Comparison of TOEFL, IELTS and CET6

Take the TOEFL. IELTS does not need to pass level 4 or 6.

Band 46 has nothing to do with IELTS and TOEFL, which are Chinese-wide English exams, while IELTS and TOEFL are from North America. You don't need to pass CET-4 to pass IELTS and TOEFL, but you need to have the ability to pass IELTS and TOEFL.

1.First of all, CET-4.

That is, the level of high school graduation.

2000 basic vocabulary is enough to cope with college English level 4, if level 4 is not enough many times, it proves that the English foundation is quite poor, and IELTS and TOEFL are both listening and speaking. An English proficiency test with no low reading and writing requirements.

The former is a Commonwealth country.

Immigration and study abroad, the latter is a subject for students studying in the United States. Generally speaking, if you want to get a high score in IELTS and TOEFL, your vocabulary must at least exceed 8000, so if you want to challenge IELTS and TOEFL, you should first make up the vocabulary basics.

2.Second, CET-4 and CET-6.

The test questions are given by Chinese teachers, while the IELTS and TOEFL questions are written by experts from British and American countries. In this way, candidates who have only taken the test questions that are accustomed to Chinese thinking, and who take IELTS or TOEFL for the first time, have many discomforts, and listening, speaking, reading and writing are all Western-style thinking patterns.

You have a large vocabulary, and you may not be able to get a high score if you have a good score in the written test.

3.Third, if you understand the difference between the two types of exams, if you want to take IELTS or TOEFL, you need to study it in a targeted manner.

First of all, you need to raise your vocabulary, find the corresponding vocabulary book for how many points you want to score, and break through the vocabulary barrier in the short term. Secondly, you should understand the question mode and test process of the international English test, do a few sets of real questions, go to the examination room for one actual battle, and come back to prepare for the battle. Whether it is IELTS or TOEFL, there is a fixed pattern for listening, speaking, reading and writing, and Chinese students are easy to improve their scores in listening and reading, while speaking and writing are weak points.

Finally, be sure to give yourself a high-intensity study plan, quantifying the score you want to get for each time period of each day.

No, you don't! The three tests of IELTS, TOEFL, and Level 4 and 6 do not affect each other, and the TOEFL IELTS test does not require those who have passed Level 4 or 6.

To figure this out, we first have to know what kind of IELTS and TOEFL exams are, the TOEFL test.

and IELTS is mainly an English proficiency test for groups studying abroad, and is tested in IELTS and TOEFL.

A high score can lead to qualifications and places for admission to other foreign universities. CET-4 is an examination of college students' English ability by domestic universities. It can be seen that IELTS TOEFL is the same as the four and six level exams.

The requirements and purposes are different, and the two are not directly related.

There are no restrictions on taking IELTS and TOEFL, as long as you have this idea and are prepared, no matter who takes the IELTS test, you can take it. A citizen's legal ID card is required.

Or go to the IELTS official website** with your passport to register, and select the test center and test date.

Although there is no direct relationship between IELTS and TOEFL and CET-4, if you have experience in CET-4, it will be easier to prepare for the IELTS test in terms of basics, familiarize yourself with the IELTS test mode and question types, and brush up on a large number of IELTS questions to improve your IELTS score. The higher the CET-4 score, the shorter the time it takes to prepare for the IELTS exam. Generally speaking, students with a score of 500 or above in CET-4 can take the IELTS test after about two months of preparation.

For details, you can see the following figure, the results of level 4 and 6 correspond to the table of IELTS and TOEFL scores. However, there is no need to pass level 4 or 6 before taking the IELTS and TOEFL test.

The difficulty of the IELTS and TOEFL test is a bit more difficult than that of CET-4 and CET-6.

First of all, the CET-6 test for college students is a relatively simple test in the university, and its difficulty is not even as difficult as the so-called college 4 and 8 exams in English majors, let alone TOEFL and IELTS. In other words, their difficulty is not a level, and there is no comparison between the two, if you want to take an example that can be compared, it is that one is the level of elementary school, the other is the level of high school, and there is a difference in the middle of the level of junior high school.

