第一节：阅读下列材料，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

A

A note written to an Iowa radio station is getting worldwide attention.

The radio station has an annual tradition where listeners send in“wish letters，”and the hosts select a handful of wishes to broadcast.They've been making Christmas dreams come true for more than 20 years，but they have never received a letter quite like this.

Last week，the hosts of Des Moines radio station Star 102.5 invited listener David Schmitz to their annual Christmas show，but the station didn't tell Schmitz who had sent in the wish for his family.

They read this letter to him on the air：“Hello，my name is Brenda Schmitz，when you receive this letter，I will have already lost my battle to cancer.”

The letter was dated August 3，2011.Brenda Schmitz passed away less than two months after she wrote it.But Brenda Schmitz had given this note to a friend，with instructions on when to mail it.

The letter said：“I told her once my loving husband David had moved on in his life，and met someone to share his life with again，to mail this letter to all of you at the station.”

David Schmitz recently met and fell in love with Jayne Abraham.He asked her to marry him this September.

Brenda Schmitz had three wishes for the family she left behind，their four sons，as well as the new family David Schmitz was starting.She wrote，“I was hoping that one small act you all could do for me could change their lives forever，and they know I am with them always.”

The first wish was to David Schmitz's new partner.The letter said：“An impressive weekend.Make her smile，and know her__efforts__are__truly__appreciated__by__me．Thank you，I love you whoever you are.”

Her second wish was to David Schmitz and their children.She wrote，“For my family，a wonderful trip.Somewhere where they all can enjoy their companionship as a family and make

memories that will be with them forever.”

Lastly，Brenda Schmitz wanted to give a night of food and fun to the hospital staff that cared for her during her final days.

It was a letter David Schmitz wasn't expecting to receive，but one that didn't surprise him either.He said，“She had great foresight(远见)．But afterwards，quite touching.”

And as a part of her final wishes，Brenda Schmitz left a separate letter to David Schmitz's new wife.

Jayne said，“The biggest thing was that at the end of the letter，she said，‘I love you.’And that was the hardest，most pleasant thing that I received.”

Brenda Schmitz ended the letter with this：“May God bless and keep all of you safe there，thanks for this.When you wish upon a star，Brenda.”

A number of local businesses tried to make her wishes come true.They raised money，and will be sending the family to Disney World.

According to The Daily Telegraph in London，the year 2014 is a year worth expecting，because a lot of amazing inventions and new technology are coming into our life.

■Faster Online Deliveries

In this age of instant satisfaction，waiting days for Internet purchases to arrive seems very annoying.So，in 2014，Amazon and eBay will be stepping up their efforts to deliver goods on the same day they're bought，even if that day's a Sunday.Eventually，Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is testing unmanned delivery to bring products to our doors within half an hour.In the meantime，he's increasing his number of goods and cooperating with express companies to get us what we want as quickly as possible.

■The Swiss Army Knife Of Credit Cards

According to a recent survey，one in five consumers in America no longer carry any cash on them.In 2014，they won't need their plastic payment cards either.A San Francisco company—Coin has invented a device(装置) the same size as a credit card that holds the information of up to eight credit，membership，gift cards.Customers press a button to choose which one they want and then just use their Coin in the usual way.And if you lose your Coin？The card is connected to your smart phone and when the two are separated your phone receives an official notice.In other words：you can't leave home(or a shop，or a restaurant)without it.

■Trip To Mars

At present，if you feel like making the 54－million－mile trip to Mars，it would take you nine months.That's around 39 weeks dealing with all kinds of difficulties during the trip.But V ASIMR could change all that.Set to be tested aboard the International Space Station in late 2014 to early 2015，the Variable Specific Impulse Magnetoplasma Rocket is an experimental engine that，if it

works，could get us there in three months.V ASIMR takes a tiny bit of propellant(推进燃料)，heats it to very high temperatures (2，000，000 ℃) using radio waves，and then pushes it out at extremely high speeds.The result is a steady，continuous increase in speed，using far less fuel.

