Different people have different hobbies. Hobbies are activities in which one participates for amusement. A hobbys can be anything, such as listening to music, playing various musical instruments, reading books, collecting stamps, going for sports and so on. It mainly depends on one’s interest and character.
There is no doubt that hobbies have a great influence on people’s life and society. Good hobbies can benefit people in many ways. They are both helpful to people’s growth and development, either physically or spiritually. On the other hand, bad hobbies are harmful to people. For example. Excessive drinking and smoking not only affect study and work but also hurt one’s mind and body.
Too many cars have created a lot of serious problems in our world. Besides congestion, accidents and fast consumption, cars are responsible for a good part of air pollution in big cities. All the time, they are pumping huge amounts of waste gases into the atmosphere. These gases are very harmful, causing disease and even death.
One possible solution is to design and develop clean cars and clean fuels. In Shanghai, some of the public buses begin to run on petrol. But it may take decades for the new models of clean cars to completely replace the traditional ones.
Another solution is to develop modern public transportation systems and restrict the use of private cars. If the price of petrol rises constantly and the public vehicles are efficient and convenient enough, most people will not buy private cars. And the total number of cars in big cities will reduce greatly.
On the whole, the elimination of air pollution needs the collective efforts from the government, the public and the environmentalists.
Many people have realized the importance of regular physical exercises. Physical exercises increase the blood circulation. It can strengthen our muscles and make our bodies strong. Physical exercises may prevent us from getting too fat and keep us healthy. Anyone who does not have a good health, can do nothing for his country.
Sports can promote international communication and understanding. It is believed that international sports may create goodwill between nations. If countries play together they will learn to live together. Understanding comes from contact. International sports give different nations a chance to get to know each other. In this way, different countries may have better understanding between each other.
Asked about which symbol can represent ones identity, the first answer occurring to most people, I believe, should be their names. Bingo! Every single person owns a particular name, which uniquely refers to this individual. Name is such an essential part of personal life that it is deliberately considered by parents or grandparents even before his/her birth. Moreover, the name will be with person for a whole life, widely used under any situation, such as filling in registration forms, or a topic of conversations, to name just a few.
However, some people hold different views regarding the necessity of names. They argue that name is no more than an arbitrary symbol. Also, they believe that the good wishes the names express to the person are merely imagination. In this sense, they dont think names are of any great importance.
As far as I am concerned, owning a name is good for the orderly organization of our society. Also, names indicate the long history and culture and express our good wishes for our life and future.
Friendship is the most precious thing in the world. No gold can buy I; no force can compel it. Everyone may have friendship no matter who he is, rich or poor, black or white, and male or female. Friendship is a warm hand when you are in trouble. Friendship is a happy song when you succeed.
True friendship is rare, and the only way to get to it is through our own efforts. Show our true love and care for others and always be faithful to our friends. We should remember a friend in need is a friend indeed. When we seek friendship, we should never care about someone’s power and money. Treasure the true friendship that has built because they are difficult to gain in life.
Being mature doesn't mean the person is adult. The age is not the standard to measure whether a person is mature or not. Some teenagers know their future duty and act in a mature way. The symbol of being mature is not decided by age, but the way they think.
成人并不意味着成熟。年龄并不是衡量一个人是否成熟的标准。一些青少年知道他们将来的责任,会表现得比较成熟。成熟的标志不是由年龄决定的,而是我们思考的方式。
Firstly, the mature person must have right attitude towards life. When he gets the unfair treatment, he won't be angry and give up on himself, instead, he can adjust himself and get used to the new environment. So, no matter what happens to him, nothing can frustrate him. He always finds his own way to appreciate the beauty of life.
首先,成熟的人一定会有正确的生活态度。当他遇到不公平待遇的时候,他不会生气,放弃自己,相反,他会自我调整,适应新环境。所以无论发生什么事都不会让他沮丧,他总是能够用自己的方式去欣赏生活美。
Secondly, the mature person must be knowledgable. As he experiences so much, he has broadened his vision. When other people ask him questions, he can give his own opinion and his profound thoughts will impress others. When we talk to the mature people, we will always learn something from them.
第二,成熟的人一定是知识渊博的'。由于阅历丰富,所以也开阔了视野。当别人问他问题时,他可以给出自己的见解,深远的想法会给他人留下深刻印象。我们跟成熟的人交流时总会从他们身上学到东西。
People like to communicate with mature minds, because it helps them to grow up. Everybody can be mature if they improve themselves all the time.
人们喜欢与成熟的人交流,因为这样能帮助他们成长。如果不断提升自我,每个人都可以变成熟。
Electronic mail, or E-mail for short, is a new way of communication by means of computers. Fast, cheap and convenient, E-mail is so popular that it has become an indispensable means of communication.
Millions of computers all over the world have been connected to form a global network, namely the Internet. You can send and receive by E-mail documents, letters and papers to anyone in other countries in no time. By using E-mail you can also store, , compile information. In a word, E-mail helps you overcome spatial and time limitations in communication.
With the rapidly growing popularity of computers and the expansion of information highway, E-mail is expected to play a more and more important role in our lives.
There are various kinds of jobs in the world, such as writing, nursing, teaching and engineering. Nevertheless, different people choose different jobs as their ideal careers. This happens mainly for the reason that everyone has his own interest.
As for me, I have made up my mind to be a teacher chiefly for three reasons. First of all, I want to teach because I like the pace of the academic calendar. Two long vacations offer an opportunity for reflection, research and writing. Secondly, I want to teach because I like the freedom to make my own mistakes, to learn my own lessons, and to stimulate myself and my students. Moreover, I have the opportunity to keep on learning. Finally, I want to teach because, being around the students who are beginning to grow and change in front of me, I will find myself growing and changing with them.
But teaching is no easy job at all. Therefore, I must study hard to acquire more knowledge. And, at the same time, I will make every effort to purify my soul so that I can become an architect of man’s soul.
