It was about midday. I’d left work early in the morning to cash a cheque. I walked along to the bank, and found that there weren’t too many people about ten or eleven customers in there, which was pretty unusual for those central city banks. I waited until it was my turn and just went up to the desk and started to talk to the bank clerk. He had a really strange expression on his face -- just sort of blank stare at least I thought he was looking at me and then I realized he was staring over my shoulder. I began to turn round to see what he was looking at. At the same moment the outside bank guard came flying through the door and lay face down on the floor and following him through the door were three frightening masked men. The at least I think the one in front was carrying a gun. Whether or not they said anything at that point I can’t remember to this day, or whether people just automatically put their hands up I’ve just no idea. For a few moments there was just total silence, suddenly broken by the telephone ringing and I remember thinking and wondering who was on the other end of the telephone. Nobody went to answer the telephone, so this thing just kept on ringing and ringing. Then two of the masked men went to the counter, jumped over it and got the cashiers and the bank clerks to start filling the bags with cash. While the two were getting the money, the one at the door who was covering us with the gun was a bit frightened. He started swearing at them, and telling them to hurry up, to get a move on. They jumped back over the counter. One of them slipped as he landed on the floor and fell over and the other two swore at him again. They left through the door. Warning us, “Don’t move, stay like that with your hands up for ten minutes.” And then they just disappeared. Again back to total silence. People put their hands down, I put my hands down but I just stayed exactly where I was.小题1:What does the writer mean by saying “…a pretty unusual number for those central banks” in the first paragraph?A．More customers than usual were staying in the bank.B．Less bank clerks than expected were in the bank.C．There were often more than a dozen customers in the bank.D．More banks should be open to serve customers in the city center.