英语高考作文常用高级句型归纳（精品20篇）

With the popularity of the Internet, onlineShoppingis commonly used throughout the world nowadays.

It offers a number of benefits to the shoppers. The most important advantage is its convenience. You can shop whenever you want to, as the online shops are open 24 hours every day, and you don’t have to queue with other shoppers. The large varieties of goods on the net are effortlessly comparable and easy to choose.

However, every coin has two sides, so does online shopping. The main disadvantage is that you can’t actually see the products you are buying or check the quality. Sometimes the incomplete payment system will result in revealing your personal information, which is not safe.

In my opinion, its advantages weigh more than its disadvantage, because the online shopping has been a fashionable trend in our modern life, it can not only save our time but also our money for our busy life.

材料内容：一只老鹰从峰顶俯冲下来，将一只小羊抓走了。一只乌鸦看见了，非常羡慕，心想：要是我也有这样的本领该多好啊！于是乌鸦模仿老鹰的俯冲姿势拼命练习。

一天，乌鸦觉得自己练得很棒了，便哇哇地从树上猛冲下来，抓住一只小羊的背上，想抓住小羊往上飞，可是它的身子太轻，爪子又被羊毛缠住，无论怎样拍打翅膀也飞不起来，结果被牧羊人抓住了。

牧羊人的孩子见了，问这是一只什么鸟，牧羊人说：“这是一只忘记自己叫什么的鸟。”孩子摸着乌鸦的羽毛说：“它也很可爱啊！”

与去年的命题作文不同，今年作文采用的是材料作文的形式。岑学贵认为，今年作文的难度在一定程度上有些提高，但这是符合发展的。首先，今年作文题体现了公平性原则，材料让所有学生都有话说；其次，体现了开放性原则，鼓励学生创新，考生可以根据自己特长，选择擅长的文体，可以是寓言，也可以是故事沙龙、议论文、记叙文，立意可以赞扬、可以否定、也可以一分为二；体现了选拔功能原则，因为话题可以自己选择，但是并不表示谁都可能写好，因为材料作文不同于话题作文，后者已经把立意表明得较清楚，而前者需要学生在全面了解材料的基础上自行立意，所以这会在一定程度上令一些考生无所适从。

郑应认为，今年采用材料作文倒是在意料之外，不过与传统的材料作文不同的是，今年把材料作文的特点和话题作文的特点相结合，摒弃了材料作文要求抓主旨、抓最佳选题的限制，加入话题作文的一个话题尽情展开的好处，让学生自由地写、自由发挥，同时又不过分散乱。取材作文的限制性加上话题作文的开放性，倒颇有一番“旧瓶装新酒”的意味。

Dragon Boat Festival is one the very classic traditional festivals, which

has been celebrated since the old China. Firstly, it is to in honor of the great

poet Qu Yuan, who jumped into the water and ended his life for loving the

country. Nowadays, different places have different ways to celebrate.

In my hometown, there will be a traditional competition, that is the dragon

boat race. People make up the team and fight for the honor. Every boat looks

like the dragon and it is the most obvious feature. A lot of people will come to

visit or watch the match. Then the game begins. The audience will cheer for the

teams and the competitors try their best to make the boat go fast. It is very

lively.

Besides the competition, eating the traditional food zongzi is favored by

everyone. For me, it is very delicious. My grandma makes the best zongzi. She

has the special recipe and it fits my stomach. So every time I go back hometown,

my grandma will make it for me.

In other places, drinking the special wine and hanging the leaf are also

the tradition. The preserve of the traditional festival makes our culture

profound.

In my life I have met many people who are really worth my recalling. But perhaps the most unforgettable person I ever knew is my Chinese language teacher.

What frequently brings back memories of my school teacher is his special qualities. First of all, I was attracted by his lively wit. I remember we always long for his class with great eagerness because his lecture were humorously delivered, never failing to provoke loud laughs. Second, he gave us the greatest gift a teacher can offer-- an awakening of a passion for learning. He not only led us to an appreciation of the beauty and perfection of Chinese and literature, but also aroused our great interest in exploring something deeper in this field. Finally, I was deeply impressed by the respect he showed for us, for he treated us like friends rather than students.

Although it is nearly 10 years since I attended his last class, he is the talk of our old classmates, and I know part of him has already stayed in my heart.

It has been a hot topic discussed heatedly for the time being that how indeed the media influence our teens. Different peopie come up with different opinions. The following passages are two different comments given by several teenagers ranging from 15 to 20.

One, Teens are the most influenced and the easiest to be influenced by the media. The media influence the way they dress, talk and conduct themselves. From the latest trends to the coolest celebrities, they imirate what they see, whether its Katie Holmess new haircut or the pink shirt that Christina Aguilera wore. So it follows that more serious actions like carrying arms or doing drugs could be copied as well.

