❷ 大學英語段落，求翻譯，一定要語言通順
中國股市是否已抄出現泡沫？這取襲決於你看股市的哪一部分。對於長期萎靡的大盤股來說，經過過去幾年的長期低迷之後，目前毫無疑問其股價表現得更加公允。許多銀行股的股價也仍然低於國際同業銀行機構的股價。不過對於創業板（主要為初創公司上市融資）來說，情況就不是這樣了，尤其是高科技企業，其市盈率已高達130，比那些迅速成長的普通公司的市盈率高出二倍有餘。創業板被看做是中國的納斯達克；而當前創業板的狀況也的確很像1999年時納斯達克的狀況——那是全球網路泡沫崩潰的前夕。
中國股市經常被稱為一個大賭場，股價與其背後的經濟狀況完全扯不上關系。雖然股價在過去的經濟增長中並沒有什麼像樣的抬升，但是過去幾個月這種股價與經濟的背離又向著相反的方向達到了一個新的極致。（中國）一季度的經濟增速回落到7%，創下六年來的新低；但股市自去年年中以來卻已經翻了個番。（隨著中國的經濟政策逐漸轉向）貨幣寬松和財政刺激——以及對兩種經濟工具兼而有之的期盼——大概能夠解釋為什麼會引發這一次的牛市。但是隨著本輪牛市持續的時間越長，其表現就越像一個典型的非理性繁榮狀況。因此，我們用圖表數據來展示一下當前這種狂熱的股市。
❸ 如何講大學英語精讀
所謂精讀，就是要精講。
講什麼呢：講語言。
你可以從小講到大，比如，先講專重要的單詞屬（key words）；然後講片語或短語；接著講句子；最後講整篇。
這裡面滲透了詞法、句法和修辭等東西，所以你事先要研究一番這些概念。
也可以由大講到小（我覺得這樣講比較好）。先把重點放在全文，讓學生們給一個梗概；然後，分段落展開（每段落的中心市什麼），當然要有學生們討論；再講作者是如何用各個句子展現這個中心的（其中最關鍵的是每段的主體句）。
❹ 如何講一節大學英語課，時間是20分鍾，沒有學生，就是事業編考試的試講環節，沒有題目和具體內容。
大學抄英語教材襲一般是大學英語，你可以選擇大一大學英語課本里的幾篇篇文章的某一個段落進行准備。如果面試時候老師不給材料現場准備就講自己准備好的。不過，一般都會現場給你題目和內容的。
一般試講都是沒有學生的，面對的只有評審老師，你要把他們當成學生，進行一些有效互動，但是不要等著台下老師的回應，繼續你的講課就可以了。
體態儀容儀表也很重要，不要有過多的小動作，發音一定要標准，淡定從容。
❺ 怎樣寫好英語段落
段落是文章的縮影。寫好了段落，就能比較成功地寫出較好的文章。經過中學英語基礎階段的學習之後，大學英語的寫作重點就從選詞造句轉移到了聯句成段和聯段成篇上。進行段落層次上的寫作訓練，是寫好英語文章的關鍵一環。下面介紹的是段落結構。
段落（ paragraph ）是由表達單一中心思想（controlling idea or central idea ）的一組句子（包括主題句 topic sentence,推展句supporting sentences及結論句concluding sentence）構成，是文章結構的基本獨立單位。本講我們將就主題句和中心思想這兩個方面展開討論。
主題句與推展句
1． 主題句
主題句（topic sentence）是表達段落主題的句子。它用以概括段落大意，要求全段其他文字都圍繞它展開。請看下例：
My mother has passed along to me certain rules for getting along with others. Don't argue with parents; they will think you don't love them. Don't argue with children; they will think themselves victimized. Don't argue with spouses; they will think you are a tiresome mate. Don't argue with strangers; they will think you are not friendly. My mother's rules, in fact, can be summed up in two words: Don't argue.
