How does Jianjiu compare with IELTS?

First of all, we should make it clear that all the materials of Jian 9 are real questions, which used to be IELTS questions, and these questions will never appear again. However, its difficulty, question design, test center design, proposition ideas and rules are exactly the same as those of the current real test, which has high model test value. The more open the real questions are, the easier it is for us to compare, summarize, refine and gain insight into the preferences, habits and laws of Cambridge IELTS proposers.

The latest IELTS true questions included in Sword 9 are provided by the Foreign Language Examination Department of Cambridge University Examination Committee, which is an essential reference book for all kinds of IELTS candidates in the preparation process. Although Cambridge IELTS 9 is the latest IELTS book published by Cambridge University Press, it contains old questions that have been tested many times before and was eliminated from the question bank. Of course, there will be new questions in the question bank to supplement and expand. In recent years, the trend is that the number of new questions is much larger than the four sets of questions eliminated from the question bank every two years, so the IELTS true question bank is actually an expanding trend.

Listening: Jian 9, as a new member of the IELTS series in Cambridge, is no less difficult in listening than Jian 2-8, and it is a continuation of Jian 2-8 in terms of scene, question type, pronunciation, intonation, speech speed and test words.

Judging from the audition version of Jian 9, it is still emphasized that the most important life scenes for international students and immigrants are: renting a house, looking for a job, traveling, etc. Discuss campus scenes such as homework with teachers and classmates. In fact, these scenes have been included in Sword 4 to Sword 8, and Sword 9 emphasizes repetition again, indicating that there are many listening scenes in the question bank, and candidates should attach great importance to review. Sword 9 includes a hospital scene this time, which is very practical and beneficial to both international students and immigrants.

Reading:

The reading articles include two articles about space exploration, SETI and transit of venus. This is different from the fact that Jian 8 prefers to include animals and Jian 7 prefers to include buildings. This leads to an increase in the probability of four articles on space exploration appearing in the question bank in the next exam: the influence of Saturn, Mars and Shoemaker on Jupiter, and the gravity between stars and planets. In fact, the article "Looking for SETI" can refer to page 133 of IELTS Reading Truth 3 published in 2007. For the article transit of venus, please refer to page 2 14 of IELTS Reading Truth 4 published in 2009. This paper has been tested four times in China, which are May 2007 12, June 20091day, February 28, 2009, and April 28, 20 12. Why? Because: transit of venus happened twice in 2 1 century, on June 8th, 2004 and June 6th, 2004, and the next group will happen in 2 1 17 years later. Therefore, it can be predicted that this article will be tested many times from 2004 to 20 12 years, but it will not be tested again after 20 12 years, because the IELTS test is likely to be gone after the next transit of Venus in a hundred years.

It can be seen that some IELTS reading test articles are time-sensitive.

According to this time rule, please carefully study the newly published IELTS reading truth 5, and the articles in it will be included in Sword 1 1 four years later.

Writing:

The composition of "Sword 9" includes four A-level writing essays with 7 points, 8 points, 6 points and 4 points and examiner's comments. In contrast, Sword 8 contains 5.5 points, 6 points, 8 points and 6.5 points; Sword 7 contains 5.5 points, 7.5 points, 6.5 points and 5 points. In this way, the model essay and examiner's comments of each score segment (including 0.5 points difference) from 5 to 8 are relatively complete. In particular, the changes of the two maps in Test 1 are both classic maps and have high reference value.

I hope it will help your problem.
