英語閱讀科學發展

① 英語閱讀理解有哪些基本的方法和技巧

老師和家長在指導孩子閱讀之前，不妨先了解一下孩子真實的英語水平才可以做到「對症下葯」。幫助孩子選擇適合他們的英語讀物比跟風閱讀要有用，合適難度的書籍才能幫助孩子逐步提升閱讀水平，長時間閱讀不適合自己的書籍反而打擊孩子的閱讀自信。同時，家長和老師還需要及時了解孩子讀書後是否真的能夠理解書籍內容，避免囫圇吞棗，對書籍內容一知半解。

正確的英文閱讀，首先就是要先弄清楚孩子所處的閱讀水平，最好的原版閱讀培養體系需要能夠利用大數據精準檢測並定位學生閱讀能力，實現在分級閱讀中用英語測評測試結果幫助制定指導目標。

其次就是選擇適合孩子水平的讀物。再進行目標的設置，並根據目標進行閱讀並及時完成閱讀，養成閱讀習慣。

最後進行閱讀練習來得到閱讀練習反饋並再次進行能力測試來看閱讀練習的成效。

第一步、英語能力測評，測試報告指導

睿樂生Renaissance STAR測試系統（Star Reading ）是針對K12學生進行閱讀評級以及監測學生閱讀成長進度的一款閱讀能力測評軟體。老師可以利用閱讀測試工具，快速地摸清學生水平，掌控學生的閱讀難度、實施個性化的教學，實現因材施教！

這樣的一個閉環式英語閱讀能力培養體系是科學化和系統化的，然而真正能做到這樣的閱讀體系屈指可數！睿樂生的產品正可以幫助老師和家長達到這一點。

第二步、設定閱讀目標，養成規律性閱讀習慣

做完測試，了解了孩子的閱讀能力後，就需要睿樂生Renaissance的AR分級閱讀體系出馬。AR分級閱讀系統可以幫助大家找到符合自己閱讀難度的書籍。

第三步、閱讀練習後進行反饋再次進行英語閱讀能力測試

孩子在閱讀書籍後，可以用AR分級閱讀進行閱讀理解發測試，及時掌握孩子閱讀情況，這樣一來，老師和家長就不再會有「孩子們讀了這些書都讀懂了嗎」這樣的困惑。

當孩子完成一定時間的閱讀和AR Quiz後，不妨讓孩子再次進行STAR測試看看最新的英語閱讀能力進展，這樣一來，可以實時掌握孩子的水平發展進程。

We are all busy talking about and using the Internet (互聯網), but how many of us know the history of the Internet?
Many people are surprised when they find that the Internet was set up in the 1960s. At that time, computers were large and expensive. Computer networks (網路) didn't work well. If one computer in the network broke down, then the whole network stopped. So a new network system had to be set up. It should be good enough to be used by many different computers. If part of the network was not working, information could be sent through another part. In this way computer network system would keep on working all the time.
At first the Internet was only used by the government, but, in the early 1970s, universities, hospitals and banks were allowed to use it too. However, computers were still very expensive and the Internet was difficult to use. By the start of the 1990s, computers became cheaper and easier to use. Scientists had also developed software that made 'surfing' (瀏覽) the Internet more convenient.
Today it is easy to get on-line (上網) and it is said that millions of people use the Internet everyday. Sending e-mail is more and more popular among students.
The Internet has now become one of the most important parts of people's life.
判斷下列句子是否符合短文內容，符合的用「T」表示，不符合的用 「F」表示。
l. The Internet has a history of less than thirty years.
T F
2. In the 1960s computer networks went wrong easily.
T F
3. Computers become cheaper so that many hospitals and banks were allowed to use them.
T F
4. People didn't have enough software to get on-line conveniently until the early 1990s.
T F
參考答案： 1．F 2．T 3．F 4．T
講解：
1．第二段開頭講互聯網是在60年代建立的，故至今歷史已超過30年。
2．文中第二段闡明計算機網路工作狀況不好(didn't work well)。
3．第三段中說明大學、醫院等都被允許使用電腦，然而，計算機仍然很貴，並且網路很難使用。
4．由第三段最後幾句介紹可知，到90年代，計算機便宜且好用。科學家也發展了軟體使網上瀏覽更方便。而本題干用了not…until句型，譯為「直到90年代早期人們才有足夠的軟體上網」。

