托福模考套题都刷完了，分数还是很低怎么办?
传统刷题法和托福一点都不搭
备考托福要从OG和单词开始，做模考题更多的是让你熟悉托福考试的题型和难度，而不是提升自己水平的有效方法。对于绝大多数中国同学来说，“刷题”是一件再平常不过的事儿了。似乎从小学开始，我们的学习生活就和“题海”以及“做题”深深地连在了一起。小编至今依然记得，中考/高考前老师发过的几乎可以堆积成山的各类试题和试卷，各种真题、模拟题、竞赛题……回忆起学生岁月，似乎最多的就是不断做题，不断听老师讲题。直到工作后进入出国留学教育行业，小编才发现，中国学生在准备托福这种语言类出国考试的时候，依然试图通过“刷题”这种方式来获得高分。而小编被考生问的最多的问题之一，也正是：“托福模考题真题都刷完了，可我的分数还是很捉急，怎么破?”
面对这样的问题，最常见的回复通常是：“你可以把做过的错题总结一下，或者背下来，避免重复犯错。”灌鸡汤的回复则是：“这很正常，人生就是这样，要不断犯错，才能知道怎么前进。”还有不靠谱的回复是：“回去把这些题目拿出来重新做N遍。”无论是哪种回复，其实对于考生解决问题都没有太大的实际帮助，而很多同学在得到这种回复后，也依然很难找到进一步提升的方法。为什么刷题没有让准备托福以及其它出国留学考试的童鞋获得理想的高分?为什么我们坚持了十几年以至于现在依然在坚持的“题海战术”在托福学习过程中失效了呢?
做题是检测手段不是训练手段
要讨论这个问题，小编认为大家需要明白这两条根本我们需要承认两条基本假设：
1、模考题里的题目，原本是用于对考生进行测试评估，而不是进行训练的;
2、任何题目都是在检测考生的某一项或某几项能力。
如果你认为这两条基本假设不对，那么后面的文字就可以不用继续看了，因为所有讨论都会建立在这两个前提基础之上。
按照这两条假设，我们可以试想一下，如果一个同学，做了一道托福考试中的真题，无非会产生两个结果：做对和做错(蒙对的也算做错)。如果他做对了，意味着在这道题希望检测的能力上，他没有表现出任何缺陷。那么，做这道题本身不会改变任何他的能力。一个简单的例子是：1+1=?这个题目对于大多数人来说，不论做多少遍，都不会改变自身能力。换句话说，做对的题对学生而言，是白!做!了!相反，如果这个题目他做错了，则意味着他在这个题目所要检测的能力点上出现了缺陷，在这种情况下，继续做题所产生的结果，无非是不断重现这种缺陷，也不会对他的能力产生本质的改变。
这个道理其实很像我们去做体检。在体检中，表现正常的检查其实只是给了我们一点信心和安慰，因为它告诉我们——身体的某个器官或者机能没有问题。换句话说，正常的检查等于是“白做了”。相反，检查出问题的地方，我们要做的是去医院做针对性的治疗，而不是希望通过不断体检来让这个问题消失。
那么，结论来了：做题只是一种检测手段，而不是训练手段!这和我们的假设1是吻合的，因为这符合题目产生的“初心”。
避免刷题无用功，学会有效分析找缺陷
可是，问题也来了：为什么过去我们做数理化的题目，好像就获得了进步呢?为什么有些人就是做了真题，也在托福考试获得了高分呢?
第一个问题其实很好解释。对于数理化这种理科类的专业，学科知识点和题目是高度融合的，换句话说，叫做测试题库和训练题库高度重合一致，对于这种学科，做题本身就是在针对性地训练能力。比如，一道检测勾股定理的数学题，通过做题本身，考生就可以掌握勾股定理，而不需要再做其他工作。但是，英语这种学科，测试题库和训练题库是高度背离不一致的，它的题目几乎不能起到训练作用。比如，考生做错了一道托福阅读题，背后的原因可能是单词不认识，也可能是句子没看懂，更可能是逻辑关系理解错了。对于不同的能力缺陷，我们应该用不同的方式来解决，而不是继续通过做题来试图获得提升。
至于第二个问题，实际上是一个逻辑上错误归因的范例。在托福考试获得高分是一个结果，导致这个结果的原因会很多，做题只是一种表现，我们在不能排除他因的时候，不能认为做真题是导致高分的直接原因。那么，难道做题或者“刷题”就一点用都没有么?很多人总是希望用非黑即白的思维方式来考虑问题。而小编前面也说过，做题的一个价值就是检测考生的能力缺陷。所以，适当做题、定期做题是必要的，因为我们必须不断地知道自己的问题在哪儿。此外，做题还是很好的心理安慰剂，可以让我们觉得“其实自己蛮拼的”。当然，对于个别能力缺陷，比如单词不认识，通过做题也可以解决一些，只不过，效率超级低罢了。对于我们来说，做题其实只是获得进步过程中的一个点，而不应该是一个每天持续的线。在做题之后，学会有效的分析、找到能力缺陷，并且针对能力缺陷配置对应的“训练题库”，才会真正达到有效提高的目的。
人最痛苦的事情是“钱花光了，人还没死”，而对于学生而言，最最痛苦的事情，是“题做没了，分还没上去。“所以，为了避免备考做无用功，学会正确合理的使用模考题才是你首先要做好的事。
托福写作模板:成功与品质
托福写作模板及范文参考：
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? One of the characteristics of successful leaders is their sense of responsibility in accepting their mistakes.