■Formula E Racing

If you think the atmosphere at a Formula 1 Grand Prix is electric，you're going to love the new motor sport starting.Formula E will see drivers racing around city－centre roads—including London—in battery(电池)－powered electric cars.The new championship，which is backed by the FIA，motor racing's governing body，promises cars as sexy as those driven by Lewis Hamilton，Sebastian Vettel et al，but with batteries and electric motors.While their top speed is expected to be 155mph，slower than Formula 1，the event will be made up for with exciting street circles and night events.The stops will be different too：with the batteries running out after 20 minutes，drivers won't just change their tires；they'll jump into new cars.The season is scheduled to start on September 13 in Beijing，with further races in the streets of Rio de Janeiro，Berlin and Los Angeles，before the final event in the centre of London on June 27，2015.

■More Transparent Shopping

With more people focusing on health，knowing where your product has been made or grown，and its way to market，has taken on a new importance.

Provenance(https://www.wendangku.net/doc/a911458033.html,)—a new type of search engine invented in January 2014 attempts to help us.From chocolate bars to jackets to shoes to chef's knives Provenance tells you where a product is made，who the maker is and what the product is made from.Provenance includes vivid personal stories from farmers，workers，craftspeople and so on.The site works in cooperation with everyone from small producers to large companies in the hope that，by simply taking the mystery out of supply chains and worldwide commerce，the site will help shoppers make better choices as well as gently force companies to improve their environmental and social influence.

【语篇导读】英国《每日电报讯》报道，2014年将是值得期待的一年，因为很多惊人的发明和科学技术将会进入人们的生活。让我们看看都是哪些发明吧。

D．consumers will never complain as long as they are offered quick delivery

解析细节理解题。根据第二段的“Eventually, Amazon founder...to bring products to our doors within half an hour”可知C项正确。

答案 C

A．a mobile phone that you can't go without

B．a company which makes Swiss army knives

C．a card used as usual but with many functions

D．a device eight times smaller than a credit card

A．the final event will be held in Beijing

D．Transparent shopping will raise people's awareness of health.

解析细节理解题。根据最后一段内容，尤其是最后一句“the site will help shoppers make better choices...to improve their environmental and social influence.”可知这种搜索引擎的确会让消费者获益匪浅。

答案 B

C

It has been said that“Happiness is like a butterfly which，when run after，is always beyond our grasp，but which，if you sit down quietly，may dance beside you.”

Social scientists have caught the butterfly.After 40 years of research，they find happiness results from three major origins：genes(基因)，events and values.Armed with this knowledge and a few simple rules，we can improve our lives and the lives of those around us.We can even construct a system that carries out our founders' promises and gives Americans the power to seek happiness.

Scientists have studied happiness for decades.They begin simply enough—by asking people how happy they are.

The data available to social scientists is the University of Chicago's General Social Survey，a survey of Americans conducted since 1972.The numbers on happiness from the survey are surprisingly similar.Every other year for four decades，about a third of Americans have said they're “very happy”and about half report being “prett y happy.”Only about 10 to 15 percent typically say they're “not too happy.”Scientists have used advanced techniques to check these responses，

and such survey results have proved accurate.

Beneath these averages are some differences.For many years，researchers found that women were happier than men，although recent studies show that the gap has narrowed or may even have changed to the opposite.Politicians might be interested to learn that traditional women feel particularly happy：about 40 percent say they are very happy.That makes them slightly happier than traditional men and obviously happier than open－minded women.The unhappiest of all are open－minded men；only about a fifth consider themselves very happy.

But even the people of the same age，sex，and so on vary in their happiness.What explains this?

The first answer involves our genes.Researchers at the University of Minnesota have tracked twins who were separated as babies and raised by separate families.These researchers found that we receive a surprising part of our happiness—around 48 percent from parents.(Since I discovered this，I've been blaming my parents for my bad moods.)

If about half of our happiness is determined by our genes，what about the other half？It's attractive to suppose that one－time events—like getting a dream job or receive an unexpected gift—will permanently bring the happiness we seek.And studies suggest that such events do control a big part of our happiness—up to 40 percent.

