对于口语，和别人讲话会紧张，缺乏信心。
对于阅读，词汇量不够。
对于写作，语言逻辑不准确。
对于听力，缺乏Aussie 音的训练，只听PR 也无济于事。。。

还有就是过于主观，比如”政府制定政策，所以对人民生活水平负责“这里比较生硬。
Google了一篇相关文章，注意这里的长短句搭配和对于钱的多次不一样的表达。还有具体、详尽的例子关于对人类有划时代影响的伽利略和达尔文的研究。买阿司匹林的例子又是多么贴近生活，论证让人有无处躲藏无法抗辩的感觉。设想这篇文章在辩论赛中是你的反方，看起来多么不容辩驳啊。

7分远不是最高境界，改掉以上硬伤估计就差不多了，之后精雕细琢不过是锦上贴花了。

倒不是说语法的问题，概念有点乱啊

This is a meeting regarding torts and Negligent Misstatement.

A tort is a civil wrong in common law jurisdiction which causes someone else's loss or injuries.

[In contrast, negligent misstatement must be proven on the balance of probabilities. ] - 这里不对啊，torts 也是要prove on the balance of probabilities. 而且negligent misstatement 的定义也没有出来。

A relevant case of Negligent Misstatement is Alexander v Cambridge Credit Corporation (1987) in which initially the auditors were found to be negligent, yet they are not negligent due to a recession which broke the chain of causation.  - 这里也不对。initially found to be negligent, 是lower court finding 么？然后higher court 推翻了？如果是不同的court要说清楚。可以说 in which the auditors were found to be negligent in the court of xxx. But the High Court overturned the previous decision and found the auditors to be not negligent on the basis that the chain of causation was broken by the recession.

以下这段要附上一个跟negligent misstatement 有关系的新闻：
Refer to one legal action in an Australian Court that has been reported in the newspaper. Attached herewith a printed copy for your perusal.  - 这个直接说refer to an Australian case on this issue. Attached is a printed copy for your review.

Lastly, in accordance with the compliance requirements, staff should regularly check the website below to keep updated with the legislation regulating negligent misstatement and small business.

Please follow the link below:

Texters refer to markers/highlighters.
This is Aussie slang (so it is pronounced "tex-tah").

例句
Can you pass me that texter so I can highlight this passage?

在该例句中，texter指莹光笔highlighter。

I heard this song this morning in my work place and it again brought huge nostalgic feeling to me. I couldn't help humming it along the whole morning. It is such a beautiful song that every time I hear it it always stings my eye. The song is very Bob Dylan but it is actually the most famous song by Billy Joel.

[youtube]gxEPV4kolz0[/youtube]

It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
The regular crowd shuffles in
There's an old man sitting next to me
Making love to his tonic and gin

He says, "Son can you play me a memory
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's sad and it's sweet
And I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes."

Sing us a song you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feeling alright

Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
He gets me my drinks for free
And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
But there's someplace that he'd rather be

He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me."
As a smile ran away from his face
"Well, I'm sure that I could be a movie star
If I could get out of this place."

Now Paul is a real estate novelist
Who never had time for a wife
And he's talking with Davy, who's still in the Navy
And probably will be for life

And the waitress is practicing politics
As the businessmen slowly get stoned
Yes they're sharing a drink they call loneliness
But it's better than drinking alone

Sing us a song you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feeling alright

It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
And the manager gives me a smile
'Cause he knows that it's me they've been coming to see
To forget about life for a while

And the piano it sounds like a carnival
And the microphone smells like a beer
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
And say, "Man what are you doing here?"

Sing us a song you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feeling alright

自上周“会计移民名额减半”的消息一出，四处哗然。
好不容易凑够60分的都开始想要65；刚刚毕业的人开始向中介求助移民之路；一夜之间，想走独立技术移民的毕业生都基本做出了相同的决定——雅思、Naati、PY报！报！报！交出这数额不小的一笔学费对于学生来说与其说是肉痛，还不如说是给自己的一颗定心丸。钱花出去，PR应该就不远了！心里美美哒！

可人生是现实的！事实是残酷的！不对事实进行分析、不为未来调整状态；定心丸可能把你变成温水青蛙，最终离目标越来越远。此贴谨献给能够独立生活却无力独立思考的留学生，希望你们在服下定心丸的同时也能让自己做好准备。下面我们有一些真实案例来分析一下PY、Naati和雅思的难度系数。

                               
登录/注册后可看大图

PY
先说PY课程，没什么风险。只要上一些工作理论课，坚持一年，轻松拿5分。优点：有可能会得到相关工作经验、甚至少量工作机会。缺点：时间长，也许等不到你拿到5分政策又变了，或者名额用完了。