托福写作范文参考：
Undoubtedly, successful leaders may have various kinds of characteristics, such as honesty and loyalty. However, some people wonder if the sense of responsibility in accepting their mistakes is the characteristic they possess. I believe that successful leaders’ capability is great enough that they can handle the consequences of their mistakes, especially when considering the power they hold and the knowledge they possess.
Firstly, these leaders have great influence on society. This influence can help them resolve the very problem they cause. For example, the leaders in the government passed a policy of printing more currency for our country three years ago. After this policy was enforced, it had a significant impact on our society. Frankly, our society has experienced great inflation and the value of our money has depreciated greatly. One noticeable consequence is that the price of various products has increased largely. When the leaders in the government learned the destructive results of their policy, they took action to resolve the issue. Now the negative impact of this policy is all but extinct. Using this example we can see that leaders have the power to solve their own mistakes.
Further, these leaders have the wisdom to solve the errors they commit. Generally, such leaders all have a strong background in academics. Consequently, they are very likely to provide efficient solutions for their mistakes. For example, Andrew, the CEO of Siemens Cooperation, graduated with a Computer science degree from MIT. He designed a new office system for auto-management. In this system, some bugs were not discovered before implementation. Three months ago, he discovered the bugs. Now, he has proposed an efficient solution to eliminate the damage, which may have been inflicted by the bugs. With education in computer science, he was able to resolve the problems completely. Thus, it can be inferred that leaders in business can often find a solution for their problems. Further, it reveals that they can be responsible for their mistakes.
Admittedly, the mistakes caused by these leaders initially seem irrevocable. Sometimes, these mistakes might have already imposed tremendous influence on the public. However, leaders can still try their best to protect people from further harms. Only through admitting and correcting their mistakes timely can they maintain their success and win their reputation back.
In a nutshell, due to their abilities as leaders and their superior education, I believe that these successful leaders can be responsible for the mistakes they commit.
托福写作模板:学生参与决策
托福写作模板及范文参考：
At some universities, students take part in making decisions about the issues that affect daily life of everyone on campus, such as how many hours that the libraries should be open each day or what kinds of food should be served in the cafeteria. But at some universities, experts are hired to make this decisions, students almost never involved. Which approach do you prefer and why.
托福写作范文参考：
We can never over emphasize the importance of campus life during which people mature intellectually and psychologically. It is a university’s unshakable responsibility to provide qualified education and various facilities. For a university to function well, there must be effective and reasonable rules regulating behaviors of both students and staffs. In my mind, it is students, but not experts, who should be responsible for the making of rules.
Admittedly, inviting professional and experienced experts to make rules is an easy solution for universities to effectively manage students and staffs. Given years of work experience, experts not only understand students’ needs and preferences, but also know well how to help students regulate behaviors, such as cultivating good habits, managing time and having healthy diets. For example, to encourage students to have enough time to sleep, experts usually require libraries to close at 10 o’clock; also, to help students keep healthy, they demand dining halls to provide nutritious food, such as organic vegetables and fruits.
However, it is actually difficult for experts to truly think from students’ perspective, so some of their rules may be not appropriate. On the contrary, students, though inexperienced, deserve the right to make rules for themselves and the opportunity to improve their abilities to manage. To begin with, it is students who study and live on campus that can enact rules flexible and reasonable enough to help students improve efficiency in both study and social activities. However, experts, as observers of students, may be unavoidably theoretical. For instance, during exam weeks, it is inconvenient to close libraries at 10 o’clock, as many students need more time and a quiet place to finish their assignments and prepare for exams, which is usually ignored by experts.
Secondly, it is also universities’ duty to help students learn self-management and leadership by giving them the right to enact rules for all students on campus. Undoubtedly, student government ought to take the responsibility to collect students’ opinions from polls, negotiate with students having different requirements, and finally introduce rules that can be respected and observed by all. Since these are rules made by students themselves, there is no reason to complain and violate. Moreover, this is a rare opportunity for members of student government to enhance leadership and management capability. Though the process will be surely time consuming and even arouse various problems, it is worthy given the huge benefits to students.