「Cool」 is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings.
「Cool」 can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything. When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say 「It's cool.」You may think, 「He's so cool,」 when you see your favourite footballer.
We all maximize (擴大) the meaning of 「cool」. You can use it instead of many words such as 「new」 or 「surprising」. Here's an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall (瀑布) they had visited. On one student's paper was just the one sentence, 「It's so cool」. Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.
But the story also shows a scarcity (缺乏) of words. Without 「cool」, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility (可信性). Can you think of many other words that make your life as colourful as the word 「cool」? I can. And I think they are also very cool.
1. We know that the word 「cool」 has ________.
A. only one meaning B. no meanings
C. many different meanings D. the same meaning
2. In the passage, the word 「express」 means「________」.
A. see B. show C. know D. feel
3. If you are ________ something, you may say, 「It's cool.」
A. interested in B. angry about
C. afraid of D. unhappy with
4. The writer takes an example to show he is _________ the way the word is used.
A. pleased with B. strange to
C. worried about D. careful with
5. In the passage, the writer suggests (暗示) that the word 「cool」_________.
A. can be used instead of many words
B. usually means something interesting
C. can make your life colourful
D. may not be as cool as it seems
參考答案 ： 1．C 2．B 3．A 4．C 5．D
講解：
1．見首句。
2．由「express」前後詞義關系可推斷出是「表達」的意思，與「show」同義。
3．由第二段首句可知。
4．由例子中的學生用cool 一詞概括出他的所有感受，知cool詞義的擴大會導致語言中詞彙的缺乏，是令人擔憂的。
5．結合第4題的答案可做出選擇。
參考答案 ： 1. A 2. D 3. A 4. D 5. C

If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame, and few of us know that it is just his own fault.
Have you ever found that some people can' t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised.
So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practise remembering.
1. The main reason for one's poor memory is that his parents have poor memories.
T F
2. If you don't use your arms or legs for some time, they will become strong.
T F
3. A good memory comes from more practice.

4. Some people can't read or write, but they have better memories, because they have saved trouble.

One of the things I always believe is that no matter how bad something is, you can take something positive out of it. The one time I wasn』t sure of that was on September 11.
I usually wake up a 6:30 or 7:00 in the morning. That day, I happened to wake up earlier. I turned on the TV and I saw that a plane had crashed (撞擊) into the North Tower of the World Trade Center. My first reaction (反應) was that it was a terrible accident. Then I saw another plane fly into the South Tower and I realized that I was witnessing (目擊) an act of terrorism.
My wife and I spent the day watching the terrible pictures over again. When I watched family members looking for their loved ones, the pain in their eyes was something I would never forget. I couldn』t understand how something this terrible could have happened.
It wasn』t until a few weeks after September 11 that I began to see that perhaps some good did come from this tragedy (悲劇). People seem different now, more understanding, more tolerant(寬容的). Little things that seemed to be such a trouble before are no longer big things. Personally, I am more tolerant than I was. I realize life is too short, and too precious(珍貴的), to let myself get worried over small things. I』ve learned also that you can』t take things for granted. Things change in the blink of an eye. People go to work and don』t come back. One moment they』re living and the next minute they』re not. And, it doesn』t matter who you are, there is nothing you can do about it. We never know when our time here will be over, so we all need to make the most of every minute we have.
You try to learn from what happened. You can』t be used up by it. You can』t live by it. All you can do is just live.
1. The word 「positive」 in the passage probably means ______.
A. terrible B. bad C. good D. real
2. What did the writer see after he turned on the TV that morning?
A. A fire starting B. A plane flying
C. A terrible accident D. An act of terrorism.
3. From September 11, the writer had realized that___________.
A. people should make the most of every minute they have
B. he has become less tolerant towards others
C. he should get worried about little things
D. life is too short to care about others.
4. What』s the best title of this passage?
A. A Report about September 11
B. The Tragedy of September 11
C. September 11 and My Family
D. September 11 and My Turn.

