篇5:2024年高三英语高考全国卷英语作文最后几天的备考资料

全文共 8048 字

+ 加入清单

全国英语作文最后几天的备考资料。备考目的性、指导性、猜押性都很强。最后几天一定

要看的。

一、全国卷书面表达分析

2015全国I:应用文、写信约稿、介绍美节日风俗和中学生生活。

2015全国II:应用文、邮件邀约、去敬老院陪老人过重阳节。

2014全国I:应用文、写信咨询、英语学习班广告的咨询。

2014全国II:应用文、报社正文、十年后的我

2013全国I:应用文、写信问是否接机(带着中国画)

2013全国II:应用文、写信让友代卖中国结

2012课标卷:应用文、写邮件、申请参加夏令营

2012大纲卷:应用文、邀请信、邀请外教参加生日聚会

二、综上分析,干货如下:

1.都是应用文。

说明文、议论文、夹叙夹议文不考,尤其要杜绝那些高大上的,平时经常训练的正反观点对

比的文章也要果断抛弃。

2.与学生生活、学习、交友息息相关。

生活相关:15I、15II、14II、13I、13II、12大纲

学习相关:14I、12

交友相关:12大纲

注意生活、学习、交友三大话题。有些作文也许会跨其中两个话题。凡是不符合这三个话题

的作文,高考最后这10几天少复习,甚至不复习的好。地震、环保、食品安全、雾霾、河流

空气污染、交通拥挤、良心道德、服不服等等的高大上,都抛弃吧(这些都是大学作文解决

的问题)。所以与学生生活、学习、交友相关的词汇、句式还是好好总结的。

3.渗透传统文化的元素。

传统文化:2015II重阳节、2013中国画。

这方面的词汇还是要适当准备一些滴。例如:paper cutting 剪纸,Lantern Festival 元

宵节, Mid-autumn Day 中秋节,tang yuan/ sweet rice dumpling 元宵,Chinese New Year’

s Eve 除夕,Dragon Boat Festival 龙舟节,DoubleNinth Festival 重阳节, Chinese tea

中国茶

4.生活、学习、交友三大话题·必须掌握的【词汇 + 短语】

①schools English newspaper,Chinese / foreign cultures, more information,

volunteer, great fun,opportunity, confidence in, experience,lecture,

excellence in, speech competitions, a better idea,

②be popular with/among,especially, exciting,excited, patiently,be

patient with,be interested in,the most important, various, outgoing,

successfully, successful, be good at/for, more than glad, be willing to help you

with,be familiar with,delicious, with joy

③welcome, spend their holidays,invite you to join us,make dumplings,intend

me a piece of advice, takeseriously,depend on, get a higher education,

improve ourselves,would like to, interview,I believe,learn a great deal

receive,have a good/wonderful time,benefit, benefit from,different,

give up, have a picnic, go to a museum, have lots of fun,take pains to improve,

get prepared for, be able to, get along well with,have a good command of,

appreciate, made up my mind to do, make a great difference (to someone), think

highly of, pay much attention to,take notice of,keep it in mind that,in

return, helpwith, feel nervous, make you familiar with, long to, broaden

my mind, have trouble doing,communicate,suffer from, speak English fluently,

visit some famous places, chat with, participate in, take part in, won prizes,

6.三大从句和非谓语的运用是必不可少的。每篇文章这两类至少运用一次。同学们都知道,

在此不必多说。

三、透过2015年全国I的作文,看清标准范文的猫腻

假定你是李华,你校英文报“外国文化”栏目拟刊登介绍美国节日风俗和中学生生活的短文。

请给美国朋友彼得写信约稿,要点如下:

1.栏目介绍; 2.稿件内容; 3.稿件长度:约400词;4.交稿日期:6月28日前。

注意:1.词数100左右。2.可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。3.开头语已为你写好。

Dear Peter,

Id like to ask you to write an article for our schools English newspaper.

下面把标准答案给与了分解,同学们务必要逐字逐句地研读,找出标准范文为什么这样

写,发现范文写作时的思考过程,挖掘范文和作文原题中的一一对等的字眼提示。通过研读

分析,再回扣题目本身。写作也就那么回事儿,其实一点也不难。希望同学们可以悟出基本

的写作思路、技巧。以下英语连起来就是标准范文。

称呼,已给:

Dear Peter,

开头语,已给:

Id like to ask you to write an article for our schools English newspaper.

