托福阅读参考书如何选择

现在市面上的托福阅读参考书五花八门，我们要如何去甄选呢?选择参考书对托福备考是非常重要的，下面小编就给大家推荐一些!

托福阅读参考书如何选择?

有的时候，市面上的学习资料不是太少了，而是太多了。如果用“乱花渐欲迷人眼”来形容现在的托福书籍市场，真的是毫不过分，仅是流行的longman，delta，Thomson，Barron，高分120，TPO，剑桥，Kaplan就已经是一只手数不过来了。如果再加上很多根本不流行的，很可能要用上朋友的手指头，加脚趾头才能数的清。

但是实际上，绝大多数由于出得很早，就是因为早期占领了市场而保证销量延续至今，但是实际上大多只能算是败絮其中，要是谈兵法，就要首先把市面上的常见材料分分清。

Longman：真的是很初级的教材，难度远远低于新托福的实际水平，找快感，树立自信用这个材料不错，除此之外，用处不大。当然这是针对基础不错的，要是基础一般的话，这个作为入门材料也未尝不可。

Delta：难度略高于Longman，不过现在看来，相比与新托福考试，这本书的作用也仅限于垫桌子角仅此而已，如果非要说有什么用的话，就是跟Longman一样，在寒冷的冬夜，可以用来取暖!不知道卖女孩的小火柴^_^会不会惊恐的看到篝火之中出现的不是大餐，而是ETS的logo^_^

Thomson：如果你真的想花钱在这个东西的身上的话，你最好把这些钱捐给李连杰的“壹基金”，相信孩子们的那些教科书比这本书有用多了。Thomson虽然比Delta还是算稍微难一点，以及模考软件做得更精良一点。但是如果你追求效率的最大化的话，这本书也是可以跳过的。

Barron：这本书要是跳过的话，很多人就有点不舒服了，因为这本书，在新托福考试的早期还是很受人追捧的。但是无可奈何花落去，虽然这本书在文章的选材，以及题目的难度上，还是可以被稍微认可的。但是我们不得不承认这本书现在与新托福突破口TPO也就是真题比较起来，真的是出题思路或者说出题方向不一致，如果你在考前只坚持用这本书的话，你很有可能是南辕北辙了，现在来看，第一难度偏低，第二思路有偏差，第三考点有偏差。因此这本书可以在准备考试的初期拿来做一做，但是最大的时间还是要放在新托福突破口TPO上的。

剑桥：直接扔!名气大?!那好吧，回答这个问题LV牌的臭豆腐你吃么?

Kaplan：简单来说，难度过大，出题思路诡异，答案就显得更加诡异!完全不建议做!

高分120：这本书可以说还是不错的。贴近新托福考试难度，当然还是与前面所提到的材料相比。不过必须客观的说，就现阶段的新托福考试的整体水平，出题难度，确实是高分120是最好的非官方材料，没有之一!无论是从文章难度，还是从选材以及题目的设置都是不错的!值得推荐!

新托福突破口TPO：ETS官方的材料，当然是最好的了!但是我们也必须看到，新托福考试的难度还是在逐年上升的，因此很多筒子们都赶脚到，前面的新托福突破口TPO阅读的难度要低于新托福突破口TPO后面几条的难度，这就是因为ETS是每年都会放出一些新的新托福突破口TPO，代码越大的新托福突破口TPO就越新，也就越接近现在的新托福考试，因此如果想知道现在的新托福考试到底是什么难度，做最新的也就是TPO19是没有错的!但是别急!要知道新托福突破口TPO到现在也只有19套，因此一定要记得至少留3套进行模考哦!至于现在的新托福突破口TPO我们最常得到的是3个版本，一个是黄金阅读的word版本，再一个是PDF的版本，其实内容差不多，用前面的word版本更好。再一个就是用PPS的模考版本，这个在各大留学论坛上都能找到!

乱花渐欲迷人眼，浅草才能没马蹄。最爱湖东行不足，绿杨阴里白沙堤。自己的心是美的，托福考试也就是美的。

对托福参考书和资料使用的一些建议

除了裸考的同学外，几乎所有的考生都会买一些托福考试的参考书，也会从网上淘一些参考资料来复习。但是面对这些形形色色的参考书和参考资料，我们该如何选择呢，下面就是一位考生的经验之谈，也许对大家有一定借鉴。

今天出分了97~ 虽然没有100 但也算圆满完成任务~ 所以想对一些刚起步托福的人讲一下参考书和托福资料的自己的一些感受 希望大家不要浪费钱在一些没用的书和资料上~

我刚考托福的时候 只要看到新托福几个字的书~~ 我就会买~~ 然后发现很多书都没用 而且压根也没用。。。。。所以我在对这个托福资料上还是有点经验的

阅读： 网上下 黄金阅读~~ 全部是真题~~ 灰常有研究价值~~ 如果你愿意的话，可以再买本 黄金阅读真题及解析 卓越 当当 都有的买 ~~ 但是只有TPO1-TPO9的

听力： 我的经验是 用老托听力PartC练听抄+跟读 在用TPO的听力 去研究出题思路， 做题 还有盲读(盲读是你的听力水准差不多在六级听力的水平 再进行的，也就是慢原声 0.5秒的样子跟读~~但不用听抄~)

