许多同学参加英语考试,最头疼的就是作文。没有了汉英词典,又怎么也想不出该用什么词汇和句型。高考的时候就更是急煞人。其实,考场上就有现成的范文,而且不只一篇。你甚至可以光明正大地看这篇范文,而不会被当作作弊,因为这范文就是阅读理解里的文章。那这些特殊的范文又该怎么来用呢?下面我们将结合2005年全国卷II 的书面表达真题,一起从词汇、句型、语法、文章结构几个方面来“copy”真题。

附:2005年全国卷II 的书面表达真题假设你是李华,最近国内一家英文报纸正在讨论北京动物园是否应迁出市区。以下是你所在班级讨论的情况。请你给该报写一封信,反映讨论结果。

√ 赞成迁出1. 游客多,交通堵塞2. 郊区环境好× 反对迁出

1. 建于1906年,中外闻名2. 搬迁易造成动物死亡

(此题的详细评析可见孙利民载于本刊2006年1-2月合刊的《2005年高考英语“书面表达题”评析》)

◆ 词 汇

一篇文章的好坏,在很大程度上取决于词汇的丰富与否。表达是否多样往往决定着你的得分。大多数同学都苦于词汇贫乏、词不达意。比如:“增加/减少”这对概念,很多同学冥思苦想之后,仍不能脱离“increase / decrease”这两个词。其实,如果在阅读时用心积累就会发现,这样的表达俯拾皆是,尤其是在高考阅读的真题中。例如:thisfigure shoots up(2001年全国卷)/ a huge dropin the number(2002年春季卷)。再比如,很多同学在表达某种状态持续的时候,从来都是不假思索地写出“be still....”,但如果在阅读时多留心,就会发现有“remain”、“keep”这种看上去很简单,但却很“出彩”的词。类似的例子还很多,下面就试以连词和动词为例,看如何利用阅读理解的真题应战2005年的书面表达题。

连词

没有线,再好的珍珠也连不起来。很多同学的作文不够流畅,很大程度上就是因为缺少必要的连词。殊不知在阅读真题的语篇中充满了各种各样的连词,比如表示转折的:however、yet、though、unfortunately、instead of;表示因果的:as a result、 therefore、hence、thus;表示并列

Curriculum Extension

无忧升学?备战考试?的:together with、meanwhile、at the same time等等。

(该部分的扩展阅读可见朱葵载于本刊2006年3月号的《巧用“过渡”攻克写作》)

动词

动词是语言学习中的重点和难点。如何精确把握动词,写出“The Beijing Zoo, built in 1906,enjoys a history of 100 years.”这样优美的句子呢?看看下面的仿写就知道了。

1) 原句:A growing number of scientists areseriously thinking about it. (NMET 2001)

Careless methods of production and lackof consumer demand for environment friendlyproducts have contributed to the pollution problem.(NMET 2002)

仿写:A growing number of visitors to thezoo have contributed to the heavy traffic jams.

2) 原句:The relationship develops until thetwo partners cannot manage without each other.(NMET 1996)

仿写:The zoo itself develops until it cannotmanage without move.

◆ 句 型

俗话说,“文似看山不喜平”,句式的多样性能给自己带来一个有竞争力的分数。有一些固定的句式,如:it 引导的强调句、双重否定、插入结构等,可以用在许多陈述句上面。如果作文中错落有致地出现几个特殊句型,文章马上就会上一个档次,高分也就近在咫尺了。

It引导的强调句

It引导的强调句,强调一个句子中的主语、宾语和状语等多种成分。下面我们就结合出现在历年高考阅读真题中的强调句来造句:

1) 强调主语

原句:It is social conditions that make people

tell lies. (NMET 1998)

仿写:It is the zoo that should be moved outof the city.

2) 强调时间

原句:It was only after he had spent severalnights digging around the cross that he decided towrite to Kit Williams to find out if he was wastinghis time there. (NMET 2002)

仿写:It was in the year of 1906 that the zooopened.

3) 强调地点

原句:It was there that he made one of hismost famous discoveries. (NMET 2002)

仿写:It is at home and abroad that the zoo,built in 1906, is well-known.

(该部分的扩展阅读可见赵敏载于本刊2006年1-2月合刊的《强调在英语写作中的运用》)

双重否定

双重否定是一种“负负得正”的常见句型,以否定的形式加否定的词语来表示肯定,从而引起读者注意,增强表达效果,一起来看下面的句子。

1) 原句:John and Jim are not unusualpeople. (NMET 1998)

仿写:Moving to a better place is not an

unusual way of development.

