Writing a book review is not like writing a fiction, where you have your freedom to express any type of literary mood. Here, you are limited within the scope, which is related only to the book or the literature and nothing else. To write a proper literary review, you should follow some important dos and don’ts, which are discussed here.

Top 3 dos

Select a literature of your choice and read it thoroughly. If required, you should read it multiple times, before you really frame up the literary review in your mind. While reading, try to assimilate the thoughts and philosophy of the author behind the book and also to analyze all the characters and events described in the literary piece. Start to pen down your literary analysis only when you have a complete understanding of the book, and not before that.

Prepare your write-up based on your understanding of the book. Since you are reviewing the book, your opinion plays an important role here. If you prefer any particular character or any particular instance from the book, then expose that character or the situation in your review, to give it more importance. Also determine your preference with supporting logic. Ultimately it is your understanding of the book, and it can differ from others’ viewpoint. But you should stick to your opinion.

Follow a proper format to construct your book review. It should have a proper introduction and a conclusion, other than the usual subject body. Distribute the subject body in chapters and paragraphs, to give a nice, structured look. Also, add a list of reference material at the end of the book. A structured material always carries a good impression and also, it helps the reader to go through the article at ease.

Top 3 don’ts

Book reviews are not exactly meant for writing a summary on the books. The objective of writing a book review is to arouse the curiosity in the mind of the readers. If someone mentions everything in the summary then the actual intention is lost.

As mentioned earlier, one should not cross your limit to write a literary review. Do not bring up unnecessary topics to increase the length of the write-up, which is not at all related to the book. The readers want to learn about the book and not something irrelevant. Also, a smart and crisp writing helps to create a positive impression.

You can go through reference books or articles on your subject, before you start preparing your article. But that should be completely with the intention of getting help in your understanding of the book. These reference items will help to strengthen your grip on the subject. But, you should never copy a single line of text from any other document or write-up. Plagiarism(剽窃), in any form, is a punishable offence by law. It will also destroy your reputation and close all the future avenues in

this field.

If you can follow the above dos and don’ts religiously to write a book review, then it is going to be more original and interesting.

1. Which of the following words is closest in meaning to the underlined word “assimilate”in paragraph 2?

A. stimulate

B. fertilize

C. digest

D. enhance

2. The purpose of writing a review on a book is

A. to show your understanding of the thoughts and philosophy of the author behind the book

B. to show that you really stick to your own opinion though you’ve read the book

C. to arouse readers’ curiosity to read more books on irrelevant topics

D. to spark readers’ interests in finding the book and reading it

3. Which of the following is NOT true about the “dos”?

A. Before writing a book review, you’d better read it thoroughly or many times.

B. Write down your

C. If you are interested in certain situation in the book, you can hardly give it too much importance

in your review.

D. A good review consists of a proper introduction and a conclusion, as well as a nice-structured

subject body.

4.The following statements are “don’ts” when writing a summary except

A. going through reference books or articles on your subject, before you start preparing your article

B. presenting all the detailed description of the book in the summary

C. the thought or action of putting anything irrelevant to the book into the summary

D. any forms of copying the text from others’ written work

There were so many nights when I, as a young boy, had to watch helplessly as my father verbally and physically abused my mother. I can still recall the smell of alcohol, see the fear in my mother’s eyes, and feel the hopeless misery that comes when we see people we love hurting each other in incomprehensible ways.

I would not wish that experience on anyone, especially not a child. If I settle down in those memories, I can feel myself wanting to hurt my father back, in the same ways he hurts my mother and in ways of which I was incapable as a small boy. I see my mother’s face and I see this gentle human being whom I loved so very much and who did nothing to deserve the pain imposed upon her.

When I recall this story, I realize how difficult the process of forgiving truly is. Intellectually, I know my father caused pain because he was in pain. Spiritually, I know my faith tells me my father deserves to be forgiven as God forgive us all. But it is still difficult. The sufferings we have witnessed or experienced live on in our memories. Even years later they can cause us fresh pain each time we recall them.

Are you hurt and suffering? Is the injury new, or is it an old, unhealed wound? Know that what was done to you was wrong, unfair, and undeserved. You are right to be outraged. And it is perfectly normal to want to hurt back when you have been hurt. But hurting back rarely satisfies. We think it will, but it doesn’t. If I slap you after you slap me, it does not lessen the sting I feel on my own face, nor does it weaken my sadness as to the fact you have struck me. Revenge gives, at best, only momentary relief from our emotional pain. The only way to experience healing and peace is to forgive. Until we can forgive, we remain locked in our pain and locked out of the possibility of experiencing healing and freedom; locked out of the possibility of being at peace.

Without forgiveness, we remain tied to the person who harmed us. We are bound with chains of bitterness, trapped. Until we can forgive the person who harmed us, that person will hold the keys to our happiness; that person will be our jailer (监狱看守).

When we forgive, we take back control of our own fate and our feelings. We become our own liberators. Forgiveness, in other words, is the best form of self-interest. This is true both spiritually and scientifically. We don’t forgive to help the other person. We don’t forgive for others. We forgive for ourselves.

1.Why did the writer mention the story of his father’s abuse of his mom?

A. Because he loved his mom and wanted to fight back someday.

B. Because his father finally realized his own mistake and was forgiven.

C. Because witnessing his mom’s suffering is still hurting him and has no way to relieve.

D. Because he felt that he was spiritually relieved from the pain through forgiveness.

2.The writer wrote the article in order to tell people that

A. we may never heal our pains or sufferings in the heart unless we learn to forgive

B. we should never forget the sufferings buried in our hearts

C. we may get tied to the person who harmed us all through life

D. we shouldn’t worry about the pains we caused, since forgiving is always easier than imagined

3.What is the 4th paragraph mainly about?

A. Hurting back does no good to relieving one’s own hurts, but forgiving.

B. If someone slaps you, you just slap back, which will lessen your pain.

C. The sufferings we have witnessed or experienced will live on in our memories for ever.

D. After being hurt, if one wants to experience healing and freedom, he should forget the hurt.

4.Which of the following statements is the closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?

