Lesson 14十二选十【内容提要】一、中考12选10的解题技巧要抓住两点:一是"放远", 二是"看近"。
(一) 、放远: 一篇短文填空题是一个有机的整体。
通读全文、明了大意、理清观点、分清层次是十分重要的一步。
依据上下文, 语境, 眼光放远, 从头到尾, 按日常认识事物的规律, 填上所选的词, 通顺。
❖技巧:1.根据上下文的逻辑关系进行推测: 注意上下文的逻辑联系和文章的逻辑关系是做好短文填空题的关键, 它要求考生在了解文章大意的基础上, 联系上下文, 运用思维逻辑进行比较、判断, 找出既符合短文的词义。
2.根据语篇标志进行推测: 语篇一般是指比单一句子长的语言单位, 如句群、段落、篇章等。
语篇和语篇之间往往有标明其内在联系的词语, 这些词语称为"语篇标志", 例如: 表示结构层次的firstly, secondly等, 表示逻辑关系的therefore,so,but等, 表示话题改变by the way, for example, and so on, for instance等。
充分利用这些语篇标志可以迅速理清文章的脉络, 弄清上下文之间的关系。
3.根据文化背景知识进行推测:短文空题考查的知识面较广, 从文化、科学常识, 到历史地理知识;从风俗民情到民族习惯等等, 无所不考。
考生在做这类题时, 要特别注意中西文化方面所存在的差异。
具备了一定的文化背景知识, 才能比较准确地判断出正确的词义。
4. 根据常识进行判断:中学生已经掌握了较丰富的科学与生活常识, 也具备了一定的判断能力。
在考查语言知识和技能的同时, 考查这些简单的常识性的问题, 也是对学生知识面的检测。
(二)、看近: 形式上有残缺(若干个空) , 但它的内容、语言习惯, 句与句之间的衔接点, 句子与段落之间的联系, 段落与段落之间的逻辑顺序仍或隐或现地存在于篇章之中。
依据此句前后, 眼光就近。

本文作者提出了7点具体建议,或许对你有所启迪。
1Time is tricky. It is difficult to control and easy to waste. When you look ahead, you think you have more time than you need. For example, at the beginning of a semester, you may feel that you have plenty of time on your hands. But toward the end of the term you may suddenly find that time is running out. You don't have enough time to cover all your duties, so you get worried. What is the answer?Control!时间很难对付,既难控制又易浪费。
当你向前看时,觉得有用不完的时间。
比如说,学期伊始,你可能会觉得有大量的时间,可到期末时,突然发现时间就要用完了,已没有足够的时间去做应做的一切了,于是,你就很担心。
解决问题的方法是什么?那就是控制!2Time is dangerous. If you don't control it, it will control you. If you don't make it work for you, it will work against you. So you must become the master of time, not its servant. As a first-year college student, time management will be your number one problem.时间很危险。
Unit 14 Five Traits of the Educated ManA question often asked is: "What are the marks of an educated man" It is plain that one may gain no inconsiderable body of learning in some special field of knowledge without at the same time acquiring those habits and traits which are the marks of an educated gentleman. A reasonable amount of learning must of course accompany an education, but, after all, that amount need not be so very great in any one field. An education will make its mark and find its evidences in certain traits, characteristics, and capacities which have to be acquired by patient endeavor, by following good examples, and by receiving wise discipline and sound instructions.These traits or characteristics may be variously described and classified, but among them are five that should always stand out clearly enough to be seen by all men. The first of these is correctness and precision in the use of the mother tongue. The quite shocking slovenliness and vulgarity of much of the spoken English, as well as not a little of the written English, which one hears and sees, proves beyond peradventure that years of attendance upon schools and colleges that are thought to be respectable have produced no impression. When one hears English well spoken, with pure diction, correct pronunciation, and an almost unconscious choice of the right word, he recognizes it at once. How much easier he finds it to imitate English of the other sort!A second and indispensable trait of the educated man is refined and gentle manners, which are themselves the expression of fixed habits of thought and action. "Manners make the man," wrote Wykeham William over his gates at Winchester and at Oxford. He pointed to a great truth. When manners are superficial, artificial, and forced, no matter what their form, they are bad manners. When, however, they are the natural expression of fixed habits of thought and action, and when they reveal a refined and cultivated nature, they are good manners. There are certain things that gentlemen do not do, and they do not do them simply because they are bad manners. The gentleman instinctively knows the difference between those things which he may and should do and those things which he may not and should not do.A third trait of the educated man is the power and habit of reflection. Human beings for the most part live wholly on the surface of life. They do not look beneath the surface or far beyond the present moment and that part of the future which is quickly to follow it. They do not read those works of prose and poetry which have become classic because they reveal power and habit of reflection and induce that power and habit in others. When one reflects long enough to ask the question how He is on the way to knowing something about science. When he reflects long enough to ask the question why He may, if he persists, even become a philosopher.A fourth trait of the educated man is the power of growth. He continues to grow and develop from birth to his dying day. His interests expand, his contacts multiply, his knowledge increases, and his reflection becomes deeper and wider. It would appear to be true that not many human beings, and even not many of those who have had a college education, continue to grow after they are twenty-four or twenty-five years of age. By that time it is usual to settle down to life on a level of more or less contented intellectual interest and activity. The whole present day movement for adult education is a systematic and definite attempt to keep human beings growing long after they have left school and college, and, therefore, to help educate them.A fifth trait of the educated man is his possession of efficiency, or the power to do. The mere visionary dreamer, however charming or however wise, lacks something which an education requires. The power to do may be exercised in any one of a thousand ways, but when it clearly shows itself, that is evidence that the period of study, of discipline, and of companionship with parents and teachers has not been in vain. Given these five characteristics, one has the outline of an educated man. That outline may be filled in by scholarship, by literary power, by mechanical skills, by professional zeal and capacity, by business competence, or by social and political leadership. So long as the framework or outline is there, the content may be pretty much what you will, assuming, of course, that the fundamental elements of the great tradition which is civilization, and its outstanding records and achievements in human personality, in letters, in science, in the fine arts, and in human institutions, are all present.教养的五个特征常常有这么一个问题:“一个有教养的人的标志是什么”很显然,可能一个人在获取了某个专业知识领域大量的知识的同时,却未能养成作为一个有教养的人标志性的那些习惯和特征。
