For Western designers, China and its rich culture have long been an inspiration激励,鼓舞 for Western creativity.
" It's nо secret that China has always been а source (来源) оf inspiration fоr designers," says Amanda Hill, a chief creative officer at A+E Networks, a global media company and home to some of the biggest fashion (时尚) shows .
芹巧物 Earlier this year, the China Through A Looking Glass exhibition in New York exhibited 140 pieces of China-inspired fashionable clothing alongside Chinese works of art 艺术品 , with the aim of exploring the influence of Chinese aesthetics (美学) on Western fashion and how China has fueled(fuel v. 加强,刺激) the fashionable imagination for centuries. The exhibition had record attendance, showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences.
"China is impossible to overlook," says Hill. "Chinese models are the faces of beauty and fashion campaigns 运动,活动 that sell dreams to women all over the world , which means Chinese women are not just不仅仅 consumers of fashion — they are central to its movement." Of course , not only are today's top Western designers being influenced by China — some of the best designers of contemporary fashion are themselves Chinese. "Vera Wang, Alexander Wang, Jason Wu are taking on(take on sth 接管) Galliano, Albaz, Mare Jacobs — and beating them hands down(beat sb hands down 轻松击败某人) in design and sales," adds Hill.
For Hill, it is impossible not to talk about China as the leading player when discussing fashion. "The most famous designers are Chinese, so are the models , and s o are the consumers(so be/do/have/情态动词 sb/sth. ...也是), " she says. "China is no longer just 不再仅仅是 another market; in many senses(在很多意义上) , it has become the market. If you talk about fashion today, you are talking about China — its influences, its direction, its breathtaking(breathtaking adj. 激动人心的) clothes, and how young designers and models are finally acknowledging 承认,认可 that in many ways ."

Before the 1830s, most newspapers were sold through annual subscriptions in America, usually $8 to $10 a year. Today $8 or $10 seems a small amount of money , but at that time these amounts were forbidding(forbidding adj. 可怕的,令人生畏的) to most citizens. Accordingly 于是, newspapers were read almost only by rich people in politics or the trades. In addition , most newspapers had little in them that would appeal to(sth appeal to sb. 对...有吸引力;使感兴趣) a mass audience. They were ll and visually forbidding. But the revolution that was taking place(take place 发生) in the 1830s would change all that.
The trend, then, was toward the "penny paper" — a term referring to(refer to sth. 提到,谈到) papers made widely available to the public. It meant any inexpensive newspaper; perhaps more importantly it meant newspapers that could be bought in single copies on the street .
This development did not take place overnight . It had been possible (but not easy) to buy single copies of newspapers before 1830, but this usually meant the reader had to go down to(go down to sw. 去往某地) the printer's office to purchase a . Street sales were almost unknown. However, within a few years , street sales of newspapers would be commonplace 普遍的 in eastern cities. At first , the price of single copies was seldom a penny — usually, two or three cents was charged(charge v. 收费,要价) — and some of the older well-known papers charged five or six cents. But the phrase "penny paper" caught the public's fancy(catch/take sb's fancy 吸引某人,中某人的意) , and soon there would be papers that did indeed sell for only a penny.
This new trend of newspapers for "the man on the street" did not begin well. Some of the early ventures (企业 ) were immediate failures . Publishers already in business在营业中 , people who were owners of successful papers, had little desire to change the tradition. It took a few youthful and daring(daring adj. 勇敢的,敢于冒险的) businessmen to get the ball rolling(set/start/get the ball rolling 着手做,开始做,带头做).

Monkeys seem to have a way with numbers.
A team of researchers trained three Rhesus monkeys to associate 26 clearly different symbols consisting of(consist of sth 由...构成) numbers and selective letters with 0-25 drops of water or juice as a reward. The researchers then tested how the monkeys combined — or added — the symbols to get the reward.
Here's how Harvard Medical School scientist Margaret Livingstone, who led the team, described the experiment: In their cages, the monkeys were provided with touch screens. On one part of the screen, a symbol would appear, and on the other side, two symbols inside a circle were shown. For example, the number 7 would flash(flash v. 快速地显示) on one side of the screen and the other end would have 9 and 8. If the monkeys touched the left side of the screen, they would be rewarded with seven drops of water or juice; if they went for the circle, they would be rewarded with the sum of the numbers — 17 in this example.
