Little roast ducks, come to class on the bench!

abstract

There are still two months before the exam. Are you ready? Although we all know that it is early to prepare for the IELTS test, many small partners are often delayed by various things, and only one or two months are left before they start to worry.

So, short preparation time is really hopeless? Of course not. There are short-term preparation methods. Let's take a look. If the preparation time is only two months, how to prepare more efficiently?

There are four IELTS tests, including listening, speaking, reading and writing. No matter when and which subject to prepare for the exam, the correct and efficient preparation method is the most effective. Next, we look at how to prepare for the exam from four aspects: vocabulary, listening, speaking, reading and writing.

vocabulary

Vocabulary is a part that can't be ignored at any stage in the whole preparation process, and it is the basis of listening, speaking, reading and writing. Therefore, we need to be familiar with IELTS vocabulary. If you only have two months, you can definitely go through the vocabulary 4-5 times before the exam to deepen your impression.

There is also a way to remember vocabulary, which does not require everyone to remember according to the traditional vocabulary memory model. That will not only make the impression not deep enough, but also make students forget it easily, and make them feel bored, and the effect is not ideal.

It is highly recommended to play IELTS vocabulary books here, and recite vocabulary through high-frequency repetition according to people's memory rules to achieve the best learning effect. Our vocabulary books are all sorted automatically, so that when learning new words, we can also review the words we have seen before. Memorizing words is by reading a large number of words quickly and repeating them at high frequency.

read

If the friends only have two months to prepare for the exam, then what they need to do in reading is to practice more. Master the correct way of IELTS reading, and then do more exercises. If you do one set every week during the two-month preparation period, you can complete two books, that is, eight sets of questions.

In this process, the most important thing is not the quantity of practice, but the quality. After finishing a set of questions, you must reflect on what problems you have and what kind of questions you can't do because of lack of time. Some students may still have difficulty in understanding sentences and weak grammar foundation, but at this time you don't have time to study grammar specially, so you can only check and fill in the gaps from the real questions.

It is also important to make good use of time. One hour, three articles and forty questions, an average of 20 minutes for an article, time is tight. If an article takes too long, it will not only affect the following articles, but also affect the accuracy of the current article invisibly.

Then, if there is an article that has not been finished within the time limit, I suggest you put it down first and then do the following article. Then when doing the following article, you should cherish your time, try to finish it ahead of time, and leave some time for unfinished topics.

aural comprehension

During the two-month preparation time for listening, what you need to do is to practice the real questions, listen carefully to the real questions, and try to hear every sentence of the practiced article. But before that, an essential step in listening is to learn the phonetic phenomena in English, such as linking, abbreviation and omission, because these are fundamental problems.

If you don't master this knowledge, how many times do you listen to real audio? If you change to other articles, some contents are still unrecognizable. So, how to practice this series of processes? Five-step intensive listening is recommended here.

The intensive listening steps here are divided into five steps: pre-listening to the original, dictation word by word, translation of the original, follow-up training and intensive listening to the original.

1

The purpose of listening to the original text is to familiarize you with audio, and also to test your mastery of audio before training.

2

The step of recording new words is to let everyone inquire and record new words after reading an article, so as to eliminate the hearing obstacles caused by new words at the beginning.

three

The purpose of translating the original text is to let everyone better grasp the usage and meaning of each word in the audio. There are often some words and phrases that look simple, but when you do it yourself, you feel that you can't start, and you can't speak Chinese fluently. So you have to do it yourself to master it more firmly.

When we practice listening, we should accurately grasp all the contents of the audio and know how each sentence is formed, so that whenever we hear similar sentence usage in the future, it can be well reflected.

four

The follow-up training of product design is divided into: primary follow-up, intermediate follow-up and advanced follow-up. Before these three steps, we should first mark the audio materials for link stress and be familiar with the common link phenomena in English, which is very helpful for us to practice follow-up.

The three steps of primary, intermediate and advanced follow-up are from easy to difficult. First, practice following up sentence by sentence. When this step is practiced skillfully, we can follow up the full-length draft. This follow-up process is the process of our continuous practice of sound discrimination.

five

After all the previous steps are completed, the students will reach the last step, that is, intensive listening, which is set by our system for 20 times. The purpose of this is to expand everyone's meaning response unit.

In front of students, they have done translation and follow-up training, and they know the meaning of every sentence. What they lack now is that they can immediately reflect its Chinese meaning when they hear English, so they should listen more.

Oral writing ability

The preparation materials for writing and speaking are relatively concentrated. If you are preparing for the exam in the last two months, you must make good use of the basic information on hand. The oral and writing topics that have appeared in the last three months and the most likely high-frequency topics are the focus of your practice.

Speaking of it, the topics and topics to be tested in a certain period of time are fixed, and you only need to practice on these topics. If there is not enough time, you should read every topic. Some materials can be reused. You should make sure that you have something to say on any topic and there will be no silence.

So, how to ensure that you have something to say and what kind of training methods to follow? Let's take a look at Rambo's intelligent oral training system, and each step will give you specific process instructions and guidance.

The same is true of writing. Although the topics are not fixed, they are relatively fixed, and the corresponding topics under each topic often have some similarities. In other words, the material that can be used for writing is * * *.

In this case, you can also prepare some expressions and materials for the typical topics under each topic, so that you can change with the changes.

In addition, the topic types in the writing part of the exam are regular. You can pay attention to the machine classics we broadcast every time, which will have high-frequency topics and can also provide you with a preparation idea. Then the writing part is specific to how to prepare for each topic, writing ideas, structural framework and so on. I suggest that you can use our writing preparation method of Rambo. The specific process is shown in the following figure:

The above is the method we summarized for preparing for IELTS in two months. You can prepare IELTS according to the above contents, which I believe will be helpful to the students.
