B

San Francisco is where I grew up between the ages of two and ten and

where I lived for a period when I was about 13 and again as a married man from the ages of 37 to 51. My mother, who is now 90, still lives in Los Gatos, about 60 miles south of San Francisco. I settled in London over 25 years ago.

I was born in New York and I love the United States. I knew it well, having played in every town and, during the war, in every army camp. I have grown new roots in London as I did in France and if I am asked now where I want to live for ever, I would say London. But I will always remain an American citizen.

San Francisco, like London, has many parks. Every day my sisters and I were taken to play in the parks as children. I didn’t go to school. My whole formal education lasted three hours when I was five. I was sent to school but came home at noon on the first day and said I didn’t enjoy it, and I hadn’t learned anything. My parents decided, wisely I think, that school was not for me and I never went back.

My mother then took over my education and brought up my two sisters and me rather in the way of an English lady who had a good education. A lot of attention was paid to languages and reading rather than sciences and mathematics. Sometimes she taught us herself, but we also had other teachers and we were required to take lessons every day. About once a week we walked to Golden Gate Park and on our walks my mother taught me to read music. One day I noticed a little toy train in the window of a shop

and I remember now how I’d like to have it. I couldn’t’t roll my “r”when I was small and my mother, who was very strict with pronunciation, said if I could pronounce an “r”well. I’d have the toy train. I practised and one morning woke everybody up with my “r”s. I got the toy train. I usually get the things I want in life—but I work hard for them.

