A. transport B. challenge C. expression D. communication 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查名词辨析。句意:过去的四十年见证了从自行车王国到电动汽车市场的不同形式的交通工具。A. transport 交通工具;B. challenge挑战;C. expression表达,表情;D. communication交流。由于自行车和电动汽车都属于交通工具,所以这句话描写的是不同的交通工具。故选A。 2.Either the beautiful sights of this modern city or its local custom____ thousands of visitors during the past years. A. have attracted B. were attracting C. has attracted D. was attracting 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查现在完成时与主谓一致。句意:无论是这座现代化城市的美丽景色还是当地的风俗习惯在过去的这些年都已经吸引了成千上万的游客。由“during the past years”可知,这句话使用现在完成时。“either…or…”作主语时,谓语动词形式与or后主语保持一致,its local custom是第三人称单数,所以谓语动词也应使用第三人称单数形式。故选C。 【点睛】during the past+时间段, in the the past +时间段,in the recent +时间段都表示到现在为止的前一段时间,时态都用现在完成时。所以由本句话中的during the past years可知,这句话使用现在完成时。 3.More and more countries have come to realize that the world____ do without Huawei and its "more advanced" technology. A. can’t B. needn’t C. mustn’t D. shouldn't 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查情态动词。句意:越来越多的国家意识到世界上离不开华为和它更先进的科技。A. can’t不能;B. needn’t不需要;C. mustn’t一定不能;D. shouldn't不应该。can’t do without意为“离不开”,为固定搭配。故选A。 4.Sometimes people from the south have difficulty understanding______ people from the north say. A. which B. what C. that D. how 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查宾语从句。句意:有时候从南方来的人在理解北方人说的话时有困难。understanding后接的是一个宾语从句,且宾语从句缺宾语,所以选用连接词what。故选B。 【点睛】宾语从句连接词的选择办法: 1)当由陈述句充当宾语从句时,用that引导,that无词义,在口语或非正式文体中常省略。 2)当由一般疑问句充当宾语从句时,用if或whether引导,意为“是否”。 3)如果宾语从句原来是特殊疑问句,只需用原来的特殊疑问词引导。 例如本题中是用特殊疑问句(what do people from the north say)做宾语从句的,所以连接词选择what。 5.At one time French people banned borrowed words from English in order to keep their language pure and________. A. fluent B. various C. unique D. advanced 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查形容词辨析。句意:曾一时法国人禁止从英语中借用单词,以保持他们语言的纯净和独特性。A. fluent流利的;B. various各种各样的;C. unique独一无二的;D. advanced先进的,高级的。每个语言都有自己的独特性,所以法国人是要保持自己语言的纯净和独特性。故选C。 6.Scientists will produce plastic materials from beans, but right now the new product_____ in the lab. A. is being developed B. has been developed C. is developing D. has developed 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查现在进行时的被动语态。句意:科学家将用豆科植物来制作塑料,但是现在新的产品还正在实验室里被研制。由“right now(现在,此时此刻)”可知,这句话应使用现在进行时。主语the new product是表示物体的,所以语态应使用被动语态。所以整个句子使用现在进行时的被动语态。故选A。 7.The professor always spends the whole day in the bookshop_____ he bought the dictionary. A. on which B. to which C. in which D. for which 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意:这个教授经常花一整天的时间在他买字典的那个书店。这是一个定语从句,先行词为the bookshop,在从句中作地点状语,并且表达“在书店”应在the bookstore 前加介词in。从句部分完整的表述为he bought the dictionary in the bookshop. 将the bookshop替换为which,从句部分变为the bookshop in which he bought the dictionary或the bookshop which he bought the dictionary in。故选C。 【点睛】定语从句中介词的选择: 1、要根据关系副词来决定。 关系副词when, where, why可以用适当的介词+which 来替代。介词的位置非常灵活,有时放在关系代词之前,有时放在动词之后。如:when=in/on/at…+which, where=in/on/at…+which, why=for+which。 2、由词组本身的介词决定。 本题考查的属于第一种情况,the bookshop是买书的地点状语,应该用副词where,where=in which。故选C。 8.The small action of littering may______ disaster for small animals and their living environment.

