说,平时练习时都不卡时间做题,考场上你手抖呀抖,根本做不完(备注:《四级真题·逐句精解》的12套试卷上有每部分答题时间);第二,查漏补缺,恶补漏掉了的重要词汇、语法等内容。

第三,结合12套真题的解析思路,琢磨不同题型的快速应对方法。在这一个过程中,我发现我的英语其实并不差。挨过了高考的人能有多差?只是我没有挑战和坚持而已!

特殊安排:每天7:30-8:00之间,听VOA或者BBC广播;每2天写一篇100字左右的短文,语句通顺就行。

就这样子过了40天,我最终过了四级。毕业在即,我想我可以顺利拿到学位证书。同时,我比以前更加自信,因为我开始懂得:青春就是一场奋斗!谢谢巨微英语!

还有,我觉得还是不请猴哥吃拉面了吧,起码得请吃顿海底捞,猴哥是大恩人啊!还没考过的伙计们,选用巨微英语吧,加油!

Seneca's thinking is still applicable today 问题:What are researchers rediscovering through their studies 解析:问题题干中的“researchers”和“today”是解题的关键,对应到文中第一段的“Now scientists are bringing this ancient wisdom up-to-date”。选项中“Seneca’s thinking “ 对应到“this ancient wisdom” ,而“still applicable”对应到“bring…up-to-date”,故答案为A。 47.B. It is a teaching tool under development 问题:What do we learn about “Betty’s Brain”? 解析:根据“Betty’s Brian”定位,定位到第三段,而该段的段首便强调“ But the most cutting-edge tool under development is the “teaching agent” “ ,意味着整段文字要叙述的主要是和“ tool “有关的信息,且选项中的”under development”和原文信息重合,故答案为B。 48 C.

As a manager, Tiffany is responsible for interviewing applicants for some of the positions with her company .During one interview, she noticed that the candidate never made direct eye contact. She was puzzled and somewhat disappointed because she liked the individual otherwise. He had a perfect resume and gave good responses to her questions, but the fact that he never looked her in the eye said “untrustworthy,” so she decided to offer the job to her second choice. “It wasn’t until I attended a diversity workshop that I realized the person we passed over was the perfect person,” Tiffany confesses. What she hadn’t known at the time of the interview was that the candidate’s “different” behavior was simply a cultural misunderstanding . He was an Asian-American raised in a household where respect for those in authority was shown by averting(避开) your eyes. “I was just thrown off by the lack of ye contact; not realizing it was cultural,” Tiffany says. “I missed out ,but will not miss that opportunity again.” Many of us have had similar encounters with behaviors we perceive as different. As the world becomes smaller and our workplaces more diverse, it is becoming essential to expand our under-standing of others and to reexamine some of our false assumptions . Hire Advantage At a time when hiring qualified people is becoming more difficult ,employers who can eliminate invalid biases(偏爱) from the process have a distinct advantage .My company, Mindsets LLC ,helps organizations and individuals see their own blind spots . A real estate recruiter we worked with illustrates the positive difference such training can make .

For questions 1-7, choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). For question 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage. Colleges taking another look at value of merit-based aid Good grades and high tests scores still matter—a lot—to many colleges as they award financial aid. But with low-income students projected to make up an ever-larger share of the college-bound population in coming years, some schools are re-examining whether that aid, typically known as “merit aid”, is the most effective use of precious institutional dollars. George Washington University in Washington, D.C., for example, said last week that it would cut the value of its average merit scholarships by about one-third and reduce the number of recipients(接受者), pouring the savings, about $2.5 million, into need-based aid. Allegheny College in Meadville, Pa., made a similar decision three years ago. Now, Hamilton College in Clinton, N.Y., says it will phase out merit scholarships altogether. No current merit-aid recipients will lose their scholarships, but need-based aid alone will be awarded beginning with students entering in fall 2008. Not all colleges offer merit aid; generally, the more selective a school, the less likely it is to do so. Harvard and Princeton, for example, offer generous need-based packages, but many families who don’t meet need eligibility(资格)have been willing to pay whatever they must for a big-name school. For small regional colleges that struggle just to fill seats, merit aid can be an important revenue-builder because many recipients still pay enough tuition dollars over and above the scholarship amount to keep the institution running. But for rankings-conscious schools in between, merit aid has served primarily as a tool to recruit top students and to improve their academic profits. “They’re trying to buy students,”says Skidmore College economist Sandy Baum. Studies show merit aid also tends to benefit disproportionately students who could afford to enroll without it. “As we look to the future, we see a more pressing need to invest in need-based aid,”says Monica Inzer, dean of admission and financial aid at Hamilton, which has offered merit scholarships for 10 years. During that time, it rose in US News & World Repor t’s ranking of the best liberal arts colleges, from 25 to 17. Merit aid, which benefited about 75 students a year, or about 4% of its student body, at a cost of about $ 1 million a year, “served us well,”Inzer says, but “to be
