Madonna感人肺腑真诚演讲致敬M J
|
http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/akbsVO5Nttk
Madonna surprised MTV's VMAs tonight by opening the show with a long speech about Michael Jackson that was followed by a performance by Janet Jackson. The show closed with a spectacular look at This Is It, the film assembled from Jackson's concert rehearsals. Read Madonna's entire tribute here:
Michael Jackson. [Cheers] I have a little bit more to say than that. OK, here we go again. Michael Jackson was born in August 1958. So was I. Michael Jackson grew up in the suburbs of the Midwest. So did I. Michael Jackson had eight brothers and sisters. So do I. When Michael Jackson was six, he became a superstar, and was perhaps the world's most beloved child. When I was six, my mother died. I think he got the shorter end of the stick. I never had a mother, but he never had a childhood. And when you never get to have something, you become obsessed by it.
I spent my childhood searching for my mother figures. Sometimes I was successful, but how do you recreate your childhood when you are under the magnifying glass of the world?
There is no question that Michael Jackson is one of the greatest talents the world has ever known. That when he sang a song at the ripe old age of eight he could make you feel like an experienced adult was squeezing your heart with his words. That when he moved he had the elegance of Fred Astaire and packed the punch of Muhammad Ali. That his music had an extra layer of inexplicable magic that didn't just make you want to dance but actually made you believe you could fly, dare to dream, be anything that you wanted to be. Because that is what heroes do and Michael Jackson was a hero. He performed in soccer stadiums around the world, and sold hundreds of millions of records and dined with prime ministers and presidents. Girls fell in love with him, boys fell in love with him, everyone wanted to dance like him. He seemed otherworldly — but he was a human being.
like most performers he was shy and plagued with insecurities. I can't say we were great friends, but in 1991 I decided I wanted to try to get to know him better. I asked him out to dinner, I said "My treat, I'll drive — just you and me."
He agreed and showed up to my house without any bodyguards. We drove to the restaurant in my car. It was dark out, but he was still wearing sunglasses.
I said, "Michael, I feel like I'm talking to a limousine. Do you think you can take off your glasses so I can see your eyes?"
Then he tossed the glasses out the window, looked at me with a wink and a smile and said, "Can you see me now? Is that better?"
in that moment, I could see both his vulnerability and his charm. The rest of the dinner, I was hellbent on getting him to eat French fries, drink wine, have dessert and say bad words. Things he never seemed to allow himself to do. Later we went back to my house to watch a movie and sat on the couch like two kids, and somewhere in the middle of the movie, his hand snuck over and held mine.
It felt like he was looking for more of a friend than a romance, and I was happy to oblige. In that moment, he didn't feel like a superstar. He felt like a human being.
We went out a few more times together, and then for one reason or another we fell out of touch. Then the witch hunt began, and it seemed like one negative story after another was coming out about Michael. I felt his pain, I know what it's like to walk down the street and feel like the whole world is turned against you. I know what it's like to feel helpless and unable to defend yourself because the roar of the lynch mob is so loud you feel like your voice can never be heard. But I had a childhood, and I was allowed to make mistakes and find my own way in the world without the glare of the spotlight.
When I first heard that Michael had died, I was in London, days away from the start of my tour. Michael was going to perform in the same venue as me a week later. All I could think about in this moment was, "I had abandoned him." That we had abandoned him. That we had allowed this magnificent creature who had once set the world on fire to somehow slip through the cracks. While he was trying to build a family and rebuild his career, we were all passing judgement. Most of us had turned our backs on him. In a desperate attempt to hold onto his memory, I went on the internet to watch old clips of him dancing and singing on TV and on stage and I thought, "my God, he was so unique, so original, so rare, and there will never be anyone like him again. He was a king."
But he was also a human being, and alas we are all human beings and sometimes we have to lose things before we can appreciate them. I want to end this on a positive note and say that my sons, age nine and four, are obsessed with Michael Jackson. There's a whole lot of crotch grabbing and moon walking going on in my house. And, it seems like a whole new generation of kids have discovered his genius and are bringing him to life again. I hope that wherever Michael is right now he is smiling about this.
Yes, Michael Jackson was a human being but he was a king. Long live the king.
迈克尔杰克逊出生于1958年8月。我也是。 迈克尔杰克逊是在美国中西部的郊区长大的,而我也是。 迈克尔杰克逊有八个兄弟姐妹,我也有。
在迈克尔杰克逊年仅6岁的时候,他便成为了一个超级巨星,或许更是世界上最多人钟爱的小孩。而我6岁的时候,母亲永远离开了我。
我从没有拥有过母爱,而他却从来没有享受过童年。当一个人意识到永远得不到某种东西时,他就会对此念念不忘。我耗尽了童年寻找母亲的形象,相比起MJ我是成功的。当你的一生都被安置在放大镜下被人关注时,试问你是如何重新找回你的童年?
毫无以为MJ是世界上最伟大的天才之一。当他还是个8岁的小孩时,他的歌声已经让人感觉像个饱经沧桑的成人在述说他的故事,也因此扣人心弦……他的音乐有一种魔力,让你不仅仅想随之而舞,更让你相信你可以飞翔,勇于面对自己的梦想,成为任何你想成为的人。因为这就是英雄的影响力!而迈克尔?杰克逊就是个英雄!
我无法说我们是很要好的朋友,但是在1991年我邀请他共度晚餐:我说:"我请客,我开车,只有你和我。"他答应了,并只身一人不带保镖出现在我家中。我开车和他出去,天已经很黑的可他仍然戴着他的墨镜。于是我说:"迈克尔,我觉得我是在跟这部车说话。你能把眼睛摘掉让我看见你的眼睛吗?"他犹豫了一会儿然后把眼镜扔出窗外,用闪烁的眼睛看着我,笑着说:"现在你能看见我了没?有没有好点?"在这时我终于感受到他的脆弱和他的魅力.
在晚餐休息时,我是让他吃薯条,喝葡萄酒,吃甜点,说脏话。这些事情他好像从来没有做过,我让他来自己做。 后来,我们回到我家看电影,和他在一起就像两个孩子坐在沙发上,他的手搭在了我的肩膀上。我可以体会他的痛苦。我很清楚当一个人走在街上而全世界似乎都与你为敌的感觉,我也很清楚那种无助和无法为自己辩护的痛苦,因为那些嘶吼着要将你处死的声音实在太大,以至于无论你如何大声否认也没人听见。
当我第一次听到MJ去世的消息时,我正在伦敦做巡回演唱会。而我当时的感觉便是我遗弃了他,我们都遗弃了他!……当他试图建立自己的家庭和重拾他的事业时,我们都忙于对他做出评定。我们中的大部分人都拒绝了他。
最后,我想以一个积极乐观的方式结束我的发言。我的两个儿子,9岁和4岁,都非常痴迷于MJ,成天都在家里跳月球步,就好像全世界新一代的小孩儿们发现了杰克逊的天赋,并将他重新复活一样。我希望无论迈克尔现在身在何处,看到这一些时都是面带微笑的。
是的,迈克尔·杰克逊是一个人类,但该死的,他就是一个王者!一个永世长存的王!