主題句中提出的 "certain rules" 指的是什麼？展開句中通過四個 "Don't argue --" 逐一加以交代。從結構來看，這是一個比較典型的段落，它包括了主題句，推展句和結論句（即本段中的末句）。
1．1 主題句的位置
主題句通常放在段落的開端，其特點是開門見山地擺出問題，然後加以詳細說明。其作用是使文章的結構更清晰，更具說服力，便於讀者迅速地把握主題和想像全段的內容。主題句可以放在段中起到承上啟下的作用，或放在段尾起概括全段的作用。但初學者比較難於掌握，因而在四級考試中，考生應盡量採用將主題句放在段落開頭的寫作手法。
例1: Our life today depends very much on energy. In towns and in villages, on farms and in factories, machines have made life easier than it used to be. The machines use energy, and energy is needed for heating, lighting, communications, carrying goods -- everything. Factories and instrial plants use a great deal of energy to make the things that we use and buy and sell.
這段文字所講的主要是能源問題。第一句就概括性地提出「我們目前的生活很大程度上依賴於能源」。而隨後出現的三句都是具體事例，對第一句進行說明和論述。我們可以斷定第一句為該段的主題句（斜體部分）。
例2: （主題句）No one can avoid being influenced by advertisements. （推展句1）Much as we may pride ourselves on our good taste, we are no longer free to choose the things we want, for advertising exerts a subtle influence on us. （推展句2）In their efforts to persuade us to buy this or that proct, advertisers have made a close study of human nature and have classified all our little weakness.
以上這段由三句話組成。第一句是主題句，直截了當指出無人不受廣告影響這個主題，接著列舉兩個推展句對其補充和支持，指出我們已無法自由選擇所需的商品，理由是廣告商已仔細研究了我們
❻ 大學英語課文該怎麼講給學生聽,作為一名新大學老師求助！
英語要學好，注意，是學「好」，主要不是靠上課，有時甚至可以基本忽略上課的內作用。原因第一是個人容努力占最大比重，第二就是大部分老師上的是混日子的課，對學生幫助很少，味同嚼蠟。
你不錯啊，因為你確實在考慮怎麼去講「有意思」的課。很好的開始。
要講好一堂課，作為老師，也是學無止境。
作為良好開始的基礎：大學英語的話，知識點肯定要講一講的。課文內容不需要翻譯給學生。但是要講解其中的精妙處。然後設置一些課堂討論，然後在學了一陣以後可以請同學朗讀某一個精彩段落之類。
至於其他的，等上面的內容做好了，再改進。
你可以參考一下新東方講新概念的視頻。有很多課很精彩的。如果你要成為一個優秀的老師，可以學習借鑒一下。還可以去參加新東方專門培訓老師的課程。
❼ 大學英語精讀怎麼講解
翻譯課文，講難句子的句法，講重點單詞。我們老師是這樣講的
❽ 怎樣寫好英語段落（二）
段落發展的手段及結尾段的寫法 在上一講我們講了主題句，推展句的寫法；這一講我們要進一步來談一談段落發展的幾種手段以及結尾段的寫法。 段落發展的幾種手段 1． 列舉法(details) 作者運用列舉法，是通過列舉一系列的論據對topic sentence中擺出的論點進行廣泛、全面地陳述或解釋，列舉的順序可以按照所列各點內容的相對重要性、時間、空間等進行。 Yesterday was one of those awful days for me when everything I did went wrong. First, I didn't hear my alarm clock and arrived late for work. Then, I didn't read my diary properly and forgot to get to an important meeting with my boss. During the coffee break, I dropped my coffee cup and spoilt my new skirt. At lunch time, I left my purse on a bus and lost all the money that was in it. After lunch, my boss was angry because I hadn't gone to the meeting. Then I didn't notice a sign on a door that said "Wet Paint" and so I spoilt my jacket too. When I got home I couldn't get into my flat because I had left my key in my office. So I broke a window to get in and cut my hand. 根據本段主題句中的關鍵片語everything I did went wrong，作者列舉了8點內容，分別由first, then, ring the coffee break, after lunch time等連接詞語引出，使得該文條理清楚、脈絡分明、內容連貫。 常用於列舉法的過渡連接詞有：for one thing , for another, finally, besides, moreover, one another , still another, first, second, also等。 2. 舉例法(example) 作者通過舉出具體事例來闡述、說明主題句的內容，嚴格地講，舉例法也是列舉法的一種，它們的區別在於：列舉法側重羅列事實，所列事實力求全面；而舉例法側重通過舉出典型事例來解釋作者觀點，且事例可多可少。 我們來看下面這個用舉例法展開的段落。 There are many different forms of exercises to suit different tastes. For example, those who enjoy competitive sports may take up ball games. For another example, if they prefer to exercise alone, they can have a run or take a walk in the morning or in the evening. Besides, people can go swimming in the summer and go skating in the winter. In short, no matter what their interests are, people can always find more than one sports that are suitable to them. 