小题2: The bank clerk wore a blank expression on his face probably because ________.A．he was feeling upset at that momentB．he felt puzzled and sensed something terribleC．he was required to keep silenceD．he was threatened with a gun by robbers小题3:Which of the following is true according to the passage?A．The customers didn’t wait in line but jumped the queue because of the confusion.B．All the people in the bank except the writer put their hands up automatically.C．Nobody answered the phone because all the clerks were busy with work.D．the bank workers were forced to fill the robbers’ bags with cash.小题4: What’s the best title of this passage?A．A Street GangB．A Strange BankC．A Bank RobberyD．A Horrible Adventure

人物传记类阅读故事类阅读
人物传记类文章的文体特征：
人物传记是记叙文体的一种，主要描写某人的生平事迹、趣闻轶事、生活背景、个性特征、成长奋斗历程等，包含记叙文的时间、地点、人物、事件等要素。其特点是以时间的先后或事件的发展为主线，空间或逻辑线索贯穿文章始终，脉络清楚，可读性较强。 人物传记类文章的阅读策略和解题技巧：
1、把握文体特征，注意写作手法如前文所述，人物传记是记叙文体的一种，因此在阅读时要把握好时间、地点、人物和事件这四大要素。其次，还应该注意人物传记类文章的结构多按时间顺序排列，一般采用倒叙的写作手法，有时也采用插叙和补叙等手段。弄清楚人物传记类文章的特征和写作手法，能帮助考生在阅读和回答问题时做到高效省时、准确无误。 2、抓住题干关键词，采用寻读的方法查找细节描述事实细节题是人物传记类文章的主要题型，一般常见以下几种类型： (1)对号入座题：这种题的答案一般在原文中可以直接找到，只要读懂文章，掌握文章中的事实，如时间、地点、事件等细节问题，就能选对正确答案。 (2)词义转换题：这种题常常是原文有关词语和句子的转换，而不能在原文中直接找到。它要求考生能理解原文中某个短语或句子的含义，从而找到与答案意思相同的词语和句子。 (3)是非题：该题型俗称“三缺一”题型，即题目四个选项中有三个符合文章内容，剩下一个不符合。题干多为：Which of the following isTRUE?或者三个不符合文章内容，剩下一个符合，题干多为：Which of the following…isNOTtrue?或All the following are true EXCEPT(4)排序题：这种题要求考生根据动作发生的先后顺序和句子之间的逻辑关系，找出事件发生的正确顺序。可采用“首尾定位法”，即先找出第一个动作和最后一个动作，迅速缩小选择范围，从而快速选出正确答案。 (5)指代理解题：一般是在人物或事物关系比较复杂的情况下使用的一种题型，所以理清人物及事物之间的逻辑关系是关键所在。可采用“逻辑关系梳理法”，使人物或事件关系清晰条理。不管题型如何，在做事实细节题时，可采用比较实用的方法一有目的的阅读。在阅读时，首先看题目要求我们理解什么细节，找出关键词，然后以此为线索，运用寻读的技巧迅速在文章里找出相应的段落、句子或短语。认真比较选项和文中细节的区别，在正确理解细节的前提下，确定最佳答案。这样一来，既提高了阅读的速度，又能确保答案的准确率。同时，建议阅读文章时把与答案相符的句子或短语用红线标示出来，标号注上是哪一题答案的相关句子，这样在检查时就不必重新阅读整篇文章了。 3、抽丝剥茧，推理判断深层含义推理判断题主要提问那些未曾在文中说明，但已特别暗示的内容，考查考生对文章的准确理解和判断。人物传记类文章常见的推理判断题型为： (1)细节推断题：要求考生根据语篇关系，推断具体细节，如时间、地点、人物关系、人物身份、事件等。一般可根据短文提供的信息，或者借助生活常识进行推理判断。 (2)因果推断题：要求考生根据已知结果推测导致结果的可能原因。考生要准确掌握文章的内涵，理解文章的真正含义。 (3)人物性格、作者态度及观点判断题：人物传记类文章中有些是考查考生对作者的主导思想、被描写人物的语气、言语中流露的情绪、性格倾向和作者或文中人物态度、观点等方面的理解题。推理判断题要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上做出一定推论和判断，从而得到文章的隐含意义和深层意义。解答此类题时，要注意： (1)吃透文章的字面意思，从字里行间捕捉有用的提示和线索，这是推理的前提和基础。 (2)对文字的表面信息进俐宅掘加工，由表及里，由浅入深。从具体到抽象，从特殊到一般，通过分析、综合、判断等进行符合逻辑的推理。不能就事论事，断章取义，以偏概全。 (3)基于文章内容，以文章提供的事实和线索为依据，立足已知，推断未知。不能主观臆想，凭空想象，随意揣测，更不能以自己的观点代替作者的观点。 (4)把握句、段之间的逻辑关系，了解语篇的结构。要体会文章的基调，揣摸作者的态度，摸准逻辑发展的方向，悟出作者的弦外之音。 (5)注意文中所用词句的感情色彩，是讽刺性的，批评性的，赞成性的，还是反对性的，以便推测作者的观点和态度。故事类阅读概念：