综合英语(一)下册lesson 14Lesson 14 The Outside Chance1.It’s a funny thing about money. If you haven’t got it, you think it’s the most important thing in the world. That’s what I used to think, too. I don’t any more, though, and I learned the hard way.2.when I was at school, we had this English master. He was always quoting to us from famous writers. I wasn’t very interested, and I don’t remember much about it now. But it’s funny how things come back to you. He used to say:3.“When the gods wish to punish us, they answer our prayers.4.Sounds a bit silly, doesn’t it? Well, I didn’t understand it then, either, but I can tell you what it means now. it means if you want something really badly, you’ll probably get it. But you’ll probably get it in a way you don’t expect.5.I mean, you might have to pay a price you didn’t bargain for.6.It started one rainy day, when I was coming home from work.7.I’m a motor mechanic, and I like working in the garage. But, I was restless. I’d always had this dream of owning my own business. Nothing big---just something I could build up. I don’t mind hard work, you see, if I’m working for myself. That’s why I’d left my mum and dad in the North, and come to London. I thought I’d make more money that way.8.We’d had arguments about it. My dad and I. He didn’t see why I should want to leave home when I had enough money to live on.9.Enough! Enough for what? I used to ask him. To live as he had in a council house all his life, with nothing to look forward to but a gold watch and a pension?10.Oh, I was fond of him, you see, and it annoyed me to see him so content. He had nothing to show for all those years of work in that noisy factory.11.Anyway, all this was on my mind, as I walked home that night. The rain didn’t help, either. I remember thinking, if only I could get a thousand pounds---just that, just a thousand.12.I stopped and bought a newspaper outside the Tube. I thought it would take my mind off things on the way home. I could read about other people’s troubles for a change. See what films were on.13.I don’t know when I first realized there was something wrong with the paper. It looked ordinary enough. But there was something about it that didn’t seem quite right. As if there was agap in the news. As if it was a jump ahead. So, in the end, I looked at the front page, and instead of Tuesday 22nd November, it said Wednesday 23rd November.14.“Mg God,”I thought, “it’s tomorrow’s paper!”15.I didn’t believe it to start with. But it did explain why all the news was different. There couldn’t be any other explanation. Somehow, I had bought tomorrow’s paper---today!16.And that was the moment I realized it. The moment I realized that all my prayers could be answered. My hands were shaking to much that I could hardly turn the pages. But they were there. The results of tomorrow’s races!17.I looked at the winners, and chose from them carefully. I picked only the outsides that had won at prices like 30-1.18.There was even one at 50-1 A horse I would never have thought of betting on.19.Next morning, I went to the bank, and drew out just about all I had---€150. I laid my bets during my lunch hour. I went to several shops. I didn’t want anyone to become suspicious.20.It’s a funny thing, but I just knew the horses would win. And ---God forgive me---I never stopped to think why I had been given this chance to see into the future.21.They did win---every one of them. All I had to do was to go round and collect my money, and I couldn’t wait to get home and count it €4,000!!!22.Well, nothing could stop me now! I’d give in my notice at work the next day, and look for a place of my own. Wait till I told Mum and Dad! They’d hardly be able to believe it.23.I switched on the television, but I couldn’t concentrate on it. I kept thinking what I’d do with the money. I hardly heard a word of the programme.24.Then the news came on.25.The announcer mentioned Selby. That was where my parents lived. I began to listen.26.There had been an explosion up there, that afternoon, followed by a fire in a factory. Twenty-two people had been killed, and many more were in hospital. I don’t remember the rest---something about a government enquiry.27.I stopped listening, but I couldn’t move out of the chair. I think I must’ve known then that my dad was dead---even before the telegram came.28.The newspaper had fallen on the floor. I picked it up, not realizing what I was doing. I sawit---in the “Stop Press.”FACTORY DISASTER IN SELBY. MANY FEARED DEAD. I hadn’t seen it before. I’d been too busy picking winners. I could’ve saved my dad’s life, but I’d been too busy picking bloody winners. I don’t often cry, but the words swam in front of me then.29.There isn’t much more to tell. I got my own business, and I’m doing well. As for my Mum, she was paid insurance by the firm that owned the factory, so she’s better off than she ever was. The only thing is, she doesn’t care if she’s alive or dead now my Dad’s gone.30.When the gods wish to punish us, they make a damn good job of it.Word Listoutside adj. 极小的(可能性、机会等)quote v. 引证,引述rainy adj.下雨的,多雨的mechanic n. 技工,机修工garage n. 汽车修理厂(或兼加油站);车房,车库restless adj. 不安分的,坐立不安的mum n.(口语)妈妈council house n.(英国市、郡等统建的便宜的)公寓或房屋pension n.养老金;退休金;抚恤金tube n.(英)地铁gap n.
