同义词替换——你要的阅读写作干货在这里！（二）

相信各位PTE考生通过我们之前的推送文章，渐渐熟悉了PTE考试写作和阅读题的特点：

 

写作

不是单纯的写作文

写作有两种题型，Summary和写essay。Summary是要先读一个300字左右的短文，然后用一句话，并且只能一句话，概括出这一段的主要意思。这句话既不能过长，又必须精确概况短文中的内容，不能遗漏太多内容，对语法长难句的要求特别高，需要运用各种从句。

essay写作是20分钟一篇200-300字的大作文，题目类型和雅思大作文相似。但是会根据不同考生的抽签情况，会出现1～3篇不等的大作文。

 

阅读

词汇难度比雅思高

既有单选题也有多选题，文章难度感觉和GRE阅读差不多。但是Titan老师在这里强烈推荐大家把GRE词汇作为PTE考试的补充词库，因为PTE官方词库远远达不到实际考试所需要的难度。

由于题目类型很多，有完形填段，段落排序，文章填词，总的难度还是挺高的。又有时间限制，所以考生必须做到熟悉题型／灵活掌握。

 

说到这，感觉PTE考试难难哒～想尽快考出65分甚至79分好像还有点距离……
