第一篇:英语专业八级复习听力的方法
英语专业八级复习听力的方法,思路。
来自网友,可能对准备英语专业八级的听力题的你,对于想提高英语专八听力成绩的你有所帮助。
在09年5月27日这天终于知道了自己专八过了,说实话成绩出来的时候挺诧异的,没想到能考到76分(本人是一个二本类院校,但本校的英语专业实力并不强,从软件到硬件),之前自己估分的时候也就是55-63之间,真没想到能拿到这样的高分。虽然是二战(一战考了54,一个不上不下的分数),专八的重要性不言而喻,它关系到你的就业,关系到你能找到一个什么样的工作,他还可能关系到你的一生。
这话说得虽然有点危言耸听,但大家仔细想想,难道不是么?英语专业的没有过八级,和非英语专业没有过四级有区别吗?一战之所以没有考过,原因之一就是重视度不够,没有充分的给予重视,所以才考了这样一个分数,从一战到二战,我经历的太多太多,之中的艰辛恐怕只有认真准备八级的战友们才能深切体会到,但不管怎么说,我想对无论是一战还是二战通过八级的同学们说,你们都是自己的英雄(买答案的同学就靠边站吧,我的这些经验对你们毫无用处,那些勤勤恳恳苦学四年的同学可能没过,而那些靠投机取巧考试作弊的同学却通过了八级,这对他们来说是不公平的。那种买答案的鸡贼做法,本人极为反感,如有得罪,请见谅,因为这种经验贴,就不是为这种人写的)。
下面是我的一些备考经历,也希望与即将参加2010年的学弟学妹们共勉。下面我将来谈一谈如何备考复习专八(TEM8)。
专八的复习最好能超过60天,我当时就只复习了54天,从09年考研完到3月7号,时间不多,感觉时间还是紧巴巴的,所以大四不考研的同学一定要每天都着手准备,因为专八考得范围比较广,不像四六级。那么考研的同学,对于你们的建议是,即使专业课要花很多时间去准备,那么最好每天也能抽出半小时到一小时来看专八(无论是背专八单词,还是听专八听力),考完研后一定要投入到专八的复习中来,即使你多么不情愿的对待专八,即使你有多么的懈怠,也要进行专八的复习了,否则再晚肯定是过不了。
你不是想得到那个小红本本吗,那就行动起来吧!千万不要因为自己的考研把专八放下,我第一次没有过就是因为考研的问题,当初研究生没考上,专八没过,郁闷到了极点,所以时间的问题大家要合理安排好。直到今年才过了专八,也考上了一所外语类院校的研究生,总算是圆了俩个最大的心愿。
第一部分,英语专业八级的听力复习思路、技巧方法。
首先听力分为三部分,说实话这部分确实挺让人挠头的,一战的时候是从十月份的时候开始准备的,当时一边考研,一边准备八级,所以时间也很紧,只能是每周日花一个上午做听力,这样的备考可想而知,用高翻的话说,tape hours明显不够,就是缺练。准备二战是从09年1月12号开始的(考完研后的第二天),所以在第二年备考的时候每天上午都要做两小时的听力,然后晚上头睡前(12点--12点半)再听半小时的央视九的英语新闻,这样练习很有效。刚开始的时候大家可以先开始分专项练习,这就好比练体操的运动员,要从分解动作练起,准备八级也是如出一辙,分项练习都准备好了,心里也就有底了嘛。
1.专八听力首先是Mini-lecture部分,这是个确实让人挠头的部分,刚开始练习的时候正确率比较低,所以大家一定要耐心,多做练习,反复听,其中做mini的小窍门就是答案大多是名词居多,然后是形容词,最后才是动词。所以大家听的时候一定要对文章中的名词和形容词多留个心眼儿,还有就是一定要把握文章的结构,参考书大家可以选用冲击波专八系列---听力填空攻略 >>点此查看。刚开始用这本书来练习,应为书中的答案讲得比较详细(对了,在最后的一部分我会对我使用的参考书做一一评价,大家敬请关注)。练得多了,自然就有感觉了。还有就是速记符号的使用,这个东西因人而异,所以不必拘泥于一种速记符号,只要自己能明白就好,举例来说,information--info,但是大家千万不要陷入到这样一个误区,就是光想着速记,而忘了你使用这些符号的目的,为的就是得分嘛,所以在听的时候要有个模糊的general idea,通过大约一个月左右的训练,基本上可以达到四五个的正确率了。如果说mini部分的难度值是9的话,那么下面部分的难度值就会直线下降,但是大家依然还是要给与高度重视,因为这是八级考试。
2.英语专业八级第二部分是Conversation。大家在听的时候,一定要提前读题,这不仅包括要读题的题干,还要读题的选项。大家也许会问,在以前的英语考试中,老师只让我们读题干啊,说不用读的选项阿?那么我告诉你,这是八级考试,不是大英四六级,所以每个选项都要看,看的时候要标记每个选项的主题词,当然还包括题干的反正意(即到底这句话是肯定的?还是否定的?),尤其要注意提干中的NOT,EXCEPT,INCORRECT,WHY,HOW等词,这样的词在每年的考试中都几乎出现2-3个,具体可以参看历年试题。
所以做conversation的方法就是,看清题干,看清选项主题词,做出选择!只要大家每天都坚持练习,相信此部分不会丢很多分,这部分是送分题,可能会有一两个拿不准的,无论是听力,还是阅读,历年试题中答案都有模棱俩可的答案和解析,这也是很多人质疑八级考试可信度的原因。说句公道话,就即使是那些上外的老师,也不见得能把八级考的多好。之前看到hjenglish上一个叫周玉亮的老师,说他八级考优秀,09年考完后提供的答案,不是那么的.....所以可能这也是八级考试的难度所在,即使是老师们也不见得能把他考的多好,所以同学们要有信心!稳扎稳打才是王道,基础才是王道!
