Reading Passage 阅读文章

You are the first to arrive at the table in the back corner of the restaurant. As you sit down, a handsome stranger comes to table and takes the seat across from you. You read his name on his nametag, “Jason.” Once is seated, a bell rings and your date begins!

As you scan your list of conversation topics, the man across the table asks about your hobbies. From there, the conversation naturally flows back and forth from your interests to his interests to your job to his job. You are both careful not to ask questions that are too personal, such as “Where do you live?” or “What’s your last name?” Then the bell rings again. It’s time to move on. As you make your way to the next table, you quickly mark your date card. You write the man’s name on the card. Under the question “Would you like to meet again for a real date?”, you mark “yes.” Then you take a seat for your next date.

Welcome to the world of speed dating! This is the latest way for single people to meet other people they might like to date without the pressure associated with the conventional dating scene. Many businesses offering speed dating services have become especially popular in the United States, England, and Canada. These businesses organize events where participants can have dozens and some services limit each date to only three minutes. This gives people just enough time to make an impression, so that each person in the “date” can decide if they want to meet the other again. If both people mark “yes” on the date card, the service will arrange for the people to contact one another to arrange a real date.

The idea for speed dating came from Yaacov Deyo of Los Angeles. In 1999, he wanted to

provide an alternative way for his students to get together other than using blind dates arranged through family or friends. His speed dating idea was so successful, that if quickly spread to other communities across the United States. Deyo and his wife also wrote a book, SpeedDating: A Timesaving Guide to Finding Your Lifelong Love, to teach other people the keys to successful speed dating. Then businesses were set up to try to cash in on the popularity of speed dating. And after a popular television sit-com did an episode on speed dating, dating services across the United States really took off.

Like any date, speed dating does not always work out. But most services claim to have at least a 50 percent success rate for daters. And in the case of Erik and Denise from Milwaukee, their night of speed dating eventually led to marriage. But the funny thing is they never actually had a speed date together. They just saw each other at a speed dating event and decided to exchange phone numbers at the end of the evening.

They were all left-handed, along with other famous people including Pablo Picasso, Prince William, and Marilyn Monroe. In fact, an estimated 11 percent of Americans and Europeans are left-handed. Most people around the world are right-handed. This fact also seems to have held true throughout history. In 1977, scientists studied works of art made at various times in history starting with cave drawings from 15,000 B.C. and ending with paintings from the 1950s. Most of the people shown in these works of art are right-handed, so scientists guessed that right-handedness has always been common. Many researchers claim to have found relationships between left-handedness and various 1 and 2 characteristics, such as blond hair, blue eyes, 3 , and sleep difficulties. Other studies have found a higher-than-normal level of left-handed people in certain 4 , including professional baseball and tennis players, 5 , lawyers, as well as prisoners. However, some of these connections are very weak, and others haven’t been proven. What makes a person become right-handed rather than left-handed? As yet, no one really knows for sure. One simple idea suggests that people normally get right-handedness form their parents. Studies have found that two right-handed parents have only a 9.5 percent chance of having a left-handed child, whereas two left-handed parents have a 26 percent chance of having a left-handed child. Another common theory is that left-handed people suffer 6 brain 7

浅谈如何利用多媒体上英语课

浅谈如何利用多媒体上英语课 马王堆中学陶旷 多媒体就是利用现代科学技术手段来储存和传递信息的工具。多媒体教学技术在英语教学中的使用将大大促进英语教学的成效。多媒体软件集图像、声音、文字于一体，通过生动形象、活泼的形式使学生身临其境地学习英语。 那么，如何利用多媒体上好一堂英语课呢？ 一、要有明确的教学目标： 无论是传统的教学方式，还是电化教学方式，每堂课必须要有教学目标。确定了教学目标，教学活动才能有的放矢。教学目标包括通过英语教学，使学生受到听说、读、写的全面训练，获得理解，分析语言知识的能力，从而达到初步运用英语的能力。 二、充分发挥多媒体在教学中的辅助作用： 一个优秀的多媒体外语辅助教学软件可在计算机上模拟外语环境，并附有生动的图像、解释、使学生在计算机上学英语单词、语音、语法、同时，还能参与有趣味性的情景训练。多媒体软件集图像、声音、文体于一身。给学生以耳目一新的感觉，从而使每个学生都在轻松愉快中学到一堂课应该掌握的词汇和句型，通过生动形象活泼的形式使学生积极参与身临其境地学习英语。从而使课堂教学事半功倍。 三、外媒体课件必须已学生为中心。

