一:继续申请多种奖学金
进 入港校之后除了系奖学金之外,还可以申请书院奖学金以及学校奖学金。一般获得系奖学金较容易,而书院和学校奖学金则和成绩挂钩。书院与学院不同,它是教学 生生活的地方。而在中文大学有联合、崇基等四个书院,每个书院按照自己的经济情况决定发放奖学金的多少和比例。在GPA(平均积点)达到3.7的学生可获 8万奖学金,达到3.5可获4万奖学金,也就是相当于一年和半年的学费了。如果成绩足够优秀(达到3.9或4),则可以被提名获得大学奖学金。
自然,校内奖学金的获得有保护色彩,更多倾向于香港人,但是内地学生的机会也不少,随着年级越高得到各项奖学金的机会越大。
二:寒假当教授研究助手
虽然中文大学没有“勤工俭学”的机会,但是不少内地学子仍然能够获得一些补贴的机会。如在寒假当教授的研究助手,每个月能够拿到五六千元的“工资”,当然这对高年级优先。
或者,也可以教香港人普通话。有些同学给人教普通话,以100元/小时的价格每周教共4小时,一个月下来就有1600元的收入,而这已经足够半个学期的吃饭费用。
三:生活费上省钱有方
吃 饭:平时要是到饭堂吃,每顿16~18元港币;要是自己煮饭吃,只要8元就行,可以省下一半的钱。学校的宿舍是两人一间,均提供有炊具。超市和菜市场都在 附近,10元钱就可买两个生鸡腿,5元钱可以买两个椰菜花,基本上6元钱的菜就可以吃两顿。一个月的生活费约用1000元左右,父母一年给其1万元,每年 可以净省3000元。
洗衣:如果到洗衣房,一学期都要三百到五百,自己洗就省很多了。
电脑:香港还有学生购机计划,在学校买电脑可以比市面便宜三千到四千元。
买书:如果是老师指定的参考书到市场上买要两千多元一年,但如果借师兄师姐的或到二手论坛买,就能省下一千,基本都能满足。
买衣服:在正常的情况下,一年购置衣物不会超过5000元。
路费:以每个月回家两次计算,一年路费大概在一千五左右。
总听全文
既 然叫总听,就是不要陷入文章内容的细节。总听只做两件事:一是明确主题,大概知道这个段落讲了什么事。二是寻找逻辑。英文文章的逻辑包括什么呢?只要能简 单判断出这篇文章是按时间顺序写的还是空间顺序;是现象解释还是两种观点的比较等。所以在总听第一遍的时候,关注那些起承转合的词,可以帮我们快速把握文 章的逻辑关系。
比如你听一篇段落,听到in the past,那你的预期就该是,后面可能会提到now,也许还有in the future。听到“一些人认为”,那你的反应应该是,接下来会谈“另一些人或者我认为的”。以前大家对于这样的能够提示你文章逻辑关系或顺序的词是不敏 感的。总是在听写第一遍的时候就陷入细节。
细听每句
在 细听每句时,我见过有同学用复读机听。一句话说完,他就按个复读,让机子一遍一遍地读这句话,他不紧不慢地逐字听写下来。这种听写就属于低效甚至无效听 写。换句话说,你付出了80%的努力,却可能只带来20%的效果。还有些同学是这样练习的:就听一句话时,刚听到两个词,就马上按暂停,写下这两个词,然 后再听三个词按暂停,写下这三个词。一句话被他分割成很多部分,听得支离破碎。我这里讲的细听每句,主要强调句子的概念,是sentence by sentence的听写,不是word by word的听写。不过,这里的sentence也不是说非得到一个句号才算是一个sentence,这里指的是一个语意的停顿,包括像逗号,分号,冒号 等,都叫语意的停顿,在这样的地方可以按暂停。
具体操作建议:一句话先听一遍,到了一 个语意停顿的地方按暂停,通过你的回忆把这句话写下来。有同学可能说,老师,一句话说了十几个词,我才能写出三五个单词,根本没关系,因为我们在这里练的 不是把听到的内容完全写下来的能力,而是锻炼记忆和总结能力。这里记住:每句话只听一遍,尽力写出或复述出你听到的内容。能写多少算多少。开始能写三五个 词,坚持练习,就能写出更多的。

