假设你是李华，你的英国网友Peter希望了解一下我国高考英语试卷（NMET）中的“短

文改错”（Error Correction）题型的情况。请你写一封回复邮件。并特别强调自己某一次因为没有严格按照要求答题被扣掉了本可得到的7分。

注意：1．词数100左右

2．内容请参照本卷该大题内容。

3．生词：（打）勾：tick 分：point 逻辑（的）：logic

Hi, Peter:

Thanks for your e-mail. Here I’m going to tell you what you asked about.

Error Correction, as the 1st section of Written Part of NMET, mainly tests the mastery of the use of words and grammar of English. The understanding of the given text is course important to the performance.

There are 10 numbered lines, each of which may have one mistake. You have to decide firstly whether there is a mistake or not. If not, put a tick in the numbered blank. If there is a mistake, you may have to add a word, cross out a word, or change word. You have to find out the mistakes in the use of words and/or grammar. Sometimes there may be a logic problem, which would be the most difficult.

Last time I got 7 points less than expected. Why? I didn’t put the answers strictly following the rule, although I did know how to do it.

Anything still unclear? Just write to me.

嗨，彼得：

谢谢你的邮件。在这里我要告诉你，你问。

误差校正，作为高考英语笔试部分第一部分，主要测试词汇和语法的掌握英语的使用。对文本的理解是很重要的。

一共有10株，其中可能有一个错误。首先你要确定是否有错误。如果没有，空格的空白。如果有一个错误，你可以添加一个词，划掉一个字，或改变的话。你要找到的词语或语法错误使用。有时可能会有一个逻辑问题，这将是最困难的。

上次我得了7分，比预期的少。为什么？我没有把答案的严格规则，虽然我不知道如何去做。

还不清楚什么呢？就给我写信。

生活中的一件件小事，如同大海中的一滴滴水，许许多多的事汇成了我生活的海洋。有一件事，它如同海中的宝藏，一直藏在我的记忆深处。当我脆弱的时候，用心灵轻轻抚摩它，默默地感受着它给我的力量。

四年级夏季的一天，大哥哥大姐姐骑着自行车飞来飞去，心里的敬佩之情油然而生。我央求妈妈教我骑自行车，妈妈说：“学骑自行车看起来简单，实际上非常复杂，需要一个人的耐力呀!”我自信的说：“没关系!”

妈妈讲骑车的要领，我认真地听着。可脚踏上车的一刹那，心里产生了一种恐惧：只有两个轮子，怎么保持平衡?要是摔个“人仰车翻”该多疼啊!不管了，豁出去了!可是刚蹬了几下，感觉到妈妈悄悄地松开手，心一惊，一下子摔倒了。虽然很疼，但我仍要尝试。第二次，同样的失败。

“不学了!不学了!我不学了!”两次的失败，完全没有了先前的勇气和信心，转而气愤了。妈妈语重心长地说：“我给你讲一个故事吧：

美国着名的作家海伦·凯勒，在十九个月的时候，因一场高烧，她的视觉、听觉完全消失，因而，她也无法说话。她并没有因此而伤心，跟她的莎利文老师学习。一生创作了许多作品，成为了十九世纪至而是世纪的世界奇迹……”

泪水情不自禁地夺眶而出。我真的很佩服她的意志，一股暖流涌遍全身，我羞愧于具有健全的体魄却无坚韧的意志。像她那种残疾人倘可以创造出一个世纪的奇迹，那么，我们面前还有什么事可以称之为困难呢?

妈妈含笑注视我，轻轻抚摩我的头，意味深长地说：“孩子，世界上最可怕的不是困难本身，而是畏惧困难的心灵。”数语，胜似千言。

十几天的艰辛努力，终于，我可以自由驰骋。可海伦·凯勒的故事也在我心中荡起一个个美丽的涟漪。

感谢你，你的智慧与精神不仅为人生画板描绘出亮丽的色彩，而且也让生命的色彩成为一尊炫目的灯塔，引导我们前行，我的生命也因你而再度升华!