Our dormitory has four members. Besides me, there are Old Zhao, Young Zhao and Lily. As college students, our experiences are similar, and right now, we are all students of Law School. But in terms of character, we are totally different from each other.
Old Zhao is our common sister. She is very kind and considerate. She takes full responsibility of our dormitory. If sorne of us catch a cold, she will take good care of her. Whenever we are in trouble, we turn to her.
Young Zhao is a quiet girl. If there is a chat among us, she is always the one who says little but listens attentively. She has the admirable ability to do well in all kinds of examinations. We all agree that she is the example that we should learn from in studies.
Lily is just the opposite of Young Zhao. She is very talkative. We enjoy her cornpany because she has the sense of humor, which rnakes her talk extremely interesting. Where there is Lily, there is laughter.
Such are my three roommates. In spite of our different characters, we get on well with each other. Our dormitory has become our common home.
Nowadays, social practice has been brought to great concern among colleges and universities increasingly. During summer or winter holiday, college students are encouraged and organized to participate in all kinds of social practice activities, such as part-time jobs, volunteering teaching and fieldwork.
如今,社会实践在高校中不断引起极大关注。在寒暑假期间,学校都鼓励或者组织学生参加各种社会实践活动,如兼职工作,支教和实习。
There is no doubt that students can benefit a lot from social practice activities. First, they are provided with more chances and opportunities to contact with our real society and broaden their horizon. Second, it is a good chance for them to apply their theory knowledge to practice and improve their ability. Third, students can enjoy the happiness of work and realize their value.
毫无疑问,学生可以从社会实践活动中受益很多。首先,他们有更多的机会和机遇与来接触我们的现实社会并拓宽视野。第二,那是让学生把理论运用于实践的并提升自我能力的一个好机会。第三,学生可以享受来自工作的快乐并实现自我价值。
However, there are also some things needed to be noticed in the process of taking part in social practice activities. For example, students should take care of themselves well and interchange labor and repose during the work. In addition, they should not ignore their studies when they are working.
然而,在参加社会实践活动的过程中有些事情也是需要注意的。例如,学生应该照顾好自己,处理好休息和工作的关系。再者,在工作的时候他们不应该把学习抛到脑后。
《Police and Communities>
Few institutions are more important to an urban netmunity than its police, yet there are few subjects historians know so little about. Most of the early academic interests developed among political scientists and sociologists, who usually examined their own contemporary problems with only a nod toward the past. Even the public seemed concerned only during crime waves, periods of blatant corruption, or after a particularly grisly episode. Party regulars and reformers generally viewed the institution from a political perspective; newspapers and magazines — the nineteenth century’s media — emphasized the vivid and spectacular.
Yet urban society has always vested a wide, indeed awesome, responsibility in its police. Not only were they to maintain order, prevent crime, and protect life and property, but historically they were also to fight fires, suppress vice, assist in health services, supervise elections, direct traffic, inspect buildings, and locate truants and runaways. In addition, it was assumed that the police were the special guardians of the citizens’liberties and the netmunity’s tranquility. Of course, the performance never matched expectations. The record contains some success, but mostly failure; some effective leadership, but largely official innetpetence and betrayal. The notion of a professional police force in America is a creation of the twentieth century; not until our own time have cities begun to take the steps necessary to produce modern departments.

New Year Party
On New Year's Eve,our clahad a party. The atmosphere was good. It was out of the ordinary from the very begining. The boy student from one bedroom gave an unusual performance. We saw a boy named Li Xinmin turn off all the lights in a sudden snap. Then with three resounding(响亮的) crow of a cock echoing in the hall,the hall was again brightly lit in a snap.
Then,the representative of the bedroom Zhu Guozhang asked us to guea line of a poem related to the above situation. He added that Li Xinmin alone was born in the year of the dog and the other three were all born in the year of the chicken. They left us all in confusion. And it was our monitor who was quickwitted(机智的). He shouted our, _The day breaks as the cock crows three times at dawn._ The hall After that,they had another item. This time Li Xinmin was placed in the middle of the circle. While he was standing there,the other three stood around him,each bowing down to him at an angle of 120 degrees. It was an idiom. This time I got it right:_The dog stands out among a group of chickens._
《Love Your Life》
However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it or call it hard names. It is not so bad as you are. It looks poorest when you are richest. The fault-finder will find faults even in paradise. Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poorhouse. The setting sun is reflected from the window of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man’s abode; the snow melts before its door as early in the spring. I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there, and have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace. The town’s poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any. Maybe they are simply great enough to receive without misgivings. Most think that they are above being supported by the town; but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselves by dishonest means, which should be more disreputable. Cultivate poverty like a garden herb, like sage. Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends. Turn to the old, turn to them. Things do not change; we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.
《My sweet home》
Most people has a sweet home,so have think my home is sweet because it is my best place to have rest or have fun with my friends or my parents.
I can remember I came back home late because my teacher didn't want me leave until
I finished my that time,the weather became
colder and the wind became was so hungry and cold at that time!I felt I can't take it any more,so I ran to my home I got my home,I felt much more warmer and happiness than ever before!
That's why I love my sweet home,Don't you think so ?
The environmental protection is the most major problem which in the modern life the humanity faces. must solve this problem must start from foundation. first, must massively propagandize, enhances people's consciousness with understanding, strengthens the environmental protection consciousness.

dear kate:
excuse me for my long delaying in returning to you your “robinson crusoe” which i read through with great interest. i had finished reading the book and was about to return it when my cousin came to see me. never having seen the book, she was so interested in it that i had to retain it longer. however, i hope that in view of the additional delight thus afforded by your book, you will overlook my negligence in not returning it sooner.
thanking you again for the loan.
sincerely yours,

Getting to Know the World outside the Campus It is necessary for college students to know the world outside the campus. This is because in this “Information Age” the society is developing so fast that we should keep pace with the progress of the outside world. Therefore, without knowledge of the outside world, it will be difficult for us to secure an ideal job after graduation; it will be more difficult for us to succeed in the near future.