细节题准确定位方法:
1、根据题干关键词定位。(注意题干关键词在文章中的同义词)
例:brave=bold
2、利用因果、条件、比较关系词定位。
例:It's a better way of education. 条件词:It is a good way of education;if.... At...When...都是if的同义转换。
3、注意结合顺序原则定位。
4、难于定位时,抓住段落中最重要的考试原则句进行反推
18. Echo location in this article means the _____.根据顺序原则定位在第三段。
A) location of echoes
B) ability to determine where an echo comes from
C) scientific term for sound waves
D) ability to locate unseen objects by echoes
To appreciate the precision of the bats' echo location, we must first consider the degree of their reliance upon it. Thanks to sonar, an insect-eating bat can get along perfectly well without eyesight. This was brilliantly demonstrated by the Italian naturalist Lazzaro Spallanzani. He caught some bats in a bell tower, blinded them. and released them outdoors. Four of these blind bats were recaptured after they had found their ways back to the bell tower, and on examining their stomachs' contents, Spallanxani found that they had been able to capture and eat flying insects. We know from experiments that bats easily find insects in the dark of night, even when the insects make no sound that can be heard by human ears. A bat will catch hundreds of softbodied silent flying insects in a single hour. It will even detect and chase pebbles (卵石) tossed (向上扔)into the air.

Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:
When a consumer finds that an item she or he bought is faulty or in some other way does not live up to the manufacturer's claim for it, the first step is to present the warranty(保单), or any other records which might help, at the store of purchase. In most cases, this action will produce results. However, if it does not, there are various means the consumer may use to gain satisfaction.
注:1.present v. 提交
2.主题句后将介绍其他不同投诉的方法
A simple and common method used by many consumers is to complain directly to the store manager. In general, the "higher up" the consumer takes his or her complaint, the faster he or she can expect it to be settled. In such a case, it is usually settled in the consumer' s favor, assuming he or she has a just claim.
注:the more...the more... 比较结构,可以跟32题联系在一起。
(到此处,文章后面的题目中有4道题已经可以定位了。31题、32题、34题和35题)
Consumers should complain in person whenever possible, but if they cannot get to the place of purchase, it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter.
Complaining is usually most effective when it is done politely but firmly, and especially when the consumer can demonstrate what is wrong with the item in question. If this cannot be done, the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as to what is wrong, rather than by making general statements. For example, "The left speaker does not work at all and the sound coming out of the right one is unclear" is better than "This stereo(立体声音响)does not work."
注:1.firmly 坚决的
2.demonstrate 证明、证实
3.specific 具体的,详细的
4.as to = about
The store manager may advise the consumer to write to the manufacturer. If so, the consumer should do this, stating the complaint as politely and as firmly as possible. But if a polite complaint does not achieve the desired result, the consumer can go a step further. She or he can threaten to take the seller to court or report the seller to a private or public organization responsible for protecting consumers' rights.
33. The most effective complaint can be made by _________.
A) showing the faulty item to the manufacturer
B) explaining exactly what is wrong with the item
C) saying firmly that the item is of poor quality

Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn.

There can hardly be a man who hasn't at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes.

Do their unchanging styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability? That is for you to decide.

Question 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:
There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, vastly different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority (优先) it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is, how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities of spelling?
注:1.第一段中间出现 however, 末句为主题句
2.popular belief 普遍观点,负态度
3.ignor 忽略 = neglect = overlook, 区别是:ignor (故意) overlook ( 忽略)

5.confidently 自信的
If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teacher's interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to "play safe". He will tend to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to avoid adventurous language. That's why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.

2.adventurous 冒险的
3.content 内容,contend 包含
4.technical ability 指的是 spelling

B) teachers will have less trouble in correcting mistakes
C) students will have more confidence in writing
D) students will learn to be independent of teachers

I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a
sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience: "This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is illegible (难以辨认的)." It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupil's technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted to read the essay, which contained some beautiful expressions of the child's deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors, but if his priorities had centered on the child's ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation (动力) to seek improvement.
注:1.shock 震惊
2.omit 省略
3.作者对作文评语的负评价,but 及虚拟语气可以表明作者的态度。
24. The writer seems to think that the teacher's judgement on that sensitive piece of writing is ____________.

Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:
A rapid means of long-distance transportation became a necessity for the United States as settlement (新拓居地) spread ever farther westward. The early trains were impractical curiosities, and for a long time the railroad companies met with troublesome mechanical problems. The most serious ones were the construction of rails able to bear the load, and the development of a safe, effective stopping system. Once these were solved, the railroad was established as the best means of land transportation. By 1860 there were thousands of miles of railroads crossing the eastern mountain ranges and reaching westward to the Mississippi. There were also regional southern and western lines.
注:1.首句提出问题,后跟着解决方案。
四级文章套路:有现象必有解释,有结论必有解释,有问题必有解决方案
2.most serious 对应36题中的 major problem,最高级出现是考点
The high point in railroad building came with the construction of the first transcontinental system. In 1862 Congress authorized two western railroad companies to build lines from Nebraska westward and from California eastward to a meeting point, so as to complete a transcontinental crossing linking the Atlantic seaboard with the Pacific. The Government helped the railroads generously with money and land. Actual work on this project began four years later. The Central Pacific Company, starting from California, used Chinese labor, while the union Pacific employed crews of Irish laborers. The two groups worked at remarkable speed, each trying to cover a greater distance than the other. In 1869 they met at a place called Promontory in what is now the state of Utah. Many visitors came there for the great occasion. There were joyous celebrations all over the country, with parades and the ringing of church bells to honor the great achievement.

18. Echo location in this article means the _____.根据顺序原则定位在第三段。
A) location of echoes
B) ability to determine where an echo comes from
C) scientific term for sound waves
D) ability to locate unseen objects by echoes
To appreciate the precision of the bats' echo location, we must first consider the degree of their reliance upon it. Thanks to sonar, an insect-eating bat can get along perfectly well without eyesight. This was brilliantly demonstrated by the Italian naturalist Lazzaro Spallanzani. He caught some bats in a bell tower, blinded them. and released them outdoors. Four of these blind bats were recaptured after they had found their ways back to the bell tower, and on examining their stomachs' contents, Spallanxani found that they had been able to capture and eat flying insects. We know from experiments that bats easily find insects in the dark of night, even when the insects make no sound that can be heard by human ears. A bat will catch hundreds of softbodied silent flying insects in a single hour. It will even detect and chase pebbles (卵石) tossed (向上扔)into the air.

Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:
When a consumer finds that an item she or he bought is faulty or in some other way does not live up to the manufacturer's claim for it, the first step is to present the warranty(保单), or any other records which might help, at the store of purchase. In most cases, this action will produce results. However, if it does not, there are various means the consumer may use to gain satisfaction.
注:1.present v. 提交
2.主题句后将介绍其他不同投诉的方法
A simple and common method used by many consumers is to complain directly to the store manager. In general, the "higher up" the consumer takes his or her complaint, the faster he or she can expect it to be settled. In such a case, it is usually settled in the consumer' s favor, assuming he or she has a just claim.
注:the more...the more... 比较结构,可以跟32题联系在一起。
(到此处,文章后面的题目中有4道题已经可以定位了。31题、32题、34题和35题)
Consumers should complain in person whenever possible, but if they cannot get to the place of purchase, it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter.
Complaining is usually most effective when it is done politely but firmly, and especially when the consumer can demonstrate what is wrong with the item in question. If this cannot be done, the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as to what is wrong, rather than by making general statements. For example, "The left speaker does not work at all and the sound coming out of the right one is unclear" is better than "This stereo(立体声音响)does not work."
注:1.firmly 坚决的
2.demonstrate 证明、证实
3.specific 具体的,详细的
4.as to = about
The store manager may advise the consumer to write to the manufacturer. If so, the consumer should do this, stating the complaint as politely and as firmly as possible. But if a polite complaint does not achieve the desired result, the consumer can go a step further. She or he can threaten to take the seller to court or report the seller to a private or public organization responsible for protecting consumers' rights.

