2009年英語四級「機考」基本常識
新四級機考主要有三大不同:
首先是考試形式不同,傳統的四級考試是完全的筆試,而新四級考試則是依靠網路和計算機來進行,對計算機和網路設備等技術上要求較高;
其次是考試時間不同,傳統的四級考試時間為上午9點至11:20分,而新四級機考時間為上午9點至11點,比原來少了20分鍾。據介紹,之所以時間縮短,是因為傳統四級考試是分兩段式進行的,當中有一個收卷、發卷的停頓過程,而新四級機考由於完全在計算機上考試,不要中途停頓;
第三是通過新四級機考的學生除了有四級考試證書以外,還有一張參加機考的證書。
1、增加跟讀環節:
在題型方面,機考的試題大致分為八個部分。在聽力部分後面增加了跟讀的環節,需要考生對著計算機的麥克風重復之前聽到的對話,以此考查考生的口語是否標准。所以在考試前,考生們需要調試計算機的麥克風音量。
2、聽力比重加大:
和傳統筆試重閱讀有很大不同的是,機考更注重聽力,聽力比重佔70%。作文部分也融入了聽力要求,首先要看一段視頻,看懂了視頻以後在作文里簡單描述視頻內容,並闡發自己的觀點。如果沒有聽懂視頻,作文就根本無從下手。
3、經驗分享:
大聲跟讀熟悉鍵盤輸入。在跟讀環節,考生最好大聲跟讀,這樣計算機才能比較好地錄入聲音。機考的聽力語速要快於筆試的聽力,難度更大。而且除了通過電腦做選擇題外,還要根據聽力內容填寫單詞,由於計算機預留給考生答題的時間很短,所以要求考生能夠用鍵盤熟練地輸入英語單詞。此外,所有的題目都已經預設了答題時間,如果在答題時間內沒有答出,電腦將自動進入下一題,考生不能回頭再答卷,這讓習慣自己安排時間的考生有些不適應。也有老師提醒,機考除了閱讀部分外,其他幾個部分都是以第一部分的視頻材料為基礎的。要回答好後面幾部分的問題,考生必須對第一部分的視頻內容有清楚的了解。考生對視頻材料聽懂和了解得越多越深入,後面幾部分的測試結果就越好。反之,考生難獲得高分。
4、四六級機考框架圖
一段來自某個電視節目或實際生活的視頻(五分鍾左右)
考生在觀看1-2遍視頻後回答關於視頻理解的4-5個基本問題
聽力填空:把視頻中的會話按句重播,然後要求考生填出重播句中的關鍵詞
會話測試:把視頻中的會話按句重播,然後要求考生復述,評判使用語音識別技術
閱讀測試:一篇或兩篇短文
語法測試:以視頻和閱讀材料為基礎,回答語法問題
翻譯測試:以視頻和閱讀材料為基礎,完成翻譯
寫作測試:以視頻和閱讀材料為基礎,完成命題作文
CET4題型分為兩大類,與聽力相關的題型分值佔70%,閱讀理解佔30%。
在第一部分聽力的考試中,學生通過音頻和視頻完成考題。
全文:聽第一遍------理解主旨大意-------聽第二遍------獲取重要細節信息;段落或句子:聽寫單詞片語------填寫選擇語法結構------跟讀句子------寫總結或評論。
第二部分的閱讀理解有兩篇仔細閱讀和一篇長篇的快速閱讀。
聽力材料:採用訪談、新聞、報道、講座等,更真實,利用視頻優勢,提高聽力測試的速度。
聽力題材:包括教育、時事、科技、健康、體育、文化、社會、旅遊等。
聽力材料:來源國內為CCTV9,CRI;國外有BBC、VOA、The New York times、Discovery、CNN、National Geographic、NPR、CBS等。
聽力語音:主要有美音和英音;語速為130-150wpm.

2009年12月19日:全國大學英語下半年四六級考試時間
第二個問題:必須過了四級再過六級,不能同時報
第三個問題:有些學校規定大一學生不能報四級,有些學校沒這規定,具體要看你們學校怎麼規定了
③ 英語六級作文
在下四級587分,六級622分,向你簡單提點意見,原創:
你首先要記住這一點,六級考的是速度,一定要控制好速度,不要慢了,特別是閱讀理解,千萬不能在那兒停留太長的時間。
1.關於詞彙,我不知道你掌握情況怎麼樣,假如我是你這種情況的話我會先把核心詞彙先掌握住。怎麼掌握?星火詞彙書應該有吧?後面是不是一般都附有索引,我建議你現在先把後面的索引過一遍。怎麼過?就是僅看後面的索引,然後回想,這時就會碰見完全熟的單詞,半熟半生的單詞以及完全陌生的單詞。你應該明白了到底記什麼了吧?就是後面那兩類,限於時間的短促,咱們不可能從第一頁翻到最後一頁,現在只能記不會的單詞。明白了吧?
還有如果你沒有星火詞彙的,我這兒有些核心詞彙資料可以發給你,記住現在一定要把生詞幹掉!