本段採用了三個事例來說明主題句中的關鍵片語different forms of exercises，這三個例子分別由連接詞for example, for another example 和 besides引出，最後由引導的結尾句總結全段內容。 舉例法中常用的連接詞有：for example (instance), one example is, besides, furthermore, moreover, in addition等。 3. 敘述法(narration) 敘述法發展段落主要是按照事物本身的時間或空間的排列順序，通過對一些特有過渡連接詞的使用，有層次分步驟地表達主題句的一種寫作手段。用這種方法展開段落，作者能夠清楚連貫地交待事物的本末，從而可以使讀者可以清晰、完整地理解文章的含義，例如： In the flat opposite, a woman heard the noise outside. When she looked out through the window, she discovered that her neighbor was threatened by someone. She immediately called the police station. In answer to the call, a patrol police car arrived at the scene of the crime quickly. Three policemen went inside the flat at once, and others guarded outside the building to prevent anyone from escaping. 這段是按照事物發展的先後順序，敘述從發現案情、報警、到警察趕到、包圍現場的過程。全文脈絡清晰，敘述的層次感強，結構緊湊。 常用於敘述法中的過渡連接詞有：first, an the beginning, to start with, after that, later, then, afterwards, in the end, finally等。 4． 對比法或比較法(comparison & contrast) 將同類的事物按照某種特定的規則進行比較分析是一種常用的思維方法。通過對比，更容易闡述所述對象之間的異同和優缺點，例如： The heart of an electronic computer lies in its vacuum tubes, or transistors. Its electronic circuits work a thousand times faster than the nicer cells in the human brain. A problem that might take a human being a long time to solve can be solved by a computer in one minute. 在這段文字上， 作者為了突出電子計算機運行速度之快，首先將它與人腦進行了比較， "-- a thousand times faster than --" ;而後，又將這一概念具體到了 "a problem"上，通過對比使讀者從 "-- a long time -- in one minute"上有更加直觀的認識。 常用於對本法或比較法上的過渡連接詞有：than, compared with等。 5． 分類法(classification) 在闡述某一概念的段落中，常用分類法。通過對概念中所包括的事物進行分門別類，分別加以敘述，使讀者有更為清晰的認識，如： Ever since humans have lived on the earth, they have made use of various forms of communication. Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished through sign language in which motions stand for letters, words and ideas. Tourists and the people unable to hear or speak have had to resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of whole words are very vivid and exact and can be used internationally; spelling, however, cannot. Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or unintentionally. A nod signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction. Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in signal flags, Morse code, and picture signs. 在該段中為了說明topic sentence中的 "various forms of communication"，作者將其分為oral speech, sign language, body language及other forms of nonlinguistic language，並逐加闡述。 採用這種方法的段落並沒有標志突出的連接詞，所述各項均為平行並列關系，所以沒有明顯的主次之分。 6．因果分析法(cause and effect) 在闡述某一現象的段落中，常採用因果分析法。例如： The role of women in today's society is changing. One reason is that women have begun to assert themselves as independent people through the women's movement. Also, women are aware of the alternatives to staying at home. Another reason is that increasing numbers of women who enter new fields and interests serve as role models for other women. Moreover, men are becoming more conscious of the abilities of women and have begun to view their independence positively. 