加州公眾企業雇員退休協會（加退協）挺身擔綱投資者權利的第一捍衛者，他們會定期挑出一些全國最大公司內的糟糕經營者，列入年度的公司控管核心名單。每當加退協吭聲時，帳下經營著1530億美元的華爾街都會側耳傾聽。但是，這個全國最大的退休基金會還從沒有像12月16日那樣逮住這么大的一條魚，它向美國紐約證券交易所及其屬下的七個會員公司發起挑戰，指控他們具有欺詐行為，宣稱交易所疏忽自己的監控職守，允許七個會員公司在損害投資者利益的情況下進行證券交易。

這次行動對紐約證券交易所的新任（臨時）主席John Reed來說，不蒂當頭一棒。這位前花旗銀行董事長兼CEO九月才加盟交易所，當時，長期擔綱交易所領導工作的Richard Grasso因報酬太高而引起公憤，被迫辭職。

因為沒能將投資者的代表選入新組選的董事會，也因為未能將交易所的監控職能與日常經營有效區分，Reed遭到加退協及其它機構投資者的廣泛批評。加退協的訴訟表明，廣大投資者的不滿情緒沒有消退。Harrigan說：「因為Reed不採取行動，我們的希望整個破滅了。」

訴訟指控說，七個專營會員公司濫用或過分使用交易策略並從中獲益。這些目前並非非法的策略包括「penny jumping」（專營公司在兩個交易單中間介入，搶得差價），「front running」（根據從交易單中獲得的機密情報，搶在顧客前面交易）和「freezing」（穩住公司的交易單簿，以便公司能用自己的戶頭第一個交易）。

訴訟中的許多指控依據的是前不久公開的，由證券交易委員會對交易所進行的調查結果。根據訴訟，10月份的證券交易委員會的報告發現，「交易所的監控、調查程序中存在嚴重不足，包括對專營公司的累次犯規視而不見」。

這次訴訟突出的反映了機構投資者對交易體系的失望，該體系既便不要取消，至少需要更新。加州公司監管員Steve Westley（作為加退協的董事，參加了12月16日的記者招待會），不斷呼籲紐約證券交易所停止使用專營公司來方便交易的做法，轉而採用公開匹配交易雙方的制度。視而不見？Westley說：「沒有理由不採用全部自動化的交易。世界上每筆交易都是這么做的。證券交易所該進入21世紀了，從而撥去公眾心目中的疑雲：有不少侵犯投資者權益的內部交易。」

「解析」這是一道細節題，「Westley」將答案鎖定在文章末段。NYSE的問題，在Westley看來，出在過於依賴專營公司開展業務，故此答案為A.

25.「答案」A

「解析」這是一道主旨題。這是一篇新聞題文章，全文講述了加退協為了投資者的權益而將NYSE告上法庭，可見文章標題應為A（投資者權益的捍衛者）。D項Lawsuits加復數是不對的，予以排除。

Text 2譯文

多功能超級葯丸並不誇大其辭，而且減少高膽固醇、糖尿病及高血壓對心臟的潛在危害也能挽救不少生命，對醫葯公司而言也是有利可圖。用Pfizer公司的高血壓葯Norvasc和降低膽固醇的葯Lipitor組合而成的葯丸「具有巨大的潛力」，Shaojing Tong，一名來自Mehta Partners的分析師這么認為，他說，「一片葯丸具有雙重功能也極其方便」。

如果這種葯推廣開來，醫葯公司將獲得巨大受益。Pfizer公司的目標是盡可能多地將合格病人轉用這類組合葯。Norvasc的專利將在2007年過期，但公司可將它轉為超級葯丸的一部分，從而避免收入方面的損失。來自Cathay Financial的分析師Sena Lund說，Pfizer到2007年通過這種組合葯能賺到42億美元，從而補償Lipitor的銷售疲軟所帶來的損失，Lipitor的贏利到2007年將降到5億美元，而去年是8億美元。

Pfizer認為，用一顆葯丸治療兩個不同但卻嚴重的心血管疾病是有益的。Pfizer雙葯治療中心主任Craig Hopkinson指出，美國患有高血壓和高膽固醇的病人有2700萬，其中只有2％的人得到了充分的治療。服一片葯治兩種病能使更多的病人得到適當的治療，並有助於病人得到理想的救治。

