TOEFL08年机经1
2008/1/13(2006 /10/21!!!!)(已詳細補全4部分及加試,申請加精)參見2006 年10 月21 機經,紅色部分是我補充的參考了Promethues的帖子閲讀(难)First stage 很籠統,沒看明白。
Second stage是通過traveller 1.讲的comparative education.发展三阶段.的discription來觀察其他國家的education system. 舉了某著名教育學家的例子,說他去了很多國家,然後回來寫了本什麽書,好像是criticize的;然後這本書被批駁,說過於limit (多選,問哪兩方面被批評是limit 的;答案所在的那個句子結構很複雜,我大概猜的,不誤導了,看有沒牛人補充一下) 。
後面一段說compare to 這個教育學家,另外一個(不記得名字了,姑且叫教育學家B)is XX. XX 是一個詞彙題,我不認得所以也沒記住,但根據意思選了個successful. 這個教育學家B怎麽怎麽的(沒考,就沒仔細讀),然後來了句Although他的書很systematic, 他還是被認爲是第一個descriptive的XX(考句子簡化,答案就是這個,原句有些彆扭,不太記得,反正有個although)。
再來第三階段以後的我就模糊了,因爲第一篇,感覺很難,又怕時間來不及~~~大概意思是一直講到現在的發展吧。
最後幾句是講現在的教育學家都focus on 什麽business learning啊之類的。
考作者是如何組織文章的。
最後summarise 的題不好做,選項極其迷惑。
可能因爲我沒讀好吧。
2.比较简单,背景也是旧托常考的关于火山的.讲的是关于火山爆发前的预测。
一開始說火山爆发analogue to weather forecast,問為什麽這樣說。
前兆主要有地震頻率加大,但是也有例外的,舉了個XX山的例子,名字忘了,它跟Hawaii某山在同一段裏面(考,問提到這兩個山為什麽);還有m物質在地層中上升,導致XX變熱。
2010年3月GMAT逻辑机经回忆
2010年3月GMAT逻辑机经回忆(一)GMAT资料下载的小编为大家整理了历年的机经回忆,希望可以帮助到大家更好的来备考GMAT考试,让我们一起来看看吧!1. 看电视的平均时间V1 from dandanhoo有说某个地区说这个地方平均每个家庭每天看电视的时间是几个小时来着(就算7吧。
)但是每个家庭都是多余两个人的,所以说人均电视时间是少于7的weaken:最后几道题就看到答案有一般大于两个人的家庭也有大于两个的电视,选这个了,2. 法律.对决.钱的关系V1 from dandanhoo说设立更多法律会让更少的人去公堂对决(我YY的)因为要花更多的钱。
答案忘了(我错了)3. 为啥我的销售增长没有改变你的销售量V1 from dandanhoo说CA的一个公司去年卖2000个东东,CU的公司只能卖1000个。
CU提高了技术(YY的),所以今年卖了2000了。
但是CA却没有减少,complete题选的是CU这个公司卖给了国外。
CA是卖国内。
V2 from x_fan两个公司,之前是A比B强,但是现在B发明了新东西,按理说应该能让B公司牛逼,可最后发现没有。
请解释。
V3 from 纹舞千瞳一个某国有两农场主卖马,A卖2000,B卖1000,B增加一倍,但是不影响A的销售,问为什么?我选的是市场方向不同那个~一个向国外市场一个向国内~考古:from 冷咖啡~V1 说是在个什么地方有两个公司都卖什么东西的 ( 偶竟然忘记了 .).. 说前一年 A 卖了 2000 个而 B 只卖了 1000. B 今年发明了新品种 , 是很有吸引力的 ( 我编的 .. 大概是个这意思 ). 但是结论说 B 今年在该地的销售不会上升 . 问为什么 ?( 我选的是因为新品种都是销往外地的 )这道题目的提干我好像见过 , 不知道是不是 GWD 上面的 . 因为我没怎么总结 . 所以不清楚 .V2 一个人说两个公司卖和马相关的产品, A 公司每年卖 20000 , B 不行,只卖 10000 。
2010托福考试北美机经之七
2010托福考试北美机经之七1、蝴蝶的颜⾊鲜艳,作为⼀种保护⾊。
因为鲜艳容易⼀开始被注意和捕⾷。
但正由于是这样,鸟也容易辨别。
发现不好吃了之后,就不吃了。
于是有⼈做实验,发现改变蝴蝶的翅膀,确实鸟就不认识了。
还有蝴蝶的幼⾍吃⼀种野草,⾥⾯有毒素。
幼⾍吸收了,变成蝴蝶,如果鸟吃了,就会呕吐。
2、地震波。
⼀种是p,⼀种是s。
p传播是直线,且穿过各种物质。
s⾛s路线,所以慢,液体和⽓体不穿过。
还有⼀种地⾯波,给地表造成巨⼤影响。
3、中产阶级和⾳乐的复兴。
主要讲由于经济的发展,中产阶级发展起来,先进的⾳乐创作⼯具产⽣。
城市⼈⼝的增长等,促进了对⾳乐的消费。
使得⾳乐在这⼀阶段得到了巨⼤的发展。
表现为⾳乐家可以过上上流⽣活,更多的⾳乐推向了⼤众。
4、讲鸟类的声⾳。
鸟类是如何学习声⾳,为什么同⼀族群的鸟的声⾳⼤致⼀样。
然后举了两种鸟的例⼦。
(阅读的时候,请区分是哪种鸟,最后⼀题。
我根本就来不及回原⽂找,瞎填)通过把幼鸟隔离等试验,发现鸟类出⽣后前三个⽉不发声,但是声⾳就是在这个时候听族群⾥⾯的声⾳,⽽学会的。
后来也很难再发展了。
还有⼀个试验,是把鸟隔离,还让它听不到⾃⼰的声⾳,最后这鸟只发出不连续的声⾳。
北美托福机经听⼒1、对话。
⼀个学⽣做presentation,⽤了幻灯⽚,提⾼了效率。
⽼师建议她多点总结和说明,以帮助⼤家理解。
她接受⽼师的建议,打算尽早写好。
其中讲到她的presentation是关于学⽣对打⼯的满意程度。
这⾥注意⼀点。
⼤三学⽣满意程度超过⼤四。
2、飞机动⼒学。
飞机本来要克服⼀个问题,叫做drag。
