如何利用寒假準備標準化考試？

今天我們來聊聊標準化考試以及如何利用寒假的時間來準備！標準化考試或標準化測驗 (Standardized Tests) 包括:?SAT、ACT、托福 (TOEFL)、雅思 (IELTS)、AP考試等。

Standardized tests include but are not confined to:?SAT, ACT, TOEFL, IELTS, AP Tests, etc.

01識別自己的弱點

Identify Your WeaknessesPay attention to what you have been struggling with in your studies.

Whether it is vocabulary or speed reading, chances are if you currently find something difficult,?it will remain a problem when you take the standardized test if you do nothing about it.

Therefore to score high, you will first need to?identify your weaknesses, so you will have?something to target later on?in your preparation process.

在日常學習中關心一下自己平時的薄弱點。無論你是詞匯量不足還是閱讀速度不夠快，要是你已經遇到這種困難并且不采取任何措施來解決它，那在將來的標準化考試上你還是會遇到同樣的困難。

所以如果想要取得優(yōu)異的成績，首先需要識別自己本身就有的弱點

才能針對性地解決。

02設一個目標

Set a GoalAfter identifying your weaknesses, you should already have a vague idea of what you are/are not capable of.

Keep your capabilities in mind while you set a goal for yourself. Your bar should be?feasible but not too low and high enough but not unrealistic.

Keeping a specific goal in mind will make the preparation process more?efficient and effective.

當你已經認識了自己的薄弱點后，你應該對自己的能力已經有了一個大概的理解。有了這個自知自明后，你可以為自己量身定做一個適合自己的目標 (不要把這個目標設的太高或太低)。

這個目標會讓你更加有動力并提高效果和效率。

03定一個學習計劃

Construct a Study PlanConstruct a study plan?tailored to your goals, weaknesses, and available resources. It should be?rigorous yet achievable.

After planning out your study schedule, be sure to follow it without slack or else it will decieve the entire purpose.

反思一下自己的目標、弱點和已有的資源然后定一個實際的學習計劃。定完學習計劃后一定要好好的按照你規(guī)劃的來做，否則不會達到理想的效果。

04學習考試技巧

Learn Test-Taking TechniquesMost tests require strategic test-taking techniques in order to score high on them. If you are a slow reader, buy a?couple tool books or search online for techniques?to improve your reading speed.

大部分的標準化考試都是需要一定的

考試技巧才能取得優(yōu)異的成績。如果你的閱讀速度不夠快，你可以考慮買幾本書或上網查一些關于如何提高閱讀速度的資料來幫助你提高。

05刷題

Practice, Practice, Practice!As the old adage goes: practice makes perfect. With your newly-acquired test-taking strategies in mind, get used to employing them by completing respective practice questions.

More practice allows you to complete the test with?higher accuracy and less time.

當你學會一些考試技巧后，你可以用刷題的方法練習這些技巧的運用。你題目刷的越是多，你的準確率和速度會跟著一起往上升的趨勢走。

06報名一個補習班

Sign Up for a ClassThough this last option is not required, it is still advised to take a couple of classes for achieving maximum results. If time and money allows, sign up for a course that will provide extended outside help to your preparations.

雖然這不是必須的，但是很多人還是會選擇考慮報名一個補習班。補習班的效果通常會比自己家里準備的效果更加好，所以在時間與金錢的允許下你也可以考慮找一個靠譜的教育機構來幫助你充分地為考試做準備。好了今天小編就講到這里了。

希望同學們可以把以上的幾條建議作為參考。最后祝同學們假期愉快！