After running hundreds of 数以百计的 tests, the researchers noted 指出,留意到 that the monkeys would go for the higher values more than half the time, indicating that they were performing a calculation, not just memorizing the value of each combination.
When the team examined the results of the experiment more closely, they noticed that the monkeys tended to(tend to do sth 倾向于做某事) underestimate (低估) a sum compared with a single symbol when the two were close in value — sometimes choosing, for example , a 13 over the sum of 8 and 6. The underestimation was systematic 有条理的,成体系的 : When adding two numbers, the monkeys always paid attention to the larger of the two and then added only a fraction (小部分) of the smaller number to it.
"This indicates 显示 that there is a certain way quantity is represented in their brains," Dr. Livingstone says. "But in this experiment what they're doing is paying more attention to the big number than the little one." (pay attention to sth)

第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分》
第一节(共15小题:每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项《A、 B、 C和D)中。选出选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Doctor are known to be terrible pilots. They don't listen because they already know it all. I was lucky: ] became a pilot in 1970, almost ten years before I graated from medical school. I didn't realize then, but becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon. I loved flying. As I flew bigger, faster planes, and in worse weather. I learned about crew resource management (机组资源管理), or CRM, a new idea to make flying safer. It means that crew members should listen and speak up for a good result, regardless of positions.
I first read about CRM in 1980. Not long after that, an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather. The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready. The attending doctor was flying; I was safety pilot He was so busy because of the bad turn, he had forgotten to put the landing gear (起落架) down. He was a better pilot - and my boss - so it felt unusual to speak up. But I had to: Our lives were in danger. I put aside my uneasiness and said, "We need to put the landing gear down now!" That was my first real lesson in the power
of CRM, and I've used it in the operating room ever since.
CRM requires that the pilot/surgeon encourage others to speak up. It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite, the doctor doesn't overreact, which might prevent fellow doctors from voicing opinions again. So when I'm in the operating room, I ask for ideas and help from others. Sometimes they're not willing to speak up. But I hope that if I continue to encourage them , someday someone will keep me from ” landing gear up ”.
36.What dose the author say about doctors in general?
A. They like flying by themselves.
B. They are unwilling to take advice.
C. They pretend to be good pilots.
D. They are quick learners of CRM.
37.The author deepened his understanding of the power of CRM when_______.
A. he saved the plane by speaking up
B. he was in charge of a flying task
C. his boss landed the plane too late
D. his boss operated on a patient
38.In the last paragraph”landing gear up” probably means ______.
A.following flying requirements.
B.overreacting to different opinions.
C.listening to what fellow doctors say
D.making a mistake that may cost lives
39.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.CRM:A New Way to Make Flying Safe
B.Flying Makes Me a Better Doctor
C.The Making of a Good Pilot
D.A Pilot-Tumed Doctor
BIn 1947 a group of famous people from the art world headed by an Austrian conctor decided to hold an intemational festival of music,dance and theatre in Edinburgh. The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.
At the same time, the “Fringe” appeared as a challenge to the official festival.Eight theatre groups turned up uninvited in 1947,in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform,and they did so in a public house disused for years.
Soon,groups of studentsfirstly from Edinburgh University, and later from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge,Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to the Scottish capital each summer to perform theatre by little-known writers of plays in small church halls to the people of Edinburgh.
Today the “Fringe”,once less recognized, has far outgrown the festival with around 1,500 performances of theatre,music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts. And yetas early as 1959,with only 19 theatre groups performing,some said it was getting too big.
A paid administrator was first employed only in 1971, and today there are eight administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 ring August itself. In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1,695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries. More than 1,25 million tickets were sold.
40. Point was the purpose of Edinburgh Festival at he beginning?

42. Who joined the "Fringe" after it appeared?

C
Given that many people's moods (情绪)are regulated by the chemical action of chocolate, it was probably only a matter of time before somebody made the chocolate shop similar to a drugstore of Chinese medicine. Looking like a setting from the film Charlie&the Chocolate Factory, Singapore's Chocolate Research Facility (CRF) has over 100 varieties of chocolates.its founder is Chris Lee who grew up at his parents' comer store with one handalmost always in the jar of sweets.
