　　(5)B读写任务（共1小题，满分25分）

　　阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

　　No wonder English poses (构成) such a challenge to non-native speakers. This most global of languages has more words than any other, over 1 million according to the Global Language Monitor. Out of this number, the average American college student has mastered between 8, 000—15, 000.

　　Realizing that words are the building blocks of language, many Chinese students try hard to catch up. They make out long lists of words—often in alphabetical order—and simply memorize their definitions(释义) and Chinese meanings.

　　The bad news is that definition memorization does them little good when it comes to college entrance tests like the SATs. For these tests, a student needs to understand, not simply parrot words studied.

　　The good news is that there are better ways to build an academic English vocabulary. One of them is:

　　Vocabulary learning system

　　The first thing to do is to develop an organized, but easy means of collecting and learning new words. We recommend a card system that includes the following information:

　　Word-Simple Definition in English--Phrase or Sentence-Related Words-Synonyms (同义词) and Antonyms (反义词) - with a Chinese translation on the reverse (背面) of the card.

　　The advantage of this system is that with a single card, a student can learn not just one word but a group of related words.

　　Keep your cards on a detachable (可分离的) metal ring, so you can carry them around and add to your collection daily.

　　【写作内容】

　　1. 以约30个词概括以上短文的主要内容;

　　2. 然后以约120个词以“有什么记单词的好办法? ”为主题写一篇短文，并包括如下要点：

　　1）举例说明你的英语老师教给你某种记忆单词的好方法；

　　2）说明好的记忆单词方法的重要性;

　　3）为应对高考你将如何加强单词记忆？

　　【写作要求】

　　1. 你可以使用实例或其他论述方法支持你的论点，也可以参照阅读材料的内容，但不得直接引用阅读材料中的句子;

　　2. 作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称。

　　【评分标准】概括准确，语言规范，内容合适，语篇连贯。

　　In the passage the author tells us some bad and poor ways of memorizing English vocabulary and advises a vocabulary learning system, which enables students to learn a group of related words.

　　Since I entered school, my teachers have told me a lot of methods of memorizing English vocabulary. Association is a method with which we can think about a word from one to another. For example we want to memorize the word “tree”, do not remember t-r-e-e so far. We should enlarge it to the following: stick, branch, trunk, stem, leaf, shoot, root, in the tree, on the tree, pine tree, apple tree, etc.. By this means, we can associate many separate words and expressions, and the result will be much better.

　　If we have mastered good methods of learning English words, we can enlarge a greater number of them by using less time, and thus get twice the result with half the effort. We can also improve the learning efficiency.

　　As a senior 3 student, in order to cope with the college entrance exam, I need to strengthen the memorization of English vocabulary since we can easily forget what we have learned. I will try to use all sorts of methods to help myself to memorize all the required vocabulary. Only in this way can I get a high mark in the college entrance exam.

　　Ⅶ.阅读理解

　　My father was 44 and knew he wasn’t going to make it to 45.He wrote me a letter and hoped that something in it would help me for the rest of my life.

　　Since the day I was 12 and first read his letter，some of his words have lived in my heart.One part always stands out.“Right now，you are pretending to be a time­killer.But I know that one day，you will do something great that will set you among the very best.”Knowing that my dad believed in me gave me permission to believe in myself.“You will do something great.” He didn’t know what that would be，and neither did I，but at times in my life when I’ve felt proud of myself，I remember his words and wish he were here，so I could ask，“Is this what you were talking about，Dad？Should I keep going？”

　　A long way from 12 now，I realize he would have been proud when I made any progress.Lately，though，I’ve come to believe he would want me to move on to what comes next：to be proud of and believe in，somebody else.It’s time to start writing my own letters to my children.Our children look to us with the same unanswered question we had.Our kids don’t hold back because they’re afraid to fail.They’re only afraid of failing us.They don’t worry about being disappointed.Their fear—as mine was until my father’s letter—is of being a disappointment.

　　Give your children permission to succeed.They’re waiting for you to believe in them.I always know my parents love me.But trust me.That belief will be more complete，that love will be more real，and their belief in themselves will be greater if you write the words on their hearts：“Don’t worry；you’ll do something great.”Not having that blessing from their parents may be the only thing holding them back.

