In an English competition, you are required to write an article according to the picture below. Look at the picture carefully and write down how you understand it.

注意:

1、描述图片主要内容,谈谈你的理解及看法;

2、词数不少于120个;

3、文中不能出现考生的具体信息。

 

 

 

 

One possible version:

As we can see from the picture,two people,father and son,are talking to each other.The

boy, standing on the ground, is looking up at his father, slightly scared, while his father, seated high on a big Chinese character “fu”, meaning “father” , is shouting to his son.

Such a situation seems fairly common in our society. When talking to each other, father and son are not in equal positions. Fathers simply tell their sons what to do rather than listen patiently.Therefore, sons will have few chances to share their own ideas or open up to their fathers.They often look up to their fathers with respect, fearing that they might not live up to fathers’ expectations.

I hope our parents will listen to us more instead of just giving us orders.

【解析】

试题分析:根据提示可知这是画图式作文。那我们可以采取图画式作文的典型“三段式”写法----描写图画、分析图画和个人总结。在题目的要求中也不难察觉到,第一点要求“描述图片主要内容”就应是开头第一段写到的“提出话题”,开头段描写图画,就图写图,无需发挥任何的主观意见和言论。作者用一系列的伴随状语如standing on the ground,slightly scared等生动简洁地表达了图片内容。第二点要求“谈谈你的理解及看法”,也就是第二段“分析图画”要写的内容。最后写一段个人总结来结束全文。 注意在文章的表达中不要透露个人相关信息。

【亮点说明】

本篇范文结构清晰,是一篇典型的图画式作文。首先用两个句子描写图画内容,在两个句子中插入很多状语,同位语等,如standing on the ground,slightly scared, seated high on a big Chinese character “fu”,既展示了作者深厚的文字功底,又以达到来不遗漏图片信息的目的。在第二段中作者表达自己看法,使用了一系列短语如share their own ideas,look up to,live up to fathers’ expectations还有一些高级词汇如fairly,rather than,让人眼前一亮。虽然过渡词不多,但是句子之间联系紧密,结构紧凑。在最后一段作者用一句话表明自己的观点:I hope our parents will listen to us more instead of just giving us orders. 其中动名词的用法为文章增色不少。

What’s the greenest place in America? If you answered something like the warm sunlight of Santa Barbara, you’d be wrong. The greenest place in America has almost no sign of nature— the buildings outnumber the trees— and the air isn’t all that great. What it has is density(密度)and efficiency— the twin qualities that finally define green in the global warming time. Applying those standards,the greenest place in America is New York City— particularly,the overcrowded,overpriced island of Manhattan, which produces 30% less per-capita(人均)greenhouse gas than that of the nation.

It’s that density that makes Manhattan so green. Manhattan’s population density is 800 times the national average. Density comes with negatives,certainly— small living spaces,air pollution— but it also enables amazing efficiencies.Over 80% of Manhattanites travel to work by public transport, by bike or on foot— compared to an average of about 8% everywhere else in the country. Manhattan’s apartment buildings are far more energy-efficient than the houses in the suburbs.

What’s true of New York City is more or less true of other American urban areas, which explains why a growing part of the environmental movement now focuses on greening cities, hoping to attract more Americans back downtown. There’s an effort to make cities more sustainable(可持续的),by improving public transport,reducing air pollution and upgrading energy efficiency. But even more important, it is quite urgent to change decades of government policies that have been in favor of the suburbs,with disastrous consequences for energy,the environment and the climate.

That’s exactly the difficult point. For all the high efficiency and convenience and richness of living in a city,there are disadvantages too.New York,for example,has some of the highest childhood asthma(哮喘)rates in the U.S.

So it’s welcome news that New York has continued to push its P1aNYC scheme, a long-term program to make the city greener and more sustainable over the next decades. Recently it announced an update to the plan that includes phasing out heavy heating oils in New York City apartment buildings by 2030,to be replaced with cleaner natural gas.

1.Manhattan is considered as the greenest place in America because of its__________

A.rapidly promoting dealing with

B.widely suggesting researching on

C.gradually stopping using

D.immediately forbidding producing

5.What would be the best title for the passage?

A.Manhattan the Greenest Place in America?

The Couch Surfing network is an online community stretching across the globe with over one and a half million members. The basic concept is to provide a platform for travelers to contact people who are willing to put them up free of charge. Travelers connect with potential hosts online and, if they like each other, exchange details to make farther arrangements.