2.關於聽力,據我的經驗,你只需把歷年六級真題聽爛即可,怎麼一個爛法?就是你按著六級考試規定的時間,聽一套聽力,對一遍答案,記住千萬別看原文。然後著重聽錯的,反復聽,實在聽不懂才去翻原文,一定記住這一點了,不然就沒有效果了。
還有那個聽寫,我給你提點建議,只要聽懂大意,聽懂個別關鍵詞即可,然後可以自己編。
還有就是能提前看題就提前看題。
還有一些基礎的,我記得我是在六級考試前聽了王長喜的詞彙書後附帶的一個光碟,它有這幾個特點:⒈沒有漢語朗讀,完全是英語;2.較長的停頓時間。我感覺這樣做有兩個好處:1.記單詞,我發現再聽朗讀中回想單詞是記單詞一個很好的過程,前提是你要反復聽,直到實在聽不懂了才去看書;2.練聽力,根據我的經驗,你不僅記住了每個單詞的讀音,如果有片語句子的話,效果會更好,跟上面一樣那個你要反復聽,直到實在聽不懂了才去看書。
3.關於閱讀理解,我只有一點意見,一定要控制好速度,不要慢了,但也得保證質量。
4.關於完形填空,跟高考難易程度相當,只要有時間做都能拿分,關鍵到時老沒時間。
5.關於作文,我簡單提點建議,首先在網上搜點模塊,俯拾皆是,找不到了問我要,然後考前這段時間,最好能練幾篇,通過練把這些模塊內化成自己的。怎麼練?就是你可以找一些真題,最好帶些範文。自己寫一句,就想想模塊中有自己可以用的句子沒,或者就直接看著那些模塊,看哪些句子可以用的上,自己就寫好好再與範文對照一下,看看差距在哪兒,最好也能把範文中的句子據為己有。知道我什麼意思吧?不過這只適合考前較長的時間練習,臨近考試的時候可別這樣練呀!
希望對你有幫助,也祝你順利通過。
④ 求2007年6月大學英語六級聽力原文
Section A Short Conversations 11. W: Jim, you are on the net again? When are you going to get off? It』s the time for the talk show. M: Just a minute, dear. I』m looking at a new jewelry site. I want to make sure I get the right gift for Mum』s birthday. Q: What is the man doing right now? 12. W: I』ve never seen you have such confidence before an exam. M: It』s more than confidence. Right now I feel that if I get less than an A, it』ll be the fault of the exam itself. Q: What does the man mean? 13. W: Just look at this newspaper, nothing but murder, death and war! Do you still believe people are basically good? M: Of course I do. But newspapers hardly ever report stories about peace and generosity. They are not news. Q: What do we learn from the conversation? 14. M: Tom must be joking when he said he plans to sell his shop and go to medical school. W: You are quite right. He is just kidding. He』s also told me time and time again he wished he』d studied for some profession instead of going into business. Q: What will Tom probably do according to the conversation? 15. W: I hear your boss has a real good impression of you and he is thinking about giving you two more days off each month. M: I hope not. I』d rather get more work hours so I can get enough bucks to help out my two kids at college. Q: What does the man truly want? 16. M: I heard you took a trip to Mexico last month. How did you like it? W: Oh, I got sick and tired of hotels and hotel food. So now I understand the saying, 「East, west, home』s best」. Q: What does the woman mean? 17. W: I』m worried about Anna. She is really been depressed lately. All she does is staying in her room all day. M: That sounds serious. She』d better see a psychiatrist at the consoling center. Q: What does the man suggest Anna do? 18. M: I could hardly recognize Sam after he got that new job. He』s always in a suit and a tie now. W: Yeah, he was never like e that at college. Back then he went around in an old T-shirt and jeans. Q: What do the speakers say about Sam? Long conversation 1 M: Hi, Ann, welcome back. How』s your trip to the states? W: Very busy. I had a lot of meetings. So, of course, I didn』t have much time to see New York. M: What a pity. Actually I have a trip there myself next week. W: Do you? Then take my advice. Do the well-being in the air program. It really works. M: Oh, I read about that in a magazine. You say it works? W: Yes. I did the program on the flight to the States. And when I arrived in New York, I didn』t have any problem. No jet leg at all. On the way back I didn』t do it, and I felt terrible. M: You are joking. W: Not at all. It really made a lot of difference. M: Hmm…So, what did you do? W: Well, I didn』t drink any alcohol or coffee and I didn』t eat any meat or rich food. I drink a lot of water and fruit juice and I eat the meals on the well-being menu. They are lighter. They have fish, vegetables and noodles, for example. And I did some of the exercises in the program. M: Exercises? On a plane? W: Yes. I didn』t do many, of course. There isn』t much space on the plane. M: How many passengers did the exercises? W: Not many. M: And how much champagne did they drink? W: A lot. It was more popular than mineral water. M: So, basically it』s a choice. Mineral water and exercises or champagne and jet lag. W: That』s right. It』s a difficult choice. Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard. 19. Why did the woman go to New York? 20. What does the woman say about the well-being in the air program? 21. What did the woman do to follow the well-being menu? 22. What did the woman say about other passengers? Long conversation 2 W: Morning. Can I help you? M: Well, I』m not really sure. I』m just looking. W: I see. Well, there』s plenty to look at again this year. I』m sure you』d have to walk miles to see each stand. M: That』s true. W: Would you like a coffee? Come and sit down for a minute. No obligation. M: Well, that』s very kind of you. But… W: No, please, is this the first year you『ve been to the fair, Mr. …? M: Yes. Johnson. James Johnson. W: My name』s Susan Carter. Are you looking for anything in particular or are you just interested in computers in general? M: Well, actually, I have some specific jobs in mind. I own a small company. We』ve grown quite dramatically over the past 12 months and we really need some technological help to enable us to keep on top of everything. W: What』s your line of business, Mr. Johnson? M: We are a training consultancy. W: I see. And what do you need to keep on top? M: The first thing is correspondence. We have a lot of standard letters and forms. So I suppose we need some kind of word processor. W: Right. Well, that』s no problem. But it may be possible for you to get a system that does a lot of other things in addition to word processing. What might suit you is the MR5000. That』s over there. It』s IBM compatible. M: What about the price? W: Well, the MR5000 costs 1,050 pounds. Software comes free with the hardware. M: Well, I』ll think about it. Thank you. W: Here』s my card. Please feel free to contact me. Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard. 23. Where did the conversation take place? 24. What are the speakers talking about? 25. What is the man』s line of business? Section B Short Passages Passage 1 The New Year always brings with it a cultural tradition of new possibilities. We see it as a chance for renewal. We begin to dream of new possible selves. We design our ideal self or an image that is quite different from what we are now. For some of us, we roll that dreamy film in our heads just because it is the beginning of the New Year, but we are serious about making changes. We just make some half hard resolution and it evaporates after a week or two. The experience makes us less successful and leads us to discount ability to change in the future. It』s not the changes impossible, but it won』t last unless our resolutions are supported with plans for implementation. We have to make our intensions manageable by detailing the specific steps that will carry us to our goal. Say your goal is to lose weight by dieting and cutting off sweets. But one night you just have to have a cookie and you know there is a bag of your favorites in the cupboard. You want one, you eat two, you check the bag and find out that you』ve just shot 132 calories. You say to yourself, 「What the hell. 」 and polish off the whole bag. Then you begin to draw all kinds of unpleasant conclusions about yourself. To protect your sense of yourself, you begin to discount the goal. You may think, 「Well , dieting wasn』t that important to me and I wouldn』t make it anyhow.」 So you』ll abandon the goal and return to your bad habits. Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you』ve just heard: 26: What do people usually wish to do at the beginning of the New Year? 27: How can people turn their New Year』s resolutions into reality? 28: Why does the speaker mention the example of sweets and cookies? Passage 2 25 years ago, Ray Anderson, a single parent with a one-year-old son, witnessed a terrible accident, which took place when the driver of a truck ran a red light and collided it with the car of Sandra Drinkens. The impact of the collision killed Sandra instantly, but her three-month-old daughter was left trapped in the burning car. While others looked on in horror, Anderson jumped out of his vehicle and crawled into the car through the shattered rear window to try to free the infant. Seconds later, the car was enclosed in flames, but to everyone』s amazement, Anderson was able to pull the baby to safety. While the baby was all right, Anderson was seriously injured. Two days later, he died. But his heroic act was published widely in the media. His son was soon adopted by relatives. The most remarkable part of this story unfolded only last week. Karen and her boyfriend Michael were looking through some old boxes when they came across some old newspaper clippings. 「This is me when I was a new born baby. I was rescued from a burning car but my mother died in the accident,』』 explained Karen. Although Michael knew Karen』s mother had died years earlier, he never fully understood the circumstances until he skimmed over the news paper article. To Karen』s surprise, Michael was absorbed in the details of the accident and he began to cry uncontrollably. Then he revealed that the man that pulled Karen from the flames was the father he never knew. The two embraced and shed many tears, recounting stories told to them about their parents. Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you』ve just heard: 29: What happened 25 years ago? 30: What does the speaker say about Michael』s father? 31: Why did Michael cry uncontrollably when he skimmed over the newspaper article?
⑤ 急求英語作文一篇.(四六級水平)
英語作文 英語作文的基本要求:
首先,一個段落必須有一個中心即主題思想,該中心由主題句特別是其中的題旨來表達。整個段落必須緊扣這個主題(stick or hold to the topic),這就是段落的統一性(unity)。其次,一個段落必須有若干推展句,使主題思想得到充分展開,從而給讀者一個完整的感覺,這就是完整性(completeness or adequateness)。再者,一個段落不是雜亂無章的,而是有機的組合,句子的排列順序必須合乎邏輯,從一個句子到另一個句子的過渡必須流暢(smooth),這就是連貫性(coherence)。下面我們就對這三個標准分別加以說明。
1、統一性
一個段落內的各個句子必須從屬於一個中心,任何游離於中心思想之外的句子都是不可取的。請看下例:
Joe and I decided to take the long trip we'd always wanted across the country. We were like young kids buying our camper and stocking it with all the necessities of life. Bella bakes the best rhubarb pie. We started out in early spring from Minneapolis and headed west across the northern part of the country. We both enjoyed those people we met at the trailer park. Joe received a watch at his retirement dinner. To our surprise, we found that we liked the warm southern regions very much, and so we decided to stay here in New Mexico.
