同学们，大家好！ 这份考前辅导材料先从一则故事入手，让我们先来走进它： 1968年，在墨西哥奥运会的百米赛道上，美国选手吉?海因斯撞线后，转过身子看运动场上 的记分牌。当指示灯打出9.95秒的字样后，海因斯摊开双手自言自语地说了一句话。这一 情景通过电视网络，全世界至少有好几亿人看到，可是由于当时他身边没有话筒，因此海因 斯到底说了句什么话，谁都不知道。但人们清楚地知道这是人类历史上首次有人在百米赛道 上突破10秒大关。 1984年，洛杉矶奥运会前夕，一位叫戴维?帕尔的记者在办公室回放墨西哥奥运会的资 料片，当再次看到海因斯回头、摊手、自言自语的镜头时，他想他一定说了一句不同凡响的 话。但这一新闻点，竟被当时400多名在现场的记者给漏掉了，这实在是个天大的遗憾。于 是他决定去采访海因斯，问他当时到底咕哝了句什么话。当被问起16年前的事时，海因斯想了想笑着说：“当时难道没人听见吗？我说，上帝啊，那扇门原来是虚掩着的！” 谜底揭开之后，戴维?帕尔接着对海因斯进行了采访。针对那句话，海因斯说：“自美国运动员欧文斯于1936年5月25日在柏林奥运会上创下10.03秒的百米赛世界纪录之后，以詹姆斯?格拉森医生为代表团的医学界断言，人类的肌肉纤维所承载的运动极限不会超过 每秒10米，的确，这一纪录保持了32年，这一说法在田径场上非常流行，我也以为这是真的，但是，我想我的最高水平该跑出10.01秒的成绩。于是，每天我以自己最快的速度跑50公里。因为我知道，百米冠军不是在百米赛道上练出来的。当我在墨西哥奥运会上看到自己 9.95秒的纪录之后，我惊呆了，原来10秒这个门不是紧锁着的，它虚掩着，就像终点那根 横着的绳子。” “百米冠军不是在百米赛道上练出来的。”，“每天我以自己最快的速度跑50公里。”同学们，就是这每天的坚持成就了海因斯在最后的赛道上突破了自己的“10秒大关”，推开了虚掩着的成功之门，成就了自己，创造了历史。 高考不也如此？看似枯燥、单调、甚至令人心烦的一份一份小练、一题一题讲解、一遍 一遍重复，回想起来不正是铺就了我们通向虚掩着的那扇门吗？ 越是接近终点，越要屏气凝神、步履坚定、成竹在胸。因为我们知道，翻过了这份“考 前辅导材料”，“2018年高考卷”的尊容就在那扇虚掩着的门背后。 去吧，去轻轻地推开它！ 高三英语组全体老师预祝莘莘学子梦想成真！ 2018届高考英语考前辅导 应试总方法：“一看二序三速四查”。 一看：充分利用考前５分钟，认真阅卷，同时调节紧张的心理。阅卷时要注意，答题要求、 题量、总页码及正反面的试题。不要迫不急待答题。“磨刀不误砍柴工”。 二序：遵循先易后难的原则，不要违反规律。 三速：在规定的120分钟内完成全部试题需要一定的速度。以下为各项题目建议时间分配：（学生可根据自己的实际作适当调整） 听力单项、完形阅读理解任务型书面表达涂卡、整理 20分钟25分钟35分钟13分钟25分钟2分钟（建议做好一大题 就涂好一大题） 四查：在完成全部试题后要认真检查： 1. 试题是否全部完成（包括正、反面）。不要轻易改答案（尤其是阅读理解），除非恍然大悟。 2. 答题卡是否全部涂规范、正确，考号、姓名、科目等是否正确无误。 3. 对漏做、疑难的题目进行强攻。

It includes airfare ($225), hotel ($170), dining out ($116) and dressing up ($95) and the gift. If you have weddings to attend this year, here are some tips for you to avoid breaking the bank. 1. Book flights in advance The moment you decide to attend a wedding is the time to check flight prices at the best time. Plane fares are higher in the summer, especially in July and August. Booking in advance will save you money, as will watch for sales on lower-cost carriers like JetBlue and Frontier. You can check Google Flights for a calendar of prices showing the cheapest days to fly from apps like Hopper to get real-time alerts when a fare is at its lowest price point. 2. Don't blow your budget on the gift If you've got the money, an expensive gift is lovely. But there's no need to take out loans to prove your love for the happy couple. Skip an expensive necklace by giving (an appropriate amount of) cash instead. To save on the gift, consider making one: A photo album or scrapbook of memories with the bride and groom shows how much you care. You could also share the gift with other guest(s) or even make gifts with DIY ideas by yourself to save money. 3. Use old dresses and suits You don't always have to be on a new dress for a wedding. While men have the option of repeating their suits, women are more likely to spend money on new clothes for the special occasion. But before you take out your wallet, consider reinventing something already in your
