1【杭州市2017届高三第二学期教学质量检测英语】As is known to all, sports stars earn large amounts of money every year. LeBron James, the famous American basketball star, for instance, earns an income of more than 20 million dollars a year. Some people hold the view that these stars do not deserve the high pay that they are getting. Some even argue that sports stars do nothing to society apart from entertaining people. Their contribution to society are much less than those made by doctors, firemen, scientists, professors, etc. But I can never agree with that.While sports are for entertainment, it does not mean that they are not important to people’s life. Why do so many people go to see football matches and NBA games?It is because they enjoy the games, and they are willing to pay to watch the performances. Because of the sports stars, our life becomes more exciting. Some sports stars gain honor for their country, and their countrymen are proud of them. They contribute to the spiritual well-being of their people.What’s more, sports stars usually are at the top of level in their fields. In this world, you have to pay if you want the best. It is the same with sports. Skills in sports are like the skills in works of art. People will not say that Da Vinci’s painting Mona Lisa was bought for too much money. Most stars are skilled in their own field not only because of their talents but also because of their hard training. They have to keep performing at their peak to earn that good income.Their influence on the national economy can not be overlooked. Take NBA in America for example, the stars help to support not only the basketball industry, but also other rs related industries like sportswear and sport equipment. Sports stars also make constant appearance in advertisements. Since they are well known in the world, they attract many people’s attention, which often leads to an immediate boom in the sales of the products that are advertised by them.I hope one day their accomplishments will be fully recognized._______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________2【浙江省名校新高考研究联盟2017届第三次联考】A few months ago nobody knew for sure what would happen inside Windsor Place, a nursing home, when it became home to a class of kindergartners. Never before had a Kansas school or nursing home tried this — mixing the old and young in a way for each to learn from the other.Sure, organizers hoped some good things would happen. But as they watched the class of 21 students in their white, paper graduation caps, they said they didn’t expect this. They couldn’t have known ahead of time the transformations, in the young and old, they would see through seasons.The kids have learned sympathy, kindness and how to be patient as they wait behind someone in a wheelchair or using a walker. At home they talk about how the very young and old are alike and how Grandma or Grandpa lived when they were young. They’ve also become strong readers, progressing from the everyday praise and guidance of the seniors.“If you look at our children, they’re just different,”said Dawn Crow, whose daughter Lily went to see the seniors during Christmas break because she thought they’d be lonely. “I think my child has learned so much more than 123s and ABCs. Every day we send our kids there, we feel like we’ve been given a gift.”Those who live at Windsor Place say they are the ones who have been given the gift. Marian Nelson has no grandchildren of her own. “These kids have filled a void(空虚感) in me,”the 87-year-old said.Stories like these have led other places to look at the program and consider carrying it out themselves. Michelle Foreman, a board member of a senior center in Alaska, said when she visited Windsor Place she cried nearly half the time she was there.“One of the things we have not done right in our society is that we have not sent the right message to our senior population,” Foreman said. “We need them to pass on valuable things to our next generation.”3【杭州二中2016学年第二学期高三年级仿真考】If you take a look at the best-selling books in the UK these days, it is almost certain that there will be a lot of autobiographies (自传) in that list. Bill Clinton, Nelson Mandela and actor Michael J Fox have all written them. An autobiography is the story of a person’s life, written by that person. It is usually a very famous person who might tell us all about their childhood, how they became famous and any other interesting things that have happened in their lives.Traditionally, someone would write an autobiography when they were older because they had had a long, successful life. However, these days there are many magazines with stories and photos of the stars which sell very well. Reality TV shows are extremely popular and lots of people become famous very easily just from being on the TV rather than being able to sing or act well. As a result, people become famous very quickly and as soon as they are famous, a lot of money can be made from writing an autobiography, even if they are very young.So now you can find an autobiography from almost everyone who is in the public eye. Even though we can follow the lives of the stars very closely on TV or in magazines nowadays, we maybe don’t know how they live their lives from day to day. Autobiographies often give the information we never knew about the stars. The British public are very curious to find out more so they are very eager to read autobiographies.Not every star wants to write though. Sometimes stars employ writers to write their life stories for them. The writer will interview the stars, listen to everything they want to say, record interviews and then write books based on their words. David Beckham did this with his book My Side.Not everyone likes to read books regularly but they might like to read about the lives of stars. Autobiographies are helping to get more British people reading books. About 100 million autobiographies are sold in Britain every year. More stars depend on them for extra income and as more of these books appear in the shops, more people are sure to keep buying them._______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________4.