But while one－time events do govern a fair amount of our happiness，each event's influence proves rather short－lived.People suppose that major changes like moving to California or getting a big raise will make them permanently better off.They won't.Huge goals may take years of hard work to meet，and the struggle itself may be worthwhile，but the happiness they create dissipates after just a few months.

To review：About half of happiness is genetically determined.Up to an additional 40 percent comes from the things that have occurred in our recent past—but that won't last very long.

That leaves just about 12 percent.That might not sound like much，but the good news is that we can bring that 12 percent under our control.It turns out that choosing to seek four basic values of faith，family，community and work is the surest path to happiness, given that a certain percentage is genetic and not under our control in any way.To go after the happiness within our reach，we do best to devote ourselves to faith，family，community and meaningful work.

【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。研究人员经过40年的研究发现三种因素可带来幸福感，即基因，事件和价值观。

50．The first paragraph of the passage serves as ________．

A．a description of a scene

B．an introduction to the topic

C．an analysis of a research project

D．an explanation of an old saying

解析推理判断题。根据第一段，幸福就像翩翩起舞的蝴蝶，当追赶它时，总是抓不到；当你静静的坐着时，它们就会在你身边飞舞。结合下文，可知第一段旨在引出文章的主题：如何才能抓住幸福。

答案 B

51．It can be inferred from Paragraph 4 and Paragraph 5 that ________．

A．most Americans feel unhappy

B．women are always happier than men

C．about 40%of American women are very happy

D．traditional men are happier than open－minded women

解析推理判断题。根据第四段和第五段，特别是第五段最后两句“传统的女人幸福感略高于传统的男士，但非常明显的高于心胸开阔的女人”可推知传统的男士幸福感要高于心胸开阔的女人。因此D项正确。

答案 D

52．The underlined word“dissipates”(Paragraph 9) probably means ________．

A．disappear B．return

C．occur D．last

答案 A

A．age and sex contribute the most

B．genes play a tiny part

C．events hardly perform a function

答案 C

D

For 28 years，three months，and 12 days，I drove a New York City taxi.Now，if you were to ask me what I had for breakfast yesterday，I probably couldn't tell you.But the memory of one fare is so vivid.I'll remember it all my days in this world.

It was a sunny Monday morning in the spring of 1966.I was looking for a customer down York Avenue.I had stopped at a light just opposite New York Hospital when I spied a well－dressed man dashing down the hospital steps.Finally，the man reached the taxi and jumped in.“LaGuardia Airport，please，”he said.

As always，I wondered about my passenger.Was this guy a talker，a shut－up，a newspaper reader？After a few moments，he started a conversation.It began ordinarily enough：“How do you like driving a taxi？”

It__was__a__stock__question，and I gave him my stock answer.“It's OK，”I said.“I make a living and meet interesting people sometimes.But if I could get a job making $100 a week more，I'd take it—just like you would.”

His reply aroused my interest.“I would not change jobs if it meant I had to take a cut of a hundred a week.”

I'd never heard anyone say such a thing.“What do you do？”

“I'm in the neurology department(神经内科)at New York Hospital.”

Maybe it was that this fellow clearly loved his work；maybe it was just the pleasant mood of a spring morning.But I decided to ask for his help.We were not far from the airport now，so I went ahead.

“Could I ask a big favor of you？”He didn't answer.“I have a son，15，a good kid.He's doing well in school.We'd like him to go to camp this summer，but he wants a job.”I paused.“Is there any possibility that you might get him some kind of a summer job—even if he doesn't get paid？”

He still wasn't talking，and I was starting to feel foolish for bringing up the subject.Finally，he said，“Well，the medical students have a summer research project.Maybe he could fit in.Have him send me his school record.”

He fished around in his pocket for a card but couldn't find one.“Do you have any paper？”he asked.

I tore off a piece of my brown lunch bag，and he wrote down something and paid me.It was the last time I ever saw him.

That evening，sitting around the dining room table with my family，I pulled the paper from my shirt pocket.“Robbie，”I announced proudly，“this could be a summer job for you.”He read it out loud：“Fred Plum.N.Y.Hosp.”

