It's useful and necessary to discuss learning habits.In reality,different students have different learning habits,which I think influence their learning efficiency greatly.Good habits always lead to high efficiency,while bad ones bring the opposite.Some students are good at concentrating on what the teachers teach in class.They think only in this way can they understand and memorize the teaching materials better.If we find those materials interesting,we'll focus our attention on them for long.However,those dull lessons require our determination,selfcontrolling ability and confidence.My classmates always call me “Mr.forgetful”,because I cannot memorize those I have learnt.I know that it is because I don't spend some time in memorizing them after class.My teachers advise me to repeat the materials several times and read them aloud,which they think will help improve my memory.【亮点揭示】
1.本文属于要点式及半开放作文,范文准确表述了此次作文的要点。
2.本文行文流畅,文章脉络非常清晰。运用了In reality,while,however,because等过渡词,使得文章表述非常自然。

参考词汇:铺路pave the way From the picture we can see a family of three walking on a long red carpet.____________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________ 【参考范文】
From_the_picture_we_can_see_a_family_of_three_walking_on_a_long_red_carpet.The son,well dressed,waves proudly in the middle while the father behind bends forward to hold the jacket and the mother in front rolls out the carpet,sweating.It shows a common phenomenon nowadays that children are the focus of families,shouldering the hope of their parents.Parents arrange everything for their children and spare no effort to pave the way for their success.As a consequence,children become so reliant on their parents that they have no independent thought or creative ideas.Such a situation is of great concern.In my opinion,overprotection and too much care are extremely bad for children's development.Instead of doing everything for them,parents should encourage their children to overcome difficulties and inspire them to develop by themselves.Only in this way can they grow up to be independent and become truly successful.校园类

My deskmate admires my fluent English very much and I usually feel encouraged by his compliments.One day, when we learned the new word “eccentric” in class, we were asked to make a sentence with it.I volunteered to do it by saying “My deskmate is an eccentric boy whose clothes never fit him.”Hearing this, the whole class burst into laughter and my deskmate's face turned red.After class,I learned from the teacher that my deskmate would have dropped out of school if he hadn't been helped by others.My mindless words must have hurt him deeply.Not until then did I realize words could be powerful in both positive and negative ways.We should avoid hurting others if we can't always be encouraging when we speak.1.高分作文特征

Good morning, everyone!The topic of my speech today is “Don’t eat snacks”.As you can see, there is a serious phenomenon in our school that many students will crowd in the school store to buy snacks after each class and some students even eat snacks in class.Eating snacks is a bad habit and is also a waste of money.In addition, most snacks are unhealthy food, for they contain too much fat and sugar.Eating snacks improperly may lead to fatness and illness.What’s worse, some students throw the wrappers everywhere, which pollutes our campus.Dear fellow students, it’s high time that we shouldn’t act like kids any more.We high school students, should develop good eating habits.Remember that three regular meals a day as well as a balanced diet are essential for us.Let’s form good eating habits and say no to snacks.Thanks for listening.4.Dear Sir or Madam, I'm Li Hua, a middle school student from China.I read the announcement of the summer camp that you have posted on the Internet and I am interested in it.I know that you welcome students from different countries and I'd like to take part in it.I've been learning English for 10 years, and I speak fluent English.What is more, I'JI be able to tell students from other countries about China and learn about their countries as well.I hope I will be accepted as a member of your summer camp.Looking forward to your reply!