1. When the writer was twelve he was living in ______.

A. San Francisco

B. Los Gatos

C. London

D. a place unknown to the reader

2. During the war, the writer _______.

A. became an American soldier

B. had grown new roots in London

C. gave concerts for soldiers

D. left the United States

3. The writer did not attend school in America because _______.

A. his mother wanted him to go to school in England

B. his parents did not think formal education was proper for him

C. his mother wanted him to play outdoors in the parks

D. he couldn’t get on well with the other children

4. He had his education all home by_______.

A. his mother and other teachers

B. an English lady who had good education

C. his mother and two sisters

D. teachers of languages and sciences

5. The writer got the little toy train by______.

A. borrowing the money for it

B. learning to read music

C. succeeding in speaking properly

D. working hard at his lessons

高中英语学习方法”讲座

成纪讲坛“高中英语学习方法”之我见讲义 主讲人：樊达 各位同学，大家好 我今天下午就高中英语学习方法与大家进行交流。我主要讲以下三个方面的内容：1、如何做好初高中英语学习的衔接；2、关于高中英语学习方法的建议；3、高三学生如何进行英语复习和备考。 下面我先讲述第一个问题，即：如何做好初、高中英语学习的衔接。 学生从初中升入高中，刚开始会经历一些新的变化。 1、学习环境的变化。初中、高中绝大多数情况下是分开办学，高一新生大都初次离家在外读书，生活上不适应，大多独生子女在个性上追求独立人格，自尊需要特别强烈，很多住校生第一次过集体生活。在新的学习环境里会遇到不同教学风格的教师和不同个性的同学，会遇到不同的课堂氛围。初中学生在课堂上发言往往很积极，课堂气氛活跃；而到了高中，课堂气氛可能显得平静。初中教师往往重视导入和各环节的呈现，操练形式变化多样，善于运用实物、游戏和竞赛方式来调动学生的积极性，鼓励学生参与到语言实践中。高中教师由于教学内容繁多，会以自己为中心，自己讲得多，学生练得少，被提问的次数少，分组活动也相应减少，学生往往会处于被动接受的地位。 2、教材体系的变化。不同的学习阶段可能使用不同版本的教材，不同版本的教材就有不同的编者群体，不同的编者群体就有不同的编写风格。不同的编写风格就有不同的教学程序，这样就出现了词汇的不衔接、教材体系的不衔接等问题。 3、课程难度的变化。听力理解由浅层的信息获取转向深层的信息加工处理；词汇由常用生活词汇扩展到大量核心词汇及认知词汇；语法由零碎语法转向系统语法；阅读取材由纯语言材料转向高层次、多方位材料；写作由简洁的英语短文转向对作文结构的正确把握和高级句型的使用。 为了尽快适应高中学习，我想新高一学生应该做好以下几方面的转变。 1、情感态度的转变。 1）变被动为主动。从现实情况看、大部分初中学生的学习自主性较差，自学能力较弱。进入高中后，有些学生仍然沿用初中时的学习方式，教师说什么才做什么。而有的高中教师则认为，高中学生应该懂得自己读书学习，因而放松了对学生的严格要求和学习方法的指导，致使一些学生学习上无所适从。因此，高一学生在英语学习中要变被动为主动，要主动地预习、专心地听讲、认真地记笔记、独立地完成作业、及时地复习总结。 2）克服消极情绪，勇于迎接挑战。高一新生入学后思想上有不成熟认识。比如，有的学生认为, 初三一年太累了，到了高一，该歇一歇了，思想上有放松情绪；有的学生认为，初中时英语基础不是十分牢固，到了高中不仅内容增加了，而且难度加大了，英语肯定是学不好了，产生了畏难情绪。实际上，大家都进入了一个新的环境，都是新的起点，那么都应该追求新的进步，其实高中英语与初中英语都是阶段性的，初中英语的基础对高中英语学习的影响不是太大。高一年级虽然是起始年级，但却是整个高中阶段打基础的关键阶段，应全身心地投入学习。 3）积极适应新环境。首先要适应教师的授课风格。在大多数情况下，每个教师自己的语音、语调和讲课的习惯已经形成，不太容易改变。要学好英语，每个学生得努力尽快适应教师的授课风格，包括上课的模式、语言的节奏、动作手势、提问及处理课上问题的方式等等。再者要建立新型的、和谐的人际关系。要善于发现新环境中的好人好事，凡事尽量往积极处想。 2、搞好初、高中英语语言知识的衔接。在学习新课的过程中，学生难免会遇到语言、

怎样学好高中英语作文

怎样学好高中英语作文 要想在25满分的作文中的到17+的分数还是有高级句型和重要短语的使用的。一些英语上稍有欠缺的学生不要因为看到高级两字就望而却步。有些高级句式是可以背诵的，只要够勤奋背熟练了，再巧妙运用到作文中就可。以下便是巧用句式的例子 一般适合学生的通用句式有例如，句子开头：there is no doubt that;there is an undenying fact that;it can be said without exaggeration that……(可加The double ninth festival is one of the traditional festival in China)， 句子连接处：what is more,in addition,in the other hand…… 句子结尾：last but not least ,in a word,in short省略号， 当然如果能用倒装句，not only but also等句型也是极好的，前提是你不会写错。 1.结构就是你打算分几段写，每段都写什么?哪段转哪段承哪段起合?心里都要是有谱的。 2.关键词：结构拟定后，迅速在草稿纸上写下自己这篇作文可能用到的一些关键词。包括一些漂亮的词和自己可能会忘记的词。主要是动词和名词。 譬如一省作文题：假设你的名字是李华，亚洲冬季运动会将在你居住的地方举办，现招募志愿者。你希望成为志愿者。申请信的格式已经写好了，你直接写内容就可以。你的个人情况：年龄性别学历，个人条件。英语好，爱好体育，擅长交际，乐于助人。承诺提供最佳服务。 3.句式：词写下来了，其实你构建这篇作文的建筑材料就到位了，下步就是要把

