7.10年到14年山东高考英语作文题目及范文,
在本句中,I 是可以明确感知她的愤怒的,只能用Could。might 的程度太轻。
关于could 和might 的用法一下给出详解:
用于疑问句表示请求时,一般只用Could,且可用于各人称。如:
Could you help me explain the difference between "might" and "could"?
Could I use your mobile phone a little while?
上句可用May代替:May I use your mobile phone a little while?
用Might也是可以的,但不常见。
2. could和might都可用在条件句中,表示假想的情况。表示“本来会、本来可以/能够”。例如:
If you tried you could/might do the work better. 如果你试试的话,准能把那项工作干得更好。
You could have met her if you had gone that way. 如果你走那条路的话,你准能遇见她。
此句中的could如改成might则表示:……,你也许能见到他。
They could/might have worked it out if they had asked me for help. 如果他们来向我求助的话,他们本能够做出来的。
He could/might have give the answer, but he refused to. 他本来能够回答的,但他拒绝这么做。
You were stupid to go skiing there — you could have broken your leg. 你真笨,竟会到那地方滑雪。你本来会摔断腿的。
上面的例句中用might则因其语气较轻而语意效果不甚理想。
在此场合,could和might的区别是could较might的可能性强。
3. couldn't be + 比较级句型不能用might代替。如:
Their lifestyles couldn't be more different. 他们的生活方式极为不同。
4. could和might都可用在表示“结果”的状语从句中,同样,could语气较重些。例如:
He expressed his ideas clearly so that the average person might understand. 他把他的意思清楚地表达出来,以便一般人能听明白。
5. might as well表示“不妨、可以、倒不如”,此时的might是不能用could代替的。例如:
We might as well look for some food now. 现在我们不妨找些吃的东西。
I expect I might as well be going. 我希望我可以走了。
Since it’s a fine day we might as well walk. 既然是一个晴朗的天,我们不妨步行。
We might as well have gone home as you suggested. 我们还不如按你建议的回家去呢。

倒装用法归纳之一
倒装是中学阶段的一个重要的语法知识点,也是高考命题热点之一。下面笔者就来谈谈它的用法。
一、完全倒装
完全倒装是把谓语动词完全置于主语前,其中主语必须是名词,若为代词则不倒装,这种结构中谓语部分无助动词( be ,do ,have )和情态动词,但可以有连系动词 be .须用完全倒装的情况有:
1. 当句首为副词 out ,in ,up ,down ,off ,here ,there 等,且主语为名词时,应用完全倒装。如:
In came the doctor. 医生进来了。
There goes the bell. 铃响了。
2. 当表示地点的介词短语位于句首,且主语为名词时,应用完全倒装。如:
On top of the hill stands a big pine tree.
山顶上耸立着一棵大松树。
Under the tree were some children.
树下有一些孩子。
3. 在 there be 结构中,there 为引导词,be 动词之后为句子的主语,属完全倒装,be 应与主语保持一致。除 be 以外,能与 there 连用的动词还有 seem ,exist ,happen ,appear ,live ,stand 等。如:
There were a lot of people in the park last Sunday.
上周日公园里有很多人。
Once there lived a king who was cruel to his people.
从前有一位对人民很残暴的国王。
4. 作表语的形容词、过去分词等较短,而主语相对比较长,为了保持句子平衡而将表语前置时,句子的主谓也应完全倒装。如:
Typical for China is the crosstalk show, in which two comedians entertain the audiences with words.
中国典型的艺术形式是相声,两名演员用言语来逗乐观众。
Gone are the days when we Chinese were looked down upon.
中国人民被歧视的日子已成为过去。
5. 某些表示祝愿的句子也可用完全倒装(或部分倒装)。如:
Long live the Chinese Communist Party of China!
中国***万岁!
May you succeed!
祝你成功!
二、部分倒装
部分倒装则是将助动词调到主语前,主语可以是名词也可以是代词。通常应使用部分倒装的情况有:
1. 当句首为否定或半否定词 never ,neither ,nor ,little ,seldom ,hardly ,scarcely ,in no way ,few , not ,no 等时,应用部分倒装。如:
Seldom does he spend his time playing cards.
他很少花时间去玩扑克。
Never have I heard of that place before.
我以前从未听说过那个地方。
2. only 修饰时间、地点、方式、原因等状语时,应用部分倒装。如:
Only in this way can we solve the problem.
只有这样,我们才能解决这个问题。
Only when you told me did I know her name.
直到你告诉我,我才知道她的名字。
注意:如果 only 修饰的不是状语,则句子不倒装。如:
Only Uncle Li knows how it happened.
只有李叔叔知道这件事是怎么发生的。
3. 表示对前者的陈述也适用后者时,肯定倒装用? so + 助动词/情态动词 + 后者?,否定倒装用? neither / nor + 助动词 / 情态动词 + 后者?。如:
He can speak English,so can I.
他会说英语,我也会。
If she doesn?t go there tomorrow,neither / nor will I.
如果她明天不去那儿,我也不去。
注意? so + 助动词 / 情态动词 + 主语?与? so + 主语 + 助动词 / 情态动词?的区别:
前者表示所说的主语和前面主语的情况一样,所谈到的是两个人或物,意为也是这样?;后者所谈为同一人或物,说话者表示同意前者的观点,意为?的确如此?。如:
? Li Lei likes sports. 李雷喜欢运动。
? So he does and so do I. 他的确喜欢,我也是的。
4. so 及? so + 形容词 / 副词?置于句首时,应用部分倒装。如:
So frightened was he that he didn?t dare move.
他如此惊慌以至不敢动弹。
So quietly did she speak that we could not hear a word.
她说话声音这么低,以至我们一个字也没听到。
5. such 及? such + 形容词 + 名词?置于句首时,应用部分倒装。如:
Such is Zhong Cheng, a kind and helpful student.
这就是仲成,一个善良、乐于助人的学生。
Such good players are they that they often win.
他们是好队员,所以他们经常获胜。
6. 由 not only ? but also ? 引起的并列句,若将 not only 置于句首时,该分句应部分倒装, but also 引导的分句不倒装。而由 neither ? nor ? 引起的并列句,两个分句都倒装。如:
Not only did he give me some advice,but also he lent me some money.
他不但给我提了建议,而且还借给了我一些钱。
Neither does he watch TV,nor does he see films in the evening.
他晚上既不看电视也不看**。
7. 由连接词 No sooner ? than ,Scarcely ? when ,Hardly ? when 引起的主从复合句,主句应倒装,从句不倒装。如:
No sooner had he gone to bed than he fell asleep.
他一上床就睡着了。
Hardly had I got into the classroom when it began to rain.
我刚一进教室天就下起雨来。
8. not until 引起的时间状语置于句首时,句子的主谓应部分倒装。由 not until 引导的时间状语从句位于句首时,主句应部分倒装,从句语序不变。如:
Not until 1998 did he return to his hometown.
直到 1998 年他才回到家乡。
Not until Father came back did we begin to have supper last night.
昨晚直到父亲回来,我们才开始吃晚饭。
注意:当 not until 引导的状语或状语从句用于强调句型时,句子的主语不倒装。如将上两句改为强调句应为:
It was not until 1998 that he returned to his hometown.
It was not until Father came back that we began to have supper last night.
9. 省略 if 的虚拟条件句,可将 were ,had ,should 提至主语前。如:
Were I you,I would go there tomorrow.
要是我是你,我明天就会去那儿。
Had you been there,you would have met the manager himself.
要是你去了那儿,你就会见到经理本人了。
10. 表示时间频率且有肯定意义的词语 often ,every day ,now and again 等置于句首用来强调时,应用部分倒装。如:
Often does he send me e-mails to greet me.
他经常给我发电子信件问候我。
三、主谓不倒装的倒装句
1. as / though 引起让步状语从句,可将表语或状语置于句首,但主谓不颠倒顺序。如:
Tired as / though he is,he is still working. 《高中英语语法-倒装用法归纳之一》由英语我整理,更多请访问: style="font-size: 18px;font-weight: bold;border-left: 4px solid #a10d00;margin: 10px 0px 15px 0px;padding: 10px 0 10px 20px;background: #f1dada;">2014广东英语高考答案