5.Everyone has a dream.Just like the boy in the picture.He is climbing a 5
ladder to reach the stars.Although the stars seem far too high for him to reach, the boy is still making great effort.Some people may laugh at the boy.But in my opinion, dreams are like the stars hanging high in the sky.Even though we may not reach them, we can look up and enjoy their beauty, believe in them, and try to follow where they lead.What’s more, in fulfilling our dreams, we may run into many difficulties.We should face them bravely and manage to find ways to solve the problems.Like the boy in the picture, we should find a ladder to success and move up step by step.The more difficulties we overcome, the closer we are to our dreams.Dreams are the most valuable things we have in our life.They inspire us, they fire us up, and they make us work wonders.Fulfilling our dreams makes our life full and meaningful.6.Last Saturday afternoon I went home with my friend Wang Wei.We were talking happily when a man riding a motorbike passed us quickly.To our great surprise, some 100-yuan notes dropped to the ground from the bag hanging on his motorbike.Hurriedly I shouted at the top of my voice to stop him.But he rode away without hearing me.Seeing the notes scattered on the road, Wang Wei and I decided to pick up the money and wait for the man to come back.Some people seeing what had happened also helped to collect the money.A
few minutes later, the man rode back, with sweet on his forehead.He was in a great panic when he saw many people picking up the money.He must have thought that we would go away with his hard-earned money.So when all of us returned the money to him he was so moved and relieved that he kept saying “thank you”.I was so happy that I could give a hand to the man who was in trouble.It was a really rewarding and fulfilling afternoon.

In one of the old buildings near our school,one could see an old man sitting by a large window on the first floor.His name was James.During the three years at school,I had hardly ever found him missing from his usual position.He was a high-ranking government official and lived happily with his wife.Once there was a bus accident,in which a number of passengers were seriously injured and were taken to the hospital for treatment.James was responsible for the rescue operation.It was a big hospital,but James was shocked to notice how ill-equipped it was.There were no enough life-saving drugs and life-supporting equipment.The injured and their companions had to struggle there.James attempted to help.However,though he emptied his pockets,many of them died that day.That was a turning point in his life.He made a decision to devote his life to helping others,particularly the poor and needy patients and their companions.He began spending much of his income on these people.Since this required a lot of time and energy,he found it difficult to fulfill his official duties and therefore chose to retire,which,in turn,reduced his income considerably.His wife was deeply worried.Most of the time,James was out and paid least attention to home affairs.Meanwhile,as he was spending a lot helping others,she had to struggle even to meet the household expenses.Though she was not opposed to his helping the poor,she urged him not to overlook his own life and home,but it had no effect on him.One day they had a heated argument and in the end she left him,never to return.Though he continued with his work,this was a great blow and did serious harm to his health and enthusiasm and he was soon forced to stay indoors.That was when he took his position by the window,spending his time looking outside.A few weeks after my graduation,I returned to school,only to find the buildings gone.I heard that they were torn down.All the people left except James.He refused to go and the next morning,he was found at his usual place by the window,dead.【语篇解读】 该文讲述了詹姆斯决心献身慈善事业,却忽略了事业与家庭之间的平衡,以致妻子愤然离去。受到打击的詹姆斯从此身体日渐衰弱、精神涣散,终日坐在窗前等待妻子归来,直到死去。

A.she was strongly against his deeds B.James paid too little attention to his work C.her work to support their daily life was too tiring D.James failed to keep a balance between charity and home 答案 D [细节理解题。从第四段中的Though she was not opposed to his helping the poor,she urged him not to overlook his own life and home...可知,他的妻子不满他太专心于慈善工作而忽略了家庭,即没有在事业和家庭间达到平衡。故选D项。] 7.The underlined word “this” in Paragraph 4 refers to ________.