Pfizer認為，醫生們也會樂於接受組合葯，因為它由兩種很成熟的葯品構成，醫生們對它們很熟悉。但是，斯坦福大學醫療中心心臟科咨詢部主任Dr. Stanley Rockson認為，固定劑量的組合葯丸對醫生們而言，是「一個有趣的十字路口」，醫生們接受的訓練往往要求他們「細心對待每個個別病例」。組合用葯對他們的針對不同個體採用不同療法是個挑戰。但他也說，病人能更好的接受該葯促使醫生們去接受嘗試這種葯丸。

有些醫生會持懷疑態度。波士頓大學醫學院的葯理學教授Dr. Irene Gavris則擔心說，「如果你想改變組合葯中一種葯的劑量，你可難辦了」。她說，她很願意給那些「已用葯有過一段時間的病人」使用這種組合葯，他們不太可能需要改變劑量。

通常，經濟決定天平的傾向。Gavris說，正在服用Lipitor和Norvasc的病人由於轉用該葯「能將他們的醫保費用減少一半」。這很重要。例如，控制高血壓可能需要三種或三種以上的葯物，病人的經濟負擔急劇增加，如果病人也想獲益——正如Pfizer和其他醫葯公司所宣稱的那樣——轉用超級葯丸對大家都有好處。

26.「答案」B

「解析」這是一道細節題。依據原文第二段可知，Pfizer可以通過使用組合葯來避免因為Norvasc專利到期可能引起的損失。所以答案為B.

27.「答案」B

「解析」這是一道是非判斷題。文章第三段講述了超級葯丸的種種好處，但並沒有說可以恢復病人失去的身體功能，所以B應是答案。

28.「答案」C

「解析」本題涉及段落的寫作意圖。第三段講述了病人對超級葯丸的接受態度，第四段主要講述醫生們可能的接受態度，所以答案為C.A項不對，因為本段內部並沒有進行對比。

29.「答案」D

「解析」這是一道涉及全文的推論題。文章探討了醫葯公司、病人、醫生等方面對超級葯丸的反應態度，可以推論，用葯的轉變是由許多因素來決定的，故答案為D.

30.「答案」A

「解析」這是一道態度題，問作者對超級葯丸所持的態度。根據文章開頭兩句及其整個文章的議論，不難看出作者對這種葯的態度還是贊同性的，故答案為A.選項C意為「（勉強地）容忍接受」，不太吻合文章作者的語氣，排除。

Text 3譯文

五年前的寒假，Donna and Phil Satow的就讀於亞利桑納大學的20歲的兒子自縊身亡，從那以後，夫妻倆就一直想知道自己忽略了什麼跡象，也向兒子的同學打聽。

深刻的思索讓人注意到了Ulifeline （www.ulifeline.org），大學生們可在學校登錄該網址咨詢問題。120多所高校使用該網址，並增添了些學校信息，130多萬大學生用學生證在該網站注冊。

「這是一個很不錯的網站，它能提高對自殺的警惕，減少對精神疾病的歧視，鼓勵人們尋求幫助，」Paul Grayson這么認為，他是紐約大學的咨詢服務部主任，一年前開始使用該網站的服務。

該網站的主要部件是Self-E-Valuator，這是杜克大學醫療中心開發的一種自測軟體，幫助學生判斷自己是否有抑鬱、自殺、厭食或葯物依賴這類危險。除了幫助學生，網站還匯編了大量學生的匿名數據，以便學校了解校園內的健康狀況。

網站還給學生用戶提供當地醫療服務鏈接，一份處方葯及其負效應的目錄，以及「詢問艾麗絲」的接入，後者是哥倫比亞大學開發的一個巨大的檔案庫，含有數百個對世界各地大學生匿名咨詢的答復。對那些為朋友擔心的學生而言，網站還有一個部分專門介紹自殺和抑鬱的種種徵兆。

然而很難評估這種服務的有效性，匿名在線服務甚至會起到消極作用。位於華盛頓的美國自殺學研究協會執行主任Dr. Lanny Berman就說，「這種網站咨詢不能代替互動的當面咨詢。」

Ulifeline首先會承認，網站咨詢不能取代真正的理療師。Ron Gibori，Ulifeline的執行主任就說，「我們的目的是幫助學生發現抑鬱跡象，然後指導他們去合適的地方治療。」

Mrs. Satow仍然關注著該網站，她稱之為「知識庫」，它本可以阻止她兒子Jed自殺的。她說，「如果Jed的同學知道抑鬱的徵兆，他們本可以發現Jed的問題的。」

31.「答案」D

「解析」這是一道寫作意圖題。第一段說道Satow一家的事情是為了引入文章的討論主題Ulifeline，所以答案為D.

