摘要:1. 場景方面:場景方面依舊是主流場景(諮詢、旅遊、課程討論、講座),在接下來的考試中,考生還應將重點放在S1求職,租房,S2旅遊,活動及公共場所設施介紹,S3課程討論及論文寫作,S4動植物,環境,歷史,學術等各類學術講座,同時下場考試應着重準備地圖題等配對練習。B He found that laboratory experiments on the psychology of persuasion were telling only part of the story, so he began to research influence in the real world, enrolling in sales-training programmes: “I learnt how to sell automobiles from a lot, how to sell insurance from an office, how to sell encyclopedias door to door”. He concluded there were six general “principles of influence” and has since put them to the test under slightly more scientific conditions. Most recently, that has meant messing about with towels. Many hotels leave a little card in each bathroom asking guests to reuse towels and thus conserve water and electricity and reduce pollution. Cialdini and his colleagues wanted to test the relative effectiveness of different words on those cards. Would guests be motivated to co-operate simply because it would help save the planet, or were other factors more compelling。

朗閣講師汪婧點評

Part 1:

新題季第二場,考題已經基本穩定了。這次就借考回的機會來說一說本季度汪老師認爲稍有些難度的題math。本話題的難度主要體現在詞彙上,因爲大多數學生既不知道加減乘除怎麼說,也不知道平面立體幾何如何講,自然答案就容易乾巴巴而無個性了。只有在對於話題中延伸到的細節詞彙有所掌握的基礎上,才能給出熟練而妥當的答案。比如Do you think math is difficult? 這題,我們可以這樣回答:Well both yes and no. I mean, when I was in primary school, we were basically learning things about arithmetics(算術), you know, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and so on(加減乘除). It was a piece of cake for me(小菜一碟). But when I entered the high school and had to handle those geometry problems (幾何問題), oh my god, that’s a real pain in the neck (實在太煩了). I guess I lack the so called spatial thinking (空間思維).

Part2:

大家都知道part2的最佳準備方法是串題,本季度題量較大,一共63題,所以需要大家在準備核心素材這件事情上格外靈活。比如,假設長途旅行之地這個話題講美國,那麼公園就可以說中央公園,歷史建築可以說好萊塢的中國劇院,想了解的歷史時期可以說好萊塢初始時期,特殊場合食物可以說一種美國人新年常喫的食物——豬腸,派對自然就是在美國過新年派對了…… 誠然需要多一些“藝術創造”,但對於備考時間比較的學生來說,講一個細節較全面的核心素材,比準備七八個單一素材要簡單得多啦!

考試建議

口語考試的祕訣之一就是“演技”。很多中國考生在考試時過分緊張,而這樣的情緒也容易影響發揮。放開一些,自然一些,多多在回答時加入恰當的肢體語言、眼神以及上下起伏的語調,不光有助於緩解緊張情緒,還能更好表達自己,提升考官的好印象哦!祝18號考試的烤鴨們順利和雅思分手

朗閣講師李笑笑

本次考試場景爲兩新兩舊,選擇與填空題比例爲20:20,難度適中。

填空題具體答案如下:(僅供參考)

s1: 1.Holbrook; 2. student; 3. 22; 4. 89460733; 5. parking; 6. history; 7. software; 8. biography; 9. horror; 10. teenagers

s2:11.couples; 12. with individual pond; 13. horse ranch; 14. ?; 15. it suits for all ages; 16. Thursdays and Fridays; 17. tourist shops; 18. tour booking office; 19. meet the artists; 20. learn about medicines

s3:21.trade publications-B; 22.Emails-D; 23.General interest magazines-G; 24.Websites-A; 25.Cinemas-F; 26.Trade fairs-G

s4: 31. hunting; 32. steel; 33. hair; 34. fishing; 35. sports; 36. pain; 37. noise; 38. boards; 39. tunnel; 40. energy

點評:本場考試題型仍然比較常規化:單選,配對,多選,填空。整場考試難度適中,場景爲兩舊兩新,沒有出現太難的生詞拼寫,不過細節方面還是需要注意,比如單複數形式,聽力過程中一定要放平心態,集中注意力。其中S3難度偏大,語速偏快,整體反應配對部分偏難。建議學生在接下來的備考中,一定多提高聽力基本功,提高語速,同時注意對配對題的針對性練習。

參考劍橋練習:劍10Test1S4,劍8Test4Section2,劍8Test3S4等

備註:在接下來的備考中,選擇題(尤其是單選和配對)仍然是重中之重,同時加強多留意多選題的練習。考生們可以選取劍橋真題的類似組合着重訓練,記得多總結以及同義替換的積累。在練習聽力的過程中,由於s3的難度有所提升,注意適當提高語速,平時練習時可加至1.25-1.5倍速練習。

1. 場景方面:場景方面依舊是主流場景(諮詢、旅遊、課程討論、講座),在接下來的考試中,考生還應將重點放在S1求職,租房,S2旅遊,活動及公共場所設施介紹,S3課程討論及論文寫作,S4動植物,環境,歷史,學術等各類學術講座,同時下場考試應着重準備地圖題等配對練習。

2. 機經:如需參考機經,以2012-2017年機經爲主。

Task 2 社會類話題

題目翻譯:世界上大多數問題都是由於人口過多造成的。你在多大程度上同意或不同意這個說法?