How to know the outside world? First of all, we should be well informed about what is happening around us with the help of mass media: radios, televisions, newspapers, the Internet, and so on. Moreover, we should do more practical social services so as to cultivate our social skills, widen our eyesight and enrich our social experience.
As for me, I plan to know the outside world in two aspects: study first to have a good command of knowledge. At the same time, I intend to hold a temporary job to know more about the outside world.
Some students don’t like to study. They are more interested in doing other kind of practical work or relaxing and enjoying themselves. They say that it is no use learning the knowledge from textbooks when you won’t use this at all in your whole life. Even when you look for a job, they won’t pay much attention to your academic records. They put more emphasis on who you are, where you are from and whom you know.
In fact, it is very important for college students to study hard. Firstly, a college student without much knowledge wouldn’t be very useful to the society. What he can reward the society is very little. Secondly, he may hardly find a good job and live a respectable life on account of lack of knowledge. This is also a great loss to himself when he couldn’t find a place in the society. Finally, college students are young and energetic and a college provides the best place for them to grasp science and technology. If they can make full use of time, they are certain to learn something and improve themselves. Therefore, college students should realize the importance of learning and try to obtain as much knowledge as possible.
On New Year's Eve,our clahad a party. The atmosphere was good. It was out of the ordinary from the very begining. The boy student from one bedroom gave an unusual performance. We saw a boy named Li Xinmin turn off all the lights in a sudden snap. Then with three resounding(响亮的) crow of a cock echoing in the hall,the hall was again brightly lit in a snap.

With the development of technology, more and more electric books are used by people; in the meantime, many people still read traditional books. I think both of them have their own advantages and disadvantages.
Electric books and traditional books can be very different from each other. Electric books are light to carry, and they are so divers that you can read them on your mobile phone, MP4. To the contrary, the quality of traditional books can be well guaranteed. Moreover, most of electric books are network novel, and most of traditional books are professional books. Many people enjoy reading traditional book. Finally, if you read the electric book too long, you will feel dizzy with agitation. So reading the traditional books can make you healthy.
However, they have one thing in common that is they provide us knowledge. I think they will develop better in the future to make up their disadvantages.
随着科技的发展,越来越多的人使用电子书;与此同时,很多人仍然在看传统书籍。我觉得两者都有优点和缺点。
然而,他们有一个共同点,那就是他们为我们提供知识。我觉得他们未来会发展得更好来弥补其缺点。
When times become difficult (and you know they sometimes will), remember a moment in your life that was filled with joy and happiness.
Remember how it made you feel, and you will have the strength you need to get through any trial.
When life throws you one more obstacle than you think you can handle, remember something you achieved through perseverance and by struggling to the end.
In doing so, you'll find you have the ability to overcome each obstacle brought your way.
When you find yourself drained and depleted of energy, remember to find a place of sanctuary and rest.
Take the neccessary time in your own life to dream your dreams and renew your energy, so you'll be ready to face each new day.
When you feel tension building, find something fun to do. You'll find that the stress you feel will dissipate and your thoughts will become clearer.
When you're faced with so many negative and draining situations, realize how minuscule problems will seem when you view your life as a whole--and remember the positive things.
The tape recorder is one of the most welcome and popular electronic devices ever every family has a tape recorder. because it can record and replay people's voice or popular songs that people would like to listen to more than once,it has been warmly welcome since the day it was invented.
This device is useful in many ways. for eample,if a journalist has a recorder, he may record what the spokesman says, saving a lot of his a student has a recorder,he can use it to improve his listening can also record his own voice to practice his spoken all,the tape recorder can be used widely in our work,study and everyday life.
However,it can also become a it is played in too loud a voice,a recorder will not only cause damage to the listeners hearing but also disturb the work and study of , everything has its advantages and when used properly,will it make our life happier and more meaningful.
work and play are two important parts in people's life, but some times they are contradictory, whether we can balance them has much to do with our success.
some people think that we should do more work, because everyone has a limited life, and we should make as many contributions as we can to society. besides, we can acquire more knowledge and gain more eperience by hard work, which will help us a lot later in our life.
others believe that we should spare enough time for play. there is a saying that all work and no play makes john a dull boy. play makes people feel relaed and free them from the stress of work.
in this sense, it is also beneficial to our health. so if we don't play, we can't work well. in my opinion, we should do more work when we are young be cause we are energetic, and we can spend more time playing and enjoying our life when we become aged. of course, we should never overdo things and never indulge ourselves with play.
Nowadays a growing number of people, especiallythe 20s or 30s, tend to stay indoors for most of their spare time, especially on holidays. Somespend the majority of the time online chatting, blogging, shopping, dating or playing computergames. Some sit with their eyes glued to the television screen, day and night.
People's opinions vary when it comes to this way of killing time. A great number of people maintain that staying indoors is cheap, comfortable, and most importantly, very safe. Others,however, frown upon staying indoors for too long. They are worried that lack of physical exercise and face-to-face communication with others will do harm to people's body and mind.
Personally, I don't think staying indoors for most of the day should be advocated. Instead,people in all ages, their physical conditions permitting, should be encouraged to spend more time outdoors. The brilliant sunshine, the pleasant green space, the interactions with other people, etc. are all good for people's health, both physically and psychologically.
Being mature doesn't mean the person is adult. The age is not the standard to measure whether a person is mature or not. Some teenagers know their future duty and act in a mature way. The symbol of being mature is not decided by age, but the way they think.
成人并不意味着成熟。年龄并不是衡量一个人是否成熟的标准。一些青少年知道他们将来的责任,会表现得比较成熟。成熟的标志不是由年龄决定的,而是我们思考的方式。
Firstly, the mature person must have right attitude towards life. When he gets the unfair treatment, he won't be angry and give up on himself, instead, he can adjust himself and get used to the new environment. So, no matter what happens to him, nothing can frustrate him. He always finds his own way to appreciate the beauty of life.
