然后具體描述現(xiàn)象We see that?。最后用for instance引出一些具體數(shù)據(jù)來例證現(xiàn)象。第二段:分析原因。先寫一個引出原因的句子,然后具體列舉一到兩個原因即可。由于字?jǐn)?shù)限制,原因不必列太多。第三段:給出建議。先是總結(jié)這個現(xiàn)象This phenomenon tells us that education is a worthy investment.(教育值得投資)。然后是建議國家增大教育投資,以及個人要努力學(xué)習(xí)。這種三段式的寫作模式容易掌握,在考場中比較實用,建議大家仿寫?!靖叻职纥c評】本次四級作文圍繞著同一個話題,education pay(教育回報),出現(xiàn)了兩個版本,一個是教育和失業(yè)率的關(guān)系,另一個是教育和收入的關(guān)系。就話題而言,命題難度并不高,選用的是貼近考生實際生活的熟悉話題。形式上則采取圖表作文的形式,圖表作文在四級考試中較少出現(xiàn),很多考生可能剛拿到題目會束手無策,但是只要考生仔細(xì)閱讀題目,就不難發(fā)現(xiàn),除了需要簡單描述圖表之外,其寫作思路和話題作文非常類似。寫好這篇作文,主要抓住三點:首先,描述圖表內(nèi)容。對于柱狀圖,抓住橫抽和縱軸之間的關(guān)系,對數(shù)字的變化趨勢進行總體描述即可。用詞不宜超過總字?jǐn)?shù)的1/3。其次,要一句話揭示圖表背后的隱含意思,引入文章的立意。最后,文章的立意可以采取兩種思路,保守的寫法是直接闡釋產(chǎn)生現(xiàn)象的原因,如寫失業(yè)率那篇范文;另一個則是,根據(jù)圖表上的結(jié)果,借題發(fā)揮,發(fā)表自己的觀點,如寫收入的那篇范文。Part II Reading Comprehension(Skimming and Scanning) showmanship 細(xì)節(jié)題。這道題的答案對應(yīng)原文第一句話,從putting on a show 可以推出showmanship。when it came to putting on a show, nobody else in the puter industry, or any other industry for that matter, could match Steve ,仔細(xì)閱讀不難得出選擇是BHe invented lots of functional 。原文第2段第2句話提到了喬布斯突出的三個方面,第三句話明確指出最后一個方面,也就是他在functional gadgets 上的貢獻對人們的生活影響最大,對比第二題的選項,應(yīng)選AHe stood out in three ways—as a technologist, as a corporate leader and as somebody who was able to make people love what had previously been impersonal, functional , it is this last quality that may have the deepest effect on the way people His keen interest in designing elegant and userfriendly 。答案在第三段第二句,“obsessed with product design and aesthetics, and with making advanced technology simple to use”。講到喬布斯癡迷于產(chǎn)品的設(shè)計和美學(xué)上,以及使高科技簡單易用。所以選BAs a technologist, Mr Jobs was different because he was not an engineer—and that was his great he was obsessed with product design and aesthetics, and with making advanced technology simple to One of the greatest chief executives of his 。答案在第4段第一句話的后半句“many of those corporate giants as one of the greatest chief executives of his time.”所以選A,其他的選項均不正確。Within the wider business world, a man who liked to see himself as a hippy, permanently in revolt against big panies, ended up being hailed by many of those corporate giants as one of the greatest chief executives of his an inspiration細(xì)節(jié)題。答案在第四段第三句話?!癷s an inspiration to any businessperson”。所以選DHis fall from grace in the 1980s, followed by his return to Apple in 1996 after a period in the wilderness, is an inspiration to any businessperson whose career has taken a turn for the worse.‘ He manded absolute loyalty from Apple 。由關(guān)鍵詞fanatical loyalty 定位到低段第一句話。所以喬布斯成功最令人震驚的地方在于它獲得了蘋果用戶的絕對忠誠。選CBut what was perhaps most astonishing about Mr Jobs was the fanatical loyalty he managed to inspire in It originates in the consumer 。由關(guān)鍵詞special report定位到第6段第一句,As our special report in this week39。s issue(printed before Mr Jobs39。s death)explains, innovation used to spill over from military and corporate laboratories to the consumer market, but lately this process has gone into people39。s homes now have more powerful, and more flexible, devices than their offices do。consumer gizmos and online services are smarter and easier to use than most panies39。 ,現(xiàn)在的情況是反過來。所以選D and inflexible細(xì)節(jié)題。由關(guān)鍵詞 “critics plained”定位到第七段第一句,可知空格處應(yīng)填寫“closed and inflexible”。Mr Jobs had a reputation as a control freak, and his critics plained that the products and systems he designed were closed and inflexible, in the name of greater ease of 細(xì)節(jié)題,由關(guān)鍵詞“Amazon”定位到原文第8段,所以空格處填bined。At the recent unveiling of a tablet puter by Jeff Bezos of Amazon, whose pany is doing the best job of following Apple39。s lead in bining hardware, software, content and services in an easytouse bundle, entire industries細(xì)節(jié)題,由關(guān)鍵詞the magic of puting定位到原文最后一段,空格處填reshaping entire in the end he conjured up a reality of his own, channelling the magic of puting into products that reshaped entire III Listening ComprehensionSection A : I just heard about a really beautiful park in the east end of the are a lot of roses in : Why don’t we walk over there and see for ourselves?Q: What will the speakers probably do?答案: to the park to enjoy the :對話中女士介紹了一處漂亮的公園,從男士的回答“為什么不去看看呢?”可以判斷,接下去兩人可能會去這個公園。see for 看見: My presentation is scheduled for 9:30 tomorrow morning at the lecture hope to see you : Oh, was about to tell you that I have an appointment with my dentist at 9:00 o’clock : What do we learn about the woman?答案: cannot attend the :從對話中可知,女士九點要去看牙醫(yī),無法參加男士的講座了。: How long have you been running this pany?M: Twenty years if you can believe brought it from a small operation to what it is : What do we learn about the man?答案: is a very successful :從對話中可知,男士經(jīng)營這家公司20年了,而且成功把公司從一家小公司發(fā)展到了現(xiàn)在較大的規(guī)模。run ,管理: Have you read the news on the campus net?