A. In order to help others, we should stop forgiving and fight back.

B. The purpose of our forgiving is not to help other people.

C. Our forgiving is also useful to helping others, though they may have hurt us.

D. Only by forgiving others can we help them to be good people.

Energy independence. It has a nice sense to it, doesn’t it? If you think so, you’re not alone, because energy independence has been the dream of American presidents for decades, and never more so than in the past few years, when the most recent oil price shock has been partly responsible for kicking off the great recession.

“Energy independence” and its rhetorical (修辞的) companion “energy security” are, however, slippery concepts that are rarely thought through. What is it we want independence from, exactly? Most people would probably say that they want to be independent from imported oil. But there are reasons that we buy all that oil from elsewhere.

The first reason is that we need it to keep our economy running. Yes, there is a trickle (涓涓细流) of bio-fuel available, and more may become available, but most bio-fuels cause economic waste and environmental destruction.

Second, Americans have basically decided that they don’t really want to produce all their own oil. They value the environmental quality they preserve over their oil imports from abroad. Vast areas of the United States are off-limits to oil exploration and production in the name of environmental protection. To what extent are Americans really willing to endure the environmental impacts of domestic energy production in order to cut back imports?

Third, there are benefits to trade. It allows for economic efficiency, and when we buy things from places that have lower production costs than we do, we benefit. And although you don’t read about this much, the United States is also a large exporter of oil products, selling abut 2 million barrels of petroleum products per day to about 90 countries.

There is no question that the United States imports a great deal of energy and, in fact, relies on that steady flow to maintain its economy. When that flow is interrupted, we feel the pain in short supplies and higher prices. At the same time, we derive massive economic benefits when we buy the most affordable energy on the world market and when we engage in energy trade around the world.

1. According to the passage, energy independence will make America

A. ensure international security

B. realize everyone’s dream

C. bring oil prices down

D. sound very attractive

2. In the author’s view, bio-fuels

A. keep America’s economy running quickly

B. do not provide a sustainable energy supply

C. prove to be a good alternative to petroleum

D. can be produced in large quantity in a short time

3. Why does America depend on oil imports a lot?

B. It wants to keep its own environment undamaged.

C. Its own oil reserves are quickly being used up.

D. Its own oil production falls short of demand.

4. The writer’s purpose in the passage is

A. to arouse American’s awareness of the energy crisis

B. to explain the increase of international oil trade

C. to justify American’s dependence on oil imports

D. to stress the importance of energy conservation

料ELP43题型阅读四选一语篇类型记叙文限时:10分钟词数:342

The year was 1993 and the Detroit Tigers were playing with the New York Yankees. When my son began dropping gentle hints that a game would take place at Tiger Stadium on Mother’s Day that year, I already knew who they were playing with! “Hey Mom, would you like to go to see the Tigers play with the Yankees?” My senior high son asked with a playful look. I just smiled.

There had been a lot of talk about a new stadium in place of the one that stood proudly on the corner of Michigan and Trumbull in Detroit. As I sat in the seating section, I wondered how the old place could actually become a thing of the past. It was so alive; the stadium was full of watchers and the excitement with two good ball teams and the smell of popcorn.

The announcer recognized all Mothers and each one received a gift which I still have today. Don Mattingly was a favorite ball player of my son and he was one of many players that made up the team that beat the Tiger’s that May Day. While we drank our favourite soft drink, we watched the guy with the number 23 shirt hit a home run during the game. The fans went wild. The Yankees won 11 to 2.

Part of the excitement comes from a visit to the old ballpark. While the music played, everyone stood and sang Take Me to the Ballgame. It was part of the fun about a trip to the ballpark; and it didn’t matter who you were cheering for.

The last game played at Tiger Stadium was in 1999 against the Kansas City Royals. We had moved to South Carolina in 1997, but my son was working in Detroit. The old stadium is still standing; I guess they just didn’t have the heart to tear down a piece of history. What I didn’t realize at the time was that it would be the last game I would attend with my now grown son together.

1. What can we infer from the first paragraph?

A. The writer was a fan of the ball game.

B. The ball game took place on the May Day.

C. Her son was one of the ball players.

D. The Detroit Tigers would lose the game.

2. What did the writer mainly want to tell us in the second paragraph?

A. People were all expecting a new stadium.

C. More people were interested in the game.

D. The writer liked the old stadium very much.

3. According to the passage, Don Mattingly

A. was the best player in the Tigers

B. belonged to the Yankees

C. was the writer’s favorite ball player

D. wore the number 32 shirt in the game

4. What happened to the Tiger Stadium after the game in 1999?

A. It was torn down.

B. It was used for other purposes.

C. It was still used for the game.

(C)

“Does my smile look big in this?” Future fitting-room mirrors in clothing stores could subtly adjust your reflection to make you look ─ and hence feel ─ happier, encouraging you to like what you see. That’s the idea behind the Emotion Evoking System developed by Shigeo Yoshida and colleagues at the University of Tokyo in Japan. The system can manipulate, or in other word, control your emotions and personal preferences by presenting you with an image of your own smiling or frowning face.

The principle that physiological changes can drive emotional ones ─ that laughter comes before happiness, rather than the other way around ─ is a well-established idea.

The researchers wanted to see if this idea could be used to build a computer system that manipulates how you feel. The system works by presenting the user with a web-camera image of his or her face ─ as if they were looking in a mirror. The image is then subtly altered with software, turning the corners of the mouth up or down and changing the area around the eyes, so that the person appears to smile or frown (皱眉).

Without telling them the aim of the study, the team recruited (招募) 21 volunteers and asked them to sit in front of the screen while performing an unrelated task. When the task was complete the participants rated how they felt. When the faces on screen appeared to smile, people reported that they felt happier. On the other hand, when the image was given a sad expression, they reported feeling less happy.

Yoshida and his colleagues tested whether manipulating the volunteers’ emotional state would influence their preferences. Each person was given a scarf to wear and again presented with the altered webcam image. The volunteers that saw themselves smiling while wearing the scarf were more likely to report that they liked it, and those that saw themselves not smiling were less likely. The system could be used to manipulate consumers’ impressions of products, say the researchers. For example, mirrors in clothing-store fitting rooms could be replaced with screens showing altered reflections. They also suggest people may be more likely to find clothes attractive if they see themselves looking happy while trying them on.