　　1．We learn from the text that the author________.

　　A．lost his father when he was young

　　B．worked hard before he read his father’s letter

　　C．asked his father’s permission to believe in himself

　　D．knew exactly what great thing his father wanted him to do

　　A．Children need their parents’ letters.

　　B．Children are afraid to be disappointed.

　　D．His father’s letter removed his fear of failing his parents.

　　3．Which of the following is TRUE of the author?

　　A．He got no access to success.

　　B．He wrote back to his father at 12.

　　C．He was sure his parents loved him.

　　D．He once asked his father about the letter.

　　Ⅷ.任务型阅读/任务型读写

　　The e­book is a downloadable book that can be put right onto your e­reader, certain cellphones and computers. There are websites that sell e­books where you can buy them and load them right onto whatever device you choose. The e­book makes it possible to take reading with you, without the mess of carrying dozens of books around with you.

　　However, not all book authors are okay with having their books in digital format. The creator of Harry Potter says that her books will never be an e­book, and many just like her feel the same way. However, there are lots of authors who absolutely love the idea and feel it’s the next step to keep books alive.

　　The e­book can be loaded onto an e­reader which is a mini­device that is slim and small just like a cellphone. It usually has a touch pad screen and can hold a few hundred books. That’s perfect news for people who travel on planes or go on holidays and would love to take a collection with them but wouldn’t carry fifty hard covers.

　　The other great thing about e­readers is that you can read e­books on them quickly and there’s no need for two hands to hold the book and turn the page; it is more convenient for people to read it. Most of them also have a night light, so if you want to read at night but don’t want a big light on to wake your partner, the e­reader is ideal.

　　Websites that sell e­books have their sites looking just like ordinary book store websites. There is a list for best­sellers and a new release (发行) section. There is also clearance e­books on sale and gift certificates available to give to someone who also downloads e­books. They seem to cost the same amount of money as buying a paperback book.

　　Title The E­books

　　Definition of e­books Downloadable books which can be put right onto e­readers, 1.________

　　and computers.

　　Book authors’2.________ towards e­books ●Some 3.________ to have their books in digital format.

　　●Others think that the digital format can keep books 4.________.

　　5.________________ of e­readers ●Be a slim and small mini­device.

　　●Usually have a touch pad screen.

　　●Be able to 6.________ a few hundred books.

　　语篇定位

　　父亲的一封信感动了作者好多年，它让“我们”知道了父母对子女的殷切期盼！作者也从12岁的儿童和成年人两个不同的视角来看待这一社会性问题——父母对子女的期望应该是怎样的。作者更强调了父母在这一问题上对孩子的重要影响。

　　1．A　[细节推断题。由第一段中的“My father was 44 and knew he wasn’t going to...”和第二段中的“Since the day I was 12 and...”可知作者是12岁时丧父。B项应改为worked hard after he read his father’s letter；C项错误，父亲的期盼和鼓励并非是出自作者的要求；D项中knew exactly不对，作者当时只是从一个12岁孩子的角度感受到了父亲的心意，而非洞悉一切，这从文章中的“He didn’t know what that would be，and neither did I，...”可知。]

　　2．D　[细节理解题。由第三段中的“Our children look to us with the same unanswered...”可知A项错，孩子们真正需要的不是一封具体的信，而是一种信任、一种鼓励、一种理念；B项与“Their fear—as mine was until my father’s letter—is of being a disappointment.”相矛盾，孩子们怕的是令父母失望；C项是对文章最后一句话的误解。]

　　3．C　[推理判断题。由最后一段中的“But trust me.That belief will be more complete，that love will be more real，and their belief in themselves will be greater if you write the words on their hearts...”可知，作者深知父亲的关爱对他的影响之大。]

　　4．D　[主旨归纳题。由最后两段内容可知，作者重在强调父母让孩子明白自己对子女的期望、赞赏和关爱是极其重要的，而不是着重于描述孩子们的想法或解决孩子们的疑问，也没有强调交流的重要性。]

　　Ⅷ.1.cellphones　2.attitudes　3.refuse　4.alive5．Advantages/Benefits　6.hold　7.without

　　8．convenient　9.enable/get　10.downloading