但是,通过研究蜻蜓,发现蜻蜓很好的利⽤了drag,所以有效的节约能源,可以⽴在半空中。
后来提到了蜜蜂,说蜜蜂的原理和直升飞机⽐较类似。
3、⼀个部落,⽤⽔⽜的⽪来记录⼀年的历史,举例上⾯画了⼀个流星,说明那时出现了流星。
这种⽜⽪很多,为什么呢?有3点。
我确定2点,1别⼈想收藏,所以他们copy.2是他们后来越记越多,⽜⽪太⼩,就换到⼤⽜⽪。

托福机经2010年11-12月机经汇总(钟会之和王京竹)
08.1.27北美08.9.5北美09.11.17北美08.2.2大陆08.3.15大陆08.4.27大陆08.5.17大陆09.5.31大陆大陆08.3.3008.9.6大陆08.9.28大陆08.12.13大陆09.2,22大陆2008 年4 月27 日第一篇生命起源也是生物学的文章。
关于巴斯德(曲颈瓶的发明者,反对生命自然发生说)以及米勒的实验(将碳氢化合物分子,如甲烷、氨和氢等与水混合,一起灌入到一个特殊的玻璃装置中,给瓶内混合物加热,使之不断沸腾,产生气体。
气体经过一个装有两个电极的小室,室内连续产生火花,犹如大自然的闪电和火山爆发,然后经过冷却又变成液体回到原处。
最后产生了组成现代生命的蛋白质结构中的几种氨基酸成分)。
文章首先说人们认为微生物是自然发生的,巴斯德却认为微生物本来就存在于空气中,像尘埃一样到处飘。
为了验证他的观点,就做了一个实验:把一锅汤煮沸然后密封,多天之后汤没有变质,说明没有产生微生物。
反对者又说必须要与大气接触才会有化学反应从而出现微生物,于是巴斯德设计了一种曲颈瓶,(这里有提到这个人的前老板,说给了一个crucial idea,问指什么,我选的是这个曲颈瓶,但是不确定是不是正确)瓶内的液体可以接触外界空气,但是空气中微生物无法进入瓶中。
巴斯特将汤盛入这种曲颈瓶中,多天以后,也没有变质,从而证明了他自己的观点。
(这里也有题,说第二次试验巴斯德用的是什么,我选择untreated air,仅供参考)尔后,文章又说,虽然巴斯德是正确的,但是地球起初并没有任何生命,所以肯定至少有一次,(这里也有题目,问什么忘记了,我选的是他的理论在逻辑上有问题,因为没有第一次产生空气中哪里漂浮微生物嘛)生命是自然发生的。
后面还有一题问地球初期与我们现在的有什么区别(我选的是好像是没那么多氧气,但此题毫无把握,完全靠猜)于是就说了米勒的那个实验。
证明了生命始有可能自然发生的。
最后一段讲米勒的这个实验要是没有发现xxx (具体不记得了),也就不会那么著名了,后面有题目考的1. 问问什么第一个科学家要进行那个初次试验。
2010年4月24日托福机经(大陆)
2010年4月24日托福机经(大陆)重复20081108北美阅读:1.人类捕猎到种植。
刚开始捕猎是可以获得足够的nuitrite,但是后来还是耕作了。
好像是因为耕作可以有更稳定的食物来源。
而且他们还迁移到了什么地方。
2.15-16世纪,欧洲的发展。
第一段先说了England的纺织业发展,葡萄牙的造船设计发展等等。
industry 转移到了城镇外面,因为cheap和regulate什么的。
火器的发展,还有印刷业的传播发展。
3.fragment对于 tropical forest的影响。
因为人口数量增多,需要耕地,所以在amazon 那里,破坏出一片林地来耕作。
对此影响到了里面的生物。
有说一些人类建筑比如一条路也会frag开,导致动物无法通过。
而植物的seed需要通过动物进行传播,所以一个fragment 里面的动物会慢慢die out。
阅读加试:1.telegraph在美国和欧洲的发展问题。
2.探究鸟的鸣叫声是怎么产生的,与哪些因素有关。
听力:1.(比较晕的对话,还出现一个类似lecture里面黑板上的名词)讲的好像是一个女生有一个project,但是由于学校的什么miner work(这里考到重听题),教授说什么。
不太确定2.人类活动对动物的影响。
以澳大利亚为例,有3点,第1点说的好像是人类还没有到达澳大利亚之前,那里已经出现大规模的extinct。
第2点提到猛犸象,说的是人类的捕猎技术,过度捕猎导致动物extinct。
第3点说大火灾导致植物死亡,使动物失去食物,导致extinct。
其中谈到两种鸟,一种现在还存在,另外一种已经extinct。
3.讲审美观点是的形成。
首先说是有两幅画,先让人们看其中一幅,然后砸再同时看两幅,结果人们更喜欢先前看到的那幅。
因为familiar。
然后又说与大脑里面的left和right brain 的关系。
后面那个我听的不是很清楚。
4.男学生是从其他学校转来的。
他原来在那个学校里学history,现在到了这个学校学political science。

新托福阅读2010年10月9日考题回顾
新托福阅读2010年10月9日考题回顾考试日期2010.10.09Passage 1Title:工业革命时期科学家的理论与发明家发明创造间的关系大致内容讲工业革命时期science theory和practical innovation的关系。
是四段式。
大意是说很多发明家都是没受过什么高等教育的人,有一个长期的误解是说这些人的发明得益于科学家theory的指导。
后来发现并不是这样,比如Watt的发明在广泛普及了很久以后,对于其原理的研究才有人写出来。
而且很多证据表明,一般都是发明出现后,才有systematical method to analyze them。
又说当然科学也不是完全没有作用,在那个时代也起到一定的积极作用(有题)。
最后说一些发明家,比如Watt及其他几个发明家,虽然也进了皇家学会,但是都是在发明之后的事了。
Passage 2Title:美国电影发展大致内容在美国,1950之前电影是给全家观赏的,1950之后开始给特定的观众群制作电影(有题)。
Disney针对儿童制作动画片,成本低,利润高,很profitable。
