1月17日雅思机经真题回忆浪费食物的原因解决浪费的办法生活水平提升,人们买食物比较随意政府加强监管惩罚力度全球化,网购广告等诱惑人们大量购买食物提升人们节约食物的意识范文:In the current society, with the improving life standard, diet hasbecome ahot topic discussed among citizens who attach importance to what they are goingto eat. As a byproduct of this circumstance, the great amount of wasted food hasbeen an top concern around the world.No one can deny why the waste of food is enormous is because people havingmore money than before are prone to buy more food based on their preferenceinstead of their real needs; as a result, lots of food cannot be consumed, andthe exceeded expense would be one of the main reasons. Meanwhile, taking theglobalization into consideration, the whole world is merging, which means thatvarious products from different areas can be brought to everyone’s life by usingonline shopping, and the sale promotion and advertisements used by the manufacturers are crammed into our daily life; therefore, the increasing temptations and convenience motivate individuals’ curiosity to place orderrepetitively even they do not need, which gradually forms a habit of wasting.However, there is the fact that food is the treasure and is worth to cherishing, so that everyone has the responsibility to save the food. Government, as the maker of all the rules in the society, can formulate the strict principles and implement seriously to prevent people from wasting food,such as improving the supervising system and rising the fine. Besides, comparedwith the punishment, the prevention shouldn’t be ignored. Increasing the awareness of saving food in the society can also contribute to help people tobuild a right concept of consumption, which can be an effective way to solve theproblem from its origin.In conclusion, although the better life offers people more opportunities toexperience new and attractive things, we do need to maintain some good traditions, and the importance of saving food should be noticed.。
雅思(阅读)历年真题试卷汇编17(题后含答案及解析) 题型有:1.You should spend about 20 minutes on Questions 1-13, which are based on Reading Passage 1 below.CLASSIFYING SOCIETIESAlthough humans have established many types of societies throughout history, sociologists and anthropologists tend to classify different societies according to the degree to which different groups within a society have unequal access to advantages such as resources, prestige or power, and usually refer to four basic types of societies. From least to most socially complex they are clans, tribes, chiefdoms and states.ClanThese are small-scale societies of hunters and gatherers, generally of fewer than 100 people, who move seasonally to exploit wild(undomesticated)food resources. Most surviving hunter-gatherer groups are of this kind, such as the Hadza of Tanzania or the San of southern Africa. Qan members are generally kinsfolk, related by descent or marriage. Clans lack formal leaders, so there are no marked economic differences or disparities in status among their members.Because clans are composed of mobile groups of hunter-gatherers, their sites consist mainly of seasonally occupied camps, and other smaller and more specialised sites. Among the latter are kill or butchery sites—locations where large mammals are killed and sometimes butchered—and work sites, where tools are made or other specific activities carried out. The base camp of such a group may give evidence of rather insubstantial dwellings or temporary shelters, along with the debris of residential occupation.TribeThese are generally larger than mobile hunter-gatherer groups, but rarely number more than a few thousand, and their diet or subsistence is based largely on cultivated plants and domesticated animals. Typically, they are settled farmers, but they may be nomadic with a very different, mobile economy based on the intensive exploitation of livestock. These are generally multi-community societies, with the individual communities integrated into the larger society through kinship ties. Although some tribes have officials and even a “capital”or seat of government, such officials lack the economic base necessary for effective use of power.The typical settlement pattern for tribes is one of settled agricultural homesteads or villages. Characteristically, no one settlement dominates any of the others in the region. Instead, the archaeologist finds evidence for isolated, permanently occupied houses or for permanent villages. Such villages may be made up of a collection of free-standing houses, like those of the first farms of the Danube valley in Europe. Or they may be clusters of buildings grouped together, for example, the pueblos of the American Southwest, and the early farming village or small town ofin modern Turkey.ChiefdomThese operate on the principle of ranking—differences in social status between people. Different lineages(a lineage is a group claiming descent from a common ancestor)are graded on a scale of prestige, and the senior lineage, and hence the society as a whole, is governed by a chief. Prestige and rank are determined by how closely related one is to the chief, and there is no truestratification into classes. The role of the chief is crucial.Often, there is local specialisation in craft products, and surpluses of these and of foodstuffs are periodically paid as obligation to the chief. He uses these to maintain his retainers, and may use them for redistribution to his subjects. The chiefdom generally has a center of power, often with temples, residences of the chief and his retainers, and craft specialists. Chiefdoms vary greatly in size, but the range is generally between about 5000 and 20,000 persons.Early StateThese preserve many of the features of chiefdoms, but the ruler(perhaps a king or sometimes a queen)has explicit authority to establish laws and also to enforce them by the use of a standing army. Society no longer depends totally upon kin relationships: it is now stratified into different classes. Agricultural workers and the poorer urban dwellers form the lowest classes, with the craft specialists above, and the priests and kinsfolk of the ruler higher still. The functions of the ruler are often separated from those of the priest: palace is distinguished from temple. The society is viewed as a territory owned by the ruling lineage and populated by tenants who have an obligation to pay taxes. The central capital houses a bureaucratic administration of officials; one of their principal purposes is to collect revenue(often in the form of taxes and tolls)and distribute it to government, army and craft specialists. Many early states developed complex redistribution systems to support these essential services.This rather simple social typology set out by Elman Service and elaborated by William Sanders and Joseph Marino, can be criticised, and it should not be used unthinkingly. Nevertheless, if we are seeking to talk about early societies, we must use words and hence concepts to do so. Service’s categories provide a good framework to help organise our thoughts.Questions 1-7Do the following statements agree with the information given in Reading Passage 1?In boxes 1-7 on your answer sheet, writeTRUE if the statement agrees with the informationFALSE if the statement contradicts the informationNOT GIVEN if there is no information on this1.There’s little economic difference between members of a clan.A.真B.假C.Not Given正确答案:A解析:利用细节信息“clan”和“economic difference”定位于原文Clan部分的第一个分段落的最后一句话“there are no marked economic differences or disparities in status amongtheir members”。

