The correct way to dictate TOEFL, whether to practice dictation in TOEFL listening

There are very detailed dictation methods for ponies crossing the river, you can check it out. If you want to take the TOEFL, you can't know this**. If you have any questions, you can communicate together, and I am also preparing for TOEFL.

The following is a post by Pony Crossing the River**.

Dictation method: 1) Listen to one sentence - write (if you can't write it, listen again, up to 3-5 times).

3) Listen to the second sentence (repeat the first sentence process).

4) Listen to the last sentence.

2) When comparing the text answers, find out the areas that are not recognized or are incorrect, and mark them.

4) Dictation is to listen sentence by sentence, and for short sentences, you can combine two or three sentences, and everyone can grasp it by themselves.

5) It's best to give yourself only three chances to train your auditory storage.

7) More effective dictation is not recommended to have to dictate each article and then compare the text answers, so that for very long articles, the auditory blur or unrecognized misidentification of the wrong place has been blurred, so you can't get your weakness from dictation more effectively

8) I will cut the length of the article, cut the text answer into small parts to fit each dictation, and complete everyone's dictation in the order of follow-up. For example: dictate the first floor first; then the second floor; ......And so on.

Everyone knows the method, but the question is whether it can be done and whether it can be put into action. When I dictated back then, I listened to one side first, and then dictated. Remember to dictate all the words, and then compare them with the original text, word by word, to find out your listening blind spots.

Then listen to it, and listen to the blind spot a few more times.

Dictation of this thing, quality is not quantity, to do one, you have to go through one. As for what the schedule is, only you can arrange it, only you know best, and my advice is to get it through every day

From the basics.

In fact, before preparing for the TOEFL test, you should first test your level with half a set of listening questions to understand your listening foundation before deciding whether to practice dictation. For the vast majority of college students, high school students and even junior high school students who can barely pass the fourth grade, dictation training is a must. The listening part of the TOEFL test is higher than the difficulty of today's life, and in daily life, as long as you understand the general idea, but in the TOEFL test, the main thing to examine is the details, so from the perspective of listening foundation, people with poor basic level must do dictation practice, and those with a solid English level can not do dictation practice.

From the voice side.

In TOEFL listening, pronunciation questions directly determine whether the listening can be understood or not. TOEFL listening pronunciation includes not only the pronunciation of words, but also listening speed problems, continuous reading problems, missing explosion problems, skimming weak reading problems, British and American pronunciation differences, and part-of-speech diacritics. These questions can all affect the TOEFL listening score.

If you encounter these problems in the process of preparing for the test, you need to use TOEFL listening dictation to practice listening and strengthen your phonics knowledge. If there are no pronunciation problems, you can skip dictation and proceed to the next step of intensive training.

Judging by the speed of reaction.

In fact, many people have encountered hearing "distraction". Actually, it's not that we don't understand, but that we don't react fast enough at all, and that's the core problem! Dictation is the only way to improve the speed of listening response, so as long as you are distracted by the speed of reaction, you need to practice dictation.

If you have a fast listening response speed, you can skip dictation practice.

Judging by the length of preparation time.

If the preparation time is more than 3 months, it is recommended that students use the dictation method to practice the new TOEFL listening test, because dictation is a relatively long-term task, and it is an optional method for students who have been preparing for the test for a long time. Long-term practice of dictation is the most effective way to improve your TOEFL listening skills. If the preparation time is relatively short, 1-2 months, it is recommended that students use intensive listening to replace dictation to save preparation time.

First of all, the listening test is 29+, and it is definitely not possible to get the TPO brush, I have seen that I have not brushed the questions with high scores, and I have also seen that I have participated in many exams, and the listening scores cannot escape the 22-point curse. What's the problem?

What will the master do?

Masters regard TOEFL as ability training, constantly refreshing their abilities, and taking the TOEFL test is just to test whether their ability has passed. Therefore, TOEFL preparation should focus on ability training, supplemented by brushing questions, and ability training first, brushing questions later. When you have the ability, no matter what the subject, what the speed of speech, or what the surrounding environment is, in fact, you can understand, and if you understand, you will do the questions, and you will be full of confidence.

