[Post] A Non-English Major's self-Statement: How can I get admitted to the EU Interpretation Division in one year?

My network name is Jacky. I have been studying in Qingdao for four years. I have been studying computer science and technology at Ocean University of China. I don't pay as much attention to the current popularity as many people do. Super Girl voices, happy male voices, come on! Good boy, Li Yuchun, Zhang Liangying, or Zhou bichang, I may not even know who is from China 7 to 6, 8 to 7. I may not know how to bring gold armor to mancheng, gong Li and Zhang Ziyi have the latest news, but I know the results of the Sixth Round of the Six-Party Talks. I also know the effects of the torrential rain and floods in China, the affected regions, I have another experience worth stopping.

Two years after graduation, I resigned and came to Beijing to prepare for my postgraduate entrance exam.

At the beginning, we were preparing a master school outside Beijing, which is also known as the simultaneous transmission major. However, at that time, in addition to the high salary of Tongchuan, they also improved their English skills.

In the first place, I had 6 levels of English, but I often practiced oral English, so the communication was smooth. This is my only advantage. Others, without a job or a computer Major, seem to be nothing good. But I have something that many people don't have. That is the firm perseverance. This is the most important thing for me to be successfully admitted.

Since the January S, I have prepared carefully, but I didn't have a clear concept of high flip, so I am naive to think that I would recite 60 articles recommended by New Oriental, then you can recite the GRE vocabulary to solve the problem. As a result, about a month later, I found that the language usage ability had indeed improved, but it was not enough to take the test because I started to contact <economist> and found that I could not understand it at that time. As a result, crazy searches on the Internet and high-flip-related content, forums, websites, blogs, and so on began to obtain a lot of information. Several important websites are recommended here:

If you have not carefully read economists, it will be too difficult to take a high score. Economists must look at it, and you 'd better read several articles every day.

If you want to take an exam outside Beijing, you must always go to the internal network of a special school outside Beijing to check the latest news. Where can many cool people post,

If you do not have a wide range of listening and knowledge, you need to go to the pute listening Forum frequently and practice. I have been here for more than a year.

Pute hearing Forum: http://www.putclub

These are some of the main forums. Next I will talk about how to improve their usefulness in the effort process.

In order to clearly describe my own efforts, I will list the exercises I have learned for each exam:

Basics of English ------ new concepts translated between Chinese and English; books 3 and 4; 60 articles selected by New Oriental; 50 essays by Zhang Peiji; all practical interpretation tutorials; modern Chinese-English interpretation tutorials; and Modern Chinese-English interpretation tutorials; exercise books, there are 7 books in total! In fact, there are many other things I have recited only 2-3 times and I don't want to mention. I have recited these books for at least 3-4 times. I have recited them for about 10 times. Then I will summarize the important sentences, phrases, and so on that I have to target myself.

Hearing ------ this is the most important thing for me. In order to exercise my hearing, I found the pute forum and strictly followed the training every day. You can find it on the forum. Listening to the BBC every day, because VOA is too simple and can be fully understood in about a month. So I kept listening to the BBC until that year in September. I found a software that can change the audio speed to NV player. You can search for it and download it for free, I also tried other software, but basically the sound will still be distorted, but this software will only speed up and sound will not be distorted. Then I started to change the speed of the BBC to 1. 1, 1. 2, and finally doubled the speed. You may sound like this speed change is no big deal, but when you really start to listen to it with this software, you will find that, even from 1. 1 to 1. 2. You will have a lot of things that you suddenly don't understand. At the same time, I also download the meeting site on the United Nations website and the White House meeting site every day, constantly listening at different speeds, in addition, I chose a variety of materials on the pute forum. I was constantly listening and refining. In October, I started to listen to BBC2 as quickly as possible, at the same time, I started my formal simultaneous upload exercises. Yes, I can already perform simultaneous uploads. However, they are all at the simultaneous transfer un site and at the white house site. Every day, they are around an hour, after about a month, I began to share VOA News. The simultaneous transmission of news is a taboo in the simultaneous transmission industry. That is to say, no one will share the news because of centralized information and high density, the speed was too fast and the challenge was too great, but I was brave enough to accept the challenge and began to insist on sharing news every day, because I found the UN meeting and the White House meeting were too simple, every day, I turn the UN and White House conferences into listening at twice the speed. I can understand the last time.