2) 原句:Decision-thinking is not unlikepoker. (NMET 2000)

仿写:The Beijing Zoo is not unlike other

parks that could hardly stand the increasing num-ber of visitors.

3) 原句:It wasn't unusual to hear a man sayhe didn't know his friend's marriage was in seri-ous trouble. (NMET 2001)

改写:It wasn't unusual to hear a man

back from the zoo complain about the traffic jamson his way there.

平时不妨通过阅读积累这样的模版句,写作

无忧升学?备战考试?时直接套用就可达到锦上添花的效果。◆ 语 法

通过阅读掌握的语法是在具体语篇中的语法,是鲜活生动的语法,是可以有效借鉴到写作环节中的语法。如虚拟语气,一旦灵活运用到写作当中,就会起到非常好的表达效果。在2001年全国卷阅读理解真题的文章中,曾经有这样一句:If this state of affairs had lasted, Englishtoday would be close to German. 实质上无非说的是:“这种情况没有持续,今日的英语已经和德语相差很远了。”我们如果通过阅读掌握了这个句子背后的语言点——虚拟语气,不妨用于书面表达中,仿写如下:

1) If the zoo had originally been built outsideof the city, it would be far less famous.

如果当初动物园就建在城外的话,它也不会这么有名气了。

2) If the situation had lasted, the schoolwould be a less interesting place.

如果(减负之前的)情况持续的话,我们现在的学习生活也不会这么有趣。(可用于NMET2001)。

3) If Ah Fu had not saved her life, I wouldhave lost my little sister forever.如果不是阿福救了她,我就会失去我的妹妹。(可用于NMET 2002)

类似的例子还很多,只要同学们有意识地进行积累,就可以通过简单的例子来掌握复杂的语

法现象,并用到写作中来。

◆ 结 构

英语是一门对逻辑要求很严的语言,而逻辑在语言上的体现就是结构和顺序。例如平行结构是英语中很常见的一种结构套路,两根主线平行发展,就像俗语说的“花开两朵,各表一枝”。2001年高考全国卷阅读理解的E篇是一篇关于男女友谊的文章,大量使用了平行结构,其中有一段涉及到对比、对照的段落如下:

"In general," writes Rubin in her new book,"women's friendships with each other rest onshared emotions and support, but men's rela-tionships are marked by shared activities". Forthe most part, Rubin says, interactions be-tween men are emotionally controlled — agood fit with the social requirements of "manlybehavior."

如果我们加以模仿和改写,2005年的这篇书面表达就可以这样来写:

In general, the advantages of the move tothe suburb rest on a more agreeable environment,but the weak points are marked by probablyanimal death during the very project. For themost part, to keep the zoo still in its present

location is emotionally welcomed — a good fitwith the social requirements of "a zoo with a longhistory in our city."

套用经典教材New Concept English前言中的一句话“Nothing should be written before it hasbeen read”。在学习写作的初级阶段,仿写就好比书法中的描红,将会是一个行之有效的练习方法。因此,一定要在阅读,尤其是精读历年高考真题的过程中有意识地积累,多读、多写、多模仿。让这种方法不仅仅只是在考场上拿来应急的法宝,而更应是一种培养写作能力、让自己写作更出色的好办法!

阅读理解训练50篇(1) 1 Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer. Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell.But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger. For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person's health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hor- mones (荷尔蒙).They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etC.In general the person feels excited and ready to act. Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure. Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.” Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. They said that laughter is much healthier than anger. 1.“Damaging emotion” means t hat _________. A.the emotion is harmless B.the emotion is harmful C.the feeling is very strong D.the feeling is hard 2.What statement is right? A.Were you angry, you would be cancered (得癌症). B.Once you are angry, you must be cancered. C.Angry as you are often, you can't be cancered, D.Anger may cause you a cancer. 3.Expressing anger violently _________ repressing it according to some scientists. A.is just the same as B.is more harmful than C.is no better than D.is much better than 4.According to the author, you'd better _________. A.never be angry B.cool it down before you express it C.laugh and laugh when you get angry D.admit you are wrong when you are angry 二

高考英语阅读理解真题汇编及答案解析(十一)

