雅思听力必备情景词汇朗阁雅思考试研究中心Listening situation: students survey, case study, placement (section 3)在学校中接触的人从辅导员到督导再到讲师教授都会跟你的海外学习发生密切的关系,在上课和日常学习过程中要注意跟他们的交流。
国外学习和国内学习最大的不同是学习方式和研究方法的不同。
要想尽快跟上学习进度,除了语言以外,熟练掌握和应用各种学习方法也是非常有必要的。

朗阁雅思培训中心分析认为这个场景需要掌握的内容非常细,非常杂,但是都跟生活息息相关的:住宿类型,位置,价格,带不带家具,设施,对住宿的要求等都非常重要。

对于慈善要注意做慈善的对象以及活动的形式。

朗阁雅思考试研究中心建议一篇好的论文首先要有一个清晰明朗的格式,在写之前还要做大量的调研工作,要有一定的时间计划,要严格按照论文写作的细节性要求,要注明出处(否则就是剽窃),还要注意完成的时间节点(延期一般只有特殊原因才被允许,例如生病等)。
要想完成好一篇论文,不但要参照上课的笔记,与同学讨论的结果,还要基于大量的图书馆阅读和恰当的调研方法的应用。
可以说论文写作是学员是否认真学习的真实写照,也反映出了国外大学不只重视最终结果,也注重整个过程的严谨性。
这和国内大学平时不学,考前突袭的学习方式有着巨大的反差。
