託業七大題型詳解

[Part 1] Photographs -- Format & Tactics
1.Sentences About Photographs

Format
------

The first part of TOEIC consists of twenty numbered photographs that are in your test book. For each photograph, you will hear on the audio program four sentences that refer to it. You must decide which of the sentences best describes something you can see in each photograph.

The photographs are pictures of ordinary situations. Around two-thirds of the photographs involve a person or people; around one-third involve an object or a scene without people.

The sentences are short and grammatically simple. They generally deal with the most important aspects of the photographs, but some focus on small details or on objects or people in the background.

Each item is introduced by a statement that tells you to look at the next numbered photograph. The pacing for this part is fast: There is only a five-second pause between items, and there is no pause between sentences (A), (B), (C), and (D).

Tactics
-------

1. Always complete each item as quickly as possible so that you can preview the photograph for the next item. Don't wait for the statement that says, "Now look at photograph number __. "

2. If you are previewing a photograph that involves a person or people, look for aspects of the photographs that are often mentioned in the sentences:

* What are the people doing?
* Where are they?
* Who are they? (Is there a uniform or piece of equipment or anything else that indicates their profession or role?)
* What distinguishes them? (Is there a hat, a mustache, a puree, a pair of glasses, a tie, or anything else that differentiates the people?)
* What do the people's expressions tell you? (Do they look happy? Unhappy? Excited? Bored? Upset?)

3. If you are previewing a photograph of an object, focus on these aspects:

* What is it?
* What is it made of?
* What -- if anything -- is it doing?
* Where is it?

4. If you are previewing a photograph of a scene, focus on these aspects:

* Where is it?
* What is in the foreground (the "front" of the picture)?
* What -- if anything -- is happening?
* What is in the background (the "distant" part of the picture)?

5. Don't mark an answer until you have heard all four choices. When you hear a choice that you think is correct, rest your pencil on that oval on your answer sheet. If you change your mind and hear a sentence that you think is better, move your pencil to that choice. Once you have heard all four sentences, mark the oval that your pencil is resting on. (This technique helps you remember which choice you think is best.)

6. Try to eliminate choices with problems in meaning, sound, and sound + meaning.

7. Most correct answers involve verbs in the simple present ("The furniture looks new.") or present progressive tense ("The woman is riding a bicycle."). Be suspicious of answer choices involving any other tenses.

8. Never leave any blanks. Always guess before going on to the next item.

9. As soon as you have finished marking the answer, stop looking at and thinking about that photograph and move on to the next item.

* Testing Points and Skill-Building Exercises
A. Sentences with Meaning Problems
B. Sentences with Sound Problems
C. Sentences with Sound and Meaning Problems

[Part 2] Questions/Responses -- Format & Tactics
2.Questions/Responses

Format
------

This part of TOEIC consists of thirty items. Each item consists of a question on the audio program followed by three possible responses (answers) to the question, also on the audio program. Your job is to decide which of these three best answers the question. Between each item is a five-second pause. Part II problems do not involve any reading skills; therefore, this part is considered a "pure" test of listening skills. Your test book simply tells you to mark an answer for each problem.

Tactics
-------

1. There are no answer choices to consider before or while the item is being read. You should just concentrate on the question and the three responses on the audio program, and pay no attention to the test book.

2. Try to identify the type of question (information question, yes/no question, alternative question, and so on). The correct response, of course, often depends on the type of question being asked.

3. Try to eliminate distractors.

4. Don't mark an answer until you have heard all three responses. When you hear a response that you think is correct, rest your pencil on that oval on the answer sheet. If you change your mind and hear a response that you think is better, move your pencil to that choice. Once you have heard all three responses, mark the oval that your pencil is resting on. (This technique helps you remember which choice you think is best.)

5. If you hear all three responses and none of the three seems correct, take a guess and get ready for the next item.

6. There is very little time (only five seconds) between items in Part II. You need to decide on an answer and fill in the blank quickly to be ready for the next item.

* Testing Points and Skill-Building Exercises
A. Information Questions
B. Yes/No Questions
C. Other Types of Questions
D. Recognizing Sound/Meaning Distractors
E. Recognizing Other Types of Distractors

[Part 3] Short Conversations -- Format & Tactics
3.Short Conversations

Format
------

This part of TOEIC consists of thirty short conversations, either between a man and a woman or between two men. The conversations airs three-part exchanges: The first speaker says something, the second speaker responds, and the first speaker says something else. Two typical patterns airs given below:

Speaker 1: Asks a question. Speaker 1: Makes a statement.
Speaker 2: Responds to the question. Speaker 2: Questions the statement.
Speaker 1: Comments on the response. Speaker 1: Responds to the question.

In your test book, each question is written out, followed by four possible answer choices. Your job is to decide which one of these best answers the question. Then you need to mark the corresponding answer on your answer sheet.

Tactics
-------

1. Between each conversation theirs is an eight-second pause. This may not sound like a long time, but you can actually accomplish quite a bit during this pause. You need to mark the answer for the item that you just heard and then preview the next item. Previewing the item consists of reading the question -- this tells you what to listen for -- and of quickly looking over the four answer choices.

2. While listening to the conversation, keep your eyes on the answer choices. Don't close your eyes or look away. Try to evaluate the four choices as you airs listening.

3. Remember that distractors are sometimes mentioned in the conversations but are not answers to the question. Don't choose an answer just because you hear a word or two from the answer in the conversation.

4. If the correct answer is not obvious, try to eliminate answers that seem to be incorrect. If more than one answer choice is left, take a guess.

5. Mark your answers as quickly as possible so that you can preview the next item.

6. Never leave any answers blank. If you are not sure, always guess.

* Testing Points and Skill-Building Exercises
A. Overview Questions
B. Detail Questions
C, Inference Questions

[Part 4] Short Talks -- Format & Tactics
4.Short Talks

Format
------

In Part IV, you will hear a number of talks on the audio program. There are two, three, and sometimes four questions for each talk. The questions are written in your test booklet. There are four answer choices following each question. You have to choose the best answer to the question based on the information that you hear in the talk. Before each of the talks, there is an introductory statement.

Examples of introductory statements:

Questions 80 and 81 are based on the following announcement:
Questions 93 to 96 refer to the following lecture:

Following each talk, you'll hear instructions to answer particular questions, with eight-second pauses between each of them. (You do not have to wait for these announcements to answer the questions.)

Because this part of the test consists of both spoken material on the tape and written questions and answer choices, it tests both listening and reading skills.

1. The talks: The talks are all monologues -- that is, they are delivered by one speaker. They are fairly short -- most are less than one minute long.