Later, I tried to share a video of a speech at the United Nations in Annan, basically slowing down the camera! Every time I listen to the effect of double speed, it becomes apparent, because at last I found that basically 90% of the content of Annan's speech was shared by me. During this period, I not only insisted on training the simultaneous transmission of news VOA, but also began to try to speed up the simultaneous transmission, that is, to change the speed of news to 1. It is indeed very difficult to achieve the same speed 3, but I still have overcome it. It requires a lot of courage and perseverance. Many people will ask me how you are motivated. I said, they all come from their own dreams, a dream in their hearts, and hope to be a person who can use their language freely and use their talents. As a result, gradually, in March, I was able to share with VOA News 1. 5 times faster, this is very difficult, because the speed is very fast, and you have to interpret at the same time, but these have created an extraordinary speed of reflection, and my stable psychological quality, because now I am listening to people, it is really like slowing down the camera. In May December, I also began to share CNN, which is also 1. I 've never tried the BBC, even though it's 5 times faster, and I 've always left it to myself for everyday listening.

Later, I switched the speed to 1 for the simultaneous transfer of VOA. It's faster, but it's already this year. And start to remember the news, that is, after the news is played and the simultaneous transmission is over, all the rough content of the meeting will be tried. Some friends may say that the news is simple and easy to remember, short-term memory exercises should still be recorded in meetings, but I don't think so. The 5-minute news may be very short. But you know, there are usually 10 main things in 7-8, and there is no connection to each other. If you can remember everything that has no connection, it will be easier to remember the meeting content. Some friends will find that, I am a little abnormal. I have to listen twice as quickly as I can, and I have to use news exercises!

Yes, my friends. If you read a lot of books and an autobiography, you will find that the people who have made achievements in this society are basically abnormal from a perspective, or you have done some abnormal things. However, from another perspective, this is not abnormal, It is persistent, it is love, It is passion. I have a classmate who has been in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for a long time. Once I chatted with me, I heard that I was listening twice as fast, and immediately came up with a pervert! I smiled and did not speak. Because I seldom say this is my dream, and I can do anything.

Now, when I listen to any materials, as long as there are no unfamiliar terms, there will be no obstacles. Even when I face five examiners from the EU Interpretation Division, I am a little nervous, however, even when I was nervous, they made me speak English. This is my purpose. You still remember that many people practiced very well at ordinary times. When the conference was held, the speaker finished speaking, but she was nervous and could not speak? It is because the number of exercises is too large at ordinary times that the field can offset the negative effects of tension.

At present, I have read some books on fast listening and found that speed 2 is not the speed limit, 2. 5 times faster, because 2. 5 times faster is the limit of People's hearing speed rebound, that is, exercise 2 frequently. 5 times faster, listen again 1 times faster, your hearing will not return to 1 times faster. You can continue. So I am currently in Exercise 2. 5 times faster BBC listening. I also hope that if you really want to engage in the same-pass industry, please invest more. Short-term Memory is easier for the narrative class, that is, the content of the review on both the top and the north, however, the content of the meeting is hard to remember, because there are many numbers, many categories, all need to take notes, and among the three large simultaneous pass professional examinations nationwide, only the interpretation division of the European Union has all the content of the meeting, and the figures, ages, and months are all very clear. At that time, what I shared was a nuclear issue, therefore, it is especially important to remember to practice news frequently. Here I am talking about notes. I only used a book to exercise my notes. <practice interpretation> Lin chaolun's book has been practiced for about five times, and an article is practiced every hour, in the end, we can basically perform 1. Playing the video at a speed of seven times and taking notes at the same time, but here I have a defect, that is, it is limited to the book mode. Every time I take notes for a minute, it is terrible, the reason is that the examiner of the EU Interpretation Division will not be constrained by his or her ability to assess his or her authenticity. I suffered losses in this exam. However, I usually practice 2 times faster listening and listening, which gives me a lot of self-confidence. After all, I use 1 for exercise notes. The speed was, so when she was reading at regular speed, although the time was longer, I still did well in the end. Therefore, we usually need to practice other long content. The specific skills are some of the methods used in the book. exercise will be effective by strictly following the steps. These are the general situations about listening. There are too many things to come up.

News and magazines -------- the understanding and memory of news are very important. I have recited about-VOA articles and BBC News, which are very skillful, <economists> I have probably recited about 100 articles, which are very helpful for me to understand news and magazines. After reciting them, you will find that the news framework is basically similar, the articles in the second industry are basically the same. You can translate, but it will take a lot of time, but this translation is good. I have insisted on translating one article every day for about three months, but later I gave up and started to transfer to direct translation, which greatly improved my reading speed and made my understanding more effective, you also know how to convert complex languages into simple languages to make it easier for you to understand. Therefore, I have very good translation capabilities. While reading The Economist, I suggest you accumulate every word that you are not skilled and unfamiliar with. These are all over the years, and it is difficult to solve the problem by relying on GRE or other methods. I have accumulated many words every day and will review them at last. So far.