“It’s certainly an interesting area,” says Chris Creed at the University of Birmingham, UK. But he notes that using such technology in a shop would be harder than in the lab, because people will use a wide range of expressions. “Attempting to make slight differences to these and ensuring that the reflected image looks believable would be much more challenging,” he says.

Of course, there are also important moral questions surrounding such subtly manipulative technology. “You could argue that if it makes people happy what harm is it doing?” says Creed. “But I can imagine that many people may feel manipulated, uncomfortable and cheated if they found out.”

1. What’s the main purpose of the Emotion Evoking System?

A. To see whether one’s feeling can be unconsciously affected.

B. To see whether one’s facial expressions can be altered.

C. To see whether laughter comes before happiness.

D. To replace the mirrors in future clothing-store fitting rooms.

2. What can we learn about the web-camera image in the study?

A. It recorded the volunteers’ performance in the task.

B. It gave the volunteers a false image.

C. It attempted to make the volunteers feel happier.

D. It beautified the volunteers’ appearance in the mirror.

3. What does Creed mention as a limitation of the technology?

A. It only changes the areas around the mouth and the eyes.

B. It only works in clothing stores.

C. It only makes subtle changes to people’s expressions.

4. What does Creed’s comment on the moral issues with this technology imply?

B. Technology is unable to manipulate people.

C. People should make their decisions independently.

D. People should neglect the harm of the technology.

The $19 billion that Facebook Inc. is paying for a smartphone application made jaws drop, even in Silicon Valley.

But analysts say the purchase of WhatsApp could pay off for Facebook as it takes on Google Inc.

and other technology giants in the race to be the next big thing in mobile.

The battle for mobile

Technology giants are fighting for their future as consumers switch their loyalties from personal computers to mobile devices. By 2015, 5 billion people are expected to be carrying around the tiny computers in their pockets.

As a result, quick startups that have outpaced their grown-up rivals in building popular mobile services have become takeover targets.

Just last year Facebook offered $3 billion for Los Angeles-based messaging company Snapchat, but was turned down. WhatsApp, a tiny California company, was a far bigger prize.

With 450 million users, WhatsApp is the market leader in mobile messaging. Chief Executive Jan Koum says his company’s goal from the start was “to be on every single smartphone in the world.”Facebook is betting WhatsApp can help it go beyond competitors in messaging, the new communication medium of choice.

Survival at stake (在紧急关头)

The stakes could not be higher for Facebook. More people are communicating on their mobile devices rather than sending information to hundreds of friends on social networks. Its very survival depends on its ability to obtain the new ways people are connecting and sharing.

By that logic, the price Facebook is paying for WhatsApp isn’t so bubbly (多泡的), said David Wessels, a finance professor at the University of Pennsylvania.

“As a stand-alone company, WhatsApp is clearly not worth $19 billion, period,” Wessels said. “But by no means would I consider this unreasonable. Would you give away 10 percent of your company to extend the life of your company?”

A wise investment?

At first, Facebook investors did experience what analyst Arvind Bhatia called “sticker shock” after learning that Facebook planned to pay $19 billion for WhatsApp, a company that had declared it had no plans to make money any time soon.

But investors quickly neglected concerns. Shares of Facebook briefly hit a record high the day after the sale was announced.

Facebook is certainly not alone in placing sky-scraping evaluations on unproven startups, analysts say.

Blogging service Tumblr sold to Yahoo Inc. for more than $1 billion. Dozens more startups are valued at $1 billion or more.

Facebook is quick to point out that WhatsApp reached 450 million users faster than any company in history.

1. The phrase “take on” in the second paragraph most probably means

A. show off

B. compete with

C. cooperate with

D. object to

2.75 Why do the technology giants start the battle for mobile according to the passage?

A. Because they all want to become number one in the field of technology.

B. Because all of them wish every customer to use tiny computers.

C. Because consumers prefer mobile devices to computers.

D. Because mobile devices are the latest technology at present.

3. According to the passage, what does the author imply?

A. Facebook’s decision is correct and reasonable.

B. Facebook’s decision is incorrect and unreasonable.

C. Facebook’s decision is acceptable but unreasonable.

D. Facebook’s decision is bright but adventurous.

4. What is the best title for the passage?

A. The Revolutionary about Mobile Devices

B. Facebook Inc. and WhatsApp

C. How Technology Giants Grow

D. What’s Up with WhatsApp

Rugby looks like a mixture of soccer and American football. In Rugby, players carry the ball, kick the ball and tackle (拦截抢球) one another. Men, women and children play it in more than 120 countries.

Legend says rugby was invented in 1823 at a school in the town of Rugby, England. One of the school’s students, a young man named William Webb Ellis, was playing in a soccer match. But he got bored with just kicking the ball, so he picked it up and ran with it. Before long, this new way of playing soccer became popular at the school. When the school’s students finished their studies, they moved to other parts of Britain, taking the new game, which they called rugby, with them. Before long, they and others established rugby clubs throughout Britain and in British colonies around the world.

By the 1870s, there were many rugby clubs in Britain and elsewhere, but they weren’t all playing rugby the same way. To solve this problem, representatives from twenty-two teams met and agreed on official rugby regulations. They also founded an association of rugby teams, called the Rugby Football Union (RFU).

Today, Rugby Union World Cup tournaments are held every four years. The first one occurred in 1987 with Australia and New Zealand hosting. The next World Cup will happen in 2015 and will be hosted by England. Thousands of fans will travel to attend the matches and cheer on their favorite teams. Believe it or not, not one team who’s won the Rugby World Cup has managed to win the next World Cup! But players and fans don’t mind. They just enjoy the game.

1.What is this article mainly about?

A. An institution for disabled youngsters.

B. An activity which provides recreation.

C. A yearly competition with huge prizes.

D. A community with an interesting history.

2.What did William Webb Ellis do differently?

A. He kicked the ball repeatedly.

B. He beat balls after matches.

C. He held the ball in his hands.

D. He threw the ball really well.

3.What did the clubs finally confirm in the 1870s?

