Features: The CET training at this center is always full, with a significant number of students and working individuals unable to secure a spot. Every time I witness this, my heart genuinely hopes every student has a chance, but seats are after all limited. Thus, I came up with the idea of presenting all the teaching content in written form, which is also the driving force behind writing this book. During the International Conference on Language Teaching and Testing held at Shanghai Jiao Tong University from September 13 to 15, 2002, I became even more aware of the positive impact of language testing on language teaching. This awareness and sense of responsibility toward students accelerated the writing process of this book.
Distinctive Features:
1. The material in this book is primarily derived from the first-hand teaching experience of the CET instructor at the Language Training Center of the School of Foreign Languages, East China Normal University. The design of the book facilitates students in absorbing knowledge as if they were sitting in a classroom, making it easy to digest.
2. The language in the book is humorous and vivid, making learning enjoyable.
3. The book incorporates the application of testing techniques from ETS exams (e.g., TOEFL, GRE) in the CET, offering insightful and profound analysis.
4. The detailed solutions to new questions from 2000, 2001, and 2002 provide students with an immersive practice experience.
5. The purpose of this book is not only to help students pass the CET smoothly but also to enable them to master the methods of English learning through studying it, laying a foundation for future exams like CET-6, TOEFL, and IELTS, and ultimately truly mastering English as a tool.
This book is primarily based on the author's comprehensive insights and experiences from teaching CET at the Language Training Center of the School of Foreign Languages, East China Normal University. The material used is up-to-date, and the language is humorous and engaging. The book integrates ETS exam techniques (e.g., TOEFL, GRE) into the CET, offering profound analysis and unique insights, making it suitable as a training textbook for the CET-4 exam. Additionally, the detailed solutions to the CET-4 exam questions from 2000, 2001, and 2002 further enhance students' practical practice.