Nursing at Beth Israel also involves a decentralized (分散的) nursing administration; every floor, every unit is a self-contained organization.

Each unit's nurses decide among themselves who will work what shifts and when.
25. The author's attitude towards the nursing system at Beth Israel hospital is _________.

Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:
If women are mercilessly exploited (剥削) year after year, they have only themselves to blame. Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, they are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion. When you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe (衣柜) packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.
注:1.merciless 无情的
2.第一句结论主题句
3.taken advantage of 利用;tremble 颤抖
4.fashion 时尚,时装,形势;一词多义的现象:blue 蓝色;忧郁的;社会地位比较高的妇女,blues 蓝调音乐
36. Designers and big stores always make money ________.
A) by mercilessly exploiting women workers in the clothing industry
B) because they are capable of predicting new fashions
C) by constantly changing the fashions in women's clothing
D) because they attach great importance to quality in women s clothing
注:考得是首段第二和第三句之间的关系
Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Skirts are lengthened or shortened; neck-lines are lowered or raised, and so on.
注:1.nothing/no more than = only
2.changing fashion 改变中的时尚
3.alter 改变;afford 承担,支付
4.本段首句结论句,末句细节句
No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability (耐用). They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasn't at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes.
注:1.首句为结论句,后面开始解释
2.vital 重要的 vit 词根,意思是"重要"
VIP = very important person 重要的人
3.put up with 忍受= stand
4.末句为细节句,速读
When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion, the conclusions to be drawn are obvious. Do the constantly changing fashions of women' s clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of inconstancy and instability? Men are too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers. Do their unchanging styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability? That is for you to decide.
37. To the writer, the fact that women alter their old-fashioned dresses is seen as _________.
A) a waste of money B) a waste of time
C) an expression of taste D) an expression of creativity
注:通过alter 一词定位于第二段
Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn.

38. The writer would be less critical if fashion designers placed more stress on the _________of clothing.
A) cost B) appearance
C) comfort D) suitability
注:1.place stress on 重视
2.本句为虚拟语气,说明应该是设计师没有重视而被作者批判的东西。反过来想,定位第三段第二句,考得是列举现象
No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability (耐用).

2.A 选项为文章首句前半句的同义改写
3.B 陈述句表示确定语气,与文章中疑问句的不确定语气不同;C 项与文中意思相反,D 选项中only 绝对化语气词
If women are mercilessly exploited (剥削) year after year, they have only themselves to blame. Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, they are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion.

Question 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:
There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, vastly different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority (优先) it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is, how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities of spelling?
注:1.第一段中间出现 however, 末句为主题句
2.popular belief 普遍观点,负态度
3.ignor 忽略 = neglect = overlook, 区别是:ignor (故意) overlook ( 忽略)
4.give A priority over B 给A优先权
5.confidently 自信的
If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teacher's interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to "play safe". He will tend to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to avoid adventurous language. That's why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.
注:1.focal 关注的,名词为 focus 焦点
2.adventurous 冒险的
3.content 内容,contend 包含
4.technical ability 指的是 spelling
22. The expression "play safe" probably means ________
A) to write carefully
B) to do as teachers say
C) to use dictionaries frequently

23. Teachers encourage the use of dictionaries so that _________
A) students will be able to express their ideas more freely
B) teachers will have less trouble in correcting mistakes
C) students will have more confidence in writing
D) students will learn to be independent of teachers
注:文章第二段,B,D 选项文章未提到,可排除。定位此段末句,选择A项
I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a
sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience: "This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is illegible (难以辨认的)." It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupil's technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted to read the essay, which contained some beautiful expressions of the child's deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors, but if his priorities had centered on the child's ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation (动力) to seek improvement.
注:1.shock 震惊
2.omit 省略
3.作者对作文评语的负评价,but 及虚拟语气可以表明作者的态度。
24. The writer seems to think that the teacher's judgement on that sensitive piece of writing is ____________.
A) reasonable B) unfair
C) foolish D) careless
注:作者持负态度,所以选择B
21. Teachers are different in their opinions about _______
A) the difficulties in teaching spelling
B) the role of spelling in general language development
C) the complexities of the basic writing skills
D) the necessity of teaching spelling
注:文章第一段,role 对应文章中的 priority
There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, vastly different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority (优先) it must be given over general language development and writing ability.

25. The major point discussed in the passage is ________

注:1.provision 提供,来自 provide
2.modest 少量的,谦虚的
3.according to 之前是重点
The senior West German scientist in charge of the Community's solar energy program, Mr. Joachim Gretz, told journalists that at present levels of research spending it was most unlikely that solar energy would provide as much as three percent of the Community's energy requirements even after the year 2,000.

