Fast reading requires practice and attention to rhythm and composition. There are two methods here, one is skimming and the other is cluster reading.

Some adverbials, clauses and modifiers can be ignored when reading quickly. Therefore, when reading quickly, an article of 1000 words can be read only about 10 sentences, and you can get a glimpse of the whole article.

Intensive reading requires an understanding of English grammar, and of course the memory of words.

For grammar, it is relatively easy to master. Knowing the modifiers, adverbials and clauses in a sentence, we can extract the trunk of the sentence.

The method of memorizing words can only vary from person to person. Because there are many synonyms for elegant thinking, it is best to read Ying Ying's dictionary and remember English in English. Also pay attention to the structure of words.

And guessing words requires a sense of language and the ability to observe and think. This is also very important.

Therefore, in preparing for IELTS, besides doing the questions, it is more important to be familiar with English in order to save your strength. Therefore, you have to contact a considerable number of English articles every day.

As for doing the problem, there are three steps here.

1. Search engine: What is emphasized here is the determination and memory of search terms.

2. Scanning articles: similar to camera scanning, scanning into memory, comprehensive, fast and meticulous.

3. Lianliankan: What is emphasized here is the combination of the first two.

In addition, you must take something when you do the problem. After all, IELTS questions are different. Foreigners are not easy to fool.

Introduction and learning methods of IELTS listening

1. The recording of IELTS listening is only played once.

Speak quickly and have more content. Band 4 listening:120-150; Band 6 listening:160-180; IELTS: 220-300.

2. Ten minutes to fill in the answer.

3. Diversification of problems

Top ten problems: Disadvantages: Unfamiliar problems are good: less difficult.

(1) multiple-choice questions, (2) fill-in-the-blank questions, (3) true-false questions, (4) question-and-answer questions, (5) connection questions, (6) picture questions, (7) picture examples, (8) map questions, (9) general form questions and (10).

4. Internationalization of accent

The pronunciation of IELTS listening shows an international trend. Many common English accents are often used in the four parts of listening. This is another great difficulty for China students who are only familiar with a certain accent.

5. Time: Listening is divided into four parts, and the topics of each exam range from 38 to 42 small questions. At present, there are generally 40 small questions. During the exam, the listening time is about 25 minutes to 30 minutes, and students need to do the questions while listening to the tape. After the recording, there is still 10 minutes for candidates to fill in the answers on the answer sheet.

6. Rating: The listening part, with a maximum score of 9, has a half-point system (listening and reading are half-points, but speaking and writing are not half-points). 9 points: 38-40; 8 points: 33-37; 7 points: 28-32; 6 points: 24-31; 5 points: 18-23. Scoring requirements: 4.5/5 for immigrants; 6/6.5 points for studying abroad.

7. Recommended vocabulary book: IELTS Vocabulary Selection (World Book Publishing House); Memory process of 150 words every day (early, middle and late)

8. How to improve listening:

Thinking of solving problems: reading, guessing and dictation.

Reading: Know what the question is and what the answer is, and underline the core keywords.

Guess: Listen to this content if you know what is missing.

Listen: Listen sentence by sentence and write the key words while listening.

Write: short, but it should be recoverable.

Check: Check spelling and grammar errors.

1). Pay attention to the combination of intensive listening and extensive listening, only intensive but not extensive: only trees are seen, but forests are not seen; Only general but not precise: specious, not asking for a solution.

In elegant thinking, candidates should not only accurately listen to important data, years, names and places, but also grasp the general idea of the article, which requires the combination of intensive listening and extensive listening and alternate practice.

Intensive listening: first of all, you should be familiar with the new words in the listening materials, and you can listen to these difficult sentences repeatedly; And extensive listening should first be heavy, just grasp the main idea, you don't need to know every detail, and there is no limit to the number of intensive listening until you fully understand it.

Extensive listening: first, give yourself a positioning of English level, and then choose appropriate materials. Generally, the process of extensive listening should not exceed three times, otherwise the meaning of extensive listening will be lost. When you listen extensively, you should do it in one go. If you read a book and then listen to the tape, it is often not your ears that are discriminating sounds, but your brain that is thinking and reciting. If you listen to written materials, you often read them silently, so that your listening can't be improved and you won't understand when you meet new materials. Candidates must make this balance by themselves. Generally speaking, first listen blindly (that is, don't look at the material), and then look at the material after you don't understand it or listen to it many times.