口语：黄金口语80题 各类机经 还有就是一本 口语真经2(里面收集的都是真题 还有 参考答案的 虽然听力的音频是他们找老外自己录的，女声有点纠结 )

写作： 慎小嶷写的 《十天突破新托福ESSAY》 和 李笑来的 《TOEFL高分作文》 我觉对这两本足矣~ 实践。。 就拿机经里的题目练吧~

至于DELTA Barron 等各类的 我基本没用 因为介些都系 模考题~~ 都不是ETS出的 出题思路很难与ETS 保持一致 有时候 偏差还很大~~

所以在搞定TPO 和老托 等各类真题之前 还是 别去做这些模考题了~~

总之一句话 真题至上~~ 有时间的话 再做做模考题吧

最后， 我不是牛人， 以上内容 仅供参考~~

托福阅读真题1

PASSAGE 1

By the mid-nineteenth century, the term icebox had entered the American language, but icewas still only beginning to affect the diet of ordinary citizens in the United States. The ice tradegrew with the growth of cities. Ice was used in hotels, taverns, and hospitals, and by someforward-looking city dealers in fresh meat, fresh fish, and butter. After the Civil War (1861-1865),as ice was used to refrigerate freight cars, it also came into household use. Even before 1880, halfthe ice sold in New York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore, and one-third of that sold in Boston andChicago, went to families for their own use. This had become possible because a new householdconvenience, the icebox, a precursor of the modern refrigerator, had been invented.

Making an efficient icebox was not as easy as we might now suppose. In the early nineteenthcentury, the knowledge of the physics of heat, which was essential to a science of refrigeration,was rudimentary. The commonsense notion that the best icebox was one that prevented the icefrom melting was of course mistaken, for it was the melting of the ice that performed the cooling.Nevertheless, early efforts to economize ice included wrapping the ice in blankets, which kept theice from doing its job. Not until near the end of the nineteenth century did inventors achieve thedelicate balance of insulation and circulation needed for an efficient icebox.

But as early as 1803, an ingenious Maryland farmer, Thomas Moore, had been on the righttrack. He owned a farm about twenty miles outside the city of Washington, for which the villageof Georgetown was the market center. When he used an icebox of his own design to transport hisbutter to market, he found that customers would pass up the rapidly melting stuff in the tubs ofhis competitors to pay a premium price for his butter, still fresh and hard in neat, one-poundbricks. One advantage of his icebox, Moore explained, was that farmers would no longer have totravel to market at night in order to keep their produce cool.

PASSAGE 2

The geology of the Earth's surface is dominated by the particular properties of water. Presenton Earth in solid, liquid, and gaseous states, water is exceptionally reactive. It dissolves,transports, and precipitates many chemical compounds and is constantly modifying the face ofthe Earth.

Evaporated from the oceans, water vapor forms clouds, some of which are transported bywind over the continents. Condensation from the clouds provides the essential agent ofcontinental erosion: rain. Precipitated onto the ground, the water trickles down to form brooks,streams, and rivers, constituting what are called the hydrographic network. This immensepolarized network channels the water toward a single receptacle: an ocean. Gravity dominatesthis entire step in the cycle because water tends to minimize its potential energy by running fromhigh altitudes toward the reference point, that is, sea level.

The rate at which a molecule of water passes though the cycle is not random but is a measureof the relative size of the various reservoirs. If we define residence time as the average time for awater molecule to pass through one of the three reservoirs — atmosphere, continent, and ocean— we see that the times are very different. A water molecule stays, on average, eleven days inthe atmosphere, one hundred years on a continent and forty thousand years in the ocean. Thislast figure shows the importance of the ocean as the principal reservoir of the hydrosphere butalso the rapidity of water transport on the continents.

A vast chemical separation process takes places during the flow of water over the continents.Soluble ions such as calcium, sodium, potassium, and some magnesium are dissolved andtransported. Insoluble ions such as aluminum, iron, and silicon stay where they are and form thethin, fertile skin of soil on which vegetation can grow. Sometimes soils are destroyed andtransported mechanically during flooding. The erosion of the continents thus results from twoclosely linked and interdependent processes, chemical erosion and mechanical erosion. Theirrespective interactions and efficiency depend on different factors.

1. The word modifying in line 4 is closest in meaning to

(A) changing

(B) traveling

(C) describing

(D) destroying

(A) clouds

(B) oceans

(C) continents

(D) compounds

3. According to the passage , clouds are primarily formed by water

(A) precipitating onto the ground

(B) changing from a solid to a liquid state

(C) evaporating from the oceans

(D) being carried by wind

4. The passage suggests that the purpose of the hydrographic network (line 8) is to

(A) determine the size of molecules of water

(B) prevent soil erosion caused by flooding

(C) move water from the Earth's surface to the oceans

(D) regulate the rate of water flow from streams and rivers

5. What determines the rate at which a molecule of water moves through the cycle, as discussed

in the third paragraph?

(A) The potential energy contained in water

(B) The effects of atmospheric pressure on chemical compounds

(C) The amounts of rainfall that fall on the continents

(D) The relative size of the water storage areas

6. The word rapidity in line 19 is closest in meaning to

(A) significance

(B) method

(C) swiftness

(D) reliability

8. All of the following are example of soluble ions EXCEPT

(A) magnesium