【嘉兴一中2017届高考适应性考试】Many Chinese students have studied English for approximately ten years, but most of them cannot even speak English correctly or fluently. In my opinion, there are several obstacles that have caused this to happen. The main obstacle is fear! Another is the habit of mentally translating from Chinese to English and then to change these thoughts into spoken words and sentences. Many of these difficulties are caused by the way Chinese people study and learn the language.We must learn to speak as a child does. When we are learning a second language we need to remember how we learned our native language. Learning to understand and speak a language is one of the first skills a child develops. How does a child learn the language? He listens for a time and then he tries to repeat the words. Parents give great praise for the smallest effort and slightest improvement. Therefore, the child develops courage and is excited about learning. Ittakes a long time before he knows anything about grammar, spelling or formal sentence structures.As for language teachers, they should avoid criticism and be very encouraging and generous with praise. Criticism or pointing out faults too often causes students to lose self-confidence and develop a fear of speaking. The best way to motivate a student is using praise.The most important aspect of speaking is having good self-esteem. Self-esteem is how you feel about yourself. When most Chinese people are asked how their English is, or they are told their English is very good, they immediately respond by saying, “Oh my English is very poor.” If you say this to yourself often enough, you will believe it. When someone compliments(称赞)you, just say “thank you”._____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 5.【宁波市镇海中学2017届高考模拟考试】Many Chinese students have studied English for approximately ten years,but most of them cannot even speak English correctly or fluently.In my opinion,there are several obstacles that have caused this to happen.The main obstacle is fear!Another is the habit of mentally translating from Chinese to English and then to change these thoughts into spoken words and sentences.Many of these difficulties are caused by the way Chinese people study and learn the language.We must learn to speak as a child does.When we are learning a second language we need to remember how we learned our native language.Learning to understand and speak a language is one of the first skills a child develops.

Dr. Mandan Damaris's laughter club quickly grew into 1,800 groups throughout India and over 6,000 around the world.The laughter club had even inspired World Laughter Day, which people celebrate on the first Sunday of May every year.Instructors at the clubs get people laughing not only through jokes but through simple laughing exercises,For example,instructors and participants repeat the chant "ho-ho-ho" and "ha-ha-ha" together.What's more,participants also do the "Lion laugh" by sticking out their tongues and waving their hands around their ears.Other exercises focus on breathing and simple yoga exercises.In a word,all the activities that can cause laugh are included in the clubs.These laughter clubs are very popular in hospitals and nursing homes nowadays in India,where participants can forget about their aches and pains while laughing.It seems that laughing may be just as important as eating right and exercising.Not everyone can join a laughter club,but we all can take part in the same practice.According to the doctor, besides taking part in the clubs,everyone can do something to make themselves laugh.How can you make laughing a part of your daily routine? If you feel funny about joining a laughter club,you can rent a funny movie,remember a funny experience,do some sports,go to the zoo,watch the monkeys or even,just make yourself laugh.You will not be able to keep a straight face all the time.So,don't worry;be ugh a little and live longer._______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________7【2017学年浙江省高三“五校联考”第一次考试】A new, first-of-its-kind study examines the connection between teacher burnout and students’ stress levels. Researchers from the University of British Columbia collected saliva (唾液) samples from over 400 elementary school children, grades four to seven, at 17 public schools. Cortisol (皮质醇) levels were then assessed from the samples as the hormone is commonly used as a biological indicator of stress. Correspondingly, teacher burnout was determined through survey results.Investigators found that in classrooms in which teachers experienced more burnout, or feelings of emotional exhaustion, students’ cortisol levels were elevated (提升). Higher cortisol levels in elementary school children have been linked to learning difficulties as well as mental health problems. The study appears in the journal Social Science & Medicine. “This suggests that stress contagion (蔓延) might be