Immoral Behavior in Public

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the topic of Immoral Behavior in Public. You should write at least 150 words following the outline given below:

1.我们经常在公共场合见到各种不道德的行为，叙述你的一次相关经历。

2.这些不文明行为会有哪些影响。

3.我们应该怎样改善这种现象。

【范文】

To witness immoral behavior in public, one need only visit the Beijing subway. I still remember the first time I took the Beijing subway. It was an early morning. I was in a hurry to go to school. When I was trying to get a ticket, I found a lot of people waiting in front of me, but nobody was in the line.

只要访问北京的地铁，就可以目睹公众场所的不道德行为。我还记得我第一次在北京做地铁。那是一个清晨。我急于去学校。当我努力买票的时候，我发现很多人在前面等着，但是没有一个人在排队。

Immoral behaviors in public initiate a series of problems. One of the most serious ones is that it may exert a negative impact on our sense of social responsibility. We will keep ignoring other people’s rights and feelings, and in turn, we too will be disrespected some day.

公众场所的不道德行为引发了一系列问题。其中最严重的是，它可能会对我们的社会责任感产生负面影响。我们将继续忽视其他人的权利和感情，反过来，我们也有一天会不被尊重的。

The reform of this phenomenon is certainly not easy. With an eye on practical implementation and cost effectiveness , I propose that society make it clear in every way that people who fail to respect the common good will be seriously punished. Stricter policies for this should be made to correct this phenomenon as soon as possible.

改变这一现象肯定是不容易的。从实际的执行和成本效益上看，我认为社会应该在各方面明确指出谁不尊重共同利益将受到严厉的惩罚。应该尽快制定这严厉的政策来纠正这一现象。

We all expect “A World without Thieves". Everyone shares the huge responsibility of demonstrating his or her justice at the proper time. Personal responsibility is vital to build a harmonious socialist society.

我们都希望“天下无贼”。所有人都该承担巨大的社会责任在适当的时候展示他或她的正义感。个人的责任是构建社会主义和谐社会的关键。

假如你上周末参加了某旅行社组织的所谓生态游，你觉得名不副实。请你根据下表内容把自己经历的这次生态游和对真正生态游的看法写出来。

所谓的生态游：

欣赏风景，享受新鲜空气

有人摘花、捉鸟、乱扔垃圾

真正的生态游

享受自然，同时也是一种责任

要保护自然，保护野生动物

带走美好回忆，留下青山绿水

Last weekend I went on an eco-travel with a travel agency. All the way we enjoyed the beautiful scenery and fresh air. But a few of us picked flowers as while going sightseeing. Some even tried to catch the birds they saw. What was worse, many tourists threw rubbish here and there. The rubbish may do harm to wildlife there.

I don’t think this is a true eco-travel. A true eco-travel is a tour that not only allows us to express our love for nature, but needs our responsibility as well. As we enjoy the beauty of nature, we should try our best to protect it. And we should also try to protect wildlife. A true eco-travel should be like this: take nothing away but your good memory; leave nothing behind but all the green trees and the clean water.

vandalism 对公共财物的有意破坏

Dear Editor,

Recently graffiti has become more noticeable in my college. I feel quite annoyed at them, especially when some of my classmates praise them as a kind of so-called art. Confronted with this impolite phenomenon, I can’t help asking myself: what is wrong with today’s teenagers?

In my opinion, graffiti is a form of vandalism. They are a mess and are ugly to look at. Meanwhile, walls are public places, and they should not be used to express personal views and feelings.

I really think vandalism should be stopped, and those who refuse to stop this bad practice should be punished. We should clear away these ugly expressions and drawings so that our college may return to its true self--a clean, quiet place for study, teaching and research.

