上班族雅思学渣的成功逆袭 总分8分
一、关于备考资料
1、剑桥雅思5-10
剑桥雅思10是今年刚出来,比较"贴合"雅思考试的最新情况,所以建议各位烤鸭直接从剑10开始做起。不过,真题是非常珍贵的,我们做的时候不能求"量",而应该求"质",力求"吃透"每一套题。在做题过程中要了解到雅思考试的节奏,题型特点。
2、【剑桥雅思】官方备考材料系列
市面上关于雅思备考资料琳琅满目,对于很多新手烤鸭来说,不知从何下手。词汇应该看哪一本?做哪些真题?机经有用吗?小站老师认为,在吃不准究竟看哪些资料的时候,不妨先从剑桥官方出版的资料下手。比如2014年出版的《雅思官方指南 OG》,背单词的话可以选择《雅思官方词汇书》,还有《剑桥考试委员会官方雅思高分写作指导》。
3、每天听BBC新闻
从近几年雅思听力的发展趋势来看,听力部分的难度正在增加,场景更为丰富,这就需要我们在备考的时候要对听力部分更为重视。我每天都会听BBC当天新闻,一方面可以锻炼自己的听力,另一方面,还可以学习英国人的叙述方式,这里有全部的BBC新闻,大家在备考之余也可以打开来听听,做个听写:https://www.zhan.com/abroad/index.php?r=viewnews/index&viewnewsid=22856
二、我的单项备考
1、听力:
其实在备考之初,我的英语听力仅仅只停留在英语六级水平,还是勉强的。不过我非常喜欢看BBC,包括它的纪录片。我基本上在备考之余就是靠BBC来磨耳的。在做题方面,就做了三份剑桥雅思真题就不想做了,太累,还是选择听BBC。
2、阅读
阅读一直是我的弱项,因为看长文很累,但为了考试,我还是买了很多英语杂志,包括手机在内的各种界面都换成了英语版,为的就是让自己沉浸在那个气氛中。平时会浏览一写英语网站,我个人很喜欢看一些国外的文献、论文。虽然刚开始读起来词汇量是硬伤,但是这样也是一种快速积累的方式,比单纯的捧着词汇书要简单多了。
在做题的时候,我比较倾向于先看问题,再带着问题阅读全文,这样比较有针对性一点。一般说来,雅思阅读的文章都会有三到四类的问题,每类问题下的小问题的答案在该篇阅读文章中是依序出现的。知道这个后,在确认答案的时候,就会比较快和准确了。
这就是我的经验,不能说完整,但是可以借鉴,语言的学习是没有突击可言的,循序渐进,要保持每天都要接触到。希望这篇文章可以帮助到大家。

1、Do you think it is one of the responsibilities of government to provide sports facilities for the public ? (Why?/Why not?)
In my opinion/the way I see it/ from my point or my point is/as far as I`m concerned/ I tend to think that it is one of the responsibilities of government to provide sports facilities for the public. On the one hand, it is definitely good to improve the public health, such as some retired old people can use those facilities to work out every day . On the other hand, doing outdoor activities is necessary for every one, but nowadays, young people spend too much time on internet, so it is a good way to give up internet addiction.

I'm afraid since I rarely go to swimming pool, I don't know exactly the ticket price, but I do know one thing if you go swimming, it`s really worth the ticket price.

Well, to be honest, I am not sure what can be done to decrease the price of swimming pool tickets, but I guess if we had too many swimming pools, the price would be much cheaper.

Keep fit , keep in shape, strengthen our heart and lungs.
雅思考试口语范文之最爱的运动
What is your favorite sport? ( 5 – 6 )
My favorite sport is basketball. Please allow me to explain. Firstly, it is very healthy for a young person like myself. For example, it will help to develop the muscles in my body. Secondly, it can be played outdoors, which means that I am able to breathe a lot of fresh air while I am playing. Lastly, it is not a contact sport. What I mean is that the chances of getting injured are not great.
What is your favorite sport? ( 7 – 8 )
My favorite sport is table tennis, also known as ping-pong. Please allow me to explain. Firstly, it is very healthy for a young person like myself. For example, it will help to develop my reflexes. Secondly, it is an indoor sport. What I mean to say is that we are able to play it irrespective of the weather conditions. In my hometown, this is important because of the long winters. Thirdly, the equipment needed to play table tennis is inexpensive. For instance, you can use any table of a reasonable size. Al you then need is a ball, two bats, and a net. Lastly, table tennis is a sociable sport. That is to say, two or four people can play at one time, while a number of spectators can enjoy the game as well.
Do men and woman prefer the same sports? ( 5 – 8 )
That’s an interesting question. Allow me to explain my personal views by shortly mentioning the following points: Firstly, there are few sports in which woman do not participate these days. For example, the woman’s football team from China did well in the Woman’s World Cup held in Germany recently.
What sports are played in your country? ( 5 – 8 )
There are many sports played in China. Allow me to mention a few examples. Basketball and football is played mainly by the younger generation. Football is popular amongst Chinese ladies. We have a strong national team who has done well in the recent World Cup. All age groups play table tennis, better known as ping-pong. Because it is an indoor sport, it is particularly popular in winter. Because of their relatively small physique, Chinese people play the so-called small-ball games like badminton well. Swimming, skating, and volleyball are popular as well.
What is the most popular sport in your country? ( 5 – 8 )
That’s a tough question. Allow me to explain my personal views by shortly mentioning the following points: Firstly, I believe football is the most popular sport. For example, all the big stadiums in our country are football stadiums. Secondly, the majority of youngsters are interested in the sport. For example, during the recent World Cup held in Japan and Korea, many in China followed the competition closely.
What is the most popular sport in your country? ( 5 – 8 )
Table tennis is extremely popular in China. That is to say, many people of all ages like to play it. China is often regarded as the world champions. For example, we often win a number of medals in this sport at the Olympic Games.
What are the sporting facilities like in your region? ( 5 – 8 )
That’s a good question. Allow me to explain my personal views by shortly mentioning the following points: Firstly, I suppose the sporting facilities are acceptable. For example, we are able to play any sport that we like. The problem is that the facilities are not available to everyone. At the moment many of the facilities are owned by universities and are available only to the students of that particular university only. Lastly, I believe the fact that the Olympic games are being held in China in 2008 will help to solve the problem to some extent. For example, the government will have to build many new stadiums and facilities in the next six years. Hopefully after the games, these new facilities will become available to the general public.
What other sporting facilities would you like to see in your region? ( 5 – 8 )
Firstly, I would like to see more baseball courts that are open to the general public. For example, at the moment many of the courts are owned by universities and are available only to the students of that particular university. Secondly, I believe more youth centers should be built in our cities. This would help in getting young people to engage in physically healthy activities, and not sit in front of computers and TV’s all day long.