My wife：“Is he a doctor？”

My daughter：“Is he an apple？”

My son：“Is this a joke？”

After I warned to cut off his pocket money，Robbie sent off his grades the next morning.The fruit jokes continued for a few days，but gradually the incident was forgotten.

Two weeks later，when I arrived home from work，my son was smiling wildly.He handed me a letter addressed to him.The letterhead read“Fred Plum，MD，Neurologist－in－Chief，New York Hospital.”He was to call Dr.Plum's secretary for an interview.

Robbie got the job.The white lab coat he wore made him feel a lot more important than he really was as he followed Dr.Plum around the hospital，doing small tasks for him.

The following summer，Robbie worked at the hospital again，but this time，he was given more responsibility.As high school graduation neared，Dr.Plum was kind enough to write letters of recommendation for college.Much to our delight，Robbie was accepted at Brown University.

He worked at the hospital for a third summer and gradually developed a love of the medical profession.As college graduation approached，Robbie applied to medical school，and Dr.Plum again wrote letters proving his ability and character.

Robbie was admitted to New York Medical College and，after getting his medical degree，did a four－year practice specializing in OB－GYN.

Dr.Robert Stern，the son of a taxi driver，became OB－GYN chief physician at Columbia－Presbyterian Medical Center.

Some might call it fate，and I guess it was.But it shows you that big chances can come out of ordinary meetings—even something as ordinary as a taxi ride.

第二节：下面文章中有5处(第61～65题)需要添加小标题。请从以下选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中选出适合各段意思的小标题。选项中有一项是多余选项。

A．Enjoy the process

B．Try different ways

C．Gain social support

D．Track your progress

E．Treat it as a long battle

F．Have confidence in yourself

A new chapter is now opening in your life.But while so many people like you desire to achieve ambitious goals，only 12% of you will ever experience the taste of victory.Sound bad？It is 156 million people(that's 156，000，000)will probably give up on their plan halfway.Keep on reading to learn why your plans fail and how to succeed.

Note：Since losing weight is the most common plan，I chose to focus on weight loss(but these principles can be applied to just about any goal you think of—make it work for you！)．61．________

Slow and steady habit change might not be sexy，but it's a lot more effective than the“I want

it ALL and I want it NOW！”mentality.Small changes stick better because they aren't frightening(if you do it right，you'll barely even notice them！)．

If you have a lot of bad habits today，the last thing you need to do is remodel your entire life overnight.Want to lose weight？Stop it with the crash diets and unreasonable exercise plans.Instead of following a strictly controlled plan that bans anything fun，add one positive habit per week.For example，you could start with something easy like drinking more water during your first week.The following week，you could move on to eating 3 fruits and vegetables every day.And the next week，you could aim to eat a fistful of protein at every meal.

62．________

A failure to act can discourage you before you leave the starting line.If you've tried but failed to set a plan(or several) in the past，I know it might be hard to believe in yourself.Doubt is a complaining voice in your head that will resist personal growth with every bit of its being.The only way to defeat doubt is to believe in yourself.Who cares if you've failed a time or two？This year，you can try again(but better this time)．

63．________

Is it any wonder people struggle with their weight when they see eating as a routine and exercise as a tiring and boring thing？The best fitness plan is one that causes the least interruption to your daily life.The goal isn't to add stress to your life，but rather to remove it.

The best of us couldn't bring ourselves to do something we hate consistently，so make getting in shape fun，however you've got to do it.That could be participating in a sport you love，exercising with a good friend or two，joining a group exercise class so you can meet new people，or giving yourself one “free day”per week where you forget about your training plan and exercise in any way you please.

64．________

Keeping a written record of your training progress will help you sustain an “I CAN do this”attitude.All you need is a notebook and a pen.For every workout，record what exercises you do，the number of repetitions performed，and how much weight you used if applicable.Your goal？Do better next time.Improving your best performance on a regular basis offers positive information that will encourage you to keep going.