She was one chapter in when she discovered it was holding a secret. Jost was sitting on the couch and the dog started barking at God-knows-what. She tossed(抛) the book down to ease after the dog and five dollars fell out on the floor. Surprised, she began turning page after page. That's when she noticed a bright pink note with a handwritten message. I was having a difficult day. I thought maybe I could brighten someone else’s with this little surprise. Go buy a coffee, an ice cream or a favorite CD. Practice some self-care today Remember that you are loved You are amazing. You are strong Love. Lisa Jost was greatly surprised. Random(随机的) acts of kindness used to happen to strangers on the Internet, not to her. A photo of the note Jost shared on Twitter (推特 )has been liked more than 3, 000 times and shared around the world. In this way, it encouraged people to perform their own random acts of kindness. Jost planned to do at least one kind thing every week. And she’s no one people continue to reach out to her via Twitter to share stories of their own acts of kindness. Afterwards, once a day for a week, she hid notes and Starbucks gift cards in coffee shops, restaurants, and libraries. She even inspired her dad to buy groceries for the person behind him in line at a Walmart. 34. Why did Jost turn the book page after page? A. She wanted to finish the book in time B. She was curious about her dogs bark. C. She thought there might be more secrets D. She decided to find the bright pink note. 35.

What would be the best title for the passage? A. A mysterious Lisa B. An unexpected note C. A warm-hearted act D. An interesting book 【答案】34. C 35. A 36. D 37. B 【解析】 【分析】 这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Jost偶然的一次机会在买回来的一本书中发现了一个纸条,上边写着激励的话语。她感到很惊奇。并在微博上分享这则消息鼓励大家多多传递这样的爱心。自此之后她自己也在生活中处处传递着这种惊喜和善意。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。由第二段中的“She tossed(抛) the book down to ease after the dog and five dollars fell out on the floor. Surprised, she began turning page after page”可知,她把书仍在地上想让狗停止叫却从书中掉出来五美元钱。所以她开始一页一页的翻。也就是说她继续翻书想看看有没有更多惊喜。故选C。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。由第四段中的“In this way, it encouraged people to perform their own random acts of kindness.”可知,通过发推特这种方式,这件事鼓励人们都去随机展露他们的善意。也就是说她想鼓励大家去展示友好。故选A。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。由倒数第二段最后一句可知,人们通过推特向她分享他们的善行,那么相应的Jost就会去读这些故事。故选项B正确。由倒数第二段中的“In this way, it encouraged people to perform their own random acts of kindness.”可知,她鼓励人们展示善行。故选项A正确。由最后一段中的“she hid notes and Starbucks gift cards in coffee shops, restaurants, and libraries”可知,它也会在图书馆藏纸条或者星巴克的礼卡。故选项C正确。选项D文中没有提到,故选D。 【37题详解】 主旨大意题。文章中的故事都是有一张不期而至的纸条引起的,并且文章中提倡大家多展示自己的善心也是需要通过纸条传递的。所以选项B(不期而至的纸条)即与引出文章中心的纸条呼应,又与文章倡导的善心呼应,符合文章中心。故选B。 【点睛】主旨大意题是篇章阅读一个主要的考察方式,标题题(best title)是其一个典型的考点,也是高考阅读中每年的必考题。主旨大意题解题技巧是不要被文章细节所干扰。一般有两种方式解题:一是看首尾段,根据首尾段内容总结主题思想;二是看每段段首句,根据所有段首句总结主题思想。本文中第四题就是此类的主旨大意题,由于这是一篇记叙文,我们就要抓住文章倡导的内容是什么我们这篇文章主要鼓励人们展露自己的善良,并且这个善良是需要通过传递纸条等形式传播的。所以An unexpected note与文章中心紧紧呼应。