To sum up, endowing students the right to make rules for themselves is a better option for universities to accommodate students’ needs and help them grow up.
托福写作模板:现在更容易获得教育
托福写作模板及范文参考：
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? It is easier for more people now than in the past to get an education.
托福写作范文参考：
The twentieth and twenty-first centuries have seen the development and advancement of many fields and areas of society. Education is an area that has developed tremendously in the past hundred years. The rise of the middle class, the standardization of education, and the opening of many more schools has made it possible for more people now than in the past to get an education.
In China specifically, education reform began with the opening up and reform period of the 1980’s. During this time China also opened up its economy and changed from a state run economy to a market economy. A market economy in China has made it possible for the development of the middle class. Historically throughout the world, education belonged to the social elites. People from the lower class, which always outnumbered the upper class, did not have the money or resources to become educated. The middle class is a group of people who are not necessarily the elites of society, but have the money to pay for education. Since the 1980’s, the middle class has been rapidly growing, increasing ten-fold the number of children who have the opportunity to get an education.
With the rise of the middle class, also comes an increase in pressure on the government. Since more people can afford education, more pressure is put on the government to provide teachers and schools for the children of the middle class. The government is then spurred into action to increase funding and resources for education nationwide. This has then prompted the opening of schools in many areas beyond the major cities and the training of many new teachers. More teachers and more schools mean that more people will be educated.
The government’s attention on education has helped with the standardization of education in China. This standardization has created nationwide tests that have made it so that every student, no matter his or her background or hometown, has the opportunity to attend high school and apply for college. Not only do more students have the opportunity to attend school, but they also have the opportunity to continue their education further than previous generations.
The rise of the middle class, the increased involvement of the government, and the standardization of education has made it so that more people, now than ever, have the opportunity to become educated.
都用托福模考软件练阅读，为何分数差这么多?刷题正确题姿势了解一下
1. 刷阅读模考软件别忘了积累词汇量
首先，谈到托福单词的记忆，也许我们会更多的想到使用一本托福词汇记忆书，而不是模考软件资料。这个看法其实有点想当然。
大家要注意的是，对于托福考试来说，词汇记忆并不是考试的最终目的，而是词汇记忆的真正目的，还是要让我们将词汇回归到文章中加之理解。所以，在模考软件阅读的练习中，同时进行词汇的记忆，未尝不是一件行之有效的事情。
我们如果在阅读的同时，对于一些生词多加记忆或是在阅读完成之后，对全文再次进行系统的翻译，将会对自己的词汇量有了很大的提升和进步。
2. 刷模考软件练阅读要重视分析出题思路
其次，在所有的托福备考资料中，托福模考软件模考是最能原汁原味的还原出托福真题的思路细节的。很多同学刷了模考软件没进步，问题就在太被动，只知道做题不知道想问题。
因此，在应对托福阅读的过程中，小编建议大家不要过于在意自己每天的刷题量，而需要特别关注的是，自己对于题目、题型以及相关出题点的细节了解。
了解出题人的目的是为了避免自己在解题的过程中思路分析上有偏差或是钻牛角尖，所以在平时的练习中就要通过练习真题来了解出题人的一般出题点以及熟悉考题类型以增加答题的正确率。
3. 做完题后对答案还要深入分析
另外，之前小编也提到，托福模考软件模考目前有着50多套的模考试题，也就是说，在这其中有着160多篇阅读理解的文章。明明题目那么多，为什么都做完了还是没达到预期分数呢?
其实，在刷题的过程中，错题回顾也是一个很重要的细节，而一个步骤是最容易被忽视，但却是最为关键的。我们在做完题目之后，必须对于每一道题的每一个选项都进行深入分析，而不仅仅是分析做错的题目，更不能只分析做题选错的那个选项。
小编建议大家在做完题后的分析环节一定要做精做细，无论答题结果是对是错，都要尽可能把题目每个选项都仔细拆开来研究一下，看看选项中到底包含着哪些出题点干扰项，分析到底原文是怎么说，以及原文到底哪一句话得出了这道题的正确答案。
总之，对于托福阅读的备考来说，使用官方模考软件模考工具会为你带来不小的帮助，但是学会如何合理的应用也是非常重要的关键，希望以上的讲解能为大家的备考带来帮助。
托福写作模板:好邻居
托福写作模板及范文参考：
Neighbors are the people who live near us. In your opinion， what are the qualities of a good neighbor? Use specific details and examples in your answer.
托福写作范文参考：
If you have a good neighbor， you are a lucky person. You have someone who cares about your needs and your property， who is helpful in the little day-to-day situations that come up， and who is supportive in times of crisis.
