　　第二篇：

　　Although the United States covers so much land and the land produces far more food than the present population needs，its people are by now almost entirely an urban society Less than a tenth of the people are engaged in agriculture and forestry(林業(yè))，and most of the rest live in or around towns，small and large.Here the traditional picture is changing：every small town may still be very like other small towns，and the typical small town may represent a widely accepted view of the country，but most Americans do not live in small towns any more.Half the population now lives in some thirty metropolitan areas(1arge cities with their suburbs、of more than a million people each—a larger proportion than in Germany or England，let alone France.The statistics(統(tǒng)計)of urban and rural population should be treated with caution because so many people who live in areas classified as rural travel by car to work in a nearby town each day.As the rush to live out of town continues.rural areas within reach of towns are gradually filled with houses，so that it is hard to say at what moment a piece of country becomes a suburb But more and more the typical American lives in a metropolitan rather than a small town environment.

　　第四篇：

　　If we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago，we should probably have to say that we could not remember But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each day，we should be able to give an answer to the question.

　　It is the same in history Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country，but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war.Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to Write.For example，we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4，000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them.But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa. because they had not learned to write. Sometimes.of course，even if the people cannot write，they may know something of the past.They have heard about it from older people，and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings，and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations For most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past.This we may call remembered history’.Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is，because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing.But where there are no written records，such spoken stories are often very helpful.

　　D.the people there did not know how to write

　　43.“Remembered history”refers to

　　A.history based on a persons imagination

　　B .stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouth

　　C .songs and dances about the most important events

　　D .both B and C

　　44.“Remembered history”is regarded as valuable only when

　　第四篇：

　　When Mrs.Joseph Groeger died recently in Vienna，Austria，people asked the obvious，“Why did she live to be 107?”Answers were provided by a survey conducted among 148 Viennese men and women who had reached the age of 100.Somewhat surprising was the fact that the majority had lived most of their lives in cities.In spite of the city’s image as an unhealthy place，city living often provides benefits that country living can lack.One factor seems to be important to the longevity(長壽)of those interviewed. This factor is exercise.in the cities it is often faster to walk short distances than to wait for a bus.Even taking public transportation often requires some walking.Smaller apartment houses have no elevators(電梯)，and so people must climb stairs.City people can usually walk to local supermarkets Since parking spaces are hard to find，there is often no alternative to walking.

　　On the other hand，those who live in the country and suburbs do not have to walk every day.In fact，the opposite is often true.To go to school，work，or almost anywhere else，they must ride in cars.

　　33.To reach the third floor of a building.it would probably be most healthful _B_

　　A. to take the elevator

　　B.to walk up the stairs

　　C.to ride in a car

　　A.they dont live near business areas

　　B. they dont need the exercise

　　C.they never have parking problems

　　D.they can’t afford to take the bus

　　35.A conclusion that can be drawn from this passage is that _D___

　　A.air pollution is not serious

　　B.anyone can live to be 107

　　C.country people should move to the city

　　D.walking is a healthful exercise

　　第五篇：

　　For any Englishman，there can never be any discussion as to who is the worlds greatest dramatist(劇作家).Only one name can possibly suggest itself to him：that of William Shakespeare Every Englishman has some knowledge，however slight，of the work of our greatest writer.All of US use words，phrases and quotations from Shakespeares writings that have become part of the common property of the English-speaking people.Most of the time we are probably unaware of the source of the words we used，rather like the old lady who was taken to see a performance of Hamlet and complained that it was full of well—known proverbs and quotations.

　　Shakespeare，more perhaps than any other writer，makes full use of the great resources of the English language.Most of US use about five thousand words in our normal use of English;Shakespeare in his works used about twenty-five thousand.

　　There is probably no better way for a foreigner to appreciate the richness and variety of the English language than by studying the various ways in which Shakespeare used it.Such a study is well worth the effort(it is not，of course，recommended to beginners)even though some aspects of English usage，and the meaning of many words，have changed since Shakespeares day.

　　拓展：高中英語閱讀能力提高方式

　　一、閱讀方面的問題

　　1.閱讀語法上的問題�，F(xiàn)在的英語閱讀材料，其語法的結(jié)構(gòu)復(fù)雜，運用了大量的復(fù)雜語句，其語言表達的變化過大，隱含的信息分布較廣。即使認(rèn)識每一個單詞，但是在整個語篇的理解上不能夠做到準(zhǔn)確到位。

　　2.閱讀詞匯上的問題。在英語閱讀材料中，對大量的生詞，也考慮到因人而異，有的學(xué)生詞匯掌握較多，煩惱也相對較少。但是詞匯積累較少的學(xué)生，容易忘掉學(xué)過的詞匯或者是對于其意義記不太清楚，也有可能和同形詞發(fā)生混淆，導(dǎo)致閱讀壓力增大。

　　3.閱讀語篇上的問題。

　　1)對于整篇文章的歸納不強。

　　2)在英語閱讀文章中，經(jīng)常會運用到比喻、借代等手法，導(dǎo)致文章意思不夠明確，學(xué)生難以理解文章的整體意思。

　　3)對部分涉及到其他學(xué)科知識的文章，導(dǎo)致對此類文章的理解就更難了。

　　4.閱讀心理上的問題。曾經(jīng)拜訪的心理學(xué)者告訴我，當(dāng)人在閱讀的時候，如果緊張、焦急，很容易產(chǎn)生恐懼或者抗拒心理， 使得閱讀能力不能發(fā)揮正常的水平。

