Free Online Test Targets English Learners

A. A private company has just launched what it calls "the world's first free standardized English

test." Anyone with an internet connection can take the test for free. The new exam is called the EFSET, which is short for Education First Standardized English Test. The company, Education First, is known by the letters EF. It operates schools and offices in more than 50 countries.

B.Minh Tran is EF's Director of Research and Academic Partnerships. He estimates there are

two billion English language learners worldwide. Many of them are interested in attending an American college or university. To do so, foreign students need to take the Test of English as

a Foreign Language – better known as TOEFL. Tran says many foreigners are not wealthy

enough to take the TOEFL, which can cost more than $250. In addition, test takers often have to travel overnight to reach an official testing site. For example, it costs $175 to take the TOEFL Internet-based test in Cambodia. The World Bank says the average Cambodian worker earns only about $1,000 per year. That means the cost of taking the TOEFL is about

17.5 percent of the average worker's yearly wages.

C.It is not just individuals who find the test pricey. Some governments find the costs to be

prohibitive. Mr. Tran says EF is in talks with education ministries in several countries. He hopes governments will use the EFSET to test millions of employees and students. He notes that not everyone needs official results from the TOEFL or IELTS – the International English Language Testing System. "Well, it depends on who you are. If you are a beginner, or if you are someone who does not need to send your certified English scores to a third party, such as

a school or an employer or immigration officer, then I would say the EFSET serves a unique

function."

D.Mr. Tran believes that EFSET meets the highest values in language testing. The test has been

through years of research and psychometric analysis. Psychometrics is the method or process of mental measurement. The new test was tested, or piloted, on thousands of students. The EFSET uses special computer software that makes the questions easier or harder, depending on one's performance. The EFSET measures all English levels, while the IELTS and TOEFL only measure from moderate to advanced.

E."The EFSET is unique and innovative and really groundbreaking in the sense that it gives

free online access very much like a MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) would to anyone who interested in measuring their English proficiency level."There is a 50-minute and a two-hour version of the test, which its developers are calling the EFSET Plus. Both versions test only reading and listening skills. Will speaking and writing questions be added in the future? Mr. Tran is hopeful.

F."That's a very good question, and a question that our experts are working on right now. There

are many ways that you can test productive skills -- speaking and writing. What's difficult is standardizing those assessments and making sure the different graders have the same

reliability and listening to the same samples or reading the same sample that they have the same score."

G.IELTS and TOEFL still use humans to rate the speaking and writing sections. So far, no

software program can measure speaking and writing ability as well as a human being. It is too early to know if colleges and universities will accept EFSET results for admission. Julie Soper is Assistant Director of International Admissions at American University in Washington, DC. She finds the concept of a free online English test interesting but she also has some reservations.

H."It's very intriguing. I like the idea that it's free and that it's easy to access—that's a huge deal

for students who are maybe in areas where they can't get to a TOEFL, can't get to an IELTS.

So that's great. But, with it being online, I mean of course there's the question of being able to properly validate the person's identity and have that security around that test score. And then, additionally, with not having all of the components of the exam that TOEFL and IELTS have

I just wonder about it. I have not done any research on my own about it, so just am curious."

I.Even without a speaking and writing section, some English language teachers are hopeful

about the new test. Mark Dever is an English Language Fellow at the Police Language School in Indonesia's capital."This test has great potential. This test can help those with fewer resources. For too long those who could afford the (TOEFL) courses were the ones that passed. This test has a chance to help the teachers inside the classroom as well because it's an easy, free way for me to assess the level of my students, along with a way to perform a quick, free needs analysis for them as well."

J.EF offers the test for free as a way to advertise other EF products to possible users. The test was launched last month and tens of thousands of students have taken it. Tran says feedback from students has been good. Time will tell whether this new test is a game-changer in the standardized test industry.

1.EF has many branches in more than fifty countries all over the world.

2.Foreign students with the intention of attending American universities should have to take

the language test in a certain place.

3.Both individuals and some governments think that the cost of taking the TOEFL is high.

4.Minh Tran says, as for English beginners, or those who do not need official results from the

TOEFL or IELTS, EFSET can be used to test their English level.

5.EFSET may have a wider range of application than the IELTS and TOEFL in testing English

level.

6.There are two versions of EFSET. And both versions do not cover productive skills ---

speaking and writing at present.

7.Whether EFSET results will be admitted by colleges and universities is still in question now.

8.EFSET differs from TOEFL or IELTS in test contents.