2. The questions: Three main types of questions are asked about the talks: overview questions, detail questions, and inference questions.

* Overview questions require a general understanding of the lecture or of the situation in which it is given. Overview questions ask about the main idea or purpose of the lecture, or about the speaker, the audience, or the location where the talk is given. Some typical overview questions:

Who is speaking?
What is the purpose of the talk?
What kind of people would probably be interested in this talk?
What is happening in this talk?
Where is this announcement being made?

* Detail questions relate to specific points in the talk. They begin with question words: who, what, where, why, when, how, how much, and so on. Some ars negative questions; they ask what was not mentioned in the talk:

Which of the following is NOT true about... ?

* Inference questions require you to make a conclusion based on the information provided in the talk. These questions often contain the word probably or forms of the verbs imply or infer:

What is probably true about... ?
What does the speaker imply about... ?
What can be inferred from this talk?

3. The answer choices: All the answer choices are plausible answers to the questions, in many cases, the distractors are mentioned in the talk. Just because you hear an answer choice mentioned in the talk does not mean it is the correct answer for a particular question.

Tactics
-------

1. Listen carefully to the introductory announcement that is given before each talk. It will tell you what kind of talk you are going to hear (an announcement or a commercial, for example) as well as which questions to look at during that talk.

2. Always look at the questions as the talk is being given on the audio program. Do not look away or close your eyes in order to concentrate on the spoken material. You must focus on both the talk and the written questions.

3. Because the questions ars written out, you can use them to focus your listening for particular information.

4. Do not mark your answer sheet while the talk is going on, even if you know the answer. The act of answering a question may cause you to miss the information you need to answer the question or questions that follow.

5. Do not wait for the speaker on the audio program to instruct you to answer the questions. In fact, you should ignore those announcements. Begin answering as soon as the talk is over, and answer all the questions related to that talk as soon es you can. If you have a few seconds left before the next talk begins, preview the next few questions in your test booklet.

6. Never continue working on the questions about one talk after another talk has begun.

7. If you are not sure of an answer, eliminate unlikely choices and then guess.

8. Always answer each question. Never leave any blanks.

* Testing Points and Skill-Building Exercises
A. Public Announcements
B. News, Weather, and Public Service Bulletins
C. Commercial Messages
D. Business Talks
E. Recorded Messages

[Part 5] Incomplete Sentences -- Format & Tactics
5. Sentence Completion

Format
------

This section consists of forty sentences, each missing one or more words. Below each sentence are four words or phrases. Your job is to decide which of these four choices produces a complete, grammatical, and logical sentence when it is put into the sentence.

Tactics
-------

1. Begin by reading each item carefully. Try to guess what word or words are missing. Look for these words or similar words among the answer choices.

2. The most common testing point in Part V involves word choice. You can identify these items because the four answer choices look alike or have similar meanings. Use the context of the sentence to help you choose the answer, and look for any grammar clues that help you eliminate distractors.

3. The second most common type of item in Part V involves word form. You can recognize these because the answer choices are all forms of the same word. Use the endings of the words to determine which choice is correct in the context of the sentence.

4. Verb problems are the third most common item type in Part V. The answer choices for these items are four forms of the same verb. Look for time words and other clues.

5. If the correct choice is not obvious, eliminate choices that are clearly incorrect and guess. Put a mark by items that you found difficult so that you can come back to them if you have time. Never leave any items unanswered.

6. Never spend too much time on any one item.

7. As soon as you finish Part V, go on to Part VI.

* Testing Points and Skill-Building Exercises
A. Word Choice
B. Word Forms
C. Word Choice/Word Forms
D. Verbs
E. Prepositions
F. Connecting Words
G. Gerunds, Infinitives, and Simple Forms

[Part 6] Error Recognition -- Format & Tactics
6. Error Identification

Format
------

Section VI of TOEIC tests your ability to recognize mistakes in grammar or usage in written sentences. It consists of twenty items. In each item, four expressions -- usually one or two words each -- are underlined. You have to examine all four items and decide which one must be rewritten (it can't simply be omitted) to form a correct sentence. In other works you need to find the underlined expression that contains a mistake.

Tactics
-------

1. Read each item word for word. Don't just look at the underlined portion of the sentences because the error is often incorrect only because of the context of the sentence.

2. Don't read too quickly. If you do, your eyes may skip over errors, especially those involving "small words" (prepositions, pronouns, articles). Try to pronounce each word in your mind as you read. This will help you catch errors that "sound wrong."

3. If you are unable to find an error after the first reading, look at the verbs in the sentence to see if they are used correctly, since verb errors are the most common errors in Part VI. Check the verb's tense, form, and agreement with the subject.

4. If the verb seems to be used correctly, check for other common errors: word choice, word form, preposition use, and so on.

5. If you still cannot find an error, eliminate choices that seem to be correct. If more than one choice remains, make a guess. Put a mark on your answer sheet next to items that you are not sure of so that you can come back to these items if you have time at the end of Section VI. (Be sure to erase all these marks before the end of the test.)

6. Never spend too much time on any one item.

7. Never leave any blank answers. Always guess.

8. As soon as you finish Part VI, go on to Part VII. Keep in mind that Part VII (Reading Comprehension) takes more time to complete than either Part V or Part VI.

*Testing Points and Skill-Building Exercises
A. Verb Errors
B. Word-Choice Errors
C. Word-Form Errors
D, Preposition Errors
E. Errors with Gerunds, Infinitives, and Simple Forms
F. Errors with Pronouns
G. Errors with Singular and Plural Nouns
H. Errors with Comparative and Superlative Forms of Adjectives
I. Errors with Articles
J. Word-Order Errors
K. Errors with Connecting Words
L. Errors with Participial Adjectives

[Part 7] Reading Comprehension -- Format & Tactics
7. Short Readings

Format
------

Part VII is the longest part of TOEIC. It's also the last part, so you may be starting to get tired. However, you need to stay focused on the test for a little longer. (Of course, if you want, you may work on part VII before you work on parts V and VI.)

Part VII consists of short reading passages followed by questions about the passages. There are four possible answer choices for each question. You must pick the best answer choice based on the information in the passage and then mark that answer on your answer sheet.

The Passages

There are from twelve to fifteen passages. Most are quite short. Some consist of only three or four sentences; the longest have around 150 words. The passages deal with a wide variety of topics and involve many different types of written materials.

There are from two to five questions per passage for a total of 40 questions. They include these three main types:

1. Overview questions
2. Detail questions
3. Inference questions

* Overview questions occur after most of the passages. To answer overview questions correctly, you need a "global" (overall) understanding of the passage. The most common overview question asks about the purpose or the main topic of the passage:

What does this article mainly discuss?
What is the purpose of this letter?
Why was this notice written?