taking place in the classroom among students and their teachers,” said Eva Oberle, Ph.D., the study’ s lead author.Indeed, the relationship between student stress and teacher burnout is a chicken and egg question. “It is unknown what came first, elevated cortisol or teacher burnout. We consider the connection between student and teacher stress a cyclical problem in the classroom.” Oberle said a stressful classroom climate could be a result of inadequate support for teachers, which may impact teachers’ ability to effectively manage their students. A poorly managed classroom can contribute to students’needs not being met and increasing stress. This could be reflected in elevated cortisol levels in students.Alternatively, stress could originate from students, who may be more challenging to teach because of increases in anxiety, behavioral problems, or special needs. In this case, teachers could feel overwhelmed and report higher levels of burnout.“Our study is a reminder of the systemic issues facing teachers and educators as classroom sizes increase and supports for teachers are cut,”said Oberle. “It is clear from a number of recent research studies that teaching is one of the most stressful professions, and that teachers need adequate resources and support in their jobs in order to battle burnout and relieve stress in the classroom,”said University of British Columbia education professor Kimberly Schonert Reichl, Ph.D., the study’s co-author. “If we do not support teachers, we risk the damage of students.”_______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________8【2018年温州市普通高中高考适应性测试(二模)】Look inside any family home in the evening, and you might see a typical enough scene: Mom and Dad, each on their own laptop or tablet, streaming movies, catching up on work or maybe answering emails on their smartphones. Meanwhile, one child is chatting online with one school friend while texting another. The other is playing a video game with a friend on the other side of the city at the same time. Each member of the family is totally absorbed in his or her own piece of technology.According to some experts, the effect of technology on human relationships is worrying as technology becomes a substitute for face-to-face human relationships. It appears to be the case that many people wouldmuch rather spend time with their electronic gadgets (电子产品) than with one another. Young people sayit is difficult to get their parents’attention and they have to compete with smartphones, tablets and other technology.However, a report from the Pew Internet and American Life Project offers a more helpful and encouraging view, suggesting that far from replacing human contact, technology can actually better family relationships. Just over half of the 2,253 people surveyed agreed that technology had enabled them to increase their contact with distant family members and 47 percent said it had improved the communication with the people they lived with. Moreover, even the closest members of families need time away from each other at some point to seek their own interests. Family members who might otherwise have sat in separate rooms can now be in the same one while still occupying a different mental space.Look back at our typical family scene above. Is it any different from four people reading their own books? Or is it driving families apart? Where technology will lead us remains to be seen. Yet there is no need to worry. As a matter of fact how it affects our family relationships depends on our attitude toward technology.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________9.【浙江省嘉兴市2018届高三4月模拟英语试题】Why do people like what they like? Scientists have taken on the task of solving this mystery(奥秘)for ages. In the 1960s, psychologist Robert Zajonc conducted a series of experiments where he showed people nonsense words and random shapes. Afterward he asked his subjects which they preferred out of ever thing they had been shown. In studyafter study, people always chose the words and shapes they had seen the most. Their preference was for familiarity.This discovery was one of the most important findings in modern psychology. But the preference for familiarity has clear limits. People get tired of even their favorite songs and movies. On one hand, humans seek familiarity, because it makes then feel safe. On the other hand, people love the thrill of something new. This change between familiarity and discovery affects ns all the time- not just our preferences for pictures and songs, but also our preferences for ideas and even people.For that reason, the power of familiarity seems to be strongest when a person isn’t expecting it. The opposite is also true: A surprise seems to work best when it contains some familiarity. Nobody knows this better than Raymond Loews, who is considered to be the "father of industrial design. He had a theory that he said could help artists sell anything to anyone. He called it MAYA --"Most Advanced Yet Acceptable""To sell something surprising, make it familiar; and to sell something familiar, make it surprising," he said.One of Loewy’s final tasks was too add an element(要素)of familiarity to a truly new invention: NASA’s first space station. Loewy’s biggest contribution to the space station was thathe insisted NASA install a window with a view of Earth. Today, tens of millions of people have seen this small detail in films about astronauts. It is hard to imagine a more perfect example of MAYA: a window to a new world can also show you home._______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________10.