Yours,Li Hua 【参考范文】 Dear Wang Qiang,How are you doing recently?I’m writing to give you some suggestions on study and life.For Senior 3 students,time is precious.It is high time that we took effective measures to live our life to the fullest.First of all,I highly propose we make the most of the time in class,following our teachers.Besides,we tend to get anxious with time going by.Take it easy.It’s OK.More importantly,just as an old saying goes,“Health is wealth.” That’s why we have to spend some time exercising regularly.Tired as we feel,we are lucky and happy with so many teachers,friends,and our parents standing behind us.We may ask them for help whenever we need it.Do you like my advice?I hope we will graduate from high school without regrets and be admitted to our ideal universities.Wish you success.Yours,Li Hua(二)读后续写
阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
If there’s one thing I can’t stand people saying,it’s,“I’m no good at anything...I don’t have any talent.” I just don’t buy that at all.To me,everyone has at least one talent,and while it sometimes takes you a lifetime to find,it does exist.There was a time when I didn’t believe that.What changed my mind was a seemingly(看似)small event that took place in 1953.At that time I was a high school student.I was a funny-looking skinny boy named Eugene Orowitz,who weighed barely 100 pounds.I was a good student,but as far as I was concerned,in just about every other department I was a loser.I wanted to fit in,to be someone and do something well.But I hadn’t found anything I was good at.One sunny afternoon,our gym class went out to the school’s running track.The teacher taught us all various track and field events.I was a loser in all of them.Then came the javelin(标枪).Suddenly something inside me began saying,“Try it!Try it!” I had to wait my turn,though,because several others wanted a break at the javelin too.Shy and scared,I watched them,trying not to look too eager.Finally,when everyone had had a chance to throw—the best throw going about 30 yards—I looked at the teacher.“Hey,Orowitz,you want to try?” he asked.Embarrassed,I looked down,but managed to nod my head.“Well,come on then,” he said impatiently,and handed me the javelin.Behind me I could hear some of my classmates laughing.As I grasped the javelin in my hand,I was seized with a strange feeling—a new-found excitement.For some crazy reason,I was relaxed over what I was about to do,even though I’d never done it before.I raised the javelin over my head,took six quick steps and let the thing go.The same voice that had urged me into throwing it,now told me it was a good throw.注意:1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右; 2.应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语; 3.续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好; 4.续写完成后,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。Paragraph 1:

I watched as the spear took off.My heart quickened as I saw it continue to sail,30 yards out,then 40.As it went past the 50-yard mark,it was still going.For a minute nothing was said.Then someone whispered,“Holy cow!”And others began cheering.Nobody could believe what little Eugene Orowitz had just done.I took the javelin back to the gym teacher.“You keep the thing,”he said,still shaking his head in wonder.That night I took the javelin home with me.The very next day I began practicing with it,and every day that summer—for six hours or more—I would throw it in a nearby schoolyard.By the time I was a member of the track team,all my practice paid
off.I threw the javelin 211 feet that year,the best throw by any high-school boy in the country.I feel strongly that we must keep our minds open;we can’t let ourselves be discouraged or depressed when the talent doesn’t readily appear.