Some ask about the best title or heading of a passage:

What is the best heading for this announcement?
Which of the fo/lowing is the best title for the article?

Other overview questions ask about the writer of the passage, the readers of the passage, or the place of publication:

In what business is the writer of the passage?
What is the author's opinion of ____ ?
Who would be most interested in the information in this announcement?
For whom is this advertisement intended?
Where was this article probably published?

* Detail questions, the most common type of Part VII question, ask about specific points in the passage. You will usually have to scan the passage to find and identify the information. Sometimes the answer and the information in the passage do not look the same. For example, a sentence in a passage may read "This process is not as simple as it once was." The correct answer may be "The process is now more complex."

Some detail questions are negative questions. These almost always include the word NOT, which is printed in uppercase (capital) letters:

Based on the information in the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

Negative questions usually take longer to answer than other detail questions.

* A few questions in Part VII are inference questions. The answers to these questions are not directly stated in the passage. Instead, you must draw a conclusion about the information that is given. Some typical inference questions:

Which of these statements is probably true?
Which of the following can be inferred from this notice?

Answer Choices

All are believable answers to the questions. Incorrect choices often contain information that is presented somewhere in the passage but does not correctly answer the question.

A Note About Vocabulary

Most of the vocabulary in the passages consists of relatively common English words and phrases, but there will certainly be expressions that you do not know. However, you can understand most of a reading and answer most of the questions even if you don't know the meaning of all the words. Also, you can guess the meaning of many unfamiliar words in the passages through context. In other words, you can use the familiar words in the sentence in which an unfamiliar word appears to get an idea of what the unfamiliar word means.

Tactics
-------

1. First, look at the passage quickly to get an idea of what it is about.

2. Next, read the questions about the passage. You should not read the answer choices at this time. Try to keep these questions in the back of your mind as you read the passage.

3. Read the passage. Try to read quickly, but read every word; don't just skim the passage. Look for answers to the questions that you read.

4. Answer the questions. For detail and inference questions, you will probably have to refer back to the passage. Use the eraser-end of your pencil as a pointer to focus your attention as you look for the information needed to answer the question.

5. If you are unsure of the answer, eliminate answer choices that are clearly wrong, and then guess.

6. Don't spend too much time on any item. If you find a question or even an entire passage confusing, guess at the answer or answers and come back to these items later if you have time.

7. If you have not answered all the questions and only a few minutes ere left, read the remaining questions without reading the passages, and choose the answers that seem most logical.

获得TOEIC高分的八个锦囊妙计

資料來源: 布鲁斯·罗杰斯:《托业考试综合教程》
Bruce Rogers, Complete Guide to the TOEIC Test
北京:外语教学与研究出版社,2003年2月版。

获得TOEIC高分的八个锦囊妙计

妙计一:提高整体的英语水平

  有两种方法可助你提高托业考试的成绩:
  ●了解托业考试的题型和其他应试者采用的好的应试策略。
  ●具有良好的英语水平(这需要一个长期的积累)。
  本书中提供的这种循序渐进的备考计划,能帮你实现第一种提高成绩的方法。提高英语水平最好的方法其实就是尽可能随时随地地用它。可能的话,去上英语培训班。课堂以外的时间,尽量寻找机会说英语,特别是与英语为母语的人士交谈。阅读英文报纸和杂志,听电台里的英语新闻和英语脱口秀节目,参加英语讲座,看英文原版电影等。

妙计二:了解自身的优势和弱点,在自己欠缺的地方下功夫

  你可能已经很清楚自己的英语在哪方面还需要提高,或者你也可能想通过本书中的“试题预览”来判断一下自己英语方面的薄弱点。那么在开始学习之前做一做这些试题预览吧。你是否觉得有一道或者几道题特别难?如果有,那么就把更多的时间和精力投入到对本书中与之相应的部分的学习中去吧。

妙计三:抓紧时间备考

  参加一个诸如托业这样重要的考试,就如同面对你生命中的一次挑战。你得进行大量的训练准备考试,而且必须是系统的训练。
  在开始复习备考之前,准备一份时间表,计划好每个小时的学习内容。如果你每天或者每周有 3 、 4 天都如此细致地制订复习计划,你的学习效率会比仅有个笼统的计划高得多。按照你制订的这个计划学习一周后,再根据需要把它适当地修改一下,然后就尽量遵照这个计划进行复习,要一直坚持到考试前的几天。到了这个时候,再复习时你的考试成绩也不会有多少影响了,此时你该做的最好就是去放松放松。
  可能的话,专门为备考托业安排一段时间,在这段时间里不做其他的功课,也不要被其他事情占用,只是专心复习备考托业。

  采用“ 30 — 5 — 5 ”法学习:
  ●首先,学习 30 分钟。
  ●休息 5 分钟。离开课桌,做点别的事情。
  ●回来以后,花 5 分钟复习一下刚才那30分钟里学的东西,再预习一下将要学习的东西。

  定期与其他准备参加托业考试的人交流交流也很好。研究表明,这种“学习小组”的学习效果非常好。

妙计四:熟悉托业考试的题型和各部分的考试要求

  如果你的头脑中有一张清晰的托业考试的“地图”,考试那天就不会手忙脚乱了,你就会知道现在做到哪里了,接下来会是什么题。
  通常来说,各部分的考试要求,甚至举的例子都是一样的。如果你很熟悉这些要求,考试时就不必再看了,可以节省很多宝贵的考试时间。由于版权的原因,本书中的题目要求和正式考试中的略有不同,但也都差不多。假如你明白了本书中的要求,你也就能明白实际考试中的考试要求。

妙计五:知道如何在答题纸上涂写答案

  考试时最让人恼火的事情之一,就是突然发现你正在做的试题的题号和答题纸上的题号错位了。你得返回去追根溯源,看你究竟是从哪道题开始写串了行,然后再从那道题开始把后面的答案依次改正过来。为避免此类问题的发生,你可以用考卷作记号。用考卷把答题纸上尚未作答的题目遮住,每做完一题就将试卷向下移动一行。
  多带几支2B铅笔,一块好用的橡皮,还有一个小铅笔刀。别用钢笔或签字笔涂写。涂答案时一定要把整个框涂满,不要随意乱涂。
  一定要把答案涂满,并且每题只涂选一个答案。如果要修改答案,一定要彻底擦干净。

妙计六:管它是什么,猜!

