第一篇:PETS题型
PETS分一到五级,针对PETS较常用的二级、三级考试来做分析。第一部分的听力,二级题型注重的是交际功能,因此考生要熟悉口语会话和常用短语。听力前五题是只放一遍的,后面的题目都是放2遍。如果题目没听懂没关系,因为PETS考试的听力题是印在试卷上的,因此可以通过看题目,根据题目的意思来推导。听力中较难的部分是长对话,考生在复习时,之前2-3年的真题一定要多听,熟悉考题难易程度。
第二部分是知识运用,这部分主要是考察语法和词汇的运用。二级语法重点掌握时态、被动语态、交际功能等。三级就直接是完型填空的部分,基本考察一个是搭配问题,一个是选词问题,有的是根据上下语气来选词的,有的是就是词汇辨认的选择。
第三部分阅读,根据以往的经验,二级考试中一般不会出现跨纲词汇,文章内容接近生活化,偶尔会有一些科普类的文章。三级的文章相对就更加重了历史性、科普性和人文介绍的内容。做阅读理解时,可以先把文章通读一遍,然后再看一下要回答的问题,带着问题和备选答案再到文章里面寻找相关的信息,然后做出判断,这样做题目就比较快了。
第四部分是PETS考试里很重要的一点,写作。PETS二级的写作部分分为改错和小作文。做改错题时,先通读一遍文章,了解人物、时间,确定时态。然后在改错的时候,千万不要根据一行内容来判断,而是根据一个完整的句子内容来判断对错。PETS二级的写作偏重书信、应用文,如欢迎词、感谢信、通知(口头或书面)和描绘性文体(如图片作文),因此考生应了解各种应用文体的书写格式。PETS三级写作分为小作文和大作文,小作文主要也是应用文体,大作文的典型题型是图表作文和议论文。写图表作文要掌握图表写作的概况,首先分析图表内容,然后分析透过图表反映出的现象或问题。另外还要掌握描绘各种图表的典型词汇,包括曲线图、柱状图等等。如果考到了议论文,通常就是针对时事或热点话题提出观点。议论文写作时,建议学生为了获得高分或者稳定的分数,写三段论,即第一段,提出观点1,然后分析;第二段提出观点2,再分析;第三段表明自己的态度和想法。如果有可能的话,在最后的时间里同学们可以找一些和热点话题有关的素材、句子背一下,把最后时刻背诵的句子巧妙运用到考试作文写作当中去。

第三篇:PETS简介
PETS 简介
一、什么是PETS
全国英语等级考试(Public English Test System,简称PETS),是教育部考试中心设计并负责的全国性英语水平考试体系。作为中、英两国政府的教育交流合作项目,在设计过程中它得到了英国专家的技术支持。级别划分为PETS-1至5级。考试分笔试和口试两部分,内容包括:听力、语言知识、阅读、写作、口语。笔试和口试均合格者,由教育部考试中心颁发给《全国英语等级考试合格证书》。合格证书既可作为持有者英语能力水平的权威性证明;又可为各地各单位对其所用人才的英语水平提供一个公正、统一的评价尺度。
二、PETS简史
1999年6月,教育部考试中心举行新闻发布会,向社会正式介绍PETS考试体系。同年九月PETS1~4考试在北京、天津、辽宁、浙江、山东、河南、广东等10省市试举行。2000年考试扩大到15省市,考试人数近100000人。1999年9月起有关单位用PETS-5考试正式取代了过去的WSK EPT考试。我国教育考试中心正在用PETS2、PETS4考试的标准改造高考与研究生考试中的英语考试。现正计划用PETS2考试分别取代自考公外的英语1级考试。

第四篇:PETS写作
PETS写作模板——辩论式议论文
PETS考试借鉴了雅思的基本模式,公共英语三级、四级考试中往往会考应用文写作和议论文大作文。应用文写作格式不正确是很多同学失分的最主要原因。应用文写作程式化强,考生可以提前背诵一些应用文写作的基本句型,积累有关句型句式,注意应用文写作中的套话。应用文写作常考信件写作,如辞职信、投诉信、感谢信、表扬信、会议 MEMO等都是考生应重点把握的。以下分别介绍:

overheard a group of American tourists in Tel Aviv the other day.They were looking for a place to exchange their Dollars for Israeli Shekels.The bank was closed for the day and they were looking quite frantic.So I explained to them they could go to a money market to exchange their dollars.I told them it was easy to find a money market.There is practically one on every corner in the city.We got into a lengthy conversation regarding whether to use American dollars or Israeli Shekels.I thought that it was important to shop in Israeli currency.After you go a money market and you have the cash on you it is much more convenient.You can usually get the best price when you pay in cash.I'm not exactly sure of the reason, but it appears as though the prices quoted for most things just are lower if you tell the other person with
which you're negotiating that you want the price in shekels.It is preferable to go to a money market instead of a bank to exchange your foreign currency.The bank will take a substantial commission on the money, and in addition you will pay for the service.Initially the bank rate may be a good one;however, the bank charges can add up.There is no service charge at a money market.A money market doesn't charge any commission.The hours are more convenient than a bank and the lines are much smaller.At a money market you can even exchange all major currencies and travelers checks.Anyone can stand by you when you are right, but a friend will stand by you when you are wrong.A simple friend identifies himself when he calls.A real friend doesn’t have to.A simple friend opens a conversation with a full news bulletin on his life.A real friend says, “what’s new with you?”
A simple friend thinks the problems you whine about are recent.A real friend says, “you’ve been whining about the same thing for years, get off your duff and do something about it.”
A simple friend has never seen you cry.A real friend has shoulders soggy from your tears.A simple friend doesn’t know our parents’ first names.A real friend has their phone numbers in his address book.A simple friend brings a bottle of wine to your party.A real friend comes early to help you cook and stays late to help you clean.A simple friend hates it when you call after he gone to bed.A real friend asks you why you took so long to call.A simple friend seeks to talk with you about your problems.A real friend seeks to help you with your problems.A simple friend wonders about your romantic history.A real friend could blackmail you with it.A simple friend, when visiting, acts like a guest.A real friend opens your refrigerator and helps himself.A simple friend thinks the friendship is over when you have an argument.A real friend knows that it’s not friendship until after you’ve had a fight.A simple friend expects you to always be there for him.A real friend expects to always be there for you!