If the CRF seems to be a smart idea, that's because Lee is not merely a seasoned salesperson but also head of a marketing department that has business relations with big names such as Levi's and Sony. That idea surely results in the imagination at work when it comes to making different flavored(味道)chocolates.
The CRF's proce is "green". made within the country and divided into 10 lines, with the Alcohol Series being the most popular. The Exotic Series一with Sichuan pepper, red bean (豆).cheese and other flavors一also does well and is fun to taste. And for chocolate snobs ,who think that they have a better knowledge of chocolate than others, the Connoisseur Series uses cocoa beans from Togo, Cuba, Venezuela , and Ghana, among others.
44. What is good about chocolate?
A. It serves as a suitable gift.
B. It works as an effective medicine.
C. It helps improve the state of mind.
D. It strengthens business relations.
45. Why is Chris Lee able to develop his idea of the CRF?
A. He knows the importance of research.
B. He learns form shops of similar types.
C. He has the support of many big names
D. He has a lot of marketing experience.
46. Which line of the CRF proce sells best?
A. The Connoisseur Series.
B. The Exotic Series.
C. The Alcohol Series.
D. The Sichuan Series.
47. The words "chocolate snobs" in Paragraph 3 probably refer to people who
A. are particular about chocolate
B. know little about cocoa beans
C. look down upon others
D. like to try new flavors

Public Speaking Training
·Get a coach
51 ,so get help. Since there are about a billion companies out there all ready to offer you public speaking training and courses, here are some things to look for when deciding the training that's right for you.
·Focus on positives
Any training you do to become more effective at public speaking should always focus on the positive aspects of what you already do well. Nothing can hurt confidence more than being told that you aren't doing well. , so good public speaking training should develop those instead of telling you what you shouldn't do.
·
If you find a public speaking course that looks as though it's going to give you lots of dos and don'ts, walk away! Your brain is so full of what you're going to be talking about.
54 . As far as we're concerned, there are basically no hard and fast rules about public speaking. Your audience can be your friends.
·You are a special person not a clone
Most importantly, good public speaking training should treat you as a special one, with your own personal habits. 55 . Your training course should help you bring out your
personality, not try to turn you into someone you're not.
A. You aren't like anybody else
B. You already do lots of things well
C. Turn your back on too many rules
D. Check the rules about dos and don'ts
E. Whatever the presentation, public speaking is tough
F .The one thing you don't want is for them to fall asleep
G. So trying to force a whole set of rules into it will just make things worse

During an interview for one of my books, my interviewer said something I still think about often. Annoyed by the level of distraction in his open office, he said, “That’s why I have a membership at the coworking space across the street —so I can focus. "His comment struck me as strange. After all, coworking spaces also typically use an open office layout. But I recently came across a study that shows why his approach works.
在为我的一本书接受采访时,采访者说了一些我仍然经常想到的话。因为对开放式办公室分心的程度感到恼火,他说,“这就是为什么我在街对面的共用空间拥有会员资格——这样我就能集中精力。”他的说法让我感到奇怪。毕竟,共用空间通常也使用开放式办公室布局。不过我最近看到了一项研究,才明白他的方案为什么有效。
The researchers examined various levels of noise on participants as they completed tests of creative thinking. They were randomly divided into four groups and exposed to various noise levels in the background, from total silence to 50 decibels,70 decibels, and 85 decibels. The differences between most of the groups were statistically insignificant; however,the participants in the 70 decibels group—those exposed to a level of noise similar to background chatter in a coffee shop-significantly outperformed the other groups. Since the effects were small, this may suggest that our creative thinking does not differ that much in response to total silence and 85 decibels of background noise.
