1,The Earth—— Mother
Pcople often say that the earth is like our mother. She gives life to all the living things on the earth and provides us with air, food, water and other essential things we need for living.
Once she was beautifhl and rich, but now she becomes dirtier and dirtier, poorer and poorer. It is e to what we have done to her. Please have a good look at her: polluted rivers and lakes, growing deserts, the destruction of the forests and wild life, and the depletion of the ozone layer…
Can she bear to see her children putting the waste here and there? Can she bear too see her children cutting down the trees and destroying the grassland, to see the acid rain destroying everything? Can we bear to see our mother suffering so much? Isn' it time for us to ask ourselves whether this is the way to treat our mother?
Floods, draughts, acid rain…,these are the punishments from nature. Everyone should know that there is only one earth, lfwe go on treating her like this, it won' t be fit for us to live in any longer. It' s time for us to love her, take good care of her and cure her. We should save the earth so as to save ourselves.
地球——我们的母亲
人们经常说地球就像我们的母亲.她给了地球上所有生物生命,给我们提供生活所必需的空气、食物、水和一切基本的需要.
曾经她美丽富饶,而现在她变得越来越脏,越来越贫脊,那都是我们造成的.请好好看一看她：受污染的江河湖海、扩张的沙漠、森林和野生生物的毁灭、臭氧层的耗尽……
她能忍受她的孩子到处乱扔废弃物吗?她能忍受她的孩子砍伐树木、毁坏草原,让酸雨毁灭一切吗?我们能忍受她遭受这样的痛苦吗?我们该问问我们自己,这就是我们对待母亲的方式吗?
洪水、干旱、酸雨……这些都是自然对我们的惩罚.每个人都应该清楚人类只有一个地球.如果我们继续这样对待她,她将不再适合我们居住了.是该我们好好爱她、照顾她、治疗她的时候了.我们应该拯救地球,以便拯救我们自己.

4Pollution: a Social Problem
When we read newspapers, we often come across the word pollution. This word was not familiar to the people some decades ago. But now, it is a serious threat to us because.it means the poisoning of the air, seas, rivers and lands, which would do harm to our health.
There are many factories that bring pollution to us. We can not have fresh air in the morning. This is mainly because of the poisonous smoke coming from factories, especially chemical ones. In rivers, seas and oceans, there are instrial wastes. Some factories just throw their wastes into seas or let them flow into rivers. When people drink the water from such rivers, they get poisoned. Besides, there is rubbish from ships and when sometimes an accident occurs in an ocean, oil flows out from tankers.
On land, the accumulation of rubbish in the streets may dirty the city and ruin our health. This is mainly e to the improper disposal of rubbish by people.
If we do mot fight against pollution, surely one day all of us will be killed. Some people like to put the blame on the instrial revolutions. On the contrary, the pollution problem will be solved only with the help of modem science and technology.
污染——一个社会问题
我们看报的时候,经常会看到“污染”这个词.这个词对于几十年前的人来说并不熟悉.然而对于我们来说,它是一个严重的威胁,因为它意味着危害空气、海洋、河流和土地,进而对我们造成伤害.
有很多工厂给我们带来了污染.早上我们呼吸不到新鲜的空气.这主要是因为这些工厂里排放出有毒的气体,尤其是化工厂.在江河湖海里到处都有工业垃圾.一些工厂把废弃物排放到江河和海洋里.人们喝了这里面的水就会中毒.除此之外,还有从船上扔下来的垃圾和海洋里发生事故的船只流出来的油.
在陆地上,街道上乱扔的垃圾不仅影响市容,还危害我们的健康.这主要是因为人们对垃圾的不正确的处理.
我们如果不对污染采取措施,总有一天我们会被杀死的.有些人总爱把这归咎于工业革命.相反,污染问题还必须靠现代科学和技术来解决.