后来发现了teenager市场,于是讲怎么开拓这个市场,针对年轻人制作科幻片science fiction等。
然后讲从一些欧洲国家进口电影增多,以在art house播放的形式吸引了受过高等教育的人educated people。
最后说英国电影在美国很受欢迎,法国电影也不错。
Passage 3Title:海洋动物进化大致内容开头讲因为地球生命起源于海洋,所以现在很多marine animal基本还是保持了一些适应海洋的特征,比如说血液里的盐度和海水盐度基本一致,所以就不需要water move inside body,也不会脱水dehydrate。
然后讲动物的进化evolution:1. 海洋动物要去淡水fresh water环境生活需要的进化:皮下长一层XX组织,这个组织可以克服“吸水过程”;淡水鱼由于是从海洋迁徙过来,其血液中盐分浓度虽然经过很长时间进化有所下降,但还是比淡水盐分浓度高些。

hrzgrn2010年2月7日托福考试详细机经
-+懒惰是很奇怪的东西,它使你以为那是安逸,是休息,是福气;但实际上它所给你的是无聊,是倦怠,是消沉;它剥夺你对前途的希望,割断你和别人之间的友情,使你心胸日渐狭窄,对人生也越来越怀疑。
—罗兰2010年2月7日托福考试详细机经刚刚看到有同学已经把重复情况写出来了,我就补充一下细节吧。
阅读我个人感觉很难,第一篇讲portrait艺术的,不知道是不是新题,重点就是说肖像画艺术在哪些方面不同于其他艺术形式,三段里面前两段巨长,第一段说肖像会随social convention发生改变;第二段说肖像画的画法和对象与其他艺术形式不同,一般是要求对象坐在那给他画,即时因为某些原因不能当面(重要的人或是太忙),那也要依据照片或是草图画;第三段说什么由于主流的专业画家(米开朗琪罗)认为portrait太没有技术含量,只是机械劳动,所以portrait的地位不高,但是他们还是自己会练习这种画法,举了Picasso 的例子。
第二篇或第三篇(顺序忘了,有一篇还彻底忘了)讲一个什么古城的建筑的。
第一部分说这个建筑里有各种各样的匠工,加工贵重金属的,做陶瓷的,织布的等等,纠结了一下说他们做好的东西都要严格审查啊什么的;第二部分说这个建筑到底是归为palace还是temple,单独说哪个都不合适,最后的结论居然发明出新的术语,palace-temple or temple-palace,这一部分纯属扯淡。
最后说了一下由于不清楚那个古国是君权还是神权,或者是两者都有,所以不清楚function。
最后一篇是关于啥的忘了,看了别人的机经可能会提示一下,应该能想起来。
来源:考试大听力比较简单,都能听懂,就是问题问的比较极品,让你第一眼不知道选啥。
我唯一记得是是一篇geology,讲washington state那边有个特殊的地形,一个叫berz的人提出既不是河流长时间冲刷出来的也是冰川消退形成的,而是在几个小时内被大量的水给冲出来的,在那个地形东边后来有个人,名字忘了,发现了有大湖的证据,最后一整合就成了那个大湖由于拦住水的ice dam垮了,水就给冲出这个地形了。
2008年3月美国托福英语考试(TOEFL)阅读真题精选
2008年3月美国托福英语考试(TOEFL)阅读真题精选(总分:106.00,做题时间:150分钟)一、READING(总题数:5,分数:106.00)The Origin of the Pecific Island PeopleThe greater Pacific region, traditionally called Oceania, consists of three cultural areas: Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia. Melanesia, in the southwest Pacific, contains the large islands of New Guinea, the Solomons, Vanuatu, and New Caledonia. Micronesia, the area north of Melanesia, consists primarily of small scattered islands. Polynesia is the central Pacific area in the great triangle defined by Hawaii, Easter Island, and New Zealand. Before the arrival of Europeans, the islands in the two largest cultural areas, Polynesia and Micronesia, together contained a population estimated at 700,000.Speculation on the origin of these Pacific islanders began as soon as outsiders encountered them, in the absence of solid linguistic, archaeological, and biological data, many fanciful and mutually exclusive theories were devised. Pacific islanders are variously thought to have come from North America, South America, Egypt, Israel, and India, as well as