首先,成熟的人一定会有正确的生活态度。当他遇到不公平待遇的时候,他不会生气,放弃自己,相反,他会自我调整,适应新环境。所以无论发生什么事都不会让他沮丧,他总是能够用自己的方式去欣赏生活美。
Secondly, the mature person must be knowledgable. As he experiences so much, he has broadened his vision. When other people ask him questions, he can give his own opinion and his profound thoughts will impress others. When we talk to the mature people, we will always learn something from them.
第二,成熟的人一定是知识渊博的。由于阅历丰富,所以也开阔了视野。当别人问他问题时,他可以给出自己的见解,深远的想法会给他人留下深刻印象。我们跟成熟的人交流时总会从他们身上学到东西。
People like to communicate with mature minds, because it helps them to grow up. Everybody can be mature if they improve themselves all the time.
人们喜欢与成熟的人交流,因为这样能帮助他们成长。如果不断提升自我,每个人都可以变成熟。

In modern society, the problem of heavy traffic has aroused a wide concern. Concerning with this problem, different people hold different opinions. As far as I am concerned, to solve this problem, we need to begin with the following steps.
First, limiting the number of private cars is a significant step to solve the problem of heavy traffic. Private car occupies a larger space and it is responsible for traffic jam to a large extent. Less private cars will accelerate the flow of traffic. Second, it is also a good means to open up the special roads for buses. By doing this, the phenomenon that the buses block the street when passengers get on or get off the buses will not occur again. At the same time, it will upgrade the efficiency of buses. Finally, reinforcing punish toward the over-speed cars and drunk driving so as to reduce the rate of traffic accident, and then decrease traffic jam.
To put it in a nutshell, only we put the above advice into practice together can we solve the problem of heavy traffic.
在现代社会,交通拥挤的问题已经引起了广泛的关注。关于这个问题,不同的人有不同的观点。我觉得要解决这个问题我们需要从以下步骤开始。
首先,限制私家车的数量是解决交通拥挤问题的重要一步。私家车占据了较大的空间,在很大程度上它要对交通堵塞负责。私家车会加快运输量。第二,为公共汽车建立特殊道路也是一个好方法。这样的话,乘客从公共汽车上下车阻碍了马路的现象不会再发生。同时,也会提升公交车的效率。最后,加强惩罚超速和酒后驾驶的汽车来降低交通事故的发生率,并减轻交通堵塞。
简而言之,我们只有把以上建议一起付诸实践我们才能解决交通拥挤的问题。

如今,社会实践在高校中不断引起极大关注。在寒暑假期间,学校都鼓励或者组织学生参加各种社会实践活动,如兼职工作,支教和实习。
There is no doubt that students can benefit a lot from social practice activities. First, they are provided with more chances and opportunities to contact with our real society and broaden their horizon. Second, it is a good chance for them to apply their theory knowledge to practice and improve their ability. Third, students can enjoy the happiness of work and realize their value.
毫无疑问,学生可以从社会实践活动中受益很多。首先,他们有更多的机会和机遇与来接触我们的现实社会并拓宽视野。第二,那是让学生把理论运用于实践的并提升自我能力的一个好机会。第三,学生可以享受来自工作的快乐并实现自我价值。
However, there are also some things needed to be noticed in the process of taking part in social practice activities. For example, students should take care of themselves well and interchange labor and repose during the work. In addition, they should not ignore their studies when they are working.
然而,在参加社会实践活动的过程中有些事情也是需要注意的。例如,学生应该照顾好自己,处理好休息和工作的关系。再者,在工作的时候他们不应该把学习抛到脑后。

Another solution is to develop modern public transportation systems and restrict the use of private cars. If the price of petrol rises constantly and the public vehicles are efficient and convenient enough, most people will not buy private cars. And the total number of cars in big cities will reduce greatly.
On the whole, the elimination of air pollution needs the collective efforts from the government, the public and the environmentalists.

karaoke
karaoke is a welcome and popular source of entertainment. people all over the world are familiar with it. it enjoys popularity in get together (聚会) and evening gala(联欢晚会). common folks (平民百姓) can simply sit in the living room and sing songs that best suit their tastes. thus it enriches people's lives in a simple but creative way.
being an inepensive and convenient source of entertainment, karaoke is of various functions. firstly, it enlarges our social circle and strengthens our bond (纽带). secondly, karaoke can remove the ban of social walls between people. thirdly, it helps channel enthusiasm (热爱) into enjoyable and instructive pastimes (消遣). the list does not stop here.
however, it can also be a nuisance. for instance, some fans sing loudly late at night, which disturbs others. for another instance, some suffer from a sore throat from ecessive practice. karaoke, in the final analysis, should be for the overall improvement of social civilization. its enduring appeal should lie in the high quality of entertainment, not noise pollution.
Punctuality means observing regular or appointed man who gets up at six o'clock every morning is man who promises to call on a friend at five o'clock in the afternoon and actually does so at that hour is also punctual.
The unpunctual man,on the other hand,never does what he has to do at the proper is always complaining that he finds no time to answer letters,to return calls, or to keep appointments promptly.