开篇,介绍“外国文化”栏目概况 (要点1:点出栏目名称、特点popular、进行栏目介绍):

The “Foreign Cultures” section in our newspaper is very popular among us students.

It carries articles written by foreign friends about the cultures of their home

countries. (搭配be popular among、carry一词用得好、过去分词短语written by作后

置定语)

进行约稿 (写作目的,这可是正事儿):

Would you please write something about the culture in your part ofthe United States

稿件内容 (要点2):

And (and一词虽然简单,但用得巧妙,呈上衔接,过渡自然,读起来还有抑扬顿挫之感觉) we

would especially (强调递进) welcome articles about how Americans spend their holidays

and festivals (节日风俗,扣栏目) and the life of American high school students (中

学生生活,扣栏目).

适当拓展,根据字数灵活安排

You can write anything relevant so long as its interesting and informative. (高

级词汇、so long as好句式)

稿件长度 (要点3):

400 words would be fine.

交稿日期 (要点4):

Could we have your article before June 28

合适的结尾 (万能句式,一定背下):

Im looking forward to hearing from you.

Yours,

Li Hua

I’ve finally made my decision to go to America for further study after high school.

can experience American culture, and the other is that I can broaden my mind in this

country. But I have some worries. My English is a bit poor, especially spoken English.

I’m afraid I’ll have trouble communicating. Besides, I may suffer from heavy pressure

from college courses.

I hope you can offer me some practical advice.

Looking forward to your reply.

Dear Ms Li,

I am very happy to have you as our English teacher.

As the world is becoming a global village, English is getting more and more

important, so mastering English means we can see the world through a new window.

My English is just OK and the two main problems in my study are that I feel

it difficult to learn words by heart, and that I often feel nervous when speaking

English. I really hope that you can give me good advice on how to memorize new words.

Another suggestion is to give us more chances to practice speaking. I believe we can

make much progress in English with your help.

Thank you!

Li Hua

阅读下面的材料,根据要求作文。(60分)

美国有句谚语:“除了上帝,任何人都必须用数据来说话。”人们不能漠视数据,数据是科学的度量。

有学者认为,我们正处在一个数据时代。随着社交网络的逐渐成熟,移动带宽的迅速提升,云计算、物联网的应用多样,数据的运用和创新给公民、政府、社会带来了种种的挑战和变革。

上面的材料引发了你怎样的思考?请结合自己的体验与感悟,写一篇800字文章。

优秀作文素材

由于北方地区灰霾天气频发,被称为灰霾“元凶”的细颗粒物(PM2.5)受到空前关注。许多人都在呼吁政府尽早出台PM2.5的评价标准。环境监测标准将逐步与国际接轨,使监测结果与人民群众对青山绿水蓝天白云的切实感受更加接近。

生活的经验告诉我们,凡事要做到心中有数。有“数”的标准,未必是感观上的眼见为实,而可能是习惯于对科学数据的求证。在各类统计数据中,常见到表格、数据、箭头、报表,把它们准确制成了柱状图、折线图、曲线图,于是,人们觉得生活获得了实证性,或者说科学性。

数据让生活变得可测量,有时候,符号化、数据化的结果,有可能偏离生活的真实。近期的例子就是PM2.5。

空气质量监测结果与老百姓感受不符,已表现突出。在一些城市,空气质量优良率多年保持90%以上高比例,优秀空气天数也呈逐年大幅增长的趋势,而与数据上的“大好形势”不相符的是,人们抬头见到蓝天的次数并未增多,在一些“光灰”城市中,甚至连10米以外的风景也无法辨识。

很难说,数据不符合人们的感受,就是有意为之,或者是欺骗。普通人通过蓝天可见度来界定空气质量,而掌握专业知识和一系列指标、数据的人,则通过收集和分析数据来判断空气质量。前者是生活的直观,后者是逻辑的结论。你说看不见蓝天,他告诉你数据说“空气质量良好”,甚至当你肉眼见到蓝天白云,数据仍可能告诉你说“还有浮尘”。这就是生活与数据之间的距离。事实上,PM2.5本身就是数据之一,在它之后,随着技术的进步,很可能有更多的检测手段与数据被“发明”出来。

科学技术使得生活感受得到量化,因而可以被测量。这是现代社会的一个基本特征,生活的数据化也许更趋于精确,但也可能背离人们的直观感受。

数据化的生活与感受的生活之间的距离,将会永远存在,不可能真正一致。就环境监测标准而言,应尽可能地接近人们对蓝天白云的切实感受。

A Great Friend

As I am now a senior high school student, I have a great many friends, but there is one whom I prize over all the rest. I first made his acquaintance when I began to go to school. He has been my constant companion ever since.