本段中，主題句提出了一種社會現象，推展句則對產生這種現象的原因作出各種解釋。 常用於因果分析法的連接詞有：because, so, as a result等。 7． 定義法(definition) 在科普文章的寫作中，定義法是必不可少的。通過下定義，可以使讀者對該事物有一個更直接的認識。 Automation refers to the introction of electronic control and automation operation of proctive machinery. It reces the human factors, mental and physical, in proction, and is designed to make possible the manufacture of more goods with fewer workers. The development of automation in American instry has been called the "Second Instrial Revolution". 這一段文字使我們了解了 "automation" 和 "Second Instrial Revolution" 兩個概念，分別由 "refers to" 和 "been called" 引出。 常出現在定義法中的詞語有：refer to, mean, call等。 8. 重復法(repetition) 句子的一部分反復出現在段落中，這就是重復法。它往往造成一種步步緊逼的氣氛，使文章結構緊湊，有感染力。比如： Since that time, which is far enough away from now, I have often thought that few people know what secrecy there is in the young, under terror. I was in mortal terror of the young man who wanted my heart and liver; I was in mortal terror of my interlocutor with the iron leg; I was in mortal terror of myself, from whom an awful promise had been extracted; -- 該段中反復應用了I was in mortal terror of …我經常處於恐怖之中。 以上， 我們結合具體文章討論了展開段落的幾種方法。在實際寫作中，我們往往不必拘泥於一種寫作方法，而是將若干方法穿插在一起，使文章有聲有色。 結尾段 我們知道文章的開頭很重要，因為好的開頭可以吸引讀者、抓住讀者的注意力。同樣，文章的結尾也很重要，好的結尾會使讀者對全文的中心思想留下深刻的印象，可以增添文章的效果和說服力，讓人深思，回味無窮。確切地說，結尾的作用就是概括全文內容，進一步強調或肯定文章的中心思想，使讀者加深印象；有時也用於展望未來，提出今後方向或令人深思的問題給讀者留下回味和思考的餘地。 但是，如何才能寫好英文短文的結尾呢? 下面就介紹幾種寫結尾段最常用的方法： 1．重復中心思想: 回到文章開頭闡明的中心思想或主題句上，達到再次肯定和強調的效果。 (例1)A sense of humor is really one of the keys to happiness. It gives zest to life to make it worth living. (例2)With all these benefits, it is no wonder that sports and games have now become more popular with people than ever. 2．作出結論: 文章最後用幾句話概括全文內容，並進一步肯定文章的中心思想或作者的觀點。 (例1)In conclusion, a good teacher-student relationship can be mutual beneficial. The students gain knowledge eagerly and enjoyably, and the teacher gains satisfaction from his job. (例2)On the whole there are more advantages than disadvantages in the use of TV. Yet different people may have different attitude toward TV. But we must realize that television in itself is neither good nor bad. Its value to people and society depends on how we look at it. 3．應用引語: 用格言、諺語或習語總結全文，既言簡意賅又有更強的說服力。 (例1)If you have anything to do, try to do it yourself, for that is the safest way to
permanent success. Remember the famous saying. "God helps those who help themselves." (例2)If we stick to studies day after day, there is nothing that can't be achieved. As an old saying goes: "Constant dropping of water wears away a stone." 4．用反問結尾: 雖然形式是問句，但意義卻是肯定的，具有明顯的強調作用，引起讀者思考。 (例1)Therefore, listening skills must be consciously improved. Since it is such an important means of learning and communication, why should we not develop this ability as far as possible? (例2)So，what can we benefit from wealth if we do not have health? 5．提出展望或期望: 表示對將來的展望或期待讀者投入行動。 (例1)I am sure that Chinese will become one of the most important languages in the world in the next century. As China will open further to the outside world the language is sure to be spread world widely. (例2) If everyone has developed good manners, people will form a more harmonious relation. If everyone behaves considerately towards others and social ethics people will live in a better world. With the general mood of society improved, there will be a progress of civilization. 