Naati
有关Naati考试的难度如何，真的是众说纷纭。小编跟大家分享两个自己身边朋友的真实案例。
A女生：国内名牌大学英语专8毕业，没有上任何培训班；自己在家啃辅导书、参加外部考试，一次通过3级笔译。
B男生：Master毕业为拿TR考了6次雅思，终于在一次复议中过了4个6。当时心想自己考到4个7的概率基本上跟买彩票一个节奏，就决定先上Naati，如果过了再上个PY就成了。在翻译学院几个月的课程期间，他很少缺勤。老师布置的练习、作业也都是按时按量完成。最后考试68，不够70；参加补考，还是68。“已经很接近了”他想，“如果有道题判错了呢？” 办公室里，老师拿出他的考卷，当着他的面一个个红圈扣分点加和一遍，表示计算无误，实在是爱莫能助。“两次考试，两次都只差2分，这是巧合还是故意？”，他想起刚入学时的期许、咨询人员的承诺、这么长时间以来的付出，难免胸口郁结，怒气冲冲找到学校负责人多次理论，均以无理取闹为由驳回。这时单独上PY没有意义；重新读一次Naati重新考试时间也不允许，他最后还是掉头回来考雅思。终于苍天不负苦心人，在签证快到期的前一个月，他终于考出4个7。就连让中国学生很头疼的写作，他都能稳定上7，甚至考过两次8分！当然，这其中的艰辛可想而知。

从这两个例子中，我们可以总结出几个教训：
1. 只学技巧、不提高英语基础，无论雅思还是Naati，通过率保证会是一样的低。请不要以为你去上课就理应考过。就算完成了作业、学习能力不行、不会总结、不会吸收，就算校内考试也没办法保你通过。
2. 考试成功的钥匙永远掌握在自己手里，跟你上不上辅导班并没有绝对联系。
3. 就算曾经英语差，只要肯努力、踏实学习、坚定目标，最终会拿到你要的成绩。
我相信这样的例子，你身边就有不少。这些例子都是前人血泪的教训、蕴含着宝贵的经验。我们要学着借用事例对比自我进行分析，就能少走一些弯路。如果觉得自己不是那些交了钱保准能过的学生，现在加油还来得及。

IELTS
雅思到底有多难？先来看雅思的官方数据——雅思7分中国人的通过率为9%，但请注意！这只是总分为7，而不是4个7哦！也就是说总分7.5的那4%的人才是主流考出4个7的数据，但这个数据同比远远低于印度。

更为震惊的是：根据IDP Australia给出的官方数据，并经过莫纳什大学计量经济专业人士计算得出——中国考生雅思4个7通过率仅在0.8%-1.6%！这意味着，如果你还不是那1%的人，请准备好付出99分的努力！

再来谈谈雅思培训：以墨尔本为例，雅思机构通常的费用是1k左右，配置是“全项+名师VIP+保过”；可是如果PY+Naati 的10分培训费已经高达近2万，这雅思机构的这4个7保过能+10分，1k是不是卖的有点便宜？去年澳洲独立技术移民人数接近4万，其中印度占据霸主地位，移民人数最多，而中国占了不到1万人。这1万人里，从中国本地申请的就占了一小半；再加上一些不考雅思、靠其他项目加分的人，剩下在澳洲真正4个7的通过者可能不及千人，这也符合雅思官方数据。所以当他们说“保过”的时候，指的是什么呢？不能提高英语实力的培训到底怎么保过呢？

英语基础怎么提高
作为一个以学生为本的教育机构，我们护航计划四步进阶课程从提高学生语言能力为出发点，帮你稳步达到雅思4个7；学员学习一套课程，即可应对IELTS、PTE两种考试。护航计划四步进阶课程打破传统雅思培训模式，把听、说、读、写结合为一个整体，让学生从听力、阅读的练习中学习并提高逻辑、口语、写作能力；集中训练帮你稳固基础、攻克雅思。我们阅读练习还可以大大提高你对于英语文章的理解，通过笔译考试更有把握！你要做的是要有求知的学习心态、配合完成作业，我们就有百分之一百的信心和能力教你如何考过4个7，稳拿10分。

图南英语负责人李想老师是墨尔本最资深的雅思老师，在8年的教学实践中，创造出无数个的雅思届奇迹——“6个小时课程，学员写作6.5到8”、“4个5水平入学，4个7成绩毕业”、“20个人的大班学员100%通过4个7”！甚至就连考了20多次失去信心的人，在经过李老师几周点拨之后也成功考出4个7！

护航计划四步进阶课程的特点：
1. 满足各层次考生需求，从4个5到4个7，甚至4个8；
2. 随时报名随时开课，无需等待；
3. 进阶式教学，帮你查漏补缺、稳扎稳打、步步为赢；
4. 思路培养配合夯实基础，全面提高；
5. 告别技巧、不靠运气，从根本提高英语水平；
6. 一次投入，应对雅思、PTE两种考试！

account for the fact	This may account for the fact that sometimes the rate of apprearance of growth nuclei seems first to increase to a maximum before dropping off in accord with the simple theory where n is supposed constant.
stem from the fact	The mixed findings may stem from the fact that previous studies have used the firm or business unit as a unit of analysis, ignoring the fact that ambidextrous organisations might differentiate coordination mechanisams at the level of the organisation unit.
consider evidence	He argues that the disorder can be understood only by considering both the genetic evidence and the familial and societal pressures associated with schizophrenia's onset and course.