  托业考试答错了不倒扣分,也就是说,如果你不知道该选哪个答案的话,就猜一个写上,千万不要空着不写。记住,即便你是瞎猜的,你猜对的几率也有 1/4 ( 25% )。(而在第二部分试题中,你答对的几率是 1/3 ,即 33.3% 。)
  如果你一点也不知道哪个答案是对的,则按照一般的猜题标准,建议你选择(C),这比漫无目的地瞎猜要好。

妙计七:用排除法筛选出正确答案

  在妙计六中,你知道了在遇到不会做的题时就猜一个答案。然而,不到考试即将结束的最后时刻,最好还是不要盲目地去猜,相反,你还是应该尽量做出一个最佳的选择。这个时候,排除法就派上用场了,换句话说,找不出正确答案的时候,就把那些明显错误的和不太对头的选项排除掉;此时如果有多个选项无法排除,则再从这些剩余的备选答案中猜选一个。
  下面是一道典型的单项选择题:

  题干………………

  [A]备选答案
  [B]备选答案
  [C]备选答案
  [D]备选答案

  4个选项中当然只有 1 个是最佳选择,这个选项就是正确答案,另外 3 个就是错误选项,因为这些错误选项都是误导你的。

  题干………………

  [A]错误选项
  [B]错误选项
  [C]正确答案
  [D]错误选项

  然而,并不是所有的错误选项的错误都那么明显,有一两个选项一眼就能看出是错的,而另外一个就不那么好分辨了,它很接近正确答案。大多数人错就错在这个选项上,它就是主错误选项。

  题干………………

  [A]主错误选项
  [B]错误选项
  [C]正确答案
  [D]错误选项

  即使你只能从 4 个选项中排除掉 1 个,你也将猜对的几率从 1/4 ( 25% )提高到了 1/3 ( 33.3% ),而如果你能排除掉两个的话,你答对的几率就会非常高了——达到 1/2 ( 50% )。
  排除掉一两个选项之后还是无法确定该选哪一个怎么办?这时候,如果你的“预感”(一种本能的感觉)告诉你其中一个选项更好一些,那就选这个好了。如果没有任何预感,那你就选那个“标准选项”;而如果你的“标准选项”已经被排除掉了,那就干脆随便选一个,然后继续做下面的题。
  我们从第五部分题中找一个例子来具体看一下排除法在实际当中的运用:

I'm eager ____ the new member Of the product development team.

[A]meeting
[B]will meet
[C]to meet
[D]met

  你可能首先会排除掉选项 B 和 D ,因为在这两个选项中, meet 作动词,而句中已经有了一个动词 am 。而且,选项D表达的是过去的时态。那么现在要在 A 和 C 中作选择就有点难度了, A 选项 meeting 是动名词, C 选项 to meet 是动词不定式。但即便如此,你仍有可能根据所学过的语法知识作出正确的判断。而且从语感上来讲,其中一个答案放在句中读起来感觉更顺畅。
  如果你选的是 C ,答对了!不过并不是所有的托业考试题都是这个模式,甚至想排除掉一个错误选项都很难。但对于应试者来说,排除法仍不失为一个有效的答题工具。

妙计八:学会控制考试时的情绪

  考试前感到紧张焦虑是很正常的。像托业这样的标准化考试通常都会在一定程度上对你未来的规划产生影响。假如你去参加一个运动会或者作一个重要的商务演讲,你也会感到紧张。英语里有这么一个说法很形象地描述了这种感觉:“ butterflies in your stomach”(紧张得感到恶心)。不过一旦考试开始,这种紧张的感觉也就消失了。有一点紧张对你也是有好处的,它能使你的注意力更加集中。但是过度的紧张就会使你发挥失常,犯低级错误。
  考试之前自我减压的方法之一是提前到考场。如果你是急急忙忙地赶到或者干脆就迟到了,考试时就会非常紧张。
  如果你在做第二节(阅读)时感到很紧张,那就停下来稍微休息一会——“给自己放 15 秒钟假”。靠在椅背上,闭上眼,做几次深呼吸,尽量放松——然后继续答题。(进行听力考试的时候可千万不要使用这个技巧——否则好多题目就会错过听不到了!)
  总之,消除考试焦虑的最佳办法,就是要以一个积极、自信的心态去面对考试。当你熟悉了整个考试,熟练地掌握了考试技巧,完整地做过一套真题之后,你的这种心态就会逐渐地建立起来了。《托业考试综合教程》就是为帮助你实现这些目标而编写的。

[準備策略]
因為 TOEIC 主要考的是商務上面實際會運用到的英文技巧, 所以實際上並不是那麼重視文法以及句子結構的細節, 從他的考試項目可以很清楚的了解, 考試主要分為兩部份, 聽力和閱讀, 都沒有要考生從無生有的去組成句子, 也不會針對文法去設陷阱讓考生來選擇; 因此, 我認為要針對 TOEIC 拿高分, 主要的精力要下在聽力的加強以及單字的熟練.

TOEIC考試第一部分就是聽力, 聽力要跟隨錄音帶播放的步調, 所以, 如果有聽不懂的句子, 不了解的單字, 很容易就慌了, 整個就搞砸了, 所以聽力會是很重要的部份, 這也是為什麼可以看到我推薦的書籍大多都是聽力的.

第二部份是閱讀, TOEIC 的考題不會故意在文法上做文章, 所以閱讀主要的障礙還是在字彙的了解以及閱讀的速度, 所以在商用英文的單字以及商用文書的內容要多加強, 推薦書籍[1]非常有幫助也很類似考題.

TOEIC 考試心得分享

單字
1.toeic 必考單字600字 附兩片cd 笛藤出版

準備的方式:總共有50課 一個禮拜唸五課 休息兩天
切忌五課要分五天唸 一天唸五個小時和五天各唸一個小時是不一樣的
一個月大約可以唸15課..
扣除有可能會有一個禮拜生活有突如其來的事情要處理
另外在網路上找人和你每天討論一課單字 大約三個人
一個人每天準備四個單字的翻譯 這樣會強迫自己一定要study..
找人和自己討論最大的好處 是可以督促自己不要怠惰
另外每課後面的題目一定要練習
五題聽力的部分 我是用 聽到寫出來的方式 確定自己哪些單字不會
也有人建議可以唸出來 我個人覺得不管是唸或寫都是一種檢驗的過程
這本書大概念到30課時,買另外一本模擬試題來練習