Yours,

Li Ming

每年的阴历正月十五是中国人很重视的传统节日，元宵节。元宵节也叫“上元节”,春灯节，是很多家庭团圆的节日。正月十五日是一年中第一个月圆之夜，加上吃元宵的习俗，这个节日就和团圆两个字牢牢的联系起来。元宵节是春节之后的第一个重要节日，不管是南方北方都对这个节日比较重视，举行很多的活动来庆祝这个节日。大家一定很好奇元宵节的来历和习俗，现在中国吃网小编就告诉你元宵节是怎么来的，都有哪些习俗。

有关元宵节来历的说法多种多样，有3种说法流传较广。

元宵节来历传说一

宵节是汉文帝时为纪念“平吕”而设。相传吕后一系在吕后死后害怕大全旁落，密谋叛乱，宗室齐王刘囊联合开国老臣周勃一起平定了“诸吕之乱”。平乱之后，众臣拥立刘邦的第二个儿子刘恒登基，称汉文帝。文帝深感太平盛世来之不易，便把平息“诸吕之乱”的正月十五，定为与民同乐日，京城里家家张灯结彩，以示庆祝。从此，正月十五便成了一个普天同庆的民间节日--“闹元宵”。

元宵节来历传说二

元宵节又称“上元节”,是人们庆祝一年中第一次的月圆之夜。据道教的“三元说”,正月十五日为上元节，七月十五日为中元节，十月十五日为下元节。主管上、中、下三元的分别为天、地、人三官，天官喜乐，故上元节要燃灯。元宵燃灯放烟火的习俗就是从这个说法来的。

元宵节来历传说三

元宵节起源于“火把节”,汉代民众在乡间田野持火把驱赶虫兽，希望减轻虫害，祈祷获得好收成。直到今天，中国西南一些地区的人们还在正月十五用芦柴或树枝做成火把，成群结队高举火把在田头或晒谷场跳舞。隋、唐、宋以来，更是盛极一时。参加歌舞者足达数万，从昏达旦，至晦而罢。当随着社会和时代的变迁，元宵节的风俗习惯早已有了较大的变化，但至今仍是中国民间传统节日，火把也逐渐变为了彩灯。

自唐朝中期以来，元宵节发展成为了我国全民性的狂欢节，因此元宵节是把传统节日习俗体现得最为彻底和典型的传统节日。

大部分地方元宵节习俗有吃元宵、观花灯、猜灯谜，还有擂鼓、舞龙、舞狮等活动，但南北各地风俗也有独特之处。

在距非洲撒哈拉沙漠不远处的利比亚东部，有一个叫杜兹的偏远农村，这里白天的平均气温高达42摄氏度，一年中除了秋季会有短暂的雨水外，其他绝大部分时间都是骄阳似火。

然而，就在这样一个恶劣的环境中，却生长着一种世界上最奇异的鱼，它能在长时间缺水、缺食物的情况下，忍着不死，并且通过长时间的休眠和不懈的自我解救，最终等来雨季，赢得新生，它便是非洲的杜兹肺鱼。

每年当干旱季节来临时，杜兹河流的水都会枯竭，当地的农民便再也无法从河流里取到现成的饮用水了。为了省事，当他们在劳作时口渴了，便会深挖出河床里的淤泥，找出几条深藏在其中的肺鱼，肺鱼体内的肺囊里储存了不少干净的水。

农民们将挖出来的肺鱼对准自己的嘴巴，然后用力猛地挤上一顿，肺鱼体内的水便会全部流了出来，帮他们方便地解渴。

然后，农民便会将其随意地一扔，不再顾及它们的死活。

有一条叫“黑玛”的杜兹肺鱼就不幸遇见了这样的事情：当一个农民挤干了它的水分后，便将它抛弃在河岸上。无遮无挡的黑玛被太阳晒得直冒油，生命垂危。好在它拼命地蹦呀、跳呀，最后终于跳回到了之前的淤泥中，重新捡回了一条命。

但是，不幸远没有就此打住。很快，又有一个农民要搭建一座泥房子，于是他开始到河床里取出一大堆的淤泥，好用它们做成泥坯子。不巧，黑玛正好就在这堆淤泥中。于是，它又被这个农民毫不知情地打进泥坯里。泥坯晒干后，那个农民便用它们垒墙，黑玛很自然地便成了墙的一部分，完全被埋进墙壁里，没有人知道墙里还有一条鱼。