这类文章一般描述的是某一件具体事情的发生发展或结局，有人物、时间、地点和事件。命题往往从故事的情节、人物或事件的之间的关系、作者的态度及意图、故事前因和后果的推测等方面着手，考查学生对细节的辨认能力以及推理判断能力。故事类阅读应试技巧：
1、抓住文章的6个要素：阅读时要学会从事情本身的发展去理解故事情节而不要只看事件在文中出现的先后顺序。因此，无论是顺叙还是倒叙，阅读此类文章时，必须要找到它结构中的5个W（when, where, who, why, what）和1个H（how），不过不是每篇都会完整地交待六个要素。毫无疑问，寻出这些元素是能够正确快速解题的一个先决条件。 2、注意作者的议论和抒情：高考英语阅读理解故事类文章常伴随着作者思想情感的流露和表达，因此议论和抒情往往夹杂其中。行文时或按事情发生发展的先后时间进行或按事情发生发展的地点来转换，也可能按事情发展的阶段来布局。在引出话题，讲完一件事情后，作者往往会表达个人感悟或提出建议等。这些体现作者观点或思想的语句在阅读时可以划线，它们往往体现文章中心或者写作意图，属于必考点，所以要仔细体会。 3、结合前两点归纳文章中心，把握作者态度：故事类文章是通过记叙一件事来表达中心思想的，它是文章的灵魂。归纳文章中心思想时，尤其要分析文章的结尾，因为很多文章卒章显志，用简短的议论、抒情揭示文章中心；文章中议论抒情的句子往往与中心密切相关；也有的文章需要在结合概括各段大意的基础上归纳中心。另外，叙述一件事必有其目的，或阐明某一观点，或赞美某种品德，或抨击某种陋习，这就要求我们在阅读时，通过对细节（第1点中的六要素）的理解，把握作者的态度。 4、有章有据进行解题判断：分析文章，归纳主题，属于分析、概括、综合的表述能力的考查。切忌脱离文章，架空分析，一定让分析在文章中有依据。

语言源于生活,建议如下: 1、 心理素质影响学习效果 首先,要对外语保持长时间稳定而积极的态度.这可以归结为“恒心”两个字.有了它,才能像蚕吃桑叶一样,一口又一口,坚持不懈地去啃,直到预定目标顺利攻克. 其次,还需要一定的自律能力.该复习时不复习,遗忘规律就会无情地吞噬着你的一部分记忆成果；该补漏时不补漏,漏洞就会不断积累扩大.所以需要有自律能力,约束自己按科学原则去运转. 2、 看写读听背——多管齐下效率高难度 一般来说,大家学英语都有各自的一套办法：有的只爱大声读个不停,有的只爱闷头看个不休,有的不写就记不住,有的不听心里就没有底.这些方法,虽然都有一定的作用,但记忆科学通过大量的实验,无可辩驳地证明：眼手口舌脑的综合运用,才能更快更深地在大脑皮层上留下不易磨灭的印象. 学外语尤其需要多种感官的综合运用.否则,搞不好学成“残疾外语”,或一听就发慌两耳一抹黑的“聋子外语”. 3、 “活”单词与“死”单词 经常听说某某发下宏愿：要一口气背下一本几千甚至几万词的字典,认为这样可以一劳永逸地解决单词量的问题.不幸的是,这样做的人,大部分都失败了.背了若干遍的单词,仍很难在脑子里生根,不是很快忘掉,就是搅成一团乱麻. 因为他们背的都是脱离了句子和课文的“死”单词,大脑对这类东西格外难以留下印象.著名的心理学家艾宾浩斯曾拿自己做过对比实验,结果：记住18个有意义的音节,只需要9遍,而记住18个无意义的音节,却用了80遍.不仅如此,孤立地背“死”词,还难以掌握它在句子中的灵活用法.因此,即使记住了一部分“死”词,它们也多属“残障人士”罢了. 如何使单词“起死回生”呢?我的办法是——背课文! 课文不局限于教科书,也可以是讲演稿,新闻评论,散文……总之,就是能把一个个冰冷的单词变成生机勃勃的故事的文章.在大量的整段的背诵中,多次的重复不断激活记忆的单词,其用法自然而然就深入骨髓了.实际上,这种“深入骨髓”就形成了学语言最重要的“语感”! 4、 复习间隔合理,可以省时高效 英语是一门记忆量很大的学科,有效的记忆就成了一个关键.著名科学家茅以升先生,是个记忆力超群的人.人们问到他的记忆秘诀,他的回答是：重复!重复!再重复!重复被人们称为学习之母.不重复,记住的知识就会在遗忘率的支配下,不多久就只剩下一点儿“残汤剩饭”.心理学家发现：两次复习的时间间隔至少应大于是30分钟,但应小于是16小时.因为,在已经记清了一批单词的情况下,如果在职30分钟内就开始复习,不仅不能提高记忆的效果,反而会对大脑巩固原有的记忆内容的生理过程形成干扰,是弊大于利；而且16小时以后再复习,被遗忘的单词就比较多,白花了精力. 5、 把英语作为一门文化来学 正如不懂中国文化就不能理解“中庸之道”、“墨守成规”一样,缺乏西方文化常识就难以理解什么叫“This is my Waterloo!”