So how do you develop your ability to listen to TOEFL?

The first is the selection of materials! The TOEFL listening speed is medium to high, and most of the topics are social sciences, such as biology, physics, history, humanities, etc. Then the materials for usual practice should be related to this, one to practice ability, and then to accumulate relevant background, killing two birds with one stone.

I recommend you to do SSS science for 60 seconds, each audio is about 1 minute, the speed and difficulty of speech is higher than TOEFL, you can understand SSS, TOEFL is pediatric.

The following is a screenshot of the SSS transcription I made in English transcription software, about Roman Greek culture. To do dictation, I recommend that you use dictation software to do it on your computer, so that you can not only practice listening, but also practice spelling and typing speed, which paves the way for writing. Just keep listening, listen carefully, and after listening to the TOEFL for a long time, you will naturally feel that the speed of speech is a little slow, and you can hold it.

I agree with the statement on the first floor, TOEFL listening is very different from the domestic one, and it will not test your detailed days of the week, numbers, etc., but ask you to understand the general meaning of the listening passage to see if you understand what the person is talking about.

Therefore, it can objectively reflect your ability to listen to the English language, and on the other hand, you don't need to prepare for TOEFL listening with a strong purpose like preparing for the fourth or sixth level of the college entrance examination, and you should take the initiative to listen more step by step. Seeing that you are still asking about the recommendation of open classes, it means that there is still a long time to prepare, so I don't recommend you to take open classes. Because it is more difficult and there are many professional vocabulary, since you have time, you should try to make yourself like the English language, like listening, and be willing to listen to English, so that although there is no effect in the short term, but in the long run, the effect is the best.

In the future, when listening to songs, try more English songs, watch more American dramas when watching dramas, and then slowly make sure that you can understand the subtitles on the screen, so that after you have a better listening level, you can focus on practicing the professional listening of the TOEFL test. If you have a weak listening foundation at the beginning, starting with a difficult one, not only will it have no good effect, but it will also hit your self-confidence, and once you hate listening in English from the bottom of your heart, then even if you have taken the TOEFL, it will be very bad for you to go abroad in the future.

As for the specific answering skills, this is a matter of opinion, some students went to New Oriental and said that the TOEFL listening teacher said to take notes, but I didn't do it when I practiced it myself, and I didn't do it when I took the test, and there were 27In short, what he examines is your level, those patterned things, the so-called skills or something, don't pay too much attention to it, just try to make yourself like the English language, and then you will naturally take the initiative to apply more, and the level of more application will naturally improve, and the level will improve, and the TOEFL will naturally show up.

First, dictation.

The specific implementation method: listen to a sentence, pause, and then write a sentence, dictate the whole article; After writing it down for the first time, take the red pen to revise it for the second time, which may be misheard, missed, or misheard; Understand your weaknesses according to the reasons and improve them in a targeted manner.

Second, follow the reading.

The specific implementation method: listen to a sentence, pause, and then read a sentence (note that you can't read the text), and record your own pronunciation, then listen to the recording to compare the pronunciation, find out your own pronunciation mistakes, and self-correct. For example, some are because they don't know the words, some are pronunciation problems, and some don't understand the sentence patterns, so they should read more of these sentences, so that they can understand these words and sentence patterns next time, and there are no more doubts.

1. Listening is a kind of listening training on the basis of certain English grammar and vocabulary, vocabulary is the basis of the TOEFL test, familiar with the commonly used 500 academic vocabulary, at least to ensure that the basic understanding of the questions;

2. To accumulate a little vocabulary of professional topics, you must first memorize the basic academic vocabulary, be sure to respond to the meaning of the words while hearing the words, pay attention to the TOEFL listening test not to test the spelling of words, and memorize the academic vocabulary;

3. Listen to the questions or follow the practice paragraphs, without interruption, listen to the key words with notes, pause and listen carefully one by one, and collect professional theme vocabulary while practicing.

You must work your own, listen more and practice more, and if you practice more, you will naturally improve New Oriental TOEFL is good.

You mean listening, listening. Let's use the material of New Concept 3, listen to each word clearly, break a sentence, and listen to each article 5 or 6 times.

Hujiang English has a dictation, you can try it.