A. A united legal defense

B. Plans for new stadiums

C. Standard rules of play

4.What does this article tell us about the Rugby Union World Cup?

A. How frequently it takes place

B. How mechanical it’s become

C. How officials plan to change it

D. How well journalists cover it

Conventional wisdom says that hardship can make us old before our time. In fact, a new study suggests that violence not only leaves longterm scars on children’s bodies, but also changes their DNA, causing changes that are equal to seven to ten years of premature aging.

Scientists measured this by studying the ends of children’s chromosomes(染色体), called telomeres, says Idan Shalev, lead author of a study published in Molecular Psychiatry.

Telomeres are special DNA sequences which prevent the DNA in chromosomes from separating. They get shorter each time a cell divides, until a cell cannot divide anymore and dies.

Several factors have been found to shorten telomeres, including smoking, radiation and

psychological stresses such as being treated badly when young and taking care of a chronically ill person.

In this study, researchers examined whether exposure to violence could make children’s telomeres shorten faster than normal. They interviewed the mothers of 236 children at ages 5, 7 and 10, asking whether the youngsters had been exposed to domestic violence between the mother and her partner; physical maltreatment by an adult; or bullying. Researchers measured the children’s telomeres—in cells obtained by swabbing the insides of their cheeks — at ages 5 and 10.

Telomeres shortened faster in kids exposed to two or more types of violence, says Shalev. Unless that pattern changes, the study suggests, these kids could be expected to develop diseases of aging, such as heart attacks or memory loss, seven to 10 years earlier than their peers.

Shalev says there is hope for these kids. His study found that, in rare cases, telomeres can lengthen. Better nutrition, exercise and stress reduction are three things that may be able to lengthen telomeres, he says.

The study confirms a small but growing number of studies suggesting that early childhood adversity imprints itself in our chromosomes, says Charles Nelson, a professor of pediatrics and neuroscience at Harvard Medical School.

D. Children who have shorter telomeres may have a heart attack earlier.

Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.

It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from population, it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If on the other hand we take two identical twins, they will very probably be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.

Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might

send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degrees of intelligence.

1. Which of these sentences best describes the writer’s point in Paragraph 1?

A. To some extent, intelligence is given at birth.

B. Intelligence is developed by the environment.

C. Some people are born clever and others born stupid.

D. Intelligence is fixed at birth, but is developed by the environment.

B. unrelated people are not likely to have different intelligence

C. the closer the blood relationship between people, the more different they are likely to be in

intelligence

intelligence

3.The phrase “ at random” (Line 3, Para.2) means

A. purposely

B. intendedly

C. aimlessly

D. independently

4. The best title for this article would be

A. What Does Intelligence Mean?

B. On Intelligence

C. We are Born with Intelligence

D. Environment Plays a Part in Developing Intelligence

Mountain regions are not just playgrounds for the richer citizens on the planet, however. The disappearing snows of Mount Kilimanjaro are a worrying sign that nowhere is safe from the adverse effects of human actions.The United Nations has identified three main areas that need to be addressed to ensure the future safety of the world’s mountains. These are: the protection of mountain ecosystems, the encouragement of peace and stability in mountain regions, and assistance for mountain people to maintain their ways of life.

From the busy cities of India to the farmlands of California, more than half the world’s population is dependent on mountains for their fresh water supply. Global warming, deforestation, mining and heavy farming seriously damage breakable mountain ecosystems and put vital fresh water sources at risk.

Mountain regions host a large proportion of the world’s wars. From Afghanistan to the Balkans and the Andes to many parts of Africa, territorial(领土的)and drug related conflicts have damaging effects on the local environment and the lives of the local people. Fighting makes essential tasks such as farming impossible. Land mines make large areas of potential farming ground unusable. Also schools, roads, bridges and other important infrastructure(基础设施)are left in ruins. Mountain people are among the poorest, least represented groups on the earth. They face many hardships and each day can be, “a test of survival”. Damage to mountain ecosystems worsens their situation and leaves them even more unprotected to disease and ‘natural’ disasters such as floods and landslides. It’s been recommended that forest profit should be reinvested in mountain communities and the people living there should be given a stronger political voice. Their fate is in many ways directly connected with that of people living at sea level.

There is an old motto for visitors to the countryside which advises them to leave nothing but footprints.It is still as relevant today as it always was. Unfortunately, the size of our footprints seems to be getting larger.

1. What the writer discussed in the previous sections is most probably about .

A. mountain ecosystems

B. mountain regions

D. mountain sports

2.. The word “adverse” (paragraph 1) is closest in meaning to “__________”.

A. direct

B. harmful

C. positive

D. powerful

3.. Wars have directly brought the following effects EXCEPT __________.

A. inadequate supply of fresh water

B. impossible farming

C. mountain people’s poor living condition

D. ruined infrastructure

4. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?

