【真题回忆】 20191021 奥克兰大学 参考人:BetterPTE 90分教师Madeleine

考点:The University of Auckland ENGLISH LANGUAGE ACADEMY (ELA)

位置:67 SYMONDS STREET, 11TH FLOOR GRAFTON AUCKLAND 1010  NEW ZEALAND

考场一共12个座位,布局如下图,按照入场准备时拿到的号码牌,对号入座 。 我分到了10号位置 。

悲催的是我在试麦环节发现耳机有电流声,测试麦克风回放也有接触不良断断续续的声音。于是向上方的摄像头挥手召唤监考人员,希望能换耳机。但是监考员表示他们没有备用耳机,只能给我申请reschedule一次,这次我可以选择考完,也可以不考。

本着带点题给大家的目的,半聋状态完成了整场考试。

虽然耳机的问题会影响RS RL以及整个听力,导致我几乎没记住几句RS,但是由于听力机经的存在(比如WFD高频4题4中,命中率高达 100% ) ,并没有太影响这场考试其他题型的发挥。

考完后,考场给了一个case号,表示会联系我。

温馨提示:有问题及时联系监考员,维护自己的权利!

奥克兰大学10号考位耳机故障,请注意避雷。

=================== 干货的分割线 ===================

口语:机经作用不太大 命中率也一般,主要是技巧和方法掌握 会了之后什么题都OK。不会的话,请联系Madeleine老师。

【RA 】 只有一个机经
A national study into fraud by bookkeepers employed at small and medium-sized businesses has uncovered 65 instances of theft in more than five years, with more than $31 million stolen. Of the cases identified by the research, 56 involved women and nine instances involved men. However, male bookkeepers who defrauded their employer stole three times, on average, the amount that women stole.

【RS】基本失忆,考场不给我换耳机,心情沮丧。但我感觉长度呈递增趋势。

【DI】仍然是基础图,例如线图、饼图、柱图占主导,上过我课的都没问题呢。

【RL】耳机原因,断断续续,基本有图的我都当DI做了。
只记得一个高频:新媒体调查,大多数人从网上获取信息
New Media: Survey
What’s the most common way that you get information?
Internet: 62%

【ASQ 】

What do you call a piece of equipment we use to look at stars? – Telescope
What is the book with maps? – Atlas
What is the joint between your shoulder and your forearm? – Elbow.
How would you call people who study ancient bones, rocks and plants? -Archaeologist.

【SWT】
1 wine industry 记叙文,我当课例题讲的,5分钟搞定
2 US and Indian engineers 对比类的,不会的要挨打,5分钟搞定

【Essay】
The  world’s  governments  and  organizations  are  facing  a  lot  of  issues. Which  do  you  think  is  the  most  pressing  problem  for  the  inhabitants  on  our  planet  and  give  the  solution? (文康老师上次考试遇见)

虽然是开放型的,但只要选定一个常见话题,例如环境污染、气候变化、人口老龄化、生育率低下等等,可以随便写。套模板15分钟完事儿。

【FIB】 两类FIB是阅读的重点。我只看过高频,结果这次考试还是命中了一半,做完还剩5分钟。

【RO】 没刷机经,我是现场做的,回来发现全是机经。 如果刷了机经可以做到秒选。

1.
Early in 1938, Mário de Andrade, the municipal secretary of culture here, dispatched a four-member Folklore Research Mission to the northeastern hinterlands of Brazil on a similar mission.

His intention was to record as much music as possible as quickly as possible, before encroaching influences like radio and cinema began transforming the region’s distinctive culture.

They recorded whoever and whatever seemed to be interesting: piano carriers, cowboys, beggars, voodoo priests, quarry workers, fishermen, dance troupes and even children at play.

But the Brazilian mission’s collection ended up languishing in vaults here. 

解题思路逻辑总结:调查任务——任务目的——过程——结果,属于RO的基本套路。

2. Sea level raise 有变形,大体一致。

【SST】 3中3,熟悉机经,耳机有问题也能做。

1. 药物广告,高频原文、原音频。
关键词:
advertisement 注意拼写,不会可以缩写ads。
Tone 语气
Lifestyle 是一个词,不要分开。

2. 英国人权法案,高频原文,考场录音是男声。

关键词:
UK Human  Rights  Act   英国人权法案
European  Convention   欧洲人权公约
Second World War     二战
注意,涉及专有名词法案,首字母要大写。

3. 地球海洋环境,新题,无音频。时间很短大概40s,要赶紧记。

大意:人类活动破坏了海洋环境,举例子(fish pool 废话不用记 除非别的你听不到 尽量记关键词),我们需要重视并且采取措施恢复已造成的危害。

关键词:
Earth’s ocean environment  
potential solutions
Provoke the audience to think in a critical way
Restore the damage by human activities

【听力多选 】

(跟文康老师考到同一题额 哈哈哈 难得的缘分)

残疾人摩托车的同期声很大,而且是澳洲口音,但是不影响理解。听力多选其中残疾人摩托车那篇,选met an enthusiast 和 university project
https://thewest.com.au/news/wa/making-dreams-spring-to-life-ng-ya-380698
Darren Lomman 这人也有做过采访,上过TedX。

【听力FIB 】

That brings us to the CEO’s second duty: building everyone or more accurately, building the senior team. All the executives report to the CEO, so it’s the CEO’s job to hire fire, and manage the executive team. From coaching CEOs, I actually think this is the most important skill of all. Because when a CEO hires an excellent senior team, that team can keep the company running. when a CEO hire a poor senior team, the CEO is up spending all of their time trying to do with the team, and not nearly enough time trying to do with other elements of their job. The senior team can and often does develop the strategy for the company, but ultimately it’s always the CEO who has the final “go-no-go” decision on strategy.
没有太难的词

考场亲测:Tab键没有用,需要用鼠标点选每个空。

【WFD】 4中4 全是高频

1. Everyone must evacuate the premises during the fire drill.

2. Linguistics is the scientific study and analysis of language.

3.The  students  were  instructed  to  submit  their  assignments  before  Friday. 

4.Undergraduates may pursue their specific interests within certificated programs.

文末福利:

【总结】和文康老师10天前的考试体会一样,目前题库覆盖率已经很充分,没有很多的新题。建议各位考生抓紧时间,速速击破PTE。
