作文一:《【短文】神奇的选择》2300字
三篇短文,神奇的选择。
一、王维夺魁
来源:真正易水寒
易睡寒、郭梅梅、高球三位同学,请总结下文的中心思想。
唐朝王维,幼时博览群书,九岁可以挥笔作诗。他书法好,通音律,会画画。搁到现在,最次也能当个艺术培训学校校长。王维每日出入王侯将相家中,与之诗酒 唱和,其乐无穷。而岐王李隆范尤其喜欢王维。王维投桃报李,先后写下了《从岐王过杨氏别业应教》、《从岐王夜宴卫家山池应教》、《敕借岐王九成宫避暑应教》等诗,使岐王李隆范名留千古。
话说这年朝廷开科考试。王维想去应试。岐王说,据传张九皋已经走通了公主的后门,公主明确授意京兆试官要把张九皋录为第一。你没戏了。
王维撒娇,不嘛不嘛,人家也要考!
岐王灵机一动,决定把王维推荐给公主,让她亲自看看。第二日,岐王与王维来到公主府上。公主见王维齿白唇红,风度翩翩,不禁心动。问岐王,此为何人?岐王说,是个乐师。便让王维弹一首新曲给公主听。这是王维的专业啊,当然没问题。一曲哀婉的琵琶奏完,举座皆动容。公主问,这是什么曲子哦?王维答,是《郁轮袍》。
岐王趁热打铁说,他不但弹琴好,诗也写得不错。让他念几首自己的代表作给您听听?公主应允。于是王维从怀中掏出数卷诗稿献上。公主读完,惊道,原来是你写的哦,原来是你写的哦,这些诗我读过,还以为是前人作品哩。这么好的才华,为什么不参加科举考试,博个功名呢?
岐王说,坊间传您已经把头名许给了张九皋,王维考试还有什么用。
公主答道,其实我跟张九皋也不熟喽,有人求到我头上,只好做个顺水人情喽。现在如果王维想应试,头名就给他喽。
岐王和王维赶紧道谢,事情就这么定下了。接下来,王维报名,顺利夺魁。
易睡寒总结中心思想:是金子总会发光的。只要有才华,走遍天下都不怕。
郭梅梅总结中心思想:岐王一定是王维的干爸。有个好干爸,走遍天下都不怕。
高球总结中心思想:才华是个屁,干爹算个屎。要想往上爬,就要找最大的靠山。我爱公主。
二、李兆基炼金术:“穿云箭、过三关”给我的一点启示
来源:思索吧
最近凤凰网做了一个关于香港富豪的专访,其中就有恒基地产主席李兆基。这个被誉为“亚洲股神”的李先生在谈到自己积累财富过程中,有一个理想叫:“穿云箭、过三关”。
从报道得知,所谓三关就是:第一关是以一博二、第二关是二博四,第三关是四博八。
第一关成功实现:他先买日本债券,成功令资金翻一翻,以一博二过关。
第二关也成功实现:通过投资来港上市的国企,二博四过关。
第三关遇到了“零八年的一场金融海啸,恒生指数由三万二千点,暴跌至一万一千点,令本来以一变八,几何式的投资回报计划,打回原形。”
这个大富豪的经历对那些靠交易为生的人有很大的借鉴意义。
“止损”一词对多数投资股票或者期货的人应该不陌生吧。大家都知道一个基本的常识,市场很难准确预测。所以为了防止那些“黑天鹅事件”的发生,时刻都给自己的投资设置一个止损点就成了保护个人财产遭遇不幸的唯一出路。
李先生的故事也告诉我们这个世界上不存在“股神”,我们只能顺应市场赚钱,做出理性的选择,确不可抱有征服市场的自负心理。
三、选择那件让你感到痛苦的事情,你就能超越自我
来源:惜墨
生活中我们时刻都会面临着选择。有的时候选择很简单,比如地上有一张100元钱和一张10元钱,你会选择哪张?如果是个正常人都会毫不犹豫的做出正确的选择 ——当然是两张都捡起来。可是,有些选择并不是这么简单,比如说,此刻你本来计划着要去学习英语,而电视上正好播放着你最喜欢的电视节目。你该如何抉择?