5Traditional Teaching Method
Do your teachers still use traditional techniques to teach you nowadays? A revol- ution in teaching techniques is required now. In the past, we just took it for granted that a teacher' s aim was to teach the students all that he knew and solve all the problems for them. Therefore, students could mot judge things on their own under this circumstance. Thus students graally lost the ability to learn by themselves. In addition, they were only equipped with the knowledge that were taught in class and made the same judgement upon every problem which might crop up. Of course, they would find their knowledge not enough to solve practical problems.
So it is time to change the teaching method. A teacher' s goal is to help the students develop not only the ability to learn by themselves but the skills to make judgements on every aspect on their own. It' s not necessary for the students to turn to teachers for help while meeting with difficulties. The first thing is to develop the students' abilities to make sound judgements upon any problem and overcome difficulties.
All in all, the aim of teaching is to liberate, but mot to fetter the students' innate powers of making sound judgements.
传统教育方式
你的老师还在用传统方法授课吗?现在教育方式的改革需要进行.过去,老师把他所有的知识教给学生,并帮学生解决他们所有的难题,这似乎是理所当然的.因此,在这种情况下,学生不能自我判断,也慢慢失去自学能力.另外,他们只能学到课堂上的东西,面对任一突发事件都会作出同样的判断.当然,他 们业余感到所学知识不足以解决实际问题.
因此,是到了改变教育目标的时候了.老师的目的不光是帮助学生培养自学能力,还应教给他们独立判断的方法.学生一旦面临难题就请教老师是不必要的.重要的是让学生具有独立判断并能克服困难的能力.
总而言之,教育目标是解放而不是限制学生判断事物的内在能力.
6,How to study English?
Study English,You do need to use English with speakers who are not teachers of English. This isn’t easy, since everyone feels constrained speaking English with friends with whom it would be natural to use a shared mother tongue. Joining an English Club is a good idea and joining a club with an international membership (where English is in use at least some of the time) is, for many people, even better. If nothing like this is accessible, you might consider what would be involved in getting something going.
活用英文乐趣多 活用英文乐趣多
你需要常常和英语教师以外的人士用英语交谈.这当然很不容易,因为与母语相同的人自由交谈时,彼此若用英语交谈总会觉得很不自在.亦可参加英语俱乐部或国际会员的俱乐部（至少有时使用英语沟通）,这样对很多人而言更有益.如果没有合适的社团可加入,也不妨考虑任何足以提高英语能力的机会.第一篇：THE NEWSPAPER 报 纸
Nowadays the newspaper possesses considerable value Everybody should read it. It supplies us with a variety of news every day. It tells us the political situation of the world. If we form the habit of reading the newspaper, we shall (will) get enough knowledge to cope with our circumstances.
现今报纸拥有极大的价值,人人都应该看它.它每天提供我们各种类类的消息.它告诉我们世界政治局势.如果我们养成看报的习惯,我们就能得到足够的知识来因应我们的环境.学生虽然每天须做功课,但他们至少应该匀出一两个小时来看报.哪些,他们不但能增加知识而且也能赶上时代.总而言之,看报对学生很有益处.

7：MY DAILY LIFE 我的日常生活
Though my daily life is extremely monotonous, I try hard to adapt myself to it. Why? Because I intend to be a good student. I wish to render service to my country.
I get up at six o’clock every day. After I wash my face and brush my teeth, I begin to review my lessons. I go to school at seven o’clock.
After school is over, I return home. We usually have supper at seven o’clock.
Then I begin to do my homework. I want to finish it before I go to bed.
虽然我的日常生活十分单调,但我却竭力设法去适应它.为什么?因为我打算做一个好学生,希望将来为国家服务.
我每天六点起床、洗脸刷牙后,就开始复习功课,七点钟我就去上学.
放学后,我就回家了.我们通常在七点钟吃晚餐,之后我就开始做家庭作业,希望在睡觉前把它做完.
8A MODEL STUDENT 模范学生
Do you mind being called a bad student? Of course not. So far as I know, everybody intends to be (become) a model student.
However, to be a model student is by no means an easy thing. First, he must do his best to obtain knowledge. A man without sufficient knowledge will not succeed. Secondly, he must remember to improve his health. Only a strong man can do great tasks. Thirdly, he should receive moral ecation. If his conct is not good, no one will consider making friends with him.
