Would you like to ask the specific time of TOEFL and IELTS for one year? It's better to be specific, for example, how many times a year, when? thank you

Reinecker, the center's project director in charge of TOEFL test, said, first of all, EPP test is not a new test, it has been used since 1997. Mainly used in Germany, Austria and Sweden. Second, EPP test is not to replace TOEFL. TOEFL is used by 800,000 people all over the world, and it is still the most widely accepted English proficiency test for foreign students. Third, both written TOEFL and computer TOEFL can accurately measure the listening and understanding ability of candidates. The center will soon launch a new TOEFL test, including the oral test.

Reineck said that it is wrong to think that TOEFL students will encounter difficulties in listening and expression in their further study, and EPP can provide opportunities to improve their abilities in this respect. In the past 30 years, TOEFL has enabled thousands of students from 180 countries to enter American universities, and even some American schools use TOEFL to measure students' English level. She said that the center attaches great importance to cooperation with China and hopes to serve more China students in American universities in the future.

China will implement the "New TOEFL" test next year.

Relevant people in the United States also said that candidates can check their scores online within 15 working days.

Starting from 2006, TOEFL will be changed to "New TOEFL". Yesterday, Hauck, director of education examination service evaluation, revealed this information at the press conference.

Hawke said that the new TOEFL test includes four parts: reading, listening, speaking and writing.

Compared with the past, the "New TOEFL" replaces grammar test with oral test, thus better testing the comprehension and communication ability of candidates. In addition, the new TOEFL will also focus on evaluating candidates' ability to use English in the higher education environment, including speaking and discussing, participating in study groups and writing papers.

Hawke pointed out that candidates can check their scores online within 15 working days. The expert group of education examination service will also provide written transcripts for candidates through item-by-item and comprehensive grading. "This will make candidates more aware of their strengths and weaknesses in English learning."

It is reported that the American Education Service Center has set up four preparation services on its website, including TOEFL online practice, Sharp English courseware, TOEFL academic oral test and national online English writing training system. Candidates can learn and practice the simulated test questions of "New TOEFL" through the Internet.

Hauck said that the specific time for the implementation of the "New TOEFL" in China will be finalized in June165438+1October this year.

Share the insights from the hard course and the experience that the examiner has to watch.

Candidates should also look at the experience: although I took the computer test, I think English learning is in the same strain, and the learning experience is not divided into written test and computer test, so I shared my understanding and experience of the three-month hard TOEFL course with my friends who took care of their homes.

First of all, listening is definitely the weakness of China people. It is strongly recommended that listening should be practiced from the beginning when reviewing TOEFL! I have asked many overseas Chinese and college students in Canada how long it will take to make a thorough breakthrough in listening, and the answer is: 8 months to 1 year, and there are still 2 to 3 years, and it is in a pure English environment. I'm sure many people won't believe it, but even if you get full marks in the TOEFL listening test, you're only from elementary school to grade one abroad. My cousin grew up in Canada, only 12 years old. When he heard me listen to the most difficult professional joke of TOEFL, he told me: TOEFL is so retarded. How many people with high TOEFL scores can adapt as soon as they come out? Our current TOEFL listening jokes are the most basic in foreign universities. Even if we overcome it, we still don't know what the teacher is talking about when we go abroad. Moreover, the speaking speed in the TOEFL test is only slow, slower than normal, and the actual class is not so slow. Generally, young teaching assistants speak very fast (except older professors).

Having said so much, I don't want to hit everyone, but I want everyone to pay attention to TOEFL listening! Don't underestimate it! I practice TOEFL listening on the basis of IELTS 6 and CET-4 78. I still need to concentrate on listening for 3-4 hours every day, and it will take two months to break through. The specific methods have been described by predecessors for a long time, but they are all essence, so I won't say much here.

I got an ordinary grammar test, but I made a mistake. Unfortunately, it can't be complete. Grammar is really the strength of China people! I once gave a Canadian who went to college at the age of 20 a full set of TOEFL questions. He is good at listening and reading. After reading it, I feel definitely better than the 6-point composition written by China people! There are three mistakes in grammar ... there is nothing to say about this part of grammar ~ just make a summary! Be sure to sum up! This is very important! The master in front said long ago: Doing one problem is equal to doing ten problems, and you can see the details. The grammar of TOEFL is very repetitive and routine. Just look at the options and you should know what questions it will take and what tricks it will play. ETS's questioner skills are so much, and he takes the test again and again at a test center. Sometimes I laugh when I do the problem and scold ETS Jiang Lang for doing nothing. ...