虽然你对学习英语并不讨厌,但是似乎电视节目的吸引力对你更大一些,于是,你更倾向于先去看电视。这个选择的过程中,你选择了那个比较容易的事情,看电视不需要你动脑子,并且你可以得到快乐。但是,英语呢?学习英语当然会给你带来一些头脑上的痛苦,要记忆单词,练习听力,多么无聊啊。看电视多好啊,又不用费脑子。
但我要说的是,如果你真的想让自己的实力提高,你必须逼着自己选择那件让你感到痛苦的事情。为什么呢?通常我们选择逃避一件事情,大多数是因为这件事情我们做的并不好,或者说我们并不擅长这件事情。我们必须承认自己的不足,然后勇敢面对自己的缺点,努力去弥补,这样才能 提高自己的水平。
选择去做容易的事情是人类的天性,这是一种自我保护机制,可以让自己保持更舒适的状态。但是,这种保护机制在某种程度上限制了我们的发展与提高。当我们克服种种诱惑,选择那件较难的事情,我们会感到很痛苦,但是宝剑锋从磨砺出,当我们做完一件令我们感到痛苦的事情,我们会成长很多。
有很多人问我如何进行自我提升,我想选择那件让你感到痛苦的事情,并且耐着性子把它做的很好,就是对自己的一种超越。每天我们都会面临着无数的充满诱惑的艰难选择,我们是否能够看清楚那些选择本质?
拖延,犹豫,畏惧这些令我们困扰的问题怎么解决?答案就在于我们自己的选择。当你选择那些令你感到痛苦的事情,你对拖延说了“不”,你对犹豫说了“不”,你对畏惧说了“不”。当你一次次的对这些缺点勇敢说“不”的时候,你就是在超越自我。每天的选择都是在对苍天大树的一次砍击,即使每一次微不足道,但是日积月累,你的意志力会像肌肉一样逐渐成长变得健壮。
当我去实践这个简单道理的时候,我失败过很多次,有的时候我不得不屈服于另一个自己——那个好逸恶劳的自我,也为此感到愧疚和shame。但是,我不会放弃努力,战胜自己,并不是一个光靠嘴上说的就能完成的,其中包含着一次次痛苦的抉择和一次次的舍弃。在成长的路上,我们会遇到很多选择,选择那些让你感到痛苦的事情,会让你更好的成长。
下一次的选择:英语OR电视?这取决于你对自己的将来有怎样的期待。每一次选择,也许就是一个蝴蝶效应的开始。

范例:时间机器Time Machine
The Time Machine is a novel by H. G. Wells, first published in 1895 and later directly adapted into at least two theatrical films of the same name, as well as two television versions, and a large number of ic book adaptations. It indirectly inspired many more works of fiction in all media. This 38,000 word novella is generally credited with the popularization of the concept of time travel using a vehicle that allows an operator to travel purposefully and selectively. The term “time machine”, coined by Wells, is now
universally used to refer to such a vehicle. It was also inspired by Charles Darwin and On the Origin of Species, showing us humans that have evolved into different species. Wells introduces an early example of the Dying Earth subgenre as well.
The book’s protagonist is an amateur inventor or scientist living in London who is never named; he is identified simply as The Time Traveller. Having demonstrated to friends using a miniature model that time is a fourth dimension, and that a suitable
3 / 5
apparatus can move back and forth in this fourth dimension, he builds a full-scale model capable of carrying himself. He sets off on a journey into the future.
The Time Traveller details the experience of time travel and the evolution of his surroundings as he moves through time. While travelling through time, his machine allows him to observe the changes of the outside world in fast motion. He observes the sun and moon traversing the sky and the changes to the buildings and landscape around him as he travels through time. His machine produces a sense of disorientation to its occupant, and a blurring or faintness of the surroundings outside the machine.
His journey takes him to the year 802,701, where he finds an apparently peaceful, pastoral,
munist,[1] future filled with happy, simple humans who call themselves the Eloi. The Eloi are about four feet tall (~122 cm), pink-skinned and frail-looking, with curly hair, small ears and mouths and large eyes. Males and females seem to be quite similar in build and appearance. They have high-pitched, soft voices and
4 / 5
speak an unknown language. They appear to be quite unintelligent and child-like and live without quarrels or conflict.
Soon after his arrival he rescues Weena, a female Eloi he finds drowning in a river. Much to his surprise she is grateful to him and insists on following him.

人生处处面临选择 如何选择是关键

Directions:
Study the following picture carefully and write an essay in which you should
1) describe the picture,
2) interpret its meaning, and
3) point out its implications in our life.
范文1:
This simple picture represents a situation that every person must face: when approaching a junction, which direction should one choose?
Most viewers can empathize with the sense of hesitation and uncertainty embodied in such an image. Without exception, everyone has to make choices in life, whether they concern school, career, or love. While some choices are simple, one cannot avoid the task of making difficult decisions.
Choices are often directly related to one's happiness. University students,for example, face a hard and crucial decision upon graduating. Many students have difficulty deciding whether to continue studying or begin developing a career. Every individual is different, and one must take the factors of one's personal life into consideration. In addition
to an awareness of specific circumstances, however, making the right choice also depends on correct appraisal of oneself.
