Speaking 口語
Keep the length of your answers relevant. If you decide to keep on speaking until the examiner stops you, that will be wrong as the examiner may never stop you and you may start losing focus.
確保你答案的長度貼題幔摸。如果你決定一直回答直到面試官打斷你才停下，那有可能你的策略是錯誤的颤练。有可能面試官永遠不會打斷你既忆，而你的答案則會漸漸開始離題。
Don’t learn answers ‘by heart’ and practice them. This process will make you more nervous, and the chances are you will not asked the exact same question you prepared for.
不要“用心識記”答案并練習。這個過程將會使你更加緊張患雇，而你并沒有太大的可能性遇上你正好準備的問題跃脊。
Listen to the question carefully and then answer it. If you need any clarification, ask before answering so that your answer is relevant.
聽清楚問題再回答。如果你有進一步的疑問苛吱，問清楚之后再回答酪术，確保你的答案與問題相關(guān)。

關(guān)注整個問題援所，不要只是在其中尋找關(guān)鍵詞庐舟。兩個問題可能包含同一個關(guān)鍵詞，也可能完全不同住拭。 關(guān)鍵詞只是告訴你問題的背景挪略，而不是答案。
Don’t write down everything as you are listening. If you are busy writing, then you are not listening.

仔細觀察完整的問題并仔細聆聽谱煤。你將被要求在同一時間讀墨辛、寫和思考，但大部分時間需要花費在聽力上趴俘。
Reading 閱讀
Don’t divide total time by the number of questions. You get 60 minutes to answer 40 questions, so that gives you one and half minutes on each question. This process is wrong as there are different strategies that you need to consider. The initial few questions will take longer because you still have to figure out how the text is organized. You can decide to give a bit more time to the more hard passage, and a bit less to the easier one.
不要把總時間除以問題的數(shù)量，不要想著你有60分鐘的時間來回答40個問題奏赘，所以每個問題你留出一分半的時間——這是錯誤的寥闪，因為你需要考慮不同的策略。最初的幾個問題將需要更長的時間磨淌，因為你仍然需要弄清文章的組織方式疲憋。你可以給難度稍大的文章更多的時間，難度較小的時間則可以讀得快一些梁只。
It is not necessary to first read the question and then read the passage to figure out where the answer is. It might work for some people, and may not for others.

First try both approaches and see which one works better for you as there is no right or wrong approach.
不一定非要先閱讀問題缚柳，再閱讀文章來找答案。這對某些人來說可能有效搪锣，對另外的人則可能不適合秋忙。你可以快速閱讀文章以了解大意。這樣你就能夠知道大概在文章的哪個部分能找到答案构舟，從而節(jié)約時間灰追。先嘗試這兩種方法，看看哪一種對你更好，因為沒有絕對的對錯弹澎。
Writing 寫作
Leave as much time as possible for planning out the written answers. If you know what you want to say, you will write quicker and more precisely. First take two minutes to organize your thoughts and then start writing.
留出盡可能多的時間來規(guī)劃你的作文朴下。如果你知道你想說什么，你會寫得更快更準確苦蒿。 首先用兩分鐘的時間來組織你的想法殴胧，然后開始寫作。
Save five minutes for the end to read your answer again. This is done to make sure there aren’t any repeated words. This is called repetition in language, and is a fatal error in any language exam. Make sure to double-check your answer.
預留出五分鐘在最后再次閱讀你的答案佩迟，確保沒有任何重復的語言团滥。語言重復是所有語言考試的致命錯誤。 確保仔細檢查你的答案音五。
