    I recommend a few good books for you to read.

    Wang Yumei's "TOEFL Vocabulary" (2005 edition), plus the computer software "New Oriental Back Words 4". The vocabulary of the new TOEFL is indeed larger than that of the old TOEFL, so it is recommended to prepare Wang Yumei's vocabulary book (with a large vocabulary and more than 5,000 words). Moreover, the TOEFL thesaurus in "New Oriental Memorized Words 4" is the closest to Wang Yumei's vocabulary, which is also in the early 5000s.

    It is recommended to memorize the vocabulary book at the beginning, and after memorizing for 2 weeks to 1 month, start to review the memorized words with "New Oriental Memorized Words". Books are more suitable for the first memory of words, and software is more suitable for screening out words that are difficult to memorize for reinforcement memory (using the word test function of the software to filter out difficult words). If you follow the progress of memorizing a new list every day, you can finish the first article in 40 days.

    But be careful not to relax the review of old words, consolidating old words is no less important than memorizing new words). Of course, there are also vocabulary books by Zhang Hongyan, Yu Minhong, and Li Xiaolai, which are also more popular. If you already have or are memorizing those three books on hand, it is not a big problem, but it will be less than the TOEFL thesaurus of "New Oriental Memorizing Words 4".

    The basic amount of words is needed, but when you accumulate a certain amount of words, memorizing words is not very useful. The SAT and TOEFL writing have something in common, but not in terms of word volume and difficulty. The ultimate goal of writing is to see whether your thinking is clear, whether your analysis of problems is in place, and whether you use language fluently and accurately.

    These are not things that can be solved by memorizing words. Generally, after graduating from university, your English vocabulary is about 8000 to 10 million, and the next step should be to focus on reading articles, and learn how others use these 100000 words in reading. SAT and TOEFL writing, no matter how gorgeous the rhetoric is, if you can't grasp the key points and can't say the sore spots, you will get a low score.

    Hope it helps.

    If you don't have a particularly good vocabulary book, you can memorize the vocabulary well and have good skills, and if you can't remember it yourself, no matter how good the vocabulary book is, it's useless. To take the SAT and TOEFL, of course, it is better to have a larger vocabulary, but a large vocabulary does not necessarily mean that you can do the right questions. The English test is a unified quality of listening, vocabulary, writing, speaking, etc.

    After taking the SAT, you have a certain level of writing and reading, so it doesn't necessarily mean that the TOEFL is fine, the two of them are not the same test, otherwise they will be directly combined. If you are planning to take the test, you can first go to some institutions to learn about the test trends and standards, Changchun Global IELTS pays close attention to this trend. Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can we be sure that we can be sure of passing the SAT and TOEFL, rather than blindly guessing by ourselves, and the English test is more important and rational.

    Good luck with your exams.

    This statement actually makes no sense SAT is much more difficult than TOEFL and has a lot more vocabulary But the writing and reading of the two exams are different So it can't be compared to the vocabulary book, the best SAT is, of course, Barang 3500 is in Barang's big book, but this 3500 is already streamlined, if you have enough time, can you memorize the Monkey Brother Blue Book, TOEFL I recommend Wang Yumei's, there are words frequent.

    The SAT is harder than the TOEFL, so if you do well on the SAT, the TOEFL is nothing to you.

    Barron3200 is good, it includes the words that are difficult and appear frequently on the SAT.

    You don't want to memorize everything, these words are difficult, the most afraid of lack of perseverance, often memorize a few lessons and never want to memorize again, if you memorize this book well, it is already quite good, and the reading score will improve accordingly.

    However, SAT writing doesn't require you to use so many big words, just like we never use classical Chinese in our writing. As for some questions in SAT reading, even if you understand it, you may not be able to answer it correctly, and vocabulary is not the only element.

    The entrustment is simple in writing and reading, but listening and speaking still depend on yourself, learning the SAT does not mean that you pass the oral test, you must force yourself to practice more, pinch the time to practice.