更具体的解题步骤参看详解。同学们要抓住记叙文标题题的这个总结技巧。 C Someday, umbrellas may do more than just keep people dry. A researcher in the Netherlands has designed a simple sensor(传感器) that “listens”to rain. And that sensor can turn an umbrella into a rain-measuring expert. Tools like this can let anyone gauge the weather. That can help scientists make sure that satellites and radar(雷达)systems that track storms are doing a good job. “Rain radar is a beautiful way of seeing where rainfall is up in the air. But you never know where it hits the ground, "says Rolf Hut. He designed the umbrella sensor. Researchers want to know how much rain makes it to the planets surface. Not all rain that falls from a cloud reaches the ground. And it can be difficult for radar and satellites to measure that rain, particularly in cities. A host of big buildings can change how air and rain move during a storm. “It also explains why a single, expensive sensor-the kind that might be found at an official weather station-won’t give accurate( 精确的 )city-wide data, Hut says. But by putting a low-cost rain measuring tool into people's hands, scientists can learn more about how much rainfall differs in these and other hard-to-measure places. On the inside of the umbrella is a small, yellow disk (磁盘). It is the rainfall sensor. The sensor is attached to a black Bluetooth headset that sends the collected data to a smartphone. Hut came up with the idea to stick the same type of sensor on an umbrella when he was talking to kids about science. He showed them a photo of a policeman who was holding an umbrella and talking to a crowd in a microphone. Why not put the two together? He thought it could make a cool rainfall sensor . When a storm came through, Hut compared the umbrella’s new“ear”for rain to official rain measuring equipment. And to his delight, he found the umbrella's measurements were“pretty good. ” His next step is to improve the umbrella sensor to be more accurate 38. The purpose of this passage is to_______ A. promote a unique umbrella B. inform us of a new invention C. make readers interested in science D. praise a researcher for his Invention 39. The underlined word“gauge”in Paragraph 2 most probably means______ A. change B. control C. measure D. sense 40. Why can it be hard for official weather stations to measure the rain in cities? A. Big buildings influence the move of air and rain B. They are lacking in weather measuring equipment C. Rainfall differs hugely depending on various areas D. Their collected data cannot be sent to smartphones 41. What do we know about Huts new invention? A. Hut is not satisfied with his new invention at all B. Hut's invention is something useful but expensive. C. He got the idea when talking to kids about science D. A policeman in the rain helped Hut with the invention 【答案】38. B 39. C 40. A 41. C 【解析】 分析】 这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个小发明,将能够“听”雨的传感器设计在伞上。全文介绍了它的优势以及工作原理。 【38题详解】 推理判断题。文章主要介绍了带有“听”雨的传感器的伞以及与天气预报相比它的优势。所以整篇文章的目的就是向我们介绍这个小发明。故选B。 【39题详解】 词义猜测题。