【浙江省金丽衢12校2018届高三9月联考】According to most people, after a long period of studying or working, we need to have a rest to refresh ourselves. However, that may not be the case. According to a recent report, you don’t need the break as much as you may think that makes you feel less tired.Scientists have long assumed that willpower is a limited resource, which is why you feel the need to have a rest, have a snack and then get back to task when you are feeling better. They argue that the only way it restores willpower is by rest, food or entertainment.But psychologists have challenged this theory, saying weak willpower is all in your head. They have found that people’s belief in willpower determines how long and how well they’ll be able to work on tough mental exercise. “If you think of willpower are something that is not really used up, you can go on and on.” said Professor Veronika Job.The researchers designed four experiments to test students’belief in willpower. After a tiring task, those who believed, or were led to believe that willpower is a limited resource, performed worse on standard concentration tests than those who thought of willpower as something they had more control over. They also found that leading up to the final exam week, students who believed the limited resource theory ate junk food 24 percent more often than those who believed they had more control in resisting the temptation.Mr. Job said, “The theory that willpower is a limited resource is interesting. Belief in willpower as a non-limited resource makes people stronger in their ability to work through challenges.”The findings can help people who are battling against temptation. Willpower isn’t driven by a biologically-based process as much as we used to think. The belief in it is what influences your behaviors._______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________11.【2017学年第一学期浙江省名校协作体】While contact between adolescents (between the ages of fifteen and nineteen) and their peers (同龄人) is a universal characteristic of all cultures, the nature and the degree of such contact vary a great deal. In American contemporary society, adolescents spend much more time with their peers than with younger children or adults.This pattern of age segregation (隔离) in American society did not become usual until the beginning of the industrialized society. Changes in the workplace separated children from adults, with adults working and children attending school. The dramatic increase of mothers in the workplace has further contributed to the reduction in the amount of time adolescents spend with adults.School reform efforts during the nineteenth century, which resulted in age-segregated schools and grades, have reduced the amount of time adolescents spend with younger children.Finally, the changes in population are considered a factor that may have contributed to the emergence of adolescent peer culture. From 1955 to 1975, the adolescent population increased dramatically, from 11 percent to 20.9 percent. This increase in the number of adolescents might be a contributing factor to the increase in adolescent peer culture in terms of growth in size as well as in terms of its impact on society's other cultures (adults, younger children).Research supports the view that adolescents spend a great deal of time with their peers. Reed Larson and his colleagues examined adolescents’ daily activities and found that they spend more time talking to their friends than engaging in any other activity. In a typical week, high school students will spend twice as much time with their peers as with adults. This gradual withdrawal from adults begins in early adolescence. In sixth grade, adults (excluding parents) account for only 25 percent of adolescent social networks. Another important characteristic of adolescent peer culture is its increasingly autonomous (自治的) function. While childhood peer groups are conducted under the close supervision of parents, adolescent peer groups typically make an effort to escape adult supervision and usually succeed in doing so._______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________。

Peter loved to shop used articles.Almost a month ago,he bought a popular word game that used little pieces of wood with different letters on them.As he was purchasing it,the salesgirl said,“Oh,look,the game box hasn't even been opened yet.That might be worth some money.”Peter examined the box and,sure enough,it was completely covered in factory sealed plastic.And he saw a date of 1973 on the back of the box.“You should put that up for auction(拍卖) on the Internet,and see what happens,”the salesgirl said.“Yes,you're right.People like something rare,”Peter agreed.“I can't imagine there being very many unopened boxes of this game still around 40 years later.”“Don't forget to tell me if you sell it,”the salesgirl smiled.“No problem,”Peter said.After he got home,Peter went online to several auction websites looking for his game.But he couldn't find it.Then he typed in the name of the word game and hit search.The search result was 543 websites containing information about the changes of the game.Over the years,the game had been produced using letters in different sizes and game boards in different colors.He also found some lists of game fans looking for various versions of the game.Peter emailed some of them,telling them what he had.Two weeks later,Peter went back to the shop.“Hello.Do you still remember the unopened word game?”The salesgirl looked at him for a second,then recognized him and said,“Oh,hi!”“I've got something for you,”Peter said.“I sold the game and made $1,000.Thank you for your suggestion.”He handed her three $100 bills.“Wow!”the salesgirl cried out.“Thank you.I never expected it.”【写作指导】通读所给文章可知,本文属于记叙文。