Young people are impressionable. Therefore, some request that the media should take responsibility by changing some of the content of their shows especially those for teens. They are huge consumers of media, so networks should show them respect by promoting positive images. They think some shows confuse the lines between entertainment and life.The producers know their audiences are young, so they should realize that teens watching "reality" shows might not be ableto tell the difference between fantasy and fiction.

Opposing voices have also come from others. They think that they use the media--magazines, television and movies--to connect to one another and to the world, so naturally,theyre influenced by the images the media present. For example, a boy would be lying if he said he didnt want to be like Brad Pitt. Pitts flawless style, good looks and moneymaking talent seem to define whats "cool".

Nevertheless, those teens hold that the media only provide information, what they as viewers do with that knowledge is up to themselves. They have to learn to make their own choices and accept responsibility for their actions. To blame entertainment figures for certain crimes committed by teens isfunny. Its not the fault of TV. Media are an expression of our culture--not the cause. Its time we stop making the media a scapegoat for our nations problems. Its not the medias job to make sure kids understand what theyre watching; that responsibility belongs to parents. Parents and schools should dedicate more time to establishing clear rules of discipline.The influence of parents and teachers--the teens true role model--carries more weight with teenagers than what they hear on the radio or see at the movies.

①在此结构中，there是引导词，在句中不能充当任何成分，也不必翻译出来。句中的主语是某人或某物，谓语动词be要与主语的数保持一致。例如：There is a man at the door. 门口有一个人。

当主语是由两个或者两者以上的名词充当时，谓语动词be要跟它邻近的那个名词的数一致（就近一致）。例如：There are two dogs and a cat under the table.桌下有两只狗和一只猫。 比较： There is a cat and two dogs under the table.

②There be句型中的be不能用have来代替，但可以用lie(位于，躺)，stand(矗立)，exist(生存)，live(生活)等词来替换。例如：There stand a lot of tall buildings on both sides of the street. 街道两旁矗立着许多高楼。

There lies lake in front of our school. 我们学校前面有一个湖。

Once there lived a king here. 这儿曾经有一个国王。

There is going to be a sports meeting next week. 下周准备开一个运动会。

与there be 类似的结构： there seem(s)/happen(s) to be…

There seems to be one mistake in spelling. 似乎有一处拼写错误。

There happened to be a ruler here. 这儿碰巧有把尺子。

There seemed to be a lot of people there. 那儿似乎有很多人。

Good afternoon， everyone。

The topic of my speech today is “Being a Good Listener”。

Good listening can always show respect， promote understanding， and improve interpersonal relationship。

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。

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。

Thank you for your listening!

导语：网络是把双刃剑，我们不能一概的批评，很多东西都是有利有弊的，下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的相关优秀英语作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

We should say that every coin has its two sides. So it is with surfing on line.

Generally speaking, students will benefit a lot from Internet. People can get lots of useful information through the Internet quickly ,no matter it is national or throughout the world. We can also listen to the music and chat with the friends far away.The most important of all is that we can search many foreigners who speak English as their native languge, which can help us improve our Enlish rapidly.We can send Email to our good friends in a few seconds---with the internet your friend dont need to wait for so long time as receiving a letter as before.

But it also can spread many side effects.for example ,there are some sexy news and pictures on web which will not do good to teenagers. And there are some games that can easily attract the students and even make you addict to the games so you can waste a lot of valuable time.

On the whole it will give you both good and bad things, the thing matters much is how do you make use of it.

【参考翻译】

我们都说任何事物都有其两面性，所有上网也不例外。

总的来说，学生通过互联网还是受益颇多的，我们可以很快从网上取得很多有益的信息，不管是国家的还是世界的。还可以在网上听音乐和远方的朋友聊天，最重要的是可以接触到很多讲英语的外国朋友和他们当地的方言，以帮助我们快速提高英语水平。通过互联网我们远方的朋友不再像以前一样需要花很长一段时间才能收到信件，只需几分钟就可以给我们的好朋友发送邮件。

但同时也带来很多不同的影响，比如，很多不利于青少年的色情新闻或者图片在网上出现，同时还有很多易于吸引学生的游戏甚至长时间沉溺于游戏。

总的来看很多东西都有利有弊，就看你如何去利用它。

范文 (One possible version)

This form displays the result of a survey on how to spend students’ weekend. It says that few students are glued to their schoolwork any more. Instead， they prefer to surf on the internet， watch TV， go shopping rather than involve in sports games. Library and interest groups are available but not favourable.

Personally I think， students are now freed from heavy burden but their spare time is not well arranged. They are expected to spend some time on what they learn instead of hanging out. More time should be spent not only on green field but also in the libraries to build up themselves physically and mentally. Besides， more interest groups should be established for students to widen their horizon and sharpen their brains so that they can become more creative eventually. All these will contributes a lot to a well-informed and highly qualified teenager.

In conclusion， students should be more scheduled with colorful and fruitful activities.