由第一段中的“that sensor can turn an umbrella into a rain-measuring expert”可知,这个传感器能将伞变成一个测量雨的专家,也就是说这样的伞能帮助人们测量雨。A. change改变;B. control控制;C. measure测量;D. sense感知。故选C。 【40题详解】 细节理解题。由第四段中的“A host of big buildings can change how air and rain move during a storm.”可知,城市中,大片的高楼能够改变空气和雨的移动方向。这也就是为什么官方的天气预报难以精确地预测城市中的雨的原因。故选A。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的“Hut came up with the idea to stick the same type of sensor on an umbrella when he was talking to kids about science.”可知,Hut是在与一群小孩谈论科学的时候想出来把这样一个传感器绑在雨伞上的主意来的。故选C。 【点睛】猜测词义题在高考中有三种考查形式:生词猜测词义或熟词生义、猜测一句话的意思、指代关系猜词(代词或者名词)。从近三年考查形势看,三种考查方式同等重要。本文中第二题考查的是生词猜测词义。这种题目的解题技巧是在前后语句中寻找其同义词或释义句。同义词不限于词性相同,经常会出现意思相近,但是上下文中选用了不同词性来表达的情况。例如本题中的rain-measuring是一个形容词,gauge是一个动词,其实意思相同。同学们解题时要注意这一点。这道题具体的解题步骤参看详情。 D The weather was bad during the latter days of the voyage. A northwest wind was blowing all the time. The Rangoon sailed slowly. The captain thought that she would reach Hong Kong twenty hours behind time. Phileas Fogg stared at rough sea with his habitual calm. He never changed his expression for an instant, though a delay (延迟) of twenty hours, by making him too late for the Yokohama boat—Carnatic. But this man showed neither impatience nor anger, it seemed as if the storm were a part of his programme. Fix, a detective who had been searching for a bank robber (抢劫犯), viewed the state of things differently. The storm greatly pleased him. Each delay filled him with hope that Fogg had to spend some days in Hong Kong. The weather helped him. Though he felt sea-sick, his spirit was full of great happiness. Passepartout. Mr. Fogg’s servant, was angry beyond expression about the bad weather. Everything had gone so well till now! Did the bad things come? Passepartout was very worried about his master's bet. He wanted to know exactly how long the storm was going to last. The sailors advised him to refer to the barometer( 晴雨表). He shook it, but with no effect It seemed to have no desire to rise. On the 4th. the sea became calm. Passepartout cheered up! The sails were spread, and the Rangoon sailed at her full speed. The time lost could not, however, be gained again. Carnatic would, of course, be missed. At six o'clock on the morning of the 6th,the pilot went on board and guided the Rangoon through the channels to the port of Hong Kong. Passepartout still wanted to ask him if Carnatic had left for Yokohama; but he dared not. Mr. Fogg. however, did not hesitate to approach the pilot. “Do you know when a ship will leave for Yokohama?” “At high tide tomorrow morning, ”answered the pilot “What is the ship's name?” “The‘Carnatic’”. “Ought she not to have gone yesterday?” “Yes, sir, but one of her boilers(锅炉)needs repairing.” Mr Fogg looked calm as usual, but Passepartout held the pilot’s hand firmly, “Pilot, you are the best!” 42. Fix was greatly satisfied with the storm because______. A. the experience in the storm made him pleased mentally B. the delay provided him with more days to look into Fogg C. it wasn't