托?？荚?018備考規(guī)劃 如何應(yīng)對(duì)變化后的加試
請(qǐng)滕達(dá)老師給我們介紹一下2017年托福考試的整體情況。
滕達(dá)：2017年托福考試沒(méi)有太大的變化。托福2006年從紙考到機(jī)考，到現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)是11個(gè)年頭了。托?？荚囅鄬?duì)來(lái)說(shuō)十分成熟，卷子搭配都是閱讀、聽(tīng)力、口語(yǔ)和寫(xiě)作，題型也沒(méi)有太大的改變。有一些同學(xué)可能覺(jué)得話(huà)題跟以前稍微有些不太一樣，變得更靈活。
托?？剂可弦矝](méi)有太大的差別，每年中國(guó)考生大約是40萬(wàn)-45萬(wàn)人次。2017年的最新數(shù)據(jù)還沒(méi)有公布。但是從2016年的數(shù)據(jù)來(lái)看，托福平均分沒(méi)有太大的變化。考試總分是120分，中國(guó)考生平均79分。以往稍微考得差一點(diǎn)的年份會(huì)是76分，好一點(diǎn)是79分。
2017年托福有3場(chǎng)加場(chǎng)。甚至9月的下午場(chǎng)，很多考生考完出來(lái)都已經(jīng)天黑了，而被大家戲稱(chēng)為“夜場(chǎng)”。這些加場(chǎng)考試說(shuō)明托福需求真的是很大，那么考生應(yīng)該選擇什么時(shí)間考托福，如何搶考位呢?
滕達(dá)：托福加場(chǎng)是指這一周本來(lái)沒(méi)有考試，然后突然可以報(bào)名。而原本顯示已經(jīng)報(bào)滿(mǎn)的考試又變成可報(bào)的狀態(tài)，則有可能有人退考了。
早在七八年前，托?？嘉缓懿蝗菀讚?zhuān)蠹乙揽奎S牛搶托?？嘉?。一年差不多是43-44場(chǎng)托?？荚嚕?a href='http://www.rzpgrj.com/zixun/jiaoyu/' target='_blank'>教育部考試中心一下放出20、30場(chǎng)考試，然后再隨著時(shí)間的推進(jìn)慢慢放出其余考位。有時(shí)候會(huì)十天放一些考位，有時(shí)候會(huì)提前十天加場(chǎng)。
后來(lái)，ETS和教育部考試中心發(fā)現(xiàn)考生報(bào)名托福考試特別集中，在北上廣是過(guò)于集中，而在二三線(xiàn)城市往往還有空余考位。另外，有意圖出國(guó)的考生很多都會(huì)集中在下半年考試。
于是，從2016年開(kāi)始，ETS提前到10月、11月放出全部40多場(chǎng)考試的考位。這樣提前把考位都放出來(lái)，加場(chǎng)也相應(yīng)減少了。另外，托?？荚囈膊捎脤?shí)名制，并且賬戶(hù)要先充值，才能看到考位。
而剛剛提到的下午場(chǎng)，是指要等上午的考生考完，大家兩點(diǎn)半進(jìn)場(chǎng)，三點(diǎn)開(kāi)始考試。到下半年考位緊缺的時(shí)候，大家可以選擇下午場(chǎng)，當(dāng)然題跟上午是不可能一樣的。
至于何時(shí)報(bào)名托福，馬上2月過(guò)春節(jié)，場(chǎng)次也少，然后就是3、4月考試。成績(jī)不理想的話(huà)，要再報(bào)5月，最好在6、7月之前報(bào)課集中復(fù)習(xí)，然后考試。這樣在暑假之前就能有成績(jī)準(zhǔn)備申請(qǐng)。因?yàn)?0月有很多進(jìn)行早申的同學(xué)，所以6月開(kāi)始會(huì)出現(xiàn)考位緊缺。
另外提醒大家，不要把考試時(shí)間安排在學(xué)校截止日期之前。一般托?？荚囀斐龀煽?jī)，也就是隔周的周三或者周四。但遇到圣誕節(jié)這樣的節(jié)假日成績(jī)一定會(huì)晚出。而圣誕節(jié)臨近申請(qǐng)截止日期，有可能是你最著急的時(shí)候，如果還沒(méi)有考到想要的成績(jī)，就會(huì)特別著急。所以托?？荚囑s早不趕晚。
至于考場(chǎng)選擇，就近原則，越近越好。離家近的話(huà)，時(shí)間和精力不用花在路上。如果本地沒(méi)有了，可以去外地考，提前入住，以免第二天早上過(guò)于著急。如果大陸地區(qū)沒(méi)有的話(huà)，還可以去香港、澳門(mén)、臺(tái)灣參加考試。不過(guò)這些地區(qū)的考試要去ETS官網(wǎng)報(bào)名。
2017年托福考試新舊題目的比例是怎樣的?難度如何?有沒(méi)有出現(xiàn)新的題型呢?
