语法
复习材料: OG + GWD
语法到最后是我的最强项。我曾经读完OG后做大全,但感觉效果不好,于是又重新回到OG。如果我告诉你我OG读了几遍,你一定不相信: 19遍。OG我从来没有离过手,在远行的日子里,OG也随着我四处漂泊。我曾经跟一个G友说: OG是我的初恋,我把他的缺点也爱了进去。在枯燥的,一遍又一遍的反复阅读过程中,你会爱上他, 也能领悟ETS的精意。我到最后看到任何一题都可以背出ETS的解释,从corrective到effective。做GWD,我语法几乎不错。考试时,每一道语法题我都能看见OG的影子,好象按照ETS的思路给考题提供标准答案。
平时复习SC的方法绝对不是考试时做题的方法。平时字斟句酌就是为了培养一种条件反射的能力,到考试时迅速排除。我模考做GWD语法的平均时间不会超过30秒一题。前10题里的语法我会故意放慢速度,逐一看过,但到后面,特别是20题以后,不会多于30秒。考试时候的方法就是前3词,尾3词,再中间。很多题目都可以靠这6个词解决,大概只要20秒,因为分别2/3split以后就只剩下一个了。 下面我举一个比较有代表性的例子:
