Tips for getting high marks in 2018 college entrance examination
Sihaiwang: 2018 college entrance examination is coming. Are you ready? The results of the college entrance examination mainly depend on the usual results and on-the-spot performance. In addition, mastering some answering skills is also a magic weapon to improve the results. What are the answering skills of 2018 college entrance examination English? Let's have a look.
Listening part
In the examination room, it's normal to feel a little nervous, but if you're too nervous, you won't get enough. At this time, you should relax. Once you start playing the test part, don't try to fully understand it, as long as you can quickly adapt to the speaker's voice, tone, quality and speed. In order to ensure that once the test starts, it can enter the state quickly and naturally.
1. Listening test should be predictive:
We should first look at the questions, listen to them with questions, make bold guesses and make simple marks. The effect is better. When listening, take notes and write down the numbers, names and place names. There is also a psychological stability, not afraid of interference, to learn to 'give up', that is, one question did not hear clearly immediately forget, put into the next question.
When doing listening questions, the examinee must eliminate psychological interference, see clearly the contents of the listening questions printed on the test paper, see clearly the problems and the options provided, read carefully, and if it is a monologue, be sure to hear clearly the first sentence and the last sentence.
2. To grasp key words and elements:
Before you answer the questions, you must have enough time to read them. Don't do other questions before listening test! Reading well is half of the success of listening test.
In the process of listening, we should grasp the key words related to the problem, such as but, howerver, so, nevertheless, pay special attention to the situation, the role of the speaker and the simple quantitative relationship, and the rest are mainly the details.
When answering questions, a considerable part of the questions are related to the conversion of synonyms or antonyms. For example, in the recording, it is deal, and in the selection, it may be expense or not heap.
In addition, many materials involve numbers, such as age, date, price, quantity, etc., sometimes in the form of cardinal number, ordinal number, score, decimal number, percentage, etc., and some listening questions also have simple calculation, so candidates are required to be familiar with various digital forms and make clear the relationship between them.
3. Consider the use of time:
After entering the exam, it can be said that the first five minutes are the most important. According to the experience over the years, candidates lose the most points in the first five listening questions. The real reason is that these questions are only read once, the examinee is uncertain, the first question can't be heard clearly, he hesitates a little, and the second question is over again.
Therefore, the best way is to listen to one question and do it one by one, not entangle in the place where you can't hear clearly; don't ask for all, but only take what you can. In this way, we can score as many points as possible.
Remember to take the principle of giving up in time for the questions that are not heard clearly (especially the first part), listen to the later content, and focus on capturing the later information - "give up the former to protect the latter, and give up the small to protect the large". The overall solution can be based on the principle of "fast reading - Prediction - listening - memorizing - selecting carefully".
Single choice questions
In recent years, the college entrance examination single choice questions are close to the reality of life, pay attention to cultural differences, examine basic knowledge, and highlight context connotation; the options have certain interference, highlight the situational and communicative nature of the question stem, and attach importance to the whole sentence understanding; eliminate the examination of simple grammar knowledge points, and highlight the examination of word meaning discrimination; involve a wide range of knowledge, and focus on verb examination.
In order to increase the difficulty and flexibility of the test questions, the propositioner complicates the sentence structure by means of parenthesis, inversion, emphasis structure, clause set clause and so on. Therefore, candidates should be able to accurately analyze sentence structure, grasp sentence context, pay attention to context analysis and overcome thinking set.
Remember that the language is alive and the grammar is dead; in case of interrogative sentences, emphatic sentences, attributive clauses, parentheses, etc., simplify and restore the questions; in case of uncertainty, use the "exclusion method" and "reverse method", especially when there are too many new words or the grammar is not clear, pay attention to the "first impression" and do not change it easily.
1. When solving problems, we should first grasp the context information:
In general, the key information of solving the problem is not clearly marked in the stem of single choice questions, but rather cleverly hidden in the sentence. If you don't pay attention to it, you will make a wrong choice. Candidates should be able to find the starting point of context, carefully analyze the context provided by the stem, and then determine the correct answer. For some problems, if you can find the key information in the stem, the problem can be solved.
2. Sentences can be reduced or simplified to solve problems:
In a more complex sentence, by removing the parenthesis or additional secondary information, the sentence structure can be simplified, and then the correct answer can be found quickly. The test points of some single choice questions in the college entrance examination are very simple, but in order to increase the difficulty of the test questions, the propositioner intends to change the questions into a rare or unfamiliar structure.
For this kind of multiple choice questions, examinees can do the opposite, reducing the question stem to a structure they are familiar with. In this way, the questions will become simple and the answers will be clear at a glance.
Specifically, the following methods can be used:
① The inversion sentence, question sentence and exclamation sentence can be changed into the normal word order of statement;
② Change passive sentence to active sentence;
③ The emphasis sentence pattern is reduced to simple sentence pattern;
④ Change the omitted sentence into a complete one;
⑤ Reduce complexity to simplicity: boldly and reasonably remove some invalid additional information intentionally set by the propositioner, and delete the interfering attributive clauses, non predicate verbs, prepositional phrases or parentheses, so that the correct answers can be more easily selected.