  Basil is one traveler from Switzerland who is currently couch surfing with a Chinese host in Beijing. "I thought staying in hostel is nice but you mostly meet foreigners and speak English. If you use Couch Surfing you have chance to meet people living here and really get a chance to know the life of the place you visit. " Basil was speaking during a regular meeting of Beijing network of Couch Surfing with a membership of almost 2,000.

  Although some people may have concerns about meeting complete strangers and giving them full access to your house, Beijing group member Fred Sharp from California says that the Couch Surfing community is one that generally attracts trustworthy people.

  "I have never had a problem with guests. I'd say that this Couch Surfing community worldwide is a fairly trustworthy community like I say, always be cautious, make sure that you read everyone's profile that you're considering hosting, and if it doesn't feel right just say' no', it's OK. "

  Originally launched in the US as a non-profit organization in 2004, Couch Surfing is growing fast across the world. China is no exception with around 30,000 members and hundreds more signing up each week. One of them is Beijing resident Hai Yan who joined in November 2009. She says the first time she hosted a guest was a very positive experience. "My first guest was from Italy. He was very kind and helpful. He bought me a present from Italy, a handbag. It's a famous brand!"

  As the organization grows from strength to strength, hotel owners across the world will be watching very closely and possibly thinking twice about raising their prices too high.

根据短文内容,从下面A~G选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。选项中有二项为多余项。

Culture Shock

Culture shock refers to the anxiety and feelings (of surprise, uncertainty, confusion, etc.) felt when people have to operate within a different and unknown cultural or social environment, such as a foreign country.

Generally speaking, we could say that there are four stages of culture shock. The first stage is called “the honeymoon”. In this stage, you are excited about living in a different place. 1.

The next stage is “the hostility(敌意)stage”. In this stage, you begin to notice not everything is as good as you originally thought it was. 2. Moreover, people don’t treat you like a guest anymore.

Then you come to the third stage called “recovery”. In this stage, you start to feel more positive. 3. The whole situation starts to become more favorable and you begin to learn to adapt yourself to it.

The last stage of culture shock is called “adjustment”. In this stage, you have reached a point where you actually feel good. 4. The things that originally made you feel uncomfortable or strange are now things that you understand. Now you have adjusted to the new culture and you feel comfortable.

Not all individuals visiting another country will experience all these four stages. 5. It also occurs within cultures as individuals move from place to place or from one setting to another (e.g., from high school to college).

A. You feel that friends should help each other to deal with culture shock.

Eating different colored foods can keep you healthy, as well as change your mood and behavior. Here is a list of colors, which can change your life.

Blue/Purple

     Blue is considered to be peaceful and calming and it has the same effect on our health. The blue / purple color in food is due primarily to their anthocyanins which are antioxidants (抗氧化剂) that are particularly heart healthy and may help support healthy blood pressure. Out of all the blue and purple foods available, blueberries are considered to have the highest antioxidant level. An analysis of the latest data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Study found that people who eat purple and blue fruits and vegetables are at a reduced risk for high blood pressure and are less likely to be overweight.

     A food and health expert says that blue and purple color foods can prevent blood mass formation, and they also lower the risk of cancer.

     Foods that contain blue and purple colors are: reddish eggplant (especially the skin), blueberries, blackberries, purple grapes, etc.

Green

     We all know that we should eat green as green symbolizes nature. The green foods are rich in isothiocyanates, which help resist cancer.

     Dr. Ashok Agarwal, a food and nutrition specialist, explains, "They are excellent sources of folic acid, vitamin K, as well as carotene (胡萝卜素). Diets high in those above are associated with lowered blood pressure."

     Foods that contain the green color are: broccoli, cabbage, cucumbers, etc.

Red

     Lycopene (番茄红素) in reddish fruits and vegetables is a powerful antioxidant that has been associated with a reduced risk of some cancers, and also provides protection against heart attacks.    

Dr. Smiths says, "Cooked tomato sauces are associated with greater health benefits as compared with the uncooked version as the heating process allows lycopene to be more easily absorbed by the body. Obtaining the most benefit from food depends on proper selection, storage and cooking of the produce."

     Foods that contain red color are: Tomatoes and tomato products, watermelon, guava, red onions, red chili, red apples, red grapes, cherries, etc.

Orange

     The orange foods are also rich in carotene, which are particularly good antioxidants. These foods are commonly considered eyesight foods because they contain vitamin A.

     "Orange fruits and vegetables also play a part in preventing cancer, particularly of the lungs and stomach. Foods that contain the color orange are: Carrots, mangoes, sweet potatoes, pumpkins, etc.