1.单词是基础
大家一定有过这样的经历,在一篇阅读文章中,如果生词太多就根本无法阅读下去,所以说,在备考的过程中,如不先具备一定的单词量,就很难将备考进行下去,很多人觉得单词应靠平时积累、并不赞同这种考前突击背单词的方式,但我认为平时的积累固然重要,然而为了通过考试买一本词汇书(书上一定要有记忆方法)是很有必要的。单词量大的同学有空时翻一翻查漏补缺就行,基础相对薄弱的同学就应抽出一定的时间专门背单词。
当然,单词的记忆方法也是有讲究的。首先是时间问题。建议大家抽一个没人打扰的长假进行自己的背单词计划。我是用了一个星期每天八小时把单词背完的,之后去做阅读理解发现了巨多刚背的单词,自信心顿时倍涨(每天背完后做几篇阅读,这个方法也很推荐,可以支持你把背单词计划进行下去)。大家不要一开始有畏难情绪觉得,啊?这怎么行?我五一十一还要去干嘛干嘛的,每天背这么久会不会头昏脑胀眼花之类的,其实一旦下定决心并认真执行起来感觉还是相当幸福的,尤其是背了一两个小时后就会渐入佳境、效率倍增。
背完之后想到大放假的别人都在玩而我一个人在这里学习还背了这么多单词,就会有一种小邪恶的暗爽之感油然而生。当然要是你接受不了这种方法而愿意每天背半小时坚持半年之类的也未尝不可,前提是一定要坚持,反正我以前也试过这种所谓的细水长流法,流了两三天后因为要开会作业多之类的事情耽搁了,细水也就此中断再没流起来。
然后是分清重点非重点分配问题,简单的说就是核心单词重点单词以及真题里的高频词一定要重点记忆,读音拼写意义用法都要掌握,多花点时间也没关系;而那些识记层面的单词能对其有印象记得意思即可,不要在“鸟嘌呤”之类的单词上耗费过多的时间和精力。最后是抗遗忘问题。相信这是大家最为头疼的问题之一。确实,记忆力再好、当时的印象再深刻,如果事后不时常和这个单词见个面打打招呼,在时间无情的冲蚀下也终有遗忘的一天。因此,我们要摆正心态,不要因为遗忘而自责,并且要认识到这并不是我们记忆里不够好只是见的次数不够多。而拒绝遗忘的方法只有一个,那就是时常复习。强烈建议大家找一个能揣在兜里的小本,抄上久攻不下的单词,没事儿拿出来看看,很管用,
至于具体的词根词缀法、谐音法之类的记忆法,由于词汇书上都很详尽,在这里就不多说了。
2.听力要勤练
听力一直是我的弱项,但在考试中听力成绩还是比较理想的,事后总结原因,主要是考前一段时间(尤其是考前一周)听的很勤,耳朵敏锐了不少。
听力的训练分为精听和泛听,如果是单纯的想提高英语水平,一般都是建议两者相结合,但若要应试,则最好多练精听,而精听的最佳材料,就是历年真题和模拟题。我认识的一些同学喜欢平时没事把BBC、VOA之类的当音乐听,美其名曰泛听。我觉得在考前这样并不是太好,首先这些听力材料有难度,不一定听得懂,而且若你习惯了这种漫不经心的听英语的方式,上了考场就很难集中精力。
精听的基本步骤如下:先泛听一遍或几遍,弄懂大概意思。再仔细地听,可以一句一句反复地听,把听到的内容写下来。把自己听写的跟原文相对照,阅读原文,弄懂原文意思。最后根据自己所听的和原文的意思,再仔细听,直至听明白每一个词为止。
如果要提高复合式听写能力,听抄练习是一个行之有效的途径。所谓听抄练习,就是在听完一句话后将其原原本本的写下来。这是一种很耗时麻烦的训练方法,但坚持一段时间会有很好的成效。
3.要认真对待真题
真题的作用绝对不容小觑,再权威的模拟试题或预测卷,命题思路与真题也是有差别的,而且难度一般较大,备考前中期做做还挺好,考前一周就尽量不要做新的了,很打击信心。所以我认为做透一套真题比粗粗做上十套模拟题更有用。但真题毕竟数量有限,因此一定要认真对待,反复做上几遍,不仅要知道真确答案是哪个选项,更要钻研为什么选这个。
什么阶段做真题,也是个讲究,单词还没背到七八成熟的,建议不要做,不然放眼望去尽是生词,你会很没信心的。
考前一周真题也能派上很大用场。这个时候做新题已经没有多大意义了,不妨拿出以前已经钻研透的真题来,每天严格按照考试时间和程序做题,一来增强信心,二来可以保证考试时达到最佳做题状态。
Punctuality means observing regular or appointed man who gets up at six o'clock every morning is man who promises to call on a friend at five o'clock in the afternoon and actually does so at that hour is also punctual.
The unpunctual man,on the other hand,never does what he has to do at the proper is always complaining that he finds no time to answer letters,to return calls, or to keep appointments promptly.
Undoubtedly,unpunctuality is harmful.
Getting up five minutes later than usual may upset the plan of the on a friend five minutes later than the appointed time may cause unexpected trouble to both to be punctual is a sign of disrespect towards a person is invited to a dinner but arrives later than expected,he keeps all the other guests and the host waiting for him is great unpunctuality leads to indolence and even failure in life.
1. 人们往往看到B的明显优点而忽视了它的缺点,同时A的'内在优势没有被重视。
第一段:To choose A or to choose B is something of a dilemma to the public because they sometimes are confused by the seemingly good qualities of B while neglect the genuinely good aspects of A.
第二段:[For B, people are often driven to believe that / It is quite easy for common people to CHOOSE B because of the obvious reason that] ____________. (As a proverb says, “Everything has two sides”.) Although B does have its seemingly profound advantages, in the meantime [there lie [harmful characteristics/ intrinsic drawbacks] in it such as ____________ / it can be achieved only conditionally because____________] . Some [people/experts] [maintain/warn] that____________. However, it is often overlooked [by the public/most people]. (Therefore we have no complete evidence to suggest that B is always better than A.)
第三段: Unfortunately, the innate quality of A is often underestimated.
或:What is more, if you notice the invisible benefits of CHOOSING A, you can understand A more deeply. Here I would explain a few of the most important reasons for choosing A. 第一点原因。第二点原因。第三点原因。(列举原因的句式见最后的“通用句型”)
第四段:Therefore from what we have discussed, we may safely come to the conclusion that CHOOSING AAA is a rather wise decision.
2. 选A还是选B的确是一个热门话题,我们来研究一下,A比B至少有三大优势:1,2,3.
第一段:There is no denying the fact that ____________(whether it is better to choose A or B) is a popular topic which is much talked about [not only by ____________, but also by ____________/by people across the world/ in a modern society].
