Or is it just that you need to be different? Their rich at, their giant size made tortoises perfect for the ship’s larder. In 200 years, over 200,000 were taken.

Each got its own name. （103 words）

The hardest part of the Silk Road journey w as crossing the vast expanse of desert, called “The Sea of Death”. The Mogao Cave is an intersection between the edge of the Silk Road and starting point of the “Desert of Death”. The numerous stories of the Silk Road tale were hidden in the desert. The desert sand wind has two different sides, and the desert does not leave any traces. However, uncovering the Silk Road’s stories is similar to counting the grains of sand in the desert.

We live on an active planet. The rock itself is alive. The history of this planet is written in its rocks. Over hundreds of millions of years, mountain ranges have risen up, entire continents have drifted apart. Is this how other worlds would be? Earth’s partner, the moon, could hardly be more different. Nothing has happened on this dusty world for billions of years. Its surface shows only the scars of countless impacts by asteroids. The story of the other planets must also be locked on their surfaces. But they are so far away that they are just dots of light in the sky. (104 words)

Under the effect of global warming, the ice cap has lost 40% of its thickness in 40 years. Its surface area in the summer shrinks year by year. It could disappear before 2030. Some predictions suggest 2015. Soon these waters will be free of ice several summer months a year. The sunbeams that the ice sheet previously reflected back now penetrate the dark water, heating it up. The

warming process gathers pace. This ice contains the records of our planet. The concentration of carbon dioxide hasn’t been so high for several hundred thousand years. Humanit y has never lived in an atmosphere like this.(103 words)

The absence or presence of water governs life on land. It determines where and how animals live. But falling rain is not always welcome. The power of water is immense. Once on land, it begins its journey back to the sea, carving its way through the earth. 65% of the human body is water. It is our absolute necessity. We cannot live without it. We need it for drinking, for bathing and to grow food. And we have gone to great lengths to get it to where we want it to be. Water, the giver of life, essential to all and forever sacred.(103 words)

Much of my work here is to show people the diversity of the wildlife and to explain its biology. It's important to get to know sharks. With gray sharks there is tension. They'll eat almost anything. You know, humans are much more dangerous to sharks than they are to us. When you spend time with sharks, you begin to understand them and learn to respect them. But you have to command their respect too. They're a vital link in the chain of life. Like wolves they weed out the sick and the injured. (93 words)

2018 D Part A The wind has had some of its most dramatic effects on human history when it interacts with the energy of the oceans. It’s an interaction that can have major long term consequences. But it can also bring short term disaster. The sea acts as a main store of the sun’s heat. There’s more energy in the top 3 meters of the ocean than the whole of the atmosphere. By pumping this energy into the air, the ocean is constantly influencing the wind. A principle that is demonstrated each year: the hotter the ocean, the faster the air above rises. Part B 视频对话 W: Hi, Tom. How was your summer vacation? M: Good, I went to Beijing in August. W: Oh, how did you like it? M: Well, I’ve been there several times. This time I had a three-day tour and I noticed something different. I like it better now. W: Really? What is the difference? M: I’ve seen a lot of fantastic office buildings and some of them are of eco-design. 1. 那是什么意思？ What does that mean? 电脑回答It means that the designs combines environmentally friendly ideas. I visited one building with eco-designs. They helped cut energy cost greatly. Last year, that building saved up to 20% energy cost, compared to other ordinary buildings. Thanks to the various wonderful design. 2. 让你印象最深刻的设计是什么？ What design impressed you most? 电脑回答Well, I think what impresses me most is the high-tech curtain wall. For one thing, it is used to adjust temperature automatically in the building. The indoor temperature will not be affected by conditions outside. For another, it enables 90% of the office area to enjoy natural sunlight, which makes people feel like closer to nature. 3. 这栋大楼里还有其他新设计吗？ Are there any other new designs in this building? 电脑回答Yes, of course. For example, there is only one elevator in the building. Many staff have to walk to their offices. At first some of them complained, but gradually they realized walking is pretty good exercise to keep them fit. Another example is that the parking spaces are reserved mostly for small cars, so the use of small cars is encouraged. 1. When did Tom visit Beijing?

广东高考英语听说考试满分经验

广东高考英语听说考试满分经验集团档案编码：[YTTR-YTPT28-YTNTL98-UYTYNN08]

