2011中石油系统职称英语备考攻略2010中石油系统职称英语备考攻略

考试五大题型:词汇、语法、阅读理解、完型填空、翻译

一、词汇

1、考查目的:主要考查近义单词和词组的用法区别。

2、答题要求:要求应试者从每题四个选择项中选一最佳答案符合句意。

3、题目出处:大纲词汇(4分)+课文中句子填空(14-16个句子，大约14分左右)(根据历年真题总结，仅供参考)

4、题量:20个句子

5、分值:20分

6、复习建议

词汇是英语学习的基础，中石油系统职称英语考试不允许带词典，这就在一定程度上加大了考试的难度，因此，要求考生在复习过程中要大量积累和记忆单词。

运用适当的记忆方法去记忆单词。建议考生结合一定的词汇记忆的方法如谐音记忆、拆分法等去记忆单词，这样可以大大提高记忆单词的效率。新东方在线余浩老师讲解的词汇记忆法的课程，帮助学员掌握词汇记忆技巧，快速记忆和积累单词。

重点掌握中石油职称考试中的核心词汇。对申报不同级别的应试者要求认知的词汇量不等。申报A级的人员应熟练认知5000个左右的单词和短语;申报B级的人员应熟练认知4000个左右的单词和短语。由于在较短的时间内不可能掌握这么多单词，因此需要考生掌握考试大纲与教材文章中的重点单词，这就要求考生根据大纲词汇表与教材文章中列举的单词进行归纳和总结出考试中常考和较难掌握的单词作为记忆的重点。

坚持“循序渐进、反复记忆”的原则。为了避免单词“背了就忘”，建议大家要每天坚持背诵3-10对单词，并进行反复记忆，这样记单词就会印象更深。不容易遗忘。

二、语法

1、考查目的:主要考查语法结构的用法。

2、答题要求:要求应试者从每题4个选择项中选一最佳答案。

3、题目出处:课文中句子填空(3个左右句子)(根据历年真题总结，仅供参考)

4、题量:20个句子

5、分值:20分

6、复习建议

由于中石油所考的语法知识相对难度较大，涉及到了虚拟语气、强调句、倒装句等较难语法现象，因此考生在备考过程中要系统的把中石油职称英语考试中常考的语法点进行复习。中石油职称英语常考语法点如下:

1)名词、代词的数和格的构成及其用法。

2)动词基本时态、语态的构成及其用法。

3)形容词与副词的比较级和最高级的构成及其用法。

4)常用连接词的词义及其用法。

5)非谓语动词(不定式、动名词、分词)的构成及其用法。

6)虚拟语气的构成及其用法。

7)各类从句(定语从句、主语从句、表语从句等)的基本用法及强调句型的结构。

8)常用倒装句的结构。

包括掌握每个语法点的含义、基本用法、与其他语法现象的辨析等，并利用相关习题进行语法知识应用的巩固与加强。新东方在线2010-中石油系统职称英语-

语法详讲课程帮助学员恢复及巩固英语的基础知识为考试应付语法题型、阅读教材文章、翻译技巧的学习奠定的坚实的基础。

三、阅读理解

1、考查目的:测试考生通过阅读获取信息的能力，要求既理解准确，又有一定的阅读速度。

2、答题要求:应试者根据短文的内容从四个备选答案中选择一个最佳答案。

3、题目出处:5篇文章，其中有2篇(约12分)可能来自于中石油系统指定教材，其他3篇(18分)为教材外文章(根据历年真题总结，仅供参考)

4、题量:5篇短文各300,450词

5、分值:30分

6、复习建议:

阅读理解的复习要坚持“两手抓，两手都要硬”的原则。考生在复习过程中，既要掌握教材上全部60篇文章，包括文章的涉及到的词汇、语法及文章的意义、考点等。同时更重要的是抓阅读理解的解题技巧。这就需要考生从现在开始就进行阅读理解答题技巧如，认真学习解决主旨题、推论题等的解题技巧，应付教材外的3篇文章。

四、完形填空

1、考查目的:主要考查包括动词形式的变化和近义词的辨析

2、答题要求:应试者在全面理解短文内容的基础上，从所给出的四个选择项中选出一个正确的答案填入空白处，使短文的意思和结构恢复完整。

3、题目出处:出自教材外的文章(根据历年真题总结，仅供参考)

4、题量:1篇短文 (约300词的长度)

5、分值:10分

6、复习建议:

由于完形填空题型一般都考教材外的文章，因此在复习过程中在词汇、语法等基础知识的恢复巩固的基础上进行解题技巧的重点学习。

完形填空题型一般考查三个方面(1)语法知识(2)固定搭配(3)上下文的逻辑关系。因此考生在复习过程中就要从这三个方向着手复习，在进行完型填空题型的复习的过程中注意语法知识的积累与巩固，同时注意记忆考试中常考的固定搭配并进行相关练习来巩固，上下文的逻辑关系，要通过多做题，注意上下段落一些承上启下的衔接词，通过这些词来帮助考生理解上下文的关系。五、翻译

1、考查目的:主要考查考生综合运用语法知识、阅读能力、文化背景知识及翻译技巧等英语综合运用能力。

2、答题要求:要求应试者在全面理解短文内容的基础上，将原文传递的信息准确的用汉语表达出来。

3、题目出处:出自教材内的文章(根据历年真题总结，仅供参考)

4、题量:1篇，A级为约260个英语单词的英语短文;B级约为160个英语单词的英语短文

5、分值:20分

6、复习建议:

