2013年山东高考英语作文题目:给美国朋友Tom回信

第二节:写作(满分30分)

假设你是新华中学的学生李华,你的美国朋友Tom一周前给你发电子邮件,询问你暑假里的打算,但你因准备期末考试未能及时回复。请根据以下要点给他回邮件:

1. 未及时回复的原因;

2. 你假期的打算(如做兼职、旅行、做志愿者等)。

注意: 1. 次数:120~150;

2. 可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。

【试题点评】

今年的书面表达题目延续山东省一贯的提纲作文命题习惯,时隔一年之后重新回到“书信题”的大框架中,考了一篇“以道歉信为外衣,以活动安排为主体段”的提纲作文,相当于10年山东卷(道歉信)和07年四川卷(假期安排)和合体。这种作文是我们平时经常练习的,因此套路很完善、套话很丰富。此外,本文中需要同学们翻译的难句不多,因此,只要在备考过程中有意识地了解过高考英语作文的提分方法,掌握了常用的亮点词汇、加分句型和过渡词,并加以针对性训练,这道题目应该不难写。

【经典套路】

第一段:问候+写信背景+写信目的

第二段:“道歉”部分(相当于“写信背景”)

第三段:“假期安排”部分

第四段:补充说明+客套话

【高分范文】

Dear Tom,

How are you doing? (问候) You asked me in your last letter about my plan for the coming summer vacation.(写信背景) I am sorry that I didn’t reply without delay.(写信目的)

How I wish I would read and reply your email as soon as I received it. However, I was busy preparing for my final exam at that time, which is vital for me. As a result, I had no choice but to completely focus on my study. I believe that if you were me, you would make the same choice.(第二段为道歉信常见套路)

By the way, I have a busy schedule for my summer vacation.(主题句) First and foremost, I would do a part time job, so that my interpersonal skills would be improved.(拓展句1) Additionally, I will take a short trip to Beijing to take a summer course in the New Oriental School.(拓展句2) Last but not least, maybe I will work as a volunteer for the school as a teaching assistant.(拓展句3)

These are my plan for the summer vacation. What’s yours? I am looking forward to your earliest reply.(以合理的客套话结尾)

高考英语作文 世界无烟日 World No Tobacco Day

This years observance of World No Tobacco Day focuses on "Gender and tobacco, with an emphasis on marketing to women".

今年的世界无烟日,关注“性别与烟草,强调对女性的营销”。

Although fewer than 1 out of 10 women are smokers, that still adds up to an estimated 200 million women around the world. Moreover, that number could grow, since the tobacco industry is spending heavily on advertisements that target women and associate tobacco use with beauty and liberation.

虽然不到10名女性中有1名女性吸烟者,但仍有200000000名妇女在全世界估计有名妇女被吸烟。而且,这个数字可能会增长,因为烟草业在广告上投入巨资,针对妇女和联想烟草使用的广告与美和解放。

According to a recent study by the World Health Organization (WHO), the number of girls and boys who smoked was about equal in half the 151 countries surveyed. This finding is even more worrisome since young people who smoke are likely to continue in adulthood.

据世界卫生组织最近的一项调查显示,有一半的女孩和男孩在调查的151个国家中大约有一半是平等的。这一发现更令人担忧,因为吸烟的年轻人很可能在成年后继续继续下去。

Evidence indicates that the prevalence rate of tobacco use among women is on the rise in some countries. Governments everywhere must take action to protect women from tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship, as stipulated in the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control.

有证据表明,在一些国家,妇女使用烟草的患病率在上升。各国政府都必须采取行动,保护妇女不受烟草控制的“世界卫组织公约”规定的烟草广告、促销和赞助。

The Convention also calls on Governments to protect women from second-hand tobacco smoke -- especially in countries where women feel powerless to protect themselves and their children. As WHO data show, of the 430,000 adults who die each year from second-hand smoke, nearly two thirds are women.

该公约还呼吁各国政府保护妇女免受二手烟草烟雾的保护,特别是在妇女认为自己无力保护自己和子女的国家。正如世卫组织数据显示,每年死于二手烟的430000名成年人中,有近三分之二名是女性。

Around the world, more than 1.5 million women die each year from tobacco use. Most of these deaths occur in low-and middle-income countries. Without concerted action, that number could rise to 2.5 million women by the year 2030.