A. Mountain people have enough political voice to protect themselves.

B. More money should be raised to establish mountain communities.

C. Worsened ecosystems put mountain people’s lives under threat.

英语尖子生培养计划和措施 对于一班的尖子生培养题我的计划就是:寻求合适的方法 尖子生培养除了投入充足的时间和精力外,还要寻求合适的方法,抓住关键,突出重点。培养尖子生,主要任务应是为他们创设一个良好的学习和生活环境,加强学法指导和心理辅导,补短扬长,发展个性,不断壮大尖子生队伍。我从我的工作实践中,摸索到的方法概括为“早、宽、和、补、扬、导”6个字:第一,早——行动早、计划早。第二,宽——宽松的环境、宽广的胸怀。第三,和——和睦的师师、师生、生生关系。第四,补——补人数、补不足。第五,扬——发扬优势、张扬个性?。第六,导——学习指导、心理辅导。 对于英语尖子生的培养对策有如下几点: 1.合理利用教师的期望效应,扩大英语学科尖子阵容 从心理学角度上讲,教师的期望能在有意无意之间对学生的学习英语的积极性产生重要影响。在课堂教学的互动过程中,我会利用一切可以利用的机会努力去发现学生身上所表现出来的亮点,将自己的期望和态度积极地传递给他们,这可以有效给予学生学习英语的动力,激发他们学习英语的热情,使他们向好的方向发展。 2.对待尖子生要“特殊化” 在课堂上设计特殊的学习任务。众所周知,教师在平时教学中,尖子生往往会“吃不饱”,那么作为教师,我们不妨给他们设计一项特殊的学习任务,让他们感到在课堂上还有好多东西可吃。长(2)在课后布置特殊的作业。为了帮助学生巩固四会单词,平时老师往往会让同学们抄写单词,可是对尖子生而言,单词的记忆只是小菜一碟,他们会觉得抄写是多余的,这时教师不妨让他们写一篇小短文,而这篇短文里面得包括这几个单词。我想这样的作业就具有了一定的挑战性,我们的尖子生也一定会有浓厚的兴趣,因为这样能让他们有更大的空间来想象、来创新。 3.鼓励尖子生多阅读、多写作 教师要让尖子生多读一些课外文章,每天读一点,哪怕是一个小段落。当然教师要挑选一些符合小学生年龄特点的读物,趣味性较强的童话故事,或富有哲理性的寓言故事,当然偶尔也可以推荐一些小诗歌。课外阅读不仅能丰富他们的知识,还能增加他们的词汇量,为此,我给一班同学们补充了新东方美文,也在校图书馆借阅了一定的英文杂志,同学们很感兴趣,收获很多,也扩大了知识面。 4.提高尖子生的自主学习能力。尖子生具有高度的自觉性、有优秀的分析问题和解决问题的能力,也许已经具有一定的自主学习能力,我们教师应该再给予他们一点指点,来提高他们的自主学习能力。 (1)培养尖子生良好的学习习惯,是提高他们自主学习能力的前提。古语有云:“授人以鱼,不如授人以渔!”在平常的教学中,教师要注意渗透和指导学生学习方法,引导学生主动、积极地学习,而不是被老师牵着走。况且我们的尖子生领悟能力、接受能力都很强,是完全有能力领会老师的方法的,因为他们有时比老师想象中的还要强。他们自己会尝试着去寻找一些新的方法,久而久之,他们的自学能力也就逐渐提高了。 (2)设立竞争机制,是提高尖子生自主学习能力的动力 高中生的年龄特征决定了他们争强好胜、不肯服输的心理,而我们的尖子生表现得更为要强,更希望自己能取得胜利。没有竞争就没有动力。教师要为每一个尖子生找一名竞争对手,当然这名竞争对手也得是尖子生,要不然就没太大的竞争意义。教师可以设置一些竞争的项目,如看谁的作业完成得好,看谁的作文写得好,看谁读的课外文章多,看谁在学习中提出的经典问题多等等,作业的评比可以每天都进行,提出问题的多少和作文可以一周一次,至于阅读课外书,可以每月一次,通过词汇量的积累和运用来评比。这里教师可以为学生准备一个

高中英语阅读理解专项练习二(含答案)

A “You can use me as a last resort(选择), and if nobody else volunteers,then I will do it.” This was an actual reply from a parent after I put out a request for volunteers for my kids lacrosse(长曲棍球)club. I guess that there's probably some demanding work schedule, or social anxiety around stepping up to help for an unknown sport. She may just need a little persuading. So I try again and tug at the heartstrings. I mention the single parent with four kids running the show and I talk about the dad coaching a team that his kids aren’t even on … At this point the unwilling parent speaks up,“Alright. Yes, I’ll do it.” I’m secretly relieved because I know there’s real power in sharing volunteer responsibilities among many. The unwilling parent organizes the meal schedule, sends out emails, and collects money for end-of-season gifts. Somewhere along the way, the same parent ends up becoming an invaluable member of the team. The coach is able to focus on the kids while the other parents are relieved to be off the hook for another season. Handing out sliced oranges to bloodthirsty kids can be as exciting as watching your own kid score a goal. Still, most of us volunteers breathe a sigh of relief when the season comes to a close. That relief is coupled with a deep understanding of why the same people keep coming back for more: Connecting to the community(社区)as you freely give your time, money, skills, or services

(完整版)高中英语阅读理解的答题方法和技巧

高中英语阅读理解的答题方法和技巧 一、先看题干,带着问题读文章。 即先看试题,再读文章。阅读题干,首先要掌握问题的类型,分清是客观信息题还是主观判断题。客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案;而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调,作者未加陈述的观点以及贯穿全文的中心主旨的理解等,这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次,了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息,然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读,对有关信息进行快速定位,再将相关信息进行整合、甄别、分析、对比,有根有据地排除干扰项,选出正确答案。此法加强了阅读的针对性,提高了做题的准确率,节省了宝贵的时间。特别适用于对图形表格类题材的理解。 二、速读全文,了解大意知主题。 阅读的目的是获取信息。一个人的阅读能力的高低决定了他能否快速高效吸收有用信息。阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力。没有一定的阅读速度就不能顺利地输入信息,更谈不上运用英语。近几年的高考阅读速度大约是每分钟40个词左右。考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读,搜寻关键词、主题句,捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点,并且理清文章脉络,把握语篇实质。

抓主题句这是快速掌握文章大意的主要方法。主题句一般出现在文章的开头和结尾。用归纳法撰写的文章,都是表述细节的句子在前,概述性的句子居后。此时主题句就是文章的最后一句。通常用演绎法撰写的文章,大都遵循从一般到个别的写作程序,即从概述开始,随之辅以细说。这时,主题句就是文章的第一句。当然也有些文章没有主题句,需要读者自己去归纳。主题句往往对全文起提示、启迪、概括、归纳之作用,主旨大意题,归纳概括题,中心思想题往往直接可从主题句中找到答案。 三、详读细节,理顺思路与文章脉络。 文章绝不是互不相干的句子杂乱无章的堆砌。作者为文,有脉可循。如记叙文多以人物为中心,以时间或空间为线索,按事件的发生、发展、结局展开故事;论述体则包含论点、论据、结论三大要素,通过解释、举例来阐述观点。你可根据文章的特点,详读细节,以动词、时间、地点、事件、因果等为线索,找出关键词语,运用"画图列表法",勾画出一幅完整清晰的文章主题和细节的认知图。 四、逻辑推理,做好深层理解题。 在实际阅读中,有时作者并未把意图说出来,阅读者要根据字面意思,通过语篇逻辑关系,研究细节的暗示,推敲作者的态度,理解文章的寓义。这就是通常所说的深层理解。深层理解主要包括归纳概括题(中心思想,加标题等)和推理判断题,是阅读理解中的难点。深层理解是一