A good neighbor is someone who， for instance， understands that your children may occasionally run across his lawn，- even though you tell them not to. He'll realize that children can be careless about things like that， and he won't make a big fuss about it unless it becomes a regular thing. In the same vein， he knows that you'll understand if some of the trash from his trash cans blows across into your yard. In other words， he is sensitive to the unintentional things that can happen. He doesn't make a big deal about them.
A good neighbor is also respectful of your property. For example， she asks your permission before doing anything that interferes with what's yours. This means she wouldn't plant a huge tree in between your houses without asking how you felt about it. If she wanted to put up a fence， she would let you know first. She might work with you to decide where it should be placed. Maybe the two of you would even split the cost.
A good neighbor would lend you some milk if you ran out. She'd give you a ride to work if your car was broken， and let your children stay at her house in the evening if you got stuck working overtime. You would do the same for her. Both of you would help make the other's life easier.
When something really awful happens to you， like a death in the family， a good neighbor will volunteer to help in any way he can. This could mean something small， like making some casseroles to put in your freezer to feed visiting relatives. Or it could mean something big， like helping you get through the sadness of the funeral.
I think only someone who has experienced a bad neighbor can really appreciate a good one! A good neighbor can be a good friend. He or she can make all the difference in the world to your life.
托福写作模板:电力
Electricity
The modern age is an age of electricity. People are so used to electric lights, radio, televisions, and telephones that it is hard to imagine what life would be like without them. When there is a power failure, people grope about in flickering candlelight, cars hesitate in the streets because there are no traffic lights to guide them, and food spoils in silent refrigerators.
Yet, people began to understand how electricity works only a little more than two centuries ago. Nature has apparently been experimenting in this field for million of years. Scientists are discovering more and more that the living world may hold many interesting secrets of electricity that could benefit humanity.
All living cell send out tiny pulses of electricity. As the heart beats, it sends out pulses of record; they form an electrocardiogram, which a doctor can study to determine how well the heart is working. The brain, too, sends out brain waves of electricity, which can be recorded in an electroencephalogram. The electric currents generated by most living cells are extremely small - often so small that sensitive instruments are needed to record them. But in some animals, certain muscle cells have become so specialized as electrical generators that they do not work as muscle cells at all. When large numbers of these cell are linked together, the effects can be astonishing.
The electric eel is an amazing storage battery. It can seed a jolt of as much as eight hundred volts of electricity through the water in which it live. ( An electric house current is only one hundred twenty volts.) As many as four-fifths of all the cells in the electric eel’s body are specialized for generating electricity, and the strength of the shock it can deliver corresponds roughly to length of its body.
托福写作模板:电视或者电影影响
托福写作模板及范文参考：
How do movies or television influence people's behavior? Use reasons and specific examples to support your answer.
托福写作范文参考：
Do movies and television affect our behavior? I believe that movies and television do influence our behavior， both for the better and for the worse.
Movies and television influence our behavior because they make us less active. Looking at films is a passive activity. If we watch too much， we become unhealthy， both mentally and physically. We stop using our own imagination when we see things acted out for us. Mental laziness becomes physical laziness; we'd rather watch sports on TV than play sports ourselves. We'd rather visit with the characters on “Seinfeld” or “Friends” than go chat with our own neighbors. Imaginary people have exciting lives. Is it any wonder that some people would rather live a fantasy life than their own? Movies and television also can make people more violent. The more we see violent acts on television， the less sensitive we become to them： Eventually violence doesn't seem wrong. We may even commit violent acts ourselves. This is especially true because we don't always realize that violence has consequences. Actors can be killed and come back for another movie. Sometimes we confuse that with reality. We forget that killing someone is permanent.
Of course， watching movies and television can also be good for us. It can give us a broader window on the world. For example， seeing movies can expose us to people of different races and cultures. We can then overcome some prejudices more easily. Recently there have been more handicapped people in films， and this also helps reduce prejudice.
The best influence on our behavior is that movies and television reduce stress. Watching films， we can escape our own problems for a little while. Also， sometime movies show positive ways to resolve problems we all face. While TV and movies shouldn't be a way to hide from life， sometimes they can help us cope.
It is true that movies and television can influence our behavior negatively. However， I also believe that they influence our behavior in positive ways. How they affect you depends on how much you watch， what you watch， and how you respond to what you watch.
托福听力备考如何结合官方模考真题来练习?
托福听力备考各阶段TPO用法介绍：备考初期
这是大家刚开始接触，还是处于摸索阶段，相当于新手，分数的话应该在12~15分左右，在这个时候的主要目标就是熟悉托福听力的题型和考试内容，借此摸索出适合自己的托福学习方法，在这个阶段，较为适合的就是TPO1~10，适当穿插OG。这是老年代的版本，整体来说是比较简单的，当然8和9相对于这一个阶段，会有一点点难度，如果因此错的不是很好，也不要因此而沮丧，继续努力学习，总会克服的!