模擬試題
2.officail test-preparation guide ets

唸到30課的時候,會有一點信心但卻不能知道自己的程度在哪裡
開始做這本的好處是知道自己的弱點在哪裡,會開始認真的背單字
這本書的前面是告訴你每一個大題的出題方式 和後面兩份模擬試題
兩份模擬試題可以分成兩個禮拜來做
模擬真實考試的情況,連續做兩個小時,不能喝水上廁所..
做完試題後,算完分數後,開始檢討題目
為什麼要一個禮拜做一份呢? 是讓你有充裕的時間可以檢討每一個大題
聽力的部分我個人會在那一個禮拜不停的用電腦播放 完全不聽中文的音樂
只要在電腦面前就是要聽listening part
在聽的過程就可以知道哪些單字是自己不會的
翻開後面的解答 可以將單字背起來
閱讀的部分 我覺得就是要不停的背單字

3.toeic 模擬試題 ets

四份模擬試題,和上面的方法一樣
可以發現上面那一本的題目比較簡單 ,寫這本分數會比較低
但是題目卻跟真實的考試比較接近
4.推薦大家看 taipei time --business 的文章,一天至少一篇
背到30課的時候,就可以開始看這些文章
真實考試時閱讀測驗的文章都還滿長的
如果平常沒有閱讀的習慣的話
看到就先慌張了,更不用說會真的有心思去寫題目...

最後,希望大家想要增進自己的英語能力之前
先調整自己的心態 讓自己愛讀英文 找到成就感
才能驅使你不斷的去學英文....


聽力:

通常題目唸完之後一定要馬上作答,不然就沒有時間了。所以聽力其實滿重要的,因為要聽很久~的英文。
我當時考完出來後只覺得頭暈暈的,因為要很專心聽。
所以除了書之外我的建議是多聽英文,看電影的時候聽他在說啥,就算你看字幕也無所謂,但是你要做到電影在說啥你有聽到,甚至可以邊聽邊對喜歡或是印象深刻的句子唸幾句。
再不然就去買有互動式光碟的雜誌,用電腦學習,光碟裡頭的互動程式會一邊撥字幕一邊唸,就努力聽吧。我發現我的聽力變好是因為有一回買了一本 cnn的互動英文,我只聽一個章節但是因為是新聞所以唸的滿快的,我重覆聽了好久,才聽懂他究竟在唸什麼字,怎樣發音的。同時那陣子超愛看第四台的電影,常久下來不知不覺英聽突然變好一些。

文法跟單字書我就沒辦法了,我自己這一塊也滿弱的,如果你有高中補習的書也可以拿過來,我一直滿後悔送人的,因為補習班的英文講義裡頭滿滿都是我上課抄的精華,雖然我唸的是技職體系的,英文課上的很少,但是英文算是普通,大概跟我有去補習班有關係吧。囧rz

另外我之前有看過有人建議只要買一份模擬試卷(有附cd那種)多聽習慣它的速度,這樣去考試的時候才不會不適應。

推ETS官方版的-official test-preparation guide,你可以從中找方向去準備單字,另外,我也強迫自己每天聽他附的CD,還有BBC或是空英等,聽力的重點是要聽聽的董的英文,最好妳的聽力內容是有script的那種,但請不要先看,聽完在看,我訓練自己的聽力是在聽的過程中,盡量試著把每個音節拉開以辨別每個單字,這樣也可以知道哪些單字合在一起時會形成怎樣的連音,考聽力的技巧是, 最好先在對話之前先把題目看過,這是偷吃步的方法啦,能靠實力去聽董還是最好的啦,,題目要先看,就算看不完也要先看。
通常了解這個技巧的人,題目一聽完馬上就可以勾答案。題目聽完馬上勾答案也是必要的!因為題與題的空檔是用來看下一題的,不是用來選答案的。

看圖的部分,也要先看清楚圖上的人、事、地、物,(沒有"時")
去看圖裡面有什麼人,在幹什麼,地點是哪裡,裡面還有什麼東西(貓不要看成狗)
不要去想時間。看圖的敘述,有出現時間的通常是錯的。
因為圖沒辦法看出是afternoon 還是morning,
即使在公園散步看起來很像是清晨或傍晚,
但是如果敘述出現時間的描述就不要選,
因為那是我們自以為是對的時間。(圖並無法看出是下午還早上)

關於畫答案卡
畫答案卡我都是點一點或劃一撇而已,
到最後再回來盡情的畫卡(不建議每個人都這樣)
閱讀寫到最後真的會有瘋掉的感覺,題目大量,平常一定要常看。
而且要練習看不懂的東西就要跳過,不要在那邊斟酌半天。
看不懂的就盡情猜吧!(當然要合理的猜) 否則寫不完才吃虧。

盡量不要帶太多東西, 因為只能帶手機, 證件, 錢包進去,
放外面又沒有親友幫忙顧的話會很危險.

2B鉛筆, 試場外面都有人在賣, 沒帶的話, 直接去那邊買也行.
我的教室是 CD player 放在前面講桌, 還有附兩個大喇叭,
教室有開冷氣, 怕冷的人要帶外套.

答案卷是圖圓圈的, 有兩面
第一面, 考官會帶大家填資料,
填一些姓名, 生日, 準考證號碼, 試題本號碼, 工作, 學歷, 學習英文的問卷...之類的
最後一項問題是, 要你重複把上面的字抄一次(同意考試規則,本人應考...etc)
然後畫押簽名
下面就是兩百題, 左邊一百是聽力, 右邊一百是閱讀.

試題本是用貼紙貼起來的, 這時候還不能開,
等到時間到, 考官要大家把試題本打開

考前心理建設:
不要花時間猶豫, 馬上隨便選一個, 把握下一題.

聽力測驗 ==================
看圖片: 黑白的圖片, 還蠻遜的, 有時候認不出旁邊的東西, 不過不要太在意
這部份蠻簡單的, 不過要聽完, 因為有陷阱, 我旁邊那個美眉, 聽到
A 就畫了, 結果答案是 C, 就看他在那邊擦, 這樣反而浪費時間
聽寫: 這部份沒有題目答案可看, 只要不恍神, 應該是沒問題的
p.s. 不恍神真的很難, 尤其是一早就要趕車應考 @@"
問題的第一個字很重要, 靠...我就漏掉很多第一個字
when, where, how, what, who
問答: 這部份的技巧就是, 要先看下一題, 因為他給你畫卡的時間不是很夠用
長問答: 這部份是一次要先看兩題或三題, 如果沒看完, 已經開始講了,
你一定要專心聽, 不然就跟我一樣犯錯, 沒聽到, 答案也不知道要選什麼

考完聽力, 不能再翻回去看
聽力測驗主要還是要專心, 沒吃東西就去考試, 應該不太好.

