2019年的PTE考试在各方面都有所改变和相对应的提升，今天就来逐一分析一下各部分的调整和趋势以及同学们需要准备的方向。

首先Examination policy方面，根据最新的考试规则所有长袖的外套都不能带进考场，考试系统和设备都比较新，屏幕很大方便同学阅读，一个考场一共可以做10位考试的同学，考试会配备降噪耳塞，说话声音如果过大test administrator会进场提示考试降低音量，耳机与曼拓机房配备耳机一样，建议同学们练习时佩戴耳机以提前适应考试的状态。

系统有了一些新的更改，比如一开始考试马上就是调试麦克风和音量的界面，在口语考试前不再留有太多额外的时间，整体考试时长大约在2小时40分钟作左右。

考试耳机还是型号Plantronics Audio 655，曼拓机房均有配备

经过对2019年截至目前的PTE各个考场考试分析结合大量8炸9炸学员的反馈，对于5月份的PTE考试预测还是以稳定的旧题与新题相交叉为主，综合考量出现大量新题和旧题彻底替换掉的可能性并不大，WFD方面新题频率接近每个月新增20-30道题的频率，现以更新至600句以上，但是此部分还是命中率最高的题型，因此本次讲座特意对5月份的WFD进行了集中预测精选出高频110句（详情请见Part 3），请同学们着重复习。

另外对于口语和听力部分还是有大量的老题命中，常规图表题和flow chart还是现阶段考试的大热，所以复习阶段打好基础的同时还是不要忘了在老师的指点下进行常规大量的练习，魔鬼训练营的课上练习讲义都是精选经典考试题目并不断进行调整更新，进而适应每个月考试的状态。

我们再来重新回顾一下2019年的各个部分需要注意的考试重点：

Speaking需要注意一下几点：

1.Pronunciation(要求清晰标准，不要过度stress every word, 自然模仿贴近native speaker)

2. Oral fluency (语速稳定，不能一味图快)

3. Appropriate content （内容的完整性，不要有停顿和空白）

由于口语部分的各项占分比重中repeat sentence的题目数量最多且同时考察了发音，流利度和内容，因此不论是65分还是79分的同学都不应忽视这个题型。

Writing需要注意一下几点：

1.WFD占据30%左右的分数

2. Contents（SWT的内容点是否有全覆盖，essay的结构和内容是否贴近主题）

3. Grammar（SWT和essay的写作方法）

4. Logical structure （是否有运用到合理的模板和outline）

5. written discourse（连接词和段落分段准确）

6. vocabulary （appropriate choices以及合理拓展）

Reading需要注意一下几点：

1.Time allocation（平均2.5分钟一道题）

2. 占分型题目（fib扣写作分数，re order 和 fib）

3. vocabulary（主要以区分近义词和明确词条意群是否恰当为主，高难词汇分布较少）

4. 题目难度系数和分值成正比

5. FIB考察写作的部分多了考察语法题目，详情参见test plus练习题样例

Listening需要注意一下几点：

1.SST旧题出现频率较高（以17年左右旧题为主）

2. FIB和highlight incorrect words难度变大

3. WFD占据听力总分40%左右

4. 未完成题目扣分严重

5. 听力音频时长每道题平均1min以上

6. 注意平衡选择题做题时长