托福听力备考各阶段TPO用法介绍：备考中期
度过了初始阶段，一般情况下这时候你的听力成绩大概是在16~19这个阶段，到了这个阶段，我们不在只能够简单的熟悉题型了，还要进行题型的分类，场景的分类，科学背景的分类，进行专项强化训练，体会不同题型的解题技巧，这个阶段的练习材料可以用TPO11~25，像这一部分的话，前面的部分属于普通的难度，中间部分会提升一点难度，像15、16、19里面都有一篇较难的文章，21到25中的难度又有所提升，一步步的训练，一步步的增强。
托福听力备考各阶段TPO用法介绍：备考后期
度过了第二个阶段，在第三阶段处，你的托福听力大概是在20~24分，所以我们就需要进行强化了，说道强化，其实在前面部分已经有所强化了，只是没有那么针对性的训练，属于附带的，但是在这个阶段就要进行专项强化，强化包括适应听力部分的长度和考试强度，体会对话的话题转折点所在，理清讲座的段落层次考点。训练的材料可以使用TPO26~35.
托福听力备考各阶段TPO用法介绍：考前冲刺
毕竟朝着28+前进才是你的目标，说是冲刺，不如说是巩固更好，熟练的使用解题技巧，调整自身心态，所以剩下的TPO36~54就是到这一阶段使用的，时间充足刷完就可，如果时间不是那么充足，那就量力而行，能刷几套是几套，我们不要忘了我们在这一阶段的初心，巩固，稳固心态。
有的备考生看了之后可能觉得无从下手，不知道怎样好好听一篇文章，没事，这里给你分享听力八步法：
第一步：完整听一篇文章的音频并完成题目;
第二步：改正错题，标注出答案对应的原文出处;
第三步：分析每一个题目的每一个选项，为什么对，为什么错;
第四步：分析原文的考点，为什么作者要在这里出题目;
第五步：分析每一个考点出现前的提示词，或重要逻辑关系;
第六步：分析这篇文章的结构，是总分总，还是总分，还是总分分等，话题转折处如何衔接;
第七步：根据原文做笔记的训练，对照练习笔记和自己最初的笔记;
第八步：摘抄词汇和短语整理场景词汇，并储备相关场景单词。
托福听力：具有价值的信息
从conversation题目来看，问题不重要，答案更加重要;答案的开始部分比较重要，因为这里是观点出现的问题，其后对于观点的解释相对次要;不是每一个question + answer的回合都重要，有明确的如Wh—的问题的回合才有价值，其后的起到confirmation作用的内容并不重要;不是每一个观点都重要，确定的观点才应该引起我们的注意，所谓的sometimes， maybe 等词语相关的句子往往只是起到对主要观点的铺垫作用;
相比较来说，lecture 这种题目的出题点更加难以寻找。Conversation的话题内容毕竟都是campus talks，所以难度不会太大;即使偶尔有一两个问题比较难，考生也可以果断地选择放弃，将精力投入到下一个问题中去，所以基本不存在考生在对话题目中根本听不懂或者因为一处听不懂影响对全篇对话理解的情况。
然而，lecture的内容包罗万象，新托福的官方指南给出了46个学科，而实际考试中也可能出现更多的学科和话题;lecture也没有 conversation题目中相对明确的回合概念，很多时候我们不得不根据上下文进行推理，在托福听力考试过程中理顺 lecture 的主要内容。
的讲师能够吸引学生的注意力，然后提出自己认为重要的观点，不管是使用何种方法，他们总是能让你记住他们的观点。新托福听力考试所要展示给考生们的当然也是的讲师，考试考察的绝大部分内容当然也是重要的观点。
助于托福听力提升的方法
看美剧：托福听力不一定一上来就开始做题。刚开始应该着重于提高整体听力水平，等到听力水平到一定程度之后，再开始加大听力做题量，事半功倍。首先当然也是要总体提高听力水平，我比较推荐看经典的、较为简单美剧或者电影，寓教于乐。对于美剧来说，《Friends》是不二之选。当听力水整体平提高之后，就可以开始着手对付托福听力。其实我认为托福听力难的一点就是内容单调乏味，尤其是lecture，很容易引起走神。对于这一点，我建议在做听力时，不要把自己想成是在做题目，而是把自己想成是lecture中的一个学生，也就是说要参与到听力材料当中，这对集中注意力有很大帮助。
检查：托福听力，我发现所有错题，只有多两题到一题属于没听到，其他的都是踩陷阱了或者反应不够快。相信很多同学和我一样，看到答案的时候恍然大悟：怎么没选这个来着?这么明显的答案。所以我对有相同症状的同学建议，多总结自己为什么会这样出不必要的错误。而且我选择的时候越来越细心了，因为发现选答案的时间相当充分，总是可以剩几分钟来检查。所以一定要看清楚选项。托福要得高分，细节也很关键。不能总在失误上丢分，减少失误就是高分!