閱讀測驗 =================
單字: 這部份是把一些長相類似, 意思類似, 或是辭性變化放在選項裡,
不會也只能猜, 我很後悔在這上面花了不值得的時間.
選錯: 本來以為這一項是我的罩門, 不過這次真是太簡單了.
不外乎是一些基本的文法
閱讀: 我有三大題沒時間看, 所以就直接看答案, 猜解答了.
如果能把第一項的時間拿來這邊用, 應該是遊刃有餘
考官會提示還有多久時間, 其實剩五分鐘, 還有三篇沒寫完,
我的心就開始亂了, 但事實上, 應該有機會看完.

有人說閱讀測驗先做, 之後再回來做前面的題目,
我覺得這樣不妥耶...因為你要花時間看完文章, 才開始作答,
你做了 10題, 也許別人已經做了 30題了,
到最後手忙腳亂畫卡, 反而會有不良影響.

時間的掌握 超 級 重 要 !!!
沒時間考慮.也沒時間再把題目看第二次.聽力的部分盡量在下一題開始講之前.
就把題目掃過一遍.才抓的住重點.
第二部分也是.一直寫一直寫.都不停也不要考慮的寫下去.看過一遍猜出來的答案
總比到後來沒時間隨便亂猜來的好.

第一次考其實是去看場地的,尤其是考前一週呈狂加班狀態.只在考試前一天花了
2個小時再把longman那本翻一遍.應該要再多做一些模擬試題.加強看題目的速度.

1.TOEIC Official Test-Preparation Guide
2.TOEIC 多益聽力寶典
3.多益核心文法&解題公式
★強烈推薦Official Guide一定要做,考前一定要把書中兩份模擬試題做完。
第三本對於我的文法部分幫助很大,考前能多看幾次就多看幾次,好書啊~

§輔助
1.CNN
2.Advanced

§考前準備
我平時就幾乎天天碰英文
實際上開始認真準備的時間是考前一個月
我覺得我的聽力比較弱&文法比較弱
因此重點放在聽力以及文法
閱讀幾乎沒準備
這一個月我幾乎天天聽Advanced(當然是調最快的全速前進)
然後把CNN跟書中所附的聽力CD灌入我的MP3 PLAYER中
等公車時可以聽
CNN我只有看那麼一本 就把很多篇徹底聽懂 文章讀懂
所以我聽了N遍的帕華洛第訪問
學著去習慣CNN的速度
對我考中高級英檢以及TOEIC幫助很大

§考試當天
1.早餐是人類的好朋友,強烈建議考早場的人,早起吃頓早餐吧!不但可以讓自己不會
在聽力時恍掉,也可以在吃早餐時整理一下心情,來幾個深呼吸,如果有MP3 PLAYER
的話,聽一下英文或是英文歌,都有助於舒緩緊張的心情。
2.筆粗一點真的畫比較快,填問卷時,我就在想辦法把我的筆弄粗一點。
3.考前去上廁所,牛奶米漿豆漿優酪乳紅茶奶茶柳丁汁少喝一點,避免尿急而影響考試。
(因為我就是考到最後閱讀剩20分鐘時尿急,很痛苦。)

§考試心得
考聽力時,我的筆尖是在answer sheet上隨著答案而移動的,也就是說,當答案念到A,我就指A,如果我覺得答案是A,我就停在A上不動,如果是C,再換到C上。
1.看圖以及對話的部分,可以的話,答案念完,你的答案也要畫完,然後衝下一題提前 看題目,這樣可以省下一些時間。
2.這部份不會或聽不懂的,請直接亂猜,然後跳下一題看題目。爛一題總比爛十題好。

考聽力,最最重要的,一定要預覽題目,

尤其是最後一部分short talk,有預先看題目比較好抓你該聽的重點。
e.g.short talk我考到一題是how often does ......? 答案是 once a year. 還好我有先看題目,因此抓到了"annaully"這個字,不然這題只能亂猜。


考閱讀時,我覺得文法挑錯比我想像中簡單很多(所以我說那本文法的很好用),
但是因為我都沒背單字,所以單字題都選我會的XD。
1.單字題不會,請亂猜,閱讀就怕拖速度,沒寫完可比一題單字題不會還要嚴重許多。
2.文法部分的話,找一本適合自己的文法書很重要,可以加快解題速度。因為文法題我
大部分都沒在看題意,純粹從文法角度來分析。
3.閱讀的話,先看題目再看內文。我寫到後面60題左右就想翻桌了,耐心很重要,看在 1000多的份上,硬著頭皮也要寫完。估一下時間,強迫自己要在幾點前寫到哪,有助 於控制時間。
4.我寫完時還有5分鐘左右,這時我只想上廁所XD,主要是檢查閱讀的第一部分。

BTW
Official guide的速度比正常考試速度慢,所以我一開始有被嚇到,但還好是圖片題,可以慢慢抓回感覺,平時一定要常聽英文,降比較容易進入狀況,也不容易恍掉。我原以為我會考差的,拿到成績單時我整個傻眼,成績好到超乎我預期之外,可能歸功於我常做模擬試題以及天天碰英文的緣故吧!

所以,持之以恆還是有其重要性的啦~


我大概說一下我寫第三大題的狀況

ex. 51.why is miss wu leaving?

a.to join another company
b.to start her own business
c.to enter a race
d.to have a break from working

----------------------------------------

比如說寫完第50題
我會立刻看51題

先掃題目--> why 人 leave?(幹嘛走)

再掃選項--> a. another com(別家)
b. own biz(自已開)
c. race(比賽)
d. break(休假)

(心裡會os:這個人幹嘛走?被挖、自已閃、放假~~)



然後聽題目-->$%^$^(一開始都會有點糊)
中間一句唸到competitors made her an offer xxxxx~~~~~~

整題聽一聽,大約懂在講什麼方面的事。
但聽到關鍵字 "敵人 made an offer",我就立刻選a.

因為此時已經在猜他幹嘛走了,所以耳朵會找關鍵字。

-------------------------------------

我自已的方法是這樣啦~

閱讀題目大約掃題目和選項,但都沒整行看,只有看關鍵字。
聽力整題也是大約聽,但聽到關鍵字就立刻選了。


1. 能盡量提早到試場就盡量提早

總有ㄧ些無法預料的事情會出現造成不必要的緊張..像是這次的路途遙遠距離 遠出我的估計 進去電梯才發現不到我樓層 ...劃卡時看著隔壁畫的津津有味 <我指的是是基本資料..要不我今天分享的會是作弊心得嗎?! ~( ̄▽ ̄)~ >2. 帶去試場的東西 能簡化就簡化

其實 我發現 去到那 根本沒有多的時間給你看書阿

我帶了一大堆想要在考試前抱一下佛腳

根本進去後 就忘了差不多 前面劃基本資料的緊張感讓我忘了一切...