教师必须根据学生培养方向，学生现有水平，学生的学习需要等等，进行软件设计和程序编制。 如：在听力训练方面：教师以培养学生的听、说、能力，由浅入深，由易到难，结合生活，注入趣味，也可配以画面和音乐。让学生身临其境地学习语音、语调，进行听、写、会活练习。 四、讲究教学方法： 多媒体介入课堂丰富了教学方法，它可使课堂讲解、演示、学习变得多姿多彩，从而极大提高学生的学习兴趣，课堂教学中的五个教学环节：复习、介绍、操作、练习及巩固。使得以顺利进行，大量地节约了时间，使学生能轻松自如地在语言情景中学习英语。比如第2册85课： Ⅰ、复习（Revision） 利用电脑绘制的彩色地图复习： 1）、Where1s……？ 2）、H1s near/behind/next to/…… Ⅱ、介绍（Presentation） 利用电脑绘制彩色“交通灯”教授“trafficlights”既直观又形象。 Ⅲ、操作（Drill） 彩用电脑制作的地图和动画片操练句型。“which is the way ……”

Unit1 奔向更加光明的未来 1 下午好！作为校长，我非常自豪地欢迎你们来到这所大学。你们所取得的成就是你们自己多年努力的结果，也是你们的父母和老师们多年努力的结果。在这所大学里，我们承诺将使你们学有所成。 2 在欢迎你们到来的这一刻，我想起自己高中毕业时的情景，还有妈妈为我和爸爸拍的合影。妈妈吩咐我们：“姿势自然点。”“等一等,”爸爸说，“把我递给他闹钟的情景拍下来。”在大学期间，那个闹钟每天早晨叫醒我。至今它还放在我办公室的桌子上。 3 让我来告诉你们,一些你们未必预料得到的事情。你们将会怀念以前的生活习惯，怀念父母曾经提醒你们要刻苦学习、取得佳绩。你们可能因为高中生活终于结束而喜极而泣，你们的父母也可能因为终于不用再给你们洗衣服而喜极而泣！但是要记住：未来是建立在过去扎实的基础上的。 4 对你们而言，接下来的四年将会是无与伦比的一段时光。在这里，你们拥有丰富的资源：有来自全国各地的有趣的学生，有学识渊博又充满爱心的老师，有综合性图书馆，有完备的运动设施，还有针对不同兴趣的学生社团——从文科社团到理科社团、到社区服务等等。你们将自由地探索、学习新科目。你们要学着习惯点灯熬油，学着结交充满魅力的人，学着去追求新的爱好。我想鼓励你们充分利用这一特殊的经历，并用你们的干劲和热情去收获这一机会所带来的丰硕成果。 5 有这么多课程可供选择，你可能会不知所措。你不可能选修所有的课程，但是要尽可能体验更多的课程！大学里有很多事情可做可学，每件事情都会为你提供不同视角来审视世界。如果我只能给你们一条选课建议的话，那就是：挑战自己！不要认为你早就了解自己对什么样的领域最感兴趣。选择一些你从未接触过的领域的课程。这样，你不仅会变得更加博学，而且更有可能发现一个你未曾想到的、能成就你未来的爱好。一个绝佳的例子就是时装设计师王薇薇，她最初学的是艺术史。随着时间的推移，王薇薇把艺术史研究和对时装的热爱结合起来，并将其转化为对设计的热情，从而使她成为全球闻名的设计师。 6 在大学里，一下子拥有这么多新鲜体验可能不会总是令人愉快的。在你的宿舍楼里，住在你隔壁寝室的同学可能会反复播放同一首歌，令你头痛欲裂！你可能喜欢早起，而你的室友却是个夜猫子！尽管如此，你和你的室友仍然可能成为最要好的朋友。如果有些新的经历让你感觉不那么舒心，不要担心。我保证快乐的经历会多于不快的经历。而且我保证几乎所有这些经历都会给你带来宝贵的经验教训，从而使你的生活更加丰富多彩。所以，带着热切的目光和欢乐的心情，勇敢向前去拥抱这些新的体验吧！ 7 我们相信，你们的自我发现之旅和对爱好的寻求带给你们的将不仅仅是个人的进步。我们相信，当你们成为我们的学者群体中的一员时，你们很快就会认识到，大学不仅提供大量自我充实的机会，同时也带来了责任。一位智者说过：“教育代代相传，它就是社会的灵魂。”你们是你们家庭辛勤劳动成果的传承者，也是无数前辈辛勤劳动成果的传承者。他们积累了知识，并把知识传递给你们，而这些知识正是你们取得成功所必需的。现在轮到你们了。你们会获取什么样的知识？你们会发现什么样的兴趣爱好？你们怎样做才能为你们的子孙后代创造一个强大昌盛的未来？ 8 我们很高兴能为你们人生旅途中这一重大阶段开启大门。我们很高兴你们将获得许多机会，也很高兴你们将作为社区、国家乃至世界的公民承担起应有的责任。欢迎你们！