精听每一个句子的单词,开始的时候可以先只是听,待听完后拿出专门的时间来写下大脑中记住的内 容。很多人在初期训练的时候感觉太难实施,一个主要的原因就是开始训练的时候就边听边写,听和写相互影响,对自己的提出了过高的要求,以至于难以实施;请 大家一定要注意不是要求听的过程全部将内容写完,一定要留出专门的时间停止播放磁带来专门写出内容。
一 般将听写过程分为三遍,少数高手可以分两遍写完,最好使用两托福口语有提示种或者多种颜色的笔,分别书写第一第二第三遍,用以区别每次的听写内容。听完第一遍,可以按照 自己脑子中的印象进行加工处理,把自己脑中的信息都写出来,即使自己此时使用的单词和原文有出入也尽量写出来,这样在第二第三遍的时候可以加以修改。
整个听写的过程中,第一遍是最重要的,第二、三遍是补充和修改。听写过程中不必追求书写,但求速度,最好能准备多张纸张,每一张写2-3道第一二部分的对话题目为宜。

雅思听力误区一:必需每个单词都听懂才能解题
很 多考生在解听力题的过程中,有一种“完美主义”倾向。非得把听力中每个单词都听出来。结果却是,一旦某个单词卡壳,就不断得纠缠在这个单词身上,而录音却 无情地继续进行,到最后,结果可想而知。做听力题毕竟不是谈恋爱,谈恋爱要专一,而听力题中,某个单词或某几个单词听不懂听不清楚,就让它过去吧,毕竟不 要为了一棵树而放弃了整片森林。
雅思听力误区二:在长对话和短文题中“走神”电影中的雅思口语
很 多考生在做短对话时注意力还是颇为集中的,但一到长对话和短文题就出现“走神”现象。这属于注意力不集中,这种情况一般是因为前面有听不懂的部分,导致后 面意思衔接不上,就陷入“走神”。当然,有一部分考生有时也会莫名其妙的转移注意力。那么解决“走神”的方法是什么呢?建议采用“蜘蛛网原则”。蜘蛛在织 网时,头是不会抬起来的,因为一旦抬起头,网可能就会断。所以建议大家养成一个习惯,在平时学习或做题时,强迫自己在30分钟内不能抬头,一旦抬头,从头 开始计时。养成习惯后,再逐步增加不抬头的时间,从30分到40分……只要广大考生按照这个建议去训练,你一定能克服“走神”这个坏习惯。
1.dude(老兄,老哥)
很多人认为该词单指“花花公子,纨绔子弟”的意思,实际上此词是叫男性年轻人的常用词,与guy的意思相同,只是guy用的范围更广。 例子:Hey dude look at that girl.(喂,老兄,看那个女孩)
2.chick(女孩)
容易被误解为“鸡,妓女”,实际上此词是叫女孩的常用词,语气中确实有轻佻、不尊重的倾向。例子:Look at that chick at the door.(看门口的那个女孩)
3.pissed off(生气,不高兴)
千万别认为是“尿尿”的意思,piss off在字典中则是“滚开,滚蛋”的意思,实际上此词是表示“生气,不高兴”的意思,与angry同意。例子:Man,is that guy pissed of ?(哎呀,那家伙真的生气了)
4.Hey,Give me five(嗨,好啊!)
此短语非常流行,经常在大片中出现,常在击掌庆贺时用。例子:Hey,dude! Give me five!(嗨,老兄,好啊!)
5.freak out(大发脾气)
总是在片子中看到这个词,freak本义是“奇异的,反常的”的意思,但freak out是“大发脾气”的意思,out也可以省略,这个词在美语中很常见,老式说法是be very upset.例子:He‘s gonna freak(他快要发脾气了)
6.Get out of here(别开玩笑了,别骗人了)
大家很容易联想到“滚开”的意思,其实,现在很多时候都用在“别开玩笑了,别骗人了”的意思里,在美国片子中常可以听到。例子:(Man:)You look very beautiful(你很漂亮)(Girl)Get out of here.(别骗了)