我在那看到有人用夾鏈袋 將所有基本東西放入 個人覺得是很好的辦法

3. 多做題目 多看有關的新聞

考完試時 我發現當初做ETS模擬試題是有用的

聽到那熟悉的聲音 頓時讓我之前緊張的心情放鬆了不少

閱讀也是很活的 或許就像很多人說的 時常接觸英文才是正確的準備心態

4. 很多資料可以先找到的應先去找

人的緊張感大多來自不熟悉

因此越熟悉 你就能更從容的去應試

相信板上有給了很多資訊 網路也是

對試場更熟悉 對考題熟悉 對應試規則熟悉

對你考試時的心情只有加分 也會對你的分數有加分作用啦!!


最後...我還是要說

我想我會再準備第二次吧!! 總覺得自己會更好

也希望每個第一次要去考的人 都能抱著從容的心態去應試

真的!! 心情決定一切 因為到了考試時 所有做的就是交給你的大腦判斷了

第一次考多益的話,重點在「熟悉題型」跟掌握「答題技巧」,畢竟它是考試,檢測你的英文聽力與閱讀的程度,但即使多益考高分,你也未必能說的出口、寫得出來,這是它的限制,明年加考說寫之後,不知道會不會好一點。

●推薦教材:

(1)《Longman Preparation Series for the Toeic Test: Advanced Course, 3/e
(With Answer Key)》

記住!一定要買Advanced Course(第3版,With Answer Key),而且要加買聽力5CD(裡頭的模考會用到)。它的特色是會花一半左右的篇幅,詳盡解說各種題型的答題技巧(克服出題陷阱),例如相似音、同義字、相關字組、連接詞、片語等等,然後講解完之後都會附上練習。

(2)《旋元佑文法》

如果你本身文法概念不清楚的話,建議去買一本《旋元佑文法》,用淺顯易懂的方式
讓你了解減化子句,最後你會恍然大悟,你以前閱讀能力無法提升,是因為你看不懂句型
結構,你分辨不出哪一句是主要子句、哪一句是從屬子句、哪一句又是補充說明等等,這
本可以幫你打下紮實的文法基礎。

(3)《TOEIC Official Test-Preparation Guide》

如果目標是900分的話,要再買一本《TOEIC Official Test-Preparation Guide》,
至少把整本做5遍,做得滾瓜爛熟。

【實戰經驗】

最後提供我的多益準備經驗。首先,市面上出的多益必備單字600、多益字彙3000絕對不要買,買回來一定會想睡覺。我強力推薦一個多益考800以上,又「不用背單字」的好方法:把《Longman Preparation Series for the Toeic Test: Advanced Course》整本生字查完,包含聽力裡頭的句子,然後把裡頭600題的模考,至少做5遍,做到滾瓜爛熟,光看題目就知道答案大概是什麼了。

我會這麼建議是因為,多益是商用英文,單字的範圍較窄,且有些單字出現頻率極高,所以我採用context(了解上下文的文章脈絡)來「認識單字」,畢竟背得再多,如果你聽不出來,或者在閱讀的時候無法幫助你了解句意,那也是枉然。

【總結】

(1)如果你文法基礎薄弱,建議你還不要急著去熟悉多益題型,因為事倍功半。趕快去買一 本《旋元佑文法》比較實在。

(2)目標多益800分以上,請把《Longman Preparation Series for the Toeic Test:
Advanced Course》整本生字查完,狂做5遍以上,因為裡頭的單字出現頻率極高。

(3)目標多益900分以上,請把《TOEIC Official Test-Preparation Guide》整本單字查完 ,狂做5遍以上,因為裡頭的模考100%模擬考試情境,提高臨場應試的穩定度。

【密技】

(1)聽力第二部份的Question-Response,開頭「前兩個」字一定要聽懂。

通常開頭第一個字是「5W1H」,告訴你它在「問什麼」?第二個字通常是「助動詞」,告訴你等一下回答的時候要用過去式、未來式還是完成式,這裡會有陷阱,常常你會發現這個答案說得通,但是時態不對,還是錯。所以掌握這個技巧就可以輕鬆答題。

(2)要預留「40分鐘」給最後的Reading Comprehension。

考完多益,走出考場,很多人都會碎碎念:「閱讀寫不完」。在這裡提供一個必殺技,經過我反覆測試,你一定要留「40分鐘」給最後的Reading Comprehension。所以你前面的Incomplete Sentences跟Error Recognition必須在「35分鐘」內做完,平均一分鐘要做
2題。

【最後的小叮嚀】

雖然這只是一個考試,目標只有一個,就是把分數考高,但如果你在準備考試的過程中,一昧的把多益900來激勵自己,例如書桌前貼「目標:多益900」、或頭上綁頭巾「目標:多益900」,只會徒增給自己強大的考試壓力。所以,我覺得「心態」要調整過來,把重點放在─「在準備多益的過程中,我的英文程度提昇了多少」。照我的方法,每天排一個自己可以負荷又不會太輕鬆的進度,紮實的去念,假以時日,英文就會進步。例如突然有一天,你轉台到「旅遊生活頻道」,你終於聽得懂伊恩萊特或那五個酷男在說什麼了,這就是一種成長,代表你開竅了...Anyway,祝大家英文學習順利\

Barry老師推薦書

TOEIC相關進修書籍

在市面上有發行的相關進修書籍中,Barry認為有一些對各位有幫助的,大部分是原文書,Barry十分鼓勵大家使用原文書,養成用英文學習新知的好習慣(對於大部分"舊知",大家多半還是受到思考習慣影響,一定會用中文在腦海中翻譯,因此,也不妨看一看中文版)

左邊Barry列出書名、作者、出版社(代理商),同時,也有短評及建議,供大家參考,但是有句成語:one's poison is another's meat. 青菜蘿蔔各有所好,要不要選購,還是要考慮一下,畢竟書價格不菲。

若讀者有書籍要推薦,也請來函。注意: 新版的書都是新制多益考題, 2007要考的, 用舊版.

購書網站:
進口多益書籍在通俗書局是找不到的,專業語言書局卻不普遍,若讀者不住在都會區,可能上網省時, Barry介紹的書多半在下列網站找的到:http://toeic.barry.com.tw 多益補給站

Complete Guide to TOEIC, The (UPDATED Ed.)