65．________

It can be hard to stay motivated when you feel alone.The good news？You're not alone：far from it.Post a status on Facebook asking your friends if anybody would like to be your companion.If you know a co－worker who shares your goal，try to adjust your lunch time and go out together so you'll be more likely to make positive decisions.Join a support group of like－minded folks on Facebook，Linkedln，or elsewhere on the Internet.Strength in numbers is powerful，so use it to your advantage.

【语篇导读】每个人都希望实现自己的伟大理想，但只有百分之十二的人能品尝到胜利的果实，因为大多数人中途就放弃了。本文会帮你了解我们为什么会失败和如何成功。

61．解析主旨大意题。根据下文可知，制定了计划和目标，就要做好打持久战的心里准备，比如减肥。

答案 E

62．解析主旨大意题。根据下文中的“The only way to defeat doubt is to believe in yourself”及本段，F项符合语境。

答案 A

64．解析主旨大意题。根据本段第一句，记录你减肥的过程会有助于保持积极的态度。

答案 D

65．解析主旨大意题。根据本段，如果一个人孤军奋战可能很难保持激情，那么你最好找到和你目标一样的人，相互支持，一起努力。

高考英语二轮复习策略

高考英语二轮复习策略 英语卷无论是考试形式、试题结构，坚持稳定为主，注重基础考查，重点考查考生“在特定语境中语言运用能力”，即运用英语获取信息、处理信息、分析问题和解决问题的能力。始终不变的重点知识，考生应该将其列为复习内容，同时抓牢基础知识，不要一味做偏、难、怪题。现提供以下三大点备考建议供参考： 一、回归基础，突出对主干知识的复习 高考英语改革虽然从强调知识考查向注重综合语言运用能力转变，但是还应认识到能力要有扎实的基础作为依托。尤其是到最后冲刺阶段更要重视基础知识的复习。一模后，一些考生普遍都有这样的感觉：很多题目“一看就会，一做就错”。造成这种现象的根本原因在于对基础知识的掌握不牢固。只有扎扎实实地从基础做起，才能“一看就会，一做就对”。英语基础知识包括词汇、语法、句型等。词汇复习应做到从不间断、反复巩固。除了记忆和理解之外，尤其要注意常用词汇的使用和辨析，以及一词多义的掌握。语法复习要理清基本概念，着重复习主干知识。比如，动词的时态、语态、语气，非谓语动词、情态动词等都是高考常涉及的知识点。但切记不要在钻研语法的难点上花过多时间，

英语语法不是数学公式，在不同的语境中用法就不同。 二、查漏补缺，强化专题训练 一模结束后，复习的重点要放在查漏补缺上。将做过的试卷整理后，建立错题档案，弥补知识漏洞，进行强化记忆和训练。比如，在建立错题档案时发现在非谓语动词、从句方面出错率比较高，就应该重点复习这方面的知识。不要注重记多少题，重要的是记住老师在课堂上对这些题的分析过程。抄录资料或刊物上的讲解也是值得推荐的方法。到考试前再回顾、反思、比较、消化，以期达到遇到同类试题不再出错的目的。复习中要加强题型专项训练，在训练中提高解题能力和解题速度；尤其要重视听力训练，所选听力材料不宜过难，语速要适中。复习中应适当加强对重点内容的强化训练和题后分析，提高“考点识别、寻找已知条件、排错求证”的思维能力。训练快速阅读的能力，提高带着问题快速搜索信息，根据上下文提示进行逻辑推断的能力。多读一些原汁原味的文章，通过广泛涉猎，培养英语语感，提高对词、句、篇的理解速度和准确度。专项训练要多、模拟测试要适当。 强调阅读语速是语言实际运用的主要特征之一，一般应保持在60wpm左右，按照“高中英语课程标准”要求，高中毕业时甚至应该达到70―80wpm.在平时训练中一定要注意 坚持阅读速度的要求。在真实语言环境中，所接触材料的篇