9.EFSET may have a bright future due to its advantages over TOEFL or IELTS.

10.T hough it was not long before it was on the market, it has been used tens of thousands of

students.

[四六级] 不得不看：英语四级考试快速阅读解题步骤

[四六级] 不得不看：英语四级考试快速阅读解题步骤作者：潇如风我这篇帖子，同学们照着一步一步做就是了，老师们照着一步一步教就是了。首先要明白：快速阅读的文章虽长（1200字，仔细阅读平均每篇330个字），但是从内容上说，大都是通俗易懂的说明文，没有学术色彩和思想深度；从语言上来说，遣词造句都比较简单。所以，根本没必要害怕。个人以为，快速阅读应该比仔细阅读更容易拿分。具体答题步骤如下：第一步：浏览Skim ( 0。5分钟–2分钟) 1．分析大标题（Brainstorm the Title）（5 –10秒）目的：调动脑细胞，主动预测文章内容。官方样题Landfills 的分析思路：land + fill = 土地填埋，加了s, 可能指多处填埋场地。在不认识这个单词的情况下（汉译：垃圾填筑地），能想到这一层就算漂亮。 2006年12月真题Six Secrets of High-Energy People的分析思路：secrets：多数人不知道，一定新颖有趣；high-energy people 只能是指精力充沛的人，不可能是X战警。文章要告诉我们，那些人

为什么精力充沛，希望我们学习他们的秘诀。 2006年6月真题Highways的分析思路：为什么要修建公路？怎么修建？公路有哪些功能？存在哪些问题？一般说明文的写作结构都是如此：计划–成形–功能–问题。例如：联合国的起因–联合国的成立–联合国的运作–联合国的问题。 2．分析小标题(Tidy the Subtitles）(20 –25秒) 目的：了解文章内容，把握总体结构。官方样题： Sub 1：How Much Trash Is Generated? 一看该段字数少，忽视 Sub 2：How Is Trash Disposed of? 关键字：处理 Sub 3：What Is a Landfill? 引进主题，字数增加，进入重点。推理：landfill 肯定是上面提到的一种垃圾处理方法 Sub 4：Proposing the Landfill Landfill由新信息变成已知信息。关键字：Proposing 计划、建议 Sub 5：Building the Landfill 关键字：Building 修建注意：前一段讲计划，这一段讲修建，联系紧密，可以合并 Sub 6：What happens to Trash in a Landfill? 关键字：What happens；字数少，忽视 Sub 7：How Is a Landfill Operated? 关键字：Operated 如何

提升英语阅读速度4个好方法

提升英语阅读速度4个好方法提升英语阅读速度4个好方法 1.快速泛读平时要养成快速泛读的习惯。这里讲的泛读是指广泛阅读大量涉及不同领域的书籍，要求读得快、理解和掌握书中的主要内容就可以了。要确定一个明确的读书定额，定额要结合自己的实际，切实可行，可多可少。平时可以加以训练，例如每天读一篇奇速英语官网上的时文，一个学期以18周计算，就可以读126篇文章。 2.计时阅读课余要养成计时阅读的习惯。计时阅读每次进行5～10分钟即可，不宜太长。因为计时快速阅读，精力高度集中，时间一长，容易疲劳，精力分散反而乏味。奇速英语时文阅读有自动计时，帮助你不断提高阅读速度。 3.略读略读又称跳读或浏览，是一种专门的，非常实用的快速阅读技能。所谓略读，是指以尽可能快的速读阅读，如同从飞机上鸟瞰地面上的明显标志一样，迅速获取文章大意或中心思想。换句话说，略读是要求读者有选择地进行阅读，可跳过某些细节，以求抓住文章的大概，从而加快阅读速度。据统计，训练有素的略读者的阅读速度可以达到每分钟3000到4000个词。 4.寻读寻读又称查读，同略读一样，寻读也是一种快速阅读技巧。熟练的读者善于运用寻读获得具体信息，以提高阅读效率。寻读是一种从大量的资料中迅速查找某一项具体事实或某一项特定信息，如人物、事件、时间、地点、数字等，而对其它无关部分则略去不读的

快速阅读方法。运用这种方法，读者就能在最短的时间内掠过尽可能多的印刷材料，找到所需要的信息。例如，在车站寻找某次列车或汽车的运行时刻，在机场寻找某次班机的`飞行时刻，在图书馆查找书刊的目录，在文献中查找某一日期、名字、数字或号码等，都可以运用这种方法。如果平时的英语阅读速度太慢，那么在考试中就会明显的觉得吃力，有的同学说，知道自己的阅读速度慢，就拼命的记单词，但是结果却并没有自己想象的那么好。