32.「答案」C

「解析」這是一道細節題。依據文章2、3兩段，大學使用該網站的目的是鼓勵學生上網咨詢自己的精神抑鬱等問題，所以答案為C.

33.「答案」B

「解析」這是一道細節題。依據第五段可知，Go Ask Alice是一個給學生提供健康咨詢的問答庫，所以答案為B.

34.「答案」A

「解析」這是一道句意題。依據文章最後兩段的意思可知，網站固然可以提供咨詢，但真正充分的治療還得需要理療師。A項為此意，是正確選項。

35.「答案」C

「解析」這是一道推論題。根據末段的意思可以推測，Mrs. Satow一定非常認可該網站，所以答案為C.

Text 4譯文

「科學」和「技術」的意義，從一代到下一代都會發生深刻的變化，然而這兩個術語之間的相似之處遠遠多於其不同之處。兩者都含有思維特徵，兩者都涉及物質世界的因果關系，兩者皆用實驗性的研究方法，由此而得出的經驗性結果都可重復驗證。科學，至少在理論上，不太在乎結果的實用性，它更在乎普遍法則的創立，但實際上，科學和技術是密不可分的。兩者之間不同程度的相互影響可見於各種行業的歷史發展過程，諸如：化學、工程、物理、天文、土木、制陶以及其它行業。科學家和技術人員的研究活動的差異與下列因素有關：不同的教育要求、社會地位、方法、術語、獎勵方式、機構目標及職業目標，但縱觀歷史，許多「純」科學家既有理論建樹也有實用創新。

的確，科學是技術創新的理論基礎，以及純理論研究對工業文明的發展是不可或缺的這兩種說法都是錯誤的。大多數工業進步都與實驗室研究無關，機械、化工、天文、冶金、水利領域的基本工具及流程早在相關理論法則發現之前就已存在。例如，早在熱動力學解釋了蒸汽的原理之前，蒸汽發動機業已廣泛存在。

最近幾年，科學和技術之間的價值分歧越來越尖銳。科學進步的反對者是一直存在的，然而，現在有很多人對技術的恐懼甚於對科學的擔心。他們覺得，科學可視為是對永恆的自然法則的和平、客觀的探究，但現代社會中，技術的實際應用似乎有點失控。

許多科學史家們認為，技術是發達的工業文明的必然條件，他們也認為，過去幾百年的技術發展也已積累了可觀的動量。技術創新的速度以幾何級別在增長，遠遠超出了地理和政治的限定。這些技術創新改變了傳統的文化體制，往往帶來難以預料的社會後果。所以，技術既具有進步性也具有毀滅性。

36.「答案」C

「解析」這是一道細節題。依據原文第3句可知，科學和技術之間的相似之一便是研究方法的實驗性。因此答案為C.B項中casual不等於原文中的causal，排除。

37.「答案」B

「解析」這是一道是非判斷題。依據第2段首句，作者認為「科學是技術創新的理論基礎，以及純理論研究對工業文明的發展是不可或缺的這兩種說法都是錯誤的」，可見作者不贊同的是B項的說法，故B為答案。

38.「答案」A

「解析」這是一道例證題。第2段末句中，作者提到蒸汽發動機是為了反駁「理論研究對工業文明的發展是不可或缺的」這一觀點，故答案為A，A中「feed off」意為「靠…生存」。

39.「答案」D

「解析」這是一道句意題。引號句的意思在末段得到了充分的說明，「技術創新改變了傳統的文化體制，往往帶來難以預料的社會後果。所以，技術既具有進步性也具有毀滅性」，這就是所謂的「失去控制」，可見答案為D.