在世界各地,每年有超过1500000名妇女死于烟草使用。大多数这些死亡发生在低收入和中等收入国家。如果没有协调一致的行动,这一数字可能会上升到2500000,2030岁的女性。

We must turn back the global tobacco epidemic. On World No Tobacco Day, I urge all Governments to address this public health threat. Tobacco use is not stylish or empowering. It is ugly and deadly.

我们必须把全球烟草流行化。在世界无烟日,我呼吁各国政府应对这一公共卫生威胁。烟草使用是不时尚的或授权的。它是丑陋和致命的。

Would My Father Have to Operate父亲得动手术吗

I was waiting for the doctor to finish his examination.I was worried and nervous.Would my father have to operate?Would a blood transfusion be necessary?What would he have to say?

I felt much better after I spoke to Dr Lin.I was certain that my father would be up and around again very soon.Hes seventy five years old now,but he can still live for a long time if he takes good care of himself.

我在等医生来完成他的检查,我很担心,紧张,我父亲必须要手术吗?输血是必要的吗?他要说什么?

篇3:高考英语满分作文Neverjudgeabookbyitscover不要用它的封面来判断一本书

全文共 1463 字

+ 加入清单

还记得这句英文谚语"Never judge a book by its cover"吗 下面四幅图就描述了这样一个故事.假设你是第一幅图中左边的男孩,站在右边的是你的朋友Jack,你的妈妈一开始因为他的穿着打扮很不喜欢他,可是后来又发生了什么呢

请根据图画写一篇日记,并适当加以评论,发表自己的看法.

词数:100

Possible Version:

March 21th Sunday Sunny

My new friend Jack is a fashion follower who often wears strange clothes and long hair. But my mother drove him away from our flat at the first sight yesterday. She thought he was a bad person, although she didnt know him at all.

However, mom totally changed her mind this morning. When we were walking down the street near our home, we witnessed an accident. A boy was hit by a car when he was walking across the road with headphones. Many people saw it, but at first no one knew how to help. Then someone rushed forwards and covered the boy with his coat to keep warm. He looked after him well until the ambulance came. It was Jack! His calmness and seasoned first aid skills moved mom. She went and apolpgized to Jack for her former attitute, and told him that he was always welcome to our home.

That gives me a lesson. The appearance may reflect ones interest, but it isnt the symbol of ones quality. We should never judge a book with its cover.

可能版本:

三月二十一日星期日晴

我的新朋友杰克是一个时尚的追随者经常穿着奇怪的衣服,长长的头发。但是我妈妈昨天第一眼就把他从我们的公寓里赶走了。她认为他是个坏人,虽然她根本不认识他。

然而,今天早上妈妈完全改变了主意。当我们走在我们家附近的街道时,我们目睹了一场事故。一个男孩被一辆汽车撞在马路上时,戴着耳机。很多人看到它,但在第一,没有人知道如何帮助。然后有人冲了上去,用外套盖住了那个男孩,以保持温暖。他很好的照顾了他,直到救护车来了。这是杰克!他冷静和老练的急救技巧感动了妈妈。她为她以前对杰克的态度道歉,并告诉他,他总是欢迎我回家。

这给了我一个教训。外表可以反映一个人的兴趣,但这不是一个人素质的象征。我们决不应该用它的封面判断一本书。

(Mothers Eyes)

My mother has a pair of keen eyes which can speak. With her eyes,she observed my mood, gave me courage and made me strong. Therefore, I could face difficulties.

When I was a baby learning to walk, my mother always lent me a hand and encouraged me to get up while I fell down. As I finally threw myself into her arms, her eyes smiled with praise. Later as I grew up, I met with more difficulties. But whenever I was frustrated, my mothers eyes alwaysgave me hope and encouragement. Once I failed in exams, my mother encouraged me to find out the reasons. Instead of blaming me she pushed me to do better. At last I overcame the difficulty. Now I have grown up and become more independent, but whenever I come across setbacks, my mothers eyes are always with me encouraging me wherever I go.