广东高考英语听说考试满分经验我是今年（2017年）6月毕业的广东考生，很幸运的是，我听说考试拿了满分。其实这个不确定因素很大，最最重要是考试时候的状态。 1、我先跟你说说考试那会的事吧。一般来说一个班里总会有那么些人被分在了同一个考试的语音室，进去以后尽量跟听力好的人在一起，那里的隔音效果都不会好，所以你很容易听到别人的答案（当然最好是你自己确定答案，那时我们有一个考试语音室的人跟着大家喊同一个答案，结果都错了）。 2、考试分3部分，第一部分是电脑给一段视频（英文配音英文字幕，一般是介绍某个动物或者地方的视频），电脑第一次放视频的时候，你不要急着跟读，留意出现的陌生单词的读音，快速笔记，之后它给出原文文字并停1分钟左右给你练习，快速读一遍，记下不会读的单词，等下一次播音，记住，前面几句一定一定要读的非常非常熟，据一些老师的说法，很多评分员只听前几句，因为他们要听很多份也会疲倦。第三次放音的时候跟读。然后就是你自己跟着视频字幕读了，一定记住，读的时候不要结巴，一定要大声而且装作很有底气的样子，我听过自己的录音，声音有没有底气效果出来真的差很多，就算你突然忘了某个单词怎么读也要流利的随便读一个过去，老师有时是听不出你读错没有，但他肯定能听出你是否流利。所以一定要集中精神。 3、第二部分是念一段话然后让你对着中文字幕翻译几个问题，在回答他英文问的无字幕的问题，开始的一段话是读一遍，所以一定要听清而且一定要做笔记，非常快那种缩写笔记。我那时候因为第二部分好几题没听清，所以跟着旁边的女生喊的答案，其实我也不知道我喊的是什么，不过当你真的不知答案的时候，认真听旁边的答案，跟着念，一定要念的像，就算你不知道他喊得是啥，只要在时间范围内迟一点答题也没关系的。很奇怪的是，我跟着旁边的女生念，她14分，我15分满分了。所以我想应该是老师听着你的读音跟正确答案比较像就给分了，而且我念的很有气-装作很肯定答案的样子。 4、第三部分是电脑念一篇短文（一般是故事）念两遍，然后给时间你整理练习，之后自己复述故事内容。听的时候一定要做笔记，越详细越好。这一部分的评分标准是一共有那么十几个要点，答对一个就给相应的分数，所以念的很罗嗦也没关系，尽可能把你听到的信息说出来。而且，还是那句话，念的要有底气！一定要流利！ 5、说说平时吧，找几十份听力练习题，就是考试形式的那种，可以买一本专门的广东听说训练的练习册，配光碟的，英语双语报也有相关联系。然后就是不断地练习了，练的时候找好节奏，就是听的过程中怎样记笔记的问题，你最好找到一种英文单词缩写的办法（自己能看明白的）因为考试那时候真的没时间记完所有信息，要学会简写重点的词，联系时一个是练你的听力，一个试炼你的记笔记的能力技巧。 6、如果你的听力真的很差那种，那么你要恶补一下了，去网上下一些听力（可以是疯狂英语的听力，一篇篇短文的那种，跟考试录音比较像）每天睡前起床必须要听，最好吃饭也听，而且要尽力听懂，这比较难，不过这样你坚持一个星期效果肯定出来了。我听力一般般，这样在睡前听几篇，一个星期后能听比较快的英文了。 7、对了，补充一点小细节，考试的时候每一段录音放完后会滴一声然后进入答题时间，你会看到一个倒计时间的条，记住，别太赶着答题，有时候滴一声后1-3秒内电脑还没进入录音状态，我练习时有一次就是太急了有几个单词念出来没被录进电脑。。这是我本身的一些经验，希望对你有帮助，不要太紧张，考前一定要睡好，个人感觉考场上状态比平时重要，退一万步讲，我们那届分数出来分数段在9-15分，15分很少，14分

2013年高考真题——英语(广东A卷)解析版

2018广东英语听说考试-A

2018A Part A This is one of the greatest masterpieces of Chinese landscape painting. When westerners first discovered Chinese paintings like this one, they could not see their value. To understand painting, you need to understand calligraphy. The character is not a picture of an object in the real world, but a symbol for an idea. As Chinese characters are symbols for ideas, so elements in a Chinese landscape, rocks, water, trees and mountains, became symbols of concepts. For the Chinese, pictures painted with a brush are symbols that carry both the surface meaning and additional hidden meanings. Chinese paintings are not just pretty pictures. They mean something. Part B 视频对话 W: Good afternoon, Dr. Brown. We are very honored to have you with us today. M: Thanks for inviting me, Mary. W: We know that you have been studying sleep and health for many years. M: Yes, I started my research in 2010. W: I know that good sleep makes me feel better, but I am not so sure about the specific health benefits of good sleep. M: Well, recently I have published a book named Sleep and Health. According to my research, good sleep benefits our mind, weight, heart and more. Yet, few of us realize that. Now more and more people, including young students, are having sleep problems. 1. 学生是如何受到睡眠影响的？ How are students affected by sleep? 电脑回答For children between the ages of 10 and 16, if they haven’t got enough sleep, they are more likely to have problems with attention and learning. College students who don’t get enough sleep have worse grades than those who do. So don’t sacrifice sleep even if you are trying to meet a deadline. Get a good sleep and you might get a good score. 2. 睡眠好还有其他什么好处吗？ Is there any other benefit of good sleep? 电脑回答Well, good sleep also helps you have a healthy weight. If you are thinking about going on a diet, you might need to plan an earlier bed time. People tend to feel more hungry and eat more when they get less sleep. Researchers find that dieter who sleep well lose more fat than those don’t. 3. 那意味着我们应该多睡觉吗？ Does that mean we should sleep more? 电脑回答Well, it depends. Too much or too little sleep is associated with a shorter lifespan. But sleep surely affects the quality of life. If you sleep better, you will certainly live better. It’s pretty clear. 1. When did Dr. Brown start his research on sleep and health?
