On the experience of CET-4

There are three kinds of listening questions in CET-4, namely dialogues (ten dialogues), short essays (three short essays) and compound dictation (the legendary paragraph questions). The first one is compulsory every year, and the latter two alternate year by year, among which the traffic is relatively frequent. Conversations and essays are the easiest to score, just remember a super skill: things mentioned in conversations always develop in a bad way. To give a few examples: for example, it is difficult to ask the content of the professor's lecture in the dialogue, and it must be difficult to remember; There is not much homework assigned by the teacher, but there must be more; Will the woman agree to the man's invitation? Never. It will always be an invitation from a stupid friend. Mary was invited and asked if we were good at swimming, skating, dancing and eating. Mary's answer is always, I really want to go, but I won't. I have been taking CET-4 for more than ten years, and Mary has never taken it, so she won't take it this year. So please remember that as long as it is a dialogue, something unexpected will happen.

For another example, there are two options, train A is on time and train B is late. If you are a topic teacher, how do you set up the dialogue? Of course, it's too late now. What's there to say about punctuality? You can't have two insane people, or two people just fell in love and arrived at the station. The man said, wow, the train is very punctual, and the woman said, Oh, how punctual! So punctuality is impossible, and bad things are usually the final answer! For compound dictation, I was lucky not to take this test last semester, but I think this kind of question is really difficult, so I can only listen with my ears upright. Even if I don't understand, I will guess one from the context. If I leave it blank, I'm sure I won't get any points. If I guess the teacher is wrong, I will give you a point!

I want to add that you should never listen to the real questions of the past few years, whether it is tapes or mp3, which will only make you feel more annoyed. I just saved some Backstreet Boys's "As long as you love me", "I promise you" and Mariah Carey's "Always My Baby in MP3" and so on. When I am sleepy, I will take a nap in the study room and listen to songs to refresh myself!

Second, reading.

This is the focus of our exam. The score of reading questions directly affects whether you can pass. I will talk about every problem here.

Details of the facts. According to my observation, the places that must be tested every year are enumerated places, that is, places with first, sceond and additional, and places with examples and metaphors, that is, places with as, such as examples. There are several rules for taking the exam. Remember: in the 1) option, copying or seemingly copying the original text is generally not the answer, but synonyms replace the correct answer; 2) The meaning expressed in the options is more specific, that is, a longer sentence is generally not an answer but a summary, and the summary is the answer; 3) Whether there are absolute modal particles in the options, such as must, never, only, etc. They are not answers, but those with uncertain modal particles are the correct answers, such as could, possible, etc.

(2) Word meaning and semantic judgment. Nouns and polysemous words often refer to the semantic functions of up-and-down questions. In addition, complex sentences are often used as a means to test their comprehension ability because of the complex relationship between sentences. You just need to remember one rule, that is, the meaning of the option is very shallow and similar to the meaning of the word being tested, which is generally not the answer.

(3) Inference and judgment. There are the following skills, 1) If you want to infer a paragraph, then just look at the paragraph that needs an answer; 2) tentative and not very absolute modal particles such as tend to, offten, etc. Usually the answer; 3) Common sense logic is generally the answer, for example, why China is poor because of its large population, and why Americans are obese because they eat too much KFC and McDonald's.

(4) Main viewpoints and attitudes. Both of them are difficult, and everyone's scores are not very high, so don't mind too much even if you don't do well in the exam. These two questions, even in a very urgent situation, I only read the first and last paragraphs, and then quickly chose them. In fact, the final effect is not bad, and I got more than 200 points in reading!

Third, vocabulary.

For this kind of problem, when you see my experience, go back and throw away those books, such as vocabulary series memory, spark memory, black and white memory, pedigree memory series memory and so on. , or give it away, or keep it well, sell it to new students who are not sensible next year, or take it to cushion the corner of the table. Many ways! I think memorizing words is a very disproportionate practice between input and output, and it is extremely ignorant and superstitious! That's what I did back then. Two days before the exam (don't be too early, or you will forget), I browsed the four phrases at the back of the textbook. When taking an exam, as long as there are words or phrases in the textbook, don't hesitate to choose it! I also want to remind you that you should never waste too much time on 30 vocabulary questions, because each question has only 0 points. 5 points, like reading, 2 points at a time, saving reading time! At that time, I used the even number method plus the probability 1/4, and finally the comprehensive item (including cloze) got more than 100.

These two problems also appear alternately year by year, and the probability of the former is far greater than that of the latter. If you come across a cloze, you should be glad that it is the simplest in the whole CET-4. I didn't even read the questions at that time. I didn't start reading cards blindly until the bell rang at the end of the exam. I sit in the last row. When the female teacher who collected the papers came to me, I still had five questions to write. I told her affectionately: it's hot and you're tired. She smiled and said, thank you, not bad. At this moment, I drew all the questions. Everyone who has participated in the college entrance examination knows that it may take more than two reading questions to do a cloze, but what about the score? I believe everyone knows what they are doing. Fortunately, in the CET-4, the score of this question is only 0.5, even if the real master won't exceed five points on this question, it will take about 30 times as long as you (I only used 18 seconds before and after doing this question). I always think that for cloze, the real intention of the questioner is not to test your knowledge, but to test whether you can arrange your time reasonably!

If you are unfortunate enough to meet short answer questions, to be honest, I don't have a good solution either. Although this kind of problem is rare in a thousand years, I think it is the most advanced and difficult problem in CET-4. The questioner must be from another planet! If you are interested in this kind of problem, you can try it. If you really can't do it, you're in trouble! There is a saying in the university: in life, no one has stepped on a stool several times!

Fourth, writing.

I think this is the easiest problem to deal with, and it is also the most tolerable problem of scores!

It only takes 9 seconds before the exam, that is, it is possible to get a good score of more than 9 points (full score 100). I just recited two difficult classic sentence patterns before the exam. I try to use one at the beginning of the exam and one at the end of the exam, and then I either play freely or write some English lyrics I like (note that they are not Chinese pinyin).

Don't doubt my practice. Now let me analyze the reason why this method is feasible: when marking papers, every teacher will have a large stack of papers on his desk, far exceeding your review materials for the college entrance examination. Do you think, as long as you are an individual, who will have the patience to read so many English articles carefully? In addition, it is generally judged that it happens in summer, the weather is sultry and you are upset. Every day, you are locked in a cabin to read our boring and low-level articles, and you are not allowed to surf the Internet or go to QQ. Therefore, when judging papers, they usually only look at the sentences at the beginning and end, and then generally see whether the number of words is enough. Some teachers in love are in a good mood and will see if they have said anything wrong. In order to prevent this from happening, I remind you that our goal is not to write a shocking article, but to try not to say a typo or write a typo within 30 minutes. In short, our goal is-no tooth decay! ! Furthermore, when writing essays, it is best to use black pens instead of pens of other colors, especially ballpoint pens. In addition, we must pay attention to the neatness of writing. It is said that most marking teachers are nearsighted, sensitive and used to black. The same is true of writing. The neater he is, the clearer he sees and the better his mood, the higher our score will be! It took me eight minutes to finish this problem, but my writing score was 80 (out of 7 10)!