由于翻译题型是一般考查的是教材上的内容，因此考生在学习过程中，要掌握真正教材中文章中每句话中涉及到的生词、语法点及句型结构等，这是做好翻译题的关键。

同时学习一些常用的翻译题型解题，如正译法、反译法、增译法等，并通过文章的练习使这些技巧得到熟练应用。

经过以上分析，词汇题考生平时积累与记忆单词，通过努力会得到15分左右;语法部分会至少得到10分;阅读理解题型会至少得到20分(12分可能来自教材+18分通过技巧得到);完型填空至少得到一半的分数5分;最后翻译通过教材文章及技

巧的学习可以得到15分。加起来已经65分，所以说，相信只要您努力备考学习，顺利通过考试是没有问题的～

2013中石油职称英语考试课文详解

1.The V alue of Time时间的价值 1."Time" says the proverb "is money". This means that every moment well-spent may put some money into our pockets. If our time is usefully employed, it will either produce some useful and important piece of work which will fetch its price in the market, or it will add to our experience and increase our capacities so as to enable us to earn money when the proper opportunity comes. There can thus be no doubt that time is convertible into money. Let those who think nothing of wasting time remember this; let them remember that an hour misspent is equivalent to the loss of a banknote; and that an hour utilized is tantamount to so much silver or gold; and then they will probably think twice before they give their consent to the loss of any part of their time. 1.employ v. 使用，采用，雇佣，使忙于 employer n. 雇主，老板 employee n. 雇员，从业人员 employment n. 使用，职业，雇佣 Employment rate 就业率，雇用率 2.Either …or… 要么…要么…; 二者择一的 Neither… nor… 两者都不 Both… and… 两者都 3.fetch 取来，接来，到达 4.add to增添，添加，加强 5.so as to 以便，以致 6.enable sb to do sth 使得某人做某事 7.There is no doubt that…毫无疑问 8.think nothing of… 把… 视为平常 think a lot of… 看重；对… 高度评价 9.convertible adj. 可改变的，可交换的 convert v. … into… 使转变，转换，使…改变信仰 10.be equivalent to… 11.be tantamount to…相当于…; 无异于的 If you say one thing is tantamount to another, more serious thing, you are emphasizing how bad, unacceptable, or unfortunate the first thing is by comparing it to the second thing. 例句：What Bracey is saying is tantamount to heresy. 布里斯正在说的无异于异端邪说。 12.Think twice再三考虑，重新考虑 think twice about doing sth. 三思而后再决定做某事 13.Give one’s consent（n.）to sth…同意，赞成 例句：At approximately 11:30 p.m., pollard finally gave his consent to the search. 大约晚上11：30的时候，波拉得终于对搜查予以同意。

职称英语等级考试试题-综合

职称英语等级考试试题-综合A6 第三篇Play Play is the principal business of childhood, and in recent years research has shown the great importance of play in the development of a human being. From earliest infancy, every child needs opportunity and the right materials for play, and the main tools of play are toys. Their main function is to suggest, encourage and assist play. To succeed in this they must be good toys, which children will play with often, and will come back to again and again. Therefore it is important to choose suitable toys for different stages of a child’s development. In recent years research on infant development has shown that the standard a child is likely to reach, within the range of his inherited abilities, is largely determined in the first three years of his life. So a baby’s ability to profit from the right play materials should not be underestimated. A baby who is encouraged and stimulated, talked to and shown things and played with, has the best chance of growing up successfully. In the next stage, from three to five years old, curiosity knows no bounds. Every type of suitable toy should be made available to the child, for trying out, experimenting and learning, for discovering his own particular ability. Bricks and jigsaws（七巧板）and construction toys; painting, scribbling(涂鸦) and making things; sand and water play; toys for imaginative and pretending play; the first social games for learning to play and get on with others. Bt the third stage of play development-from five to seven or eight years-the child is at school. But for a few more years play is still the best way of learning, at home or at school. It is easier to see which type of toys the chills most enjoys.

2011年职称英语理工A、B级新增文章含个人翻译46奇妙的超级材料

Marvelous metamaterials Invisibility cloaks would have remained impossible, forever locked in science fiction, had it not been for the development of metamaterials. In Greek, “meta” means beyond, and metamaterials can do things beyond what we see in the natural world — like shuffle light waves around an object, and then bring them back together. If scientists ever manage to build a full-fledged invisibility cloak, it will probably be made of metamaterials. “We are creating materials that don’t exist in nature, and that have a physical phenomenon that doesn’t exist in nature,” says engineer Dentcho Genov. “That is the most exciting thing.”Genov designs and builds metamaterials — such as those used in cloaking — at Louisiana Tech University in Ruston, Louisiana. An invisibility cloak will probably not be the first major accomplishment to come from the field of metamaterials. Other applications are just as exciting. In many labs, for example, scientists are working on building a hyperlens. A lens is a device — usually made of glass — that can change the direction of light waves. Lenses are used in microscopes and cameras to focus light, thus allowing a researcher to see small things or a photographer to capture image of things that are far away. A hyperlens, however, would be made of metamaterials. And since metamaterials can do things with light that ordinary materials can’t, the hyperlens would be a powerful tool. A hyperlens would allow researchers to see things at the smallest scale imaginable — as small as the wavelength of visible light.

Travel Across Africa For six hours we shot through the barren（荒芜的）landscape of the Karoo desert in South Africa.Just rocks and sand and baking sun.Knowing our journey was ending,Daniel and I just wanted to remember all we had seen and done.He used a camera. I used words.I had already finished three notebooks and was into the fourth,a beautiful leather notebook I’d bought in a market in Mozambique. Southern Africa was full of stories.And visions.We were almost drunk on sensations.The roaring（咆哮）of the water at Victoria Falls,the impossible silence of the Okavango Delta in Botswana. And then the other things:dogs in the streets,whole families in Soweto living in one room a kilometre from clean water. As we drove towards the setting sun,a quietness fell over us.The road was empty—we hadn’t seen another car for hours. And as I drove,something caught my eye,something moving close
