第一篇：2016年江苏成人学士学位英语考试心得和技巧
江苏省学位英语考试心得和技巧
***上台以来，各种各样的改革纷沓至来。成人教育专升本科考试也变得越来越规范，越来越严格了，现在想要取得成人本科学士学位必须要通过学位英语考试。以前的学位英语考试比较松，有的地方学校会给予帮助（有题目和答案，带进考场抄抄就行，有的直接交钱有枪手替考的），现在没人敢这么做了。因为以前作弊叫违规，现在叫违法，没人愿意为了这点小钱被逮进去的。所以学位英语的考试难度就加大了，有的年纪大的人根本就不去考试了，放弃学位了。现在，我就以一个过来人的身份给众位希望获得学位证书的朋友讲讲自己学位英语考试的一点心得体会。
江苏省学位英语考试的教材是凤凰出版传媒集团 江苏人民出版社 成人学士学位英语考试指南（封皮是黄色的），江苏省学位英语命题研究中心审定的。2013年之前（包括2013），江苏省学位英语考试的题目有70~80%是书后面练习题的原题。题型包括：
一、听力理解（20分）；
二、阅读理解（30分）；
三、完形填空（10分）；
四、词语用法和语法结构（15分）；
五、英译汉（10分）；
六、写作（15分）。其中词语用法和语法结构性价比较低（题目太多，内容太多，分值不高），听力的性价比最高（几乎全是原题，而且简单），阅读理解以前的性价比也很高（有2~3篇原题），完型以前的性价比也很高（原题），作文以前的性价比也很高（原题，不过背的要多一些），翻译是阅读里的句子（部分原题）。这上面的性价比是没改革之前的，原题很多，考60分并不难。
然而，在2014年开始，江苏省学位英语考试的题目有了一定的变化，考教材的内容似乎只占了45%，听力作文原题，但是阅读理解一篇原题都没有（坑爹啊），据说，阅读考的是2003年的原题。本人是2015年参加的考试，更为坑爹，貌似只有听力是原题，语法结构我没看教材，不知道是不是原题，总之，原题所占的比例越来越低了，2015年估计只有20~30%。想要通过考试没有一定的英语水平是很难的。
现在考试越来越规范了，当然，相比公务员考试还是松很多的。本来考试迟到是不准进考场的，但是我那个考场里有人迟到了，但是监考老师通融了。先说说考试的时候要注意的地方：2015年听力20分全部原题，我根本没听就把答案全写上了，监考老师还过来看我怎么在做其他题目，即便没做过原题，题目也非常的简单（傻瓜式的问答）。然后阅读理解一篇原题也没有，第三篇很难，也长的要死。然后，完型也不是原题，慢慢做吧。语法本人没看，只能一个一个做了。接下来就坑爹了，考卷一共两份，第一份全是客观题，坑爹的是要第一份收上去再发第二份考卷（主观题）。我当时在等发第二份考卷，答题卡没去涂，后来还有几分钟，老师说要收答题卡了，我慌得半死，急急忙忙涂完，都没来得及检查自己有没有涂错，一共80个题，我也记不清自己涂了80个还是75个了，郁闷了好久，万一涂了75个估计下次还得来。最后是翻译和作文，也不是原题。当时心都凉了，准备了那么久，背了那么多题目，结果只考到了20分，运气真差。
本人考试前三个礼拜就开始准备了，每天2小时做题背题，当然周末也会偷偷懒什么的。考试前几乎把题目倒背如流了，心想：小样看你怎么逃出我的手掌心。结果只有20分原题，我其余80%的努力全白费了，郁闷的要死，而且，如果答题卡再涂错，真TM要命啊。
总结，现在的学位英语考试考得原题是越来越少了，想通过背题通过的朋友们还是把这个时间放到如何提升自己的英语水平上来吧。当然，听力的原题一定要背熟。还有考过的题目应该是不会考第二遍的，所以，可以把以前考过的题目去掉，看剩下的。为了以防万一（考原题），我把各部分题目和答案精简了一下，贴出来给大家。阅读理解的序号是不对的，看文章标题吧。词语用法和语法结构性价比太低，就不贴出来了。
先发一下自己的分数
忘了说了，我是有自己的原因才上成人本科的，我本来就是本科生，英语六级的（好几年前考过的），所以即便一个原题都没有我也应该问题不大的。。只是要重新拿起而已。

