非常好的方法！！！

多准备一些类似的题目。考试是很可能会出你准备过的题或者类似的题目。如果提前准备的充分，会信心大增，下面的题也会答得很好！！！

感觉楼主时间利用的很充分阿！！儿童节也不休息！！呵呵！！

我还有20天，单词不单独背诵了，觉得有时候在文章里面背单词好像印象更深刻一点。建议你多做题，多总结。听一位5月份的考试的姐姐告诉我她的强项是阅读，但是没有想到，考试的时候竟然阅读成了弱项。总的来说阅读听力真的是重点，这2项基本上是每天都要练的。如果我时间可以倒转，我会努力抓阅读和听力的。找准几套题把他们吃透。真的是太重要了。希望我们可以一起努力！加油。。。

To cocoshi: 谢谢你的建议。我们一起加油！你现在抓也来得及呢：） 还有作文和口语也不能放过～～～