段子题:
词汇(很少考生词含义)
题材(抛弃题材,注重结构)
抓共性,总结规律
(一)解题步骤Procedure to follow:
1、看选项:找相同的词;找数字
在听题之前先看选项。四个选项纵向看,找相同的词,反复出现的词一定是段子所叙述的对象,确定文章的论述范围、论述主题。另外如果选项中有数字,迅速记下来,段子题中听到什么数字选什么,原则上不考数字计算。如P64 Test14的第一个段子。
11. A) She sat back and relaxed.
B) She decided to retire.
C) She entered university.
D) She worked out a new English program.
12. A) 8 years.
B) 20 years.
C) 16 years.
D) 30 years.
13. A) Bring a great deal of useful experience to the university.
B) Improve human relationships in the university.
C) Bring a fear of aging among young students on the campus.
D) Improve the reputation of the university.
14. A) She is learning English and Drama.
B) She is learning how to make sound judgments.
C) She is learning how to teach minority students.
D) She is leaning to perceive, not to judge.
文章的结构类型:
1、介绍型 introduction:介绍新的概念。说明起源、发展过程、现状、展望未来,对我们的影响和用途(正负两方面)。【听力中常考】
2、讨论型 discussion:根据问题进行讨论,分析原因一、原因二,最后说明如何解决。
3、对比型 comparison:两种观点、流派、理论进行对比,比较两种的优缺点,最后突出自己的观点。
2、听两头:选熟悉的选项。
文章的两头是一篇文章的重点,文章的开头是观点(Idea),即文章的Topic。而中间是细节,是用来支持观点的论据(examples)。听段子,听结构。文章的开头与结尾要出考题。一般正确选项基本会是原文的重现(copy)。所以,最好能作到边听边记。
结尾提示词:(1)有重复词出现。(2)表结果连词出现:therefore, so, that, as a result 等。
做题原则:听到什么选什么。
1、适合边听边看选项:选项短,问的是细节题,问题的顺序与行文顺序一致。
2、集中精力听完文章:选项长,主线题,问的是中心思想。
中间抓小词:极端词(细节题)
每个文章的题材不同,但考题有极大的共性。掌握了考题的共同特点,我们可以以不变应万变。文章可以听的不是很清楚,但几个重要的词一定要抓住。并在练习的过程中注重培养对这几个词的敏感。我们所要听的只有五个词:
First, most, because【前三个百分百出考题】, only, just 【后两个常出考题】(but).
这五个词是经典的考点。其中如果First, Most, Because出现一定要出考题。Just与Only也非常重要,基本会出考题。其实,这一点在阅读中也有非常明显的体现。听到这些词意味着找到了正确选项。
五种逻辑关系:
1、并列:and
2、转折:but
3、让步:though, although, even though, in spite of, despite
4、因果:because
5、递进:
用常识猜题:正常思维推理。
听力考试的Section A的短对话是学生生活的场景对话。问其中一人的观点,诸如:What does the man mean? 或What does the woman imply?不难发现,这样的考题是在问第三人的想法,非常主观。而相比之下,Section B的段子则截然不同,段子叙述的都是客观的事实。针对事实性的文章,我们应学会运用常识来推出正确选项。文章开头抓名词,名词概念为文章讨论的对象。如一题中问:What is the topic of this talk? 选项中找electric car。What is the advantage of the electric car over the traditional gas-fueled car? 我们不需要对段子听得很清楚就可以轻易地想出答案:没污染!比如:silk。再比如问:如果南极洲的冰帽融化,将对地球产生什么影响?What will happen if the ice cap of Antarctica melts? 我们立即会想到海平面会上升!所以,听段子时,我们需要客观冷静。有时,要跳出原文来客观地审视考题。
(二)段子题的分类及对策
1、主观题
又称态度题(Attitude)问Speaker对所叙述的对象的态度,或褒或贬。典型的问题类似:What is the speaker's impression of…?; What is the speaker's attitude to/ toward…? 段子题中一般是褒的态度。
考题特点:选项出现四个形容词。
解题方向:Speaker的态度反映在文中的形容词或副词。注重fortunately, luckily, unfortunately这样的具感情色彩的词。但凡听力中的段子,Speaker对于谈论的对象,不论是人物还是事物,都可能有双向评论。但在CET听力中,如果未能听出态度方向。只要选正态度就可以了!因为反驳的文章要比介绍性的文章复杂的多。典型的段子往往会说一个人对人类社会,或对某一团体有着伟大的贡献。或叙述某个组织,某个机构有创新性的,划时代意义的活动。
Questions 15 to 17 are based on the passage you have just heard.

C) Boating on the river.
D) Cycling in narrow streets.
16. A) There are many visitors there.
B) There are many students there.

17. A) He thinks the city is too crowded.
B) He likes the place very much.

Script
Cambridge is about 90 kilometers northeast of London. It is one of the most beautiful places in Britain. Everything about the city of Cambridge reminds you of its famous university: students on bicycles, the atmosphere of learning, traditions and the magnificent buildings of the 30 col­leges that are in the University of Cambridge. Most of the colleges stand on the bank of the Cam River the gentle river that flows through the heart of the city. Tourists and students like boating in a kind of flatbottom boat to see the colleges or to relax themselves. If the water traffic reminds the visitor of Venice, the road traffic is more likely to recall Beijing or Amsterdam. The streets are full of bicycles, hundreds and hundreds of them. They provide a cheap form of transport for the students and very conveniently of getting around the Cambridge' s nearer streets.
Questions 15 to 17 are based on the passage you have just heard.
15. What do tourists enjoy doing in Cambridge for relaxation?
16. Why did the road traffic in Cambridge remind one of Beijing?
17. What is the speaker's impression of Cambridge? 主观题
2、客观题
比如数字题。问及时间,多少,年代。问:When; How many...; How much? 在Section A中的数字题的对策是听到什么不选取什么,即把听到的数字在选项中要排除掉,因为Section A这部分要考察对数字的进一步运算能力。你听到的一定是原始数据,而不是最终结果(正确选项)。但是,在Section B的段子中,对策完全要反过来。即听到哪个数字就要选那个数字。段子中的数字不考运算。
考题特点:比较明显。选项都有数字(或年代,或时间等)。
解题对策:听题前第一步看选项时,如果看到数字题,把笔入在此题处,随时准备记录。听到什么,选什么。如有两个数字出现。先都记下来。在听问题时再进一步排除。
Questions 14 to 17 are based on the passage you have just heard.
14. A) The prison gates are always open.
B) Its prisoner can work outside.
C) The prison has no armed guards.

Script
In the high mountain country outside the city of Toluker, there stands a prison. This prison is quite different from other prisons in the world. The guards, except for two at the main gate, are not armed. There are many remarkable things about Toluker prison. For example, of the 15, 000 individuals who have been in prison at Toluker, less than two percent have got into trouble again with, the law. Men in the open prison are free to find work on the outside but must go back to prison each night. On weekends they are allowed to go home. When most other prisons are still sending criminals back into society, Toluker is returning people who stand on their own feet and contribute to society. In 1974, a prisoner called Barb Crook moved to the open prison. A year lat­er, he left Toluker for the last time. He was then nearly forty-six and had been in prison for fourteen years. He got a job as construction worker in the city, remarried and was regarded as a useful person of his community. If you ask Bob why Toluker works, he would say "Because they believed in me when I was at my worst."

Script
A six-year-old boy has been found alive after spending four days and five nights in an icebox that was buried under tons of ruins in Thursday's big earthquake.
The boy, Tom, was found early yesterday in the village of Sem as rescuers were working to pull his father out of the ruins of their home.
Hearing a faint cry of "Get me out, get me out", rescuers dug down another 1.5 meters and found the boy in the icebox. He was pronounced in a good condition, suffering only four or five slight wounds.
Tom's eight brothers and sisters died in the earthquake, which officials say may have killed as many as 50,000 people.

Script
The earth is composed of several layers. The top layer of the earth is called the earth' s crust. The earth' s crust is divided into seven sections. These sections are called plates.
When two plates push against each other, or when two plates rub against each other, an earthquake will occur. An earthquake causes the ground above the plate to shake. The shaking is caused by the motion of two plates.
Earthquakes are likely to happen at the boundaries of the earth's plates. Each of these plates is about 70 kilometers thick. Let's take a look at the general boundaries of one of these seven ma­jor plates.
Take the North American plate for an example. The left boundary of this plate is the west coast of North America and the east boundary of this plate is through the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. That is, this plate extends from the west coast of North America to the middle of the At­lantic Ocean.

Script
Nowadays motorcycling is fast becoming one of America' s most popular sports. However, there are several things about motorcycling that the average citizen dislikes. Motorcyclists fre­quently look dirty; in fact, they are dirty. On the road there is little to protect them from mud, insects, and bird droppings. For practical reasons they often dress in old clothing which looks much less respectable than the clothing of people who ride in cars. For the same reason motorcy­clists usually wear dark colors.
Of course the danger of motorcycling also helps account for many people' s low opinion of the sport. Its defenders, however, claim that careful cyclists are in less danger than is commonly be­lieved. A cyclist must drive as if no one else on the road chase him. He must pay careful attention to his driving. From that point of view, a man on a motorcycle is safer than a man in a car.