(完整word版)高中尖子生的培养方案

重点学习 一、在优生培养中,学校应做好宏观上的调控与规划 优生培养是一个系统工程,是一个长期的过程,学校应从宏观上考虑,在培养优生上给予最大程度的支持,选好班主任及课任教师。班主任要求有亲和力、有耐心、有激情、知识全面、能力强、有点子、能不拘一格、敢于大胆创新,课任教师要求专业功底深厚、有事业心、勤于钻研、在教学上见解独到、敢突破常规大胆进行创新性教学。学校应给集训班相对宽松的政策,用人不疑,疑人不用,放手集训班教师按照自己的想法进行教育教学,不以管理为名盲目指导,在集训班的后勤保障上加大投入,教师配备好笔记本电脑,教室装配好多媒体设备,任课教师在资料选择上有较大的自主权、在外出学习上优先考虑。同时,对于集训班的学生学校要从高一开始做好长期的培养计划,高中三年一盘棋,高一、高二着力于提升学生的综合素质,主抓各学科竞赛辅导,高三着眼于知识体系的完备、能力体系的形成、应试心理的调适、应试技能的提高等。 二、高一、高二着力提升学生的综合素质,大力搞好学科竞赛辅导工作 1、培养优生的精英意识。作为学校集训班的学生,是根据学生考试成绩精挑细选而来的,他们在学习上是同年级学生中的精英,但在其他方面是不是精英呢?因此,在高一时就应该给他们灌输精英意识,引导他们在其他方面也成为精英,以便将来成为社会的精英、国家的栋梁。要求他们要有良好的道德情操、懂感恩、有修养、心地善良、内心纯洁;要求他们懂得体谅父母、懂得尊重他人、懂得关心社会、有强烈的社会责任感;要求他们以精英的标准来要求自己,时时处处以优秀为习惯,不仅在学习上勇争第一,而且在其他方面也要勇争第一、那怕是扫个地,擦个黑板也要搞到第一,不仅要高分更要高能。 2、强化优生的名校意识。通过播放有关名牌大学介绍的视频,通过听取本校考取清华、北大学生的讲座及每年暑期与清华大学中美支教队的同学面对面的交流,激发学生树立远大的理想,志存高远,增强考取清华北大等名校的意识,从而为他的学习注入强劲的学习动力,激发斗志。

教学反思英语尖子生培养计划和措施

教学反思 英语尖子生培养计划和措施 尖子生是学生中比较突出的群体,如何使他们在高中阶段得以充分和全面的 发展,成为高中教育必须面对的问题。今年我带的2个尖子班也呈现出与往届不 同的特点,对他们的培养和教育,成为我英语教学中的不断反思和寻求提高的一 个课题。下面我就这学期的心得和反思总结如下,接下来我会在这几个方面努力 进取. (一)寻求合适的方法——尖子生培养的要领 尖子生培养除了投入充足的时间和精力外,还要寻求合适的方法,抓住关键,突出重点。培养尖子生,主要任务应是为他们创设一个良好的学习和生活 环境,加强学法指导和心理辅导,补短扬长,发展个性,不断壮大尖子生队伍。我从我的工作实践中,摸索到的方法概括为“早、宽、和、补、扬、导”6个字:第一,早——行动早、计划早。第二,宽——宽松的环境、宽广的胸怀。第三,和——和睦的师师、师生、生生关系。第四,补——补人数、补不足。第五,扬——发扬优势、张扬个性。第六,导——学习指导、心理辅导。 (二) 英语尖子生的培养对策 1.合理利用教师的期望效应,扩大英语学科尖子阵容 从心理学角度上讲,教师的期望不同于一般的预言,它一旦形成,就左右了 教师对学生的态度方式,它能在有意无意之间对学生的学习英语的积极性产生 重要影响。在课堂教学的互动过程中,教师可利用一切可以利用的机会努力去 发现学生身上所表现出来的亮点,将自己的期望和态度积极地传递给他们,这 可以有效给予学生学习英语的动力,激发他们学习英语的热情,使他们向好的 方向发展,并且一直关注他们的学习和成长。学生会按照期望的方式来调动学 习的动力和塑造自己的行为,形成较高的自律能力,鞭策自己不断努力学习。2.对待尖子生要“特殊化” (1)在课堂上设计特殊的学习任务 众所周知,教师在教学中,主要是针对大部分的中层生而设计的,尖子生往 往就会“吃不饱”,那么作为教师,我们不妨给他们设计一项特殊的学习任务, 让他们感到在课堂上还有好多东西可吃。比如在教学“Let’s read”的时候,对尖

高三英语教学论文 高考尖子生经验分享英语140分学习技巧

高考尖子生经验分享英语140分学习技巧 在今年的高考中,我以较好成绩考入清华大学,其中英语成绩为140分。我愿意把学到的一些方法,并结合自己的英语应考经验与体会介绍给大家,希望能对各位有所帮助。我从两个方面讲: 一是平时怎样打好基础,二是高考前怎样冲刺。 1. 平时打好基础。 一般来说,高一高二是打基础的黄金时期,此时掌握科学的方法,会使你的词汇量、语感和语言运用能力都会迅速提高。方法: (1) 扎实学好课本,重视记录和整理笔记。高中老师一般会把课文中的语法点集中讲解。要做到认真听讲,详细记下词汇、词组和它们的衍生词汇及其搭配。最好记录老师的例句。回家一定要整理笔记,对于不甚清楚的地方,可以通过查词典进行补充。较好的词典如朗文的《英汉多功能词典》。 (2)要坚持背诵好的文章。我高一高二每周背诵一篇课文,这对增加词汇量和增强语感有很大帮助。 (3)扩大阅读量,多读原著。我高一高二读了许多英文原著小说,并摘录其中的好句子,练习写出段落大意。我感到读原著可以提高学习英语的兴趣,在愉快的阅读中,不知不觉中提高了英语水平。 2. 考前科学冲刺。 英语高考题分为听力、单项选择、完形填空、阅读理解和写作五项。我想分别说一说我的应考经验。