In addition, we must overcome the stereotype of thinking. Using the influence of thinking set is the most easy topic for us to fall in the trap.
Because we memorize a lot of grammar rules, vocabulary, fixed collocation of words and sentence structure, etc., we only pay attention to these familiar grammar rules, structures and local fixed collocation when we do questions, and often make choices when we don't fully understand the meaning of the whole question, and the results are wrong.
Examinees can use the reverse thinking method to solve problems, which is a creative thinking method, which breaks through the inherent thinking pattern. Using it to solve problems can get unexpected results.
We should also be familiar with English culture and overcome the interference of our mother tongue. For example, 'if you are convenient' English is not if you are convenient, but if it is convenient for you and so on.
Situational communication questions are tested almost every year to check the appropriateness of language use (pragmatic competence) of candidates in the specific environment of communication. Therefore, the examinee must understand the connotation of the test questions, accurately grasp the context, be familiar with the differences between Chinese and English cultures, and master the communication habits of different nationalities, so as to choose the correct answers.
3. Also pay attention to punctuation and conjunctions:
Although punctuation is small, it can provide a lot of information. For example, a comma in a sentence can prompt an unrestricted attributive clause or a non predicate verb as an adverbial. Punctuation can help examinees to decide which angle to start with when filling in the blank.
With the help of punctuation or conjunction, analyze sentence structure correctly. They often decide whether the second half of a sentence is a complete sentence, so as to determine whether the answer is a conjunction or a pronoun, a predicate verb or a non predicate verb
Cloze Test
Cloze test is to test the examinee's ability and sense of language.
Specifically, it is a comprehensive test of the candidates' reading comprehension ability, vocabulary mastery and familiarity with English idioms, as well as the flexible use of grammar rules.
The cloze test is based on the understanding of the whole text. It requires students to master a considerable number of vocabulary, sentence patterns, phrases, certain reading comprehension ability, word collocation ability and the ability of comprehensive use of language knowledge. It is also a difficult reading test. It is a test of students' Reading Comprehension and comprehensive use of language.
1. Read through the full text and grasp the theme:
Candidates should scan the full text quickly to understand the main idea of the full text. Master the theme of the article, pay attention to the key words in the article, understand what the short article says, the time and place of occurrence, the purpose of the article, the author's point of view and attitude, etc., which can achieve twice the result with half the effort.
The first sentence should be read carefully. It is the cornerstone to understand the general idea of the full text. The first sentence of cloze questions is usually a complete sentence without blanks, and the first sentence is often the topic sentence of the article, or the sentence containing the topic words. Candidates can grasp the central idea of the article according to it, and lay the foundation for the following questions.
2. Sentence by sentence analysis and rough selection of answers:
On the basis of understanding the main idea and context of the passage, we should understand the meaning of empty sentences, analyze its structure, combine the existing grammar knowledge, give attention to both grammar and meaning, make bold guesses and break each other.
Remember: every blank word can be found in its sentence or context. It is a bad habit for examinees to choose according to space while reading without reading the whole text and understanding the general idea. And the wrong answers are often preconceived in the brain, which is hard to find in the reexamination.
Candidates must first concentrate on reading the passage quickly and grasp its general idea, and remember the characters, time or place in the passage, especially the meaning of the first sentence and the last sentence. In this way, you can know when you answer questions. At this time, you can choose the answers roughly while reading. This is to reduce the space as much as possible and help you understand the full text more thoroughly.
3. Make sure that you have a comprehensive understanding and are consistent:
The articles selected for cloze are all texts with logical relations and meanings. The repetition of words, the use of synonyms and antonyms are important lexical links connecting sentences into texts. Therefore, the repetition of words, synonyms before and after, and antonyms correspond with each other will inevitably appear in the writing.
Therefore, when answering questions, candidates should not rush to success but make full use of the context information words to find and consider the answers in continuous reading. Make full use of the context and the sentences before and after the article to find the words or sentences that can prompt the choice. These words can sometimes be synonyms or antonyms.
Sometimes if we understand it from a single sentence, we can fill in all four options, but from the whole text, there is only one answer. Therefore, when doing the topic, we must analyze the sentences before and after the space and the corresponding options of the space.
The answer required by cloze must be consistent with the content of the passage in the sense, and conform to the grammar rules and idioms in the form. The examinee should not ignore this and lose the other. When choosing the answer, they should first judge whether it is consistent with the content of the passage from the meaning, and then judge whether the answer is appropriate from the tense, voice, non predicate verb, subject predicate consistency, fixed collocation and other forms. They should consult before and after, consider coherently, and improve the accuracy of the choice.
When doing cloze, you can use 'detour tactics' to mark the questions before the question number and do the following questions around first. After finishing the easier questions, turn around and think about the problems. At the same time, put the determined answers into the passage to help understand. In this way, maybe the problem is not difficult.