高中信息技术基础教案全集

教科版高中信息技术基础教案全集(必修) 1.1信息及其特征 一、教学内容分析和设计： “信息及其特征”是教育科学出版社的高一《信息技术基础》第一章第一节的内容。由于这个内容理论性较强，如果只是由教师来讲，学生可能会觉得枯燥，所以我准备在教师的引导下，举出现象，让学生进行探讨，然后归纳获得知识。有不足之处由教师或学生来补充。这样能让学生积极参与，活跃课堂气氛，既让学生学到知识，又培养了学生将学习与生活联系的习惯和自主学习的习惯。 二、教学对象分析： 知识的获取者是刚刚升入高中的学生，按照人的成长认知规律，学生对知识的获取开始由感性认识提升到理性认识。对于“信息”这一事物的认识，可以让他们从大量存在的现象中，发现并归纳出他们应该获得的知识。老师在此过程中起着引导的作用。 三、教学目标： 1、知识、技能目标：学生能够列举学习与生活中的各种信息，感受信息的丰富多彩性；举例说明信息的一般特征；培养学生分析问题、解决问题的能力。 2、过程、方法目标：培养学生从日常生活、学习中发现或归纳出新知识的能力。 3、情感态度与价值观目标：让学生理解信息技术对日常生活和学习的重要作用，激发对信息技术强烈的求知欲，养成积极主动地学习和使用信息技术、参与信息活动的态度。 四、教学重点： 1、信息特征的认识。 五、教学难点： 信息的含义。 六、教学方法 本节概念性强，实践性弱。采用讲授法，讨论法。 教学过程 谈话引入：同学们，信息技术这门课程，我们在初中阶段就已经学习。那么下面请同学们说一说，什么是信息？在我们日常生活中，你认为哪些属于信息？（举例） 生1：校园里铃声响，可以告诉我们信息：上课或下课。 生2：观看校运会，可以获得很多运动会赛场上的信息。 生3：从网上可以获得很多信息，如：学习资料、娱乐、新闻报导等。

高中英语学习方法和答题技巧

高中英语学习方法与答题技巧 英语学习是一个长期积累的过程，要想学好的话需要一定的付出。最重要的是要随时留意你所接触到的比较常用的单词，用一个小笔记本记录下来。当然，这需要多阅读和练习，针对你的情况，可以制定一下学习计划： 1、每天早上坚持早起读英语，培养语感。有些人说早读英语对考试用处不大，我觉得这是很错误的说法，因为英语是一个语言学科，多读对提高英语的写作跟听力等各方面的能力都有很大帮助。而且，语言学习的最终目的是与人交流，所以要坚持早读。 2、用一个小记录本，每天记下5个左右的单词，这个贵在坚持，不要太多，关键是每天都得做。 3、记录下你所见到的比较好的句型，积累起来。这个不仅对你的单项填空有用，对写作的用处也非常大，因为考场作文不会给你太多的时间，你必须积累一些句子。 4、突破语法需要练习题目，最重要的不是多，而是要学会归纳总结。我建议你最好是能有一个本子，把你认为不太懂的写下来。最好不要标在练习书上，这里在记录在本子上的时候一定要注意一下，不要就题论题，一定要把这个题涉及的语法要点写上，便于拓展。起初你只有几道题，当你越积越多，你就会发现，有很多题你都似曾相识，那时就不错了。这个过程只要你坚持每天练，只需要不到连个月。 5、听力的突破当然离不开听了，你现在的情况应该大量的听课文，注意他的发音，而且最好是能跟着他读。其次就是适当的练题，积累考场经验。听力也需要坚持。 综上几点，你也许会发现，有很多地方都需要笔记本。的确，英语需要积累，需要你用笔记本去记录下你的总结成果，一定不要眼高手低，要持之以恒，我相信，只要你努力，英语提高肯定不是问题。 资料推荐: 《老友记》很经典的英语学习喜剧片 <走遍美国> 非常实用的口语 英语的学习方法是一样的，不分地区，虽然高考英语略有不同。想考到130分，实际就是知识细节的掌握。高中英语的知识量对比初中有很大的增加，在初中的时候如果学习不是很努力或者学习方法不是很得当，在成绩上体现得不是很明显，但是到了高中学习努力和方法得当缺一不可。给你提供一些学习方法改错本是比较不错的选择，如果你现在在用改错本，那你在错题的复习上可能存在问题，我不知道你是否在做题的时候，单选题，完形填空，和阅读理解是否用的时间相同，有很多学生对于单选题出现两极分化的做法。一种是人为单选在高考中占的分数比例不高，做的就比较少。另一种是做单选比较多，但并没有做到单选题的“四会”问题，只是选择答案即可，实际上单选题是阅读理解和完形填空的基础，你可以看看周围的同学，单选题打得好的，完形和阅读都不会有什么问题，怎样通过单选题来提高阅读和完形的能力，把我刚才说的“四会”做到即可。即知道选什么，知道为什么，单选单词都会，会翻译，你可能觉得如果这样做单选题会很浪费时间，觉得不值。如果这样想就错误了，很多学生做过很多单选题，但单选的正确率还是上不来，就是因为研究的不够全面也不够深，做到“四会”就没有问题了，还有很多学生阅读和完形也做了不少就是效果不大也是因为只顾了数量忽视了质量，但如果单选做到了“四会”，你的细节问题就会迎刃而解，但注意要及时复习改错本。到高考时改错本既是我们完整细节的帮手，又是复习的好工具。