Script
Sports and games are very useful for character training. In their lessons at school, boys and girls may learn about such virtues as unselfishness, courage, discipline and love of one' s country. But what is learned in books cannot have the same deep effect on a child' s character as what is learned by experience. As most of the pupils' time is spent in classes studying lessons, the ordinary day school can' t give much practical training for their lives in the future. So it is what the pupils do in the spare time that really prepares them to take their places in society as citizens when they grow up. If each of them learns to work for his team, and not for himself on the football field, he will later find it natural to work for the good of his country instead of only for his own benefit.

Script
When you take a walk in any of the cities in the West, you often see a lot of people walking dogs. It is still true that a dog is the most useful and faithful animal in the world, but the reasons why people keep a dog have changed. In the old days people used to train dogs to protect them­selves against attacks by other beasts. And later they came to realize that a dog was not only use­ful for protection but willing to obey his master. For example, when people used dogs for hunt­ing, the dogs would not eat what was caught without permission. But now people in the city need not protect themselves against attacks of animals. Why do they keep dogs, then? Some people keep dogs to protect themselves from robbery. But the most important reason is for companion­ship. For a child, a dog is his best friend when he has no friends to play with. For young couples, a dog is their child when they have no children. For old couples, a dog is also their child when their real children have grown up. So the main reason why people keep dogs has changed from protection to friendship.

17. According to the passage, what were dogs trained for in the past?

Script
The two most famous faces in Britain today belong to two women who appear on television almost every night. If you open any popular magazine or newspaper you'll almost certainly see an article about one of them, with lots of photographs. Their names are Susan Rippon and Anna Ford. Susan reads the 9 o' clock news on BBC Television, and Anna reads the 10 o' clock news on Independent Television.
Most news announcers on British television are men, and when Susan began her job at the BBC three years ago, she was the first woman news announcer. Newspapers and magazines start­ed to take an interest in her and reporters started to write about her. Last year, Independent Television also decided to have a woman news announcer and they chose Anna Ford. Newspapers and magazines showed a great interest in her, too.
When Anna read the news for the first time on the 10 o'clock programme, millions of people who don' t normally watch the programme decided to watch it that night, to see Anna Ford.

Yet New England is not really a farming area. The farms are small. Generally they are only large enough to support one family. It also happens that the soil of New England is not good. This soil has been worked and planted for so many years that it has lost its value.
Most New Englanders today work in factories or small businesses. In these factories they make watches and clocks, shoes, clothing, special tools for industry, leather goods, etc. New England workmen are famous for their skill in making many of these things.

For most people the sea was remote, and with the exception of early intercontinental travelers or others who earned a living from the sea, there was little reason to ask many questions about it, let alone to ask what lay beneath the surface. The first time that the question 'What is at the bottom of the oceans?' had to be answered with any commercial consequence was when the laying of a telegraph cable from Europe to America was proposed. The engineers had to know the depth profile (起伏形状) of the route to estimate the length of cable that had to be manufactured.

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.
1. What the author discussed in the previous section is most probably about ____.
A) relationships between causes and results
B) classification of reasoning
C) some other common types of reasoning
D) some special type of reasoning
2. According to the passage, to do the "effect to effect" reasoning is to reason ____.
A) from cause to effect
B) from effect to cause
C) from effect to effect and on to cause
D) from effect to cause and on to another effect
3. A necessary cause is ____.
A) one without which it is impossible for the effect to occur
B) one of the causes that can produce the effect
C) one that is enough to make the effect occur
D) none of them
4. Your refrigerator is not working and you have found that the electric power has been cut off.
The power failure is a ____.
A) necessary cause B) sufficient cause
C) contributory cause D) none of them
5. This passage mainly discusses ____.
A) causal reasoning B) classification of cause
C) various types of reasoning D) the causal process
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.
Another common type of reasoning is the search for causes and results. We want to know whether cigarettes really do cause lung cancer, what cause malnutrition(营养不良), the decay of cities, or the decay of teeth. We are equally interested in effects: what is the effect of sulphur or lead in the atmosphere, of oil spills and raw sewage (污水、污物)in rivers and the sea, of staying up late on the night before an
examination?
注:1.reasoning 推理
2.第一句 Another...下结论,是主题句
3.第二、三句 We want to ...an examination?是举例,可以略读
4.malnutrition 中"mal"是表示"不好"的前缀;overnutrition 营养过剩
Causal reasoning may go from cause to effect or from effect to cause. Either way, we reason from what we know to what we want to find out. Sometimes we reason from an effect to a cause and then on to another effect. Thus, if we reason that because the lights have gone out, the refrigerator won't work we first relate the effect (lights out) to the cause (power off) and then relate that cause to another effect. This kind of reasoning is called, for short, effect to effect. It is quite common to reason through an extensive chain of causal relations. When the lights go out we might reason in the following causal chain: lights out-power off-refrigerator not working -temperature will rise-milk will sour. In other words, we diagnose (判定)a succession of effects from the power failure, each becoming the cause of the next.
注:1.causal 原因的,因果关系的

Causes are classified as necessary, sufficient, or contributory(起辅助作用的). A necessary cause is one which must be present for the effect to occur, as combustion (燃烧),is necessary to drive a gasoline engine. A sufficient cause is one which can produce an effect unaided (独自的), though there may be more than one sufficient cause: a dead battery is enough to keep a car from starting, but faulty spark plugs(火花塞)or an empty gas tank will have the same effect. A contributory cause is one which helps to produce an effect but cannot do so by itself, as running through a red light may help cause an accident, though other factors --- pedestrians (行人) or other cars in the intersection-must also be present.
注:intersection 交叉路口 inter+section
In establishing or refuting (驳斥,反斥) a causal relation it is usually necessary to show the process by which the alleged (所宣称的,所指称的) cause produces the effect. Such an explanation is called a causal process.
注:在证实或驳斥因果关系需要把推理过程显示出来,如灯灭了,牛奶变酸:灯灭了-停电-冰箱不工作-温度上升-牛奶变酸

We are equally interested in effects: what is the effect of sulphur or lead in the atmosphere, of oil spills and raw sewage (污水、污物)in rivers and the sea, of staying up late on the night before an examination?

Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:
I hear many parents complaining that their teen-age children are rebelling, I wish it were so. At your age you ought to be growing away from your parents. You should be learning to stand on your own two feet. But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are all taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of striking out boldly on their own, most of them are clutching at(attempting to seize) one another's hands for reassurance.
注:1.rebel 背叛、反叛
2.从第一句话看出本文是文科文章,所以从态度着手,I wish it were so 说明作者是负态度。
3.should 虚拟语气,表示负态度
4.reassurance=re+assure-ance 使确信;boldly 勇敢的;strike out 开辟
They claim they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music. But somehow they all end up crowded round listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in thus-and-such a way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoon(蚕茧)--- into a larger cocoon.
注:1.But 表明作者负态度
2.set off 开始 3.end up 结果
4.reason 用来解释前面的现象
5.把青少年从众心理比喻成蚕茧
It has become harder and harder for a teen-ager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way. Industry firmly carved out a teen-age market. These days every teen-ager can learn from the advertisements what a teen-ager should have and be. And many of today's parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children. All this adds up to a great barrier for the teen-ager who wants to find his or her own path.
注:1.第一句结论句,后面跟着解释
2.第二、三句 Industry... 工业广告对青少年的影响
3.第四句 And many of... 父母亲对青少年的影响
4.have come to 逐渐如何 award 奖励,鼓励; popularity 潮流,名声
But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you don't care to share at once with your classmates. Well, go to it. Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come-with the people who respect you for who you are. That's the only kind of popularity that really counts.

