青霄有路终须到,金榜无名誓不还2018-2019年高考英语专题整合:A(2017·云南高三检测一)My doorbell rings at 11 a.m. On the step, I fin d an elderly Chinese lady. She is small and slight. She holds a paper carrier bag in her hands.I know this lady. It is by no means her first visit. Her daughter, Nicole, bought the house next door last October.Nicole, who is currently in Shanghai, has apparently told her mother that I am having heart surgery shortly, and the result is that her mother has decided I need to be supplied with meals.I know what is inside the paper carrier bag—a stainless steel container with a meal of rice, vegetables and either chicken, meat or shrimp. This has become an almost­daily occurrence.Communication between my benefactor(恩人) and me is somewhat handicapped by the fact that she doesn’t speak English and all I can say in Mandarin is “ hello”. Once, she brought an iPad and pointed to the screen, which displayed a message from Nicole telling me that her mother wanted to know if the food was all right.“Your mother just can’t be bringing me meals like this all the time,”I protested. “I can hardly reciprocate by cooking something from my native land, like roast beef or Yorkshire pudding for her, ”I said.“Oh, no,”Nicole sa id. “Don’t worry about that. She has to cook for the family anyway, and she wants to do it for you. You can call her Wing, which is her surname. ”The tenant in my basement suite is a university student who speaks Mandarin quite well, so with her help, I have found out that Wing is 68—13 years younger than I am. For my part, I was raised in wartime Britain.So here we are, two grandmothers a world away from where we were raised, neither of us able to speak the other’s language. But the doorbell keeps ringing and there is the familiar paper carrier bag, handed smilingly to me by Wing.Right now I am working on some more Ma ndarin words—it’s the least I can do after such a display of kindness.“Thank you”is, of course, the first one, which somehow seems inadequate.[解题导语]本文是一篇记叙文。

B(2017·云南高三检测二)Half of primary schools will adopt the traditional Chinese method of maths teaching in a Government drive to stop British youngsters from falling behind their__Asian__counterparts.Youngsters in the U.K. lag way behind those in China, Singapore and Japan in numeracy(计算能力). In the latest PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) tests for 15-year-olds, Shanghai came top in maths while the U.K. came 26th.The school will give up “child-centred” styles and instead return to repetition, drills and “chalk and talk” whole-class learning. Primary school children will be taught “Shanghai maths” as Brit ish schools copy Chinese teaching methods to improve standards. So far 140 teachers have been trained in the approach.Currently, classes are often divided into groups based on ability. Critics blame the British teaching styles that focused on applying maths to real-life situations in an effort to make the subject more interesting. They say this has led to confusion and stopped children learning the basics. Under the Government’s new plans, children as young as five will have drills to practise sums and exercises, and mustmaster each concept before moving to the next.Nick Gibb, the schools minister, said that training will be provided for 8,000 primary schools—half the country’s total—to switch to the Shanghai “mastery” approach.“We are seeing a renaissance(复兴) in maths teaching in this country, with good ideas from around the world helping to cheer up our classrooms,”he said.[解题导语]本文是一则新闻报道。
