Your increased interest will lead to a better memory of both word and meaning. It also encourages your development of the habits needed to accelerate your progress. And when you see in black and white the definition you had expected, what a feeling of acplishment is yours. In that way, the CPD Formula provides the exact approaches for maximum effectiveness. ve looked for familiar word parts. Now you play Sherlock Homes. In light of context or word parts, you try to solve a mystery. What exactly does that strange word mean? Only after you go through the mental gymnastics to e up with a tentative (不確定的) definition should you open the dictionary to see if you39。Through the Dictionary. Now you can see why you should consult the dictionary last, not first. You39。To speed up your use of word parts, you will be introduced to the fourteen most important words in the English language. The prefix and root elements in those few words are found in over 14, 000words. With those amazingly useful shortcuts, you can build up vocabulary, not at a snail39。Through Word Parts. Now for the next step. Often unfamiliar words contain one or more parts, which, if recognized, provide definite help with meaning. Take the word monolithic for example. Try to separate the parts. There is the prefix mono, meaning one, and the rootlith, meaning stone. Finally, there39。t tell you which meaning is intended. That39。But there39。 s why you should use the CPD formula. How do you spend your time?To get it, Paul T. Rankin asked sixtyeight individuals to keep an accurate, detailed record of what they did every minute of their waking hours. He discovered that 70percent of their waking time was spent on one thing onlymunication. Put that evidence alongside the research findings uncovered by the Human Engineering Laboratories, they discovered that, vocabulary, more than any other factor yet known, predicts financial success. New words make us better thinkers as well as municators. What better reason for beginning right now to extend your vocabulary?But how? 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解和詞義猜測兩個題型的考查,是一篇教育類閱讀,考生需要準確掌握細節(jié)信息,同時根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進行推理,歸納,從而選出正確答案。s occupation or the economic level of the country.” 研究者們感到震驚的是,在家里看書對孩子的受教育程度的影響甚至超過了父母的受教育程度、父親的職業(yè)或國家的經(jīng)濟水平等因素的影響。根據(jù)第四段中的“The researchers were struck by the strong effect having books in the home had on children39。故選A。所以,家中有書可以激勵孩子獲得更高層次的教育水平?!笨芍?,書對孩子有很大影響。文章第二、三段一直說家中有書對孩子的積極影響。故選C。根據(jù)第二段中的“For years, educators have thought the strongest predictor(預(yù)示物) of attaining high levels of education was having parents who were highly educated”. 多年來,教育工作者一直認為,預(yù)示孩子能獲取高教育水平的最強的因素莫過于有受過高等教育的父母”。Having books in the home.【答案】 (1)C(2)A(3)D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文,分析了影響孩子教育水平的因素,告訴我們家里有書對孩子的重要性勝于家長受過高等教育的影響。s occupation.C.B.The economic level of the country.Making somebody pretend to do something.D.Making somebody want to do something.B. level of education had nothing to do with their children39。children whose parents are highly educated would attain high levels of educationD.children whose family had a library would possibly attain high levels of educationB.Having books in the home is twice as important as the father39。s educational attainment even above and beyond such factors as education level of the parents, the father39。 Being a sociologist, Evans was particularly interested to find that children of lesseducated parents benefit the most from having books in the home. What kinds of investments should we make to help these kids get ahead? The results of this study indicate that getting some books into their homes is an inexpensive way that we can help these children succeed. Evans said, Even a little bit goes a long way. Having as few as 20 books in the home still has a significant impact on motivating a child to a higher level of education, and the more books you add, the greater benefit the children get. Parents who have books in the home increase the level of education their children will attain(獲得), whether rich or poor, according to a 20year study led by Mariah Evans. 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查,是一篇教育類閱讀,考生需要準確掌握細節(jié)信息,同時根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理,從而選出正確答案。根據(jù)第三段中的”Practice is important. We must practise speaking and writing the language whenever we can.“練習(xí)非常重要。所以選B。根據(jù)第二段中的”A good memory is a great help, but it is not enough only to memorize the rules from a grammar book.“好的記憶力是會很有幫助,但是光從語法書上記憶語法規(guī)則是不夠的;以及第三段中的”If we are pleased with a few rules we have memorized, we are not really learning the language. We must learn through use. Practice is important. “如果我們對于記點語法規(guī)則就很滿足,但在并不是真正在學(xué)語言。推斷有些人說不好,是因為在說這方面,他有猶豫要不要練習(xí)說這門語言,故選D。 (2)考查推理判斷。 (1)考查細節(jié)理解。t have a good memory always remembers lists of words and their meanings often hesitates(猶豫)to practise speaking it(3)One can never learn a foreign language well by . doesn39。D.Listening, speaking, reading and writingC.. A. There are no shortcuts to success in language learning. A good memory is a great help, but it is not enough only to memorize the rules from a grammar book. It is not much learning by heart long lists of words and their meanings, studying the dictionary and so on. We must learn by using the language.4.閱讀理解 【點評】考查閱讀理解,涉及推理判斷題和細節(jié)理解題。作者只是通過比較和對比來描述中西方學(xué)生的學(xué)習(xí)方式和教育方式的不同,并沒有對美國教育加以評論,故作者對美國教育的態(tài)度是中立的。故選A。 (3)細節(jié)理解題。可推斷中國教育對發(fā)展學(xué)生的創(chuàng)造力是沒有幫助的。 (2)推理判斷題。下句說到他們和學(xué)生交流的語言特征是使用很多的情態(tài)動詞,并舉了很多例句,因此可推斷美國教授這樣做是為了發(fā)展學(xué)生自己的思維方式。根據(jù)第二段的內(nèi)容The professor didn3