本段的主題句是段首句,controlling idea(中心思想)是take the long trip across the country。文中出現兩個irrelevant sentences,一個是Bella bakes the best rhubarb pie,這一段是講的是Joe and I ,中間出現一個Bella是不合適的。還有,Joe received a watch at his retirement dinner這一句更是與主題句不相關。再看一個例子:
My name is Roseanna, and I like to keep physically fit. I used to weigh two hundred pounds, but I joined the YMCA for an exercise class and diet program. In one year I lost eighty pounds. I feel much better and never want to have that much weight on my five-feet frame again. I bought two new suitcases last week. Everyday I practice jogging three miles, swimming fifteen laps, lifting twenty-pound weights and playing tennis for one hour. My mother was a premature baby.
本段的controlling idea 是like to deep physically fit,但段中有兩個irrelevant sentences,一個是I bought two new suitcases last week,另一個是My mother was a premature baby。
從上面兩個例子可以看出,native speakers同樣會造出來irrelevant sentences。卷面上如果這種句子多了,造成偏題或離題,那問題就更嚴重了。
2、完整性
正象我們前面說得那樣,一個段落的主題思想靠推展句來實現,如果只有主題句而沒有推展句來進一步交待和充實,就不能構成一個完整的段落。同樣,雖然有推展句,但主題思想沒有得到相對圓滿的交待,給讀者一種意猶未盡的感覺。這樣的段落也不能完成其交際功能。例如:
Physical work can be a useful form of therapy for a mind in turmoil. Work concentrates your thoughts on a concrete task. Besides, it is more useful to work —— you proce something rather than more anxiety or depression.
本段的主題句是段首句。本段的兩個推展句均不能回答主題句中提出的問題。什麼是「a mind in turmoil」(心境不平靜)Physical work又如何能改變這種情況?為什麼它能起therapy的作用?讀者得不到明確的答案。因此,要達到完整就必須盡可能地簡明。例如:
It is not always true that a good picture is worth a thousand words. Often writing is much clearer than a picture. It is sometimes difficult to figure out what a picture means, but a careful writer can almost always explain it.
段首句所表達的主題思想是一種看法,必須有具體事例加以驗證。上述兩個推展句只是在文字上對主題作些解釋,整個段落內容空洞,簡而不明。如果用一兩個具體的例子的話,就可以把主題解釋清楚了。比如下段:
It is not always true that a picture is worth a thousand words. Sometimes, pictures are pretty useless things. If you can't swim and fall in the river and start gulping water, will you be better off to hold up a picture of yourself drowning, or start screaming "Help"?
3、連貫性(coherence)
連貫性包括意連和形連兩個方面,前者指的是內在的邏輯性,後者指的是使用轉換詞語。當然這兩者常常是不可分割的。只有形連而沒有意連,句子之間就沒有內在的有機的聯系;反之,只有意連而沒有形連,有時行文就不夠流暢。
1)、意連
段落中句子的排列應遵循一定的次序,不能想到什麼就寫什麼。如果在下筆之前沒有構思,邊寫邊想,寫寫停停,那就寫不出一氣呵成的好文章來。下面介紹幾種常見的排列方式。
A.按時間先後排列(chronological arrangement)
We had a number of close calls that day. When we rose, it was obviously late and we had to hurry so as not to miss breakfast; we knew the dining room staff was strict about closing at nine o'clock. Then, when we had been driving in the desert for nearly two hours —— it must have been close to noon —— the heat nearly hid us in; the radiator boiled over and we had to use most of our drinking water to cool it down. By the time we reached the mountain, it was our o'clock and we were exhausted. Here, judgement ran out of us and we started the tough climb to the summit, not realizing that darkness came suddenly in the desert. Sure enough, by six we were struggling and Andrew very nearly went down a steep cliff, dragging Mohammed and me along with him. By nine, when the wind howled across the flat ledge of the summit, we knew as we shivered together for warmth that it had not been our lucky day.
本段從「rose」(起床)寫起,然後是吃早餐(「not to miss breakfast」, 「closing at nine o'clock」),然後是「close to noon」,一直寫到這一天結束(「By nine——」)。
B. 按位置遠近排列(spatial arrangement)。例如:
From a distance, it looked like a skinny tube, but as we got closer, we could see it flesh out before our eyes. It was tubular, all right, but fatter than we could see from far away. Furthermore, we were also astonished to notice that the building was really in two parts: a pagoda sitting on top of a tubular one-story structure. Standing ten feet away, we could marvel at how much of the pagoda was made up of glass windows. Almost everything under the wonderful Chinese roof was made of glass, unlike the tube that it was sitting on, which only had four. Inside, the tube was gloomy, because of the lack of light. Then a steep, narrow staircase took us up inside the pagoda and the light changed dramatically. All those windows let in a flood of sunshine and we could see out for miles across the flat land.
本段的寫法是由遠及近,從遠處(「from a distance」)寫起,然後「get closer」,再到(「ten feet away」),最後是「inside the pagoda」……當然,按位置遠近來寫不等於都是由遠及近。根據需要,也可以由近及遠,由表及裡等等。
C. 按邏輯關系排列(logical arrangement)
a. 按重要性順序排列(arrangement in order of importance)
If you work as a soda jerker, you will, of course, not need much skill in expressing yourself to be effective. If you work on a machine, your ability to express yourself will be of little importance. But as soon as you move one step up from the bottom, your effectiveness depends on your ability to reach others through the spoken or the written word. And the further away your job is from manual work, the larger the organization of which you are an employee, the more important it will be that you know how to convey your thoughts in writing or speaking. In the very large business organization, whether it is the government, the large corporation, or the Army, this ability to express oneself is perhaps the most important of all the skills a man can possess.