研究人员在参与者完成创造性思维测试时,检查了他们身上不同程度的噪音。他们被随机分为四组,暴露在不同的背景噪音水平下,从完全安静到50分贝、70分贝和85分贝。大多组之间的差异没有统计学意义;然而,在70分贝组中,那些暴露在类似于咖啡馆背景聊天的噪音水平下的参与者明显优于其他组。由于影响很小,这可能表明我们的创造性思维对完全安静和85分贝的背景噪音的反应没有太大差异。
But since the results at 70 decibels were significant, the study also suggests that the right level of background noise—not too loud and not total silence—may actually improve one’s creative thinking ability. The right level of background noise may interrupt our normal patterns of thinking just enough to allow our imaginations to wander, without making it impossible to focus. This kind of "distracted focus" appears to be the best state for working on creative tasks.
但由于70分贝的结果显著,这项研究还表明,适当的背景噪音水平——不要太大,也不要完全安静——实际上可能会提高一个人的创造性思维能力。适当的背景噪音可能会干扰我们正常的思维模式,足以让我们的想象力四处发散,而不会让我们无法集中注意力。这种“注意力分散”似乎是从事创造性任务的最佳状态。
So why do so many of us hate our open offices? The problem may be that, in our offices, we can't stop ourselves from getting drawn into others’ conversations while we’re trying to focus. Indeed, the researchers found that face-to-face interactions and conversations affect the creative process, and yet a coworking space or a coffee shop provides a certain level of noise while also providing freedom from interruptions.
那么,为什么我们中有这么多人讨厌开放式办公室呢?问题可能是,在我们的办公室里,当我们努力集中注意力时,我们无法阻止自己被其他人的谈话所吸引。事实上,研究人员发现,面对面的互动和对话会影响创作过程,而一个共用空间或咖啡馆在提供一定程度的噪音的同时,也提供了免受干扰的自由。

Some parents will buy any high-tech高科技的 toy if they think it will help their child, but researchers said puzzles help children with math-related skills( help sb with sth; help sb do sth ).
Psychologist 心理学家 Susan Levine, an expert on mathematics development in young children at the University of Chicago, found children who play with puzzles between ages 2 and 4 later develop better spatial 空间的 skills. Puzzle play was found to be a significant 重要的 predictor of cognition (认知) after controlling for differences in parents' income, ecation, and the amount of parent talk, Levine said.
The researchers analyzed video recordings of 53 child-parent pairs ring everyday activities at home and found children who play with puzzles between 26 and 46 months of age have better spatial skills when assessed at 54 months of age.
"The children who played with puzzles performed better than those who did not, on tasks that assessed their ability to rotate (旋转) and translate shapes," Levine said in a statement .
The parents were asked to interact with(interact with sb 与某人互动) their children as they normally would, and about half of the children in the study played with puzzles at one time 一度,曾经 . Higher-income parents tended to have children play with puzzles more frequently, and both boys and girls who played with puzzles had better spatial skills. However, boys tended to(tend to do sth 倾向于做某事) play with more complex puzzles than girls, and the parents of boys provided more spatial language and were more active ring puzzle 拼图 play than the parents of girls.
The findings were published in the journal Developmental Science.

When you were trying to figure out 思考,想出 what to buy for the environmentalist 环境学家 on your holiday list, fur probably didn't cross your mind(cross sb's mind 念头闪现,想起) . But some ecologists 生态学家 and fashion (时装) enthusiasts 爱好者 are trying to bring back the market for fur made from nutria (海狸鼠). (be made of = be made from 由...制成)
Unusual fashion shows 时装秀 in New Orleans and Brooklyn have showcased 展示 nutria fur made into clothes in different styles." It sounds crazy to talk about guilt-free 毫无罪恶感的,不需要心存愧疚的 fur — unless you understand that the nutria are destroying vast 大量的,广阔的 wetlands every year, says Cree McCree, project director of Righteous Fur.
Scientists in Louisiana were so concerned that(so+ adj. that +句子. 如此...以至于...) they decided to pay hunters $5 a tail. Some of the fur ends up 最后处于;以...告终 in the fashion shows like the one in Brooklyn last month.
Nutria were brought there from Argentina by fur farmers and let go into the wild 进入野外 . "The ecosystem down there can't handle this non-native 非本国的 species (物种). It's destroying the environment . It's them or us," says Michael Massimi, an expert in this field.