開頭段:採用同義替換的方式改寫開頭並給出個人觀點

Introduction:

Mankind is now faced with various problems including poverty, pollution, crimes and so on. In my point of view, some, but not most of these problems are relevant to over-population.

人類現在面臨各種問題,包括貧困,污染,犯罪等等。我認爲,有一些,但並非所有的這些問題都與人口過多有關。

Body 1:

In some less developed countries, the growth of food supply is insufficient to feed the rapidly increasing population. If encountered with natural disasters and bad harvest, numerous people will die of famine. In some cases, the large starving population makes the international donation insignificant. Over-population also puts a strain on the environment. Deforestation, over-grazing and over-cultivation are common in some regions of the world, and the purpose is to obtain more resources to meet people’s demand. The large population means huge quantities of materials and fuels consumed and waste products produced correspondingly. There are piles of wastes to be dispose of, both in the city and countryside, causing serious pollution to the environment.

在一些欠發達國家,糧食供應的增長率不足以滿足迅速增長的人口需求。如果遇到自然災害或是收成欠佳,大量的飢餓人口會使國際捐贈顯得微不足道。人口過多同時也給環境帶來壓力。森林砍伐,過度放牧和過度耕種在某些地區也很常見,其目地是獲得更多的資源以滿足人們的需求。人口過多意味着消耗大量的材料和燃料,相應的也會產生廢物。在城市和鄉村都有大量的廢棄物需要處理,這對環境造成了嚴重污染。

Body 2:

However, it is unfair to say that most of problems worldwide are associated with population. In some countries, poverty would have been addressed, if the governance could be improved. Imperfect tax system cannot guarantee the even distribution of wealth, with the gap between the rich and poor gradually widening. Another example is cross-border crimes such as smuggling and drug-trafficking. Driven by perpetrators’ greed and evil thoughts, these criminal conducts have become rampant in some regions, partly for lack of cooperation in combating crimes among different countries. Obviously, we cannot blame over-population for the above-mentioned problems.

然而,說世界上大多數問題與人口有關是不公平的。在一些國家,如果可以積極治理,就會解決貧困問題。不完善的稅收制度不能保證財富的均勻分配,貧富差距逐漸擴大。另一個例子就是走私和販毒等跨境犯罪。在肇事者的貪婪和邪惡思想的驅使下,這些犯罪行爲在某些地區變得猖獗,部分原因是由於不同國家之間打擊犯罪這一方面缺乏合作。顯然,我們不能因爲上述問題來責備人口過多。

Conclusion:

In conclusion, over-population is responsible for a series of problems throughout the world, but there are many other issues that can only be tackled with multiple factors considered.

總之,人口過度是造成世界上一系列問題的願意,但仍有許多其他問題也應道被考慮在內。

1.小作文:重點關注曲線圖和流程圖。

2.大作文:重點關注教育類、社會類及政府職能類話題。

朗閣講師樊天惠點評

1. 本次考試難度較難。

2. 整體分析:涉及心理類(P1)、科技類(P2)與經濟教育類(P3)

3. 主要題型:相比於上場難到上熱搜的閱讀,11號的這場考生普遍表示行大運了。三篇文章都是舊題,總體難度不高。本次考試主要考填空題(18題),配對題(10題),判斷題(8題)和單選題(4題)。

本次考試P2命中了我們上週預測的科技類話題,有關蜘蛛絲的工業品製造技術。同時在上場考試大量出現段落信息匹配後,本場考試LOH和判斷題大量回歸。三篇文章題型不難,定位容易。難點在於心理類話題文章專業術語較多。很多同學在時間緊迫的情況下,很難讀懂並定位,做出相應的題目。

參考原文:

A Cialdini’s towel experiments (more of them later), are part of his research into how we persuade others to say yes. He wants to know why some people have a knack for bending the will of others, is it a telephone cold-caller talking to you about timeshares, or a parent whose children are compliant even without threats of extreme violence. While he’s anxious not to be seen as the man who’s written the bible for snake-oil salesmen, for decades the Arizona State University social psychology professor has been creating systems for the principles and methods of persuasion, and writing bestsellers about them. Some people seem to be born with the skills, Cialdini’s claim is that by applying a little science, even those of us who aren't should be able to get our own way more often. “All my life I’ve been an easy mark for the blandishment of salespeople and fundraisers and I'd always wondered why they could get me to buy things I didn't want and give to causes I hadn't heard of”, says Cialdini, on the phone from London, where he is plugging his latest book.