這一段談的是表達能力,它的重要性與職業,身份有關,從「not need much skill」或「of little importance」到「more important」,最後是「most important」。
b.由一般到特殊排列(general-to-specific arrangement)
If a reader is lost, it is generally because the writer has not been careful enough to keep him on the path. This carelessness can take any number of forms. Perhaps a sentence is so excessively cluttered that the reader, hacking his way through the verbiage, simply doesn't know what it means. Perhaps a sentence has been so shoddily constructed that the reader could read it in any of several ways. Perhaps the writer has switched tenses, or has switched pronouns in mid-sentence, so the reader loses track of when the action took place or who is talking. Perhaps sentence B is not logical sequel to sentence A —— the writer, in whose head the connection is clear, has not bothered to provide the missing link. Perhaps the writer has used an important word incorrectly by not taking the trouble to look it up. He may think that "sanguine" and "sanguinary" mean the same thing, but the difference is a bloody big one. The reader can only infer what the writer is trying to imply.
這一段談的是a writer's carelessness,先給出一個general statement作為主題句,然後通過5個 」perhaps」加以例證。
c. 由特殊到一般排列(specific-to-general arrangement)
I do not understand why people confuse my Siamese cat, Prissy, with the one I had several years ago, Henry. The two cats are only alike in breed. Prissy, a quiet, feminine feline, loves me dearly but not possessively. She likes to keep her distance from people, exert her independence and is never so rude as to beg, lick, or sniff unceremoniously. Her usual posture is sitting upright, eyes closed, perfectly still. Prissy is a very proper cat. Henry, on the other hand, loved me dearly but possessively. He was my shadow from morning till night. He expected me to constantly entertain him. Henry never cared who saw him do anything, whether it was decorous or not, and he usually offended my friends in some way. The cat made himself quite comfortable, on the top of the television, across stranger's feet or laps, in beds, drawers, sacks, closets, or nooks. The difference between them is imperceptible to strangers.
本段的主題句是段首句,它僅提出一個問題:為什麼兩只貓會被搞混。然後對兩者進行比較,末句才下結論。
2)、形連
行文的邏輯性常常要靠適當的轉換詞語及其他手段來實現。請讀下面這一段文字並找出文中用以承上啟下的詞語:
Walter's goal in life was to become a successful surgeon. First, though, he had to get through high school, so he concentrated all his efforts on his studies —— in particular, biology, chemistry, and math. Because he worked constantly on these subjects, Walter became proficient in them; however, Walter forgot that he needed to master other subjects besides those he had chosen. As a result, ring his junior year of high school, Walter failed both English and Latin. Consequently, he had to repeat these subjects and he was almost unable to graate on schele. Finally, on June 6, Walter achieved the first step toward realizing his goal.
本文中起承上啟下的詞語有兩種,一種是轉換詞語(transitional words or phrases),另一種是起轉換作用的其他連接手段(linking devices)。前者依次有:first, though, so, in particular, and, because, however, besides, as a result, both…and, consequently, and, finally.後者依次是:he, he, his, his, he, these, them, he, those, his, he, these, his. 本段中共有詞彙105個,所使用的轉換詞語及其他連接用語共26個詞,約占該段總詞彙量的四分之一。由此可見,掌握好transitions不僅對行文的流(smoothness)有益,而且對於學生在半個小時內寫120個詞也是不無好處的。
一個段落里如果沒有transitions也就很難有coherence了.我們看下面一個例子:
Speaking and writing are different in many ways. Speech depends on sounds. Writing uses written symbols. Speech developed about 500 000 years ago. Written language is a recent development. It was invented only about six thousand years ago. Speech is usually informal. The word choice of writing is often relatively formal. Pronunciation and accent often tell where the speaker is from. Pronunciation and accent are ignored in writing. A standard diction and spelling system prevails in the written language of most countries. Speech relies on gesture, loudness, and rise and fall of the voice. Writing lacks gesture, loudness and the rise and fall of the voice. Careful speakers and writers are aware of the differences.
本段中除了第6句開頭出現一個起過渡作用的」it」之外,沒有使用其他的過渡詞語.這樣,文中出現許多重復的詞語,全段讀起來也顯得生硬而不自然。如果加上必要的過渡詞語來修飾的話,這一段就成了下面一個流暢連貫的段落:
Speaking and writing are different in many ways. Speech depends on sounds; writing, on the other hand, uses written symbols. Speech was developed about 500 000 years ago, but written language is a recent development, invented only about six thousand years ago. Speech is usually informal, while the word choice of writing, by contrast, is often relatively formal. Although pronunciation and accent often tell where the speaker is from, they are ignored in wiring because a standard diction and spelling system prevails in most countries. Speech relies on gesture, loudness, and the rise and fall of the voice, but writing lacks these features. Careful speakers and writers are aware of the differences.
4、有損連貫性的幾種情況:
考生在寫作中經常出現下面幾種錯誤:
1、不必要的改變時態,比如:
In the movie, Robert Redford was a spy. He goes to his office where he found everybody dead. Other spies wanted to kill him, so he takes refuge with Julie Christie. At her house, he had waited for the heat to die down, but they come after him anyway.