I also took a general reading test, but I made three mistakes in the simple questions: (Although I had a 40-minute check after the reading test and I passed every question, I thought I would get full marks! The result is still three mistakes. I'd rather spend 50 Canadian dollars more to let me know what's wrong! So I can print my eyes ...) Now the reading trend is getting more and more difficult, so you have to say: sharp, sharp, sharp ... When I first started reviewing, I also read from 95 to 2000, and everything I did before 1998 was almost right ~ I never tried to make more than three mistakes, but 1999. Anyway, it's just a little, don't mix any of your own opinions to understand! Regarding the reading speed, I agree with what my predecessors said: Don't dwell on details, but scan quickly. In fact, it is easier to grasp the main idea of the article by reading quickly! Don't pay attention to the words you can't, save time and understand the main idea is the key! !

Vocabulary I suggest listening to Lao Yu's vocabulary. After listening to it, I felt the effect was very good, and I found Yu humorous and knowledgeable. I always listen to word frequency as a joke to relax myself, which is very interesting.

Speaking of composition, I am 5. Five points, nothing extraordinary. After the exam, I counted my own compositions. I wrote 106 composition in three months, and I have to admire my thick stack. I only got 5 points in my composition when I took the IELTS test, and I have made great progress four months later. With what? Just practice more! You can write according to the template before practicing TOEFL composition, and then refine the template yourself. Finally, you can throw away the template and write freely! It is very similar to the martial arts mentality. I want to remind you that after writing an article, you can refer to other people's good articles. Recite good sentences written by others! I recommend a website here, all of which are excellent compositions written by foreign students, much better than those downloaded from the internet (TOEFL model essay 185).

Finally, I want to say that one of the TOEFL tests depends on your endurance! As long as you stick to it, you will succeed! Many high-scoring winners have actually taken the exam two or three times! Failed, get up! I failed the exam, so I went crazy for two days to review! Since I chose to go abroad, I chose to give up the long road of relaxation and enjoyment. Since you want to get ahead in the future, you have to suffer a lot now! Maybe when everyone has passed the exam, they will suddenly feel that the sky, white clouds and surrounding flowers and plants are so beautiful. ...

I thank my parents and relatives for their material support and my girlfriend for her constant spiritual encouragement in the past three months. Without her, I might have given up long ago. Although we are separated, Qianshan is full of my thoughts and love for you! I wish all the latecomers can successfully conquer TOEFL in four or six years and return home as turtles in triumph!

TOEFL computer test has five characteristics.

[Popularity index: 220]

-

There is a saying among students who are going to take the TOEFL test next year that the TOEFL test will be changed from a paper test to a computer test. Because they are not familiar with the computer test, many candidates hope to finish the TOEFL before the implementation of the computer test. This year, the number of people taking the TOEFL has soared from 60,000 to 70,000 in previous years to nearly 65,438+10,000, and some people even queued up all night to receive the TOEFL registration form. The author learned from the National Examination Center of the Ministry of Education that ETS in the United States has not officially decided on the specific time to implement computer-based examination in Chinese mainland, but this news still has a certain impact on students in China.

Is the computer test really that terrible? How is it different from the traditional paper-and-pencil exam? To this end, the author specially interviewed William, the director of the listening and speaking training department of Beijing New Oriental School and a famous expert in TOEFL listening and film and television listening and speaking teaching. Teacher Qiu first told the author that the computer test is absolutely not difficult, and people's fear of it stems from strangeness.

Five characteristics of TOEFL computer test

1. Database topics are classified according to the content and difficulty (the number of questions is less than the written test), and the level of candidates is used as the basis for setting questions, which truly reflects the actual ability of candidates. The number of questions and topics in each volume are different, but the results can be compared. The first question is moderately difficult. If you do it right, the difficulty of the next question will increase; if you do it wrong, the difficulty of the next question will decrease. But if you do the same number of questions, the more difficult the questions are, the higher the score is (the specific evaluation standard ETS is confidential). Composition is a random choice of topics (like GRE and GMAT), and everyone's topics are different.