或:There is no denying the fact that ____________(whether it is better to choose A or B) is a popular topic which has caused heated debate over a long period of time (because it affects everybody in his or her daily lives).
或:In a modern society, people are always faced with the dilemma of whether to choose A or B. This problem is a much-debated one in that it affects everybody in his or her daily lives.
或:(如果是针对某一事件的题目,不是什么popular topic)If ____________(it is announced that a new movie theater may be built ____________), I will not be surprised to see ____________ (whether it is better to choose A or B) become a popular topic which is much talked about not only by ____________, but also by ____________. Although it seems that [sometimes we can not tell which one outweigh the other between A and B / they normally coexist peacefully], they deserve some close examination. [If three criteria were taken into account in comparing these two, I would prefer A. / As far as I am concerned, I vote for the latter]. There are no less than three advantages in A as rendered below
Nowadays a growing number of people, especiallythe 20s or 30s, tend to stay indoors for most of their spare time, especially on holidays. Somespend the majority of the time online chatting, blogging, shopping, dating or playing computergames. Some sit with their eyes glued to the television screen, day and night.
Peoples opinions vary when it comes to this way of killing time. A great number of people maintain that staying indoors is cheap, comfortable, and most importantly, very safe. Others,however, frown upon staying indoors for too long. They are worried that lack of physical exercise and face-to-face communication with others will do harm to peoples body and mind.
Personally, I dont think staying indoors for most of the day should be advocated. Instead,people in all ages, their physical conditions permitting, should be encouraged to spend more time outdoors. The brilliant sunshine, the pleasant green space, the interactions with other people, etc. are all good for peoples health, both physically and psychologically.
Most people are under the illusion that a college degree guarantees success. There is no such guarantee without hard work.
许多人错误地认为大学学位能保证成功。不努力工作就没有这样的保证。
While the inclination to procrastinate is common, one must fully consider the detrimental impact of unnecessary delays.
虽然拖延的倾向是普遍的,但是人们应该充分考虑到不必要的延误造成的有害影响。
The tendency to take things for granted is understandable, but the need for one to rationally evaluate the circumstances of any situation is absolutely essential.
想当然的倾向是可以理解的,但是,理智地估计任何情形的情况是完全必需的。
From what has been discussed above, we may safely draw a conclusion that, although the parents' desire to look after children by themselves is understandable, its disadvantages far outweigh the advantages.
通过以上讨论,我们可以得出如下结论:尽管家长想亲自照看孩子的愿望是可以理解的,但是这样做的缺点远大于优点。
From what has been discussed above, we may safely draw the conclusion that, although extra studies indeed enjoy many obvious advantages, its disadvantages shouldn't be ignored and far outweigh its advantages. It is absurd to force children to take extra studies after school.
通过以上讨论,我们可以得出结论:尽管额外学习的确有很多优点,但它的缺点不可忽视,且远大于它的优点。因此,放学后强迫孩子额外学习是不明智的.。(结论句式)
While achieving success is easier said than done, persistence does in fact pay off. One of the most important traits of a successful person is self-confidence, another is desire, and still another is determination.
获得成功说起来比做起来容易,然而坚持不懈确实会有好结果。成功人士的最重要的特征之一是自信,第二是渴望,还有一个是决心。
Independence offers many advantages, the first and foremost of which is self-determination.
独立带来很多好处,首先也是最重要的是自决
There has been undesirable trend in recent years towards the worship of money . A recent survey showed that X percent of respondents ranked getting rich as their top priority , compared to X percent only a few years ago . Why do people fail to realize that wealth does not necessarily bring happiness?
近年来出现了对社会有害的拜金主义倾向。最近的一项调查表明,X%的调查对象把致富作为他们的首选,相比之下,就在几年前,只有X%的人这样想。为什么人们没能意识到财富不一定带来幸福呢?
Most people are of the opinion that wealth provides solutions to all problems. But in spite of the material benefits wealth provides , I believe one should abandon the pursuit of materialism and instead concentrate on the pursuit of happiness.
大多数人认为财富为所有问题提供解决的办法。但是,我认为,尽管财富提供物质上的利益,一个人应该放弃物质至上的追求,而是集中精力追求幸福。
the newly-coined word _online education_ may by no means sound strange to most people. during the past several years, hundreds of online education colleges have sprung up around china.
why could online education be so popular in such a short period of time? for one thing, if we want to catch up with the development and the great pace of modern society, we all should possess an urgent and strong desire to study, while most people nowadays are under so enormous pressures that they can hardly have time and energy to study full time at school. furthermore, online education enables them to save a great deal of time on the way spent on the way between home and school. last but not least, the quick development of internet,which makes possible all our dreams of attending class on the net,should also be another critical reason.
personally, i appreciate this new form of education. its indeed a helpful complement to the traditional educational means. it can provide different learn
ers with more flexible and various ways to learn. most of all, through online education, we can stick to our jobs and at the same time study and absorb the latest knowledge.
college students join the army(大学生参军)
its a good option for college students to join the army. army is the important constitution in a country. nowadays, many college students prefer to be soldiers. why?
firstly, there are many preferential policies for college students to join the army, such as tuition waiver, wage subsidy. whats more, i consider join the army can strengthen our mind. in my opinion, its the most important reason to join the army. whatever you are a student or others, two years training can build a strong body, too.
i want to join the army. my family is delighted to my decision. because i want to be a great and strong woman and change my images in front of my friends.
I always feel tired after eight classes a day, so my dream school starts at 8:30 . and ends at 3:30 . There are three lessons in the morning and two in the afternoon. We can choose our favorite lessons to learn. We can spend more time doing some outside reading. The students do after-school activities for one and a half hours every day.
We needn’t do a lot of homework. We are all happy to stay at school. Besides that, my dream school looks like a big garden. There are many kinds of flowers around the modern buildings. Sweet perfumes are diffused all around. If I want to have a rest, I can lie on the grass, listen to music by the lake or look out at the flowers from the classroom teachers here are kind and helpful. They are not only our teachers but also our good friends. The students are polite and friendly. We all know how to keep our school clean and tidy. There is no litter around the campus.
