短期内如何快速通过专八？？
由于疫情的原因，今年的专八较往年晚了一个月
我大概是在三月初开始备考的，备考的时间大约一个半月
在备考之前，我翻阅了很多经验贴
在我看来，专八是一门应试性极强的考试
结合前人的经验以及自己备考过程中所领悟到的方法
接下来，我会分享一下每个模块的解题技巧
专八题型
从分值分布来看，听力和阅读的比重较大。一般来说，听力和阅读也是短期最好提分，提分最快的两部分。因此，在备考过程中，要格外重视这两块内容的练习。友情提醒：平时练习请严格按照专八的考试流程，包括开考和结束时间，每个模块的用时等等。
听力篇
听力分为Mini-lecture 和Interview/ Conversation。
MINI-LECTURE是由一个约900个单词的讲座和一项填空任务组成。要求考生先边听边做笔记，然后完成填空任务。共15题。
《英语专业八级考试大纲》要求考生能够听懂有关政治、经济、历史、文化、教育、语言文学、科普方面的演讲。由于讲座一般为独白或演讲，因而句式具有口语化的特点，语速为每分钟约150个单词。
Mini-lecture部分与专四的考法类似，但稍微难了些，具体表现在有些空需要自己概括而不是听到什么些什么。
讲座的文章通常采用“总-分-总”的结构，中心突出，层次分明。Mini-lecture考验最多的就是捕捉信息的能力，在听力过程中要留心一些信号词。在讲座听力中要注意哪些信号词呢，请参考专八听力|留心这些信号词， Mini Lecture对12个以上不是梦！
除了考验提取信息的能力之外，好考验我们速记的能力。在平时的练习中要刻意地用一些符号来代替英文，或者记下单词的几个辅音缩写。如：
<——less than
>——more than
=——be equal to
max——maximum
intro——introduction
prob——problem
值得注意的是考试不必按照常见的速记方法，而是采用适合自己速记法。一般每个人的速记笔记只有他自己看得懂，因此，只要运用自己看得懂的符号都是可以的。
Mini-lecture的评分相对来说比较仁慈，少些，单复数，时态不一致可能会得半分，所以在考场上，勇敢写下去就对了，不要怀疑自己，更不要放弃。
INTERVIEW/CONVERSATION是由一个约1000词的访谈／对话组成，共10道选择题，分两部分完成。每道题目后有10秒钟的答题时间。
《英语专业八级考试大纲》要求考生能听懂真实交际场合中的各种英语会话和讲话。语速为每分钟约150个单词。
访谈或者对话部分内容连贯，选项通常会遵循原文的顺序出题。因此，在完成Mini-lecture之后应该迅速预读INTERVIEW/CONVERSATION的考题。通过浏览选项，考生基本可以了解对话的主题，并猜测问题。在每个选项中划出关键词（每道题的四个选项大多结构类似，划出不同之处）这样，听录音的时候，会有侧重点。由于录音只播放一次，仅凭脑力是无法全部记住内容。在听录音的过程中，应适当地做一些笔记，比如时间，地点，价格等。在记录时要善于运用一些简单地字符或者自己熟悉速记方式。
阅读篇
测试要求：
（a)能读懂一般英美报刊杂志上的社论和书评。
（b)能读懂有一定难度的历史传记和文学作品。
（c)能理解所读材料的主旨大意，分辨出其中的事实和细节；能理解字面意义和隐含意义；能根据所读材料进行判断和推理；能分析所读材料的思想观点、语篇结构、语言特点和修辞手法。
（d)能在阅读中根据需要自觉调整阅读速度和阅读技巧。（e)考试时间45分钟。
从上图的专八题型分值分布可知，专八阅读的比重是最大的，可以这么说“得阅读者 得专八”。专八阅读分为A部分选择题和B部分简答题。试卷上呈现的是先A部分：几篇文章，每篇文章后有几道选择题，然后再B部分：每篇文章都有1-3道简答题。如果按顺序答题，先做完选择，再做简答题。就需要花费很多时间。因为专八阅读的篇幅较长，内容较复杂。每篇文章跳读较大，因此容易出现做了后面的，忘了前面的情况。因此我建议同一篇文章AB两部分一起做。同一篇文章的选择题和简答题昨晚之后再开始阅读下一篇阅读的文章。
由于文章的篇幅较长，而且与平常我们所看的文章不同，没有逻辑可言，尤其是文学类的文章。我推荐的方法是先读题再看文章，带着问题读文章。通常来说阅读题的顺序和段落是一致的，即第一道阅读题定位在文章的一、二段，那么第二道阅读题就可能在三、四段（第二段以后）。由于专八文章不需要每篇文章都读懂读透，更不需要你去赏析。没时间，没时间，没时间！都2021年了，重要的事情仍需要说三遍。通常来说，文章的首尾段必读，然后中间段粗读，便可掌握文章的大意。之所以要特别注意文章的开头和结尾段落是因为主题句往往出现在这两处地方。抓住了文章的主题句，便可以掌握文章的中心思想和感情色彩。