最新牛津版英语高中必修一语法知识

第一讲定语从句 一关键词 定语从句：在复合句中修饰某一名词或代词的从句叫定语从句。一般紧跟在它所修饰的先行词之后。 先行词：定语从句所修饰的词叫先行词。 关系词：关系词用来引导定语从句。关系词有关系代词和关系副词之分。关系代词有that, which, who，whom，whose，as等；关系副词有when，where，why等。 关系词可以1) 代替先行词；2) 引导定语从句；3)在定语从句中担当一个成分。 例如：The car which my uncle had just bought was destroyed in the earthquake.句中，the car 为先行词；which是关系词引导是定语从句which my uncle had just bought，同时代替先行词the car在定语从句中作主语。 1.关系代词引导的定语从句 who指人，在定语从句中作主语。 whom指人，在定语从句中作宾语，常可省略。 which指物，在定语从句中做主语或宾语，做宾语时可省略。 that指人时，相当于who或whom；指物时，相当于which。在定语从句中作主语或宾语，作宾语时可省略。 whose 通常指人，有时也可指物，在定语从句中做定语。 Note: whose指物时，常用of which结构来代替： 关系代词在定语从句中作主语时，谓语动词要和先行词的性、数保持一致。 注意：which和as引导非限制性定语从句时，有时并没有特定的先行词，而是代表前面说的整个情况。这时which和as 被看作单数，译作“这一点”，其后的谓语动形式用单数形式。如：He said he was a Frenchman，which／as was not true. 但须注意，as引导的这种定语从句可置于主句之前，which引导的这种定语从句只置于主句之后。如：As is known to all，China is a socialist country. China is a socialist country, as/which is known to all. 2.关系副词引导的定语从句 when指时间，在定语从句中作时间状语。 where指地点，在定语从句中作地点状语。 why指原因，在定语从句中作原因状语。 注意：关系副词引导的定语从句经常可以用“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句来表示。 介词+关系代词 1)根据动词选择介词。I don't know the foreigner with whom my teacher shook hands.（或I don't know the foreigner whom my teacher shook hands with.) Note: who和that不能直接位于介词后作宾语；有的短语动词是不能拆开的，常见的这类短语有：look for，look after等。

高中英语课文

Maybe it is true that we don't know what we have got until we lose it, but it is also true that we don't know what we have been missing until it arrives. Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they will love you back, Don't expect love in return; but if it does not, be content it grew in yours. It takes an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Don't rely on one's appearance ; it can deceive. Don't rely on wealth; even that fades away. Rely on someone who makes you smile, because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them. Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do. May you have enough happiness to make you sweet enough trials to make you strong enough sorrow to keep you human, enough hope to make you happy. Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts others, too. The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. Happiness waits for those who cry, those who have been hurt, those who have searched, and those who have tried, for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives. The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past. You can't go on well in life until you let your past failures and heartaches go off. When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you are the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying。 也许这是真的，我们不知道我们拥有什么，直到我们失去它，但它也是真实的我们不知道什么我们已经失踪，直到它到达。给一个人你所有的爱是没有保证，他们会爱你回来，不要指望爱的回报；但如果它不这样做，是它的内容在你的成长。 喜欢一个人需要一小时，爱上一个人需要一天，但是忘记一个人却需要一辈子。不要相信人的外表；它可以欺骗。不依赖财富；甚至消失了。依赖能让你微笑的人，因为只有微笑才能使黑暗的日子变得光明。人生中有很多时刻，你非常想念某个人，你想把他们从您的梦想和拥抱他们。做你想做的梦；去你想去的地方；做你想做的人，因为你只有一次生命，一个机会去做所有你想做的事。愿你有足够的幸福让你甜蜜足够的考验使你坚强，足够的悲伤让你保持人性，足够的希望让你快乐。 总是把自己在别人的鞋。如果您认为它伤害了你，它可能伤害别人，太。最快乐的人不一定拥有最好的一切；他们只是让大部分事情顺其自然。幸福属于那些会哭泣的人，那些受过伤害的人，那些探索的人，以及那些尝试过的人，因为只有他们懂得珍惜自己的生活有影响的人。