The fur trade kept nutria in check(keep/hold sth in check 控制,抑制) for decades, but when the market for nutria collapsed 崩塌 in the late 1980s, the cat-sized 猫大小的 animals multiplied(multiply v. 成倍的增长;繁殖) like crazy.
Biologist Edmond Mouton runs(run v. 经营,管理,运作) the nutria control program for Louisiana. He says it's not easy to convince people that nutria fur is green, but he has no doubt about it. Hunters bring in more than 300,000 nutria tails a year, so part of Mouton's job these days is trying to promote推销,推广 fur.
Then there's Righteous 正当的 Fur and its unusual fashions. Model Paige Morgan says, "To give people a guilt-free option that they can wear without someone throwing paint on() them — I think that's going to be a massive thing, at least 至少 here in New York." Designer Jennifer Anderson admits it took her a while 一段时间 to come around to(come around/round to sth 常指在别人意见的影响下 想通某事) the opinion that(引导同位语从句) using nutria fur for her creations is morally acceptable 道德上可以接受的 . She's trying to come up with(come up with sth 想出,提出) a label to attach to(attach to sb/sth 与...有关联) nutria fashions to show it is eco-friendly 环保的,不损坏环境的 .

I have a special place in my heart for libraries. I have for as long as I can remember. I was always an enthusiastic reader , sometimes reading up to 高达 three books a day as a child. Stories were like air to me and while other kids played ball or went to parties, I lived out adventures through the books I checked out(check sth out 登记借书) from the library.
My first job was working at the Ukiah Library when I was 16 years old. It was a dream job and I did everything from shelving(shelve v. 把...放在架子上) books to reading to ( 朗读 read sth out/aloud to sb) the children for storytime.
As I grew older and became a mother, the library took on a new place and an added meaning in my life. I had several children and books were our main source (来源) of entertainment 娱乐的主要来源 . It was a big deal 大事 for us to load up(采购。load up on sth 大量购买某物) and go to the local library, where (定语从句引导词,修饰 local library) my kids could pick out books to read or books they wanted me to read to them. ( it is a big deal for sb to do sth 对某人来说,做某事是件大事,重要的事 )
I always read, using different voices, as though(as if/though 似乎,好像) I were acting out(act sth out = act out sth 把...表演出来) the stories with my voice and they loved it! It was a special time to bond with(bond with sb 团结,建立关系) my children and it filled them with the wonderment of books. ( fill 使...充满 sth/sb with sth; be filled with= be full of 充满... )
Now, I see (see/hear sb doing sth 看见/听见某人正在做某事) my children taking their children to the library and I love that the excitement of going to the library lives on from generation to generation .
As a novelist, I've found a new relationship with libraries. I encourage(encourage sb to do sth 鼓励某人做某事) readers to go to their local library when they can't afford(afford to do sth 承担得起做某事的费用或代价) to purchase a book. I see libraries as a safe haven (避风港) for readers and writers, a bridge that helps put together a reader with a book. Libraries, in their own way用他们自己的方式, help fight book piracy (盗版行为) and I think all writers should support libraries in a significant 有意义的 way when they can . Encourage readers to use the library. Share library announcements 通告,声明 on your social media. Frequent(frequent v. 常去,常到某处) them and talk about them when you can.