大学英语四级答题技巧汇总

大学英语四级答题技巧汇总快速阅读技巧(第一篇) 15分钟做完，先看小标题（先只看2-3个，多了也记不住），再通过1-7小题的题干的名词、动词找出原句来做，特别注意：做题顺序，先看文章标题，直到文章主要内容，然后看第一小题，在小题部分的定位词先圈出来，再回原文找。找到第一小题后，再看第二小题。看一个题，做一个；不要把文章看完再做题，或题看完再读文章。特别注意：比较容易定位的词是： A.不能用中心思想词定位，因为整篇文章都说的是它。 B.时间、数字、地点、大写字母的单词容易定位。 C.比较长，难的名词容易定位，好找。 D.定位词找2-3个就行，多了也记不住。最好是位置不同的两个词。一般判断N和NG的标准如下: NO题: (l)信息与原文相反(2)将原文信息张冠李戴 (3)将原文中不确定的或未经证实的内容作为正确的或客观的来表述 (4)改变原文的条件、范围、频率、可能性等 NG题: (l)无中生有(2)以个别代替整体，即将原文所举例子的特殊现象推广为普遍现象 (3)随意比较原文中提到的两个事物(4)将原文具体化，即题目中涉及的范围小于原文涉及的范围 (5)原文中作者或某个人物的目标、目的、愿望、誓言等内容，在题目中作为客观事实陈述快速阅读技巧(第二篇) 解决办法：掌握正确的阅读方法考生平时阅读一般会采取两种阅读方法。一种是先看文章后看问题；另一种是先看问题，带着问题读文章。那么究竟哪一种方法比较好呢？笔者认为还是先看问题后读文章比较好。原因在于，先看问题，你可以熟悉出题人的出题角度。并且有题干，你可以划出题干的关键词，先看问题后刊文章的好处就在于，可以通过问题先把上述“核心词”在原文中划出，然后再读文章的过程中，一旦独到，注意历史高度集中的，这样有助于提高做题的准确性。由此得出正确的阅读方法就是“五步阅读法”：第一步，扫描题干抓关键。即首先看选项，划出题干中的的关键词。题干关键词包括：数字、人名地名、专有名词、引号里的词语等等。第二步，快速浏览全文，把握文章主旨大意标重点。即快速浏览文章。在快速浏览文章的时候，不需要每一个单词和句子都读得懂，没有时间也没有这个必要。在第二步的过程中，考生们所要做的就是首先弄清楚这篇文章的中心思想是什么；其次，用笔在试卷上面标记出考试要考的重点。那么很多考生就会问，如何把握文章的主旨大意，如何标记文章的重点呢？首先，把握文章的主旨大意。要解决这个问题，需要分两步走。第一步，仔细阅读文章的首末段的首末句。因为英语文章段落结构上面我已经讲过。此外，西方人说话向来喜欢开门见山。所以英语文章段落70%都是一上来交待作者的写作目的或意图。第二步，要仔细阅读其他个段落的首句。然后把这两步综合起来，英语文章的主旨大意就可以把握住。其次，如何标注文章的重点。英语文章的重点主要有以下几点： 1.强转折：通常由“but, yet, however”引导。因为转折的作用一般来说是对前面的否定，对后面的肯定，因此转折词后面引导的成分往往是出题人容易出题的地方。特别是在文章中出现but。