Though he is serious in appearance, he never fails to be interesting. Often he is clever, sometimes even merry and gay. He is the most knowledgeable friend a person could have. He knows virtually every language of the world, all the events of history, and the words of all the great poets and philosophers. A kindly benefactor, he is admired and enjoyed by everyonewho makes his acquaintance.

To me, he has been a great teacher as well as a friend. He first taught methe secrets of my own language and then those of others. With these keys he showed us how to unlock all the arts and sciences of man.

My friend is endlessly patient. Dull though I may be, I can return to him again and again, and he is always ready to teach me. When I am bored,he entertains me. When I am dispirited, he lifts me up. When I am lonely, he keeps me company. He is a friend not only to me but to millions around the world. Shall I tell you his name? His name is “reading”。

篇13:圣诞节活动英语作文:美国怎么过圣诞?

全文共 6174 字

+ 加入清单

"We wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you a merry Christmas"Have you heard that song? Yup! Its Christmas time! This Christmas, I stayed with my "host family"1. It was an amazing experience to see how a typical American family would celebrate the biggest western festival of the year.

Christmas, like our Spring Festival, has a meaning in itself. Christmas Day, which is on December 25, is the birthday of Jesus Christ--the son of God. Thats why it is called Christmas. On that day, Christians would get together with their families to celebrate the birthday of Jesus. But nowadays, the religious meaning of Christmas has become less emphasized. To many families, it is just a time of family reunion and the ever-exciting present-giving.

Our school had been on winter vacation since December 11. I stayed at my friend, Stephen Stapczynskis house--his family was my "host family". Although Christmas was still more than ten days ahead, the festive spirit had already been teeming everywhere. The Christmas tree had already been set up, and on every windowsill, there were Christmas lights. On the first day I arrived at their house, Stephen and I helped Mrs. Stapczynski put decorations on the Christmas tree. The tree looked so nice with all the lights on and the beautiful ornaments dangling from its branches.

As Christmas came closer, the whole neighborhood had made preparations too. Some people would hold parties at their houses, inviting all their neighbors to come. So every night, if you went out, you would see a long line of cars parked in front of some house--a partys on!

Whats more, the Christmas decorations that some people put on their windows and in gardens were just amazing. On one night, we went out in our car for a "tour of lights". There was one street that was so famous for its lights that it got its way into the local paper. We had a hard time finding the well-hidden street, but it turned out to be worth the effort. Lights shone brightly in front of nearly every house, on trees, bushes, doors, windowseverywhere, taking different shapes, making it seem almost like daytime. Huge inflatable figures in the front gardens were waving to us: there were Santa Clauses2, of course, chuckling merrily away; and there were also other Christmas figures, like Rudolph3--the red-nosed reindeer--with his red nose gleaming ever so brightly; even Bart Simpson--a character in the famous comedy The Simpsons--had joined the jolly party, wearing a Santas hat. The street set off a lot of "ooh"s and "aah"s inside the car.4 When we left, there was a line of cars in the street, all there to see the lights.

Christmas is the time for exchanging presents. Stephen and Niko had been thinking about their Christmas lists (a list of things they wish "Santa"to give them for Christmas) for a long time. I didnt want to ask for anything, but the Stapczynskis were so kind to "force"me make one list as well (Mr. Stapczynski told me if I didnt make one he would chop off my legs). So I wrote down a couple of things that I would like to have, and gave the list to them--sorry, my mistake--to Santa.

Finally, Christmas Eve came. There was a special Christmas service at the church at 6 p.m. It was certainly a very interesting experience for me. The priest started the service reading and sang out extractions from a holy book--The Divine Liturgy. For several times, we would stand up and pray.