第二篇：2017年江苏成人学士学位英语考试复习资料
2017年江苏成人学士学位英语考试复习资料总结大全
***上台以来，各种各样的改革纷沓至来。成人教育专升本科考试也变得越来越规范，越来越严格了，现在想要取得成人本科学士学位必须要通过学位英语考试。以前的学位英语考试比较松，有的地方学校会给予帮助（有题目和答案，带进考场抄抄就行，有的直接交钱有枪手替考的），现在没人敢这么做了。因为以前作弊叫违规，现在叫违法，没人愿意为了这点小钱被逮进去的。所以学位英语的考试难度就加大了，有的年纪大的人根本就不去考试了，放弃学位了。现在，我就以一个过来人的身份给众位希望获得学位证书的朋友讲讲自己学位英语考试的一点心得体会。
江苏省学位英语考试的教材是凤凰出版传媒集团 江苏人民出版社 成人学士学位英语考试指南（封皮是黄色的），江苏省学位英语命题研究中心审定的。2013年之前（包括2013），江苏省学位英语考试的题目有70~80%是书后面练习题的原题。题型包括：
一、听力理解（20分）；
二、阅读理解（30分）；
三、完形填空（10分）；
四、词语用法和语法结构（15分）；
五、英译汉（10分）；
六、写作（15分）。其中词语用法和语法结构性价比较低（题目太多，内容太多，分值不高），听力的性价比最高（几乎全是原题，而且简单），阅读理解以前的性价比也很高（有2~3篇原题），完型以前的性价比也很高（原题），作文以前的性价比也很高（原题，不过背的要多一些），翻译是阅读里的句子（部分原题）。这上面的性价比是没改革之前的，原题很多，考60分并不难。
然而，在2014年开始，江苏省学位英语考试的题目有了一定的变化，考教材的内容似乎只占了45%，听力作文原题，但是阅读理解一篇原题都没有（坑爹啊），据说，阅读考的是2003年的原题。本人是2015年参加的考试，更为坑爹，貌似只有听力是原题，语法结构我没看教材，不知道是不是原题，总之，原题所占的比例越来越低了，2015年估计只有20~30%。想要通过考试没有一定的英语水平是很难的。
现在考试越来越规范了，当然，相比公务员考试还是松很多的。本来考试迟到是不准进考场的，但是我那个考场里有人迟到了，但是监考老师通融了。先说说考试的时候要注意的地方：2015年听力20分全部原题，我根本没听就把答案全写上了，监考老师还过来看我怎么在做其他题目，即便没做过原题，题目也非常的简单（傻瓜式的问答）。然后阅读理解一篇原题也没有，第三篇很难，也长的要死。然后，完型也不是原题，慢慢做吧。语法本人没看，只能一个一个做了。接下来就坑爹了，考卷一共两份，第一份全是客观题，坑爹的是要第一份收上去再发第二份考卷（主观题）。我当时在等发第二份考卷，答题卡没去涂，后来还有几分钟，老师说要收答题卡了，我慌得半死，急急忙忙涂完，都没来得及检查自己有没有涂错，一共80个题，我也记不清自己涂了80个还是75个了，郁闷了好久，万一涂了75个估计下次还得来。最后是翻译和作文，也不是原题。当时心都凉了，准备了那么久，背了那么多题目，结果只考到了20分，运气真差。
本人考试前三个礼拜就开始准备了，每天2小时做题背题，当然周末也会偷偷懒什么的。考试前几乎把题目倒背如流了，心想：小样看你怎么逃出我的手掌心。结果只有20分原题，我其余80%的努力全白费了，郁闷的要死，而且，如果答题卡再涂错，真TM要命啊。
总结，现在的学位英语考试考得原题是越来越少了，想通过背题通过的朋友们还是把这个时间放到如何提升自己的英语水平上来吧。当然，听力的原题一定要背熟。还有考过的题目应该是不会考第二遍的，所以，可以把以前考过的题目去掉，看剩下的。为了以防万一（考原题），我把各部分题目和答案精简了一下，贴出来给大家。阅读理解的序号是不对的，看文章标题吧。词语用法和语法结构性价比太低，就不贴出来了。
先发一下自己的分数
忘了说了，我是有自己的原因才上成人本科的，我本来就是本科生，英语六级的（好几年前考过的），所以即便一个原题都没有我也应该问题不大的。。只是要重新拿起而已。

IV.阅读理解(Reading Comprehension)30%
Passage 1
After a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest.Sleep is necessary for good health.During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the day before.The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day.There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before.As you sleep, your muscles(肌肉)relax little by little.Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down.After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other.Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream.Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly(although your eyes are closed).This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very slowly and very deeply.Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy.There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep!

Passage 2
Ask three people to look out the same window at a busy street corner and tell you what they see.Chances are you will receive three different answers.Each person sees the same scene, but each perceives something different about it.Perceiving goes on in our minds.Of the three people who look out the window, one may say that he sees a policeman giving a motorist a ticket.Another may say that he sees a rush hour traffic jam at the intersection.The third may tell you that he sees a woman trying to cross the street with four children in a row.For perception is the mind’s interpretation of what his senses – in this case our eyes – tell us.Many psychologists today are working to try to determine just how a person experiences or perceives the world around him.Using a scientific approach, these psychologists set up experiments in which they can control all of the factors.By measuring and charting the results of many experiments, they are trying to find out what makes different people perceive totally different things about the same scene.71)Seeing and perceiving are _____.A.the same action

Example
Getting to Know the World Outside the Campus
With the development of our society, the campus is no longer an “Ivory Tower”.It is necessary for college students to go outside to get to know the world.They should acquire knowledge not only from books but also from the society.Thus they can adapt to society more quickly after they graduate from school.Science and technology are developing rapidly with each passing day.Most students can keep themselves informed by watching TV, listening to the radio, reading newspapers and using the internet.It’s also good to take a part-time job, such as tutoring, or working in a restaurant.Any of these will enable students to get in touch with society.The summer vacation will soon be here.I’ve already enrolled to be a volunteer to help others.I think I can do a good job.Although I won’t be paid, I can learn a lot about society, which I think is even more important.
