To see a world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.
一沙一世界,
一花一天堂,
手中即无限,
永恒亦短暂。
Nowadays, many famous university campuses have become one of the popular tourist attractions. It has been shown on TV and on the radio that every year thousands and thousands of middle school students visit Tsing Hua University and Peking University and other famous universities in China. In the place far away from the capital city, the local students also visit the universities famous in their own province.
So far as the present situation is concerned, is it a good or bad thing to open the university campus for tourists? Different people have different opinions. On one hand, some people argued that it is a good thing for the students to visit the famous university campus in that it can enable the middle students to get more information about the university and they can have enough time and opportunity to prepare themselves with the chance to get into the university. On the other hand, some people hold a negative view about this phenomenon. In their opinion, the public tourism will have negative effect on the universities because it will not only do harm to the environment but also to the intellectual atmosphere.
In my opinion, the tourism to the universities is not a good thing. The campus is mainly a place for study. With the increasing tourism on the campus, it will ruin the spiritual atmosphere in this learning field.
首先,提纯范文 “谋篇布局”及结构模板。
第一段:提出问题或现象。Nowadays, … … have become one of the popular … …. It has been shown on TV and on the radio that … ….
第二段:正反列举人们的看法。So far as the present situation is concerned, is it a good or bad thing to … …? Different people have different opinions. On one hand, some people argued that it is a good thing for … … in that … …. On the other hand, some people hold a negative view about this phenomenon. In their opinion, … … will have negative effect on … … because it will not only do harm to … … but also to … ….
第三段:摆明自己观点。In my opinion, … … is not a good thing. … … With the increasing … …, it will ruin … ….
其次,提纯范文“段落写作”。
段落写作分为统一性,连贯性和完整性三方面。
统一性(unity:段落开头的主题句应该做到不可太宽泛,也不可太具体,做到有较强的概括性才能使下文做到有的放矢的展开。范文第二段首句以设问的方式提出一个问题is it a good or bad thing就有很强的概况性。下文自然会一方面从好的方面说明,另一方面从坏的方面说明。
连贯性(coherence:关联词是使文章段落之间相互连贯的必要条件。范文中nowadays, on one hand, on the other hand, in one’s opinion即以“启承转合”递进的顺序是文章条理清晰,层层展开。
完整性(completeness:以设问句“So far as the present situation is concerned, is it a good or bad thing to open the university campus for tourists?”开头,这是平时较少运用的段落写作方式——设问法。“On one hand … …. On the other hand, … ….”是段落写作分类列举法的典型用法。
再次,提纯范文“句子写作”。
1. It has been shown that … …
类似句型:It is known to us that … …
It is said that … …
It is reported that … …
It is controversial that … …
2. “… … Tsing Hua University and Peking University and other famous universities … …。”——并列句。并列句是简单的复杂句。但其运用方法并不简单,注意练习并接句的使用,会使句子显的更加饱满。
3. enable v. 使…能够
I gave him full directions to enable him to find the house.
4. in that = because
表“因为”的连词还有since, for, as,如:
The boy was absent because he was ill. = The boy was absent since he was ill.
此句以我们常用的人称开头,句式简单,我们可以通过把since提前改变句式,如:
Since the boy was ill, he was absent. 句式多样化。
最后,提纯范文“措辞”。
1. attraction n. 具有吸引力的事情。
2. thousands and thousands 成千上万的
形容“多”的表达方法:millions and millions
a multitude of
a great deal of
a large amount of
plenty of
many a
3. “some people argued that … …”中的“argue”并不是“讨论,辩论”的意思,而是“认为”。
I argue that … …
I maintain that … …
I claim that … …
I insist that … … = I think that … …
I hold that … …
I assert that … …
I assume that … …
4. negative adj. 否定的.,相反的
hold negative view = hold opposite opinions
5. phenomenon n. 现象
social phenomenon 社会现象
natural phenomenon 自然现象
6. intellectual adj. 聪明的= intelligent, bright, clever
(选词策略:使用最近所学的单词,如intellectual > intelligent > bright > clever
在分析并掌握范文之后,我们需要运用范文知识练习仿写。笔者运用2005年12月范文中的模板结构仿写了2006年12月的四级作文,以供参考:
1. 许多人喜欢在除夕夜看春节晚会
2. 但有些人提出取消春节晚会
3. 我的看法
Nowadays, the Spring Festival Evening has become one of the popular topic and attractions during every traditional New Year’s Eve. It has been shown on TV and on the radio that every year thousands and thousands of Chinese people appear to be accustomed to enjoying the sights and sounds of a brilliant feast, while gathering with their beloved family.
However, an increasing number of people have voiced different opinions towards it. So far as the present situation is concerned, is it a good or bad thing to cancel the Spring Festival Evening? Different people have different opinions. On one hand, some people argued that it is a good thing to amuse the audience in that it is composed by a numerous adequate programs, such as the emotional song, the graceful dance, the funny short sketch, the amusing comic dialogue, the delightful magic, and the marvelous acrobatics and so on. On the other hand, some people hold a negative view about this phenomenon. In their opinion, the Spring Festival Evening will have negative effect on the family harmony because it will not only do harm to having the talks between family members on the Spring Festival Eve but also to enjoying the gourmet meal in a fancy restaurant.
In my opinion, the Spring Festival Evening is a good thing. It may not remain a must for all people, but it can bring us a strong sense of festivity and serve as an alternative among the variety of holiday activities. With the increasing audience of the Spring Festival Evening, it will ruin a distinctive culture during the Spring Festival vacation.
