(The following source-Zhihu: a humble heart)
Eight years of reform:
Listen:
The length of 1 Mini-lectures increased, from 10 to 15, and papers were issued in advance (to be determined).
2. A long talk is an interview. The number and length of questions remain the same, and the paper problems disappear. You need to wait for the problem to appear in your listening comprehension.
3. News listening is cancelled.
Reading: 8 subjective short answer items are added, and the number of words answered is limited.
Translation: Cancel some English translation and keep Chinese-English translation.
Humanistic knowledge: the cancellation of humanistic knowledge.
Correction: that is, proofreading and retention.
Writing: Write a 300-word summary within 30 minutes based on the two established articles.
analyse
1. Obviously, on the whole, TEM-8 is less difficult and slimmer (news, humanities, English translation cancelled).
2. Although the mini LEC has been lengthened, if the paper is sent in advance, the difficulty will be reduced.
3. Reading subjective questions and writing summary are difficult, while the latter is difficult. For English majors, non-majors, or students who have not made a summary, they must be prepared in advance.
Of course, everything is subject to official information, and all kinds of gossip should be identified by yourself.
You can still buy the exam questions of TEM-8 over the years to practice, especially listening, reading, translation and error correction. There's still plenty of time. Listen, read, translate and write more.
You don't have to buy exercise books first. Maybe a corresponding book will be published at the end of this year or early next year. Give them some time. You can visit the bookstore from time to time to see if there are any new books. Shock wave or spark series can be used.
The first year of reform is generally not difficult, so don't put too much pressure on it. Lay a good foundation in English, and you are not afraid of any questions.