likely that the bank robber got in touch with Fogg D. he was used to looking at things from different points of view 43. According to Paragraph4, a barometer________. A. fails to work in a storm B. rises with a sudden shake C. makes a storm last longer D. shows a change in the weather 44. Why could Phileas Fogg and his servant catch Carnatic finally? A. There was something wrong with a boiler of Carat B. The pilot had arranged for Carnatic to wait for them C. They took the storm and the delay into consideration. D. The weather turned fine and they arrived in advance. 45. When Passepartout spoke highly of him, the pilot was most likely to feel _____. A. happy B. anxious C. puzzled D. angry 【答案】42. B 43. D 44. A 45. C 【解析】 这是一篇小说节选片段。节选于《八十天环游地球》。文章描述了天气原因,轮船Rangoon前进缓慢。船上不同的人有不同的心情。Phileas Fogg很镇定,他的仆人Mr. Fogg却很心烦意乱,很着急。侦探Fix想到天气原因会让Phileas Fogg在香港多呆几天,有助于他破案却暗自开心。第四天天气好了,Mr. Fogg很着急的去询问船长去横滨的船次。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。由第三段中的“Each delay filled him with hope that Fog had to spend some days in Hong Kong. The weather helped him.”可知,每一次延迟都让Fix感到有希望让Fogg在香港多呆几天。这天气帮助了他。也就是说延迟能提供给他更多的时间来调查Fogg。故选B。 【43题详解】 推理判断题。根据barometer将答案定位在第四段内。由第四段中的“He wanted to know exactly how long the storm was going to last.”可知,由于Fogg的仆人想确切的知道暴风雨还将持续多久,所以船长让他去看晴雨表。可以推知晴雨表可以显示天气的变化。故选D。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。由文中的对话“Ought she not to have gone yesterday?”“Yes, sir, but one of her boilers(锅炉)needs repairing.”可知,Carnatic 本来是昨天要去横滨的,但是一个锅炉坏了需要修,所以推迟到了明天。故选A。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据故事情节,Mr. Fogg一直很担心天气的变化会影响到他们去横滨的船,最后得知船还没有离开,不会延误时特别激动。所以当他对船长说Pilot, you are the best!时船长肯定很疑惑,Carnatic是由于锅炉坏了没有离开,跟他有什么关系呢?A. happy高兴的;B. anxious担忧的;C. puzzled困惑的;D. angry生气的。故选C。 第四部分七选五(共5小题:每小题2分,满分10分) 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When and why did you start running? It was March 2017. My family had gone through a terrible experience. My nephew Peter had his arms and legs cut to save his life from the after-effects of meningitis(脑膜炎).___46___. I needed to get fit and healthy for my family, to become a role model for them. Peter inspires me to live life to the full: he doesn’t let his disability get in his way! What race result are you most pleased with? I'm proud of all the races I’ve done. I never thought I'd be able to call myself a runner. I now regularly race and love bringing home medals for my daughters to be inspired by.___47___! What's next? ___48___ .We started a campaign called Hope 4 Peter and support has been amazing: our local community helped raise ₤240k for prosthetic legs(假肢)and physiotherapy. We’ve had huge support from Meningitis Now and Time is Precious too, and I’ll be raising money for them, but also pushing Peter around the full course.___49___ . What does running mean to you? I’ve suffered with mental health problems and running gives me a clear head and removes negative (消极的)thoughts and stress.