英语的基本句式结构其实很简单:主谓宾和主系表..主谓宾是“谁-做-什么”;例如:比如“羊吃草”;“洁白可爱的小绵羊蹦蹦跳跳欢快活泼地在一望无垠的广阔草原上幸福愉快地吃着鲜嫩碧绿的青草”一样也是主谓宾;只不过多了一些修饰的词;句子的核心意思还是“羊吃草”..主系表是“谁-是-什么”;同主谓宾一样..在阅读中我们要很快的找出核心句子;不用每句话的意思都懂;但要知道这句话要表达的核心意思;即找到主谓宾或主系表的主体..并列平行结构在一个较长的句子中;并列平行的部分可能是几个独立的句子;也可能是几个并列的短语成分或者从句..如果并列平行的部分是几个独立的句子;也叫“并列句“..所以说;“并列平行结构”是一个更广泛的概念..本篇主要讲解并列平行的部分是几个并列的短语成分或者从句的这种情况..中文:进一步展望未来;通过这个新时代所产生的巨大财富和新技术的结合.人类可望在太空建立一个浩大的可供千万人居住的世界..英文:Further ahead; by a combination of the great wealth this new age will bring and the technology it will provide; the construction of a vast; man-created world in space; home to thousands or millions of people; will be within our power.结构分析:Combination of中的of有两个宾语:一是the great wealth;受定语从句this new age will bring的修饰;另一个是the technology;受定语从句it will provide的修饰:主句中的home to thousands or millions of people为world的同位语..中文:但是随着人们重新关注杀虫剂对农产品的影响.以及红外线扫描技术的改进;Paley希望能重操旧业..英文:But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce; and refinements in infrared scanning; Paley hopes to get back into operation.结构分析:with带两个宾语:renewed concern…和refinements...;整个短语作状语..中文:那位中世纪的学者几乎没有尝试着去调查植物的解剖结构、生长机制;以及它们相互之间是如何联系在一起的..英文:The medieval scholar made almost no attempt to investigate the anatomy of plants; their mechanisms of growth; or the ways in which they are related to one another.结构分析:investigate后所带的宾语是三个平行并列成分.即:A; B; or C;具体来说这三个成分分别是:一the anatomy of plants.2their mechanisms of growth;3or the ways in which they are related to one other..因为该句的谓语带有否定含义词no;所以用or;而不是and来把第三个并列成分和前两个连起来..定语从句;并且会用例句来具体分析句子结构..看完本篇文章你绝对能搞定定语从句..中文:利益是需要.渴望.关注.恐俱.一个人关心或想要的东西..英文:Interests are needs;