2. The topic is matched with pictures and sounds to activate the topic scene and enhance the understanding of candidates.

3. Candidates have a personalized examination environment, each with a cubicle/a computer/a pair of headphones, which is not interfered by external factors.

4. Candidates use the mouse to answer.

There is an hour or so of computer operation instructions before the exam, introducing the use and coping methods. In my opinion, as long as you can use the mouse, you don't need computer expertise at all.

TOEFL score is 300.

Of course, there is an essential difference between computer test and written test. The first is the difference in scores. The perfect score of computer test is no longer 677, but 300. Note: To apply for a graduate school in a foreign university, you need at least 550 points and 2 13 points. (The statistical method is still the sum of the scores of each part, multiplied by 10 and then divided by 3). The conversion method between them is shown in the right figure. Secondly, the number of questions, the time of answering questions and the score of each part have also changed. The details are as follows:

Background-

1963, the first TOEFL paper appeared in the United States. TOEFL was introduced to China on 198 1. Before 8 1, the highest score of TOEFL in the world was only 562, but after coming to China, there were countless full marks and high scores. 1July, 1998, ETS first implemented the computer test in the United States, and in 20001October, ETS announced that it would be fully implemented in the Asia-Pacific region. At present, it is the general trend to implement TOEFL computer test in China.

Unveil new problems.

Listen-

Be sure to adjust the volume before the exam; Don't let go of the information in the picture; Listening problems displayed on the reading screen were previously invisible; Answer as soon as possible, there is no longer the original 12 second interval between listening questions, but the total time is certain; Be familiar with new problems.

Chart Problem-Options can be pictures or charts. After determining the answer, click the picture directly with the mouse, and the box outside the picture indicates that the answer is selected.

Sorting questions-Some computer TOEFL questions will ask you to sort the events, that is, put four things in order.

Classification questions-test the ability to classify and judge information, and then link and match related questions and answers.

Grammar-

Fill in the blanks and correct mistakes randomly, instead of filling in the blanks first and then correcting past mistakes. Grammatical problems remain unchanged.

Reading-

Point out the position problem-this kind of question puts forward a certain thing, a certain thing and a certain phenomenon in the article and asks you to find out its position in the article. When answering a question, directly click on the paragraph in the article with the mouse, and it will be highlighted.

Interrupting a sentence-this kind of question gives a sentence, and you should insert that sentence in the most reasonable position according to logic. At this time, there are four places for you to choose to insert, marked with small black squares, and click the most appropriate small squares with the mouse, and that sentence is added.

Referential questions-these questions look for the owner of pronouns and click on nouns directly in the text.

Explain the meaning-this kind of question tests your ability to analyze sentences. You must know the true meaning of this sentence before you can answer this question. Click on the oval space directly when answering the question, and the black space indicates the choice of the answer.

Synonyms-These questions point out a word and ask you to find its synonyms in the text. Just click the words in the text on the left when you answer.

characters

ETS determines 300 questions in advance and randomly selects one question during the exam. There are 300 questions in www.toefl.org, which can be entered by hand or keyboard. When writing, pay attention to the use of language with solid structure, concise beginning, reasonable content and calm ending, and be sure to put an end to grammatical errors, because the total score of the composition is counted as the total score.

Listening grammar focuses on no regrets. Knowing the answers to listening and grammar on the spot is different from the written test. You can change the answer many times in the pen test, but you can't change the answer after pressing next in the computer test. Reading is still the same as before. The whole process of the exam is recorded. Set your exam date one month before the exam. The examination fee is about $65,438+065,438+00. It takes half an hour to register for the exam, and the whole exam process takes 4 to 4.5 hours. You can take a break of 65,438+00 minutes between grammar and reading. After the implementation of computer examination, it can be taken once a month, and the validity period is still 2 years. However, unlike the written test, all the results will be sent to the school you applied for within two years. You can know the exam results on the spot without waiting for seven long weeks.
