去年年底就报名21Sept2008托福考试，但是因为种种借口，一直都没有开始复习。一晃就到了6月了。我想先看看怎么复习，在寄托，太傻晃悠了两天了，怎么越看越心慌阿？从寄托找到小马，更是觉得眼前没有光明了。只有三个半月了，我还什么都不知道，而且我还没时间去上辅导班，只能自己奋斗。我决定开始复习了。只要努力，奇迹还是会发生的。
9 I( @1 s. e1 p1 {. W, Q7 b* E    我先说说我的大概情况：全国重点大学硕士毕业，英语水平中等。在一家行业排名不错的外企工作，虽然每天都用英语，但是都是口水话，不是很难。听力不怎么好。在完全的复习计划没有拟定以前，我想先开始单词和听力的学习。1 i( M1 d3 F- \% f9 D' y
    看完小马哥的文章，我决定从场景分类开始听写和跟读，一个月的时间听完吧，跟读可能会慢些，不要求全部读完，但是每读的一篇文章都要做到非常熟悉。单词准备每天2个list，王玉梅的单词书。
3 O& E' Q; o% u& t    其他的还不知道怎么开始，我再吸取一点前辈的经验再决定。" P( w. u5 a$ @: H/ O6 a0 n2 @
    BTW：我现在除了一本单词书什么书都没有，看了推荐的书我都傻了，不知道该买什么。我不想什么都买，因为没有那么多时间做，我就想买了的书一定要有用，做透，大家推荐一下用什么书吧。$ E/ f  c4 j& f' q, _
    我会在接下来的日子记录我听力过程中的点点滴滴，包括学习总结，心得体会，欢迎大家拍砖，也欢迎共同讨论。我想我们一定会取得好成绩的。

早上听了分类场景campus Life第一篇，先把题目做了，五题错一个，悲！！听写简直惨不忍睹。发上来纪念一下，第一篇听写作文，希望会慢慢有进步。