此时墙中的黑玛已完全脱离了水，而且没有任何食物，它必须依靠囊中仅有的一些水，迅速进入彻底的休眠状态之中。

在黑暗中整整等待了半年后，黑玛终于等来了久违的短暂雨季，雨水将包裹黑玛的泥坯轻轻打湿，一些水汽便开始朝泥坯内部渗入。

湿气很快将黑玛从深度休眠中唤醒了过来，体衰力竭且体内水分已基本耗尽的黑玛，开始拼命地整天整夜地吸呀吸，好将刚进入泥坯里的水汽和养分一点点地全部吸入肺囊中——这是黑玛唯一的自救办法。

当再无水汽和养分可吸之时，黑玛又开始新一轮的休眠。

很快，新房盖好后的第一年过去了，包裹着黑玛的泥坯依旧坚如磐石，黑玛如同一块“活化石”被镶嵌在其中，一动也不能动。黑玛深知此时再多的挣扎都是徒劳，唯有静静等待。

第二年，在自然的变化以及地球重力的作用下，泥坯彼此之间已不如之前密合得那么好，它们开始有了些松动。黑玛觉得机会来了，它不再休眠了，而是开始日夜不停地用全身去磨蹭泥坯，生硬的泥坯刺得黑玛生疼，但它始终没有放弃，在它的坚持下，一些泥坯开始变成粉末状，纷纷下落。

在黑玛昼夜不断的磨蹭之下，第三年它周围的空间大了许多，甚至可以让它打个滚，翻个身了。但是，此时的黑玛还是无法脱身，泥坯外还有最后一层牢固的阻挡。

改变命运的转机发生在第四年，一场难得一见的狂风夹带着米粒般大小的暴雨，终于在某个夜里呼啸而至，更可喜的是，由于房子的主人已在一年多前弃家而走了，这座房子已年久失修，在暴雨和狂风的作用下，泥坯开始纷纷松动、滑落，直至最后完全垮塌。此时，黑玛用尽全身最后的一点力气，与暴风雨内应外合，一较劲，破土而出了!

沿着满路面下泻的流水，重见天日的黑玛很快便游到不远处的一条河流中，那里有它期待了4年的一切食物和营养——肺鱼黑玛终于战胜了死亡，赢得重生!这是杜兹，也是整个撒哈拉沙漠里的生命奇迹。

而这个奇迹的名字便叫：坚持和忍耐!

Hello, everyone,

Now I’ll tell you something about our research project The World Food Crisis on behalf of our group. As you know, food shortages have hit many countries in the world and even caused social unrest in some areas. But who is responsible for the current world food crisis? First, annual world grains output has declined because of climate change. Then lots of farmland has been lost due to the rapid development of industry and urbanization. Besides, faced with the rising energy prices, people have turned to the production of biofuels, which has worsened the severe situation.

Then what should we do to deal with the problem? On one hand, we should focus on the environmental protection and improve the ecology. On the other hand, strict measures should be taken to protect farmland. Of course, to build a harmonious world the developed countries should take their responsibilities to help the poor ones experiencing food shortage.

As for me, I will call on the people around me to live thriftily. And for the moment, I think, we should study hard to develop science and help solve the food shortage in the future.

Many people suggest that parents should listen more to their children, so they will understand them better, and find it easy to narrow the generation gap; teachers should listen more to their students, then they can meet their needs better, and place themselves in a good relationship with their students; students should listen more to their classmates, thus they will help and learn from each other, and a friendship is likely to be formed.

许多人认为父母应该多听他们的孩子，这样他们就会更好地理解他们，并发现很容易缩小代沟；教师应该多听他们的学生，然后他们可以满足他们的需要更好，并把自己在一个良好的关系，学生，学生应该多听他们的同学，从而他们将帮助和相互学习，和友谊可能会形成。

What I want to stress is that each of us should listen to others. Show your respect and never stop others till they finish their talk; show you are interested by a supportive silence or a knowing smile; be open-minded to different opinions even though you don’t like them. In a word, good listening can really enable us to get closer to each other.