___50___. We should be so grateful for our bodies and what amazing things they can do! A. It was quite a shock to me B. The London Half Marathon C. That makes me keep running D. My favorite thing to do is run a marathon E. I love the freedom of it and I love the fact I can run F No child has ever taken part in the full half marathon G. I do love to have a cool chocolate, banana and apple pie after running 【答案】46. A 47. C 48. B 49. F 50. E 【解析】 【分析】 这是一篇记叙文。作者的侄儿Peter由于脑膜炎被截肢,这个事件以及Peter的精神使得作者决心变得健康成为全家人的榜样。于是他从自己擅长的长跑开始,带Peter一起长跑参加马拉松,筹集捐款,一边努力克服着困难,一边追求健康的生活。 【46题详解】 空格位于段中。空格前一句话句意为:我的侄儿Peter由于脑膜炎后遗症双手和双腿都被截肢了。选项A中的It可以用来指代这个事件,并且选项A中的me与下句中的I也是呼应关系。这样选项A就在上下句之间起到了承上启下的作用。故选A。 【47题详解】 空格位于段尾。空格位于第一个小标题下段落内,第一个小标题意思为:你最满意的比赛结果是什么呢?空格前一句话意思为:我现在常常跑步并且喜欢把奖牌带回家鼓舞女儿。选项C中的That可以指代这句话,且keep running与上句中的“regularly race”呼应。故选C。 【48题详解】 空格位于段首。由于空格所在段落标题为问句“下一步是什么呢?”,所以段首开始应该是一个答句。选项B(伦敦半程马拉松)可以作为答句,且与上段中的regularly race呼应,说明伦敦马拉松是下一次race的项目。故选B。 【49题详解】 空格位于段尾。空格上一句话意为:我们也得到了Meningitis和Time is Precious的大力支持,并且我将为它们筹钱,而且我推着Peter跑完了全程。选项F中的Child与Peter呼应,其中的the full half marathon与上一个空格处单词呼应。故选F。 【50题详解】 空格位于段中。空格上一句意为:我遭受过精神健康的问题,跑步让我头脑清醒,让我远离消极的情绪和压力。选项E中的the freedom of it与这句话中描述的跑步的好处相呼应,且it与running是指代关系。故选E。 【点睛】七选五题目主要考查学生综合的英语逻辑思维能力。一篇好的短文,不仅在内容上要前后一致,而且还要语篇结构清晰,上下文逻辑意义严谨。内容的前后一致体现在段内及语篇内话题的自然过渡。语篇结构主要体现为:文章是总分结构,还是按时间或空间顺序发展的,还是辩证三段论的编排的。逻辑意义的严谨最主要的可以通过代词、连词和副词等形式来体现。例如本题中的第三题是比较难的一个题目,同学们首先要分析标题问的是什么,与上一段之间的关系是什么?我们由上一段知道作者之前参加了很多跑步项目,那么第二个大标题问的就是下一个项目是什么?有了这个思路选择答案就容易一些了。第一题和第五题分别依据it的指代关系解题是比较容易的。第四题依据peter与child之间的呼应关系解题,第三题依据代词that的指代关系解题。具体分析步骤见详解,同学们把握住除了根据句意之外的这些解题思路,做题时才能更快更准。 第II卷(非选择题,共50分) 第五部分短文填空(共10小题:每小题15分,满分15分) 阅读下面短文,在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 As English learners, we have the alphabet clearly in our mind, in order, from a very young age. You can say the ABCs___51___rapid speed and some people can even say them backwards without ___52___(think)about it. We certainly can't imagine the alphabet being in any other order. but how did the order we know today come to be? There’s___53___(real) not an easy answer. No one woke up and decided to put the ___54___(letter )in that order, the alphabet ___55___(evolve)slowly over a long period of time to become ___56___it is today. Our alphabet can date back to ancient Egypt. This first alphabet ___57___(improve)by the Phoenicians around1000 BC,___58___(early)than the Greeks by 200 years, and we have them to thank for vowels (元音 ) From Greece, our alphabet traveled to Rome, and the Romans turned ___59___ into the“modern”alphabet, with letters we recognize today. So why that order? While we don’t know for sure. some scholars assumed that the order came from memory cells in our brains meant ___60___(help)people remember it-some kind of sentence where each letter became a full word, like the technique you used in school to remember the order of the planets. 【答案】51. at 52. thinking 53. really 54. letters 55. evolved 56. what 57. was improved 58. earlier 59. it 60. to help 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了大家很熟悉的26个英文字母的由来以及探究了为什么是现在这个顺序呢? 【51题详解】 考查介词。