Southeast Asia. Many older theories implicitly deprecated the navigational abilities and overall cultural creativity of the Pacific islanders. For example, British anthropologists G. Elliot Smith and W. J. Perry assumed that only Egyptians would have been skilled enough to navigate and colonize the Pacific. They inferred that the Egyptians even crossed the Pacific to found the great civilizations of the New World (North and South America). In 1947 Norwegian adventurer Thor Heyerdahl drifted on a balsa-log raft westward with the winds and currents across the Pacific from South America to prove his theory that Pacific islanders were Native Americans (also called American Indians). Later Heyerdahl suggested that the Pacific was peopled by three migrations: by Native Americans from the Pacific Northwest of North America drifting to Hawaii, by Peruvians drifting to Easter Island, and by Melanesians. In 1969 he crossed the Atlantic in an Egyptian style reed boat to prove Egyptian influences in the Americas. Contrary to these theorists, the overwhelming evidence of physical anthropology, linguistics, and archaeology shows that the Pacific islanders came from Southeast Asia and were skilled enough as navigators to sail against the prevailing winds and curre.The basic cultural requirements for the successful colonization of the Pacific islands include the appropriate boat-building, sailing, and navigation skills to get to the islands in the first place, domesticated plants and gardening skills suited to often marginal conditions, and a varied inventory of fishing implements and techniques. It is now generally believed that these prerequisites originated with peoples speaking Austronesian languages (a group of several hundred related languages) and began to emerge in Southeast Asia by about 5000 B. C.E. The culture of that time, based on archaeology and linguistic reconstruction, is assumed to have had a broad inventory of cultivated plants including taro, yarns, banana, sugarcane, breadfruit, coconut, sago, and rice. Just as important, the culture also possessed the basic foundation for an effective maritime adaptation, including outrigger canoes and a variety of fishing techniques that could be effective for overseas voyaging.Detailed studies of the winds and currents using computer simulations suggest that drifting canoes would have been a most unlikely means of colonizing the Pacific. These expeditions were likely driven by population