滕達(dá)：托?？荚囀钦Z(yǔ)言能力測(cè)評(píng)。所謂的托福題目變難了，其實(shí)并沒(méi)有。并且全球考生面對(duì)的托福難度是一致的，采用的題庫(kù)和判分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)也是一樣的。所以中國(guó)考生的79分和中東考生的79分是一樣的。
但是不可否認(rèn)的是，2017年托福題目的確越來(lái)越活，口語(yǔ)不再考那些特別死板的人力、事物，在3選1這種題型上話(huà)題會(huì)更靈活。比如：
“了解意大利文化的最佳方式，是通過(guò)飲食，通過(guò)電影，還是通過(guò)聽(tīng)講座上課?”
“如果政府得到了撥款，你覺(jué)得這錢(qián)應(yīng)該用在太空探索，海洋垃圾處理，還是天氣預(yù)測(cè)上?”
“如果讓你從三個(gè)不同職業(yè)的人中選市長(zhǎng)，你選哪個(gè)人?是教授，醫(yī)生，還是銀行家?”
托福加試一直都有所謂的經(jīng)典加試，大家考前背一背，了解一下就感覺(jué)非常簡(jiǎn)單。但是2017年3月之后進(jìn)行了調(diào)整，這個(gè)情況能不能請(qǐng)您給我們介紹一下。
滕達(dá)：托福加試的英文叫additional test，主要是用來(lái)測(cè)試考試的信度和效度。
ETS官方MOOC是這么介紹的：每一次托?？荚嚩加屑釉?，考生無(wú)法區(qū)分哪道題是加試。加試題目不算進(jìn)分?jǐn)?shù)里。沒(méi)有雙加試(Never both)。
托福閱讀的題目是20分鐘一篇，三篇60分鐘。如果考試時(shí)一看計(jì)時(shí)器顯示80分鐘，就說(shuō)明有一篇是加試。如果閱讀有加試，聽(tīng)力就不會(huì)再出現(xiàn)加試。反之亦然。不過(guò)，托福閱讀的加試以篇為單位，而托福聽(tīng)力的加試是以題目為單位的。
托福加試收集的數(shù)據(jù)要驗(yàn)證這些題是否合理，是否對(duì)所有的種族都是平等的。如果題沒(méi)有問(wèn)題，就會(huì)進(jìn)入題庫(kù)。我們每一次看到的托福題目其實(shí)都經(jīng)過(guò)加試。所以所謂的“新題”其實(shí)也都是舊題。
至于所謂的經(jīng)典加試，是因?yàn)橹袊?guó)考區(qū)的考生太多了，占托?？忌娜种弧？忌鷤兛纪攴窒砘貞浘桶l(fā)現(xiàn)聽(tīng)力大王花、閱讀歐洲浪漫古典主義文學(xué)總會(huì)遇到。這些不變的題目也被稱(chēng)作錨題，作為變量中的定量，主要是ETS用來(lái)驗(yàn)證每套題目的難度是不是一致。
這里提醒大家的是，雖然加試錯(cuò)了不會(huì)扣分，無(wú)論遇到的是經(jīng)典還是非經(jīng)典加試，都要調(diào)整好心態(tài)認(rèn)真對(duì)待。
2017年很多考生還有一個(gè)特別明顯的感覺(jué)，就是托?？荚嚰哟罅朔雷鞅椎牧Χ?，比如人臉識(shí)別、聲音識(shí)別。這方面請(qǐng)您再介紹一些情況。
滕達(dá)：利用包括指紋、聲紋、人臉識(shí)別這些生物信息防作弊是ETS和教育部考試中心都一直在做的事情。運(yùn)用聲紋識(shí)別可以有效防止槍手替考。教育部考試中心和ETS它們都有聲紋庫(kù)，也有槍手庫(kù)。這些防作弊的手段主要是為了保證考試的公平性。
托?？荚嚊](méi)有準(zhǔn)考證。入場(chǎng)的憑證是身份證，永遠(yuǎn)不要忘了身份證。如果你身份證丟了，那就用臨時(shí)身份證。如果在境外參加考試，就用護(hù)照。
如果要申請(qǐng)美國(guó)大學(xué)，托福一般需要考到多少分?