我想强调的是，我们每个人都应该听从别人的要求。表现出你的尊重，从不停止别人的谈话，表明你对一个支持性的沉默或是一个微笑的微笑很感兴趣；对不同意见的人持开放态度，即使你不喜欢他们。用一个词，好的听力可以使我们彼此接近。

Thank you for your listening!

You cannot judge a tree by its bark.

人不可貌相。

Everyone knows thatFailurealways accompanies us in our life. No matter what we do, none of us can say we will surely succeed, because there is no such thing as plain sailing.

大家都知道,失败总是伴随着我们的生活。无论我们做什么,没有人能说我们肯定会成功,因为没有所谓的一帆风顺。

About failure, different people have different opinions. Generally speaking, on one hand, people think "failure is the mother of success". They think we wont understand the profound meaning of success until we go through failure. On the other hand, for some people, failure is frustration. They think if a person goes through too much failure, he will collapse and lose confidence in his life.

对失败,不同的人有不同的观点。一般来说,一方面,人们认为“失败是成功之母”。他们认为我们不会理解的深刻含义成功直到我们经历失败。另一方面,对于一些人来说,失败是失望。他们认为如果一个人经历太多的失败,他将会崩溃,在他的生活中失去信心。

In my opinion, failure is the footstone and catalyst of the edifice of success. "You dont know what you have until its gone." If you have never lost it, and always get it easily, you will not cherish what you get and own.

在我看来,失败是成功的基石和催化剂的大厦。“你不知道你所拥有的,直到它消失了。“如果你没有失去它,总是很容易,你不会珍惜你所得到的,自己的。

时光飞逝，弹指一挥间，我们已走到了高考前的100天。大家还记得刚开始步入高中时的军训吗，那情景好像就发生在昨日;而如今，我们确确实实已站在了离高考仅有一百天的门槛上。

蓦然回首，高中生活真是有苦有乐。我们曾用智慧培育理想，我们曾用汗水浇灌希望。说实话，我很荣幸今天能站在这儿，因为我的成绩不是秀的，我也还在为自己的弱势科目不断努力。还记得第一次理综考试，说出来不怕大家笑话，300分的总分我仅得了86分。这个分数让我沮丧到想哭。但哭又有什么用呢?高考不相信眼泪。于是，我下了干到底的决心——理综，谁怕谁啊!我在自己的桌子上刻下了一句话——人生要尽全力渡过每一关，不管遇到多大的困难也不轻言放弃。于是，我不再回避那简单得不好意思的问题，因为我知道它对我很重要，问老师，问同学，一次不懂再问一次，脚踏实地。现在我的理综已经上升到了180分左右。同时，我真的懂得了行动是治愈恐惧的良药。我相信勤能补拙。

但我没有骄傲的资本，正所谓行百里者半九十，到了这个节骨眼上，我们更要坚定意志，破釜沉舟，背水一战。也许走向高考的最后一百天中，跑道不会是铺满了玫瑰的花径，而是充满了艰难险阻的沙石之道。我们必须要忍受脚板的疼痛，外界的纷扰，还有心中那隐隐约约的放弃的念头。我们要拿出“被打碎了牙齿也要和着血一齐吞下”的勇气，拿出我们青少年应有的朝气和自信。对自己说：加油，加油!加油!因为我们坚信：我们__有最敬业的老师，我们__有我们这群刻苦努力的学生。我们曾为了多做几道题，而在热闹的寒假足不出户;我们曾为了默对一句诗，而将默写内容过上六七遍;为了高考，我们已经足足准备了十二年，我们没有失败的理由!

蝶的飞舞，是因为它突破了茧层;花的芬芳，是因为它战胜了苞叶。任何一种美丽都不是没有原因的，任何一次成功都需要我们为之努力奋斗。

一、 主题句原则

国有其君，家有其主，文章也要有其主。否则会给人造成“群龙无首”之感!相信各位读过一些破烂文学，故意把主体隐藏在文章之内，结果造成我们稀里糊涂!不知所云!所以奉劝各位一定要写一个主题句，放在文章的开头(保险型)或者结尾，让读者一目了然，必会平安无事!