注:1.第一句提出现象,后面跟着对现象的解释,这种解释一般是考点
2.but 转折词和 might 虚拟语气都表达作者负态度
3.最后一句话 he has proved... 主题句
During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you're 'hot'. That's true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues (自言自语) as: 'Get up, John! You'll be late for work again!' The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.
注:1.peak 顶峰,高峰 2.forenoon 上午
You can' t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help. Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract (对抗) your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle, but you'll get up steam (鼓起干劲)
and work better at your low point.
注:1.第一句话结论句,后面跟着结论的解释
2.stay up 熬夜 3.rise 起床
4.本段说明针对能量周期我们怎么做
Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn (呵欠) and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.
注:1.Get off to a slow start 刚开始慢慢来
2.which引导定语从句其实是解释

一、时态、语态 时态、语态需要掌握的要点: 1.以下几类动词一般不能用于进行时,同样不用于完成进行时: (1)表示感知的动词:hear, feel, notice, recognize, see, taste, smell; (2)表示意愿、情感的动词:desire, dislike, forgive, hate, like, love, prefer, refuse, want, wish, fear, love, hate; (3)表示思考、看法的动词:believe, doubt, expect, forget, hope, feel, mean, know, agree, realize, mind, recall, recollect, remember, trust, suppose; (4)表示所有、占有的动词:belong to, owe, own, possess, hold(容纳); (5)其他动词:cost, appear, concern, contain, consist, deserve, matter, seem。 如: I'd say whenever you are going after something that is belonging to you, anyone who is depriving you of the right to have it is criminal. (1997年考研题, belong表示归属,不用于进行式) He was seeing somebody creeping into the house through the open window last night. (1990年考研题,see表示结果,不用于进行式) 2. 不用will/shall表达将来时的形式: (1)be going to表示现在的打算和意图; (2)arrive, come, drive, go, leave, retire, return, set off, start, take off等表示移位的动词的进行体表示按计划肯定要发生的将来动作; (3)be to (do)表示安排、计划、决定、命令或注定要发生的事,如: Greater efforts to increase agricultural production must be made if food shortage is to be avoided. (4)be about to (do)表示将要(做),如: Marlin is a young man of independent thinking who is not about to pay compliments to his political leaders. (5)be on the point /verge of (doing)表示"马上就要",一般不与表示将来的时间状语连用; (6)be, begin, come, depart, get off, go, leave, return, start的一般现在时表示按日历或时刻表要发生的将来动作或事件,如: If you want your film to be properly processed, you'll have to wait and pick it up on Friday, which is the day after tomorrow. (画线部分一般不用will be) (7)在时间、条件、让步从句中,一般现在时代替将来时,但要注意区别从句的类型,如: I don't know where he will go tomorrow. 我不知道他明天去哪儿。(宾语从句) I'll tell him when you will ring again. 我告诉他你什么时候再来电话。(宾语从句) 比较:I'll tell him when you ring again.你再打电话时我告诉他。(状语从句) (8)在make sure, make certain, see (to it) 后的that从句中,谓语动词用一般现在时代替将来时,如: See to it that you include in the paper whatever questions they didn't know the answer to last time. (include 不能用will include或其他形式) 3.完成时是时态测试的重点,注意与完成时连用的句型和时间状语: (1)by/between/up to/till +过去时间、since、by the time/when +表示过去发生情况的从句,主句用过去完成时。如: We had just had our breakfast when an old man came to the door. Between 1897 and 1919 at least 29 motion pictures in which artificial beings were portrayed had been produced. (表示1919年时已发生的情况) (2)by +将来时间、by the time/ when +谓语动词是一般现在时的从句,主句用将来完成时。如: By the time you arrive in London, we will have stayed in Europe for two weeks. I hope her health will have improved greatly by the time we come back next year. (3)by now、since +过去时间、in/during/for/over/the past/last few(或具体数字)years/days/months,主句用现在完成时, 但在it is +具体时间since/before这一句型中,主句更多的时候不用完成时。如: The changes that howe taken place place in air travel during the last sixty years would have seemed completely impossible to even the most brilliant scientists at the turn of the 19th century. It is four years since John left school. (4)在It is the +序数词/形容词最高级+that的定语从句中,谓语动词常用现在完成时。如: It isn't the first time that I have found myself in an embarrassing situation. (5)在no sooner…than…, hardly/scarcely…when/before…句型中,主句常用过去完成时。 (6)其他与完成时连用的时间状语:all this while, all this year, for some time, so far, already, before, just, long, yet等。 4.完成进行时指动作在完成时的基础上还要继续下去。如: The company has been promising a rise in salary for ages, but nothing has happened. The school board listened quietly as John read the demand that his followers had been demonstrating for. 时态、语态答题思路: (1)先根据选项的区别点确定考题要点为时态,然后回到题句中寻找给出的或暗示的时间状语,缩小选择范围,进而选出正确答案; (2)根据谓语动词与句子主语或非谓语动词与其逻辑主语的关系,确定句子是主动语态还是被动语态。 二、不定式 1.不定式做主语 (1)做形式主语的代词: 不定式做主语, 通常用it充当形式主语, 把做主语的不定式短语后置。 如: It took me only five minutes to finish the job. To be frank, it is a great relief to have the task fulfilled in so short a time. (2)引导逻辑主语的介词: 不定式的逻辑主语一般由介词for引导,但下列表示人的性格行为特征的形容词做表语时, 不定式的逻辑主语则由of引导: absurd, bold, brave, courageous, careful, careless, clever, wise, foolish, silly, stupid, good, nice, kind, thoughtful, considerate, greedy, generous, honest, modest, polite, rude, cruel, selfish, lazy, wicked, wrong。如: Experts say walking is one of the best ways for a person to stay healthy. It's clever of you to have invented such a device. (3)不定式做主语补足语: 掌握常用不定式做主语补足语的句型。注意不定式表示的动作发生的时间,并采用相应形式。如: said reported thought be to do sth. believed known supposed Byron is said to have lived on vinegar and potatoes. The bank is reported in the local newspaper to have been robbed in broad daylight yesterday. 2.不定式做宾语 (1)必须接不定式做宾语的动词: 掌握要求接不定式做宾语的动词: agree, afford, aim, arrange, appear, ask, attempt, choose, claim, decide, desire, determine, expect, fail, guarantee, hope, endeavor, intend, long, mean, manage, offer, ought, plan, pledge, pretend, prepare, promise, proceed, prove, resolve, refuse, request, swear, tend, try, venture, wait, wish。如: Even though the children pretended to be asleep, the nurses were not deceived when they came into the room. 注意: 1)有的动词要求特殊疑问词+不定式做宾语, 这类动词有: consider, discover, explain, forget, guess, know, learn, observe, remember, see, tell, understand, wonder,如: While still a young boy, Bizet knew how to play the piano well and as he grew older, he wrote operas, the most famous of which is Carmen. 2)如果该特殊疑问词在不定式中做介词宾语, 介词往往置于该特殊疑问词的前面。如: The professor can hardly find sufficient grounds on which to base his argument in favor of the new theory. Without facts, we cannot form worthwhile opinion for we need to have factual knowledge upon which to base our thinking. (2)可以用不定式做宾语补足语(复合宾语)的动词: 下列动词可以用不定式做宾语补足语(复合宾语): advise, allow, ask, beg, cause, command, compel, enable, determine, encourage, expect, feel, find, force, hate, have, hear, help, inform, invite, let, like, make, mean, need, notice, notify, oblige, order, permit, persuade, remind, request, require, see, send, teach, tell, tempt, trouble, urge, want, warn, watch, wish。 注意:画线动词后面的不定式不带to。 