growth and political dynamics on the home islands, as well as the challenge and excitement of exploring unknown waters. Because all Polynesians, Micronesians, and many Melanesians speak Austronesian languages and grow crops derived from Southeast Asia, all these peoples most certainly derived from that region and not the New World or elsewhere. The undisputed pre-Columbian presence in Oceania of the sweet potato, which is a New World domesticate, has sometimes been used to support Heyerdahl’s “American Indians in the Pacific” theories. However, this is one plant out of a long list of Southeast Asian domesticates. As Patrick Kirch, an American anthropologist, points out, rather than being brought by rafting South Americans, sweet potatoes might just have easily been brought back by returning Polynesian navigators who could have reached the west coast of South America.(分数:12)(1).According to Paragraph1, all of the following are true statements about Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia EXCEPT(分数:1)A.Collectively, these regions are traditionally known as Oceania.B.These islands of Micronesia are small and spread outC.Hawaii, Easter Island, and New Zealand mark the boundaries of Polynesia.D.Melanesia is situated to the north of Micronesia. √解析:参考译文:太平洋群岛居民的起源广义的太平洋地区,传统上被称作大洋洲,由三块文化区域组成:美拉尼西亚,密克罗尼西亚和玻利尼西亚。

本次写作考试点评: 2010.03.06新托福写作重复2008年3月1日北美小作文条理较清晰话题也不难懂,但还是需加强听力、阅读的练习和改写概括的能力。
大作文是关于社会类的话题,论据扩展有些难度,老师在平时课堂上需带领学生多做brainstorming 的工作。
年月日大陆托福机经回忆
2011年11月05日大陆托福机经回忆11/05 北美详细机经攒RP发机经,攒RP。
在北美某小地方考的。
吃了晚饭再回忆,有点忘记了。
先说口语吧,TASK1说学校现在禁止学生带手提电脑进教室。
你赞同还是反对,分别说出ADV ANTAGEAND DISADV ANTAGE,也就是正反都要说。
TASK2说有的人喜欢搬来搬去,有的人喜欢医生呆一个地方。
然后问你觉得怎样好,理由。
TASK3 学校报纸上有个PROPOSAL说宿舍的电视节目里加入国际频道。
第一个好处是可以帮助大家学习外语,第二个好处是可以让国际学生接触到自己看到自己国家的电视节目。
对话里面,一个小姑娘觉得这个PROPOSAL特别好。
然后分别举自身例子证明这两个理由。
小姑娘在学西班牙语,然后发现看这个国际频道可以帮助她提升西班牙语水平,加大词汇量。
另外,小姑娘去年去西班牙学习了。
当时在那的美国学生都想看在美国发生了点什么。
所以可以理解国际学生有这个需求。
TASK4 先看一个关于CIRCADIUMRYTHEM的介绍。
有两个要点。
一个是没人都会有自己的ALERTTIME 和TIREDTIME。
第二个要点就是这个RYTHEM随着时间推移可能会改变。
那个LECTURE里面教授就举了2个例子。
首先说在大学的时候他习惯晚上学习,因为那个时候他精神好,效率高,睡的比别人都晚。
早上就会特别困,起不来,所以他从来不选早上的课。
第二个例子说他做了年纪大了做了教授发现,早上效率比较高,晚上就各种累。
所以现在他的习惯颠倒了。
早上看看书,备课,晚上就早早睡觉了。
TASK5里面有个女的在一个陶艺课上做了个花瓶,然后下周就是她老妈生日,她想把这个花瓶作为生日礼物。
但是碰到问题,由于花瓶易碎,所以寄过去的话要找专门的公司,那个比较贵,虽然包装的很好。
另外一种选择就是她自己开车去当面给她妈。
那样就花点时间,几个小时的车程。
但是最近正好是期中考试那女的比较忙。
TASK6 教授讲了RISKOF PRICE DISCOUNTING。

本次写作考试点评: 综合写作较简单,关于古文明的兴亡。
考题重复北美08年3月1日考题,只是在反驳理由上略有不同;独立写作重复北美09年1月10日考题,属于常规生活类话题,较简单,选择一方面进行单边的论述,难度不大。