3.TEM8最后是听力的news部分,方法前边已经说过,按照做conversation的办法来攻克news也一定没问题,关键就是要考前看题,有的同学说没有时间看题,其实大家可以利用mini听完后的时间,想必大家用10钟来答mini的时间是绰绰有余,所以此时最聪明的办法就是看下边的题,news的速度可能有些快,所以看完选项后才能更有目的的听!

第三篇:2013 英语专业八级 作文
Is sound social environment good to the development of people
When it comes to the relationship of environment and people to be good to others, different men often see the same object in different lights.Some people
that our current society provides a “bad environment” for good
people doing good things, and it is surely that a sound social environment is necessary, while others do not think so.Helping others has always been a virtue in traditional Chinese culture, but nowadays many people dare not offer help to those in need, for fear of getting into trouble.The issue has aroused public debate over the climate of morality and credibility, and many people sigh over the moral degeneration.In my opinion, while social environment is necessary for people to be good to others, each individual should try his or her best to do good deeds and be sympathetic with others, instead of waiting for the environment to improve.There is no denying that some tragic events turn out to be traps by people with evil intentions, so people are becoming more risk-conscious and are more wary of traps and deceits.some people even wonder, „Is our society hostile to good people?‟ The question may sound ridiculous but many believe
people apparently think so.They believe that our current society provides a bad environment for good people doing good things, and good people pay a high price for being compassionate.In fact, such kind of things only accounts for a pretty small percentage, but massive media coverage makes the situation seem serious.Actually, most people around me are kind, warm-hearted and helpful, and I am quite delighted in their company.So I believe media should pay more attention to publicizing good people and exemplary deeds to enhance our confidence, rather than exposing disgusting behaviors.At the same time, as John Donne puts it, “No man is an island, entire of itself.Every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.” Since everyone of us is a component of the society, it is each individual‟s conducts that form social morality.Just imagine it is you who need help, what would you feel if everyone watches indifferently or suspiciously? So, put yourself in other‟s position and be sympathetic.If we do nothing but wait for the environment to improve, nothing will happen.Only by removing the fence around our kind consciousness can we reverse the regress of social ethics, and make our world full of warmth and happiness.Therefore, if help is needed, never hesitate to lend a helping hand.It will make you happy and feel better about life.In sum, I contend the idea that while social environment is necessary for people to be good to others, it is each individual‟s responsibility to offer help to those in need, and together we build up a more harmonious society.Is sound social environment good to the development of peopleWith the great influence of globalization and rapid development of technology, our work and life has become more and more convenient.In the past few years, our economy has maintaining a high rapid development and to our astonishment, our GDP ranked second all over the world last year.The whole country in general is enjoying a peace and prosperity.However, to some extent, standards of morality are now dropping fast.One of the famous cases recently is that a girl dropped into the manhole and lost because someone who has stolen the manhole covers, which is definitely a tragic for all of the people in our country.Such cases lead heated discussion of the moral consciousness.Is a sound social environment necessary for people to have moral standards and be good to others? As far as I am concerned, I am strongly in support of this view.For one thing, a sound environment is indeed essential for providing an energetic living condition, as we all know, environment plays a vital role in our self-development as every one is a member of the
society in which one is supposed to take part in various activities frequently and cannot escape the influence of it.To me, a sound environment means fair justice, sincere communication, orderly society and harmonious relationship between man and nature in which people can treat each other heart and soul.For another, under a favorable social environment, we are expected to share a stable job, harmonious family and wonderful working atmosphere, thus we have adequate time and energy to learn and enhance the quality of life.With the wide spread of civilization, one will have the awareness of improving their basic essence and trust and good quality will be greatly advocated among the whole society.In this way, there will be no fighting, no cheating and filled with kindness and love.All in all, a positive environment will enable the majority to be a moral citizen.Everyone is suggested to learn to self-management and cultivate a good sense of morality.Striving for an aim of being a noble person and make a contribution to build a stable and prosperous society.