母亲有一双敏锐的、会说话的眼睛。那双眼睛能洞察我的心情,给我鼓励,促我坚强,因此我能面对一切困难。

孩提学步时,妈妈总是帮助我,鼓励我摔倒了就爬起来。最后我晃晃悠悠地扑进她怀抱时,她的双眼充满了赞扬之情。成长过程中,我遇到了很多困难,但灰心失望时,妈妈的双眼总给我以希望和鼓励。一次我考试不及格,妈妈没有责备我,而是鼓励我找出原因,提高我的成绩。最后我终于度过了难关。现在,我长大了,不用再让她操心了。但每当遇到挫折时,妈妈的眼睛总是伴随着我,给我鼓励。

【例文】

Should Yuanmingyuan Be Rebuilt?

Yuanmingyuan, “Garden of all gardens”, was burnt and fell into ruins in 1860. Recently my classmates had a discussion about whether it should be rebuilt or not.

Supporters of rebuilding the garden say only by doing so can we see the original sight of the garden, which reflects the Chinese civilization. And it will be another place of interest for tourists. If partly rebuilt, it will provide a comparison and help us remember the history.

Those who disagree think it more reasonable to keep the garden like this. The ruins will remind us of the past. We should never forget the history. Other buildings like Palace Museum and Summer Palace can also be symbols of the Chinese culture, so it isn’t necessary to rebuild this garden. Some also worry that the environment will be destroyed when the construction goes on in this district.

Personally, it is advisable to rebuild Yuanmingyuan , which will add beauty to the city . What’s more , the new scenic spot will no doubt promote the economic development of the local.

【译文】

应该重建圆明园?

圆明园,“所有园林花园”,被烧毁成废墟1860年下降。最近我的同学们进行了关于是否应该重建与否的讨论。

重建的花园支持者说,只有这样,我们才能看到花园的,它反映了中国文明的原始景象。这将是一个供游客感兴趣的地方。如果部分重建,它将提供一个比较和帮助我们记住历史。

谁不同意那些认为较合理的保持这样的花园。该遗址将提醒过我们。我们决不能忘记历史。如故宫博物院,颐和园等其他建筑物也可以是中华文化的象征,所以没有必要重建此园。有些人还担心会破坏环境建设的推移,当在此区。

个人而言,这是明智的重建圆明园,这将增加美丽的城市。更重要的是,新的景区,无疑会促进地方经济发展。

A teacher just likes a shining star to students. Miss Fu, one of my English teacher, is a shining star in my life.

I happened to be in Miss Fus class when I began my high school years. At that time, I dared not speak English aloud in public, for I was shy and my pronunciation and intonation were poor. Afraid of being laughed at, I never put up my hand to answer the questions Miss Fu raised in class, even if I had some good answers to them. For a time, I even lost interest in practising spoken English. When Miss Fu found out the reason, she encouraged me to speak. First she bought me some English tapes and told me to listen to them carefully, and try to recite them. In class, I was often asked questions and given a lot of chances to practise speaking.Little by little, I became brave enough to speak, and was not afraid to speak English before others. Miss Fu smiled sweetly when she heard the news that I had been chosen to take part in an important oral English contest.

Whenever I look at the stars in the sky, I recognize the brightest one ---- the symbol of Miss Fu in my heart. Miss Fu will always be a shining star in my life!

What Lessons Should Be Learned From the Drought

The drought in the south-west China has lasts for several months, which makes people face water and food scarcity. We should learn lessons from it.

The drought can be cause by several factors. Firstly, about 63 percent of cities in China are facing water scarcity. The situation is worsened by pollution and industrialization. In addition, too many trees have been cut down, so forest coverage has been decreasing rapidly. Whats more, some water conservation projects havent been functioning properly, thus people there have had to rely more heavily on rainfall for their water supply. Most of Chinas irrigation systems are very old.

In order to prevent this case coming about again, we should improve our awareness of saving water, making proper use of water and recycling water. Meanwhile, we ought to plant more trees and protect environment to prevent loss of water and soil erosion. Of course, the governments should increase investment and repair water conservation projects as timely as possible.