(绝对实用)高中英语学习方法指导

高中英语学习方法指导（1） （绝对实用，强烈推荐） 高中英语的学习具有知识量增多、系统性完整、综合性完善和能力要求提高等特点，所以在高中英语学习中，大家要做到几个必须：必须循序渐进、必须勤学苦练、必须一丝不苟、必须持之以恒。此外也必须掌握一些正确的学习方法。就英语学科来说，在综合语言运用能力、语言技能、语言知识等方面，你们的英语学习必须再提高一个档次，才能适应高中英语的三年学习，也才能不败于三年后的高考。 17世纪法国数学家、哲学家和科学方法论者笛卡儿说：“最有价值的知识是关于方法的知识。”这说明了学习有方法，却无定法。学习方法要因人而异，因学科而异，正如医生用药，不能千人一方。所以同学们应从实际出发，根据自己的情况，发挥特长，摸索适合自己特点的有效的学习方法。 一、正确认识高中英语 1、英语是一门工具性的学科，不是知识性的学科。 2、英语是练会的不是学会的。也就是说不能仅满足于听懂，理解，更重要的是要反复听说读写练习。有时甚至不需要懂为什么，记住能用就行。在使用过程中，就会发现自己的语感有所提高。 3、学英语的目的是使用英语，只能在用中体会它的规律，掌握它的方法，通过练习来学会使用，因此我们要抓住每一个机会使用英语。如课程表的书写用英语，学习学科用英语书写等。课上50人，能有机会一定要抓住机会，而且给自己创造机会练习口语，课下要寻找机会去练习使用英语，练习听、说、读等能力，做适量的练习巩固课内知识。 4、关于语法知识的学习：掌握一定的语法知识是必要的，它是基础，中国人学外语要学点语法，但是过分地研究语法是不利于能力的培养的。这也是中国人学英语的误区。有人

