第二篇:TOEFL 教学计划
TOEFL 教学计划
1.在考试之前这一段时间,要扩展词汇量和知识面,电视剧就全部换成美剧、纪录片、科教片等等。关于科学的,旅游的,文学的,医学的,心理学的都要有所了解。你自己需要就读的那个专业就更甭提了。最新的 through the wormhole 就挺不错的,还有与霍金一起探讨宇宙起源等等探索频道的节目。2.要读一些古希腊神话等的书。能找到里面的一些英文名字更好,起码有些常见的古希腊神话里面的英文名字,不要求能听写下来,但是起码要看见了就能知道指的是哪个人物。没事的时候,找一本古希腊神话的书或者上网看或者放到手机里面看。3.常见的英国文学或者美国文学家的名字要知道,他们主要作品的风格要了解。看汉语的就可以了,但是一些比较知名的作家的名字的英文要知道。
4.平时在生活中要多注意想一想汉英两种语言所代表的思维习惯的差异。比如中国人为主的东方人比较注重“关系”但是英语为代表的西方人比较注重的是“事实”。开始的时候不太具备英语的语感,但是时间长了就好了,通过看电视、电影、朗读等具备了基本的语感之后就可以试着多想想这个问题,在实际生活中体验一下。5.TOEFL的官方指南里面一再强调,该考试是 integrate skill 也就是听说读写四种技能完全融合的一种技巧性测试,或者叫能力测试。不是四级那样的,不是六级那样的,甚至跟专业八级的测试都不一样。你不能跟以往一样单凭题海战术来应付。我是说不能单凭,题目还是要做一些,来熟悉熟悉考试的流程。考试的难度比较大,涉及到的学科范围比较广,但是涉及到的生活范围不是很大,就是校园里面的一些基本生活。但是大学生的知识面宽泛,所以语言素材比较专业。
6.大学里面的一些基本角色和设施怎么称呼,大学里面一些学科的名字,要会写会读,听的时候要一听就能听出来。

Reading Comprehension
Time: 55 minutes(including the reading of the directions).Now set your clock for 55 minutes.Question 1-12
Orchids are unique in having the most highly developed of all blossoms, in which the usual male and female reproductive organs are fused in a single structure called the column.The column is designed so that a single pollination will fertilize hundreds of thousands, and in some
cases millions, of seeds, so microscopic and light they are easily carried by the breeze.Surrounding the column are three sepals and three petals, sometimes easily recognizable as such, often distorted into gorgeous, weird, but always functional shapes.The most noticeable of the
petals is called the labellum, or lip.It is often dramatically marked as an unmistakable landing
strip to attract the specific insect the orchid has chosen as its pollinator.To lure their pollinators from afar, orchids use appropriately intriguing shapes, colors, and scents.At least 50 different aromatic compounds have been analyzed in the orchid family, each blended to attract one, or at most a few, species of insects or birds.Some orchids even change their scents to interest different insects at different times.Once the right insect has been attracted, some orchids present all sorts of one-way obstacle
courses to make sure it does not leave until pollen has been accurately placed or removed.By such ingenious adaptations to specific pollinators, orchids have avoided the hazards of rampant
crossbreeding in the wild, assuring the survival of species as discrete identities.At the same time
they have made themselves irresistible to collectors.1.What does the passage mainly discuss?