the question of who is more powerful是主语.宾语从句who is less dependent on the other是turns on的宾语..中文:在发展中国家;在那里;至少有16个城市在近10年之末人口会超过1200万;不优先考虑公共交通是灾难性的..英文:In developing countries; where at least 16 cities are expected to have more than 12 million people each by the end of this decade;

like the timber barriers; the Fanwall barrier can be built without expensive concrete footings or piles; speeding the construction time up and reducing costs.结构分析:can be built是被动语态;like the timber barriers是介词短语做状语;speeding the construction time up and reducing costs 是分词短语做状语..中文:在希腊失去了独立后;古代奥运会在公元393年被罗马皇帝Theodosius废除了..英文:The ancient Olympics were abolished by the Roman Emperor Theodosius in 393AD; after Greece had lost its independence.结构分析:were abolished是被动语态的过去式形式..after引导一时间状语从句..罗马皇帝不认识;采用首字母提炼法T..中文:假如不那么做;你可能被送上法庭..到时如果你不能向法庭证明你有理由可以不系安全带.你将会被罚款..这一点你必须牢记在心..英文:Remember you may be taken to court for not doing so;

such as reciprocity; precedent; equality; and seniority.结构分析:although引导一个让步状语从句;注意本句的最后有一个such as;是例如的意思;后面的内容往往是举例说明;是属于不重要的内容;可不作为阅读的重点.socially accepted是standards of behavior的前置定语..中文:特别是当父亲们对孩子们的需要负更大责任时;他们又更高的婚姻满意程度..当父亲们参与更多时.他们更高兴..英文:There is also higher marital satisfaction for fathers;

only recently has literature focused on the role of a father.结构分析:第二个分句由于把only放在句首以强调recently;所以使用了倒装语序..主句的正常语序应为literature has only recently focused on the role of a father.2.以never; little; often; not only; not until; hardly; scarcely 等词引导的句子..中文:我们不仅需要使纸张能被收废纸的人得到.而且纸张需要被分成不同的类别..英文:Not only do we need to make the paper available to collectors but it also needs to be separated into different types.结构分析:not only位于句首;引起前面的句子倒装..正常的语序是we need to make the paper available to collectors;3.so/as或neither/nor引导的句子The average air temperature at the surface of the earth has risen this century;

新东方剑雅17-test 1作文答案利弊类大作文,社会类话题It is important for people to take risks, both in their professional lives and their personal lives. Do you think the advantages of taking risks outweigh the disadvantages?1、题目大意人们承担风险是很重要的,无论是在他们的职业生涯还是个人生活中。
你认为承担风险的好处多于坏处吗?2、思路解析这是一道利弊类大作文,讨论的是承担风险的利弊问题。
利弊类文章需要强调在论证上体现合理性,即在具体的分析中,明确能体现出一边的论述的确是大于另一边,或是利弊均等,而利弊是否有说服力并不取决于观点的数量,而是内容是否有说服力。
审题的时候要注意,题目提到了“professional lives”和“personal lives”,因此两者都需要提及。
很多同学可能觉得“承担风险”这个点比较抽象不好写,建议可以落到“物质”和“精神”两个层面进行讨论,下面月半鸭和大家一起来看下具体观点。
首先来看承担风险的坏处。
职业生涯角度来说,人们会面临财产损失的风险。
当人们拿出存款或者借款进行创业和投资时,判断失误、工作疏忽或是一些外部不利条件的发生都可能会使得人们赔掉本金甚至是陷入负债的境地,造成当事人经济上的损失。
个人生活角度来看,可能会面临健康的风险。
比如,喜欢极限运动或旅游探险的人,可能会遇到摔伤、骨折等等问题,这些都会给当事人造成极大的痛苦和不便。
此外,失败的风险还会加重个人负担,无论是对于失败的恐惧还是失败后的挫败感,都会给当事人造成精神上的负担,不利于其身心健康。
然后来看承担风险的好处。
虽然成功和收益往往都会伴随着风险,但是一旦获得成功往往能带来丰富的物质回报或精神回报。
比如投资成功能够赚取丰厚的利润,野外徒步旅行能够看到独特的风景,这些都是非常诱人的,而对于不愿承担风险的人来说很难收获到同样的回报。