句意:你可以以很快的速度说ABCs,并且有些人还可以不假思索的将其倒背如流。空格位于名词短语前,和后边的名词短语一起做say的状语,所以空格处应填介词,与其后名词组成介词短语作状语。“以很快的速度”应使用介词at,故填at。 【52题详解】 考查动名词。句意同上。空格位于介词without后,括弧中给出的是动词think,所以应填动名词作宾语。故填thinking。 【53题详解】 考查副词。句意:真的没有一个简单的答案。空格处单词位于be动词后,修饰be动词或者整句话,应用副词形式。故填really。 【54题详解】 考查名词的复数形式。句意:没有一个人醒来就决定把这些字母按那个顺序排列,字母是经过长时期的演变才变成今天这个样子的。我们知道字母表有26个字母,所以空格处应填letter(字母)的复数形式。故填letters。 【55题详解】 考查一般过去时。句意同上。这句话将字母的演化过程,且由“over a long period of time”可知,这句话应使用一般过去时。故填evolved。 【56题详解】 考查宾语从句。句意同上。这是一个宾语从句,主句缺宾语,从句缺表语,所以应使用what做连接词。故填what。 【57题详解】 考查一般过去时的被动语态。句意:第一个字母表是由腓尼基人在公元前1000年左右改进过的,比希腊人还早200年。这句话第一个空格处的单词作句子的谓语,This first alphabet与improve之间是被动关系,所以谓语动词使用被动语态。This first alphabet为第三人称单数形式,所以谓语动词使用第三人称单数。又由around1000 BC可知,句子使用一般过去时。故填was improved。 【58题详解】 考查形容词比较级。句意同上。这句话将腓尼基人改进字母表的时间与希腊人对比,所以空格处应填形容词比较级,故填earlier。 【59题详解】 考查代词。句意:罗马人将它变成了现代的字母表,就是我们现在认识的这样。由and可知,and后是一个完整的句子,分析句子成份,句子缺少宾语。“turn sth. into…”意为“将……变成……”。根据句意,sth.应指代前边提到的the alphabet,故用it替代。故填it。 60题详解】 考查不定式作宾语。句意:一些学者认为人们记忆中的这个顺序意味着帮助人们记住它。“meant to do sth.”意为“意味着做某事”,故填to help。 第六部分 A 课文填空 Old French made other___61___to Middle English as well.

I’m excited to stand here to share the travel into the past and the future with my Time Machine. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Thank you! 【答案】 Boys and girls, good afternoon! I’m excited to stand here to share the travel into the past and the future with my Time Machine. Back to the past, I witnessed Alexander the Great king defeating cities and states, causing pain and death and the Loulan Kingdom, different from what you have seen now, was an ecological and livable state. What a terrible sight I saw in the distant future! I never dreamed, as human beings, the Morlocks should have killed and eaten the Eloi cruelly and greedily instead of living in harmony. When going further into the future, I found there was no life or movement on the Earth. What I have learnt from my travel is that mankind needs peace rather than war. And nature should be respected and protected. Thank you! 【解析】 【分析】 这是一篇演讲稿。内容要点罗列的很清晰,同学们只要就每个要点结合自己的历史知识恰当发挥即可。演讲稿文章组织结构要思维清晰,逻辑性强,语言要有感染力、形象生动。 【详解】第一步:审题 确定时态和人称。由于是你自己乘坐时空机器穿越到过去和未来之后又回到现在并且是你自己写一篇演讲稿,所以时态以句子情形而定,描写过去就用一般过去式,现在就用一般现在时,将来就用一般将来时。人称以第一人称为主。 第二步:列提纲 (重点词组) the travel into the past and the future(穿越到过去和将来的旅行);defeating cities and states(征服城市和国家);ecological and livable state(环境优美、生机勃勃的国家);living in harmony(和谐地生活);rather than(而不是);in the distant future (在遥远的将来);travel with(用……旅行)等。 第三步:遣词造句:同学们在写作时不能逐句翻译,可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯,同时要点表述要完整,文章要通顺,准确使用时态和语态。 第四步:连句成文:写作时要适当使用连词、过渡词和插入语,使文章浑然一体。同时恰当而合理地使用一些高级词汇和句型,如定语从句等,以提高文章档次。 【点睛】范文内容完整,要点全面,语言规范,语篇连贯,词数适当,上下文意思连贯,符合逻辑关系。作者在范文中使用了较多句式和高级词汇,如:第二段首句使用了现在分词做宾语补足语(witnessed Alexander the Great keep defeating cities and states),现在分词作状语(causing……)以及宾语从句(different from what you have seen now)。第二段第三句使用情态动词should have done表达了作者对过去发生的事情感到惊讶、惊奇、不相信的语气。第二段第四句使用了宾语从句。第三段这句话使用了主语从句和表语从句。全文中没有中国式英语的句式,显示了很高的驾驭英语的能力。另外,文章思路清晰、层次分明,上下句转换自然,为文章增色添彩。 查看更多