如: Because of the recent accidents, our parents forbid my brother and me to swim in the river unless someone agrees to watch over us. 3.不定式做定语 (1)被修饰的名词前有序数词、形容词最高级或next, last, only, not a, the, very等限定词时,该名词用不定式做定语。如: the first woman to set foot on the moon 第一个登上月球的女性 (2)如果其动词要求不定式做宾语,相应的名词一般用不定式做定语。如: tendency to do→tend to do, decision to do→decide to doThis book is an attempt to help you use English and recognize how it is used. (3)如果其形容词形式要求接不定式做补语,相应的名词一般用不定式做定语。如: ambition to do "干……的雄心"→be ambitious to do"有雄心干……" curiosity to do "对……的好奇心"→be curious to do"对……好奇" ability to do"做……的能力"→able to do"有能力做……" According to Darwin, random changes that enhance a species' ability to survive are naturally selected and passed on to succeeding generation. (4)表示方式、原因、时间、机会、权利等名词用不定式做定语,这些名词包括: way, method, reason, time, place, chance, occasion, opportunity, evidence, power, right, movement, drive (运动),effort等。如: I worked so late in the office last night that I hardly had time to catch the last bus. We appreciate your efforts to bring about a comprehensive solution to the existing problem. (5)不定代词something, nothing, little, much, a lot习惯上用不定式做定语。如: Though we have made great progress, there is still much to be improved. 4.不定式做状语 不定式做状语主要表示目的、程度、结果、方式。 (1)in order to(do), so as to(do)结构引导目的状语,so as to不能置于句首。如: To succeed in a scientific research project, one needs to be pesistent. I advise them to withdraw so as not to get involved. (2)so…as to, such…as to, enough…to, too…to结构做程度状语。如: The solution works only for couples who are self-employed, don't have small children and get along well enough to spend most of their time together. The vocabulary and grammatical differences between British and American English are so trivial and few as hardly to be noticed. (3)不定式做结果状语只能出现在句子的末尾,表示不愉快的结果,有时用only加强语气。 常见的不定式动词有find, hear, see, be told, form, give, make, produce等。如: Greatly agitated, I rushed to the apartment and tried the door, only to find it locked. (4)not/never too… to, too… not to, but/only too…to, too ready/eager/apt/inclined to 表示肯定意义。如: I am only too pleased to hear from you further. 能再听到你的消息,我太高兴了。 三、动名词 1.必须接动名词做宾语的动词 牢记下列要求接动名词做宾语的动词: acknowledge, advocate, anticipate, appreciate, advise, avoid, admit, confess, consider, defend, delay, deny, dislike, enjoy, escape, excuse, fancy, favor, finish, forgive, imagine, include, involve, justify, keep mind, miss, mention, pardon, practice, postpone, permit, report, resent, resume, recall,recollect,risk, resist, suggest, tolerate。如: Although a teenager, Fred could resist being told what to do and what not to do. I appreciate having been given the opportunity to study abroad two years ago. 2.动名词做介词短语 考生尤其要识别下列短语中的to是介词,不是不定式符号: object to, resort to, react to, contribute to, look forward to, be accustomed to, be committed to, be exposed to, be subjected to, be devoted to, be dedicated to, be opposed to, be reconciled to, be contrary to, be (get) used to, come close to, get down to, give oneself up to, prefer…to, see to, set to, take to, in addition to, with regard to, with a view to, on the way to。如: There was no sign that Mr.Jospin, who keeps a firm control on the party despite having resigned from leadership of it, would intervene personally. Our modern civilization must not be thought of as having been created in a short period of time. Nowhere in nature is aluminum found free, owing to its always being combined with other elements, most commonly with oxygen. As the children become financially independent of the family, the emphasis on family financial security will shift from protection to saving for the retirement years. Everyone with half an eye on the unemployment figures knew that the assertion about economic recovery being just around the corner was untrue. 四、分词 分词起形容词和副词的作用,在句中做定语或状语。在概念上考生应清楚: ● 现在分词表示主动,表示动作在进行。 ● 过去分词表示被动,表示动作结束了的状态或结果。 1.分词做定语,弄清现在分词与过去分词的区别 分词短语做定语相当于省略了的定语从句,考生应掌握: (1)现在分词与被修饰词之间具有主动意义。如: It's easy to blame the decline of conversation on the pace of modern life and on the vague changes taking place in our ever-increasing world.(相当于the changes which take place...) There was a very interesting remark in a book by an Englishman that I read recently giving what he thought was a reason for this American characteristic.(相当于which gave...) How many of us attending, say, a meeting that is irrelevant to us would be interested in the discussion?(相当于How many of us who will attend...) (2)过去分词与被修饰词之间具有被动意义。如: Good news was sometimes released prematurely, with the British recapture of the port announced half a day before the defenders actually surrendered. (相当于…recapture of the port which had been announced…) Just as the value of a telephone network increases with each new phone added to the system, so does the value of a computer system increase with each program that turns out. (相当于…each new phone which is added to…) The author gave a detailed description based on his personal observation of nature. (相当于…description which was based on…) (3)下列不及物动词也以过去分词形式做定语或表语,但不具有被动意义: deceased, departed, elapsed, faded, fallen, gone, grown-up, retired, returned, risen, set, vanished, much-travelled, newly arrived, recently come。如: an escaped prisoner一个逃犯 a retired worker一位退休工人 a faded curtain一个褪了色的窗帘 a newly arrived student一个新来的学生 2.分词做状语,注意区分分词的一般式与完成式 (1)表示时间,多置于句首,注意如果分词表示的动作的时间先于谓语动词,要用完成式。如: Having completed one task, we started on another one. (complete先于start之前发生) (2)表示原因,置于句首句尾均可,根据情况有时要用完成式,有时用一般式。如: He wasn't asked to take on the chairmanship of the society, being considered insufficiently popular with all members. There seemed little hope that the explorer, having been deserted in the tropical forest, would find his way through it. (3)表示伴随、方式,置于句尾,用分词的一般式。如: Helen borrowed my dictionary the other day saying that she would return it soon. Anna was reading a piece of science fiction, completely lost to the outside world. (4)表示结果,置于句尾,用分词的一般式。如: The city found itself in a crisis situation last summer when the air conditioning on dozens of the new buses broke down, them unusable. (5)表示补充说明(同位),置于句尾,用分词的一般式。如: The article opens and closes with descriptions of two news reports, each making one major point in contrast with the other. Ford tried dividing the labor, each worker assigned a separate task. 3.分词的独立主格结构 分词的逻辑主语一般为句子的主语,否则分词短语要有自己的逻辑主语,称为分词独立主格结构。分词独立主格结构只是句子的一个部分,但在翻译时经常译成独立的句子,考生要注意英汉两种语言在结构上的区别。如: All flights having been canceled because of the snowstorm, we decided to take the train. Darkness setting in, the young couple lingered on merrymaking. 4.分词做表语和补语,尤应注意由使役动词变来的分词的形式 (1)现在分词表示主语或宾语的特征,多以事物做(逻辑)主语。如: His victory in the final was no more convincing than I had expected. (2)过去分词表示主语或宾语所处的状态或对某事的心理反应和感受,多以人做(逻辑)主语。