Ⅳ.阅读理解
The advantage and disadvantage of a large population have long been a subject of discussion.It has been argued that the supply of good land is limited.To feed a large population,inferior land must be cultivated and the good land worked intensively.Thus each person produced less and this means a lower average income than could be obtained with a small population.Other economists have argued that a large population
gives more scope for specialization and the development of facilities such as ports,roads and railways,which are not likely to be built unless there is a big demand to justify them.
One of the difficulties on carrying out world birth control program lies in the fact that official attitudes to population growth vary from country to country,depending on the level of industrial development and the availability of food and raw materials.In the developing countries where a vastly expanded population is pressing hard upon the limits of food,space and natural resources,it will be first concern of government to place a limit on the birthrate whatever the consequences may be.In a highly industrialized society the problem may be more complex.A decreasing birthrate may lead to unemployment because it results in a declining market for manufactured goods.When the pressure of population on housing declines,prices also decline and the building industry is weakened.
Faced with considerations such as these,the government of a developed country may well prefer to see slowly increasing population,rather than one which is stable or declines.
1.Small population may mean________.
A.higher productivity,but a lower average income
B.lower productivity,but a higher average income
C.lower productivity and a lower average income
D.higher productivity and a higher average income
解析:从文章第一段To feed...Other economists...说明人口多专业化设施发展范围大,即生产发展程度高。人口少则反之。
答案:B
2.According to the passage,a large population will provide a chance for developing________.
A.agriculture
B.transport system
C.industry
D.national economy
解析:文中第一段最后一句,说明人口多会促使港口、公路、铁路公共事业发展。
答案:B
3.In a developed country,people will perhaps go out of work if the birthrate________.
A.goes up
B.goes down
C.remains stable
D.is out of control
解析:答案:B
4.It is no easy job to carry out a general plan for birth control throughout the world because ________.
A.there are too many underdeveloped countries in the world
B.underdeveloped countries have a low level of industrial development.
C.different governments have different views of the question
D.even developed countries have complex problems
解析:
答案:C

每天最高效的学习时间你抓住了吗
我们说利用时间,并非是学习的时间越长,学习到的东西就越多,学习的效果就越好。有人统计,连续36小时,只睡3小时,工作效率反而为原先的55%;连续工作44小时,只睡4小时,工作效率更是下降为充足睡眠时的36%。古人悬梁刺股,虽说让人敬佩,然而细细想来,这种做法却是愚蠢的,因为这样做违背了人的生理规律,长此下去是非常有害的。
人脑活动的效率在一天内是有规律的,不同的时间具有不同的效能,要善于抓住高效时间。所谓高效时间,就是一天中思维能力、活动能力最旺盛的时间。
苏联科学家格雷斌指出:人体的生理功能在一昼夜内有五个增长时间和五个下降时间。在生理功能增长时间内,工作效率最高,生病可能性减小。在生理功能下降时间内,人一般想休息,此时容易发生事故,心肌梗塞和高血压病发作的几率增加。根据这个实验,人们应当在生理功能增长时间内从事最重要、最紧张的工作,这样工作的效率就会有所提高。
英国伦敦大学教授麦伯逊在《怎样学习》一文中,用曲线图表示一个人一天中学习效果与学习时间的关系。在前面5个小时里,随着时间的延长,学到的东西越多;第5小时是学习效果最佳时间;5小时后,随着时间的延续,学习效率越来越差,最后几乎等于零。
科学家经过多年研究证明,人一天24小时工作有高潮和低谷。对于大多数人来说,上午8~10点,下午3~6点是效率最高的时间;晚上读书8~10点是高效时间;上午8点大脑具有严谨、周密的思考力,下午2点思考能力最敏捷,晚上8点记忆力最强,而中午1点左右是脑力和体力最差的时间,也是学习效率最低的时间。
一般来说,早晨是学习的最好时光,中国有句谚语“一年之计在于春,一日之计在于晨”说的就是这个道理。例如有人就属于“百灵鸟型”的人,早晨头脑清醒,学习效果最好。当然个人因情况不同,具体的最佳学习效果时间会有所不同。
英语书面表达备考40条
一、高考试题简介
1.六类作文。2010年的高考主要考人物介绍,描写地点,记叙事件,对比议论,活动安排和数字与图表说明六类作文。
2.作文内容贴近学生,贴近生活,贴近现实。
3.文章长度120个词左右。
4.署名有规定,不可露出本人姓名与学校。
5.高考作文都有明确的交际对象。或同学,或外国朋友,或一般民众。
6.写作目的也一目了解。
7.内容要点一般是6个,外加2个细节。
8.语言准确,首先注意名词单复数,动词形式等。
9.书写和标点及大小写要工整规范,每段第一行缩进5个字母。
10.高考不考特殊格式,不必演练书信、通知等格式。
11.要有合适的连接词语。
12.如能写出恰当的新颖词汇更好。
13.有的试题给出了参考词汇。
14.用文字提示或图画、图表告知写作内容。
15.鼓励写出复杂句式,如定语从句、强调句型、被动语态、非谓语动词短语、so...that、with+复合宾语等。
二、应试要领
1.首先是仔细审题。特别注意内容要点,写作对象和交际目的。
2.尽管写草稿,实在没时间也要写一个提纲。
3.确定好时态。转述别人观点常用现在时。记叙经常发生的事用一般现在时,描写过去发生的事用过去时。
4.不生造中国式的英语。要用你听过的话来说,用你读过的句子来写。
5.注意写好首句,不要轻易下笔。尾句部分容易出错,要留意。
6.内容要点最好在原题上标出记号,以防遗漏。
7.必须要用几个连词,或顺接,或转折,或让步,或比较。
8.写记叙文,注意六个要素:who,where,when,why,how and the result。
9.议论文,注意论点与论据一致。还要注意是让你写一方观点还是介绍对立的两种观点。
10.应用文主要是写信件或通知,告知活动安排。一般按时间顺序写比较稳妥。
11.出题人给出的参考词汇应尽量用上,不要自作主张忽略不用。
12.力争有闪光之处,因为你的作文全是简单句得不了高分。用恰当的连词把全文串起 来,用新颖的词汇传达最通俗的信息。
13.采用多变的句式,如被动句式,定语从句,with加复合宾语以及倒装句等。
14.有时候阅读题中的句型可以稍加改造,抄来用在自己的作文中。
15.字数一般应稍多于试题的最低要求,但不宜过长,因为言多有失。
16.写完后要检查复核,重点看动词的使用。最好是写完作文后先检查别的题型,因为自己刚写完的东西马上检查常常看不出问题。