B He found that laboratory experiments on the psychology of persuasion were telling only part of the story, so he began to research influence in the real world, enrolling in sales-training programmes: “I learnt how to sell automobiles from a lot, how to sell insurance from an office, how to sell encyclopedias door to door”. He concluded there were six general “principles of influence” and has since put them to the test under slightly more scientific conditions. Most recently, that has meant messing about with towels. Many hotels leave a little card in each bathroom asking guests to reuse towels and thus conserve water and electricity and reduce pollution. Cialdini and his colleagues wanted to test the relative effectiveness of different words on those cards. Would guests be motivated to co-operate simply because it would help save the planet, or were other factors more compelling? To test this, the researchers changed the card’s message from an environmental one to the simple (and truthful) statement that the majority of guests at the hotel had reused their towel at least once. Guests given this message were 26%

more likely to reuse their towels than those given the old message.

C So much for towels. Cialdini has also learnt a lot from confectionery. Yes! Cites the work of New Jersey behavioural scientist David Strohmetz, who wanted to see how restaurant patrons would respond to a ridiculously small favour from their food server, in the form of an after-dinner chocolate for each diner. The secret, it seems, is in how you give the chocolate. When the chocolates arrived in a heap with the bill. tips went up a miserly 3% compared to when no chocolate was given. But when the chocolates were dropped individually in front of each diner, tips went up 14%. The scientific breakthrough, though, came when the waitress gave each diner one chocolate, headed away from the table then doubled back to give them one more each, as if such generosity had only just occurred to her. Tips went up 23%. This is “reciprocity” in action: we want to return favours done to us, often without bothering to calculate the relative value of what is being received and given.

D Geeling Ng, operations manager at Aucldand’s Soul Bar, says she’s never heard of Kiwi waiting staff using such a cynical trick, not least because New Zealand tipping culture is so different from that of the US: “If you did that in New Zealand, as diners were leaving they’d say can we have some more?” But she certainly understands the general principle of reciprocity. The way to a diner’s heart is “to give them something they’re not expecting in the way of service”. It might be something as small as leaving a mint on their plate, or it might be remembering that last time they were in they wanted their water with no ice and no lemon. “In America it would translate into an instant tip. In New Zealand it translates into a huge smile and thank you.” And no doubt, return visits.

PRINCIPLES OF PERSUASION

E Reciprocity: People want to give back to those who have given to them. The trick here is to get in first. That’s why charities put a crummy pen inside a mail out, and why smiling women in supermarkets hand out dollops of free food. Scarcity: People want more of things they can have less of. Advertisers ruthlessly exploit scarcity ( “limit four per customer”, “sale must end soon”), and Cialdini suggests parents do too: “Kids want things that are less available, so say ‘this is an unusual opportunity, you can only have this for a certain time’.”

Authority: We trust people who know what they’re talking about. So inform people honestly of your credentials before you set out to influence them. “You’d be surprised how many people fail to do that,” says Cialdini. “They feel it’s impolite to talk about their expertise.” In one study, therapists whose patients wouldn’t do their exercises were advised to display their qualification

certificates Prominently. They did, and experienced an immediate leap in patient compliance. Commitment/consistency: We want to act in a way that is consistent with the commitments we have already made. Exploit this to get a higher sign-up rate when soliciting charitable donations. First ask workmates if they think they will sponsor you on your egg-and-spoon marathon. Latex

return with the sponsorship form to those who said yes and remind them of their earlier commitment.

Liking:We say yes more often to people we like. Obvious enough, but reasons for “liking” can be weird. In one study, people were sent survey forms and asked to return them to a named researcher. When the researcher gave a fake name resembling that of the subject (e. g, Cynthia Johnson is sent a survey by “Cindy Johansen”), surveys were twice as likely to be completed. We favour people who resemble us, even if the resemblance is as minor as the sound of their name. Social proof: “We decide what to do by looking around to see what others just like us are doing. Useful for parents, says Cialdini. “Find groups of children who are behaving in a way that you would like your child to, because the child looks to the side, rather than at you.” More perniciously, social proof is the force underpinning the competitive materialism of “keeping up with the Joneses”.

參考答案待補充

1. 5月的第二場考試難度不大,亂序題型不多,填空判斷佔大頭。下場考試對於填空題和判斷題的考察大概率與本場考試持平。本場考察了LOH題型,LOH在上場考試中未出現。想取得高分的同學必須要需要重點關注段落信息匹配題型,該題型在本場考試中未出現,但是是雅思考試近年來的考察重點,需要提高重視,配合劍橋系列真題多做練習。選擇題在本月的兩場考試中都有出現,在備考的同學也要關注。

2. 下場考試的話題可能有關生物類、科技類,歷史類等。

3. 重點瀏覽13-16年機經。