高考英语 第二轮复习策略

2012高考英语第二轮复习策略 2011年，全国很多地区进入了新课改，新课改高考英语究竟怎么考？试卷结构如何？同学们该如何备考才能达到最佳效果？这些都是学校、英语教师、学生和家长都比较关注的一个热点话题。 整体上看，2011年各地新课改高考英语试卷都严格按照考试大纲和各省考试说明的要求编制，试题有较高的区分度。 试卷保持了“稳中有变，变中求新”的基本命题思路，始终坚持了“突出语篇，强调应用，注重交际”这一命题原则。单项填空题着重考查在语境中的语法运用和对词义的正确理解，不拘泥于单纯的知识点，而加强了对知识点综合运用能力的考查；完形填空更加注重篇章结构能力的考查，加强对“预阅”能力的考查，要从前后句和前后段的综合理解、推断中才能作出选择；阅读理解直接从文章中找答案的题目逐渐少了，主观推测的题目逐渐变了，出现“推测作者意图”的题目；改错题逐步弱化语法，增强篇章综合分析能力；书面表达从几种日常写作题型格式逐渐注重实际运用。 除此之外，部分省市的试卷中采用了新题型或在原有的题型上做了一些新的调整，从命题上更加“注重基础、强调应用、突出语篇、注重交际”，试题越来越注意题目设置的巧妙、灵活性、通用性、应用性、社会性。越来越注意对学生能力的考查，渗透着新课改的思想。 变化篇：重基础→考点考查，稳中求进，尝试新题型。 通过认真分析2011年新课改后全国各省（市、区）的高考英语试题，新课改后各省（市、区）的高考英语试题有一些共性，也有一些差异。 基础知识：英语知识运用测试的内容基本为单项填空（语法和词汇知识）和完形填空。差异性比较大的是广东省和陕西省。广东省测试的方向为语言知识及运用，内容分为完形填空测试和语法填空测试两个板块。陕西省在英语知识运用方面测试的方向为语音知识（满分5分）、情景对话（满分5分）、单项填空（满分15分）和完形填空（满分30分）。 阅读理解：在阅读理解方面大部分地区测试的形式相同。安徽、福建、浙江等3个地区阅读篇数为5篇；宁夏、海南、吉林、黑龙江、山东、陕西、北京、江苏、天津、辽宁等10个地区阅读篇数为4篇；广东、湖南、上海等3地区阅读理解只有3篇。广东省在阅读方面增加了信息匹配试题，即阅读一篇应用文及相关信息，按照要求匹配信息。湖南省在写作中增加了任务型阅读和阅读表达。上海市把阅读分为四个板块来测试，包括完形填空、阅读理解、选择标题和读写阅读。

However I have learned that having one best friend is not the way to go. It's so much better to have many great friends. As I was coming into Middle School, I was really excited because my friend Jennifer was going to be in the same Middle School! At first things were great, she introduced me to her friend Amy and we had lots of fun together. Then things started to change. Jennifer was very controlling: I couldn't make new friends, and pretty soon being Jennifer's friend was a struggle. Jennifer wanted to be the "leader" of our little group. Amy and I were never partners with each other in class projects or gym; it was always, "Who gets the privilege（特权）of being Jennifer's partner." Amy and I both wanted to be Jennifer's number one. I always waited for Jennifer and Amy after classes. They chatted by Jennifer's desk as Jennifer packed her books up and I waited by the door. Sometimes when they left, they'd walk right past me. No "Thanks for waiting." No "Sorry we took so long." It was as if they couldn't even see me. After months of living through school this way, I had really changed. I was moody, depressed, lonely. I spent lots of days trying not to cry, I felt so left out. Finally, near the very end of the school year, I was so incredibly sick of having to battle for friendship. I stopped sitting with Jennifer at lunch and stopped waiting for her after class. It was tough at first, but now, I have tons of friends. We have fun and happy times together and I love them all to bits. It amazes me how easy our friendship is. There's no struggling to be on top. I wish Jennifer could understand. Maybe one day she'll look back at what happened and she'll change, but even though I lost a friend, I am a happier person. 21. What is the purpose of the writer writing this passage? A. to describe her school life B. to criticize the way Jennifer treated her friends C. to show her regret towards losing a friend. D. to advise girls to make many friends instead of one 22.What does the sentence “Things started to change” refer to? A. The writer lost interest in study. B. Lessons became more and more difficult. C. Being Jennifer’s friend beca me a struggle. D. The writer gave up the friendship with Jennifer. 23. What can be implied from the last paragraph?