特别提示：隐藏主体句可是要冒险的!

To begin with, you must work hard at your lessons and be fully prepared before the exam(主题句).

Without sufficient preparation, you can hardly expect to answer all the questions correctly.

二、 长短句原则

工作还得一张一驰呢，老让读者读长句，累死人!写一个短小精辟的句子，相反，却可以起到画龙点睛的作用。而且如果我们把短句放在段首或者段末，也可以揭示主题：

As a creature, I eat; as a man, I read. Although one action is to meet the primary need of my body and the other is to satisfy the intellectual need of mind, they are in a way quite similar.

如此可见，长短句结合，抑扬顿挫，岂不爽哉?牢记!

强烈建议：在文章第一段(开头)用一长一短，且先长后短;在文章主体部分，要先用一个短句解释主要意思，然后在阐述几个要点的时候采用先短后长的句群形式，定会让主体部分妙笔生辉!文章结尾一般用一长一短就可以了。

三、 一二三原则

领导讲话总是第一部分、第一点、第二点、第三点、第二部分、第一点…如此罗嗦。可毕竟还是条理清楚。考官们看文章也必然要通过这些关键性的“标签”来判定你的文章是否结构清楚，条理自然。破解方法很简单，只要把下面任何一组的词汇加入到你的几个要点前就清楚了。

1)first, second, third, last(不推荐，原因：俗)

2)firstly, secondly, thirdly, finally(不推荐，原因：俗)

3)the first, the second, the third, the last(不推荐，原因：俗)

4)in the first place, in the second place, in the third place, lastly(不推荐，原因：俗)

5)to begin with, then, furthermore, finally(强烈推荐)

6)to start with, next, in addition, finally(强烈推荐)

7)first and foremost, besides, last but not least(强烈推荐)

8)most important of all, moreover, finally

9)on the one hand, on the other hand(适用于两点的情况)

10)for one thing, for another thing(适用于两点的情况)

建议：不仅仅在写作中注意，平时说话的时候也应该条理清楚!

四、 短语优先原则

写作时，尤其是在考试时，如果使用短语，有两个好处：其一、用短语会使文章增加亮点，如果老师们看到你的文章太简单，看不到一个自己不认识的短语，必然会看你低一等。相反，如果发现亮点—精彩的短语，那么你的文章定会得高分了。其二、关键时刻思维短路，只有凑字数，怎么办?用短语是一个办法!比如：

I cannot bear it.

可以用短语表达：I cannot put up with it.

I want it.

可以用短语表达：I am looking forward to it.

这样字数明显增加，表达也更准确。

五、 多实少虚原则

原因很简单，写文章还是应该写一些实际的东西，不要空话连篇。这就要求一定要多用实词，少用虚词。我这里所说的虚词就是指那些比较大的词。比如我们说一个很好的时候，不应该之说nice这样空洞的词，应该使用一些诸如generous, humorous, interesting, smart, gentle, warm-hearted, hospital 之类的形象词。再比如：

走出房间，general的词是：walk out of the room

但是小偷走出房间应该说：slip out of the room

小姐走出房间应该说：sail out of the room

小孩走出房间应该说：dance out of the room

老人走出房间应该说：stagger out of the room

所以多用实词，少用虚词，文章将会大放异彩!

六、 多变句式原则

1)加法(串联)

都希望写下很长的句子，像个老外似的，可就是怕写错，怎么办，最保险的写长句的方法就是这些，可以在任何句子之间加and, 但最好是前后的句子又先后关系或者并列关系。

比如说： I enjor music and he is fond of playing guitar. 如果是二者并列的，我们可以用一个超级句式：Not only the fur coat is soft, but it is also warm. 其它的短语可以用：besides, furthermore, likewise, moreover

2)转折(拐弯抹角)

批评某人缺点的时候，我们总习惯先拐弯抹角说说他的优点，然后转入正题，再说缺点，这种方式虽然阴险了点，可毕竟还比较容易让人接受。所以呢，我们说话的时候，只要在要点之前先来点废话，注意二者之间用个专这次就够了。

The car was quite old, yet it was in excellent condition.

