前言：
考完GRE已經(jīng)整整一周了，這七天里我看電影，打球，跟朋友聚會，上網(wǎng)買東西，很是放松了一把。當然也同時利用這些時間從太傻下載了許多我認為有用的IBT資料，并整理完畢。
發(fā)現(xiàn)我的自制力還是沒有想象中的好，如GRE備考一樣，我也在這里開個IBT備考日記，每天把當天所學記錄下來，并做好明日計劃，以此督促自己每日高效率地學習。懇請眾GT戰(zhàn)友監(jiān)督我哦，剩下的這60天（偶8月17日在南京考），一天也不能浪費了。加油！
背景介紹：
目前已工作一年，為某高校老師。本碩皆非英語專業(yè)。2002年通過大學英語四級85分，六級75分，本科時參加了英語本科段自學考試，啃完了所有課程。研究生做畢業(yè)論文時閱讀了大量專業(yè)英文論文。我對英語一直很感興趣，算是這么多年從未間斷英語學習吧。6月7日剛考完GRE。（特別聲明哦：我不是牛人，只是每天給自己定個稍高的任務來提高自己的學習效率。6G成績還沒出，感覺考得不好，ANYWAY，我已盡力了。）
IBT備考總體思路：
自己感覺我的閱讀、詞匯和語法都不存在大問題，聽力和寫作問題也不大（當然仍需加強），難點是口語，而我又希望口語考到25分以上，所以，口語是我的IBT備考重點。
保持住閱讀和詞匯，重點提高自己交流的能力：即口語和寫作。聽力也要花大力氣提高。
資料：
我不報專門的IBT輔導班，但在7月打算花銀子參加一個外教的口語提高班。目前只買了一本《新托福考試完全攻略》，大體了解了IBT是什么樣子。其他資料全是從太傻下載的。（考完IBT以后，要做點什么回報太傻才是）
初步計劃：
6月16日-27日近十天的安排：（口語強化加做完OG）
口語：先花10天時間把語音語調糾正一下，把嘴巴打開，把舌頭練靈活些。十天后開始背段子。這十天內無論做什么都要盡量讓耳朵聽，嘴巴說。
口語語音語調十天突破的具體安排初擬：用10天（6月17日-27日）左右把4+1聽說速成的語音語調練完一遍，每天3課時。
同時，16日-22日，花7天把《正音美語發(fā)音基本功》練完一遍，并參考賴世雄的美國音標速成的MP3。此階段語音糾正結合這個http://www.uiowa.edu/~acadtech/phonetics/english/frameset.html網(wǎng)站的講解進行http://www.uiowa.edu/~acadtech/phonetics/english/frameset.html
http://www.uiowa.edu/~acadtech/phonetics/english/frameset.html
增：利用間隙時間每天聽3個“美音語調”TIPS,并聽完寫出來.
23日-27日，跟著 American accent training的MP3 和文本以及《節(jié)奏訓練》的系統(tǒng)學語調。
聽力：每天精聽一集FRIENDS。增：根據(jù)afiyyn的建議加大聽力分量，每天聽寫一期scientific america 。
閱讀和寫作：每天看30頁，我從圖書館借的外文專業(yè)書籍 。做好英文筆記，并摘抄好的句子。
詞匯：每天跟著MP3 讀紅寶書5個LIST 的單詞。
做題：嘗試利用16日-月底，把OG 做完。
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6.16 總結：
語音：1.跟著UIOWA 網(wǎng)站把VOWELS學完了第一遍，這網(wǎng)站感覺很好。明天把正音的跟上。
2.利用吃飯間隙聽了“美音語調”三個TIPS。吃飯的路上和吃飯時聽幾遍，回來再聽一遍并做筆記，然后根據(jù)筆記完成了以下寫作：
Daily Tips on Learning English
The first tip I learned today is the difference between can and can’t. The most effective way to distinguish ‘can’ and ‘can’t’ in oral English is in stress: ‘can’ is not stressed but the verb after it is; whereas ‘can’t’ is stressed and the verb after it is not stressed, e.g., I can drive bicycle, but I can’t drive a car.