A New Wave of MigrationAs the sea extends steadily inland in countries such as Bangladesh and as decreasing rains put already marginal farmland out of play in Ethiopia and other places, a wave of migration caused by the changing climate is taking shape on the horizon.But most “climate migrants” will not be heading abroad to start new lives; instead they will settle elsewhere in their home countries.A report released this week declares that if nothing is done to control global warming and factor migration into development planning, by mid-century this internal population shift could involve more than 140 million people in three regions examined: sub-Saharan Africa, south Asia and Latin America.“Climate change is already a driver of internal migration, and it will become more so in the future,” says John Roome, senior director of Climate change at The World Bank Group.The potential for such an increase in area consisting of 55 percent of the developing worldʼs population raises questions of environmental justice because those who have contributed the least to global warming are forced to shoulder more of the burden.It is necessary for developed countries like the U.S.to step up, says Maria Cristina Garcia, a professor of American Studies at Cornell University.Developed countries can help by both working to limit greenhouse gas emissions and funding efforts to help developing nations plan for climate migration challenges.The study of climate migration is still relatively new, and projections of just how many people might be driven from their homes as the world warms are hard to pin down.Some people will need to migrate despite any measures that might be taken—but “this doesnʼt have to be a crisis” Roome says.Properly managed migration could even bring more economic opportunities to some poor communities.But planning needs to start now.【范文】As the sea extends steadily inland, a wave of migration caused by the changing climate appears.Most “climate migrants” will settle elsewhere in their home countries.Itʼs unfair for the countries who have contributed the least to global warming to shoulder more of the burden.Though the climate migration is still relatively new, planning needs to start now.。

Online schools are becoming very popular today. Whether it is working professionals who cannot afford the time to go to a full-time college because of their huge workload or stay-at-home mums who have many duties and cannot join in a college, online schools are much enjoyed at all. And now, even regular students, who have the time to go to college, are going in for online education, as it leaves them with enough time to pursue other things, such as a part-time job or a hobby, along with studying. However, as with everything, there are both advantages and disadvantages of online schooling.Let’s start with the positives. These schools cost much less. You don’t have to spend money on buying books or bus fees. Another advantage is the flexibility it provides. You can study at any time during the day. You can study wherever you want---in your house, at a cafe or even in a park.Move on to the disadvantages of online schooling. Those students who always need a push from their teachers to do well, are very likely not to do well in online schools. And the greatest disadvantage going to school online is that there are many employers who prefer students with a traditional degree to those who have an online degree. The employers feel that students who go to full-time colleges are more knowledgeable compared to those who have online degrees. Since the very purpose of education is to land a person a good job, online degrees, many a time, do not serve this purpose.No doubt that online schools offer the freedom which no regular college can provide. However how much the employers will value the degrees and whether a student can actually make his own study schedule and most importantly, stick to it, depend upon individuals( AA). So in the end, it can be rightly said, online schools are good for some, while others should give them a skip.___________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ ____2.阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

Leah repeated the list.But a minute later,she inserted new toys she’d just spotted at the mall.“I’ve got an idea,〞 said Leanne,digging into her purse as the line inched forward.“Let’s write down your requests so you won’t forget them.〞I couldn’t help but laugh.Going to see Santa was such an important appointment for a six-year-old.No child should have any worries bigger than that.But the night before,on the news,I’d see n a village in the Middle East that had come under fire.Many of the wounded were children just like our Leah.Looking around the mall full of magical decorations and happy shoppers I felt safe,as safe as anyone could be.Everyone in the world should have that kind of security,especially at Christmas.“Okay,〞Leanne said.“Now you’ve got everything you want written down here.If you get nervous you can just give the note to Santa.〞Leah nodded and took the list. She read out loud,“A Chia Pet,Moon Sand andAquadoodle.〞“Why don’t you add a fourth request,Leah,〞I heard myself say.“Ask for peaceonearth.〞 My daughter looked a little surprised by my suggestion.“What’s peace on earth,Grandma?〞 Leah asked.“Peace on earth means all the people in the world would get along.That’s the true meaning of Christmas.〞Leah nodded seriously.“Yes,〞 she agreed.注意:1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右;2.应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语;3.续写局部分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好;4.续写完成后,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。