　　5.閱讀技能上問題。

　　1)不良的閱讀習(xí)慣主要表現(xiàn)在逐詞閱讀、口讀以及用筆或者手指指著讀，缺少了解文章意群的觀念， 直接用視覺接受文章文字信息。

　　2)缺乏閱讀技巧，主要包括語法分析、句子的邏輯、承接語以及判斷文章大意等。

　　二、提高閱讀能力的策略

　　1.加強英語詞匯與慣用手法的積累

　　高中學(xué)生英語閱讀能力的高低是與掌握詞匯量的多少密不可分的，從目前筆者對學(xué)生的了解、觀察來看，大多數(shù)學(xué)生掌握的詞匯量相對較少，這也是影響學(xué)生閱讀能力的主要因素之一。

　　1)構(gòu)詞記憶法英語的詞匯大約有120 萬左右，但是多數(shù)都是由構(gòu)詞法來組成的。構(gòu)詞法中包含了派生、合成以及轉(zhuǎn)化。在教學(xué)中，學(xué)生一般使用的是前綴和后綴的含義用法， 此法能夠依據(jù)已經(jīng)了解的詞匯來猜出相應(yīng)的派生詞， 也能夠達到擴充詞匯的目的。例如，super 這一前綴包含了“超過、超越”的意思，就可以聯(lián)系猜出：超級市場：supermarket; 超人：superman; 超級明星：superstar。

　　2)聯(lián)想記憶法聯(lián)想法就是由一個詞聯(lián)想到一些與之相關(guān)聯(lián)或者無關(guān)聯(lián)的詞匯， 例如：live 生活，就能夠聯(lián)想到直播、活、享受人生等詞義。

　　3)廣泛閱讀記憶法想要讓自己的閱讀能夠流利，就需要大量的閱讀來豐富自身詞匯量。曾經(jīng)有一句名言就指出了閱讀與詞匯量之間的關(guān)系“To readwell, you need a strong vocabulary. To build astrong vocabulary, you need to read well.”

　　2.牢固掌握語法知識最近幾年來，在高考的聽力閱讀中，對閱讀理解短文的句式正逐漸走向復(fù)雜，掌握牢固的語法相關(guān)知識的好處也就隨之體現(xiàn)出來了。比如在閱讀理解中遇到難以理解的長句，就可以運用語法手段，進行分析，弄清楚各部分的關(guān)系，才能夠正確的掌握整個句子的意思， 才能最終掌握整篇文章的意思。

　　3.培養(yǎng)學(xué)生良好的閱讀習(xí)慣，掌握有效的閱讀技巧良好的英語閱讀習(xí)慣， 要求學(xué)生在平時的學(xué)習(xí)中多讀、多背名作和寫作精彩的段落，以增強自身語感。要讓學(xué)生改正其不聲讀、不回讀等不良習(xí)慣。只有這樣，才能進行有效的閱讀并提高其準(zhǔn)確率。

　　有了良好的閱讀習(xí)慣， 還需要正確的閱讀技巧的輔助。作為英語教師，應(yīng)當(dāng)教授學(xué)生一切相關(guān)英語閱讀提高的正確的思維方法。一般應(yīng)注意以下幾點：

　　1)Skimming—粗略的閱讀。粗略的閱讀即快速的瀏覽、閱讀全文，掌握文章的主要意思，明確全文的意圖。

　　2)Skipping—跳躍的閱讀。閱讀時， 做到一目十行，在全文中找到相關(guān)信息，無關(guān)聯(lián)的盡量一帶而過。

　　3)Guessing the new words—猜測生詞。在高中的英語閱讀中，經(jīng)常會遇到生詞，在不同的文章、語境中，單詞所表示的意思都會不一樣。這就需要學(xué)生根據(jù)上下文的意思以及構(gòu)詞法來猜測其意思。

　　三、注重合理的評價與課外閱讀

　　1.合理的評價。作為高中英語教師，在適當(dāng)?shù)臅r間選取合理的評價，讓學(xué)生體會到成功的喜悅，也能夠大大的激發(fā)他們對英語學(xué)習(xí)的興趣。試想一下，當(dāng)學(xué)生能夠經(jīng)常取得成功，對英語閱讀的恐懼心理也能夠越來越輕，自信心也能夠越來越強，學(xué)習(xí)熱情也能水漲船高。經(jīng)過長時間的影響，學(xué)生的自主學(xué)習(xí)能力也能夠得到進一步的提高，閱讀能力也隨之提高，學(xué)生的詞匯、語法、語篇等障礙也能夠得到全面的清除。

　　2.課外補充閱讀在課余時間，除了教材以外，應(yīng)擴充學(xué)生的課外英語閱讀量。一般來說，課外閱讀量應(yīng)保持在平時教材的兩倍左右。最好是選擇一些敘事、幽默、人物類型的文章，才能有效的調(diào)動學(xué)生的閱讀興趣，也能讓學(xué)生更好的融入英語閱讀當(dāng)中。

　　總之， 目前高考聽力中的閱讀量以及閱讀理解的量越來越大。在閱讀教學(xué)中，除了掌握英語閱讀技巧以外，還要堅持一定的限時閱讀訓(xùn)練，以提高閱讀和理解的速度。