The second tip I learned today is how to distinguish the number thirteen and thirty, fourteen and forty, fifteen and fifty, and so forth. The secret of distinguishing these pairs of words in spoken English is also in the stress patterns: in the –teen numbers, it is the first syllable which is stressed while, in the –ty numbers, it is the second syllable which is stressed, e.g.,
thirteen, thirty.
The third tip I’ve learned today is about stressed and unstressed syllables. A stressed syllable is pronounced more prominently than surrounding syllables, simply put, we say louder and lengthen the vowel sound. While in the unstressed syllables the vowels are reduced. It is important to lengthen stressed vowel sounds, e.g., the stress pattern of ‘I didn’t do it on purpose’ is similar with that of ‘banana’.
聽力：精聽了老友記101并記憶了相關詞匯。
閱讀：看了OG第一章。讀后感如下：順便練習寫作：
Book review of the first chapter of OG
I spent about one hour reading the first chapter of the OG this evening. Definitely a good book it is. The major contribution of reading the first chapter of OG is that I must change my motivation of taking IBT. I should not treat this examination as the way I do with CET4/6, or the GRE. Because since tonight’s reading I have known that ETS created the IBT is not for nothing but to evaluate the prospective students' abilities of using English effectively in an academic environment and communicate confidently with spoken or written English. And what has impressed me most is the ETS' emphasis on students' output skills in oral and written way, i.e. speak and write something after you have read and heard some academic materials.
I want to be a PH.D in the U.S.A, and I want to be successful in the academic setting in the future, therefore I have to improve my abilities of listening, speaking, reading and writing in English--especially speaking, listening and writing.
Though it sounds a little tough for me to dramatically improve my English abilities in just two months, but I regard this period of time as a start of my path toward a successful academic survivor in the America. Remember, impossible is nothing! I believe if I try my best I can fly freely in my favorite academician sky in the near future.
SO JUST KEEP ON HARD WORKING TOMMOROW!

6.17學習總結（下午被領導抓去參加活動了，F(xiàn)RIENDS沒聽，閱讀和單詞任務沒有完成）
1. DAILY TIPS ON LEARNING ENGLISHThe first tip I learned today is how syllable stress affect the meaning of words. As we have known, stressed syllables are said louder and lengthened, and unstressed syllables are said softly and the vowel sounds are reduced. Stress syllable alone can make the difference of a word's meaning. If the second syllable is stressed the word is a verb, and if the first syllable is stressed the word is either a noun or an ajective, e.g., If you don not have a perform fishing in the pool is not performed.
The second tips I learned today is the difference between voiced and voiceless consanants, such as the difference between 't' and 'd'. I think this is very easy for us to distinguish them, so I don't need to tell details of it.
The third tips on learning English I learned today is how to use the difference of voiced and voiceless consanants to distinguish different words. The vowel followed by voiced consanants is shorter than that followed by voiceless consanants, e.g., the sound of 'e' in 'bet 'is shorter than the sound of 'a' in 'bad'.
2.剛聽了第一期的SCIENTIFIC AMERICANS. (鏈接一下應該不侵權

超打擊哦,一上來就拿筆想記,結果頭三遍下來還沒聽出是干啥,于是,只聽不記,反復聽到第十遍,才能把大體內容和細節(jié)聽清楚,但幾個人名和專業(yè)詞匯死活聽不出, 然后,又開始聽一句,停下來,默寫出來,就這樣又聽了十遍才寫完全文. 哎,怎么記筆記哦.聽力真的不容忽視哦.
3.語音語調：花3小時認真練習了UIOWA 網(wǎng)站的輔音。明天要花時間區(qū)分自己容易發(fā)錯的音。再把所有的音位糾正一遍。跟著4+1把3個課時的內容練了一遍。（主要跟女的練的，那男的發(fā)音不地道，我逢他就跳。）
4.閱讀：
