场景话题:
Pl新西兰旅游/P2水族馆介绍/P3交通类交流/P4新西兰时尚
题型:P1填空题/P2单选题+地图P3多选题+匹配题/P4填空题
张昕蕾老师点评
本次考试难度中等偏难。P1、P4常规主观题考察,整个P2+P3都是客观题。
另外,本场考试,虽然填空词总体的难度不算大,基本没有冷门生词,且在Part1中启用旧题库里的题型,有出现例子,但是多数考生回忆整体语速较快,理解吃力;P1的词汇注重基本功的考察,类似数字和听写拼写,考生备考时应该多少有涉及;P2和P3都是新题,本考季中比较新颖;P4出题点词汇比较中规中矩,但是语法细节照顾得不够好的话肯定会丢分。20道填空题中陷阱出现比较频繁,考生做题时务必留心细节,尽量不要在本可以答对的题型上留下遗憾。
本场考试填空题出现在P1、P4。其中部分答案(仅供参考)如下:
Part1
主题提示:一名男士向女性咨询北新西兰的旅游信息
1.group
2.13
3.November
4.liberty
5.Adventure
6.visa
7.mountain
8.whales
9.airport
10.End
Part4:
31.gold
32.water
33.frozen
34.climate
35.university
36.cave
37.agriculture
38.iron
39.women
40.silk
本场听力考试,难度在本考季中可以算上天花板,填空题和选择题依然是考察的重点。大家在复习时,多注重单词的拼写与单复数问题;选择题多注意一下信号词的听取和分析。
本场考试题型,整体搭配都是常见题型,出现的位置也比较保守。只要把题型练好,熟悉基本逻辑,就能应对考场所有题目。
填空题和选择题的比例为20:20。
填空题方面,此次答案词略难,且易错,绝不能掉以轻心。请大家一定要加强核心词汇的背诵,一定要在认知的基础上加上“能听”、“会拼”。
注意:最终检查时,填空方面要尤其注意单词格式、拼写以及单复数等,不确定的可以自己结合篇章内容、语法逻辑以及发音判断。
S2,S3方面,还是要加强对选择题及地图题的练习,把握定位,强化替换词,明辨陷阱选项。
替换词:本场考试需注意一些常规同义替换和词组搭配。注意配对题带来的审题压力。考生们如果遇到选项较长的选择题,审题时需要对选项进行简化,“去同求异”,抓住选项之间的差别。
参考剑桥练习:剑15Test1Section2;剑12Test2Section2;剑10Test3Section3;剑13Test1Section4。
1.场景方面:场景方面依旧是主流场景(租房咨询、展览、课程讨论、讲座),在接下来的考试中,考生还应将重点放在S1咨询,租房,面试S2旅游,活动及公共场所设施介绍,S3课程讨论及论文写作,S4各类学术讲座。
3.机经:如需参考机经,以2016-2021年机经为主。建议机经复习以熟悉词汇为主,确保曾经考察过的单词自己都能辨音并正确拼写。

Part1:
第一部分整体难度不大,必考题如workorstudy/accommodation/hometown一定要好好准备。在回答时注意先给出直接回应,再加入适当拓展,拓展可以从细节补充或举例的角度入手。整个答案控制在3-5句话即可。
Part2:
第二部分数量较多,对于考生而言,备考压力较大。因此在备考时注意串题:对自己的素材进行整合,合并话题,可以减少准备素材的负担,但同时也要注意话题合并的合理性,切忌生搬硬套,不然可能会被考官判为偏题。
在考前一定要熟悉近期考察的重点话题,准备好相应的素材;除了素材的准备以外,更重要的是“开口”:自己在家练习可以模拟考试的场景进行,计时1分钟写下关键词,然后根据关键词进行拓展。