旅游高峰中国旅游景点是否该高收费
Nowadays, with the quick development of economy, we are embracing a tourism boom in China.More and more people want to spend their holidays in some famous tourism attractions and get themselves relaxed.Under this circumstance, whether the price of admission tickets in scenic spots should be charged high becomes a heated topic.In my opinion, the tickets price should be set at an affordable level for most of Chinese people and should not be too expensive, and the following are my reasons: First of all, all the natural and cultural tourism attractions are heritages which belong to the whole Chinese people, as a result, every citizen should have equal access to these spots.And affordable tickets price is a guarantee for this basic right.If the ticket price is too expensive, it actually means that the citizens who have lower income are deprived of their right to these places of interest.Secondly, tourism can make an important contribution to economic development, since tourism can create employment opportunities and boost the local economy.In this regard, affordable tickets price will help to attract more visitors and better finance the local economy as well as finance the protection of cultural and natural heritage.The last but not least, tourism helps to keep traditions alive and increase visitor appreciation of the natural and cultural heritage, which will give them a sense of national pride.Hence, affordable tickets price will provide this chance for most Chinese people instead of just the rich ones, and this is beneficial to the whole nation.All in all, affordable tickets price in scenic spots is beneficial to both the development of tourism and the development of local and national economy, and it is a wise decision to set the tickets price at an affordable level.

DDT, the most powerful pesticide the world had ever known,exposed nature’s vulnerability.Unlike most pesticides, which effect-__1__ tiveness is limited to destroy one or two types of insects, DDT is __2__ capable of killing hundreds of different kinds at once.Developed in 1939, it first distinguished itself during the World War II, cleaning __3__ South Pacific islands of malaria-caused insects for U.S.troops, while __4__in Europe being used as an effective de-lousing power.Its inventor was awarded by the Nobel Prize.__5__ When DDT became available for civilian use in 1945, there were only a few people who expressed the second thought about this __6__ new miracle compound.One was nature writer Edwin Way Teale,who warned, “A spray as discriminate as DDT can upset the economy __7__ of nature of all insects are good, but if they are killed, things __8__ go out of kilter right away.” Another was Rachel Carson, who wrote to the Reader’s Digest to propose an article about series of __9__ tests on DDT being conducted not far from which she lived in Maryland.__10__
答案:
1.which—whose。whose在这里作关系限定词,与effectiveness构成名次词组在关系分句里作主语。whose的主语可以是人,也可以是物。
2.destroy—destroying。be limited to 词组里的to并不是不定式标记to,而是介词to,要谨访介词to“冒充”不定式to。其他类似的词组还有be opposed to, object to, get used to等等。考试大
3.cleaning—clearing。clean和clear这对形近而且意近的动词容易被混淆,但是clean指“使某地方没有灰尘,使干净”,而clear强调“清理不需要的东西,而且clear 可与of连用,而clean很少。(这两个词的改错之前也有遇到过,大家都要记住啦!)
4.caused—causing。此句中malaria-causing insects 相当于insects that caused malaria,因此是主动关系,所以应选择-ing形式。
5.by-/。the Nobel Prize实际上是award的另一个宾语,还原成主动结构是…awarded the inventor the Nobel Prize.所以这里应删掉by。
6.the-/。短语second thought或second thoughts意为“仔细斟酌,三思”,如:Robert didn’t give a second thought to borrowing $2,000 from him.7.discriminate-indiscriminate。discriminate有“区别”之意,indiscriminate意为“不加以选择,不分青红皂白”。从上下文来看DDT的特点是没有分辨性:它既能杀死有害的昆虫又能杀死有益的昆虫。
8.but-and/so。本句的两个意群的关系是顺接,不是转折,因此应选用顺接的连词,如and和so等。
9.^series-a。series这个名词属于单数复数同形,它经常与a和of构成词组a series of表示“一系列的”。
10.which-where。from这个介词后面应接一个介词表具体方位,因此这里只能用表方位的副词where。