40.「答案」D

「解析」這是一道詢問歷史學家態度的態度題。末段中，歷史學家們對技術的發展態度具有肯定和否定的兩面，所以答案為D.「有保留地認可」。

Part B

「總體分析」

本篇介紹的是美國人對選舉的興趣日漸減少，並分析了相關的幾個原因。第一段揭示事情本身，後幾段分析原因。就本篇而言，對文章前後結構層次的把握非常重要。

41

本題考察段落內部的邏輯聯系，空格的下文說「But it『s time to stop blaming the citizens」，可見上文必然說到有人指責普通公民們不熱衷於美國的政治選舉。故答案為E.

42.B

本題考察考生對文章的總體結構的把握能力。既然第二段末句說「Candidates， public officials， and journalists are not giving Americans the type of campaign they deserve」，而且第三段又說到了officials，下文又將說到journalists，可以斷定，本段應說「candidates」，即「leadership」，故B項為答案。

43.D

本題考察段落內部的邏輯理解，注意相應的詞彙表達。既然空格前講的是journalists對政治家的正面言論不感興趣，棄置編輯室地板，而攻擊性的言論卻被直播（Attack sound bites get airtime； positive statements land on the cutting-room floor），那麼可以推論，D項是最符合邏輯的展開內容，用詞也密切相關（get more time on the network newscasts）。

44.G

本題涉及段落內部邏輯的把握。既然上文說「we interviewed 100，000 Americans to discover why they『re disengaging from elections」，那麼答案為G，也就很符合邏輯了。

45.F

本題同樣涉及段內邏輯，既然上文說「Officials unfailingly urge citizens to do your ty and vote. Yet， these officials embrace policies that make it harder to do that」（官員們催使公民行使職責，參加選舉，但另一方面又制定政策，使公民們很難參加投票選舉），那麼符合邏輯的答案必定是F項了。

Part C

46.「結構分析」這是一個簡單句，結構不復雜。

「疑難詞彙」詞彙「disproportionately」的翻譯不必拘泥原文，可靈活翻譯為「激…」；另，「without shrinking…」部分的理解要結合上文准確翻譯。

「參考譯文」技術的發展和金融的自由化使得極端富裕的家庭數量激增，卻沒能相應地減少貧困家庭的數量。

47.「結構分析」冒號前後為並列結構。後半部分有兩個「faster than…」的並列的比較狀語從句。

「疑難詞彙」冒號前的兩個「cause」翻譯要靈活處理。

「參考譯文」正是這些根本原因衍生出嚴重後果，從而造成更糟的結果：富裕國家出口的工業產品及服務的價格增長速度遠遠快於貧窮國家出口的商品及服務的價格，比沒有多少國際貿易的貧窮國家所生產的商品和服務的價格增長速度就更快了。

48.「結構分析」「to whom」引導的整個是定語從句，修飾前面的「young men」；定語從句中兩個「to threaten…」並列，做「means」的補足語。

「疑難詞彙」「means」意為「手段」。

「參考譯文」結果導致許多年輕人失業憤懣，而新的信息技術則給了他們威脅社會穩定的手段，甚至可以威脅富裕國家的社會穩定。

49.「結構分析」「Why」引導的是主句，「if」引導的是從句。

「疑難詞彙」主句中「subscribed to」意為「同意，贊同」；從句中「if a case can be made that…」可意譯為「如果說…」，其中「case」意為「情況」：「gains」意譯為「成果」。

「參考譯文」如果說商品和資本市場自由化的成果往往集聚到發展中國家的高端收入階層的手中，那發展中國家的精英階層為何又贊同西方國家、企業及多邊組織所宣揚的全球化議程呢？

50.「結構分析」分號前後為並列結構。

「疑難詞彙」「fixed」根據上下文可譯為「解決，改變」：「asset」為大綱詞彙「資產」。

「參考譯文」但是，他們沒有注意到世界收入分配的差距與貧困之間的聯系；他們以為，給窮人福利和機會而不必改變收入及資產分配結構，就可以解決貧困問題。

China is now witnessing a new surge of interest in going to all sorts of night schools or training classes. As is shown in the pictures, lots of people are flocking to English classes while others are rushing to attend lectures on WTO. They all look happy and eager to go to the classes even after a whole day's work.

This enthusiasm for new knowledge can be attributed to the obvious reason that the government's policy of Open-up to the World and particularly China's access to WTO. These have given a fresh impetus to China's trade and exchange with foreign countries. China's trade volume with the world has, reportedly, reached an unprecedented $500 billion and cultural exchanges with other countries are being carried on an increasingly larger scale. The new situation requires that people have to learn more about WTO rules and of course they must also acquire a solid knowledge of English. Otherwise, they may find it difficult to trade or exchange with foreign countries efficiently. They may lose the competition in the process of globalization.