托福口语拓展：up the spout
去当铺，当然是穷困潦倒的时候啊。
按spout是从前当铺(pawnshop)把典押品传送到收藏处的吊车，所以，put something up the spout就是「把一件东西当了」，。此外，up the spout也往往引伸为「处境困难」或「完蛋了」的意思.
留意up the spout这个成语也可解作「怀孕」，所以用时必须小心，以免人家误解。至于up the spout之所以有「怀孕」意思，是因为孕妇处境困难还是暗喻精子的传送，却没有人可以断言了。

托福模考软件官方真题Official备考各阶段用法指南 原来模考还有那么多讲究(原TPO)
托福模考看重过程看轻结果
托福备考做模考题官方真题Official，考生最需要明确的一个基本概念就是看重过程看轻结果。做模考的目的有很多，但模考分数肯定是没有太大参考价值的，毕竟还没有参加实战，实际考场上的气氛也和模考完全不一样，考生自己的心态也会出现明显变化，模考什么都能模拟唯独心态是模拟不了的，这就注定了模考无法完全像实际考试那样给大家带来完整的考场体验。因此，模考结果考生并不需要太过关注，或者说模考成绩根本就不重要。考生需要投注目光的是托福模考的过程，大家在模考中到底经历了一些什么，获得了哪些宝贵经验，这才是模考的价值体现。所以，托福备考把成绩看得太重的做法，小编认为并不妥当。
托福备考初期靠模考来探底
探底或者说摸底对于新手考生来说是很重要的，只有知道了自己的不足考生才会有进步的动力和方向。认不清自己就会让备考计划变得一团糟。而模考无疑就是很好的手段。只看一两道题目也许考生会凭借运气做对，然后误会自己觉得水平还行。但通过一次完整的模考，到底有多少斤两就会显露无余。可以说模考能让新手彻底暴露出自身存在的问题，当然大家并不需要觉得难堪，这其实是很好的事情，暴露出来的问题越多越清晰，考生需要制定的计划就会越有针对性，而之后大家也能更直观地感受到自己的进步。所以在托福备考初期考生还处于懵懂阶段时，做一次完整模考是很有必要的，可以为大家以后的备考提供指点和参考。
备考陷入瓶颈做模考找突破口
托福备考进行到一定阶段后，许多同学都会遭遇所谓的瓶颈期，比起刚开始的实力高速增长分数蹭蹭蹭提升，考生似乎发现自己做了更多题目却已经没有了进步空间，而眼前的成绩其实还很难让人满意。到了这个时候，大家就可以通过模考来寻找突破口，找到进一步提升的方向。模考题目都是实战向题目，是官方为了让大家体验考试实际难度而提供的题目，这些题目会对考生解题中存在的问题，比如耗时过多解题思路过于繁琐或者解题方法不对等等都给出明确指引，通过让大家出错的方式，给考生提供新的思路并让大家在现有基础上更上一层楼。如果考生在某些题型中有着明显的薄弱环节，模考也会用错误率毫不留情的指出，这样一来之后该怎样继续进步，相信大家也就能够一清二楚了。
托福考前要做模考
托福考前阶段不用多说，很多人都会把这段时间作为模考的重点运用期，而考生在这个阶段主要任务之一就是做模考官方真题Official题目，当然做题的目标也很简单，那就是尽可能多地积累实战经验。虽然前文已经说过模考不能完全模拟实战，但至少能够在考试时间分配答题节奏等方面帮助大家提前适应考试，如果不想在考试中遇到时间不够用题目来不及做完等问题，那么通过模考大家妨提前体验一下这种感觉并找出解决方法，为考试打好预防针。
其实托福模考的作用还有很多，本文只是从时间角度出发来为大家分析具体的模考方法，小编相信大家都有比较完善的备考计划，但这些计划里可能并不一定都有模考的一席之地。而结合本文给出的参考建议，相信大家也已经意识到备考各阶段模考的价值所在了吧。
托福语法技巧：形容词+one/ones形容词作代词
大多数形容词可以和代词one(单数)/ones(复数)连用，这时one/ones代表前面已经提到过的名词：
Don’t buy the expensive apples;get the cheaper ones.
别买那价钱贵的苹果，买那便宜的。
Hard beds are healthier than soft ones.
硬板床比软床有利于健康。
I lost my old camera;this is a new one.
我的旧相机丢了;这是一架新的。
数词+形容词也可以带one/ones：
If you haven’t got a big plate，two small ones will do.