做专八阅读题，专八词汇必须背起来。之前我有推荐过《如鱼得水记单词》和墨墨背单词，这里我就不多赘述了，详细请看专八阅读太难了，搞明白这些，一定提分！专八阅读中常考词意替换或者解释这个单词的意思，而这里考到的词汇往往就是专八的词汇，如果你刚好知道，那么题很快就可以解出来。如果你不清楚，那就只能结合语境，联系上下文。
解答细节题的关键在于准确定位。与听力类似，阅读中也有信号词和定位的技巧。具体有：出题的顺序，逻辑信号词（因果，转折等等），题干中的实词，长词，难词，缩写以及特殊符号等等。高频考点往往出现在段首，段尾，引语，因此浏览文章的时候，以上几处应该多加关注。
牢牢抓住文章的中心。也就是所谓的大方向，这样你就不会被一些带有诱惑性的选项给带跑了。再做一些围绕主题的问题时，对于一些模棱两可的选项时，可以考虑是否与主题相关。与主题相关的是正确选项，反之就是干扰项。同时要关注选项之间的联系，主旨类题目常常会碰到C选项对，D选项也对的情况。然而仔细一比较分析会发现C是被包括在D中的，D选项更为全面。
阅读简答题与选择题的作答方式不同，但是考点类似，有细节题，翻译题，归纳题等等。特别值得注意的是简答题的字数不能超过10个单词。简答题的答案尽量用文章中出现的关键词进行作答，避免拼错，答案也更加直观。但是由于字数的限制，不能完完全全用原文作答，因此需要对原文的有关内容进行概括归纳或者转换。再明确要作答的内容之后，还要尽力避免常见的语法错误，如主谓不致，时态，单复数等等。
改错篇
测试要求：
能运用语法、词汇、修辞等语言知识识别所给短文内的语病并提出改正方法。

翻译篇
测试要求：
1.能运用汉译英的理论和技巧，翻译我国报刊杂志上的论述文和国情介绍，以及一般文学作品的节录
2.翻译速度为每小时250~300字
玄奘曾提出的翻译标准“既须求真，又须喻俗”，意即“忠实”、“通顺”，直到今天仍然具有指导意义。针对专八翻译考试，需要做到：忠实原文，译文通顺。不求翻译优美，只求翻译准确。从翻译的题材上来看，汉译英的选材大多为文学选段，如《梁山伯与祝英台》，老舍的《我的母亲》等等。涉及的范围较广，因此翻译是很难短时间内提上去，平时外文阅读的很重要。或者看一些翻译家的译文。这里推荐许渊冲《唐诗与唐画》有时间可以看一看，翻译得太精彩了！！许老yyds！！“巧妇难为无米之炊”词汇量的多少在很大得程度上决定着翻译的成败。上一篇推文我已经提到过要背单词！！不光是要知道它的意思这么简单，还有用法，变型，同义词等等。
虽说翻译水平很难一下子提上去，但还是有一些应试的策略帮你多得分。
1. 迅速浏览篇章，掌握整体意思；确定基本时态，主语，句型，定语，状语，补语的位置。
2. 逐句翻译，确定长句的主干——太短的句子考虑合并，太长无法驾驭, 考虑拆分。
3. 遣词造句——词句无亮点时候，考虑近义词的转化。
4. 重读句子，检查译文是否正确地转述了原文的内容，是否有错译和漏译。（之前做练习的时候曾发现自己漏译了一阵句）其次，检查语言是否通顺，确保语法正确性。
最后，推荐大家读一读张培基的《英汉翻译教程》。
写作篇
测试要求：
能根据所给阅读材料和要求撰写各类体裁的文章，文章长度不少于300个单词；能做到内容切题、充实，条理清楚，结构严谨，语法正确，语言通顺，表达得体。考试时间45分钟。
作文部分，我采用的是平日常练习的三段式定结构，具体如下：
第一部分为“引言＋总结”段，其作用包括引入话题、总结材料和提出观点。该部分约占全文1/3,即约100词。在总结材料的时候，不要照搬原文，可以对原文句型进行paraphrase，保留主要观点。（综英里学的paraphrase终于派上用场了）文章中的第一人称，在总结时通常要转换成第三人称。
第二部分为正文段，是主体部分，主要是论证自己的观点，（Topic sentence+supporting sentences/evidences/details+conclusion这部分在约占到150~180词。这部分可按论点的数量细分为两段或三段，若各论点关系紧密，也可合为一段。善于使用连接词，例如Besides，In addition，What's more.使得文章看起来条例通顺，结构清晰。
第三部分为结论段，对全文作总结和概况，重申观点，呼应首段。一般为50词左右。这部分虽然很短，但作用不可忽视，如果写不好，会给阅读卷老师虎头蛇尾的感觉。
最后的最后要关注自己的卷面。字迹端正，卷面整洁，会给阅卷老师留下好印象，增加一点情感分。
预祝看到这里你，都能得到你想要的这两个小本本~
