11、stood in Chinese.七、阅读理解AThis brief book is aimed at high school students,but speaks to anyone learning at any stage of life.Its formal,serious style closely matches its content,a school-masterly book on schooling.The author,W.H.Armstrong,starts with the basics:reading and writing.In his opinion,read

12、ing doesnt just mean recognizing each word on the page;it means taking in the information,digesting it and incorporating it into oneself just as one digests a sandwich and makes it a part of himself.The goal is to bring the information back to life,not just to treat it as dead facts on paper from de

13、ad trees.Reading and writing cannot be completely separated from each other;in fact,the aim of reading is to express the information you have got from the text.Ive seen it again and again:someone who cant express an idea after reading a text is just as ineffective as someone who hasnt read it at all

14、.Only a third of the book remains after that discussion,which Armstrong devotes to specific tips for studying languages,math,science and history.He generally handles these topics thoroughly and equally,except for some weakness in the science and math sections and a bit too much passion (激情) regardin

15、g history.Well,he was a history teacherif conveyed only a tenth of his passion to his students,that was a hundred times more than my history teachers ever got across.To my disappointment,in this part of the book he ignores the arts.As a matter of fact,they demand all the concentration and study that

16、 math and science do,though the study differs slightly in kind.Although its commonly believed that the arts can only be naturally acquired,actually,learning the arts is no more natural than learning French or mathematics.My other comment is that the text aged.The first edition apparently dates to th

17、e 1960snone of the references(参考文献)seem newer than the late 1950s.As a result,the discussion misses the entire computer age.These are small points,though,and dont affect the main discussion.I recommend it to any student and any teacher,including the self-taught student.(一)阅读短文,选择最佳答案。1.According to

24、eat importance for students to be able to get a feel for the rhythm and sounds of a poemmore so than for most pieces of prose (散文).This isnt always easy in a second language,and so listening to their teacher read the poem,or to a professional recording,perhaps by the poet or by an actor,is,I feel,ne

25、cessary.As with any listening activity,students will need some kind of preparation and task so that they can be actively engaged.They might be asked to check predictions that arose from a warm-up discussion,to compare their suggested rhyming couplets with the poets,or to identify stressed words and

26、syllables.You might also want to get your students to listen to recorded or live discussions about poems.This can,for example,take the form of a couple of teachers or a group of students giving their views on a poem,or even an interview with the poet.Im a big fan of jigsaw listening because of the n

27、atural information gap.If your school has the facilities,you might like to:divide your students into two or even three groups,give each group a different cassette or CD and tasks to work on then they come back together to share what they have learned.Remember that your own enthusiasm is a key factor

28、 in any activity relating to literature in the classroom.Finally,dont forget to encourage art for arts sake.Listening for pleasure,to poetry (or to anything else,for that matter),is to be fostered at every opportunity,because of the obvious benefits which include motivation,vocabulary acquisition an

36、填空(2020全国卷)DecoratingwithPlants,FruitsandFlowersforChineseNewYearChinese New Year is a 1(celebrate) marking the end of the winter season and the beginning of spring.This is why decorating with plants,fruits and flowers 2(carry) special significance.They represent the earth 3(come) back to life and b

39、 9(beauty) long branches covered with pink-colored buds (蓓蕾) make fantastic decorations.The plum trees are 10 first to flower even as the snow is melting (融化).They represent the promise of spring and a renewal of life.答案与解析1.celebration考查名词。根据前面的不定冠词a可知,此处应用名词形式。2.carries考查动词时态。该句含有why引导的表语从句,从句的主语是

40、decorating,所以此处谓语应用第三人称单数形式。ing考查非谓语动词。设空处做动词represent的宾语,所以用动词-ing形式。4.than考查固定搭配。根据前面的more以及后面的asymbolofgoodfortuneandwealth可知,此处用than。morethan在此处意为“不仅仅是”。5.decorated考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,此处为“see+宾语+宾语补足语”结构,them与decorate之间是动宾关系,所以用动词-ed形式。6.Certainly考查副词。设空处位于句首,修饰整个句子,应该用副词形式。7.with考查介词。beassociatedw

41、ith是固定搭配,意为“与有关”。8.tocare考查非谓语动词。此处为“be+adj.+todo”结构,其中不定式做状语。9.beautiful考查形容词。由后面的longbranches可知,此处应用形容词修饰名词。10.the考查冠词。设空处修饰后面的序数词first,所以用定冠词,特指“第一个”。九、选词创境运用下列写作词汇,自己创设一个语境,形成一个小语段。(35句)novelist,in vain,violent,live up to,be bent on doing答案There was a famous novelist who wrote a novel about a scientist.The scientist wasbentonexploring a violent volcano.Unluckily,many times he was invain because of the terrible weather.The author organised the novel in many wonderful plots.It is said that the novel livesupto his reputation.