Undoubtedly, China's open policy and the globalization of the world are both irreversible and more and more Chinese will find it necessary to acquire new knowledge and skills. Therefore, more and more people will be going to various training classes or lectures in the years to come.

呵呵，不知道是不是？～～～

We are all busy talking about and using the Internet (互聯網), but how many of us know the history of the Internet?
Many people are surprised when they find that the Internet was set up in the 1960s. At that time, computers were large and expensive. Computer networks (網路) didn't work well. If one computer in the network broke down, then the whole network stopped. So a new network system had to be set up. It should be good enough to be used by many different computers. If part of the network was not working, information could be sent through another part. In this way computer network system would keep on working all the time.
At first the Internet was only used by the government, but, in the early 1970s, universities, hospitals and banks were allowed to use it too. However, computers were still very expensive and the Internet was difficult to use. By the start of the 1990s, computers became cheaper and easier to use. Scientists had also developed software that made 'surfing' (瀏覽) the Internet more convenient.
Today it is easy to get on-line (上網) and it is said that millions of people use the Internet everyday. Sending e-mail is more and more popular among students.
The Internet has now become one of the most important parts of people's life.
判斷下列句子是否符合短文內容，符合的用「T」表示，不符合的用 「F」表示。

「Cool」 is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings.
「Cool」 can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything. When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say 「It's cool.」You may think, 「He's so cool,」 when you see your favourite footballer.
We all maximize (擴大) the meaning of 「cool」. You can use it instead of many words such as 「new」 or 「surprising」. Here's an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall (瀑布) they had visited. On one student's paper was just the one sentence, 「It's so cool」. Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.
But the story also shows a scarcity (缺乏) of words. Without 「cool」, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility (可信性). Can you think of many other words that make your life as colourful as the word 「cool」? I can. And I think they are also very cool.
1. We know that the word 「cool」 has ________.
A. only one meaning B. no meanings
C. many different meanings D. the same meaning
2. In the passage, the word 「express」 means「________」.
A. see B. show C. know D. feel
3. If you are ________ something, you may say, 「It's cool.」
A. interested in B. angry about
C. afraid of D. unhappy with
4. The writer takes an example to show he is _________ the way the word is used.
A. pleased with B. strange to
C. worried about D. careful with
5. In the passage, the writer suggests (暗示) that the word 「cool」_________.
A. can be used instead of many words
B. usually means something interesting
C. can make your life colourful
D. may not be as cool as it seems
參考答案 ： 1．C 2．B 3．A 4．C 5．D
講解：
1．見首句。
2．由「express」前後詞義關系可推斷出是「表達」的意思，與「show」同義。

4．由例子中的學生用cool 一詞概括出他的所有感受，知cool詞義的擴大會導致語言中詞彙的缺乏，是令人擔憂的。
5．結合第4題的答案可做出選擇。
參考答案 ： 1. A 2. D 3. A 4. D 5. C
講解：
1. 由短文最後一句「They had travelled 1,797 kilometres from London」可知，最接近「for nearly 1,800 kilometres」，因此選A。
2. 由短文第2段倒數第3句「So they were able to change its weight」可知答案為D。
3. 從第3段可以看出，越往上溫度越低，因此應選A。
4. 由短文最後一段倒數第2句「They came down in Poland...」可知答案為D。

If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame, and few of us know that it is just his own fault.
Have you ever found that some people can' t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised.
So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practise remembering.