篇14:2024年高考英语作文高分技巧精编

全文共 2596 字

+ 加入清单

导语:如果英语作文中,有要求要点的,一般打分时是踩点给分的,准确把握住要点,是高分的一个诀窍。下面是yjbys作文网小编为您收集整理的资料,希望对您有所帮助。

英语中,同一思想用不同句式表达,其效果会大不相同。要想写出好的文章,就要不断地变化句子的结构形式。

l、长短句交替使用

句子的长短是为表达思想服务的。英语短句结构简单,意思明白具有生动活泼而又干脆利索的表达效果,而长句结构复杂,信息丰富,能表达成熟的思想与复杂的概念。一味地使用长句或短句会使文章显得单调,乏味,从而影响文章的总体效果。科学地交替使用长短句使句子结构变化多样,不仅给文章带来顿挫起伏的语言美感,而且可以受到理想的修辞效果。请看下面的这段话:

She returned to her office.There was a note under the door. It was from Mr May.He said he was waiting for her in the coffee room.And he bad not found her sister.Hewas sorry to have missed her.

这段话用了一连串的短句,读起来单调呆板,平淡无味。为使文字更加生动,意思更加明确可改为:

When she returned to her office,the found a note from Mr May under the door.He said he was waiting for her in the coffee room and hadnt found her sister yet.Headded that he was sorry to have missed her.

修改后三个句子长短不一,读起来就给人以不同的感觉。

又如《大学英语》第一册第十课 Going Home,当汽车驶至 Brunsnick,车上的年轻人看见黄手帕时,出现了以下这两行文字:

Then,suddenly,all of the young people were up out of thelr seats,screamlng andshouting and cryin, doing small dances of joy.All except Vlngo.这两句话一长(23个词)一短(3个词),彼此衬托互为凸现。第一句的两个and和四个-ing词,把热闹、喧哗的气氛喧染极至,长句之后,蜂回路转,一个仅三个词的短句扑入读者的双目几乎沸腾的场面顿时凝固但其余音未绝,此时外表虽冷漠,内心却炙热难当。

2、句子开头的多样化

“主-谓-宾”、“主-系-表”是英语的基本句型,主语领先句也是用得最多的句型。写作中为避免形式单一,当句子可以用主语开头,同时又可以其它结构开头时,不妨变换一下。如:

(1)Defeated in the minor exchanges,I now play my queen of trumps.(分词短语做状语开头)

(2)There are two ways in which one can own a book.( there be句型开头)

(3)Equally important is a good habit of reading(表语开头)

以上各句都可以用主语开句,但在篇章中通过改变句子开头,文章就会疏落有致,语言形式丰富多采。

3、句子结构的多样化

写作中可以通过句型结构的变化来增添文采,强化表现力。如:

(l) The love of the liberty is the love of the others;the love of power ls thelove of ourselves.

(平行结构.这类结构整齐、紧凑;句子生动、鲜明,语义贯通、语势强劲有力。)

(2)The days when we suffered from oppression and exploitation are gone.(这样表达文字通顺,但语意不很突出。)

改为:Gone are the days when we suffered fron oppression andexploitation.

(采用倒装句结构后,充分体现出受剥削受压迫的人民解放后扬眉吐气的心情。)

附注:

Newspapers and Websites

Newspapers and websites are two major new media in the world today, both of which can provide us with lots of news and information. But theyre different in some ways.

Newspapers enjoy a longer history and often come out daily with more reliable news and information. They can be carried and read almost anywhere you like. So many people like reading them. But they can only contain texts and photos.

On the other hand, websites are quite new and popular, especially among young people. Websites have not only texts with pictures but also audios and videos, which makes stories more interesting. Whats more, they are updated from time to time. So the latest news is always seen on websites instead of in newspapers. But it is not quite convenient for people without a computer connected with the Internet to get information from websites.

【参考译文】

报纸和网站

报纸和网站是当今世界上的两大新兴媒体,它可以为我们提供大量的新闻和信息。但他们在某些方面不同。

报纸有着较长的历史,每天都会出现更可靠的新闻和信息。他们可以携带和阅读几乎任何地方你喜欢。这么多人喜欢读。但它们只能包含文本和照片。

另一方面,网站是新的和流行的,尤其是在年轻人。网站不仅有图片文字,还有音频和视频,这使得故事更有趣。更重要的是,他们不时更新。所以最新的新闻总是出现在网站上而不是报纸上。但是没有电脑连接的人从网站上获取信息并不太方便。

全文共 3250 字

+ 加入清单

As world leaders are in Copenhagen (哥本哈根)this month,talks about climate change are gathering steam. But is climate change the most pressing threat(威胁)for mankind?

Write an essay to show your opinions on the most immediate threat for mankind.