文章内容与TPO12的一篇文章Transition to Sound in Film很对应,甚至举例都很相似,值得大家精读研究。
Transition to Sound in FilmThe shift from silent to sound film at the end of the 1920s marks, so far, the most important transformation in motion picture history. Despite all the highly visible technological developments in theatrical and home delivery of the moving image that have occurred over the decades since then, no single innovation has come close to being regarded as a similar kind of watershed. In nearly every language, however the words are phrased, the most basic division in cinema history lies between films that are mute and films that speak.Yet this most fundamental standard of historical periodization conceals a host of paradoxes. Nearly every movie theater, however modest, had a piano or organ to provide musical accompaniment to silent pictures. In many instances, spectators in the era before recorded sound experienced elaborate aural presentations alongside movies' visual images, from the Japanese benshi (narrators) crafting multivoiced dialogue narratives to original musical compositions performed by symphony-size orchestras in Europe and the United States. In Berlin, for the premiere performance outside the Soviet Union of The Battleship Potemkin, film director Sergei Eisenstein worked with Austrian composer Edmund Meisel (1874-1930) on a musical score matching sound to image; the Berlin screenings with live music helped to bring the film its wide international fame.Beyond that, the triumph of recorded sound has overshadowed the rich diversity of technological and aesthetic experiments with the visual image thatwere going forward simultaneously in the 1920s. New color processes, larger or differently shaped screen sizes, multiple-screen projections, even television, were among the developments invented or tried out during the period, sometimes with startling success. The high costs of converting to sound and the early limitations of sound technology were among the factors that suppressed innovations or retarded advancement in these other areas. The introduction of new screen formats was put off for a quarter century, and color, though utilized over the next two decades for special productions, also did not become a norm until the 1950s.Though it may be difficult to imagine from a later perspective, a strain of critical opinion in the 1920s predicted that sound film would be a technical novelty that would soon fade from sight, just as had many previous attempts, dating well back before the First World War, to link images with recorded sound. These critics were making a common assumption—that the technological inadequacies of earlier efforts (poor synchronization, weak sound amplification, fragile sound recordings) would invariably occur again. To be sure, their evaluation of the technical flaws in 1920s sound experiments was not so far off the mark, yet they neglected to take into account important new forces in the motion picture field that, in a sense, would not take no for an answer.These forces were the rapidly expanding electronics and telecommunications companies that were developing and linking telephone and wireless technologies in the 1920s. In the United States, they included such firms as American Telephone and Telegraph, General Electric, and Westinghouse. They were interested in all forms of sound technology and all potential avenues for commercial exploitation. Their competition and collaboration were creating the broadcasting industry in the United States, beginning with the introduction of commercial radio programming in the early 1920s. With financial assets considerably greater than those in the motion picture industry, and perhaps a wider vision of the relationships among entertainment and communications media, they revitalized research into recording sound for motion pictures.In 1929 the United States motion picture industry released more than 300 sound films—a rough figure, since a number were silent films with music tracks, or films prepared in dual versions, to take account of the many cinemas not yet wired for sound. At the production level, in the United States the conversion was virtually complete by 1930. In Europe it took a little longer, mainly because there were more small producers for whom the costs of sound were prohibitive, and inother parts of the world problems with rights or access to equipment delayed the shift to sound production for a few more years (though cinemas in major cities may have been wired in order to play foreign sound films). The triumph of sound cinema was swift, complete, and enormously popular.第二篇TOPIC:Eocene warming讨论Eocene warming 产生的原因解析:本文属地质学话题,谈到Eocene始新世这样一个历史时期,这是在TPO里从未考过的一个历史阶段。