二、P44主动学习,从而锻炼他们的思考能力、判断能力和表达能力,是一种能让孩子表达自己意见的授课方法,正是以我的“社会科”为模板。是为了让孩子对以往至今的尝试和先例进行质疑,让孩子们获得“复眼思考”的能力而开发的学科。这门学科最大目的是让孩子们更进一步地研究关于身边的事例乃至社会的人类的关系。
三、P45通过别人的谈话,我们可以了解这些没有正确答案的问题,收集信息,以自己的方式独立思考、讨论、获得不同的切入点。
四、P48为了理解像这样的两种极端的意见,读不同的书再进行比较是最关键的。通过读书,如果我们能够拥有描绘人生轴线和世界观的鸟瞰图的话,应该就能进行逻辑性的议论和判断了吧。
五、P154如何磨炼信息综合能力,策划旅行,包括遭遇危险情况在内的所有问题。当面对这些非预定调和问题时,我们要故意将自己逼上绝路。
感悟赏析:
读这本书突然想起了一个比尔盖茨读书的专访,他觉得看书就是先要有一个大的.知识框架,跟一个大树只有树干没有树叶,然后不停的上面合适的位置填树叶,比如想了解科技,你就应该先了解这个科技是历史,这个技术的演化历程是怎样的,然后在把相关的技术,发明家往上添加,慢慢的丰富整个体系。
其次,他需要区分对读者认同的观念跟不认同的观点,认同的观点可以使看书流畅不用停顿,对有歧义的会在书上写评语感想。
要提高学生的口语水平,就要分析影响学生口语水平提高的主要因素。笔者在近几年的教学中发现,影响学生口语能力提高的原因是多方面的,但主要有以下几个因素。
教师的口语能力教师自身素质参差不齐,如部分教师的口语能力不强,不能自如地进行口语交际,无法胜任课堂交际活动的组织和指导工作。同时,教师授课任务繁重,在职进修培训较少,口语水平的提高很难有质的飞跃。
教师的教学理念有些教师没有充分认识到口语的重要性,仍然把学生能否通过有关考试看成是语言学习是否成功的唯一标志。这种理念导致教师对学生口语能力培养的忽视,在课堂上很少有时间对学生进行口语训练,使学生失去了宝贵的语言交际的机会。
教师的教学方式有些教师的课堂教学模式、教学方法与手段较为单一,仍是“满堂灌”和“填鸭式”的教学方法,教师讲,学生听,教师读,学生跟。只是一味强调语言点的教学,不重视口语教学,忽视语言的交际性,除基本的课堂用语外,教师使用口语交际的空间范围不大,师生之间没有形成讲英语的氛围。
学生的口语基础由于高职学生生源的多样化,学生入学时的英语水平出现了群体差异。比如,普通高中学生基础较好,语法知识、读写能力有一定优势,但他们习惯了以听讲、记笔记为主的教学方式,不太适应更为灵活的以开口说为主的方式;对口升学的学生学过一些与专业有关的英语知识,有一定的知识面,但基础不太牢固,更不用说口头表达能力了。总之,学生是为通过中考、高考而学英语,注重的是笔头训练,缺乏听、说、读、写的有机结合,特别是忽视了英语口头表达能力的培养。进入职业院校后,相当多的学生仍旧遵循中学时养成的学习习惯,死啃语法,没有对口语能力的培养给予足够的重视。
学生的学习心理口语的主动性、交际性、公开性、灵活性给学生形成了心理上的压力。中国学生大多性格内向,缺乏自信,害怕讲得不好有损面子而不敢开口。在课堂上,教师要花很多时间鼓励学生用英语表达,经过鼓励,学生才慢慢思考,小心谨慎地讲出一个句子。这样一来耽误了时间,完不成教学任务,教师便不再对学生进行鼓励训练。久而久之,产生恶性循环,越不开口讲就越不会讲,越不会讲就越怕开口讲,使学生形成心理上的障碍。
语言环境一个良好的语言环境对于提高学习者的口语能力往往起着潜移默化的作用。学习者常常是在不经意中受到良好的语言熏陶,从而培养出较好的语感和语言习惯。但由于客观条件的制约,很多高职院校尚未建立完备的外语环境,以致许多学生走出英语课堂,就很少有进行口语练习的实践机会,自然也难以培养自觉说英语的习惯。
测试手段测试手段往往是学习的指挥棒。到目前为止,高职英语水平测试主要采用笔试(含部分听力),而口语考试一直没有组织。这从客观上影响了教师和学生对口语的重视程度以及在口语训练上的积极性。
文章的开始提出某college teacher认为:"High school English teachers are not doing their jobs ." 因为 His students has a bad command of English.
作者的反观点是:
1 It is inevitable for one generation to complain the one immediately following it. And it is human nature to look for reasons for our dissatisfaction.
2 The people who criticize the high school teachers are not aware that their language ability has developed through the years.
最后的结论是:The concern about the decline and fall of the English language is a generation, and is not new and peculiar to taday's young people.
议论文的这种结构特点决定了它的主要题型是作者观点态度题,文章主旨题以及推理判断题。只要发现了这种结构特点,解答问题的主要任务就变成了到段落内找答案, 基本上不存在任何困难。
通过研究以上的文章结构特点,我们不难发现,在四级考试阅读理解中无论任何体裁的'文章都遵循着这样一个共同的模式:提出话题(观点或事例)---- 用事例分析原因(或批驳观点------得出结论。 对文章结构特点的把握有助于读者更加自觉地关注文章的开始和结尾,分清观点和事例,从而在四级考试的阅读理解中准确定位,快速答题。