The coat was thin, but it was warm.

更多的短语：despite that, still, however, nevertheless, in spite of, despite, not with standing

3)因果(so, so, so)

昨天在街上我看到了一个女孩，然后我主动搭讪，然后我们去咖啡厅，然后我们认识了，然后我们成为了朋友…可见，讲故事的时候我们总要追求先后顺序，先什么，后什么，所以然后这个词就变得很常见了。其实这个词表示的是先后或因果关系!

The snow began to fall, so we went home.

更多短语：then, therefore, consequently, accordingly, hence, as a result, for this reason, so that

4)失衡句(头重脚轻，或者头轻脚重)

有些人脑袋大，身体小，或者有些人脑袋小，身体大，虽然我们不希望长成这个样子，可如果真的是这样了，也就必然会吸引别人的注意力。文章中如果出现这样的句子，就更会让考官看到你的句子与众不同。其实就是主语从句，表语从句，宾语从句的变形。

举例：This is what I can do.

Whether he can go with us or not is not sure.

同样主语、宾语、表语可以改成如下的复杂成分：

When to go, Why he goes away…

5)附加(多此一举)

如果有了老婆，总会遇到这样的情况，当你再讲某个人的时候，她会插一句说，我昨天见过他;或者说，就是某某某，如果把老婆的话插入到我们的话里面，那就是定语从句和同位语从句或者是插入语。

The man whom you met yesterday is a friend of mine.

I don’t enjoy that book you are reading.

Mr liu, our oral English teacher, is easy-going.

其实很简单，同位语--要解释的东西删除后不影响整个句子的构成;定语从句—借用之前的关键词并且用其重新组成一个句子插入其中，但是whom or that 关键词必须要紧跟在先行词之前。

6)排比(排山倒海句)

文学作品中最吸引人的地方莫过于此，如果非要让你的文章更加精彩的话，那么我希望你引用一个个的排比句，一个个得对偶句，一个个的不定式，一个个地词，一个个的短语，如此表达将会使文章有排山倒海之势!

Whether your tastes are modern or traditional, sophisticated or simple, there is plenty in London for you.

Nowadays, energy can be obtained through various sources such as oil, coal, natural gas, solar heat, the wind and ocean tides.

We have got to study hard, to enlarge our scope of knowledge, to realize our potentials and to pay for our life. (气势恢宏)

要想写出如此气势恢宏的句子非用排比不可!

七、 挑战极限原则

既然是挑战极限，必然是比较难的，但是并非不可攀!

原理：在学生的文章中，很少发现诸如独立主格的句子，其实也很简单，只要花上5分钟的时间看看就可以领会，它就是分词的一种特殊形式，分词要求主语一致，而独立主格则不然。比如：

The weather being fine, a large number of people went to climb the Western Hills.

Africa is the second largest continent, its size being about three times that of China.

如果您可一些出这样的句子，不得高分才怪!

李华

贝多芬

⑴数不清的不眠之夜是数不清的寂寞之苦。原本五彩的世界瞬间悄然无声，那跳动的音符似乎在瞬间变得沉寂。他，一个把音乐看作生命胜似生命的人，如何去面对失聪之苦？然而，他做到了，虽是无声，却仿佛拉近了与心的距离，让人们感到的是执著于音乐的心在呼吸。就是这样，勇于经历磨炼，煅造出了一位乐坛骄子——贝多芬

⑵要向挫折轻易言败。这是快乐人生克服痛苦的第一步。著名作曲家贝多芬

白居易

⑴弹琴的人在水上，听琴的人在马上，弹琴的人和听琴的人相遇在一条船上。这条船便是一张琴了，被水的手指拨响。所谓知音，便是一个人与另一个人的心事被琴说穿，被水流传。人人都在世上寻找知音，却不知道在何时会偶然出现机缘。今夜，谁在那一勾残月下，独自临风抚琴？大音如霜降于四野，飘向远处的琴声比远处更远。寒夜秋月，千古心情，在玉指和轻弦上泛漫。庐山多愁善感的情怀，在一个古代的夜晚，被诗与琵琶说尽。