Rogers, Bruce 文鶴出版 (注意不要買到NEW FORMAT)


初級學習寶典,適合初次接觸多益、以及沒去補習,在家中自修。本書從最基礎開始,分門別類各種題型讓讀者熟習、掌握全貌、見樹又見林。

各部分之解題技巧值得一讀,練習題也要寫,對於目標500-600的考生,本書是必備。對於目標700以上者,建議詳讀解題技巧即可。

(已經改版,內含互動光碟,值得利用練習)




30 DAYS TO THE TOEIC TEST

忠欣 代理 (新書無售, 請找二手書)
這是ETS的官方複習書,與另一本official TOEIC Test Preparation guide許多題目類似,所以,在預算不足下,可以二者選其一購買本書, 作為初步練習。本書最大好處是能有系統快速瞭解TOEIC考試,並且有錦囊妙計教導考試要點. CD的發音與考試類似,所以,值得天天聆聽來習慣語調。


Preparation course for the Toeic Test

By Steinberg

文鶴


中高級程度,共有三份模擬考題,答案以及解題都在本書裡,錄音帶另外買,不便宜。(錄音帶發音速度很快,程度中等會有挫折感)

我喜歡本書之閱讀測驗,與實際考題程度相當。缺點是解題太簡單,答案也有少部分印錯,需要有導師指導講解。

另外有第一冊,簡單一些,也是三份試題。


Longman Preparation Series for the TOEIC Test 2/e  

Lougheed, Lin (不要買到新版的多益題型)

文鶴


目標700以上考生必備,難度較高,聽力部分具有挑戰性,是目前各大補習班主要指定教材

本系列分為初級、高級以及練習題三本,作者Dr. Lougheed出過其他幾種TOEIC測驗書籍,內容水準一流。想拿高分又不想去補習,他的書是一定要看的啦!(尤其是聽力部分!)

注意,考生銀兩要充足,本系列分為題目、解答、錄音帶三部分,要個別購買,若有經濟考量,可選購高級(advanced course)本。


The Official TOEIC Test Preparation Guide
(with audio CD)

忠欣代理


TOEIC官方測試指南,聽到的人聲、範例講解都和實際考試一樣,算是熟習測試的最佳選擇。

內含一個小測試、兩個模擬測試、以及應考策略(很中肯,對增強實際英文功力幫助很大),並附CD三片,以及詳細解答,在考試前一週再熟習聽力人聲,效果不錯。


How to Prepare for the TOEIC Test: Test of English ...(Book+4CD)

Lougheed, Lin

書林、笛籐


初學者500-600適用:Barron's出的參考書在美國銷售一向不錯,同時,也是Dr. Lougheed的大作,更是不容忽視。

本書有深入的應考對策、加上超值6個模擬測驗以及一個小測驗、考題講解,附4片CD。另外、也分原文版以及中文版(笛籐出版,價格更划算!)可以選擇。

老實說,題目難度不高,聽力之人聲也和實際考試有一點差異(比較慢一點),對程度高之考生,可以省時省錢,去看China Post。


TOEIC Business Idioms from Silicon Valley

忠欣代理


中高級700以上適用,官方推出之商用片語,對增強英文功力十分有效。

針對多益測試,不要期望考題會從本書出現,英文片語太多,本書僅收集百餘個片語。然而、對於想要增強職場英文聽力、會話能力者,本書值得細讀。


Speaking Clearly

Pamela Rogerson.Judy B. Gilbert

東華 (新書找不到 可以買二手)


單純為增強聽力的讀者推薦,本書雖然有些年紀(還好十年前的英文和現在差不多!)但是在逐步增強聽力及發音上,卻能打好基礎功夫,熟讀此書,英文聽力會話會有想不到的明顯進步。

(英式發音)




TOEIC 必備片語

板場良久 著.黃紋繡 譯

三思堂
多益測驗考生有八成是日本韓國人,日本人對英文的崇拜更是舉世皆知(在日本,能說一口漂亮英文,會引起路人羨慕的眼光),日本,可以說是TOEIC的第二祖國,當然,日本編寫的多益書,更是原文書外的另一種選擇。


TOEIC 考前十天對策

八島智子 著.李桂芳 譯

三思堂
我喜歡本書,如同書名一般,實實在在將考前最重要十天的應考策略翔實說明,尤其是心理、生理上的調整,如同聯考一般叮嚀。當然,Toeic可以考很多次,但是,要確認每一次都是最佳狀況。另一本Toeic學習策略也值得推薦。


多益文法本領書

貝塔
忘了文法?本書重新拾回國高中時代記憶,學生時代的文法書不是破破的,就是放在老家(可能回收了),本書好處是:內容精簡(一般文法書內容複雜,十分適合睡覺前助眠),讓你回復記憶,面對TOEIC也足矣!


600 Essential Words For the TOEIC Test

Longheed, Lin

敦煌、笛籐
全民必備,凡是單字能力需要增強,一定要把本書背熟。文法也能一起複習,是案頭上不可缺少的單字文法書。
Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English 若讀者想利用準備多益的時候,好好的收拾舊山河,持續K好英文,同時,600 essential words 也K的興趣盎然,那麼這一本朗文英英字典可以讓你更上一層樓,內附光碟含有最受初學者推崇的activator,能讓你活用英文思考,真的很不錯。原來字典也可以那麼好看!
Smart 英語教室文法課 (貝塔語言出版)

本書值得細讀的地方是文法、拼字、發音基本概念十分清楚,TOEIC考的文法也不就是如此耶!另一個好處是,本書是寫給洋人看的,各位要知道,洋人鮮有K過文法書,就好像你沒有K過中文文法書一般。教洋人的文法一定是淺顯易懂,講的都是連洋人都時常犯的文法錯誤,各位可以來換個角度學習,讓學文法也可以躺著看。

若想要知道更多文法規則,還是乖乖看傳統文法書吧! 本書,算是啟發你對文法的好感!
字彙500輕鬆背--職場篇 貝塔語言出版 本書最大優點在於範圍針對工作,也就是TOEIC最喜歡討論的範圍,另外,附一張CD可以在公車上、捷運上、開車中、睡覺前聽,不必像國中生死記單字。因為他是用說的,用耳朵聽聲音即可,同時,內容每天也用的到!相信背單字不用苦讀了。
多益挑戰900-題型透析 (貝塔語言出版)

想要考到900分? 解題與補充戰鬥力兩大部分是Barry欣賞的部分,要領略解題技巧,需要多多磨練,徹底相信作者解題方法 若一時無法領略解題精髓,還有補充戰鬥力可以提升實力,幫大家溫故知新,整理的相當不錯,省去許多時間。

以本書的價格及內容,算是十分划算,就算不打算考900分,也可以增強實力,對於已經有600分以上功力,卻無法突破的考生,可以翻一翻,不會浪費時間。