高考英语阅读理解真题汇编及答案解析(11) 摘要:阅读理解题的“三步法”:1.略读。目的是了解短文的主旨大意和便于迅速掌握短文的语篇结构。2.查读。同学们要先通读题干,做到胸中有数;再将短文读第一遍,锁定某些特定信息进行快速阅读,迅速选出最佳答案;先易后难,先做细节题,后做推论题。3.重读短文重点。核查。同学们做题的关键是看清题目的要求,读准的关键是分清句子的结构和确认词性词义。 When Andrea Peterson landed her first teaching job,she faced the daunting task of creating a music program with almost no money for equipment or supplies in a climate where standards-based learning was the focus and music just provided a break for students and teachers. For her drive and creativity in overcoming those challenges,she’s been named national teacher of the year. Principal Waynes Kettler said he’s worked with many outstanding teachers in his22years as an educator,but Peterson is“just that one step above anybody I’ve ever worked with before.” Kettler and others at Monte Cristo Elementary School talk about the ways she has introduced the learning from other classrooms into her music program and her creativity in working around things such as the lack of money for new music. When students were reading S.E.Hinton’s novel The Outsiders in their regular classroom, Peterson helped them write a30-minute play with scenes from the book.Then they chose three Broadway tunes that focused no race,equality and social justice,the themes of the book.Peterson composed two other songs herself after classroom discussions about the play and the book. The honor means a lot to residents of Granite Foils.It’s inspiring to know that people from small towns own even win national honors. As national teacher of the year,Peterson will spend the next year outside the classroom, as a national and international spokeswoman for education. Not surprisingly,She is a big believe in the value of arts education.She said it’s essential for schools to offer classes such as art or music and physical education because for some kids one of those subjects is the only thing that motivates them to come back to school day after day. 65.The underlined word“daunting”in Paragraph1most probably means__________. A. discouraging B.interesting C.creative D.unbearable

高考英语阅读理解三篇

(A ) A coal-fire stove(炉灶)provided heating for Zhao Yaoqin's courtyard bungalow in a Beijing hutong all her life. This winter, however, the stove has disappeared from the 66-year-old's life, and an electric radiator takes its place beside her bed, a product of a government to use clean energy in the national capital. With the Olympics to be staged in Beijing next August, the city is determined to eliminate the use of coal within the Third Ring Road that circles the city before the Games. The project to replace the stoves with electric radiators has been part of the effort. When the city's four-month long heating season started on Thursday, coal-fired stoves, known as a big source of pollution in the big city, have disappeared from some 20,000 local households like Zhao's bungalow in the inner city "hutong" -- traditional alleyways(小巷) that date back centuries. "We used to boil water or bake bread on the stove," said Zhao, sounding sentimental(伤感) to the disappearance of the coal furnace from her life. Late in the 1990s, Beijing's air quality monitoring office found that the emissions(排放) of sulphur dioxide and carbon monoxide from the hutong areas have been higher than the city's average in winter, mainly because of the coal stoves. With the project to switch to clean energy for heating launched in 1999, the emission level of the two poisonous substances decreased by 42 percent and 44 percent, respectively, this year from 2001 levels. Zhao said the fee for electrical heat for the entire winter was usually around 2,400 yuan (US$323) per household. With the government's subsidy(补贴), however, she only needed to pay about 500 yuan, nearly the same price as that for coal. 1.Zhao Yaoqin’ example in the passage is to tell us that_______. A.people in Beijing using electric radiators to welcome the Olympics. B.people in Beijing are doing something to protect the environment. C.hutongs in Beijing have a long history. D.People pay more money to use electric radiators than before. 2. The underlined word eliminate probably means________ A. cut down. B. increase. C. get rid of. D. replace 3. We can infer from the passage that ______ A. Zhao Yaoqin has a strong and deep emotion with the use of coal-fire stove. B. The government will pay most of the fee. C. The air of Beijing has been badly polluted since 1990s. D. The people do not use coal eight months in one year. 4. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. The clean air is important when the Olympics Games is held in Beijing. B. The success of the Olympics Games depends on the clean air. C. The government spare no effort to make the environment better. D. The emission level of poisonous substances will be low in 2008.