Sometimes, the church choir would start singing. The atmosphere was very quiet and holy. Then there was a ceremony called "The Receiving Communion". People waited in line to "receive"a spoonful of food from the priest. It was a very special Christmas tradition. The food was made from bread and wine. The bread represents the body of Jesus, and the wine represents his blood. After this ceremony, the priest had a speech. He reminded us not to forget the true meaning of Christmas, and let Jesus really live inside us--that is, to love the people around us wholeheartedly. I think that no matter if you are a Christian or not, this principle should be part of our lives. After the priest finished his speech, the part that I enjoyed most came: Christmas carols5. Christmas carols are songs that people sing at Christmas, such as "Jingle Bells", "We Wish You a Merry Christmas", "Silent Night"and so on. Some were very merry, others sounded quite holy, but all of them were beautiful. I closed my eyes, and let all the peacefulness and happiness that were in the songs flow through me. What a feeling it was!

We went to sleep earlier that day for we had to get up early on Christmas Day to open our presents. Sure enough, when I was still half-way during a sweet dream, Stephen burst into my room and told me to get up and open presents. There were a huge pile of presents under the Christmas tree, and there was such a mysterious mist shrouding them that made me eager to see what they all were. So one by one, we went through all the presents. Mr. and Mrs. Stapczynski had bought me everything I had written on my Christmas list--and a lot more! I got music CDs, film DVDs, clothes, books I was very happy, and I didnt know how to express my appreciation for what they had done for me.

Stephen and Niko had gotten a lot of presents too, and they had already been trying out their new games!

In the afternoon, we went to Mrs. Stapczynskis brother, Uncle Stans house. They had prepared a marvelous meal for us. A lot of their friends and relatives also came. I saw Stephen and Nikos grandparents, Yiayia and Papou (words of grandma and grandpa in Greek--Mrs. Stapczynskis parents came from Greece, so they like the boys using Greek words to call them). They were very kind to me, and treated me just like one of their family members. We had a very luxurious meal, consisting of turkey, beef, pork, and all sorts of other food.

After the meal, when all the stomachs were full and everyone was feeling drowsy6 from all the food, we just sat around the table and chatted, just like what we Chinese people do at the Spring Festival. After all, Christmas, like the Spring Festival, is a time for us to get away from our busy lives, a time for family gathering, and a time to have some fun.

篇17:学习今说题目高考

学习对人的一生是非常重要的,不仅如此,我们还要树立留心学习、终身学习的理念。连伟大领袖-都说:三天不学习,撵不上刘少奇!可见,时时学习、终身学习的重要性。我虽年龄不大,但谈到学习和学习方法,还是有几点体会的:

第一:我认为要好学。生活处处皆学问,孔子说过:“三人行,必有我师焉。”生活中、周围的人都有我们值得学习的东西。广告牌、电视上都是汉字学习的平台,可以边娱乐边学习,超市里、商场里都是数学练习的场所,可以边生活边学习。同学之间,朋友之间,学习他们的长处、弥补自己的短处,相互交流促进,就会使自己的学习再上一个新的台阶。总之,只要有一颗好学的心,就会发现生活中处处、时时都可以学到知识。

第二:要勤奋。我国古代就有许多勤奋学习的典范,匡衡凿壁偷光,孙敬、苏秦悬梁刺股,车胤、孙康囊萤映雪……他们在艰苦的环境下,都能够不放弃,坚持学习,而我们今天更应该以他们为榜样,珍惜时间,努力学习。“三更灯火五更鸡,正是男儿读书时。黑发不知勤学早,白首方悔读书迟。这首诗时时萦绕我耳边,激励我刻苦勤奋。

第三:要温故。我相信大家都有过这样的经历,学完的.东西很快就遗忘了。我也一样,以前我总觉得自己很笨,怎么明明记得很扎实,却会忘记?有一次,妈妈在考我单词时,无意中我说出了自己的想法。妈妈亲切的笑了,她告诉我说,世界上有个伟大的心理学家叫艾宾浩斯,你去问问他!我当时很是好奇,以为自己得了什么心理疾病?于是迫不及待的到网络上寻找他,急于得到答案。当我把艾宾浩斯这几个字输入电脑,浏览过后,我豁然开朗了。原来他是德国人,他发现了人的记忆力先快后慢的规律,只要遵循艾宾浩斯记忆法学习,就会比别人记得扎实。原来我不是笨蛋,遗忘是人人都会有的,学过的知识要想记得住,都是需要温习的。经常温习,并且“温故知新”,就可以做到像孔子说的一样,当老师了!