以上介紹了幾種寫結尾段最常用的方法，但到底選擇何種方法結尾還得根據文體來決定。平鋪直敘的記敘文，往往在故事或事實情節講完時文章也就自然結束了，而說理性和邏輯性較強的說明文和議論文都應有一個正式的結尾。希望以上介紹的幾種方法能對大家寫好結尾有所幫助。 首先，一個段落必須有一個中心即主題思想，該中心由主題句特別是其中的題旨來表達。整個段落必須緊扣這個主題(stick or hold to the topic)，這就是段落的統一性(unity)。其次，一個段落必須有若干推展句，使主題思想得到充分展開，從而給讀者一個完整的感覺，這就是完整性(completeness or adequateness)。再者，一個段落不是雜亂無章的，而是有機的組合，句子的排列順序必須合乎邏輯，從一個句子到另一個句子的過渡必須流暢(smooth)，這就是連貫性(coherence)。下面我們就對這三個標准分別加以說明。 1. 統一性 一個段落內的各個句子必須從屬於一個中心，任何游離於中心思想之外的句子都是不可取的。請看下例： Joe and I decided to take the long trip we'd always wanted across the country. We were like young kids buying our camper and stocking it with all the necessities of life. Bella bakes the best rhubarb pie. We started out in early spring from Minneapolis and headed west across the northern part of the country. We both enjoyed those people we met at the trailer park. Joe received a watch at his retirement dinner. To our surprise, we found that we liked the warm southern regions very much, and so we decided to stay here in New Mexico. 本段的主題句是段首句，controlling idea（中心思想）是take the long trip across the country。文中出現兩個irrelevant sentences，一個是Bella bakes the best rhubarb pie，這一段是講的是Joe and I，中間出現一個Bella是不合適的。還有，Joe received a watch at his retirement dinner這一句更是與主題句不相關。考生在四級統考的作文卷上常常因為造出irrelevant sentences（不相關語句）而丟分，值得引起注意。再看一個例子： My name is Roseanna, and I like to keep physically fit. I used to weigh two hundred pounds, but I joined the YMCA for an exercise class and diet program. In one year I lost eighty pounds. I feel much better and never want to have that much weight on my five-feet frame again. I bought two new suitcases last week. Every day I practice jogging three miles, swimming fifteen laps, lifting twenty-pound weights and playing tennis for one hour. My mother was a premature baby. 本段的controlling idea 是like to deep physically fit，但段中有兩個irrelevant sentences，一個是I bought two new suitcases last week，另一個是My mother was a premature baby。 從上面兩個例子可以看出，native speakers同樣會造出來irrelevant sentences。卷面上如果這種句子多了，造成偏題或離題，那問題就更嚴重了。權責聲明：本站所有音樂均網上搜集僅做寬頻測試，任何涉及商業盈利目的均不得使用，否則後果自負！如遇英文歌曲不能播放，系歌曲鏈接失效，請諒解！本站全部英文歌曲的所有權歸其唱片公司或歌手所有。請購買正版英文歌曲支持你的偶像！

如果你的意思是如何寫好一個段落，那麼請繼續往下看
首先，一個段落必須有一個中心即主題思想，該中心由主題句特別是其中的題旨來表達。整個段落必須緊扣這個主題（stick or hold to the topic），這就是段落的統一性（unity）。其次，一個段落必須有若干推展句，使主題思想得到充分展開，從而給讀者一個完整的感覺，這就是完整性（completeness or adequateness）。再者，一個段落不是雜亂無章的，而是有機的組合，句子的排列順序必須合乎邏輯，從一個句子到另一個句子的過渡必須流暢（smooth），這就是連貫性（coherence）。下面我們就對這三個標准分別加以說明。
1、統一性
一個段落內的各個句子必須從屬於一個中心，任何游離於中心思想之外的句子都是不可取的。請看下例：
Joe and I decided to take the long trip we』d always wanted across the country. We were like young kids buying our camper and stocking it with all the necessities of life. Bella bakes the best rhubarb pie. We started out in early spring from Minneapolis and headed west across the northern part of the country. We both enjoyed those people we met at the trailer park. Joe received a watch at his retirement dinner. To our surprise, we found that we liked the warm southern regions very much, and so we decided to stay here in New Mexico.