The first is the 137-meter-high Great Pyramid of Giza, the largest of all the pyramids in Egypt. The second is the Great Sphinx of Giza, a sculpture with the body of a lion and the head of a man, which stands 20 meters tall and 73 meters long. The origin of the Great Sphinx of Giza goes back 5, 000 years. Although many sphinx sculptures have been found over the years, researchers believe that the Great Sphinx which guards the pyramids in Giza was actually the first one to be made (around 2600-2500 B. C.). The head of the Sphinx represents Khafre, the Pharaoh who ruled Egypt at that time. About two thousand years later, around 570 B. C., sand havd covered all but the head of the Great Sphinx. The people living in the area had forgotten the history of the statue, so they imagined that the head represented the sun god Ra and began worshiping it. The son of Pharaoh Amenhotep Ⅱ heard the head speak to him in a dream. The Sphinx’s head made him promise to clear the sand from the statue’s body. The son, Thutmose, kept his word and did what he was told in the dream. He also built walls around the statue to prevent the sand from covering it again. After all of the sand was cleared away, Thutmose made a large stone tablet that told the story of his dream. He placed this tablet between the town front feet of the Sphinx, where it stands to this day. For hundreds of years, the Sphinx attracted people both as a religious monument and as a work of art. But eventually, the desert sand once again covered the Sphinx, leaving only the head visible. It was not until the 1800s that archaeologists began clearing the sand from the statue and began researching the long history of the Sphinx. At last, in the 1920s, all of the sand was finally cleared

如何上好一堂高中英语阅读课

如何上好一堂高中英语阅读课 高金梅 内蒙古集宁一中 关键字英语阅读文化背景语法词汇技巧方法 摘要阅读教学就是培养学生有效地进行阅读，培养学生在短时间内获取更多的信息并对信息进行分析推理判断的能力，所以教师要进行有效地教学，让学生在了解文化背景知识，掌握一定的词汇语法知识，有一定的阅读技巧的基础上进行阅读，阅读的效果通过练习进行检测。 随着信息社会的出现，教育既要传播信息，又要培养学生摄取信息、处理信息的能力，而阅读教学的目的就是在于培养交际性阅读能力,有效地获取书面信息，并对此信息进行分析，推理和评价，以实现交际的目的。 阅读课在英语教学中占有重要的地位，它是提高英语教学质量的主要途径，在阅读教学中，教师应改变观念，以学生为主体、教师为主导，加强对学生阅读技能的训练，采用阅读前作有效的导入，阅读中要善于提出明确的目标，阅读后加强训练以巩固，同时还要培养学生的自学能力，切实提高学生的阅读水平。英语阅读在英语教学中无疑有着举足轻重的作用，阅读亦为英语学习输入的重要手段。因此，提高学生的阅读水平至关重要。那么，如何才能达到此目的呢？本人认为，应该从以下几方面着手： 1.了解文化背景知识。 在阅读前，如果我们对某方面的背景知识很了解，不仅可以提高阅读速度，而且可以提高我们对阅读时的信心和加深对文章的理解。有了背景知识，我们不必明白文章中的每一个单词就能理解文章。所以在平时教学中，有必要让学生查阅一些相关资料或者利用多媒体给学生演示一些相关的文化背景知识，这样可以扩宽学生的视野，提高学生阅读的兴趣。例如：十八世纪英国历史时有这样一个句子：“The last was the Battle of Waterlo o, won by the duke of Wellington over the great Napoleon, a victory so important and so complete that today, when we say that a man will …meet his Waterloo?, we mean he will encounter final disaster.”此句中提到了一位历史人物拿破仑（Napoleon）和一场著名的战役———滑铁卢战役（The Battle of Waterloo）。首先来了解一下拿破仑的身世，他在1804-1815 年间任法国皇帝，史称拿破仑一世。而滑铁卢是位于比利时首都布鲁塞尔以南20 公里处的小村。1815 年6 月，拿破仑一世与反法同盟联军在这里展开了最后的决战。结果，拿破仑败北，遭终生流放，这就是著名的滑铁卢之战。滑铁卢也因此而闻名于世，它几乎成了最终失败的代名词。该句中“meet his Waterloo”意指“最终遭受惨败”（尤指经过一段成功之后）。因此，当我们说一个人将“meet his Waterloo”时，指的就是他将遭受彻底的失败。又如对下列这段文字的理解：Tony Trivisonno came to America seeking the American Dream. But he didn?t find it-he created it for himself. All he had were 24 precious hours a day，and he wasted none of them. 这段话选自弗雷德里克·C·克罗弗德（Frederick C. Crawford）的短篇故事“Tony Trivisonno?s American Dream”。这段话是对托尼追寻美国梦的描述。从字面上看，我们只能理解到作者在描述一个勤奋的移民来美国努力工作，最终成功的故事。但如果我们结合“美国梦”及美国人生活特点这一社会文化背景，我们就会发现美国梦对不同的人有不同的意义。但对许多人尤其是对移民而言，它意味着改善自己生活的机会。了解了这一点，我们就会更好地理解这篇文章的潜在涵义。 2.注重词汇和语法知识。 阅读理解不是一项独立的英语技能，它与词汇、语法、文化背景知识等密切相关。因此，在平时的教学活动中，我们要重视学生的单词、语法知识和文化背景知识的积累。 (1)打好词汇基础。每一篇文章都是由词汇组成的，词汇的记忆和应用是阅读理解的第一步。高中学生应该具有3000多词汇量，这需要在平时让学生通过音标，构词法，同义词反义词