以上就是我通过自身学习,总结的一点经验,也是我对学习方法的浅薄看法,希望能给大家带来益处。

篇18:美国英语作文

全文共 3568 字

+ 加入清单

The Americans are much in love with food. This is part of being American too. Baseball is Americans national pastime1, but whats a ball game without hot dogs, peanuts2 and Cracker Jacks (sweetened popcorn3)? Hollywood is Americas symbol of glamour4 and excitement all over the world, but who would watch a movie in America without asking for an extra large bag of popcorn? And the astronauts took instant orange drink [Tang] with them.

Americans love all kinds of food, Italian, Chinese, Mexican, Greek, French, Japanese and many others. The Americans are in fact

“The UN of Food.”

To get familiar with the American eating custom, one must know two things. First, one must know the sequence5 of service. There is something special in terms of the sequence, or order, of dish service in America compared with ours. Here is the order:

1. Aperitif6—a small cup of alcoholic drink to increase ones appetite7. The host or hostess will ask: “Do you like a cup of aperitif?”

2. Hors doeuvre8—some tasty food offered in small quantities at the beginning of a meal.

3. Appetizer —or called starter, it is a small serving of juice, fruit or seafood or something else, at the beginning of a meal, to stimulate9 peoples appetite.

4. Now the main course is under way:

a) Soup—it is usually the first course in a dinner.

b) Fish—it is usually served after the soup and before the entree10 in a formal meal.

c) Entree—the third course of a meal, generally it is made up of a hot meat.

d) Savory11—the last course in a formal meal, it is something pleasant to eat but with a salty rather than sweet taste.

5. Dessert12 —sweet food served toward the end of a meal, usually it is a pudding, chocolate cake, or cheese and biscuits sometimes.

6. Coffee—thats the last stage in a formal present-day European and American dinner. Its served either at table or in the living room.

In a family treatment, the above-mentioned No 1-3 stage may be omitted13, though No 4 is the essential part. And the main course generally includes no more than 5 dishes of nutrient14 food. Ostentation15 is never under consideration.

Another thing to mention is that serving oneself from ones own plate is popular in Europe and America, except for the soup and bread which is taken and enjoyed according to ones need.

The second one we must know about the American eating custom is the taboos at table.

(1) Dont circle your plate with your arm. If you do so, you will become the focus16 of the table. Everyone would wonder: “Is there anything wrong with the food?” This may give a false message that you dont like the food or something like that.

(2) Dont push the plate back when finished. Leave it where it was. Do you mean to remind17 the hostess that youve just completed a labor?

(3)Dont lean18 back and announce that “Im through” or “Im stuffed19.” Just put the fork and knife quietly across the plate, thats all.

(4) Dont cut up everything before you start to eat. Cut only one or two bites20 at a time.

(5) Never take huge mouthfuls of anything. Do you mean to show how hungry you are? Dont do that! Be gentlemanlike or ladylike.

(6) Dont crook21 your finger when picking up a cup or glass. That looks too affected22, far from ladylike!

(7) Never wear too much lipstick23 to the table. It may stain the napkins24 and look gaudy25 and embarrassing on the rims26 of the cup or glass.

(8) Its never acceptable to reach across the table for anything (a serving dish, for example). If the item you want is not at hand, simply ask for the nearest person for help, like “Mrs. Smith, would you mind passing me the butter (or a dish)?”

It isn’t hard to grow up into a responsible member of society。

I can well remember an incident that happened on a rainy Sunday afternoon。 I was on my way to the bookstore and was waiting for the green light at a crossing when a girl of about ten was knocked down by a passing car, which drove off quickly。 A man immediately rushed to the girl to give her first aid and I joined in without hesitation。 Luckily she was not badly injured and we sent her to the nearest hospital。 Compared with the escaped driver, I am proud of what I did。

As a member of the society, I am aware that being responsible is what it takes to make a better society。