Vocabulary --------- this is also my favorite part. In order to increase the vocabulary, I recited many dictionaries and I did not know the GRE vocabulary many times, anyway, I will review it every weekend. It is boring to recite the dictionary. This is a test of your perseverance. For the first time I recite the GRE, I spent one week and the wine was over, next, I will review bean once a week. Now I can recite it all in six hours. Instead of reading it, I will recite it. It indicates that I am very skilled. Why? I have guessed many words because of the GRE vocabulary. There is also a news classification word. You can find it in a bookstore outside the north for 12 yuan, about-words. This is simple, but as long as you are skilled, basically, there is no obstacle in listening to news, but it may still be a problem for you to write it all. Another dictionary is an interpretation dictionary. This dictionary is very important for Chinese and English translation. The British and American newspapers and periodicals have about 10000 million words, all of which are new words. You must also recite the TOEFL phrase, this is very useful, especially the expansion of phrases and the American Dictionary of spoken language. It is of great help to better understand economists and improve their oral skills and understand English culture.

The above are all good dictionaries. Every one of them is familiar with English, English, and Chinese. And often review. The process of reciting dictionaries is boring. You often want to give up when you have a hard time. At this time, I want to tell you why many people cannot succeed, it's because, like you, this is the most critical time of weakness. Whether you stick to it or not depends on you. When you fall down for the next weakness, you need to tell yourself that there will actually be several others who are as good as you, who have overcome the first level of resistance, but also fall down this time, it's hard to stick to it. If you stick to it, you decide to encourage yourself on your own. The key is whether you like this industry. If you just see a high salary, I think you are a waste of time. One day, you will regret spending so much time doing things you don't like. In the end, it's hard for you to do well because you don't like it!

In the past year, I have never had a rest. I have used words or dictionaries for all holidays. On weekends, you can recite GRE words or other words.

Every day is basically 18 hours of learning time.

It is important to get up at AM, run, exercise, and exercise taijiquan to keep your body and mind healthy.

At, you must go to bed, eat, and so on.

So I have never been ill this year.

I briefly described my preparations for the exam. The next step is to accept the exam. In fact, the exam outside of Beijing proves that I have made sufficient preparations and some shortcomings. In the exam outside the north, I had to pass the total score, and the English score was also very high. However, I had a political score of 2 points, and the result was conceivable. I had no chance to go to the review, however, I was taken into consideration by the European interpretation division and accepted me. I posted a post to explain my examination process,

Http://jackyhuang1112.blog.hexun.com/9133481_d

In fact, the real story is that I only told me this morning when I gave a call to the teacher.

There are two parts in the initial test: one is the test and the other is the oral test. The oral test includes the communication between Chinese and English. At that time, because I did not know that I would pass in the oral exam for three minutes, I was very nervous. I made the English-Chinese pass into a repeat !!! Soon after I finished, I lost my earphones and heard the people around me speak Chinese. I was so stupid !!!!!!!!!

After that, the first year in my mind is complete. I have no drama or drama, but I still force myself to calm down. As a result, the communication between Chinese and English is okay, but after all, it is affected, after the next written test, I quickly handed in the paper and found the teacher to explain my situation. But he said, it is impossible for you to come back alone. Wait for the notification. I did not expect that after a few days, I was actually notified of the review. At that time, the joy was like knowing that the review passed. Due to the excitement, I also specially asked the teacher and the teacher, do you still remember to ask me, that is, the student who asked you after the first exam was completed? He said, why don't you remember, you are the only one in all the candidates who have made the interpreter into a record. No matter who you are, I remember it. After listening, I feel very grateful. I think, it was because I had a good test score and a good speech that I was given the opportunity to review.

The review results differ from the ones I told you later.

The review includes 4 discussions, self-introductions, impromptu speeches, on-site communications between English and Chinese, and on-site communications between Chinese and English. After each round, students are required to go out. All the examiners evaluate the score together and decide the score. This is very user-friendly.

Later, I called to know that I had a very good performance in the first three discussions. I was fluent in voice standards, responded quickly, and had a thorough understanding of international political affairs. I was very impressed with the examiner, even in the fourth round of the examination, the Chinese examiner who gave me the question whispered to the person next to me. Is it necessary? It seems that I have underestimated my strength, but I am not proud of it. There are more things to be done. These are just a simple start.

In fact, think about it. It's really strange in a person's life. What if it doesn't happen?

If I exclude me from the preliminary test because I made the interpreter into a repeat, just as I kicked me out because I lost two points in politics, will I still have a chance to repeat ???

Can I still be one of the lucky ones if I cannot try again?

So what will I experience next year? Will I be as energetic as I am now?

A person's life is amazing. Maybe many things are doomed, and time will let us learn to grow. Now we may only accept everything.

Later, for the sake of the interpreter, I held a forum called "interpretation of the whole world", indicating that the interpreter is the interpreter of the whole world.

It is hoped that all those who are looking for interpreting dreams will not hesitate.
