范例中考點內容分別為:5. 課程名稱? 6. 時間長度? 7-8. 課程等級? 9. 測試內容

實戰(zhàn)錦囊:場景衍生。除了學校選課,考試還會出現(xiàn)一些其他類型的課程介紹和選擇場景。例如Cambridge 4 Test 3 Section 1 講到further education,關于繼續(xù)教育的課程選擇及相關問題。

去校園各個地方的路線圖

分析發(fā)現(xiàn),地圖題在現(xiàn)今考試中頻頻出現(xiàn),這種題型在校園場景,旅游場景和科普場景中均有出現(xiàn)。而與其他場景下的地圖題不同的是,在校園場景下的地圖會涉及到相應和建筑物相關的校園場景詞匯,例如,Study Hall, Dining Hall, Residence Hall, Bookstore等。如下圖所示:

實戰(zhàn)錦囊:該場景下的地圖題所涉及到的校園場景詞匯可以有效幫助大家在聽題過程中更好地進行定位;同時能幫助縮小答案的預測范圍。同樣,掌握了校園類地圖題,其他場景的地圖題均可迎刃而解。

考點之三: 實際困難解決

在國外大學學習,肯定會碰到各種各樣的問題,從學習到生活。因此,很多學校會邀請老師、領導或擁有一定大學生生活及人生發(fā)展等經驗的學生做講座。通常以解決新生生活、學習上的難題為目的,讓新生了解大學這個陌生的環(huán)境,在他們生活上、心理上、樹立人生目標上等給予一定的導航。

Cambridge5 Test3 Sction2對留學生在宿舍申請和語言學習兩方面的常見問題和注意點進行展開:

Choose the correct letter, A B or C.

16. The speaker says international students at UK will be

A offered accommodation with local families.

B given special help by their lecturers.

C expected to work independently.

17. What does the speaker say about university accommodation on campus?

A Most places are given to undergraduates.

B No places are available for postgraduates with families.

C A limited number of places are available for new postgraduates

18. Students wishing to live off-campus should apply

A several months in advance.

B two or three weeks in advance.

C at the beginning of term

19. The university accommodation officer will

A send a list of agents for students to contact.

B contact accommodation agencies for students

C? ensure that students have suitable accommodation.

20. With regard to their English, the speaker advises the students to

A tell their lecturers if they have problems understanding.

B have private English lessons when they arrive.

C practice their spoken English before they arrive

范例中16題對于留學生在異鄉(xiāng)的環(huán)境變化提問,原文you will be in an environment where independent learning is the norm即可推斷出答案為C;17-19均是圍繞宿舍申請展開,主要提供給學生一些tips, 例如18題,如果想要申請學校宿舍那么必須盡早,原文中提到if you’re starting in October you need to be thinking about it in June or at the very latest July. 因此答案是A。

實戰(zhàn)錦囊:分析認為,考點一般集中在講述異鄉(xiāng)留學所碰到的一些問題,比如學習方法、語言障礙、文化差異等等。其實像這樣的場景內容,我們與其說是在備考雅思,不如說是在備考今后的留學生活。
