Welcome to this New Oriental IELTS preparation course and the Listening Book in particular:
You may find that listening is one of the more difficult modules in IELTS because you have to listen, process the language, read the questions, and write the answers all the same time. You will practise a lot of these in this book.
This book is designed to help you to prepare for the test in a academic way. You will learn a lot of useful vocabulary, and you will learn how to predict and listen for different kinds of information.
A major challenge of the IELTS Writing test is being able to respond to Task 1 and Task 2 questions thoroughly and appropriately, demonstrating the ability of using a wide range of vocabulary and grammar structures with a high degree of accuracy – all within a strict one-hour time frame. This book will help you to achieve these goals.
The most up-to-date TOEFL test prep manual on the market, the fifteenth edition of Barron's TOEFL iBT is available in options that include a book with two MP3 CDs and CD ROM.
The manual presents:
A general overview of the TOEFL iBT
Seven model TOEFL iBT tests with answer explanations and sample writing and speakingresponses
A review of required academic skills, including note taking, paraphrasing, summarizing, and synthesizing
A review of language skills, including listening, speaking, reading, and writing in English
Welcome to this New Oriental IELTS preparation course and the Speaking Book in particular.
The Speaking test, although relatively short (11-14 minutes), is often the most nerve-wracking module in IELTS because you are face to face with the examiner. Not only that, but you have to listen, process the examiner’s language, and answer the question clearly, using correct grammar structures and with only a minimum of hesitation.