(“这是我的滑铁卢!”指一次失败.) 因此,要想把英语学深学透,必须把英语不仅仅作为语言,而且作为文化去感悟!而这,在我看来,也许是英语学习最有魅力的地方. 如何培养自制力 有的人管得住自己,有的人管不住自己.管得住自己的人不仅不会沦为“人渣”,还有可能成为“人杰”.管不住自己的人不仅不会成为“人杰”,还有可能成为“人渣”. 所谓“管得住自己”,就是有足够的自制力推动自己做该做的事,并阻止自己不做不该做的事. 几种类型题的学习方法 怎样做完形填空题 完形填空题是一篇短文,中间留有10个空白,每个空白为一题,每题有四个选择项,要求考生在全面理解内容的基础上选择一个最佳答案,使短文的意思和结构恢复完整.这部分考试的目的是检查考生综合运用语言的能力. 本题考查的重点是语法结构,也有一些常用词和惯用语的用法.这些问题都在前面几章讨论过了,不同的是前面那些部分都是单句,我们只要对一个句子进行分析,从中找出解题的线索；这里是短文,解题时不能孤立地看一个句子,还要顾及上下文地关系,有些解题的线索可能要从与之相关的别的句子里去找.可以说它不仅像语法或词汇题,还和阅读理解题有相通的一面. 做完形填空题,最好是跳开空格,先将短文快速通读一遍,对短文要说的内容有个大致的了解.然后按照解语法或词汇题的方法,参照上下文选择答案. 如《样题》地完形填空部分,我们粗粗看了一遍后知道它说的是英语句子的含义和语境的关系.有些题的解法和前三章所说的思路一样,不再.我们看看不大一样的例子.如第4题的四个选择项是： A. moreover B. And C. Hence D. Consequently 这四个词都可以来承接前后两个句子的意思.我们看它的前一句说：“它的后面有个问号.”接下来说：“有时‘How are you?’是一个问句.”这两个句子如果孤立地看没有联系,不成文章.要是我们在后一句前加了Hence（因此）,那就表示出因果关系,上下文在逻辑上语气就连贯了.事实上C就是最佳答案. 再如第9题的四个选择项是： A. so B. such C. this D. thus 选什么为答案同样要看前一句话：“但是多数时候我们说这些话时,不要求别人回答.”根据它,我们选A为答案.为什么呢?因为so这个词可以代替前文的词语或意思,具体到这一句,它实际代表了in such a way .其余三个词是起不了这个作用的. 关于听力的一个建议 听力和阅读是紧密联结在一起的,阅读文章不流畅顺利,意思不明白的,往往在听力上也多少存在一些问题.所以,首先要注意阅读能力,多记忆例句和背诵英文课文等,能够脱口而出的时候,听的时候也就很容易明白文章在说什么.这是最重要的.其次是做题技巧,拿到试卷,在每组题前,首先快速浏览题目和选项,大致推测内容可能是什么,这有助于听,尤其是长篇文章的听.其次,注意题型都是有规律的,比如对话测试中一般考察时间、价格、数字,简单的事实推断等,快速浏览的时候就要注意它大致属于哪一类,听的时候也便有重点了.其次是长篇文章,注意开始和结尾部分是最重要的,尤其是第一句和最后一句,往往是命题的出处.还有就是一般出题的部分,读到此处的时候往往语速会减慢,或者比较清晰.最主要的还是口语和阅读,这方面强的话,辅以一定技巧,攻克听力当不是难事. 英语作文怎么写? 相对于英语的其它题目,作文的综合要求可能更高一点,那么我们就以这次考试的作文为例子来讲讲英语作文怎么写. 首先我先说说同学们在做作文的时候常常遇到的问题,然后我再给出一个大概的解决方法,最后呢,我们联系这次考试的作文题来实战一番. 从我们题目的要求来看,是一个记事的记叙文,并且是一个看图说话类的,所有的素材都在我们的图片里面了.那么我们就要先把图片仔细的看一下,选好线索,显然图片里面的钟暗示我们选择时间为我们的叙事线索.其次要选择好一个时态的问题,我们可以以晚上回忆的方式来叙述这个事情.那么都是过去时. 那么开头是一个比较困难的事情,大家也许不知道从何说起.这里我给出了一个例子. Our class had already planned to go to Handian Nursing Home to visit those old people living there . We were all eager to go there as soon as we can. And today this time really came, so you could image how happy we were. At about 8:00 in the morning , with tools in hands, we went out of our school towards the Handian Nursing Home 下面我们不必过多的描述在路上的情形,我们重点将描述在敬老院里面的情形. It was about 9:00 when we arrived there. Though we were a little tired, none of us wanted to have a rest. As some of those old people seldom came out, so some of us helped them walk around to breathe the fresh