2、不必要的改變單復數,比如:
Everybody looks for satisfaction in his life. They want to be happy. But if he seeks only pleasure in the short run, the person will soon run out of pleasure and life will catch up to him. They need to pursue the deeper pleasure of satisfaction in work and in relationships.
3、不必要的改變人稱,比如:
Now more than ever, parents need to be in touch with their children's activities because modern life has the tendency to cause cleavages in the family. You need to arrange family like it so that family members will do things together and know one another. You need to give up isolated pleasures of your own and realize that parents have a set of obligations to sponsor togetherness and therefore sponsor knowledge.
因此寫作中,一定要注意時態,人稱以及數的變化是否正確,要注意保持一致。
英語作文的書寫格式
英文書寫應符合書寫規范,英文字母要寫清楚、寫整齊、寫美觀,字母的大小和字母之間的距離要勻稱。書寫應做到字形秀麗漂亮,通篇勻稱和諧。
寫英文字母要掌握正確筆順。如字母i,應該先寫下面的部分,然後再打點。有的學生卻按寫漢字的習慣從上到下寫,寫快了,就會把點和下面的十筆連在量起,顯得十分別扭。字形t應為兩筆。不少人卻將兩筆合成一筆,看上去不像t,倒像l或是e,難以辨認。另外,把r寫成v,把q寫成把g,把k寫成h等等,都是中學生書寫中常見的毛病。
不少人在四線三格的練習紙上書寫尚有規矩,能按字母的占格、高低和大小要求書寫,但在白紙或橫線紙上書寫,卻顯得十分幼稚拙劣。字母或跳上跳下,或一律寫成同一高度,占上中兩格的字母與佔中下兩格的字母完全沒有高低之別。這些現象都要防止。
另外,書寫時還要注意詞與詞之間要保持一定的距離,不能緊靠在一起。字母之間的連寫也應該按照習慣,不能隨意亂來。
在一篇字數有限的作文里,我們還要注意盡量不把一個單詞拆開移行。萬一要移行,則必須以音節為單位進行,如revolution這個詞,依照音節移行的原則可以按re-,revo-, revolu-這幾種方法移行。在移行時,我們還應特別注意以下幾點:
1. 單音節詞不能移行,即使是字母較多的單音節詞,如through等也不能例外。
2.縮略詞如Mr.,Dr.等不能和後面的名字拆開移行。
縮略的專用名詞如U.K.,U.S.A等也不能拆開移行。
3.時間、量度及貨幣單位應視為一個整體;不能分開移行。如;
11:00P.M.應寫在一行內,不能將11:00和P.M.分開移行;寫38℃時,不能將38和℃分開移行。
4.由「年、月、日」表示的日期,如果必須分開移行只能將「月、日」與「年」分開。如January 6,1980不能將January和6分開移行,但可以把January 6,和1980分成兩行。
5.含雙寫輔音字母的單詞,在移行時要將輔音字母拆開。如better可拆成better,necessary可拆成necessary。
但如果雙寫輔音字母屬於詞根,後面又加了後綴,就不能將兩個輔音字母拆開。如drill加上-ing後構成了drilling,就不可以將它拆成成dril-ling,而只能拆為drilling。
例文:
1.寵物:
A Talkative Parrot
A lady worked in a company. There were a lot of shops on her way to work. One morning, when she was walking to work, she passed by a new pet shop. She was so excited when she saw a parrot sitting beside the door. She really loved birds.
When she stopped to look at the handsome bird, it said to her, "Hey, lady, you are really ugly.」
This made the lady very angry. She quickly left the shop and went to work. On her way home, she passed the same pet shop again. This time the parrot saw her again, it said immediately:
"Hey lady, you are really ugly!"
The lady tried to control herself. She walked to the shopkeeper and told him that if the parrot said it again, she would have the police come and take it away. "I'm so sorry, madam. I promise it won't happen again," the shopkeeper said.
The next morning, when the lady walked past the pet shop, she pretended that she didn』t see it. But the parrot saw her at once and said to her quickly, "Hey lady."
She stopped and looked at the bird coldly. "Yes?" she answered in an angry voice.
The bird, sitting up straight and smiling at her, said, "You know."
2.人物:
Elizabeth Bennet (伊麗莎白)
The second daughter in the Bennet family, and the most intelligent and quick-witted, Elizabeth is the protagonist of Pride and Prejudice and one of the most well-known female characters in English literature. Her admirable qualities are numerous—she is lovely, clever, and, in a novel defined by dialogue, she converses as brilliantly as anyone. Her honesty, virtue, and lively wit enable her to rise above the nonsense and bad behavior that pervade her class-bound and often spiteful society. Nevertheless, her sharp tongue and tendency to make hasty judgments often lead her astray; Pride and Prejudice is essentially the story of how she (and her true love, Darcy) overcome all obstacles—including their own personal failings—to find romantic happiness. Elizabeth must not only cope with a hopeless mother, a distant father, two badly behaved younger siblings, and several snobbish, antagonizing females, she must also overcome her own mistaken impressions of Darcy, which initially lead her to reject his proposals of marriage. Her charms are sufficient to keep him interested, fortunately, while she navigates familial and social turmoil. As she graally comes to recognize the nobility of Darcy』s character, she realizes the error of her initial prejudice against him.