专题三 概要写作 Writing 1 阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。 Yesterday Matt was sick.I picked up Archie from the sitter and Eloise from school and decided to run to Target for a few things.I had hoped to be in and out quickly. I found a line with just one person ahead of me and began organizing my items on the conveyor.After placing my items,I looked up to see that the person ahead of me was an elderly woman. She was paying for her items with change and wanted to purchase each separately.I was frustrated with this woman and the inconvenience she had placed on me. But then I watched the young employee with this woman.I watched him help her count her change,ever so softly taking it from her shaking hands. When she asked if she had enough to buy a reusable bag,he told her she did and went two lines over to get one for her and then repackaged her items.Never once was this employee angry.He was nothing but patient and kind. As I was watching him,I saw that Eloise was too.She was standing next to the woman,watching the employee count the change.I realized I hadn’t been inconvenienced at all.That my daughter was instead witnessing kindness and patience and being taught this valuable lesson by a complete stranger. When the woman was finished,the employee began ringing up my items and thanked me for my patience.I then thanked him for teaching us patience and kindness by his treatment of that elderly woman.When he was finished I pushed my cart through the store trying to find the manager.I wanted her to know of the employee’s kindness and patience and how much it meant to me.After tracking her down and sharing the story with her,we left Target with a cart full of consumable items,but what is more,a heart full of gratitude for such an invaluable lesson. If you are ever in the Glendale Target,give Ishmael a smile and a nod.The world could use more people like him. ________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________ 【写作指导】 要写好记叙文的概要,先要找到以下两个问题的答案:(1)谁做了什么?(2)结果如何?如果是夹叙夹议文,还要加上这个故事给人们的启示或教育意义。就该题而言,本文的概要应该包含:作者购物的时间、地点、结果以及从本次购物中得到的启示,最后用自己的语言串联起来。 【参考范文】 The passage tells us an experience of shopping.(要点1)One day,the author with two children went to Target for shopping.(要点2)While waiting in line,she found an old lady was troublesome,but the young employee treated her patiently.(要点3)Seeing that,the author was touched by his kindness and patience and she thought her children would learn a lot from this experience.(要点4) Writing 2 阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。 Sugars are popular in the processed food industry because they add taste,colour and thickness to food products. The studies have shown that sugars can provide a source of energy.The body breaks down the sugar into simple forms that can be readily used in the body.But too much sugar can contribute to health problems like obesity and tooth disease. Having too much sugar is not the only reason for obesity or being overweight,but it does add to the amount of kilojoules in food.Eating too much of any food,without doing enough exercise,will cause you to become overweight. Governments in the United States and United Kingdom are waging a war on sugar in the interests of public health.Both countries claim that the overconsumption of sugar by much of the population is harmful to people’s health.On Thursday,the U.S.government issued new dietary guidelines that strongly recommend people receive less than 10 per cent of their daily calorie intake from added sugar.On the same day,British Prime Minister David Cameron said he has not ruled out the idea of a tax on sugar to encourage consumers to buy food with reduced levels of the sweet.Politicians in the U.K.are debating how a reduction in the intake of sugar could help reduce Britain’s rising rates of obesity. The American and British governments both refer to a study conducted in Mexico that showed a tax on sugary,carbonated drinks led to a reduction in consumption.The tax was carried out on January 1,2014 and purchases of the taxed drinks went down by 12 per cent by December of that year.Sales of mineral water increased by 4 per cent over the same period.An alternative to taxing sugared drinks is to reduce the level of sugar in them.Researchers at Queen Mary University in London say that reducing the sugar content in sugar-sweetened drinks by 40 percent over five years could prevent one million cases of obesity in the U.K.Researchers say people might not even notice the changes. ________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________ 【写作指导】 本文是一篇说明文,讲述了人体摄入过多糖分会影响健康。英国和美国政府都号召人们不要摄入过多糖分,甚至考虑通过增收糖税来减少糖的食用。读懂原材料是写好概要的关键,在理解原文的基础上,用尽可能简洁的语言集中概括原文的主要观点及思想,但不能简单重复原文,同时,对各要点的概括要详略得当,结构严谨,表达明确,语义准确简练,避免空泛、含混之词。 【参考范文】 Sugar is useful for our body,but too much sugar does harm to our health,which probably leads to health problems.(要点1)As for this,governments in the United States and United Kingdom call on people not to take in too much sugar.(要点2)British Prime Minister even planned to put a tax on