如果没有大盘子，两个小盘也行。
形容词作代词
first(第一)/second(第二)等可以和one/ones连用，也可以不和one/ones连用，即它们既可以作形容词又可以作代词：
—Which train did you catch?
—I caught the first(one).
—你赶上了哪班车?
—我赶上了头班车。
the+最高级也可以同样使用：
Tom is the best(runner).
汤姆是(跑得)最棒的。
The eldest was only ten.
最大的才十岁。
有时the+比较级也可以这样用：
Which(of these two)is the stronger?
(这两个之中)哪一个更强壮?
比较级的这种用法被认为更有书面英语的味道，在非正式英语中我们常用最高级来替代：
Which(of these two)is the strongest?
(两者中)哪个是最强壮的?
表示颜色的形容词有时可用做代词：
I like the blue(one) best.
我最喜欢蓝色的(那一个)。
表示马的颜色的词，特别是bay(红棕色的)、chestnu(栗色的)，grey(灰色的)，常当代词用，词尾加上s时表示复数：
Everyone expected the chestnut to win.
大家都预期那匹栗色的马能获胜。
The coach was drawn by four greys.
大马车由四匹灰色的马拉着。
托福语法技巧：many和much用法
many和much
many(形容词)用在可数名词之前。
much(形容词)用在不可数名词之前。
He didn’t make many mistakes.
他没犯多少错。
We haven’t much coffee.
家里的咖啡不多了。
many和much的比较级和最高级形式相同，都是more和most：
more mistakes/coffee更多的错误/咖啡
most men/damage 几乎全部的男士/几乎所有的损害
many，much，more，most可作代词使用：
He gets a lot of letters but she doesn’t get many.
他收到的信很多，可她的信不多。
You have a lot of free time but I haven’t much.
你有许多空闲时间，可我没有。
more和most的用法较灵活，many和much在否定动词后面用得比较多(见上文的例子)，但many和much在肯定动词和疑问动词后用法较受限制。
many和much与肯定动词连用
many前加上a good/great时可与肯定动词连用。many与much用so/as/too修饰时也可以与肯定动词连用。
I made a good many friends there.
我在那里交了许多朋友。
He has had so many jobs that.
他做过了这么多种工作，以致……
She read as much as she could.
她尽量多读书。
They drink too much(gin).
他们(杜松子酒)喝得太多了。
many是宾语或宾语的一部分而前面不加任何修饰语时，常常被 a lot/lots of(+名词)或a lot，lots(代词)代替。much是宾语或宾语的一部分时常常被a great/good deal of(+名词)或agreat/good deal(代词)代替：
I saw a lot/lots of seabirds.I expect you saw a lot too.
我看到了许多海鸟。想必你也看到了许多。
He spends a lot/lots of/a great deal of money on his house.
他在房子上花很多钱。
既可以用many也可以用a lot(of)作主语或作主语的一部分，
但这里的much通常由其他形式代替。
但much在正规英语中是允许这样用的：
Much will depend on what the minister says.
很多事要取决于部长怎么说。
试将肯定句和否定句作一比较：
He hasn’t won many races.
他没有赢过几次比赛。
You’ve won a lot/lots of races./You’ve won a lot./You’ve won a greatmany(races).
你赢过多次比赛。
He didn’t eat much fruit.
他没有吃多少水果。
She ate a lot/lots/a great deal of fruit./She ate a lot/a great deal.
她吃了大量的水果。
many和much与疑问动词连用
两者前都可加how：
How many times?
多少次?
How much?
多少?
在不用how的问句中，many也可使用。如预期得到的是肯定的回答，则最好使用a lot(of)：
Did you take a lot of photos?I expect you did.
你拍了许多照片吗?我想你拍了。
用much时不加how是可行的，但其他的几种用法更常见：
Did you have a lot of snow/much snow last year?
去年你们那儿雪下得多吗?
托福语法技巧：形容词+动词不定式
在B-E节中句子用it引导的结构。如果it+be…前的动词是find(发现)/think(想)/be-lieve(相信)等，有时可将that及动词be省略：

他没必要去报告警察。
It is only fair for him to have a chance.