高考英语二轮复习策略

高考英语二轮复习策略 高三英语复习在如火如荼的进行着，同学们的复习效果可谓是冰火两重天，有的同学掌握了英语的学习规律，复习的十分轻松，有的同学因为不得法，整天向我抱怨英语难学，有的甚至因为英语的瘸腿而与名牌大学失之交臂，许多家长也对孩子的英语是忧心忡忡。小编的八个必方法供同学们参考。 一、多听老师的，少自作主张 虽然同学们之前经历过很多考试，但高考对于我们来讲还是有些陌生。就算有些学生在高一、高二已经做过高考题，对于自己的知识缺陷到底有哪些，高考的重点是什么也不一定有非常清晰的了解。而高三的英语第一轮复习主要就是从语法和词法两个方面帮助大家梳理知识，并对应试策略加以指导。教高三的教师大都有着非常丰富的高考经验，也都会制定详细的教学计划，因此我们在安排自己的复习内容时要尽量和老师同步，把当天复习的内容彻底搞清楚，并辅以相应的练习加以巩固。遇到不会的，应该第一时间请教老师，千万不要留到最后甚至弃置不管。 二、多用碎时间，少搞大突击 英语学科是非常适合利用零碎时间来学习的。五分钟的时间能干什么?也许别的学科可以安排的复习活动并不多，但是英语却有很多。比如我们可以背单词，可以做一篇速读，

可以朗读一篇文章，可以做若干个单项选择，可以听听力，可以翻看任何英语的杂志、报刊甚至小说等。总而言之，时间是海绵里的水，挤挤总是有的。当然，如果我们要复习一个比较重要的语法项目，或者做一套英语试题的时候，我们也需要相对完整的时间，但基于语言学习的灵活性，同学们要培养语言学习的意识。Learning is anytime, anywhere with anyone。(学习无处不在)有些学生在制定自己的复习计划时，把一个星期中的七天分别给了不同的科目，这样做是不太科学的。正确的做法是每天复习两至三科为宜，而英语虽然持续时间不需要很长，但每天都接触确实十分必要的。A little bit every day makes perfect(点滴铸就完美)。 三、多接触英语，少钻研语法 近几年的高考越来越重视同学们运用英语的能力，逐渐削弱了对于语法的考察。纵观一份高考英语试卷，单纯考察语法的题目几乎没有。善于观察的学生更会发现，即使是在语法聚集的单项选择题中，也是强调语境的理解。此外，还逐渐加大了词义、词语辨析的考察。完形填空的四个选项是没有语法的错误的，考察大家是否能够根据文章的意思，选择用法上最恰当的词。阅读理解更是考察大家对于篇章的理解。当然，语法并不是不重要，有很多重点的项目是需要同学们掌握的。只是提醒大家在复习的时候，要做到从语言的