I love my dream school. We will grow up to be happier there.

Since speech is a reflection of personality, you should try to speak in a clear and loud voice to show your confidence. Finally, you should make full preparation for the position you are applying for. Talking about it in a professional way will impress the interviewer deeply. If you take all the problems into account, you will probably succeed in a job interview.
dear frank:
i am terribly sorry to tell you that i have lost the valuable book you were so kind to lend me last week. i read it everyday and intended to finish it next month. last night when i came to my room, it was nowhere to be found. i will try to recover it as soon as possible. if i fail to find it, i will get a new book for you.
but i am afraid it can never take the place of the old one. old books are like old friends. once lost, they can never be replaced. they are connected with cherished associations which the new ones can never have. and for this irrecoverable loss, i am to blame. i was so careless with my things. this is a warning to me to be more careful in the future.
yours truly,
tom

XXXX年XX月XX日
nowadays, there has been a heated discussion as to a better choice between attending college at home and abroad. views on the topic vary greatly among people from different walks of life.
some believe that it is a better choice to study in domestic colleges, but others consider it better to study abroad. i totally agree with the latter idea for the reasons presented below. to begin with, it harms the society in that the greater the competition is, the higher the recruitment requirements will become.
therefore, with experiences of studying abroad, graduates will become more competitive in job hunting. furthermore, it is beneficial to the students themselves to study abroad. without the choice to pursue overseas study, many great scholars today would never have achieved such great success.
from my perspective, it is crucial that the government should encourage people to pursue overseas study. also it is crucial that people should understand the meaning and value of attending college abroad.
only in this way can we achieve greater success.
第一招 复习方式需改变 要与自身兴趣相结合
?xml:namespace>
第二招 听力材料需巧用 历年真题好资料
听力题的原文是考试中最简单的一部分,其中的小对话场景真实,用语地道,是复习时可以拿来使用的好资料,我们可以把它作为备战的突破口,
考生可以每天抽出一段时间,将历年真题中的对话进行跟读、背诵,熟读每一个句子,这样对口语就会有很大提高。另外,听力原文里无论是对话还是语段,都会有生词出现,对于这些词汇,考生如果能做到一听就懂,放在阅读中自然就没有问题,你会发现,很多平时背了几遍也记不住的单词立刻就迎刃而解了,不仅掌握了它的意思,还懂得如何去应用在句子中,词汇量也随即大幅度扩大。由此可见,听力原文其实浑身上下都是宝,好好利用会令考生获益多多。
第三招 要想听力速提高 反复听写是绝招
考生可以专门准备好一段听力录音,不看文字答案,也不看选项,直接一句一句地听写。听不懂、写不出的地方就反复听两到三遍,实在写不出来的可先放一边,留出空格。一套题听写完毕再总体对一下答案,勾出错误的和没有写出来的部分,这个时候再回想一下当时没有听写出来或听写错误的原因,是由于单词连读、弱读的问题,还是由于口音的差别和单词拼写不正确,然后对照修改过的答案重新再听一次,这时要注意之前错误的地方要着重听。一套题如此反复这样练习,直到自己完全没有错误为止。

I took a trip to Shanghai with my mother during the seven-day holiday. It took us more than two hours to drive to Shanghai from my home in Haimen. We stayed in a large hotel on the eighth floor. On the first day, I just stayed in the hotel and rested. On the second day, my brother and I went to Nanjing Road. It’s the busiest street in Shanghai. When we got there, there were lots of people. We walked from one shop to another. I bought two T-shirts and two pairs of trousers for the ing summer. The T-shirts and trousers I bought are all white because white is my favourite colour. My brother also bought some clothes.
On the third day, my mother took me to Jinjiang Entertainment Centre. It was full of people. I played many kinds of gamesthere. I had a good time. The other days, I went to some other interesting places, such as the Oriental Bright Pearl TV Tower, the Huangpu River and Shanghai International Conference Centre. I didn’t forget to do my homework in the evening. I had a full an
d happy holiday.
in the past hundred years, there have heen frequent natural disasters, such as floods, droughts, mud-rock flows, seismic sea waves, earthquakes, windstorms and the stretching of new deserts. the disasters have killed millions upon millions of people, destroyed countless homes, and wiped out numerous pieces of fertile land.
now more and more people become aware that those disasters have much to do with what we have done to the earth. we have cut down too many trees in the forests,we have badly polluted the environment, we have shocked our own home-planet time and again with tremendously powerful eplosions of nuclear bombs. as a result, climates have become abnormal, rainwater rushes down hillsides angrily, and the underground energy goes up to revenge itself on us.
the earth is our only home-planet. it is urgent for us to stop damaging it, and to do our best to protect it and make it a lovely place suitable to live in, for we have nowhere to go and survive ecept where we are now.
The first time I entered the campus as a freshman, I was deeply attracted by her cultural atmosphere and historical connotation. Fudan is a graceful lady who is accustomed to serenity but meanwhile each action of hers outpours her innermost tern perament.
Apparently it is worth every effort to probe into her world for the sake of both physical and mental enrichment. Her humanistic spirit inspires me to care for everything around, even the most trivial one.
On the other hand, catching up with the times, Fudan is modern and smart. You see, the many age-old buildings here are actually great libraries and labs. Scientific and technological developrnent is easily smelt in the air,because she never lags behind the world.
Our university has first-level equipment and the most experienced teachers as well as the best students.
My campus activities are rich and consider it to be a honor that I've got a chance to study here and I sincerely hope that we can live wonderful lives in our campus!