官方真题Official模考练阅读基本思路：限时完成
除了单词之外的其他练习，都需要结合官方真题Official来完成。
做官方真题Official的时候务必要整套限时做。很多同学在备考的时候喜欢随性的来做官方真题Official，早上有时间做两道题，上课中间做个半篇文章，晚上回去再补完其他几道题目。有时候一天下来都未必能做完一整套官方真题Official。不幸的是，到了真正考试的时候，在1个小时的要求下(更不用说出现加试的情况了)，这些同学非常容易产生不适感，大大降低做第二篇或第三篇文章的状态及正确率。同时，由于平时没有催促自己尽快做完一道题目，考试的时候非常容易产生拖沓的问题，最终可能无法再规定时间内完成所有的题目。
希望大家每天都能完成一套官方真题Official的限时练习，但是如果你的阅读分数是20分或更高，并且你的“野心”也更大，那么我的建议是每天完成2套官方真题Official。虽然量很大，但是阅读的高分肯定需要付出更多的努力。
限时完成官方真题Official的时候，可以注意以下几点：
保证每篇文章在20分钟内完成，1套官方真题Official可在1小时内完成;
遇到个别题目，如果时间较长还没有解答出来，跳过该题目继续完成后面的题目，保证20分钟内完成一整篇文章;
每篇文章的第一题至插入题应压缩在16分钟内完成;
无法在限时内完成的主要原因是理解速度较慢，请一定重点完成文章精读和结构总结的任务。
托福阅读真题原题+题目
Perhaps one of the most dramatic and important changes that took place in the Mesozoic era occurred late in that era, among the small organisms that populate the uppermost, sunlit portion of the oceans — the plankton. The term plankton is a broad one, designating all of the small plants and animals that float about or weakly propel themselves through the sea. In the late stages of the Mesozoic era, during the Cretaceous period, there was a great expansion of plankton that precipitated skeletons or shells composed of two types of mineral: silica and calcium carbonate.
This development radically changed the types of sediments that accumulated on the seafloor, because, while the organic parts of the plankton decayed after the organisms died, their mineralized skeletons often survived and sank to the bottom. For the first time in the Earth's long history, very large quantities of silica skeletons, which would eventually harden into rock, began to pile up in parts of the deep sea. Thick deposits of calcareous ooze made up of the tiny remains of the calcium carbonate-secreting plankton also accumulated as never before. The famous white chalk cliffs of Dover, in the southeast of England, are just one example of the huge quantities of such material that amassed during the Cretaceous period; there are many more. Just why the calcareous plankton were so prolific during the latter part of the Cretaceous period is not fully understood. Such massive amounts of chalky sediments have never since been deposited over a comparable period of time.
The high biological productivity of the Cretaceous oceans also led to ideal conditions for oil accumulation. Oil is formed when organic material trapped in sediments is slowly buried and subjected to increased temperatures and pressures, transforming it into petroleum. Sediments rich in organic material accumulated along the margins of the Tethys Seaway, the tropical east-west ocean that formed when Earth's single landmass (known as Pangaea) split apart during the Mesozoic era. Many of today's important oil fields are found in those sediments — in Russia, the Middle East, the Gulf of Mexico, and in the states of Texas and Louisiana in the United States.

托福阅读真题原题+题目
The term art deco has come to encompass three distinct but related design trends of the 1920's and 1930's. The first was what is frequently referred to as zigzag moderne — the exotically ornamental style of such skyscrapers as the Chrysler Building in New York City and related structures such as the Paramount Theater in Oakland, California. The word zigzag alludes to the geometric and stylized ornamentation of zigzags, angular patterns, abstracted plant and animal motifs, sunbursts, astrological imagery, formalized fountains, and related themes that were applied in mosaic relief, and mural form to the exterior and interior of the buildings. Many of these buildings were shaped in the ziggurat form, a design resembling an ancient Mesopotamian temple tower that recedes in progressively smaller stages to the summit, creating a staircase-like effect. The second manifestation of art deco was the 1930's streamlined moderne style — a Futuristic-looking aerodynamic style of rounded corners and horizontal bands known as speed stripes. In architecture, these elements were frequently accompanied by round windows, extensive use of glass block, and flat rooftops.
The third style, referred to as either international stripped classicism, or simply classical moderne, also came to the forefront during the Depression, a period of severe economic difficult in the 1930's. This was a more conservative style, blending a simplified modernistic style with a more austere form of geometric and stylized relief sculpture and other ornament, including interior murals. Many buildings in this style were erected nationwide through government programs during the Depression.
Although art deco in its many forms was largely perceived as thoroughly modern, it was strongly influenced by the decorative arts movements that immediately preceded it. For example, like art nouveau (1890-1910), art deco also used plant motifs, but regularized the forms into abstracted repetitive patterns rather than presenting them as flowing, asymmetrical foliage, like the Viennese craftspeople of the Wiener Werkstatte, art deco designers worked with exotic materials, geometricized shapes, and colorfully ornate patterns. Furthermore, like the artisans of the Arts and Crafts Movement in England and the United States, art deco practitioners considered it their mission to transform the domestic environment through well-designed furniture and household accessories.

3. The phrase The first in line 2 refers to
(A) the term art deco
(B) design trends

(A) describe the exterior shape of certain art deco buildings
(B) explain the differences between ancient and modern architectural steles