二、常用阅读方法 1、略读（skimming）略读的目的是快速通读和浏览全文，以便获得文章的大意，并对文章的内容有个总体概念和印象。因此，浏览时不要把注意力放在文章的细节上，同时文章中某些不重要的内容可以省略不读。通常根据文章内容和难度可灵活选用如下三种方法： 1）以一般快读的速度阅读文章每段的第一句。文章的大意通常是由各段落中主题句表述出来，多数主题句是段落的第一句。该法适用于主题句位于段首的文章，利于根据题目要求迅速判断、确定文章的中心、主题。例：选出下题的正确答案： The best title for this selection is _____. A) An Ear for Music B) Music Appreciation C) How Muscles Participate in Mental Acts D) A Psychological Definition of the Thinking Process 显然，此题为主题型，可在确立了文章的主题之后做出正确的选择。因此可以先读文章每段的第一句，再将它们综合得出全文的主题。（1）Some psychologists maintain that mental acts such as thinking are not performed in the brain alone, but that one’s muscles also participate. It may be said that we think with our muscles in somewhat the same way that we listen to music with our bodies. （2）You surely are not surprised to be told that you usually listen to music not only with your ears but with your whole body. Few people can listen to music that is more or less familiar without moving their body or, more specifically, some part of their body. Often when one listens to a symphonic concert on the radio, he is tempted to direct the orchestra (music band ) even though he knows there is a competent conductor on the job. （3）Strange as this behavior may be, there is a very good reason for it. One cannot derive all possible enjoyment from music unless he participates, so to speak, in its performance. The listener “feels”himself into the music with more or less pronounce motions of his body. （4）The muscles of the body actually participate in the mental process of thinking in the same way, but this participation is less obvious because it is less pronounced. 分析：（1）是全文的主题句，要阐述的主题是“心理活动不仅只是由大脑进行的，人的肌肉也参与了这一过程。”（思=脑+心）（2）-（4）是论据，其中（2）用事例法支持（1）的观点。（3）对（2）进行解释，从而得出（4）中的结论。同时（4）紧扣（1），表述了同样的观点。由此可得正确答案是C。用此方法，不仅可准确地找到主题，而且可以有效地提高速度，节约时间。 2）以一般速度阅读文章第一段或最后一段, 以一般快读速度阅读文章每段的第一句。有时作者会在第一段便写出文章将要论述的主题思想或内容梗概，也会在最后一段归纳前几段的内容。此法适用于难度稍大的文章或主题出现在全文两端的文章。例如： The modern sailing ship was developed by a man who never went to sea. He was

英语四级快速阅读原文出处及答案(2011年12月)

What is Integrity? "Integrity" is defined as "adherence to moral and ethical principles; honesty."The key to integrity is consistency--not only setting high personal standards for oneself (honesty, r esponsibility, respect for others, fairness) but also living up to those standards each day. One who has integrity is bound by and follows moral and ethical standards even when m aking life's hard choices, choices which may be clouded by stress, pressure to succeed, or temptation. What happens if we lie, cheat, steal, or violate other ethical standards? We feel disap pointed in ourselves and ashamed. But a lapse of integrity also affects our relationships w ith others. Trust is essential in any important relationship, whether personal or professional. Who can trust someone who is dishonest or unfair? Thus, integrity must be one of our most important goals. Risky Business We are each responsible for our own decisions, even if the decision-making process has been undermined by stress or peer pressure. The real test of character is whether we can learn from our mistake, by understanding why we acted as we did, and then explorin g ways to avoid similar problems in the future. Making ethical decisions is a critical part of avoiding future problems. We must learn to recognize risks, because if we can't see the risks we're taking, we can't make responsi ble choices. To identify risks, we need to know the rules and be aware of the facts.

大学英语四级考试中快速阅读的答题技巧一：测试目的快速阅读，顾名思义，它的目的在于测试考生单位时间当中的阅读量，其实四级对速度的考查是近几年一直延续的一种结果。在2002年的时候，我们四级阅读平均每一篇文章阅读量是284个单词，2003年6月，每篇文章阅读量是300个单词。2005年一月份和六月份，平均阅读量是320到333个单词。这说明一点，四级考试委员会对阅读速度这个能力早就有一个延续性的逐步的提高。同时，在解答题目方面，快速阅读并不强调一定要像精读文章那样通篇认真研究，相反，快速阅读题目更强调测试考生在实践语言环境中查询有效信息的能力，这也反映出四六级考试试图提升考生实际应用能力的改革方向。二：测试形式快速阅读要求考生在15分钟内完成一篇1100字左右的文章和后面的10道题。前面7个题是判断正误（包括NOT GIVEN），后3个是填空题填根据阅读的理解，填三到四个单词（答案基本都是原文中出现的原词）。快速阅读的文章一般分为小标题+题目和无小标题+题目两种类型。这反映出四级考试从单纯的模仿托福的形式转向托福和雅思学习的融合。该题型需要通过略读和寻读法，乃至文章逻辑关系、标点符/号等方面的综合运用，实现对随后的题目有效的判断和填写。三：基本要求 1.快速阅读的文章基本都是专业题材的文章，很多考生可能会觉得很陌生，但是对于CET-4 的快速阅读开始来说，只要求考生对题目所提到的信息在原文中能够找到即可，只是有时需要简单的同义词替换 2.略读（Skimming）和寻读（Scanning）的能力在大学英语四级考试中显得尤为重要 3.快速阅读要求考生的阅读速度是每分钟110-140词