说：那么高考怎么办？高考正是考查我们学生实际使用英语的能力，语法的考试也是在实际语境中考查，因此语篇的能力才是真正的能力。 5、语言的学习应听、说、读、写等全面发展，在开始阶段应以听说为主。高一新学期1~2月内主要以训练自己的听与说的能力为主要目标，逐步加大阅读。 6、语言的学习与任何知识的学习一样，以自学为主。要有一定的自学能力，外语学习不是老师教会的，是学生自己学会的。在使用中、练习中掌握规律，精讲多练功夫的过程，是长期坚持不懈的学习过程。 7、英语新课标下的英语学习的目的是要培养学生的自主学习能力、讲练结合、以练为主是外语教学的特点，仅仅靠老师是不够的。因此外语学习的过程是练和综合运用语言的能力，学习英语不仅仅是为了考试，还为今后的工作，甚至终身服务。 二、英语学习的六大原则 英语学习应遵循以下六大原则。这些原则都是"常识"性的。在学习英语的过程中，你按照常理去做，你就可能成功。你违背了常理，就不可能成功。当然，成功与否还取决于你的"努力"。 （一）简单原则 运用英语：简单－好、更简单－更好、最简单－最好 有些同学就借来原著，第一页看下来就有２０几个生词，阅读变得异常艰难和单调，体会不到有任何收获，读英语原著变成了查英语词典、记忆生词的过程，变成个苦差事。因此很少有人能坚持下去，原因何在？我想它违背了"循序渐进"的常理。所谓"循序渐进"就要求你从"简单"开始。学习、使用英语都要遵守简单原则。现在，书店里有好多套把原著简写成的"简易读物"，叫“书虫”。从简易读物开始读，读懂的感觉特别好。当一个人有了成就感时自信心就诞生了，并越来越强，也就产生了更大的兴趣。外国的英语文学作品仿佛带我们走进了一个不同的国家，一个不同的文化，一个不同的生活，结识了一些不同的朋友。在走入另样的文化、生活、人物、风俗的过程中就产生了一种强烈的神往，一种强烈的欲望。每时每刻都想读！ 只有从简单的开始，才容易入门，才容易产生"兴趣"，才容易把事情进行下去。英语阅读应遵守"简单原则"，听、说、写都应从最简单的开始，因为简单原则有巨大的优点： 1、造就成就感，培养自信。 2、增加兴趣。 3、语言朗朗上口。 4、易于学以致用。 比如从口语来说，人们并不是看一个人会说多么难的单词，关键在于看他能否熟练运用最简单的单词、句型、语法来表达情感、思想。英语国家人们日常生活的交流是通过有限数量的单词和简单的句型来完成的。

人教版高中英语选修7Units1-5 Reading文本

选修七 Unit 1 Living well Marty’s story Hi, my name is Marty Fielding and I guess you could say that I am “one in a million.”In other words, there are not many people like me. You see, I have a muscle disease which makes me very weak, so I can’t run or climb stairs as quickly as other people. In addition, sometimes I am very clumsy and drop things or bump into furniture. Unfortunately, the doctors don’t know how to make me better, but I am very outgoing and have learned to adapt to my disability. My motto is: live one day at a time. Until I was ten years old I was the same as everyone else. I used to climb trees, swim and play football. In fact, I used to dream about playing professional football and possibly representing my country in the World Cup. Then I started to get weaker and weaker, until I could only enjoy football from a bench at the stadium. In the end I went into hospital for medical tests. I stayed there for nearly three months. I think I had at least a billion tests, including one in which they cut out a piece of muscle from my leg and looked at it under a microscope. Even after all that, no one could give my disease a name and it is difficult to know what the future holds. One problem is that I don’t look any different from other people. So sometim es some children in my primary school would laugh, when I got out of breath after running a short way or had to stop and rest halfway up the stairs. Sometimes I was too weak to go to school so my education suffered. Every time I returned after an absence, I felt stupid because I was behind the others. My life is a lot easier at high school because my fellow students have accepted me. The few who can not see the real person inside my body do not make me annoyed, and I just ignore them. All in all I have a good life. I am happy to have found many things I can do, like writing and computer programming. My ambition is to work for a firm that develops computer software when I grow up. Last year I invented a computer football game and a big company has decided to buy from me. I have a very busy life with no time to sit around feeling sorry for myself. As well as going to movies and football matches with my friends, I spend a lot of time with my pets. I have two rabbits, a parrot, a tank full of fish and a tortoise. To look after my pets properly takes a lot of time but I find it worthwhile. I also have to do a lot of work, especially if I have been away for a while. In many ways my disability has helped me grow stronger psychologically and become more independent. I have to work hard to live a normal life but it has been worth it. If I had a chance to say one thing to healthy children, it would be this: having a disability does not mean your life is not satisfying. So don’t feel sorry for the disabled or make fun of them, and don’t ignore them either. Just accept them for who they are, and give them encouragement to live as rich and full a life as you do. Thank you for reading my story. Unit 2 Robots Larry Belmont worked for a company that made robots. Recently it had begun experimenting with a household robot. It was going to be tested out by Larry’s wife, Claire. Claire didn’t want the robot in her house, especially as her husband would be absent for three weeks, but Larry persuade her or allow her to be harmed. It would be a bonus. However, when she