短文改错答题技巧
短文改错是有一定的规律可循的,纵观近几年的高考试题及我们平常的模拟考试,可以发现短文改错主要有以下十大错误:
1、形容词与副词的误用。如exciting与excited,hard与hardly,possible与possibly,here与there等,以及形容词与副词的比较级与最高级。
2、名词的单复数误用。如在several,many,various,different,a few,one of等之后,常用名词的复数,在every与each之后常用单数。
3、代词的误用。如you与your,it’s与its,it与they或them,one与ones,宾格(如me)与反身代词(如myself)等的误用。
4、介词的误用、缺少或多余。常见的如in与on,to与for,instead与instead of,because与because of等的误用。
5、时态的错误。看一篇 文章 ,要有一种大局观,要上前下挂,看看上下文的时态是否一致。
6、连词的误用。如or与and的误用,and与but的误用,so与but的误用,because或since与so连用,though与but连用等。
7、第三人称单数后的动词形式。
8、一些固定结构的误用。如so...that被误用作very...that,too...to被误用very...to,as...as被误作so...as等。
9、定语从句中关系词的误用。
10、一些常用词的误用。如what与how,except与besides,any与some以及它们的合成词如anything与something,anywhere与somewhere等混淆不清。
高考英语备考要注意什么
作文 不要背,心态很重要
千万不要让孩子整篇整篇地背诵 范文 ,因为高考考核的是综合运用语言的能力,让你押中题的情况几乎不可能出现。所以大家还是重在积累,把平常遇到的、听力中听到的精彩词句都可以记下来,灵活运用到 高考作文 中去,整篇整篇地背范文反而会限制考生的思维,因此完全没必要。
按部就班地放慢步伐复习,不要搞突袭,调整心态,防止考试时状态不好出现问题。临考前的心态也很重要。研究近三年高考题,习惯高考题型防止不适应,不要一味要求难度,要梳理培养英语思维

高考英语答题技巧有哪些窍门
阅读理解
关于阅读理解,我感觉除了多多练习外没有什么特别好的 方法 了,但是练习也有高效和低效的区别。接下来就针对阅读理解的提高谈谈我的方法:
1.准备一本关于阅读理解的练习册.(最好是那种高考卷,因为这类的卷子印刷会更好字迹会更加清晰,书写体验很不错,而且也更加贴近高考试题)
2.抽出一定时间完成三篇阅读.(时间的长度根据自身的水平而定,至于为什么是三篇呢,因为高考卷里就是三篇阅读理解啊)
3.在做题时遇到不会的单词要结合上下文,并且要用红笔划出比较常见但你不清楚的单词.(千万不能一遇到不会就马上查英语字典,这样水平的提高会比较慢而且也不利于单词的记忆。)
4.完成三篇阅读之后,要马上校对答案.(要及时订正,这样效率才会高)
5.准备一个小本子将自己不知道的单词以及重要的语法知识记录下来.(还要记得多多拿出来复习)
6.一篇 文章 最起码阅读三次.(第一次大概了解内容,第二次做题,第三次是详细阅读将文章中的重点语句、语法记录下来)
7.至于做题的频率嘛,我建议是两天完成一个任务。一天写练习和校对答案,另一天详细阅读并抄录相关的语法。(两天完成一个任务主要是考虑可能没有那么多的时间,如果你时间充裕的话也可以每天完成一个任务)如果你长期坚持下去绝对会有很大的收获的。
七选五
关于七选五,这种题目一般不会很难,主要是要看懂文章的大致内容。这里有些做题的小技巧分享一下:
1.要结合上下文进行选择
2.如果是选择小标题的话,要观察前几个小标题的结构以及长短。譬如,前面的标题都是动词开头,那么这个小标题也很有可能是动词开头
3.如果感觉有两个选项都可以的话,你可以先选择一个,看看下文的空格少了这个内容是否还合题意。也就是说可能这两个选项的内容放在这个空格都比较合理,但是有个选项的内容更加适合下面的空格。总之就是要上下文紧密联系。
完型填空
关于完型填空,完形填空考察的内容大致分为这几种:
1.文章上下文的衔接(如so、but......的)
2.固定搭配语法的填空(如look forward to+doing、stop to do停止然后去做、stop doing停止现在做的事......)
3. 短语 的意思(如turn up 朝上翻;来到;卷起;找到;出现;发生;调大,开大;证明是; turn down减少,关小;拒绝;驳回;顶回去......)
4.单词的意思(如unveil为...揭幕;揭开...上的覆盖物;stylish时髦的;高雅的......)
5.重要语法的考察(如名词性从句的考察,表语从句的考察......)