air. Some help them to wash their clothes, and the others swept the ground. Most of us never do such things at home, so we maybe didn’t do these well, but we all tried our best. At about 11:55,we had lunch with them, and our monitor stood for us to bless them devoutly. During the lunch time, we were all very happy. After lunch, we had a party with those old people. Before we came here, we had already prepared some songs for them. As we expected, they all felt great pleased with our programs. Though maybe we didn’t performed well, the smile on their faces made us very happy. 该到说再见的时候了,一定要注意收尾工作. Happy time always goes fast. Though we didn’t notice that we had stayed here for a long time, the clock on the wall informed us clearly that it was time for us to go home. So we had to say good bye to those old people. On the way home, we all said this was really a significant day, and we decided to come back again whenever we had time. 记不住单词怎么办? 如果你在一个月的阅读中,同一个单词碰到了7遍,此后将永远记住这个单词了. 最好的记忆法宝是常常使用,阅读的时候多查查单词,读得多了不认识的渐渐少了,这种方法最牢固的. 单词记忆重在意思和用法的记忆,因为如果你只简单记住形式,在考试的时候却主要考察用法和意义.所以单词最好是放在课文句子中来记忆,一要记住形式,二就是记住用法. 同时,不能只记不练习,需要做一些习题,通过习题强化记忆.还要注意在阅读中来强化,阅读的时候见到单词多了,自然印象也就深了. 我的心得 大量的记住一些感兴趣的文章,即使记不住的话,那么你也应该大量的朗读.选择一个好的时间比如早上,早起 一会儿,携带着你的书来到教室大声的诵读（若是有条件的话那么找到一个空旷的地方：））.不要怕难为情,要正视自己的弱点!正如李阳所说的： I can't stand my poor Englishi! I can't stand my ten years wasted time! I can't stand being look donw apon! 如果真的作到以上的话,单词就不是问题了!努力呀!相信自己!YES I CAN ! （1）要过好语音关.把每一个音标发正确,注意改正有问题的音素,特别是那些容易混淆的音素,尽早地掌握国际音标,并尽量的掌握一些读音规则,尽快地能利用读音规则来拼单词,掌握读音规则对单词的记忆和拼写非常有用. （2）掌握一定数量的英语单词.对于学习者来说掌握英语词汇是一难关,学习单词要从单词的形、音、义这三方面去掌握,要注意单词的一词多义,一词多类的用法,要学会一些构词法的知识,来扩展词汇量.学习单词要在语言材料中去学,要结合词组,通过句子,阅读文章来活记单词,死记的单词是记不牢的.坚持在读、说前,先反复听,听的时候反应单词、句子的意思和节奏,想一下单词的拼法、句子结构.并要同学习语法规则有机结合起来进行.（3）掌握好基本语法.语法在学习英语中也很重要,它能帮助我们把握住英语的基本规律,通过例句或语言现象把死的语法规则要记住,活的规则要通过做大量的练习掌握.总之学习英语要通过听、说、读、写、译来进行操练,不但要注意数量,更重要的是要注意质量,尤其是基本知识要掌握的准确,熟练.只有经过大量的实践,才能做到熟能生巧,运用自如. 单词记忆是很重要的 要过好语音关.把每一个音标发正确,注意改正有问题的音素,特别是那些容易混淆的音素,尽早地掌握国际音标,并尽量的掌握一些读音规则,尽快地能利用读音规则来拼单词,掌握读音规则对单词的记忆和拼写非常有用. 这是我的经验 希望你英语成绩很快提高上来

It was Thanksgiving morning. I was busy preparing the traditional Thanksgiving turkey when the doorbell rang. I opened the front door and saw two small children in rags huddling together on the top step.