如: These students are quick at learning. We'll have them trained in new methods. People cannot but feel puzzled. For they simply cannot understand how he could have made such a stupid mistake. 五、非谓语动词的其他考点 1.接不定式或动名词做宾语都可以,但在意思上有区别的动词的用法 mean to do想要(做某事) propose to do 打算(做某事) mean doing意味(做某事) propose doing建议(做某事) forget to do忘记(要做的事) remember to do记得(要做某事) forget doing忘记(已做的事) remember doing记得(已做过的事) go on to do继而(做另一件事) stop to do停下来去做另一件事 go on doing继续(做原来的事) stop doing停止正在做的事 regret to do(对将要做的事)遗憾 regret doing(对已做过的事)后悔 如: Mr. Jankin regretted having blamed his secretary for the mistake, for he later discovered it was his own fault. The boy is constantly being told not to scratch the paint off the wall, but he goes on doing it all the same. 2.不定式的习惯用法 句型:cannot help but do cannot but do cannot choose but do can do nothing but do have no choice/alternative but to do 上述句型的意思接近,即"不得不做"、"不禁做"、"不由自主地做"、"不能不做"、"只能做"。其共同的特点是都有一个否定词和but。如: Nobody can help but be fascinated by the world into which he is taken by the science fiction.When I consider how talented he is as a painter, I cannot help but believe that the public will appreciate his gift. 3.动名词的习惯用法 句型:be busy/active doing sth. have difficulty/trouble/problem doing sth. It's no good/use/picnic doing sth. have a good/great/wonderful time doing sth. spend/waste time doing sth. There is no point/sense/harm/ use doing sth. cannot help doing sth. There is no doing sth. I know it isn't important but I can't help thinking about it. Alice was having trouble controlling the children because there were so many of them. There is no use crying over spilt milk. 4.there be 非谓语动词的用法 (1)做宾语时取决于谓语动词的持续要求。如: The students expected there to be more reviewing classes before the final exams. (expect要求接不定式做宾语) (2)做目的状语或程度状语时用for there to be,做其他状语用there being。如: For there to be successful communication, there must be attentiveness and involvement in the discussion itself by all present. (for there to be…在句中做目的状语) It isn't cold enough for there to be a frost tonight, so I can leave Jim's car out quite safely. (for there to be…在句中做程度状语) There being no further questions, we'll stop here today. (there being…做原因状语) (3)引导主语用for there to be。如: It is unusual for there to be no late comers today. (4)做除for外的介词宾语,用there being。如: He would always ignore the fact of there being such a contradiction in his inner thought. 六、虚拟语气 1.主从句谓语动词的时态 (1)掌握主从句谓语动词的规范搭配: 主句 从句 与现在事实相反 would/情态动词过去式+do were (不分人称)/did 与过去事实相反 would/情态动词过去式+have done had done 与将来事实相反 would/情态动词过去式+do should do 如: If the doctor had been available, the child could not have died. There is a real possibility that these animals could be frightened, should there be a sudden loud noise. (2)区分主从句表示的不同时间概念: 主从句谓语动词所指时间不同,这叫做错综时间条件句,动词形式应根据实际情况来调整。如: Had it not been for the timely investment from the general public, our company would not be so thriving as it is. (主句与现在事实相反,从句与过去事实相反) Had Paul received six more votes in the last election, he would be our chairman now. (主句与现在事实相反,从句与过去事实相反) (3)识别事实和假设混合句: Your math instructor would have been happy to give you a make-up examination had you gone and explained that your parents were ill at the time. (句子前半部分为假设情况,而"父母病了"是事实)
I would have gone to visit him in the hospital had it been at all possible, but I was fully occupied the whole of last week. (前半部分为假设,后半部分是事实) 2.名词性从句的虚拟形式 名词性从句是指宾语从句、主语从句、表语从句和同位语从句。从句的谓语动词需用(should+)动词原形表示虚拟。考生应熟悉: (1)下列动词做谓语时,that宾语从句中的动词用虚拟形式: desire, advise, recommend, command, direct, order, ask, demand, request, require, insist, maintain, move, propose, prefer, urge, vote。如: In the past men generally preferred that their wives work in the home. I move that he be discharged for his serious mistake. (2)下列形容词和分词做表语或补语时,that主语从句中动词用虚拟形式: advisable, desirable, insistent, preferable, urgent, appropriate, compulsory, crucial, essential, imperative, important, necessary, obligatory, possible, probable, proper, vital, advised, arranged, commanded, demanded, desired, ordered, proposed, recommended, requested, required, suggested。如: The board deem it urgent that these files should be printed right away. It is essential that all these figures be checked twice. (3)下列名词接同位语从句或表语从句时,从句中动词用虚拟形式: insistence, preference, recommendation, suggestion, proposal, motion, desire, re-quirement, request, order, necessity, importance, regulation, rule, resolution, understanding。如: John Wagner's most enduring contribution to the study of Afro-American poetry is his insistence that it be analyzed in a religious, as well as worldly, frame of reference. They keep telling us it is of utmost importance that our representative be sent to the conference on schedule. 3.含蓄虚拟条件句的谓语动词形式 含蓄虚拟语气是指假设条件不通过if从句表达,而是暗含在其他结构中。考生应熟悉: (1)连词but, but that, or, or else;副词otherwise, unfortunately等表示转折假设。如: A safety analysis would have identified the target as a potential danger. Unfortunately, it was never done. Victor obviously doesn't know what's happened; otherwise he wouldn't have made such a stupid remark. (2)介词短语暗含假设条件,常用的有:without, but for, under more favorable conditions等。如: But for the English examination I would have gone to the concert last Sunday. (3)intended/meant/hoped/wished/planned或was/were +不定式完成式或had intended/meant/planned/hoped/wished +不定式一般式暗示虚拟语气。如: I intended to have called on you, but I was busy at that time. (4)情态动词完成式暗示虚拟语气。如: I should have called to make an airline reservation, but I didn't. 4.常用虚拟形式的句型 (1)从句中动词用过去式或过去完成式表示虚拟的句型: would rather would as soon as though suppose… had rather would sooner as if supposing… If only… It is (high) time that…(从句中动词只用过去式) 如: His wife would rather they didn't talk about the matter any more. I'd rather you went by train, because I can't bear the idea of your being in an airplane in such bad weather. If I were in a movie, then it would be about time that I buried my head in my hands for a cry. My father always talks as though he were addressing a public meeting. (2)If it were not for… (与现在事实相反) If it had not been for… (与过去事实相反) 相当于but for。如: If it had not been for his help (= but for his help), we would not have succeeded. (3)If only…谓语动词视情况选用适当的形式。如: If only the committee would approve the regulations and put them into effect as soon as possible. (4)lest/for fear that/in case 从句谓语用(should+)动词原形。如: The mad man was put in the soft-padded cell lest he injure himself. (5)whether…or…有时谓语用be的原形,引导让步虚拟从句,这种用法经常采用倒装结构。如: Church as we use the word refers to all religious institutions, be they Christian, Islamic, Buddhist, Jewish, and so on. The business of each day, be it selling goods or shipping them, went quite smoothly.