In order to choose correctly, therefore, one must be both realistic and self aware. Furthermore, once having made a
decision, one should seriously accept and pursue the path one has chosen, and strive towards the realization of one's goal with spirit.
译文:
这幅简单的画表现了我们每个人都要面对的情况:走到叉路口
了,该选择哪条路呢,
绝大多数读者都能感受到这幅画中包含的犹豫和彷徨。毫无例外,
每个人在一生中都要多次做出选择——无论是涉及到学业、职业还是
爱情。虽然有些选择很容易,但一个人无法回避艰难的选择。
选择通常直接关系到一个人的幸福。比如对大学生来说,临近毕
业就面临着一个艰难而至关重要的选择——很多学生难以决定是继
续求学还是开始自己的职业生涯。每个人的情况都不相同,所以一个
人应该把自己生活的方方面面都考虑到。除了对周围特定的环境要有
清楚的了解外,做出正确的选择还依赖于有一个正确的自我评价。因
此,一个人为了做出正确选择,必须既现实又清醒。此外,一个人一
旦做出了决定,就应该严肃地承认并奉行既定的路线,鼓起勇气为实
现自己的目标而奋斗。
范文2:
In the picture we can see a man standing at a crossroad with two simi
lar roads, and trying to decide which way to take. In daily life we are often faced with such choices. More often than not, we have to make cardinal decisions indepentently. This moment
is very important for everyone to go through.
In order to make a decision that we will not regret, we should bear these two principles in mind: thinking before acting, and never missing any opportunities that arise. On one hand, we should have an apparent, objective judgment about ourselves while maintaining a clear idea about the world around us. On the other hand, we should also think about opportunity. Many people may not quite agree with this and think that opportunity is so rare that only the luckiest people e across it. However, opportunity is open to everyone and one should make good use of it when confronted with it. One should take advantage of it just like the proverb states: “Opportunities are only from the prepared minds.”
So when one is faced with choices the next time, remember that using the mind and taking advantage of good opportunities will pave the way to success.
译文:
从这幅画中我们可以看到,一个人正站在叉路岐途之前,等待他
的是要决定究竟走哪条路。人生中我们经常会面临这样的选择。我们
还时常必须独立做出重大决定。这是我们每个人都要经历的重要时
刻。
如果我们不想为自己做出的决定而感到后悔,就必须遵循这两个
原则:一是三思而后行;二是不要错过任何机会。一方面,我们要对
自身做出客观公正的判断,同时还要对我们周围的世界有一个清醒的
认识。另一方面,我们对待机遇要用心思考。有些人可能不太承认机
遇,认为机遇太少,而且只是那些幸运儿的专利。然而,机遇是属于
每一个人的,所以在面对机遇时我们要充分利用它。每个人都应利用
机遇,正如这句名言所说:“机遇只留给那些做好准备的人。”
所以当你再一次面对机遇时,请不要忘记开动脑筋,莫失良机,成功
一定属于你

大学英语四级考试单项选择短文理解的作题技巧
马 平
(山东中医药大学外国语学院 山东济南 250355)
CET4单项选择短文理解,文章体裁主要以说明文和议论文为主,测试要求考生在阅读完一篇300到350词左右的文章后解答5个以单项选择题形式进行考查的题目。《教学要求》对考生的一般要求是“能基本读懂一般性题材的英文文章,阅读速度达到每分钟70词”。这一题型主要考查以下几个方面的能力:掌握所读材料的主旨和大意;了解说明主旨和大意的事实和细节;既理解字面的意思,也能根据所读材料进行一定的判断和推论;既理解个别句子的意义,也理解上下文的逻辑关系。