本段的主題句是段首句，controlling idea（中心思想）是take the long trip across the country。文中出現兩個irrelevant sentences，一個是Bella bakes the best rhubarb pie，這一段是講的是Joe and I ，中間出現一個Bella是不合適的。還有，Joe received a watch at his retirement dinner這一句更是與主題句不相關。考生在四級統考的作文卷上常常因為造出irrelevant sentences（不相關語句）而丟分，值得引起注意。再看一個例子：
My name is Roseanna, and I like to keep physically fit. I used to weigh two hundred pounds, but I joined the YMCA for an exercise class and diet program. In one year I lost eighty pounds. I feel much better and never want to have that much weight on my five-feet frame again. I bought two new suitcases last week. Everyday I practice jogging three miles, swimming fifteen laps, lifting twenty-pound weights and playing tennis for one hour. My mother was a premature baby.
本段的controlling idea 是like to deep physically fit，但段中有兩個irrelevant sentences，一個是I bought two new suitcases last week，另一個是My mother was a premature baby。
從上面兩個例子可以看出，native speakers同樣會造出來irrelevant sentences。卷面上如果這種句子多了，造成偏題或離題，那問題就更嚴重了。
2、完整性
正象我們前面說得那樣，一個段落的主題思想靠推展句來實現，如果只有主題句而沒有推展句來進一步交待和充實，就不能構成一個完整的段落。同樣，雖然有推展句，但主題思想沒有得到相對圓滿的交待，給讀者一種意猶未盡的感覺。這樣的段落也不能完成其交際功能。例如：
Physical work can be a useful form of therapy for a mind in turmoil. Work concentrates your thoughts on a concrete task. Besides, it is more useful to work ---- you proce something rather than more anxiety or depression.
本段的主題句是段首句。本段的兩個推展句均不能回答主題句中提出的問題。什麼是「a mind in turmoil」（心境不平靜）Physical work又如何能改變這種情況？為什麼它能起therapy的作用？讀者得不到明確的答案。由於四級統考的作文部分只要求寫一篇100～120個詞的三段式短文，每一段只有大約40個詞左右，因此，要達到完整就必須盡可能地簡明。例如：
It is not always true that a good picture is worth a thousand words. Often writing is much clearer than a picture. It is sometimes difficult to figure out what a picture means, but a careful writer can almost always explain it.
段首句所表達的主題思想是一種看法，必須有具體事例加以驗證。上述兩個推展句只是在文字上對主題作些解釋，整個段落內容空洞，簡而不明。如果用一兩個具體的例子的話，就可以把主題解釋清楚了。比如下段：
It is not always true that a picture is worth a thousand words. Sometimes, pictures are pretty useless things. If you can』t swim and fall in the river and start gulping water, will you be better off to hold up a picture of yourself drowning, or start screaming "Help"?
3、連貫性（coherence）
連貫性包括意連和形連兩個方面，前者指的是內在的邏輯性，後者指的是使用轉換詞語。當然這兩者常常是不可分割的。只有形連而沒有意連，句子之間就沒有內在的有機的聯系；反之，只有意連而沒有形連，有時行文就不夠流暢。
1）、意連
段落中句子的排列應遵循一定的次序，不能想到什麼就寫什麼。如果在下筆之前沒有構思，邊寫邊想，寫寫停停，那就寫不出一氣呵成的好文章來。下面介紹幾種常見的排列方式。
A．按時間先後排列（chronological arrangement）
B. 按位置遠近排列（spatial arrangement）
C. 按邏輯關系排列（logical arrangement）
a. 按重要性順序排列（arrangement in order of importance）
b.由一般到特殊排列（general-to-specific arrangement）
c. 由特殊到一般排列（specific-to-general arrangement）
2）、形連
行文的邏輯性常常要靠適當的轉換詞語及其他手段來實現。
4、有損連貫性的幾種情況：
考生在寫作中經常出現下面幾種錯誤：
1、不必要的改變時態，
2、不必要的改變單復數，
3、不必要的改變人稱
因此寫作中，一定要注意時態，人稱以及數的變化是否正確，要注意保持一致。
