How do college students get the opportunity to study and learn English?Different colleges and majors had different requirements to obtain the opportunity to study a master's and a PhD. Taking the School of Mechanical Engineering as an example, the selection of 2024 master's and doctor's degree candidates required one of the following conditions: National University English Level 6 score of 425 or above; TOEFL score of 80 or above; IELTS score of 6.0 or above; Obtained a degree in an English-speaking country or region and obtained the degree certification provided by the Education Service Center of the Ministry of Education; The candidates who did not meet the above exemption conditions must participate in the written English test organized by the college and reach the passing score line.
For college students to improve their English, they could refer to the following methods:
1. ** Mental state **: Students with a weak foundation should first actively adjust their mental state and build confidence. They should recognize that a poor foundation is only a starting point. Don't be afraid of difficulties or self-denial because of a poor foundation. A positive attitude is the first step to success.
2. ** Study Plan **
- ** Study time planning **: CET-4 and CET-6 exams are usually held in June and December every year. Students with poor foundations need to start preparing for them a long time in advance. For example, freshmen or second-year students could start planning their studies one to one and a half years in advance. The study time was allocated to vocabulary accumulation, grammar review, listening practice, reading practice, writing and translation improvement. Two to three hours of study time was guaranteed every day. According to the course schedule, students could use their spare time, evening self-study time, or weekend time to study for Grade 4 and 6.
- ** Study in stages **
- ** Foundation stage (3 - 6 months)**: Focus on vocabulary and grammar. He started with basic vocabulary and gradually expanded his vocabulary. At the same time, he systematically reviewed English grammar knowledge, from basic tenses, parts of speech to complex clause structures.
- ** Strengthening phase (3 - 4 months)**: Special training for listening, reading, writing, and translation. Through doing real and mock questions, he could improve his ability in each subject and master the skills of solving problems.
- ** Sprint simulation stage (1 - 2 months before the exam)**: Carry out the simulation exam according to the exam time and requirements, adapt to the exam rhythm, and check for any gaps.
3. ** In terms of vocabulary accumulation **
- ** Choose a suitable vocabulary book **: Students with poor foundation can choose a vocabulary book with simple layout, detailed explanations, and example sentences. For example, a vocabulary book that is arranged according to the frequency of words. They can start learning from high-frequency words.
- ** Using mobile apps to assist learning **: For example, slashing words, memorizing words in ink, etc. These apps have a variety of memory methods, such as picture memory, mnemonic formulas, etc., which are convenient for learning anytime and anywhere.
- ** Various memorization methods **: In addition to traditional memorization, methods such as association memory, root and affixing memory, and vocabulary learning are integrated into the context. Words are memorized by reading simple English articles and sentences.
4. ** In terms of grammar learning **: Choose a basic grammar textbook and start learning from the most basic sentence structure. For example, first master the five basic sentence patterns of simple sentences (subject + verb, subject + verb + object, etc.), then gradually learn complex grammar structures such as compound sentences (nominal clauses, attributive clauses, adverbials clauses). During the learning process, do more grammar exercises to deepen your understanding and application of grammar rules through practice.
5. ** Listening training **
- ** Choose suitable listening materials **: Start choosing listening materials with slow speaking speed and simple content, such as the listening content of New Concept English Volume 1, Special English News, etc. As your listening ability improves, you will gradually transition to listening to real questions of CET-4 and CET-6, and English broadcasts with normal speaking speed (such as BBC and BBC's Special English programs).
- ** Practice listening carefully with the real listening questions of level 4 and level 6. First listen to the whole thing to understand the general content, then listen carefully sentence by sentence to hear every word and sentence structure clearly. If there was something he didn't understand, he had to repeat it a few times until he understood. Finally, he would listen to the entire content again to consolidate his understanding.
- ** Master Listening Skills **: Read through the questions and options in advance, predict the topic and general direction of the listening content, and learn to grasp the key words, such as transition words (but, however, etc.), causality words (because, so, etc.), and the content behind them is often the key.
6. ** Reading practice **
- ** Increase reading volume **: Start with simple English reading materials, such as simple English reading materials, English fairy tales, etc. As your reading ability improves, gradually read some articles that are equivalent to CET-4 and CET-6, such as English newspaper articles (21st Century English News, etc.) and magazine articles.
- ** Increase word guessing ability **: When reading, first guess the meaning of a new word based on the context. After reading, check the dictionary to confirm.
