Features: The fundamental purpose of writing this book is to help students conquer the TOEFL Listening section using the New Oriental school's Cracking System. The book is divided into three main parts: "Theoretical Section," "Practice Section," and "Appendices."
"Theoretical Section" covers the New Oriental school's Cracking System, which includes methods, techniques, and theoretical principles for improving TOEFL Listening skills. "Practice Section" provides detailed explanations and skill analyses of key points from all full practice tests in New Oriental's TOEFL Listening Part Two, covering the period from January 1989 to May 1999. For easy reference, the key explanations and skill analyses of difficult questions are arranged strictly in chronological order, ensuring strict consistency with the sequence of New Oriental's TOEFL Listening.
For the seemingly simple yet confusing authentic short words and phrases commonly found in TOEFL Listening, in addition to being explained in detail and precisely in "Practice Section," students can quickly search for the short words, phrases, Chinese annotations, and their occurrences in the TOEFL exam in Appendix 1. Appendix 2 lists relatively difficult vocabulary in TOEFL Listening, which students refer to as "hard words." Appendix 3 provides explanations of key points from 30 practice sets in New Oriental's TOEFL Listening Part One.