Bennet家庭的第二個女兒和最聰明和機智,伊麗莎白是自豪感和偏見的主演和其中一個在英國文學的最知名的女性角色。 她令人敬佩的質量是numerous—she是可愛的,聰明,並且,在對話定義的小說,她一樣精采地交談象任何人。 她的誠實、美德和活潑的機智使她在胡話之上起來,並且彌漫她的壞行為類跳起和經常惡意的社會。 然而,她的伶俐的口舌和傾向經常做倉促評斷帶領她迷路; 自豪感和偏見本質上是故事她(和她真實的愛, Darcy)怎樣克服他們自己的個人failings—to發現浪漫幸福的所有obstacles—including。 伊麗莎白必須不僅應付一個絕望的母親,一個遙遠的父親,二非常表現的更加年輕的兄弟姐妹,並且幾位勢利,對抗的女性,她必須也克服Darcy她自己的錯誤印象,最初帶領她拒絕他的求婚。 而她駕駛家族和社會動亂,她魅力是充足保持他感興趣,幸運地。 當她逐漸來認可Darcy』s字元的貴族,她體會她對他的最初的偏見錯誤。
⑥ 新東方 大學英語六級美文晨讀100篇 MP3資料
順便提一下,我現在學的ABC天卞英語的助教和我提到 若想征服英語應該是不費力地。一定要有一個適宜的研習情境和實習口語對象,這取決於外教資質,標准口音(建議找歐美外教)很重要 持續逐日口語學習,1v1家教式教學才能夠有很.好.的進步效率;學習後同樣要回放復習課堂音頻 更可以加深印象 不過實在沒有人可以指導的環境 最好能上 VOA或BBC取得課外教材學習 多說多練迅速的口語就培養起來,整體效果肯定會最佳的;星火》和《王長喜》或者封面那是大青蛙的那個這幾個系列的四六級的輔導書吧~~首先,你要買本四級英語單詞,不是一味的要你背,放在床頭就好,不必每天使勁背,每天晚上睡覺之前,剛躺到床上一定睡不著,看幾個單詞正好睏了~~推薦,你買新東方的詞根記憶那本,很容易記其次,培養聽力和語感,買本星火的四級晨讀英語美文,存到MP里,每天從寢室到教室這段路程應該可以聽篇美文,開始可能你大部分會聽不懂,沒關系堅持聽下去,等聽-編後對照書看,然後在聽,你會發現%都聽懂了~~預感聽力OK 了還有必須做題,開始的時候研究真題,星火 王長喜的都可以,十年的真題,都要研究透,樓上的同學說的很對,不認識的單詞,挑出來,記在本子上~~背下來~真題看過後,買本模擬題,按照正規考試時間做,看看正確率,通常王長喜的比真題略難,星火的比真題略簡單,你自己選擇,買模擬題,一般都贈送高頻詞彙 (這個必須要看,因為這都是精華單詞呀,不背你就傻了)押題的作文,這個也得看,不是要背,而是明白給你一個話題,你該怎麼去寫,開頭結尾,一定要注意~應試錦囊,這個是告訴你答題的方法,簡單看看既可語法,看看高中的重要語法,足夠了~語法題相對教少的~改錯 完形 翻譯沒有時間不必專項練習,做好真題及模擬題,應該夠用了~其實都有規律的,做完10套題你自己就能總結規律了 ~作文要被一些好的開頭結尾,和連詞部分,一般都沒有問題的~~另外從網上搜了一個輔導老師講的復習方法,你參考看下吧~對大多數考生來說,從頭復習語法、背誦單詞已是「遠水解不了近渴」。不過掌握一些應試技巧還是有必要的,有些看似不起眼的小細節,往往會決定考試成敗 [聽力] 精聽VS泛聽 准備四級聽力,要精聽,不要泛聽。這是第一個需要明確的問題:精聽歷年四級考題。雖然從宏觀上來看,任何聽力資料都是有益的,但是鑒於有限的可利用時間,復習資料的選擇一定要有針對性。因為要攻克四級考試,一個與提高能力同樣重要(而且簡單得多)的任務是迅速地熟悉考題。但短期之內很難提高聽力水平是個不爭的事實,我們沒有必要挑戰人類大腦的生理極限。幸運的是我們的大腦在它的生理極限。內可以實現「熟能生巧」。這個變數在相同的時間內可以更大地影響結果,最直接地體現在考試分數上。雖然真題的磁帶只有六,七盤,而且是考試的原速帶,即每個考題之間有十五秒的間隔。這樣算起來,真正的有聲資源只相當於四盤磁帶。但是,這四盤磁帶對於我們把握四級考試的脈捕已經足夠了 [詞彙] 注重積累 大學英語四級考試的詞彙與結構重在對英語基礎知識的考察,每次0道題,計1分。其難點在於:比例雖小,知識點卻多而復雜,令大多數考生食之無味,棄之可惜。不過,掌握適當的復習方法肯定是行之有效的: 1. 精研歷年真題。切勿簡單的認為考過的題毫無介值可言,恰恰相反,因為四級考試是一項標准化的命題考試,某一種題型如果特別有針對性,或者其答案被多數考生選錯,那就證明該題的效度和信度較高,重考的幾率相對來說也就大一些。