大学英语三级考试阅读理解
一、分析文章的结构规律
一般来说,我们阅读文章的目的是为了获取信息。文章体裁不同,其结构特点就会各异。因此,我们获取信息的最有效方法之一就是去学习和了解文章的结构,以便更加准确、快速地定位我们要找的信息。大学英语四级考试中的阅读理解文章的体裁主要有三类:叙述文、说明文和议论文。
1、叙述文
叙述文一般以讲述个人生活经历为主,对于经历的陈述通常由一定的时间概念贯穿其中,或顺序或倒序。但是四级考试中一般不出现单纯的叙述文,因为单纯的叙述文比较简单、易懂。所以三级多是夹叙夹议的文章。这类文章的基本结构模式是:
1) 用一段概括性的话引入要叙述的经历(话题)
2) 叙述先前的经历(举例1)及其感悟或发现
3) 叙述接下来的经历(举例2)及其感悟或发现
4) 做出总结或结论
2、说明文(描述文)
说明文的一般结构模式和叙述文的结构模式有相通之处即:提出问题(或以一个事例引出问题)---- (专家)发现直接原因----- 分析深层原因-----得出结论或找到出路。 知道了类似的文章结构特点,就可以据此来进行考题预测。比如,我们看出了该篇文章属于这种结构类型,就能判断出几个问题中肯定有一个要问原因,还有可能要出现推断题。
3、议论文
When times become difficult (and you know they sometimes will), remember a moment in your life that was filled with joy and happiness.
Remember how it made you feel, and you will have the strength you need to get through any trial.
When life throws you one more obstacle than you think you can handle, remember something you achieved through perseverance and by struggling to the end.
In doing so, you'll find you have the ability to overcome each obstacle brought your way.
When you find yourself drained and depleted of energy, remember to find a place of sanctuary and rest.
Take the neccessary time in your own life to dream your dreams and renew your energy, so you'll be ready to face each new day.
When you feel tension building, find something fun to do. You'll find that the stress you feel will dissipate and your thoughts will become clearer.
When you're faced with so many negative and draining situations, realize how minuscule problems will seem when you view your life as a whole--and remember the positive things.
《How to Ask for a Raise》
One of the most intimidating things to do in the business world is to ask for a raise at your current job. Sometimes, the boss just does not pay you enough money. So what do you do about it? There is a way to request a raise, but you had better be careful when doing that.
The best way to make more money within a netpany is to be in the direct flow of the cash. Companies will want to keep you around if you have some leverage. Being a direct cause of their profits is a great way to gain some leverage.
One mistake that people always seem to make is that they are never sure exactly how much money to ask for. If you are going to ask for a raise, then you should have some figure in mind of how much more you want. If you are successful in meeting with your boss and making your case, then it will look awful if you sit there with a blank stare as he asks you how much you want. Consider a realistic percentage, but be willing to negotiate in discuss. Do some research and figure out exactly how much folks make in your profession that have had similar experience and success.
Do not ask for a raise based solely upon your personal needs. Instead, concentrate solely on your achievements, merits, and worth concerning the netpany. By doing this, you will create a professional environment in which you will establish some leverage.
work and play are two important parts in people's life, but some times they are contradictory, whether we can balance them has much to do with our success.
some people think that we should do more work, because everyone has a limited life, and we should make as many contributions as we can to society. besides, we can acquire more knowledge and gain more eperience by hard work, which will help us a lot later in our life.
others believe that we should spare enough time for play. there is a saying that all work and no play makes john a dull boy. play makes people feel relaed and free them from the stress of work.
in this sense, it is also beneficial to our health. so if we don't play, we can't work well. in my opinion, we should do more work when we are young be cause we are energetic, and we can spend more time playing and enjoying our life when we become aged. of course, we should never overdo things and never indulge ourselves with play.
Discovery is not such a big and noble word that only experts and scientists are entitled to use. In fact, every one of us makes discoveries as we grow. For example, a baby will find out how he can play with his toy car after he has tried several times. We will discover how to ride a bike skillfully after practicing again and again.
Often a discovery brings great joy to the person who makes it. You will certainly be delighted when you find the thing you have been looking for. You will be extremely happy when you one day realize that you have learned and mastered a skill or method which was almost too difficult for you at the beginning.
Sometimes, however, discovery means regret or even pain. You witt feet great regret when you find that you have hurt one of your friends or one of your family members. You will surelybe disappointed when you discover that you failed in the examination for which you have prepared for a tong time. Joy or sorrow as it may bring, discovery is an integral part of our life.
Travel has become a world-wide activity. Never before have so many people travelled to so many different parts of the world. With new modes of fast and comfortable transport,more and more people are tempted to leave their homes to see more of the world.
旅行已经成为一种世界性的活动。以前从未有过如此多的人去过世界上许多不同的地方。采用快速、舒适的交通方式,越来越多的人想离开自己的家去看更多的世界。
People travel for many reasons but perhaps the most common is travelling for pleasure. It provides an effective way to get your mind off your work. When you return, you are fresh and energetic and ready to work harder.
人们旅行有很多原因,但也许最常见的'是为了开心而旅行。它提供了一种有效的方法把你的注意力从工作上转移开。当你回来时,你神清气爽,精力充沛,准备更加努力地工作。
Travel is also one of the best means for learning. One may have heard or read about something, but one can never get an accurate picture of it until one sees believe that the knowledge obtained from actual experience is more valuable than that obtained from books.
旅行也是学习的最好方法之一。一个人可能听说过或读过一些东西,但一个人只有亲眼所见,才能获得准确的图像。我相信从实际经验中获得的知识比从书本中获得的知识更有价值。

when it comes to disasters, quite a lot of people believe they will come across sudden disasters in their life. to begin with, natural disasters like earthquakes, flood and draught occur now and then; in addition, diseases like sars, cancer and tumor will attack people unepectedly; last but not the least, car accidents, plane crashes can’t be ignored as part of disasters.
why there are so many disasters? the reasons may go as follows: on one hand, some mysteries about nature are beyond our control and understanding; on another hand, people are careless and can’t foresee what will happen beforehand.
from what has been discussed above, i may safely draw the conclusion that disasters can’t be avoided now, but with more knowledge about nature, we’ll certainly reduce the loss brought by them to the smallest degree, so the prospect we are looking forward to will be both bright and encouraging.