高考英语阅读理解专项训练及答案及解析

高考英语阅读理解专项训练及答案及解析 一、高中英语阅读理解 1.阅读理解 Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is gaining global popularity. According to a government white paper, TCM has been introduced in 183 countries and regions around the world. Westerners' understanding of TCM, however, may be limited to acupuncture, cupping and massage(针灸,拔罐和按摩). For instance, the purple, injury-like marks left on U. S. swimmer Michael Phelps,back from cupping for the purpose of relaxing his muscles and reducing pain became the center of attention during the Rio Olympics in 2016. As a matter of fact, Chinese herbs play a more important role in getting rid of diseases and keeping the body in good condition in the TCM treatment system than physical treatment. It is therefore disheartening to know that while 103 World Health Organization member countries have given approval to the practice of acupuncture, not many recognize Chinese herbal medicine. TCM falls far behind Western medicine owing partly to the slow development of Chinese herbs. Herbs are made into pills, powder and soup, and the kind of herbs used, their quality and quantity, and the processing of the ingredients (原材料) jointly determine the effectiveness of the prescription. Compared with Western medicine, which has standardized drug production processes and treatment methods, TCM lacks standardization, with the chemical composition and functions of its medicines being unclear and their effects being unstable. Fortunately, standardization has improved in recent decades, with an increasing number of factories producing patented TCM drugs. Another factor that has prevented the development of TCM prescription drugs is the lack of creativity. While Western medicine-making companies come up with new products every year, TCM drug producers tend to make medicines according to prescriptions handed down from the past. Chinese chemist Tu Youyou's winning the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for her research into malaria (疟疾) treatment may drive creativity to some extent in China's TCM industry. However, the current state of affairs cannot be changed within a short time. (1)Why does the author mention the example of Michael Phelps? A. Because he was injured in his swimming. B. Because cupping is a kind of important TCM treatment. C. Because westerners know a little about TCM. D. Because westerners attach great importance to TCM. (2)Why don't some member countries of WHO recognize Chinese herbal medicine? A. Because Chinese herbs can get rid of diseases. B. Because they only approve the practice of acupuncture. C. Because Western medicine is more effective. D. Because medicine made out of Chinese herbs develops slowly. (3)Compared with Western medicine, what is the weak point of TCM in Paragraph 4? A. The methods of planting herbs. B. The effectiveness of prescription. C. Lacking in standardization. D. Its stable functions.

2019高考语文阅读理解训练题:植物的花香

2019高考语文阅读理解训练题:植物的花香 阅读下面的短文,完成12—17题。 (1)植物的花香有着很多作用。 (2)植物的花有香味是为了传宗接代。植物花朵为了引诱昆虫前来 授粉,不但表现各种艳丽夺目的色彩,还会散发各种迷人的花香。于 是引来蜂蝶竞相采蜜,正所谓“蜂争粉蕊蝶分香”。结果,花粉黏附 在昆虫的身上,随着昆虫的飞行迁移而四处落户安家了。 (3)香花内部有一个专门制造香味的“工厂”——油细胞,这个 “工厂”里的产品就是令人心醉的芳香油。这种芳香油除了散发香味,吸引昆虫传粉外,它的蒸气还能够减少花瓣中水分的蒸发,形成一层“保护衣”,使植物免受白天的强烈日晒和夜晚的寒气侵袭。 (4)植物的花的香味除了有益于自身的生长繁衍,绝大部分还有益 于人类。香气能刺激人的呼吸中枢,从而促动人体吸进氧气,排出二 氧化碳。因为大脑供氧充足,所以能使人保持较长时间旺盛的精力。 此外,香味信息能够深刻地留在人的记忆中,刺激嗅觉,使人的记忆 增强。 (5)利用花香来保健和防病,在我国有着悠久的历史。古代医圣华佗,曾用丁香等制成小巧玲珑的香囊,悬挂在室内,用以防治肺结核、吐泻等疾病。古代民间把金银花放入枕内,用来去头痛,降血压,同 时还有消炎止咳的作用。 (6)不同的花香,能引起人们的不同感受。如桂花的香味使人疲 劳顿消;菊花的香味使人思维清晰。不过,事情都是一分为二的。有 些花香也会给人带来副作用。如百合、兰花的浓香,会引起眩晕和瞬 时的迟钝。 12.给加点字注音。 繁衍瞬时

13.本文的说明内容是。 14.第(4)段说花香“有益于人类”是从哪两个方面说的?(每方面六个字以内) 答:① ② 15.第(4)段画线的句子在文中起的作用是。 16.植物的花香“绝大部分还有益于人类”中的“绝大部分”为什么不能删掉? 答: 17.第(5)段中列举了两个例子,目的是为了说明

高考英语阅读理解真题汇编(含答案)