⑵浔阳江水在琵琶上翻滚流淌，白司马搁下酒杯，用悲怆在琴弦上定音。一曲终了，弹琵琶的手指在弦上轻轻滑落。于是，载满秋怨的小舟随琴声的消逝而永远消逝。而诗人则踏着湿漉漉的诗行，忧郁地走进经典。两行长长的泪水，垂在历史的脸庞，再也无法抹去。

李清照：婉约柔情最佳人

1、你的身影，在伤感中飘过，“帘卷西风，人比黄花瘦”;你凝眸，凝眸处，从今又添，一段新愁。战乱与离散没有抑制你的情感，反而抒出了丽处直参片玉之班、直欲压倒须眉的柔情。

2、你只是一个普通的活泼少女，你只是一个普通的寂寞思妇，你也只是一个普通的时代见证者。但弱水之于中，只有你在藕花深处笑唱出的“争渡，争渡，惊起一滩鸥鹭”，只有你在重阳吟出“人比黄花瘦”，也只有你唱出的“生当作人杰，死亦为鬼雄”,在那个封建的社会，深刻在人们的心头，在千年岁月的长河里，发出永恒的光辉。

蒲松龄：看尽人间冷暖探尽官场黑暗

简陋聊斋中，看尽人间冷暖，探尽官场黑暗。在幽冥世界中与花妖狐魅交谈，在文房四室里将魑魅魍魉展现。人鬼相杂，幽明相间中，你发现鬼怪的可爱，你惊异封建社会的黑暗.你挥笔间，握起了一把利剑，劈开封建思想的虚伪。

Life is not always full of smiles and flowers. Every person has his own difficulties no matter how high his position or how great his achievement is. So it is of vital importance to have a correct attitude to face up to difficulties.

生活并不总是充满鲜花和微笑。每个人都有自己的困难，不管他的地位或是多大的成就有多高。所以要有一个正确的态度面对困难是至关重要的。

Some people feel so dejected about their difficulties that they fall into pessimism; others resort to putting the blame on others, the society or circumstance; still others are frightened by difficulties and give up halfway. All these people don’t use their abilities to overcome difficulties. So their attitudes are negative.

有些人对他们的困难感到沮丧，他们陷入悲观;别人采取把责任归咎于他人，社会或环境;还有些人害怕困难，半途而废。所有这些人都没有使用自己的能力去克服困难。所以他们的态度是消极的。

The positive method is to utilize your ability to clear away your difficulties that appear in your way of life rather than run away from them. Confront difficulties with joyful energy and enthusiasm , and you will find the difficulties are really not so hard as they appear and they will disappear in due course.

积极的方法是利用你的能力去清除你的困难，你的生活方式的出现，而不是逃避。面对困难与欢乐的精力和热情，你会发现其实并不困难，因为他们出现，他们将在适当的时候消失这么难。

【猜题理由】2010年高考写作题应该是学生较为熟悉的、身边的与他们生活、学习密切相关的话题。因为高考有一定的连续性，2010年有些省份仍可能采用应用文进行考查。

【构思点拨】本题属于提纲式要点作文，要求学生就所给内容写一张留言条，是学生比较熟悉的题材，体现了英语学习应该注意实用性，生活化的原则。应注意下面几点： (1)注意人称，应该用第一人称的形式给同学李明(第二人称)写便条：(2)注意时态的正确使用：从试题的内容上可以看出在表达要点上应用将来时;(3)注意恰当使用逻辑词语，是各个要点间逻辑连贯，行文通顺。提纲类书面表达不是简单的逐条翻译，而是将所给的几个要点合理的组成比较通顺的语句，因此要仔细组织语言，合理安排结构。在语言方面，要特别注意简洁明了，开门见山。
