Many students may have such questions. Why can't they understand after watching a lot of English movies? At this point, what the IELTS training teacher wants to ask you is, have you really worked hard to improve your English listening? ? To improve IELTS listening, it is not feasible to rely solely on movies and TV. It requires students' high-intensity practice and perseverance. Step 1: Fill in the blanks. When practicing listening, students must not rush for success, but step by step. At first, students can choose the same fill-in-the-blank questions as the listening text to practice. This kind of listening practice is relatively simple, mainly to train students' ability to distinguish sounds and spell words. If there are many problems in listening practice at this stage, students should pay attention to the pronunciation and spelling of vocabulary. After this stage of practice, students can choose to fill in the blanks that are not completely consistent with the listening text. At this point, filling in the blanks is the summary and interpretation of the listening text. This stage of practice not only trains students' ability to accurately hear and spell words or phrases, but also trains students' ability to capture effective information, quickly grasp the main idea of recording and mine keywords. Step 2: Dictation Training The second step of intensive listening training is dictation. What does dictation mean? In fact, it is to dictate what we hear word for word. At the beginning of practicing dictation, students can use the dictation questions of Band 4 as listening materials. After the ability of dictation is cultivated to a certain extent, students can slowly get rid of the listening materials of major four and start training the original dictation? Real English? , such as CNN, BBC, NPR and other English news recordings. Students can choose a one-and-a-half to three-minute news recording every day for dictation practice, and do the following in the dictation process: ① Try to write every word in the recording and guess the words they don't understand according to the spelling rules of English words; ② Try to write every punctuation mark to test whether the meaning group division is accurate; ③ Summarize the recorded contents after dictation. For places where you can't dictate, you can guess the information reasonably according to what you hear and complete the news content. After knowing how to dictate, students need to be prepared for long-term persistence. Doing one thing repeatedly and forming a habit will promote progress. I have a deep understanding of this. When I first started dictation practice myself, I found it much more difficult than I thought, and it took a long time to implement. The recording material I chose at first was only one or two minutes, but it took nearly an hour to dictation comprehensively and I had to listen to it dozens of times. However, because everyone's English level is different, students don't have to follow this article step by step. They can choose their own training methods according to their own situation and use their favorite materials for training. I believe that as long as students persist in training, they will certainly achieve excellent IELTS listening results. Where can I get IELTS training in Shanghai? Global ivy is a good choice.