⑦ 請教英語達人高中英語閱讀相關~the development of science will hopeless slow down

個人認來為，首先D更明確的自說明了文中的內容，佔用大量的水電來保持綠地，肯定是正確選項。
其次，C中的waste更像是指的垃圾而不是浪費，因為它說污染地球。
再次，細節題要注重細節，像earth因為chemical和waste被污染太間接了。

那個句子應該是hopelessly slow down吧，要不語法不對。
應該是科學的發展很難慢下來，hopelessly修飾動詞slow down，就是慢下來沒什麼希望。

⑧ 幫忙說一下這個英語閱讀的大概意思

愛因斯坦作為20世紀傑出的科學家，不但對科學發展做出了貢獻卓越，對人權的建立和世回界和答平也盡心盡力。在二戰期間，愛心斯坦由於擔心希特勒的野心會給世界帶來毀滅性災難，他建議當時的美國總統率先製造核彈。對世界和平，盡管是一位非神論主義者，愛因斯坦對世界和平充滿信心：「神也許知道世事，但是他並不抱著憎恨的心。」

題外話，幫得了一次，幫不了一世，作業還是自己做的好：）

⑩ 如何科學設計初中英語閱讀教學活動

1.有效的英語閱讀讀中活動需達到的教學目的
(1)讀中活動要幫助學生理解文本信息
教師應採用「整體閱讀」的教學模式，這就要求學生拿到一個閱讀語篇時，首先的閱讀行為不是肢解文章和片段閱讀，而是視文章為一個整體，從宏觀上把握文章，領會文章的主旨及內涵，理清內部的相互關系。這種全局式的把握對之後的局部和細節的分析更加准確和透徹。
(2)讀中活動要設計科學合理的閱讀教學活動，保持學生的閱讀動力
設計讀中活動時，教師要抓住學生的心理特點，以提高和激發學生的積極性為出發點，維持學生閱讀興趣，增強閱讀教學效果。
(3)讀中活動要幫助學生掌握有效的閱讀策略，提高閱讀能力
例如，培養基本的閱讀技巧，如略讀、尋讀、預測推理等；根據上下文猜測詞義；通過解讀句法或句子結構弄清段落大意等；結合文本特徵，幫助學生理解和把握文本大意。
(4)讀中活動要幫助滲透文化背景知識，開拓學生眼界
在學習英語的過程中，接觸和了解外國文化有益於對閱讀素材的理解和使用，而文化背景的缺失會阻礙閱讀理解能力的提高。教師應充分利用教材，挖掘文化教學的素材，幫助學生拓展視野，激發他們學習英語的興趣。
2.有效讀中活動的實踐案例
活動內容：
由讀前活動失聯馬航370這一大事件過渡到教材中的兩個大事件，教師採用整體閱讀模式，進入快速閱讀全文，回答問題。
What are the two big events?
(1)Dr. King was killed.(2)The World Trade Center in New York was taken down by the terrorists.
隨後教師設計了兩種類型的細節題，運用了尋讀的閱讀技巧。

期刊文章分類查詢,盡在期刊圖書館

(1)T or F
1. Everyone in America remembers who killed Dr. King.___________
2. Robert Allen was eating lunch when Dr. King was killed.__________
3. Robert』s parents were shocked to hear the news.__________
4. Kate Smith was watching a movie when a plane hit the World Trade Center.___________
5. Kate didn』t think her friend was telling the truth about the event.___________
(2)Read the passage and fill in the form
Events Dates Feelings What was he/she doing?
Dr.King was killed.
The world trade center was taken down by the terrorists.
最後教師設計了一道開放型討論題Why did they remember those things clearly?引起學生思考
A. Because they have super mind.
B. Because those events were about their family and friends.
C. Because those events were very unusual and have meanings to them.*
活動評析：
教師設計的讀中活動由易到難，層層深入，有效地訓練了閱讀技巧，形式多樣，如表格中既考查了細節又再次訓練到本單元的重點語法。設計最巧妙的是最後的思考題，逐漸向情感目標靠攏，再次為後續內容的情感教育層層鋪墊。
三、如何進行有效的英語閱讀讀後活動設計
1.閱讀教學讀後活動的設計原則
(1)鞏固性原則
它是指在讀後活動中，學生在理解的基礎上牢固地掌握知識和技能，並且能根據需要快速再現出來，這有利於知識技能的靈活運用。
(2)開放性原則
它是指在讀後活動中教師以知識教學為載體，以學生的發展為首要目標，通過創設真實的情境和語境，幫助學生更好地理解文本內涵，並提供學生更大的發展空間，以提高學生的綜合語言運用能力。
(3)應用性原則
它是指在讀後活動中，學生在特定的情境和語境中，靈活運用文本中的語言內容來表達看法、思想和情感，靈活運用語言材料來參與活動和完成任務。