(1) 听力。以模拟练习为主。书店里这方面的参考书很多,内容大同小异,可以挑一两本,每周做三四套自测题,还可以每天早晨听CRI的英语新闻,只要听懂主要意思就可以了。 (2) 单项选择。我建议不要花太多功夫做题、抠语法,只要把老师课上讲的弄懂就可以了,我高考前每天只用五分钟时间做这项工作。有的同学觉得自己在这类题上总出错,便花费大量时间做题,其实效果并不好。以扩大阅读来提高这方面的能力可以收到事半功倍的效果。 (3) 完形填空。可以每天做一篇练习,重要的是要对照答案找出出错的原因,所以最好选择每道题的答案附有详细解释的参考书。要多总结,争取培养出“题感”,就是当你面对几个模棱两可的答案时,可以揣摩到出题人的意图,从而选出正确的选项。同样,完形填空也可以通过扩大阅读来带动。 (4) 阅读理解。一定要坚持每天做两三篇阅读理解练习。我高三期间做过七八百篇阅读练习。对于做错的题,一定要认真分析,让自己的思路向答案的思路靠拢。很多时候,当我们选错了选项时,仍然觉得自己很有道理,此时要果断地中断自己的思路,静下心来为答案找理由。书店里这种书也很多,挑选时要注意质量,要挑选权威出版社出版的,最好答案后有分析,这样可以避免被印刷错误的答案误导。阅读理解的题目都出自原文,做题的时候紧紧围绕原文考虑问题。我在阅读时喜欢把文章中和题目有关的句段画出来,以防止自己想当然。做题时就从这些句段中分析作者的思路和写作意图,从而找出正确的答案。总之,做阅读理解题既不能想得太多,又不能想得太少,这中间有一个分寸,练习做得多了,自然就掌握了。我在英语高考中阅读理解得了满分,就得益于这个方法。 (5) 写作。写作很容易在短时间内有大的飞跃,要做的就是积累一些经典的句型、地道的表达方式。我在备考期间读了一本美国中学生的作文集,把精彩的段落和句子抄下来并仿写几句,最后整理出几十个最常用、最精彩的表达法,写作文时有意识地想一想,总能用上几个。

化“偶然”为“必然” ——培养高考英语尖子生的粗浅体会 广东高州中学范瑞莲 在今年的高考中,我所教的两个班都取得了优异的成绩。(1)班是重点班,平均分高达118.8分,(2)班是普通班,平均分为99.2分,都在同类班级中最高。尤其是尖子生方面,(1)班最高分141分,130分以上有13人,有3人进入茂名市前十名;(2)班最高分132分,120分以上有10人,远远胜于同类班级。那尖子生是如何培养出来的呢?下面我想就这个问题谈谈自己的一些常规做法和粗浅体会。 高考备考的重要工作之一是让有潜力的学生“脱颖而出”。作为从教高三多年的英语老师,我一直在摸索着如何培养尖子生。不少人说高考尖子生是“有心栽花花不开,无心插柳柳成荫”,可遇而不可求,这说明高考尖子生有一定的偶然性。但我们不能听任自然,听天由命,而要采取相应的有效措施,化“偶然”为“必然”,有目的、有步骤地让尖子生凸现出来。 一、精心“选苗”,选准培养对象 高考是选拔性考试,鼓励冒尖。除了要努力使更多的考生考上大学以外,高考备考的另外一个重要工作就是让真正有潜力的学生“脱颖而出”,因此,作为高三教师,在自己现有的学生中精心选拔好苗子,明确尖子生的培养对象,就显得非常重要。 首先从智力因素方面入手。接手(1)、(2)班后,我查看了他们以往的总分成绩和单科成绩,上课留心观察,研究入高三以来的几次考试成绩,细心分析他们的得失分情况,然后选定对象。象张炜敏、冯韶祥、湛仲丹、张晓等,他们具有与众不同的思维特征,能既分析又综合地思考问题,善于从一种认知过程转化为另一种认知过程,善于用复杂结构表达本来平淡的内容,思维灵活,善于联想,善于进行概括和类比。 其次是从非智力因素方面考虑。尖子生对学习有浓厚的兴趣和爱好,在学习过程中显示出其他学生所缺乏的良好的语感。他们视学习为乐事,主动参与主动探究,有较好的发展潜质。更重要的是,他们都有良好的书写习惯,答卷工整规范,这可是得高分不可忽视的一个重要因素。 二、耐心“育苗”,保证充足营养 1.课堂上给尖子生加餐。除了完成一般的教学任务外,我还针对班级特点设计一些分层次的教学内容或练习,让中下层的学生消化巩固上课内容,而尖子生又有时间和空间去钻研更深广的知识。如,在讲at all这个词组时,我把这个知

外研版高中英语必修一《阅读理解》专项练习题(含答案)

外研版高中英语必修一《阅读理解》专项练习题(含答案) Graham and his friends preferred to shoot up in their arms, necks and legs. A dealer once said Graham was the type who would never be able to turn back and that he expected him to die from the drug. Wendy feared the same, but di dn’t know how to save her son. “ Once, after he’d disappeared for more than a month, I found him at a friend’s house with a bunch of other users,” she said, “I got down on my hands and knees, begging him to come home. He did, but the next morning he was go ne. I don’t know what made him do it, but I drove 20 miles to the nearest train station. Graham was headed for Seattle, his pockets full of drugs. If I hadn’t gotten there in time, I would never have seen him alive again.” The turning point came in 2007, after Graham was arrested yet again for possession. Wendy got a call from the Montana Drugs Project, which works with local law enforcement(强制执行)to keep track of youth-related crimes so it can help families in trouble. Following a counselor’s advice, Wendy hired two men to come to her home in the middle of the night, tie Graham and take him to a treatment program in Thompson Falls, Montana. “I was high when they came and really angry with my mom,” he said, “But if she hadn’t done that, drugs would have killed me.” After six months of treatment, Graham, now 19, came back to Kalispell, where he’s grown close to Wendy once again. “I still have the desires every day and attend support meetings every night,” he said, “But life is worth living again. My mom thinks that’s a miracle. I guess she is right.” 1.The underlined phrase “shoot up” in paragraph 1 probably means_________. A.increase very quickly and suddenly B.put illegal drugs into the body by using a needle C.kill or injure someone by using a gun D.try to achieve a particular aim 2.When the two men came to their home in the middle of the night, Graham _______. A.had just taken drugs and was in the state of excitement. B.was sleeping in a high bed above the ground. C.had just taken drugs and was in the state of suffering. D.was quarrelling with his mother.

