21、些负面的状况,并不排除广告中介绍的物品也却有奇效的。 第二段有一个总领句,即“Sometimes advertising in intentionally misleading.”之后列举了一个例子,来说明确实有一些广告是故意误导消费者的。 那么第三段应该是怎样的内容呢?我们先不急于判断,把最后一段内容阅读完毕再来判断。最后一段的内容是讲述,每一个消费者必须去估量自身的情况,去考虑想要购买的产品是否值得购买。广告固然是为了吸引消费者,但毕竟消费者自己有最终的决定权。这可算是一个小小的文章总结。 那么我们回过头来再去猜想第三段应该怎样补写。很自然,在经过文章开头的总领之后,加之已经介绍过了广告的
22、负面结果,最终又对消费者的购物目的做了总结,第三段的内容应该是介绍一些有关广告的正面效应来和上下文衔接。段首应该有一个总领句,介绍广告也确实有积极的方面。为了和上段的结构照应,也应该列举一个例子来说明为什么也会有这样的正面效果。这样文章就被补写完整了。二、B(总题数:1,分数:20.00)2.

34、rds tests 1. No worry about a single test 2. Using test to make new knowledge permanent . Discovering some other ways to improve your grade)解析:解析 作文提纲分两种,即“句子提纲”(sentence outline)和“论点提纲”(topic outline)。本题正是要求学生对该文章做“论点提纲”的书写。因此首先要掌握论点提纲具有怎样的特点,否则便无从下笔。从教材我们可得知,句子提纲中的每句话都必须是完整的,而论点提纲中的每句话都可以是短语,也可以是从
35、句,甚至单词。两种提纲无优劣之分,只是看题目要求、主题需要或依据个人爱好而定。例如该题就要求使用论点提纲来列,因此要注意论点提纲的形式和特点。 就本题而言,纵览全文可以看出,该文章是讲述中等智商的学生如何在不做额外功课的情况下取得更好的成绩,做一名上等生。即“How to be a top student for those average students with average intelligence?”在列举提纲时,要把握整体层次。该文章明显分为三个层次,即,提出问题,解决问题列举,其他可行方法。所以总的提纲可列为: 1. Students of average intelligen
36、ce becoming top students without additional work 2. Having six ways to achieve this goal 3. Discovering some other ways to improve your grade 文章在提出问题之后,列举了六点如何提高成绩的方法,如认真计划时间、找到适合学习的地方等,都以序号的形式叙述。在解决问题的六个小点当中,又有具体的分层。拿第一小点为例:作者叙述过“Plan your time carefully”后,紧接着就用更具体的方法阐述如何仔细计划时间。经阅读各句之间的关系分析后可得知,这一点
37、的内容又可分为两个小层次,即make a list of weekly tasks; make a schedule or chart。全段内容都是围绕这两点展开。由此不难得出,第一小点的提纲可列为: A. Planning your time carefully 1. Making a list of weekly tasks 2. Making a schedule 以下五点均按此思维模式,此处不再赘述。提纲可列为: B. Finding a good place to study 1. Choosing a comfortable place 2. Choosing a place wi

39、est 2. Using test to make new knowledge permanent 最后,避免把问题叙述得绝对化,作者又阐明还有其他方法可提高分数,即上文中的第 3 点。三、B(总题数:1,分数:60.00)3.Describe a process which you know about.(分数:60.00)_正确答案:( How to Post a ParcelIt is necessary for a person to know how to post a parcel, since almost everyone has relatives and friends l