Harvard student Julie Zauzmer turned 20 on January 22, and her birthday couldn’t have been better: She got to working the overnight shift at the Harvard Square Homeless Shelter.

That might seem an extraordinary act of selflessness for someone turning 20. But there’s increasing evidence that commitment to community service is becoming much more ordinary to today’s young adults.

“Young adults are doing more volunteer service than in any point in history,’’ said Scott Seider, an assistant professor of education at Boston University who studies the civic development of young adults.

At Harvard, the Winthrop Street Homeless Shelter is one of 86 social service programs associated with the Phillips Brooks House Association, which is a student-run nonprofit organization. Students can work with deaf children, bring pets to nursing homes, and prepare Chinese students to become US citizens, and so on.

Volunteerism develops well outside of colleges, too. Applications to AmeriCorps have risen to a very high level, jumping from 91,399 in 2008 to 258,829 in 2010. City Year, which puts young people in high-poverty schools as tutors and mentors for at-risk students, has had a 140 percent increase in applications since its 2007-2008 service year. Citizen Schools, which uses volunteers to work with students in middle schools, has had a 28 percent jump in applicants between 2008 and 2009.

“Most of my friends know it’s their duty to give back before they settle down,’’ said Samantha Wolf, a 23-year-old Boston University graduate serving with City Year in a Mattapan school.

City Year corps member Antonio Gutierrez, 22, graduated last year from Union College in Schenectady, N.Y., and is applying for admission to law schools, but this year he is tutoring and mentoring students at the Blackstone Elementary School in the South End.

“I grew up in similar circumstances,’’ said Gutierrez, who said he was a weak student until enrichment programs changed his academic trajectory (轨迹). Raised by a single mother in low-income housing across the street from City Year’s South End Headquarters, he used to watch the red-jacketed corps members come and go, and decided to become one someday.

1.We learn from what Scott Seider says in Paragraph 3 that young people today .

A. study harder than before

B. do more volunteering than ever before

C. don’t care much about others

D. like to find jobs in their communities

2.What’s the goal of the program of City Year?

A. It helps to find jobs for college students.

B. It offers shelters to the homeless people.

C. It helps to build schools for poor students.

D. It engages young people to teach at high-poverty schools.

3.What do we know about Antonio Gutierrez?

A. He wants to give back as a volunteer.

B. He has always been an excellent student.

C. He never expected to become a volunteer.

D. He now works as a teacher.

4.What would be the best title for the text?

A. Volunteering spirit has disappeared

B. How to become a college student

C. College students learn to give back

D. The real life of young adults today

科目:高中英语 来源:2013-2014学年湖北省天门市毕业生四月调研测试英语试卷(解析版) 题型:阅读理解

As a professor I have grown accustomed to the opinion regarding American education. We are repeatedly told that American schools are failing, that colleges are not teaching, and that the students of today are not as good as the students of the past.

There are, of course, problems with the education system. Because of economic inequality some schools are significantly better than others and the ideas of equality of education and equality of opportunity are cruel jokes. However, the mere fact that there are some serious problems does not mean that all the dire claims are true.

One stock (陈腐的) claim is that America has fallen behind the world in education in terms of performance on various tests. While the fact that America is behind other countries is a point of concern, there are at least three points worth considering here. The first is the above-mentioned economic inequality which will tend to result in poorer performance when taking the average for America. The second is that many countries have put considerable effort into improving their education systems and hence it is worth considering that America’s decline is also due to the improvement of others. The third is the matter of the measures— do they, in fact, present an accurate picture of the situation? I am not claiming that the data is bad. I am merely raising a reasonable concern about how accurate our picture of education is at this time.

Another stock claim is that American students are doing badly on standardized tests. While there is clearly value in assessment, it is reasonable to consider whether or not such tests are a proper and adequate measure of education. It is also worth considering whether the puzzle with these tests is itself causing damage to education. That is, as teachers teach for the test and students learn for the test, it might be the case that what is being taught is not what should be taught and what is being learned is not what should be learned.

1.According to the professor, many people’s attitude towards American colleges is .

A. negative B. positive C. approving D. indifferent

2.What does the underlined word “dire” in the second paragraph mean?

A. Exact or precise. B. Extremely serious or terrible.

C. Fair or objective.D. Long and boring.

3.Judging by the text ,the claims are centered on .

A. what should be taught in the American classroom

B. fair judgment of American education

C. American students’ performance on tests

D. an accurate picture of American colleges

4.The passage is written mainly to .

A. defend American education

B. show dissatisfaction with American education

C. explain why American students do badly on tests

D. offer advice on American education reform