滕達(dá)：如果是美國(guó)綜合排名四十或者五十以上的，那么托福成績(jī)要達(dá)到100分。如果是綜合排名Top30，競(jìng)爭(zhēng)就更激烈，可能需要105分。如果目標(biāo)是常青藤，那有可能更高。而且，本科申請(qǐng)的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)要比研究生的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)更激烈。
所以如果你是高中生，計(jì)劃去美國(guó)讀本科，那托福成績(jī)一定要好。如果是本科生要去讀研究生，也別松懈。
有些學(xué)校在網(wǎng)站上寫(xiě)明了最低分?jǐn)?shù)，首先要做到不低于這個(gè)成績(jī)。另外這個(gè)成績(jī)也只是針對(duì)所有國(guó)際學(xué)生的最低標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，而你如果要跟其他中國(guó)學(xué)生競(jìng)爭(zhēng)的話(huà)，分?jǐn)?shù)就不能僅僅只是“最低標(biāo)準(zhǔn)”了。另外，其他的標(biāo)化考試成績(jī)也要保證沒(méi)有短板。同時(shí)，還要提升自己的軟實(shí)力，文書(shū)的準(zhǔn)備和平時(shí)成績(jī)。所以建議大家提早進(jìn)行準(zhǔn)備。
考生要怎樣規(guī)劃自己的托?？荚嚹?
滕達(dá)：剛才提到過(guò)，中國(guó)學(xué)生的托福平均分是79分。如果是80分的水平，去留學(xué)是不夠的，學(xué)習(xí)生活都會(huì)很痛苦。而中國(guó)學(xué)生的英語(yǔ)巔峰一般是在高考，進(jìn)入國(guó)內(nèi)大學(xué)英語(yǔ)也就放下了。
如果是大二大三開(kāi)始準(zhǔn)備，可以先考一次托福，來(lái)了解自己到底處在什么水平上。一般我們認(rèn)為一考爭(zhēng)取獲得80分，先超過(guò)中國(guó)平均分。二考爭(zhēng)取再進(jìn)步10分，達(dá)到90分。最后三考刷到100分。當(dāng)然這是一個(gè)盲目樂(lè)觀的計(jì)劃。所以建議考生可以提前報(bào)考幾次的考試，做好規(guī)劃。
托福熟詞僻意解析--常見(jiàn)詞
well
【常用釋義】
adj. 健康的，好的
【生僻釋義】
n. 井;v. 涌出
托福例句：The first wells were drilled into the Ogallala during the drought years of the early 1930’s.(TPO 3-3 Depletion of the Ogallala Aquifer)
托福例句：Gas pressure gradually dies out, and oil is pumped from the well.(TPO 4-3 Petroleum Resources)
解析：well在托福中，經(jīng)常會(huì)考察到作名詞“礦井”的意思，如to dig/drill/sink a well 挖井/鉆井/掘井。well表示井的意思一般出現(xiàn)在石油開(kāi)采或者地質(zhì)類(lèi)的文章中。第一個(gè)句子的意思在20世紀(jì)30年代早期的干旱年份中，在Ogallala第一口礦井被挖掘出來(lái)。第二句的意思汽油的壓力逐漸消失，同時(shí)汽油從礦井中涌出。另外，因?yàn)閣ell有井口的含義，井口經(jīng)常會(huì)噴發(fā)東西，于是引申為動(dòng)詞詞組well out 就有涌出的意思，一般是指water 水和 blood 血涌出。well up 有“冒出，迸發(fā)”的意思，tears welled up in my eyes 我熱淚盈眶;when he heard the news, joy welled up within him 他聽(tīng)到這個(gè)消息后內(nèi)心充滿(mǎn)喜悅.
