4 90%的考生，只使用“单”词，而不使用“词串”
不会使用“词串”的考生，毫不夸张地讲，得分一定会被扣0.5-1分。事实上，不会“词串”恰恰是中国考生的致命伤，它除了影响你的词汇分，还会影响流利分和速度分。让我们来举例说明：
“单”词答题
“词串”答题

5 99%的考生，只使用“一种语法”，而不使用“多种语法”
多数中国考生，只使用单一的语法结构，即主谓宾结构，如We must protect the environment. 而很少使用多种语法，如被动语态、强调句、虚拟语态、疑问句、感叹句等，比如说：
(1) A lot of measures have been adopted in China to best protect the environment。
(2) What can be more important than environment?
(3) What would happen to us if nothing were done to protect the environment?