你价意被称为坏学生吗?当然不.就我所知,每个人都打算做模范学生.
然而,做模范学生却不容易.第一,他必须尽力获得知识（求知）.一个没有足够知识的人是不会成功的.第二,他必须记住促进健康.只有强壮的人才能做大事.第三,他应该接受道德教育.如果他品行不好,没有人会考虑和他交朋友的.
读书是一好事,但我们必须多加注意书的选择.不错,我们能从好书中获得益处.然而,坏书却对我们有害无益.
C. 英语阅读理解如何确定文章主题
这个问题问的很好，我曾经也有过这样的疑问，一般来说，英语文章有一种回类似于古代八股文的模答式，在考试中，大多数阅读理解都是关于环境问题，科学研究等，很少有关于生活的日记之类的，所以，首先文章首句挺重要的，因为老外比较直白，不会像我们似的老是爱用个引题什么的。第一段的结尾部分也会强调作者的观点和想要论证的句子，要细心。以上是对于一般情况来说的。个别情况肯定要个别讨论了，阅读确定不了文章主题关键问题还是“读不懂” 生词太多，句子结构太复杂，难理解，这些都是问题，所以根据自己的实际情况加强训练。
D. 英文阅读所要说的主题一般出现在什么位置
老外写文章一般喜欢直接了当，主题也就是我们所说的论点都是放在最开头的地方。然后后面就是大段的话来论证这么一个观点。不像中国人写文章，喜欢曲曲折折，弯弯绕绕，最好才点出真正的观点。
E. 英语阅读中，什么叫主题
题目是主题，如没标题，那就要你自己发现，就是文章展开的话题。
F. 假定你是李华,校英文报某专栏本周讨论的主题为“阅读”英语作文
英语作文：
Reading is very important in our study. The more you read, the more knowledge you command.
At the same time, we learn how to use these knowledge in our life. It is important for our growing up too.
So I have my own reading plan: read books at least one hour every day.
G. 英语作文1000字 主题是关于读书的
The Benefits of Reading
With the development of technology, today, people has many fast ways to have access to the knowledge, such as click on the computer, what we want to know can immediately present in front of us. The fast reading way is very convenient, but students start to read outside the college less, because it takes time. Reading outside the college is necessary, we can’ ignore.
First, reading outside the college can broaden our visional field. What we learn from class is limited, we need to read as more as possible to fulfill our mind. So when we do some research paper, we will have different ideas and provide some creativity. What’s more, such books are interesting, we will have fun outside the class.
Second, reading outside the college can cultivate people’s reading behavior. We read in school because we are forced, we have teachers to look at us. Once we are out of school, no one’s watching us, we’ll leave the books behind easily. Books are profound and we can gain much knowledge, we need to read them all the time, the reading behavior should be cultivated.
Reading is important to us, we should increase interest in reading outside the college.
H. 如何准确抓住考研英语阅读主题
一、主旨题识别方法
大纲当中明确要求考生要有理解文章主旨要义的能力。主题题就是要考查考生找到一篇文章的中心主旨的能力，命题形式主要有以下两种：一是直接发问，问中心主旨、论点等；二是要求考生给文章定题目，测试考生对文章理解的程度和概括能力。
A.直接发问的题干问法举例如下：
We can draw a conclusion from the text that ______.
They key point of the passage is______.
What is the passage mainly about?
This passage is mainly about ______.
B.给文章定题目的题干问法举例如下：
An appropriate title for the text is most likely to be______.
Which of the following is the best title for this text?
The best title for the text may be ______.
Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
主旨题解题思路：通过略读抓主题句（topic sentence），这是概括文章中心思想的常见方法。主题句表达中心思想，其他的句子均围绕其展开说明或议论。按照西方人思维习惯，他们喜欢使用演绎法，即先提出重要信息，然后引用材料来论述。考研阅读文章结构大体符合演绎规则。