楼主分析的很有道理，我就属于书呆子法 钻研语法 因为年少时候学的很多都概念不清从而使自己讲出的英语自己听的懂老外似懂非懂。而且没有在短时间内有进步，就变得比较害羞。自认为单词量还不少，希望自己更努力学习英文，我也尊重它，想要热爱它，更想要运用它让我能享受在澳洲的生活。感谢鼓励。

I had the intention to discard the campaign proposal,  as there were times when it just seemed too much work on me.
Dux's accomplishment is inspirational and his courage and gritty effort have proven me with no cause for concern. It's now my turn to run the race and here I am!

Congratulations on Dux. You're the very first one to reach 100-post, a true role model and a tower of strength to many.
I have faith in you that you can surely achieve whatever you're determined to, since the self-discipline and courage that you've demonstrated on this accomplishment is the promise to all.
You'll receive a medal (an image one)from this campaign committee in a few days.

英语水平要想提高，就要多留心多学习，少些想当然。
拿这么一例来讲 “What a shame!”  有多少人会误以为是“真丢人”，“好没面子”，“真不要脸”这样的话。其实不然，“What a shame!" 不过是句安慰人的话了，跟"What a pity！" 一个意思。
Fig. an expression of consolation meaning That's too bad. (Can also be used sarcastically.)
例句：
Bill: I'm sorry to tell you that the cat died today.     Mary: What a pity!
Mary: The cake is ruined!       Sally: What a shame!

再如，
我在给就业机构做口译时，一位工作人员跟客户讲了下面的话：
"Your placement consultant caught a bad cold. She cannot come today. What a shame!"
就业顾问因为患感冒不能来上班了，真遗憾！

你要是只从shame有关”羞耻、耻辱、脸面、丢人”这些概念去理解，你就会奇怪--人家只不过得了感冒，有什么可丢人的呢？

【18】Song to share -  How bad can I be?

[youtube]YYmrPn1CnzY[/youtube]

How ba-a-a-ad can I be? I'm just doing what comes naturally.
How ba-a-a-ad can I be? I'm just following my destiny.
How ba-a-a-ad can I be? I'm just doing what comes naturally.
How ba-a-a-ad can I be? How bad can I possibly be?
Well there's a principle of nature (principle of nature)
That almost every creature knows.
Called survival of the fittest (survival of the fittest)
And check it this is how it goes.
The animal that eats gotta scratch and fight and claw and bite and punch.
And the animal that doesn't, well the animal that doesn't winds up someone else's lu-lu-lu-lu-lunch (munch, munch, munch, munch, munch)
I'm just sayin'.
How ba-a-a-ad can I be? I'm just doing what comes naturally.
How ba-a-a-ad can I be? I'm just following my destiny.
How ba-a-a-ad can I be? I'm just doing what comes naturally
How ba-a-a-ad can I be? How bad can I possibly be?
There's a principle in business (principle in business)
That everybody knows is sound.
It says the people with the money (people with the money)
Make this ever-loving world go 'round
So I'm biggering my company, I'm biggering my factory, I'm biggering my corporate sign.
Everybody out there, take care of yours and me? I'll take care. of. Mine, mine, mine, mine, mine. (shake that bottom line)
Let me hear you say 'smogulous smoke' (smogulous smoke)
Schloppity schlop (schloppity schlop)
Complain all you want, it's never ever, ever, ever gonna stop.
Come on how bad can I possibly be?
How ba-a-a-ad can I be? I'm just building an economy.
How ba-a-a-ad can I be? Just look at me pettin' this puppy.
How ba-a-a-ad can I be? A portion of proceeds goes to charity.
How ba-a-a-ad can I be? How bad can I possibly be? Let's see.
(How ba-a-a-ad can I be?) All the customers are buying.
(How ba-a-a-ad can I be?) And the money's multiplying.
(How ba-a-a-ad can I be?) And the PR people are lying.
(How ba-a-a-ad can I be?) And the lawyers are denying.
(How ba-a-a-ad can I be?) Who cares if a few trees are dying?
(How ba-a-a-ad can I be?) This is all so gratifying.
How bad.
How bad can this possibly be!?