6.上下文意思的推导(如上文多次出现的语句,填空) 想要提高完形填空的分数就要从以上角度入手,总之就是要多读多背多记多练习。
语法填空
关于语法填空,首先,单词请一定要记准确,如果好不容易想出答案可是拼错了,那就真的是太惨了;其次,就是要多多练习,将常见的语法知识记录下来;最后,做题目时一定要小心,要保持头脑的清醒,注意大小写。这类型的题目是高考中极易失分的地方,而且也没有什么特别的套路可走,只能老老实实多刷题了。
应用文
关于应用文,要学会将写的应用文分类,并记录一些好用的语句和单词。所以准备一个摘录本就显得很有必要,至于本子我比较推荐活页的,因为删减起来比较方便。还要了解下打分的依据,按照依据去提高自己的水平。
在这里提一点:写应用文求稳不求高。高考改卷老师要改的试卷十分多,但给的时间却十分有限,所以老师改一篇应用文绝对不会超过一分钟,甚至几秒就过了一篇文章。在这么短的时间内,老师自然不会仔细看你的文章,所以你的卷面就显得很重要。
要少涂改最好做到不要涂改,文章的开头要仔细斟酌,一般只要你的文章读下来很顺极少出现磕绊的地方,哪怕语句很普通分数也会比较高的。
扩写
关于扩写,扩写想要得高分,一是看内容,二是看语句的表达。扩写的内容可以有很多,但主要抓住一个词“连贯”,无论是语句还是情节都要连贯;
情节也要符合实际,要有所突出,减少对话因为对话多了情感的表达就少了,扩写的两段字数要差不多这样会显得比较整洁;
内容要充满正能量,不一定都需要结尾议论升华情感和主题,但最好情节可以和给出的文章内容相呼应,如文章提到Bill成功了之后想要帮助更多像他一样的人,那你在扩写时就可以提到最后他终于成功了同时也帮助了很多想他一样的人。(不知道表达清楚了没有,总之就是前后内容呼应,这样会让老师觉得你认真看文章且十分注重细节)
无论什么 英语 作文 ,语句高级绝对是个很大的加分点,所以一些重要的语句也要牢牢掌握,类似天气的描述、氛围的渲染、环境的描写、人物的外貌动作语言、人物的心理描写......的优美语句,平时在做阅读或者在看英语杂志时要多多注意和记录。所以扩写的套路还是很多的,但还是离不开“背诵”两个字。
缩写
关于缩写,缩写的难度要大大大于扩写。在我看来它的难点在于这几个方面:
1.把几百字数的文章缩写到80个字以内(试卷上要求60字左右,也就是多于40字少于80字)
2.在限定字数内把文章的主要信息表现出来
3.找准主要的信息(一个重点大概是5分,是指缺少一个重点扣5分,所以重点一定要齐全)
4.避免使用太多原文的语句,要用 其它 类似意思的词句代替
5.语句要通顺连贯(想要高分语句也要往高级去写)总之要十分注意上面提到的几点,我们老师说缩写是真的难,也不是很好提高的。不过有个方法我觉得挺好的:为了防止不自觉就用太多文章中的语句,可以先掌握文章的主要意思,写下一些关键词,然后直接根据关键词写。(这个方法挺好的可以避免因抄太多原文而被扣分,但是关键词一定要找准确)
高考英语考试拿分技巧
1.作文塞一句倒装句,比啥都好用。"only in this way,can you"这句无论什么作文都能用上,瞬间提高一个档次。
2.新课标英语完形看到share果断选上。改错偷分看到and改成but。
3.英语改错错误类型:动词必有一个、名词必有一个、冠词必有一个、词性错误必有一个、代词必有一个、逻辑关系错误必有一个、必加一词、必删一词、主被动可能错、介词搭配可能错,要注意用两行写成的 句子 。
4. 英语阅读 理解,问作者态度一定选objectively,高考的英语阅读都是比较积极的,理智的,所以响应的题都应该选积极的。
5.英语阅读出现must,only,never一般都是错的。
6.英语会有一些题阅读涉及到infer,每当看到这个词语只需要看选项原文没有出现过的那一句。
7.英语选择题非谓语动词过去分词考的概率大,实在做不出来就判断主动,被动,关系。
8.考察倒装句,一般四个选项,两个不倒装的选项排除,剩下两个一个带助动词一个不带,从来都是有助动词的对。
9.英语单选有"before"一般都选它。
10.英语单选"whatever"与"no matter what",之类必选"whateve"形式。
11.作文通用句,偷分必须会背。