【常用釋義】
n. 興趣;愛(ài)好
【生僻釋義】
n. [=advantage, benefit] 利益;[=Finance] 利息
托福例句：Forty-three windmills powered the drainage pumps so that they were able to lease the reclamation to farmers as early as 1612, with the investors receiving annual leasing payments at an interest rate of 17 percent. (TPO 23-2 Seventeenth-Century Dutch Agriculture)
解析：interest作“利息”的意思時(shí)，常見(jiàn)短語(yǔ)有the monthly rate of interest, 月利率。
interest作“利益”的意思時(shí)，常用短語(yǔ)有to look after/protect/safeguard one’s (own) interests, 保護(hù)自己的利益;to promote/further/advance one’s (own) interests, 促進(jìn)自己的利益。原句翻譯：有四十三座風(fēng)車(chē)為排水泵提供動(dòng)力，因此早在1612年，這些土地就可以租給農(nóng)民耕種，而投資者們每年以17%的利率收取租賃費(fèi)。
draw
【常用釋義】
v. 畫(huà)，描繪
【生僻釋義】
1. v. 得出(結(jié)論);
托福例句：The stencils of hands found in these shelters and caves allow us to draw conclusions about which hand was dominant.(TPO 12-1 Which Hand Did They Use?)
解析：draw這個(gè)單詞有非常多的含義，在托福閱讀中除了會(huì)考察到大家熟悉的“繪畫(huà)”這個(gè)含義，也會(huì)考察draw a conclusion 得出結(jié)論，這樣的含義。句子翻譯為：在這些遮蔽物和洞穴中找到的手的模印能讓我們得出關(guān)于哪個(gè)手是主導(dǎo)手的結(jié)論。
2. v. 拖，拉，拽;
托福例句：Mechanization included the use of horse-drawn harvesters and seed drills, many developed initially in the United States. (TPO 35-2 Population Growth in Nineteenth-Century Europe)
解析：draw在這里表示”拖，拉，拽”，如the train was drawn by a steam engine火車(chē)由蒸汽機(jī)拉動(dòng)。句子中horse-drawn即“由馬拉動(dòng)的“，整句話(huà)翻譯為：機(jī)械化包含由馬拉動(dòng)的收割機(jī)和播種機(jī)，他們大部分最初是在美國(guó)發(fā)展起來(lái)。
3. v. 吸引
托福例句：They were concerned that many would be drawn to these new, refreshing conceptions of teaching only to find that the void between the abstractions and the realities of teacher reflection is too great to bridge. (TPO 9-2 Reflection in Teaching)
解析：draw在這里表示吸引，如to draw sb. to do sth. 吸引某人做某事，draw one’s attention吸引某人的注意力。句子中，be drawn to 表示“被吸引”。另外，句中的only to find表示結(jié)果出人意料(多指不好的)，整句話(huà)翻譯為：他們擔(dān)心很多人可能被這種全新的教育概念中所吸引然而卻發(fā)現(xiàn)教師反思的抽象概念和現(xiàn)實(shí)之間的鴻溝太大而無(wú)法逾越。
pose
【常用釋義】
n. 姿勢(shì)
【生僻釋義】
v. 構(gòu)成，造成
例句：The political institutions of the four countries posed no significant barriers to industrialization or economic growth.(TPO 18-1 Industrialization in the Netherlands and Scandinavia)
解析：pose作動(dòng)詞，在托福閱讀中的釋義為“構(gòu)成，造成”，短語(yǔ)結(jié)構(gòu)為“pose sth on/to sb”，此處的sth，一般是problem, challenge, threat等名詞。句中，posed no significant barriers to industrialization意為“未對(duì)工業(yè)化構(gòu)成嚴(yán)重的障礙”。