There are various reasons why cancers appear to be on the increase.For one thing, though their sufferers are to be found in all age groups, cancers are particularly likely to attack persons in their middle and advanced years.Naturally, since people live longer these years, there are more cancer sufferers than before.Again, with better methods of diagnosis(诊断), doctors can more easily recognize cancerous growths that would formerly have passed unnoticed or that would have been wrongly diagnosed.It is also believed that certain habits and conditions of modem living, including heavy smoking and the pollution of the air, may leave people living in more cancer-causing conditions than before.We all look forward to the day when a simple medical test can find cancer while it is still small.Researchers around the world are working on such a test.Most of their work deals with the examination of the blood.Researchers in Boston have found something in the blood of cancer patients that does not appear in healthy persons.The test showed which persons had cancer and which did not.It was correct more than 90 percent of the time.The researchers believe the test may be able to show cancer very clearly in its development.Cancers discovered early usually can be treated successfully.The test examines very small bits of fat in the blood called lipids(脂质).Cancers seem to change lipids although doctors do not know why.The test showed differences between the lipids of the persons with cancer and the lipids of those without cancer.The researchers say the new test could be a step to develop a simple way to check patients for cancer before the disease shows on an X-ray.1.Who will fail cancer from the study of the researchers?
A.The young.C.The man.B.The middle age and the older.D.The woman.2.The underlined words “such a test” refer to________.A.the test that shows which persons have cancer and which don’t.B.the test that may be able to show cancer very early in its development,.C.a simple medical test that cannot find cancer when it is-small
D.a new test that could be a step to develop a difficult way
3.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A.Cancers have much to do with something in patients’ blood.B.People living in better conditions are most likely to be attacked by cancer.C.X-raying is the best way to determined whether a person has cancer or not.D.Cancers have nothing to do with a person’s habits and living conditions.4.What would be the best title for the passage?
A.A simple way to cancerB.Cancers can be cured
C.How to find cancerD.Early discovery of cancer
As a human being you may have the choice of three basic attitudes towards life.You may treat life with the philosophy(哲学)of the vegetable, in which case your life will include being born, eating, drinking, sleeping, marrying, growing old and dying.The second basic attitude is to look at life as if it were a business.A great many so-called successful men and women believe that life is a business.If you believe so, your first question of life, naturally, is “ What do I get out of it? ” “ How much is this worth to me?” In a word, based on this attitude, happiness becomes a matter of successful competition.The great majority of human beings today look at life as if it were a business.The third attitude toward life is the way of the artist.Here the basic philosophy is “What can I put into it?”.They value cooperation and contribution.This point of view has been proved by history;for history remembers best those who have contributed most richly to the interests of their fellow-men.The more we
investigate(调查),the more we become certain that the artistic attitude is the only one which goes with human happiness.5.From the passage we know people who take the second life attitude ________.A.are mostly businessmenB.think of getting the interests(利益)first
C.find their happiness from hard work
whole life
6.People who are best remembered by history are probably
A.those living on vegetablesB.successful men
C.artistsD.businessmen D.take competition as their
7.We may infer from this passage that ________.A.some people are living only on vegetables
B.the artistic attitude is accepted by most people
C.the writer prefers the third life attitude
D.artists do most for the society in order to be remembered longer than others
The question of what children learn, and how they should learn, is continually being debated and redebated.Nobody dares any longer to defend the old system, the learning of lessons parrot-fashion, the grammar-with-a-whip system, which was good enough for our grandparents.The theories of modem psychology have stepped in to argue that we must understand the need of children.Children are not just small adults;they are children who must be respected as much.Well, you may say, this is as it should be, a good idea.But think further.What happens? “Education” becomes the responsibility not of teachers, but of psychologists(心里学家).What happens then? Teachers worry too much about the psychological implications(暗示)of their lessons, and forget about the subjects themselves.If a child dislikes a lesson, the teacher feels that it is his fault, not the child’s.So teachers worry whether history is “relevant” to modern young
children.And do they dare to recount stories about violence? Or will this make the children themselves violent? Can they tell their classes about children of different races, or will this encourage racial hatred? Why teach children to write grammatical sentences? Verbal expression is better.Sums? Arithmetic? No: Real-life mathematical situations are more understandable.You see, you can go too far.Influenced by educational theorists, who have nothing better to do than to write books about their ideas, teachers leave their teacher-training colleges filled with grand, psychological ideas about children and their needs.They make elaborate, sophisticated(精致的,复杂的)preparations and try out their “modem methods” on the long-suffering children.Since one “modem method” rapidly replaces another the poor kids will have had a good bellyful by the time they leave school.Frequently the modem methods are so sophisticated that they fail to be understood by the teachers, let alone the children;even more often, the relaxed discipline so essential for the “ informal” feelings the class must have, prevents all but a handful of children from learning anything.8.People do not dare defend the old system mainly because under the old system________.A.too much grammar was taught to childrenB.children were spoiled(宠坏)
C.children were treated as grown-upsD.children were made to learn passively(被动的)
9.What view do the modem psychologists hold?
A.Children must be understood and respected.B.Children are small adults and know what they need.C.Children are better off without learning lessons.D.Education of children is the responsibility of psychologists.10.What happens when teachers pay too much attention to the psychology of their lessons?
A.They find that the children dislike the lessons.B.They tend to blame students for their failure.C.They do not pay enough attention to the actual lessons.D.They no longer want to teach children history.11.Grammatical sentences are regarded as unimportant because ________.A.it is better to use verbs only
B.words are said out of natural feelings only
C.talking freely and naturally without sentences is a better form of expression
D.it is felt that formal grammar rules might cause unnatural expressions
12.According to the passage, the modern methods are understood by ________.A.neither teachers nor pupilsB.only a handful of teachers and pupils
C.the more sophisticated teachersD.everyone who enjoys the relaxed discipline of the informal classes
