Preparation class: classroom lectures and class discussions
備考課堂:老師講解和課上討論
Another difference between the TOEFL IBT and IELTS is the Listening section. The IELTS Listening section has four recorded monologues or conversations. The TOEFL IBT has classroom lectures by teachers and class discussions by students.
新托福和雅思的另一個區別是聽力部分。雅思聽力部分有四個獨白或對話的錄音。新托福有教師課堂上的講解和學生們的討論。
Ms. Kurniasari finds the TOEFL IBT classroom lectures and discussions harder to follow.
Kurniasari女士發現新托福的課堂講座和討論很難跟得上。
"Sometimes they use idioms too, to share their ideas or thoughts and we really have to know the meaning of the idioms. I think the TOEFL IBT is much more difficult than IELTS, especially the class discussion and when the lecturer explains the lesson in a class."
“有時他們也用一些習語,分享他們的看法或思想,我們必須要知道習語的意思。我認為新托福比雅思難多了,尤其是課堂討論和老師講解的時候。”
Her advice is to focus and take notes as much as possible.
她建議要集中注意力,并且要多做筆記。
"We have to really concentrate, focus, of course we can take notes, but somehow it's just too fast, and somehow you cannot really memorize the things that they've said."
“我們必須要集中精力,當然我們也可以記筆記,但是他們說得太快了,你無法真正記住他們都說了什么。”
Prepare well in advance of the test
提前為考試做好準備
Triwik Kurniasari's strategy for success is to study, study and study.
Triwik Kurniasari的成功策略是學習,學習,再學習。
"If you want to take any kind of test, make sure that you have enough time to prepare for it. I usually try to prepare myself at least two months prior to the test just to allow myself to get used to the test and to study for the test."
“如果你想參加任何考試,要確保有充足的備考時間。我通常至少會在考試前兩個月做好準備,以讓自己適應考試。”
Use books rather than free online test materials
利用好書本,而不是看網上免費的材料
She also recommends using books rather than free online test materials. After getting a low score the first time she took the TOEFL IBT, she spent the money on study books for the tests.
她還建議要利用書本,而不要使用網上免費的材料。她第一次的新托福考試得了一個低分,之后就把錢花在了備考書上。
"I decided to study harder and buy some books, even though they're expensive but since I wanted to get good scores... For me, books are much more effective than studying for instance, from samples on the Internet, because with the books I can go back and forth and take some notes."
“我決定再加把勁,買一些書,盡管書很貴,但我想獲得好成績啊……。對我來說,看書比在網上學更有效,因為有了書,我就可以來回翻看,并做一些筆記。”
Listen to native speakers from more than one country
聽來自多個英語國家的人的演講
To practice for the Listening sections of the tests, she says students should listen to native speakers from more than one country.
她說,為了練好聽力,學生應該聽來自多個英語國家的人的演講。
"For listening try to listen to native speakers speaking on the radio, TV, on VOA, of course. I think the hardest part about IELTS is the accent because they use mostly British accent. I need to get used to the British accent. Sometimes they use Australian accent. And I'm not really familiar with the Australian accent."
“當然,要在廣播、電視和VOA上聽以英語為母語的人的講話。我認為雅思考試最難的地方是口音,因為他們大多是英國口音。我要習慣英國口音。有時他們用澳大利亞口音。而我對澳大利亞口音不是很熟悉。”
The last word of advice
最后一條建議
Finally, our student's last word of advice is one that your mother would probably give you – be rested and well fed.
我們的學生的最后一條建議是,你的母親可能會給你——好好休息、好好吃飯。
"During the test you need to focus and concentrate. Before the test, make sure you get a good sleep. Make sure that you have breakfast!"
“考試期間,要集中精力。考試的前一天,一定要睡個好覺。一定要吃早餐哦!”