纵观今年单项选择短文理解,我们可以发现,文章体裁广泛,六篇短文均选自欧美的核心报刊,措辞严谨,段落及字数与往年相当。其中关于慈善家和商人的破产经济类的两篇,图书馆话题、关于ZEH (zero-energy-home )的生态主题、Junk Food的生活类文章和有关Romantic Love 的人文类各一篇。题型稳定,基本上是细节题和推理题。与以前的四级阅读真题相比,语义题和主旨题趋向消失,态度题几乎绝迹。本次的所有仔细阅读从题目到选项明显加长,单选项字数从5-14词不等,个别题目每个选项就可单独成行,并没有单个词备选项,这导致很多考生读不懂题目,更不用说对选项进行有效排除了。
在这里,我们共同探讨一下这一题型的作题技巧。
一、一般做题程序
(一)先看题干,再分析原文,最后做题目。 一加四加四的模式,即一分钟时间把后面的题目看一下,分别是考什么方向,考词汇,还是考推理,还是考细节。题目主要是关注什么,划出中心词,四个选项就不用看了。接下来用四分钟左右时间把文章看一下。再用四分钟左右时间做题目。
(二)在做题过程中,一定要回顾一下文章讲述的内容。看完文章,凭着主观印象做题,就会感觉文章非常简单,做题也非常简单,但是发现做出的答案却是错误的。所以,应回到文章,分析相关内容,防止用主观印象来做题。
二、克服阅读太慢或太快
有的同学,阅读太快,在做题过程中,总是怕时间不够,拼命往下做,文章没看懂,就开始做题。他回到文章,再去分析文章本身,而导致时间被浪费了。所以,过于求快,实际上结果是变慢了。有效方法,就是在看文章的时候,要做标记。边看,边做标记。转折关系、因果关系,比较关系等重要的语言现象稍微关注一下。原文中的关键词,与行为相关的单词,文章主题所在地方,有关观点性的语言、或者表示结论的一些地方,都要关注一下。 阅读太慢,可能是由于不良阅读习惯导致的。有的同学看文章,都是一个单词,一个单词地看,视野的宽度比较窄。具体来说,经过锻炼,每一眼看下去,能够看两到三个单词,后来可以扩展到四到五个,视野宽度。
三、关注一些关系词
(一)表示结论性的语言考点越来越多了。文章中,一句话是结论性的语言,它有可能是考题。所以,一些表示观点性的语言,谁谁said ,或者谁think 这样的语言出现,大家就要稍微关注一下。当然,一个人讲的观点,比方说,某某人发现,一般find 这个单词;某某研究,或者是某某实验,show 什么东西,这些单词,可以表示一种结论。
(二)文章第一段,如果包含一些观点性,结论性的语言,经常用来设计考题。因为从近几年的统计数字来讲,四级里面,凡是在第一段,有表示一个行为的目的,有表示一种言论或另外一些事情的目的,在文章第一段出现,这个地方一般会涉及考题。所以,我们在看文章时,第一段一定要仔细看。然而,有一些语言是说明这个人来自哪个地方,这个人的职位或
者是工作的环境是哪个地方,这个地方的语言就没必要看;一连串的专有名词,名词限定或者是说明一个问题,这些专有名词是没有意义的,一般不会考专有名词本身是什么含义。
(三)意思比较相近的地方,尤其是并列的地方,你要注意。但是,只有一些重要的地方,才会考。好几个句子,开头相似,表示并列,这些并列句子比较简单,往往不会考到,那就得看得快一点儿。四、有效四、排除四、排除干扰选项
(一)选项合理但不正确。2002年CET4中,我们考过关于英雄这篇文章,题中很多选项看起来很合理,比如说英雄使人们更加强大,使人们更有自信等,但文章没有谈到,就不能入选。
(二)选项模仿原文。模仿原文有两种,整个选项80、90%都和文章是一样,或个别单词的改动;部分单词与文章一样。如一个选项有八个单词,有四个单词和文章及意思一模一样,但另外四个单词不存在。一般来说,模仿原文的选项极有可能是错的。所以,当碰到模仿原文的选项时,一定要仔细分析,千万不要盲目选择。
(三)选择最佳选项。这类选项是考生出错率比较高的选项。很多选项都错,或者是四个选项都错或者是都对,我们选择一个最佳选项。
五、主动降低难度
(一)要联系文章主题。 只要是这个题目和文章的主题是比较相近的,那么这个选项一般极有可能是对的。如果选项和文章的主题相去甚远,或者非常肤浅,不能说明一个重要话题,这个一般是干扰性选项。
(二)选项本身有些弱点。题目是观点性、结论性的题目,答案应该是结论性的,概括性的。题目是考特别细选项范围很大,具有概括性,就是错误的。
(三)选项特别绝对化,十有八九是一个干扰选项。四级里,很多答案是留有余地,一般具有让步的语气。
六、四级考试阅读理解中的四不要
(一)“指读”,即为了“集中注意力”,用手指或笔尖指着文章逐词阅读。一遇到生词,便停顿下来,无法在通篇理解的基础上继续进行阅读。
(二)“唇读”,即有的学生在阅读中喜欢读出声来,或即使不出声,嘴唇了居动,或脑子里也在想着读音,无形当中影响了大脑的思维速度。
(三)“回读”,即在阅读中遇到生词或不熟悉的短语时,返回句首甚至段首重读;还有相当多的学生对阅读忆经产生心理定势,认为自己第一遍读不懂,因此反复多遍,浪费很多时间。
(四)“译读”,即在阅读过程中,不断地进行逐词逐句的翻译,通过译成母语来辅助理解。由于没有掌握正确的阅读方法,习惯于在不加限定的时间内,对一小块文章精雕细琢,导致了逐词阅读接受信息的习惯。
以上谈论了单项选择短文理解的一些作题技巧,希望对备战全国大学英语四级考试的学子们有所帮助。