高考英语第二轮复习的技巧和策略

2012年高考英语第二轮复习的技巧和策略 基础知识:英语知识运用测试的内容基本为单项填空(语法和词汇知识)和完形填空。差异性比较大的是广东省和陕西省。广东省测试的方向为语言知识及运用,内容分为完形填空测试和语法填空测试两个板块。陕西省在英语知识运用方面测试的方向为语音知识(满分5分)、情景对话(满分5分)、单项填空(满分15分)和完形填空(满分30分)。 阅读理解:在阅读理解方面大部分地区测试的形式相同。安徽、福建、浙江等3个地区阅读篇数为5篇;宁夏、海南、吉林、黑龙江、山东、陕西、北京、江苏、天津、辽宁等10个地区阅读篇数为4篇;广东、湖南、上海等3地区阅读理解只有3篇。广东省在阅读方面增加了信息匹配试题,即阅读一篇应用文及相关信息,按照要求匹配信息。湖南省在写作中增加了任务型阅读和阅读表达。上海市把阅读分为四个板块来测试,包括完形填空、阅读理解、选择标题和读写阅读。 书面表达:书面表达是新课标各地区都考查的一个方面,但是还是有一些差异。广东和北京是比较有特点的两个地区。广东考查的是基础写作和读写任务写作两部分,满分40分;北京考查的是情景作文和开放作文两部分,满分35分;其他几个地区考查的都是根据所给内容写一篇短文,满分25分(宁夏、海南、吉林、黑龙江、安徽、天津、辽宁、福建、湖南、江苏)或者30分(山东、陕西、浙江、上海)。 短文改错、单词拼写:短文改错和单词拼写已经逐渐被新的题型所替代。新课改省份只有陕西省既测试了单词拼写,又测试了短文改错;宁夏、海南、吉林、黑龙江、辽宁、浙江等6个地区考查了短文改错,测试的方式和以往的高考短文改错已经有所不同。广东、山东、安徽、天津、湖南、江苏、上海等7个地区测试的是读写任务、阅读表达、任务型读写、任务型阅读或者句子翻译等题型。上海测试了翻译句子。 从试题对学生英语能力的考查方向来说,新课改后各地区的英语试题重点在考查学生的听、读和写等三个方面的能力;考查学生运用英语知识来获取信息、处理信息和传达信息的能力、分析问题和解决问题的能力以及用英语进行思维和表达的能力。从试题的模块设置上来看,对听力的考查是个大趋势,新课改后只有陕西在高考试题中没有设置听力测试,其余15个地区都考查了英语听力。英语知识运用(语法、词汇、完形填空等)、阅读理解和写作是英语考查的三个主要方面,以后可能会继续考查下去。读写任务、阅读表达、任务型读写、任务型阅读或者句子翻译等类型的试题会逐渐普及开来。单词拼写、语音知识、情景对话、短文改错很可能会慢慢的退出高考英语试题的历史舞台,被新的题型所替代。 策略篇:重基础→提能力,构建“点?线?面”的立体复习网络 新课标体系下的新高考其考查目的有别于传统模式下的高考,最主要体现的是对同学们使用英语能力的考查,强调在具体语言环境下,听力﹑单词﹑语法、阅读、写作等方面的“实战应用”。因此同学们在复习时的策略应在“用”字上下工夫。即“以用为本”。强调在具体语言环境下,单词语法、阅读、写作等方面的“实战应用”。下面针对具体的部分我将分别给出建议,供大家参考。 1. 听力:分场景听。分成不同的场景,进行专项训练。这样可以有效地总结相关的单词和句型。加深对单词与短语在具体某一环境的理解,并熟练掌握相关话题的出题点。做到遇词不生,遇景不慌。加强对广播和英语电视新闻的主题和大意理解。强化态度题和观点题训练。除平时坚持听力训练外,早自习读书强调读出声也是很重要的一方面。在二轮复习中,同学们可以根据各个话题进行专题训练。 (2)单词:分文章记。新课标的词汇要求:7级要求学会使用2 400~2 500个单词和300~400个习惯用语或固定搭配。8级要求学会使用3 300个单词和400~500个习惯用语或固定搭配。如何记这些单词呢?玖久《专项突破英语》的主讲专家肖鹏老师建议,应该针对不同的场景和

At the same time, a new industry was just being born: the cinema. America’s movie industry began life in New York; but by 1910, movie-makers were moving to Los Angeles. In New York, everything was too expensive: workers, land, taxes. Moreover, it was difficult to make movies in winter, because it was too cold. The Los Angeles region, on the other hand, was full of advantages. In California, they could make films all through the year; and everything was cheaper. In particular, there was lots of land for sale, especially in the Los Angeles suburb called Hollywood. Mo vies quickly became very popular, and this popularity exploded after “talkies” first appeared in 1925. Nevertheless, movies were expensive to produce, and film companies needed money-lots of it. For this reason, Hollywood rapidly became controlled by a small number of big companies such