Level 4 is the English Proficiency Test for the College Entrance Examination. The difficulty is equivalent to that of Gaokao English, and the vocabulary required to pass the exam is around 4600. The difficulty ladder rises one level compared to Level 4, with a vocabulary of around 6000 examined; On the basis of the four and 4600 levels of vocabulary, the TOEFL needs to add 3000 core vocabulary words and 2000 background extension vocabulary, that is, the TOEFL vocabulary is 8000-12000 words.

Through a comparative analysis of the theoretical difficulty of the CET-4 and TOEFL, the first reason is that the difficulty of the test is different.

In terms of vocabulary, the vocabulary required for the fourth and sixth level exams is the least, and it has been accumulated many times when I memorized English in high school. But if you want to get a high score in the IELTS test, you must have 8000 words. In addition to vocabulary, the biggest difference between the Band 4 and Band 6 tests and the IELTS test is speaking.

Although the fourth and sixth level exams also have oral English, because there are no mandatory requirements, few people can take the oral test; However, IELTS speaking is a compulsory test and a common weakness of Chinese candidates. Therefore, the difficulty of the IELTS test is far more difficult than the level 4 and 6 tests!

Revision measures: Vocabulary: According to the European Language Framework standards, it is sufficient to memorize 5500-6000 words to IELTS.

Listening: Dictation! Dictation! Dictation!

Find listening materials to practice, and it is best to use the original IELTS listening questions directly, and dictate sentence by sentence.

Speaking: The most important thing in IELTS speaking is to prepare all the questions in the question bank of the season, so that each question has words to say, sentences to reply, no hard memorization, no template.

Writing: 1Accumulate footage. 2.Find someone to correct.

CET-4 and CET-6.

With IELTS TOEFL.

It belongs to different types of tests, IELTS and TOEFL are more focused on English proficiency tests, while level 4 and 6 are biased towards the test. So generally speaking, the difficulty of IELTS TOEFL is a bit higher than that of level 4 or 6.

1. Vocabulary requirements: The vocabulary requirements of level 4 and 6 are not high, especially level 4 is simpler, and basic high school English can be learned almost enough. The TOEFL reading vocabulary requirement is 8,000 to 10,000, and the IELTS vocabulary requirement is 6,000 to 8,000.

2. Test time, essay length and question volume: The test time for IELTS Reading and TOEFL Reading is 60 minutes. There may be an additional test for TOEFL reading, and the test time will be extended to 80 minutes.

1. IELTS listening is different from that of level 4 and 6 listening, and IELTS listening is more inclined to be able to be substituted synonymously. At the same time, the IELTS test points are very cunning, and if you are not careful, you will choose the wrong answer.

2. Compared with IELTS reading and level 4 and 6, the questions of IELTS reading are longer and there are more new words, so the questions are more difficult. The difficulty of IELTS reading is that you are required to find the answer in the corresponding passage. This requires us to have a pair of sharp eyes!

3. IELTS SpeakingMost students who apply for CET-4 and CET-6 basically don't want to take the speaking test. But IELTS speaking is a must-see. If you want to get a high score in IELTS speaking, you must have pure pronunciation, authentic expression, and rigorous arguments, and the examiner's score is basically strictly based on these points.

However, for the candidates, it is also necessary to practice day by day, and a lot of oral input is required in rigorous arguments and authentic expressions.

4. IELTS WritingIELTS writing is mainly a test of English ability, and every time you practice IELTS composition, it is not clear whether you have a great sense of achievement. But the domestic pressure is too serious, and 7 points seems to be an insurmountable gap! English is different from Chinese in that it requires great linguistic logic, and sentences before and after must be logically related.

If you want to get a high score in IELTS writing in a short period of time, it's not impossible, go and memorize the sample essays!