高考英语阅读理解真题汇编(含答案) 一、高中英语阅读理解 1.阅读理解 Mexico sites on an island plateau (高原) surrounded by volcanic peaks, which makes air quality a constant concern for people who live there. In April, the country took a decisive step toward improving air quality by enacting a temporary ban on private and Federal vehicles in the city. The rule forbids people from driving in the city one day each week and one Saturday each month. Electric vehicles, government service vehicles, public transport options and school buses are not included in the ban. Mexico City isn't the first urban center to be involved in car-free living. But the ban is more than an awareness-raiser. It was enacted with the direct aim of solving air pollution. In March, the city sank into a deep brown haze of smog when the pollution levels passed the 200 mark. The city ordered some 1.1m of the area's 4.7m cars off the streets and also offered free bus and subway rides. Mexico City's temporary vehicle ban raises questions about the best ways to improve urban air quality. India, whose citizens breathe some of the world's dirtiest air, has tried a variety of solutions. Earlier this year, the Indian government started a 4% sales tax on new-car purchases. Beijing also has experience with cleaning the air. The city introduced alternate-day rules in advance of the 2008 Olympic Games, which produced good results. And then there is the London congestion (拥挤) charge, introduced in 2003. The charge has had a measurable effect on air quality. For now, Mexico City — named by the United Nations as the most polluted city on the planet in 1992 — can look forward to the start of the region's rainy season, when daily showers will help lo clean the air. (1)How did Mexico ban vehicles in the city? A. By banning private and Federal vehicles one day a week. B. By forbidding private and public vehicles every Saturday. C. By limiting the number of new cars. D. By prohibiting the vehicles except public ones.(2)What did the government of Mexico do when carrying out the ban on vehicles? A. Raised the number of public vehicles. B. Offered free bus and subway rides. C. Introduced more travel options. D. Encouraged citizens to leave the city. (3)What may contribute to improving the air quality in Mexico? A. Alternate-day rules. B. Tax rises. C. Congestion charge. D. The rainy season.(4)What's the best title for the passage? A. Mexico —an Island Plateau B. A Variety of Bans on Vehicles in Mexico C. Should Cities Be Car-free Zones D. How to Improve Air Quality 【答案】(1)A (2)B (3)D (4)C

高考英语阅读理解练习题及答案及解析

高考英语阅读理解练习题及答案及解析 一、高中英语阅读理解 1.阅读理解 I was born on the 17th of November 1828, in the village of Nam Ping, which is about four miles southwest of the Portuguese Colony (殖民地) of Macao, and is located on Pedro Island lying west of Macao, from which it is separated by a channel of half a mile wide. As early as 1834, an English lady, Mrs. Gutzlaff, wife of a missionary to China, came to Macao. Supported by the Ladies' Association in London for the promotion of female education in India and the East, she immediately took up the work of starting a girls' school for Chinese girls, which was soon followed by the opening of a boys' school. Mrs. Gutzlaff's comprador(买办) happened to come from my village and was actually my father's friend and neighbor. It was through him that my parents heard about Mrs. Gutzlaff's school and it was doubtlessly through his influence and means that my father got me admitted into the school. It has always been a mystery to me why my parents should put me into a foreign school, instead of a traditional Confucian school, where my big brother was placed. Most certainly such a step would have been more suitable for Chinese public opinion, taste, and the wants of the country, than to allow me to attend an English school. Moreover, a Chinese belief is the only avenue in China that leads to political promotion, influence, power and wealth. I can only guess that as foreign communication with China was just beginning to grow, my parents hoped that it might be worthwhile to put one of their sons to learning English. In this way he might become an interpreter and have a more advantageous position to enter the business and diplomatic world. I am wondering if that influenced my parents to put me into Mrs. Gutzlaff's School. As to what other sequences it has eventually brought about in my later life, they were entirely left in the hands of God. (1)How was the author admitted to Mrs. Gutzlaff's school? A. Through his father's friend's help. B. Through his own efforts to exams. C. Through his father's request. D. Through Mrs. Gutzlaff's influence. (2)Why did the author's parents put him into an English school? A. An English school was more influential. B. Foreign trade with China was developing fast. C. It met with Chinese public opinion. D. He could become a successful interpreter. (3)What did the author think of his parents' decision to put him into an English school? A. It was skeptical. B. It was mysterious. C. It was thoughtful. D. It was wonderful.【答案】(1)A (2)D (3)B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,小时候父亲送作者去英语学校而不是中文学校,并分析了具体原因。 (1)考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“Mrs. Gutzlaff's comprador(买办) happened to come from my village and was actually my father's friend and neighbor. It was through him that my parents heard about Mrs. Gutzlaff's school”可知,作者是通过父亲朋友的帮助进入到Mrs.