例如:0年1月題和年月的題;年1月的題和年1月的題;年1月的題和000年月的題等等 . 熟悉常考的語法難點和詞彙題型。這一點將在下文詳細論述 做題的關鍵是每一題必須能從原文中找到出處,也就是能夠證明這道題正確答案的部分,千萬不要憑印象 [閱讀] 把握細節,養成習慣 1.首先精研歷年真題 .重視閱讀理解中的細節性問題、 .養成適合自己的閱讀習慣 .作真題,提高考試閱讀能力 [完形填空] 綜合全文,著眼細節 1.對於首句應該給與足夠的重視,因為往往它就是中心句或是引導句,它的時態往往決定了全文的時態,所以多花一點時間看首句是值得的 .然後以句子為單位一句一句地讀,一句一句地填空,主要考慮語法、句意、邏輯和上下文聯系。暫時填不出來的就空在那裡 .最後通讀一遍,完成沒有填的空,再看看填的順不順,不順的地方大膽修改 [英譯漢] 掌握原則按部就 英譯漢首先要掌握個原則:一、翻譯時既要忠實於原文,又要符合漢語的習慣;二、翻譯不可太拘泥,否則很容易因死守原文語言形式而損害了原文思想內容,好的譯文應該是形式與內容的統一;三、能夠直譯盡量不意譯;四、翻譯的過程應該是先理解後表達 具體如下:首先,英文段落的首句一般為topicsentence,然後展開說明。展開的寫法有多種,可分可總,可下定義,可同義重復,可以代詞復指等。利用這一技巧,先通讀全文,便能更好理解文章的意思,把握段與段之間的關系,在翻譯時就能在上下文中確定詞義,譯。正確理解原文後,還要通過適當的翻譯技巧用規范的漢語表達出來。這些技巧有: (1) 增詞法。根據需要增加一些詞語,如名詞等 () 減詞法。根據漢語習慣,刪去一些詞 () 肯否表達法。原文為肯定句,譯成漢語是為增強修飾效果,可以譯為否定句。反之亦然 () 變換法。名詞譯成動詞或動詞轉譯成名詞等 () 分合法。一個長句可分成若幹部分來譯,或者把原文的幾個簡單句用一個句子表達出來 () 省略法:兩種語言由於存在差異,表達時不可能總是對等,經常可以省略一些詞和句子成分,如英語中的冠詞漢語里沒有,譯時可以省略 最後一定要核對原文是否准確、通順,還要注意關鍵詞的采分點 [寫作] 藉助閱讀善打草稿 寫作文時要放鬆情緒,消除恐懼感,必要時可藉助深呼吸來緩解緊張的心情 試卷一、二(作文在試卷)同時發下來,應在做完聽力部分後,迅速地看一下作文題,讓其在大腦中留有一席之地,這樣便於在做詞彙、閱讀時隨時發現寫作可借用的詞彙句型而不至於在寫作時,大腦一片空白,無從下手 一定要認真審題,弄清文章及各段主題,實現由提綱到主題句的轉換。可以打一下草稿:擺事實,理清思路,從易於表達,且論證豐富的觀點入手,不局限於一種看法、 一種表達法或一種句式 具體寫作時最好分段來寫,各段之間空二至三行,以利於隨時增減或刪改。而且字跡要工整,卷面要保持清潔,給判卷人一個好印象。寫完後仔細檢查作文中用詞、句法方面有無不準確的地方;句式有無變化;句與句之間,段與段之間有無合適的連接及過渡等. 最後,還要有一個良好的應試心態,從容面對! 單詞是最重要的,六級對單詞量要求很大。比較難記,而且時間也很緊張了,我覺得方法問題很重要,單純的記單詞確實很不好記憶,我建議你在做題過程中背,做模擬題,這個題不要做完了看看對錯就算了,一定要每道題都分析一下,包括各種題型中的單詞,不要怕自己做的題少,要把一套題做精了 慢慢你會發現,很多詞是經常出現在閱讀裡面的。而且級常用的詞也有個范圍,這樣可以多記住一些 還有記憶不是一次就能會的,做完一套題所記的單詞要當天背兩次,第二天背一次,隔幾天再背一次,別太著急了!! 這樣多做題,做精了,提高會很快的 祝你成功吧 學好外語的十條方法 1.學習不中斷,哪怕每天擠出10分鍾也可以,早晨則是大好時機 .學厭了可變換一下學習方式或形式 .不要脫離下下文孤立地死記硬背 .隨時記下並背熟那些常用的句型 .盡可能「心譯」接觸的東西,如一閃而過的廣告,偶爾聽到的話語等 .要記住那些肯定是正確無誤的東西 .抄錄和記憶句型與慣用語時,要用單數第一人稱 .外語好比碉堡,必須同時從四面八方圍攻,如讀、聽廣播、看外語電影、聽外語講座、攻讀課本等 .要敢於說外語,不要怕出錯誤,要請別人糾正,不要難為情,更不要泄氣 10.要堅信自己一定能夠達到目的,堅信自己有堅強的毅力和學好外語的才能。祝你早日通過CET