2) Keep practicing dictation.

The diversity of IELTS test questions leads candidates to feel unable to control the fill-in-the-blank questions, and time control is a big problem. Therefore, we should improve our dictation ability and stick to the process of listening to sentences paragraph by paragraph. When choosing IELTS exercises as the material, one thing should always be adhered to, that is, practice whatever you take in the exam, which can achieve the fastest effect. Listen to the tape sentence by sentence, then press the pause button to make sure that the sentence is completely recorded, and then practice the next sentence.

3). Idioms and oral sentence structures

At ordinary times, we should prepare some common sentence patterns of listening dialogue, and combine the preparation of grammar part during the exam to form a certain conditioned reflex, which is helpful to improve the sensitivity to language.

4). Other preventive measures

(1) Complete all questions.

Be sure to complete each blank and fill in the blanks. If some words are really incomprehensible, then we will complete them according to the sounds we hear and certain spelling rules.

(2) See the requirements of the topic clearly

It's a pity that you wrote "Yes/No" or "True/False" and finally lost points in vain.

(3) Check carefully

"Focus on the overall situation and start small" is indeed a wise saying. In the process of copying answers in the last ten minutes, you must carefully read the case of letters (all names, place names, system names, trade names, and some proper nouns expressed in capitals in the original text, etc. ), grammatical expression (gerund form, infinitive, tense expression, part of speech conversion, active voice and passive voice, etc. )

(4) Know how to choose

If you can't answer the question, break the question and give up at once. IELTS can't be wrong unless you get full marks.

(5) Pay attention to the words that are repeatedly emphasized at ordinary times.

(6) Pay attention to the sudden change of sign words and tone.

3. Ways to improve IELTS speaking:

1. Practice pronunciation

Determine your pronunciation-> do intensive listening+reading exercises-> check your accent (recording comparison).

Mode: reading vocabulary books-> reading listening materials.

2. Exercise retelling ability

In the process of IELTS test, candidates need to answer many questions within the specified time, so they need to prepare corresponding common questions. You can recite some composition books, but it should be noted that the sentence patterns in the writing mode need to be adjusted to some extent and less complicated sentences are needed. Language communication needs the ability to communicate, not the complexity of the language itself. The common topics to be recommended before the exam are: culture, climate, sports, music, movies, environment, transportation, tourism and people.

Exercise, blurt out

Do a model test with the questions in the IELTS speaking textbook. The goal is to reflect the outline of your own language expression within five seconds after seeing the topic. If you lack it, you must exercise. According to the topic, prepare language jokes in three steps:

A. Prepare 4 sentences for each topic. When you see the topic, switch the topic and recite it.

B. Describe the new topic with sentence patterns of other topics

C. try to describe any topic in your own language.

Four: IELTS writing

Introduction to IELTS writing: The test questions of general training and academic writing are different, and the time is 1 hour. Candidates are required to complete two articles, the first requires 150 words, and the second requires 250 words.

The first rule of general training requires candidates to write a letter according to the topic setting. The contents of the letter are mostly related to daily life, such as complaining, applying for a job and asking about the situation. The second article requires candidates to write an academic argumentative paper on a certain topic.

The first academic question requires candidates to describe a chart provided on the test paper. Candidates must accurately describe the information and trends expressed in the chart within 20 minutes. The second question in general training class and academic class has the same style, and both require candidates to write an argumentative essay on a certain point of view or phenomenon.

IELTS writing preparation experience:

1. Have a good grammar foundation and practice writing complex sentences (complex sentences, especially those with non-restrictive attributive clauses).

Spend half an hour preparing famous sayings and proverbs every day.

3. Dialectically analyze the model essay and choose some useful sentences.

4. When preparing, the composition is divided into major contents and classified preparation (science and technology, people, society and education).

5. Write an article formally (based on the first four preparation methods)
