应用文

Dear Smith,

I’m Li Hua, one of your students. In order to adjust to the mixed accents of British and American English in listening practice, I’m wondering if you could accept the following suggestions I would like to offer on our oral English lessons.

First of all, we would greatly appreciate it if you could provide some pronunciation rules which can help us sharpen our listening skills. Additionally, it would help to introduce us to some useful materials, such as English songs, fun dubbing, or film clips where we can be exposed to various accents. I am firmly convinced that we will make great progress with your aid.

Thank you for your attention to this letter! Looking forward to your support and guidance!

Yours sincerely,

Li Hua

读后续写【参考范文】

By the end of the presentation, almost everyone was in tears. We gave her a big applause. Several classmates put up their hands to comment on how brave she was to stand up in front of thirty people and talk about something so personal, and how strong she was to have overcome the disorder. The most shocking thing about the whole presentation was how surprising it was. We never thought that she would have had a problem like that. She always seemed so happy and confident. We were really inspired by her courage.

When she returned to her seat, I could tell she was really relieved and happy. “Well done! You are my hero!” I gave her a thumbs-up signal and praised her. “Thanks! Things are always changing for the better so long as we believe in ourselves and take some action.” she replied with a broad smile on her face. I couldn’t agree with her more. Her story also reminds me how difficult it is to judge people. You never know just by looking, or even from observing them, what type of person someone is.

31. C 推理判断题。由最后一段鱼能把这些知识应用到新的任务中吗?他们真的掌握了颜色背后的数学法则吗? Schluessel解释说:“为了验证这一点，我们将在未来的训练中故意省略一些计算。”可知，还需要更多的试验来证实新发现。

32. A 细节理解题。根据第二段：我们发现女性和超重的人在喝了人工甜味剂后，大脑的奖励活动更大。两组人在喝了含有三氯蔗糖的饮料后，都比喝了普通的含糖饮料后吃了更多的食物。可知，女性相比于男性来说，在喝了低热量的饮料后更容易吃得更多。

38. F  根据空后一句讲述了实验的最终结果即休息的参与者记住了近50%，而另一组平均记住了28%，可知空白处应该是讲述实验的过程，一小时后进行测试时，两组人的回忆模式明显不同。

39. G  根据本段第二句在健康的参与者中，他们发现短暂的休息也可以提高我们对地点的记忆，可知空白处讲述了短暂的休息对于其他人的好处即老年痴呆症的早期和中期患者也有类似的益处。 G项中also，benefit是提示。

40. B  A项中this指代上一句话中once memories are initially encoded, they pass through a period of consolidation that bond them in long-term storage。Once和后句But now构成转折关系。

(Text 1)

M: I really don’t know how to teach my son. He’s getting far above himself.

W: You should send him to the boarding school. He needs a strict teacher.

M: Maybe you’re right. I’ll discuss it with my wife tonight.

(Text 2)

W: Jack, would you mind locking up the office this evening when everyone’s finished?

M: No problem. I have to work late tonight anyway.

(Text 3)

W: I’ll never take my car downtown again.

M: What’s the matter, Jane? Did you get another parking ticket, or you didn’t find a parking space?

W: I wish I were just that. My car broke down.

(Text 4)

W: The report says we will have another heavy sandstorm tomorrow. Why are there so many sandstorms these days?

M: I think the most important reason is that lots of trees have been cut down. As a result, there aren’t enough trees and grass to hold the soil in place. So earth and sand is easy to be blown up into the air when strong wind comes.

(Text 5)

M: Well, Christmas is almost here. So, what do you want this year?

W: If I can’t have a piano, um, I would have some little dolls. And if I can’t have some little dolls, a toy car would be fine.

(Text 6)

M: What a beautiful day to be at the park!

W: Oh, hi. Yes, it’s a nice day, isn’t it？

M: You look comfortable sitting on the grass in the shade reading.

W: It’s a quiet spot away from the playground.

M: This is a great spot for a picnic. This is much more peaceful than the other side near the fountain.

W: Yeah. Are you looking for the baseball field? It’s on the other side of the park.

M: Yes, I know. I’m taking a walk around the park to be prepared for the baseball game. Why don’t you come and watch?

(Text 7)

W: Are you going to the movie festival again this year?

M: I’d love to go, but I’m too busy next week. What are you going for?

W: The manager asked me to attend the first public performance of Wall Street Bears. You know, the movie is based on Nicholas Scott’s new novel.

M: It’s a fascinating novel. But I have to finish writing a series of articles about a new television drama.

W: Well, could you go with me on Saturday and come back on Sunday or Monday?

M: Sure.

(Text 8)

W: Can you hold the doors a minute, Mike? I’ve got a big bag here.

M: Up to the fourth floor?

W: Yes, please. Have you just finished your work?

M: Actually. I finished at lunchtime today because they’re replacing our computers. So I’ve been to the gym this afternoon.

W: Are you going out tonight?

M: No. Are you inviting me somewhere?

W: Oh, no, I’ve actually spent all day trying to write a history essay and I still haven’t finished it. I have to hand it in tomorrow. I started it last week …

M: Sorry. I can’t help you with that ... I never enjoyed studying history at school.

W: I don’t need any help with the essay. But you can help me by not playing your piano. I just can’t stand it anymore.

M: I’m sorry, but nobody’s ever complained before.

(Text 9)

W: In today’s Sporting World, we have a racing driver with us — Simon Webster. Welcome, Simon. Tell me, what skills do you need to be a top racing driver?

M: You do need to know something about how the car works. I think every time you do a race, it helps to be a bit frightened, as it means you really pay attention. That’s really important. Otherwise, it could be very dangerous.

W: How did you get interested?

M: My friends were all more interested in football, but my dad did a bit of racing and he let me try. And my mum also gives me so much support.

W: What advice would you give young racing drivers?

M: Some people say you should go to university first, but you’ll be too old when you have enough time. If you really want to be a top racing driver, train and get as fit as you can by going to the gym. Don’t risk playing other sports because you might get injured.

W: OK, thank you very much for talking to us today.

(Text 10)

M: Ladies and gentlemen, it is my great pleasure to present the first meeting of the Woodville Lunch for senior citizens. We all hope that this will be a great success and that there will be more to come. I am extremely pleased that so many of you are able to be here today and I give a warm welcome to you all. I would like to say a particularly warm welcome to Joan Miller, who is ninety-four years old today. I’m sure that you will all join me in wishing Joan a very happy birthday. The aim of the club is, of course, not only to provide food, but also mainly to provide companionship although it is extremely important that people of all ages eat nutritious food, and I can tell you now that it is delicious! I have already tasted it. However, the club exists not only to provide food and I’m sure that many of you would like to stay on after the lunch things have been cleared away so that you can have a chat. Today, we’re not in a hurry so that you can get to know each other. Indeed, I hope that will be the case because that will show that you are all enjoying yourselves and that is the main point of this club. Have fun!