Directions:

1. About 200 words

2. Support your position with reasoning and examples.

3. Give the essay a proper title by yourself

Love Makes Beauty

With the fantastic spur both in industry and economy,the past 100 years has seen how modernization and civilization has affected mankind. Recently,Copenhagen is being a focus for its Climate Change Conference. A majority of people hold the belief that climate change is the pressing threat for mankind.

However,acknowledging the great abundance of harms that the changing climate will bring,I‘d say the most immediate threat is just ourselves. I always imagine a view of life filled with fresh air and various flowers swung in gentle wind. But the reality shows this is a real fantasy. With the fantastically developing industry and the rising number of personal cars,not only the air but also the water is at risk universally. For example,what used to be a pride for Ruianees was Tang River,the clean and clear mother river of Ruian. But with time going by,it was seriously polluted and gradually turned into the biggest block of development. What upsets us most is that such a situation is spreading countryside. It seems that citizens on the earth care little about their land,which directly causes further consequences.

How can we deal with environmental problems?There is no doubt that this topic is complicated and unstable as well. But the irreplaceable way,in my thought,is love,love for the earth. It is love that makes beauty,and nothing else will do.

Some say love is a river that drowns the tender reed;some say love is a hunger,an endless,aching need. I say love is a flower,and you,are the only seed.

Heal the world

Nowadays,world leaders are in Copenhagen talking about climate change. Who has such a strong power to gather them from busy work?It‘s our mother——the Earth that has told her kids to start to heal the environment for the pressing threats they are facing now.

It‘s commonly thought that lots of countries are blind to the protection of environment while developing the country. And as the quality of life has developed,many families have its own car. As a result,more and more CO2 has caused the earth to be a “Green House”。If no measure is taken,a large number of kids won’t see the lovely and beautiful snow in winter before long.

To my delight,some people have been concerned about the environment. The movie >is just a good example. It took me 150 minutes to watch the movie. At the same time,I spent a long time considering the meaning which the movie wants to tell people. When the world is at an end,can anyone heal themselves?It‘s obvious that the answer is No. It’s commonly accepted that what the director wants to tell people is that we should take measures to beautify the environment at once or we‘ll die soon.

In a word,the environment pollution is a matter of life and death——a matter no country can afford to ignore. People all over the world are supposed to spare no effort to heal the world. Let‘s take action from here and now!

篇20:暴力无助于减少种族偏见高考英语作文

全文共 2560 字

+ 加入清单

in some countries where racial prejudice is acute, violence has so come to be taken for granted as a means of solving differences, that it is not even questioned. what is really frightening, what really fills you with despair, is the realization that when it comes to the crunch, we have made no actual progress at all. we may wear collars and ties instead of war-paint, but our instincts remain basically unchanged. the whole of the recorded history of the human race, that tedious documentation of violence, has taught us absolutely nothing. we have still not learnt that violence never solves a problem but makes it more acute. the sheer horror, the bloodshed, the suffering mean nothing. no solution ever comes to light the morning after when we dismally contemplate the smoking ruins and wonder what hit us.

the truly reasonable men who know where the solutions lie are finding it harder and harder to get a hearing. they are despised, mistrusted and even persecuted by their own kind because they advocate such apparently outrageous things own kind because they advocate such apparently outrageous things as law enforcement. if half the energy that goes into violent acts were put to good use, if our efforts were directed at cleaning up the slums and ghettos, at improving living-standards and providing education and employment for all, we would have gone a long way to arriving at a solution. our strength is sapped by having to mop up the mess that violence leaves in its wake. in a welldirected effort, it would not be impossible to fulfil the ideals of a stable social programme. the benefits that can be derived from contructive solutions are everywhere apparent in the world around us. genuine and lasting solutions are always, possible, providing we work within the framework of the law.

before we can even begin to contemplate peaceful co-existence between the races, we must appreciate each other’s problems. and to do this, we must learn about them: it is a simple exercise in communication, in exchanging information, ‘talk, talk talk,’ the advocates of violence say, ‘all you ever do is talk, and we are none the wiser.’ it’s rather like the story of the famous barrister who painstakingly explained his case to the judge. after listening to a lengthy argument the judge complained that after all this talk, he was none the wiser. ‘possibly, my lord’ the barrister replied, ‘none the wiser, but surely far better informed.’ knowledge is the necessary prerequisite to wisdom: the knowledge that violence creates the evils it pretends to solve.
