ＴＯＥＦＬ ＩＴＰ

Question

ＴＯＥＦＬ ＩＴＰこんにちは。留学を目指しているのですが、交換留学の条件として、
ＴＯＥＦＬ ＩＴＰ５００点以上必要です。

先月のスコアは

リスニング ４７点
ライティング ５０点
リーディング ４３点

で４６７点でした。

恥ずかしながら、まったく勉強せずに挑んだ点数です。。。
これが、いいのか悪いのかもわかりません・・・

どこが強化する必要があるのか、また効果的な方法を教えてください。
当方、単語力が少ないので単語帳を買って必死に覚えているところです。
リスニングのためには、ラジオ英会話などをしようかな、と思っています。

来月にある試験までに５００点をとりたいのですが、
可能でしょうか？

どこを強化すべきなのか、また効果的な勉強方、おすすめの問題集等教えてください。

ちなみに、英検２級を高校三年生の時にとりました。去年です。

補足

大体の意味をつかむのに7分くらいですかね・・・汗
わからない単語もあります。

Answer 1

目標は2分くらいです。全部の単語を読まずに斜め読みできるくらいにしましょう。 要となる言葉を読むようにします。
日本語の新聞でも隅から隅まで一字一句漏らさずに読まないでしょう? それがニュースの読み方です。
がんばってください。 応援します。 失礼ですがまだあまりnativeと自然にしゃべれないですよね？ シャドーイングもまだのレベルかと？
ラジオ英会話ではお勧めは実践ビジネス英会話ですね。でもきつかったら入門ビジネス英会話でもいいかも知れません。
あまりたくさん手を出さないで貴女のレベルにあったものを見つけて集中してやるのがこつです。
それでは失礼します。

MANILA, Philippines – The Philippine government has appealed for international help after massive flooding set off by a tropical storm at the weekend left at least 140 dead.

Defense Secretary Gilbert Teodoro said Monday that help from foreign governments will ensure that the Philippine government can continue relief work following massive flooding set off by Tropical Storm Ketsana.

Authorities are concerned there could be more bad weather on the way.

Teodoro said government forecasters have monitored a low pressure area over the Pacific that could develop into a storm and possibly hit the country later this week.

He said at least 140 people were killed and 32 missing after Saturday's storm caused widespread flooding in Manila and other northern parts of the country.

THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.

MANILA, Philippines (AP) — Rescuers pulled the dead from swollen rivers Monday and thousands were without drinking water, food and power as the death toll from the worst flooding in the northern Philippines in more than four decades climbed to 100.

Officials expected the toll to rise as rescuers penetrate villages blocked off by floating cars and debris since Tropical Storm Ketsana swept through over the weekend, leaving 32 missing.

Overwhelmed authorities were trying to verify scores of unconfirmed deaths, including in several metropolitan Manila cities and nearby Rizal province, where about 99 more people reportedly died, Defense Secretary Gilbert Teodoro said.

As tens of thousands of residents began a massive cleanup and the storm left the Philippines, the extent of devastation became clearer — mud-covered communities, car-choked streets and huge numbers of villagers without drinking water, food and power.

In Manila's suburban Marikina city, a sofa hung from electric wires.

Resident Jeff Aquino said floodwaters rose to his home's third floor at the height of the storm Saturday, when it dumped more than a month's worth of rain in just 12 hours.

Aquino, his wife, three young children and two nephews spent that night on their roof without food and water, mixing infant formula for his 2-year-old twins with the falling rain.

"We thought it was the end for us," Aquino said.

The government has declared a "state of calamity" in metropolitan Manila and 25 storm-hit provinces, including many that have not flooded before, allowing officials to use emergency funds for relief and rescue.

More than 450,000 people were affected by the storm, including some 115,000 brought to about 200 schools, churches and other evacuation shelters, officials said. Troops, police and volunteers have been able to rescue more than 7,900 people so far, Teodoro said.

He said government welfare officials have begun focusing on providing food, medicine and other necessities to those in emergency shelters.