高中英语阅读理解题型解读、解题技巧及练习(教师版)

高中阅读理解题型解读(教师版) (一)阅读是获得更综合、更复杂、更精确信息的必要手段,考生在做阅读理解时,不仅要看懂文章的字面意思,还需要针对不同题材和体裁的篇目运用不同的方法作出正确的选择。一般来说,词汇、阅读速度和理解能力是阅读理解中三个最重要且有相互联系的因素。 阅读的方法可以使用以下几种: 1.跳读:就是快速的一步阅读法。实际上是有选择阅读,找关键词。用这种阅读方法回答who、what、when、where之类的问题最为有效。 2.略读:指比跳读慢些的二步阅读法。即泛泛地、粗略地快速阅读,目的是了解大意,对文章有个总的概念。此种阅读方法能回答why、how之类的问题。 3.精读:即最细致、最慢的深层阅读方法,目的是求得对所读文章的全部意义的理解与掌握。 在使用阅读技巧时尽量做到以下几点: 1.带着问题阅读短文。 2.找出主题句、确定中心思想。 3.推断单词、句子和文章的含义。 4.尽快选择答案。 (二)不同体裁文章的特点及解题技巧 1.记叙文 记叙文又可分传记类和故事类。传记类文章在阅读中时间是全文的关键,根据时间我们可以找到相关的事件,抓住文章的主要内容。故事类文章情节性较强,阅读时要注意故事中的时间、地点、人物和发生的事件,这些都是文章中的主要内容和信息,对于准确理解文章十分重要。 2.说明文 说明文是对事物的形状、性质、特征、成果或功用等进行介绍,解释或阐述的文章。把握所说明事物的特征和本质是理解说明文的关键。说明事物特征的方法很多,主要有定义法、解释法、比较法、比喻法、数字法、图表法、引用法和举例法等。 ●数字说明文 在阅读数字说明文时要特别注意文中数字的含义,从这些数字中可以找到文章的主要内容。 ●解释说明文 解释说明文着重说明事物的本质、特征和功用等。许多科普文章都属于这一类。在阅读这类文章时要学会解决what, how, why 等一类的问题。它们是文章的关键。如能带着这些问题阅读,将会更迅速抓住文章的主题。 ●比较说明文 比较说明文是通过对比方法说明问题。在阅读这类文章时要善于把握全篇陈述的基本倾向。作者在谈论一个有争议的问题时总要顾及到争议的各个方面。但是,在一般情况下,作者的陈述总要倾向于某一种观点。 3.应用文 应用文涉及的范围比较广,包括广告、通知、书信等。应用文一般语言简洁,省略及不规范的句子较多。阅读时一般要求考生全面掌握文章中提供的信息,并运用这些信息去解决问题。因此对题干的理解尤为重要。 阅读理解的考题分为客观理解题(是指在短文中客观存在的事实,客观信息的答案一般都可以在原文中找到。即理解文中的具体事实或抽象概念)和主观理解题(这类问题都不可能直接从原文中找到答案,须通过阅读文章对文章主旨和深层含义有更深理解,并据此进行判断和推理)。其中细节理解题和猜测词义题属于客观题;主旨大意题和推理判断题属于主观题。针对不同类型的题目,要在平时的练习过程中,结合具体的题目,给学生进行解题方法

七年级英语优秀生培养计划和措施 对于英语优秀生的培养有如下几点: 1.合理利用教师的期望效应,扩大英语学科尖子阵容 从心理学角度上讲,教师的期望能在有意无意之间对学生的学习英语的积极性产生重要影响。在课堂教学的互动过程中,我会利用一切可以利用的机会努力去发现学生身上所表现出来的亮点,将自己的期望和态度积极地传递给他们,这可以有效给予学生学习英语的动力,激发他们学习英语的热情,使他们向好的方向发展。 2.对待优秀生要“特殊化” 在课堂上设计特殊的学习任务。众所周知,教师在平时教学中,优秀生往往会“吃不饱”,那么作为教师,我们不妨给他们设计一项特殊的学习任务,让他们感到在课堂上还有好多东西可吃。长(2)在课后布置特殊的作业。为了帮助学生巩固四会单词,平时老师往往会让同学们抄写单词,可是对优秀生而言,单词的记忆只是小菜一碟,他们会觉得抄写是多余的,这时教师不妨让他们写一篇小短文,而这篇短文里面得包括这几个单词。我想这样的作业就具有了一定的挑战性,我们的优秀生也一定会有浓厚的兴趣,因为这样能让他们有更大的空间来想象、来创新。 3.鼓励优秀生多阅读、多写作 教师要让优秀生多读一些课外文章,每天读一点,哪怕是一个小段落。当然教师要挑选一些符合小学生年龄特点的读物,趣味性较强的童话故事,或富有哲理性的寓言故事,当然偶尔也可以推荐一些小诗歌。课外阅读不仅能丰富他们的知识,还能增加他们的词汇量,为此,我给一班同学们补充了新东方美文,也在校图书馆借阅了一定的英文杂志,同学们很感兴趣,收获很多,也扩大了知识面。 4.提高优秀生的自主学习能力。优秀生具有高度的自觉性、有优秀的分析问题和解决问题的能力,也许已经具有一定的自主学习能力,我们教师应该再给予他们一点指点,来提高他们的自主学习能力。