23. It seems that something is wrong with my computer._______ , I’d like to take it to the compliant desk immediately.
A. Otherwise B. If not C. But for that D. If so

25. Every day after supper, if not from homework, I will spend some time taking a walk with my friend.
A. being tired B. tiring C. tired D. to be tired

26. She must be helping her mother water the garden, ?
A. is she B. isn’t she C. must she D. mustn’t she
解析:答案B。本题考查反意疑问句。陈述句中的谓语中虽有情态动词must, 但此处must表示对正在进行的动作进行推测。而must后有助动词be, 故反意疑问句根据助动词be来构成, 选B。
27.—I wonder ______ you’ll water this kind of flower. —Every other day.
A. how often B. how long C. how soon D. how much
解析:答案A。相似疑问词的区别。根据答语Every other day可知对方问的是多久浇一次这种花。how often问频率, 符合题意。
28. It is that Prime Minister David Cameron(卡梅伦首相) blamed the worst riots(骚乱) in Britain the other day.
A. reported B. to report C. reporting D. being reported
解析:答案A。本句考查固定句型(it is +Ved +that从句)。
29.—What’s wrong with Mary?
—Well, her parents wouldn’t allow her to go out at night alone, but she still ________ .
A. hopes to B. hopes so C. hopes not D. hopes for
解析:答案A。本句考查固定搭配hope to do sth. 在不定式作简略回答时, 常常将不定式to之后的内容省略。
30. the website of China daily, and you will learn a lot from it.
A. Search B. To search C. Searching D. Having searched
解析:答案A。此题考查祈使句+and+简单句。祈使句+and+简单句, 相当于if引导的条件状语从句。
31.China has already sent up three spacecraft, the most recent at the end of last March.?
A. has been launched B. having been launched?
C. being launched D. to be launched
解析:答案B。此题考查独立主格结构。句中没有连接词, 故不能选作谓语动词的A项;the most recent having been launched为独立主格结构, 由at the end of last March可知应选用表示动作完成的B项。
32. Kate, here—everybody else, stay where you are.?
A. come B. comes C. to come D. coming
解析:答案A。本题考查了祈使句的用法。Kate和everybody else作为呼语出现, 后面的句子为祈使句, 省略了第二人称的主语you, 故应用动词原形。
33. I forgot to bring my ticket, but please let me enter the theatre, ?
A. do you B. can we? C. will you D. shall we
解析:答案C。此题考查祈使句的反意疑问句。祈使句的反意疑问句通常用will you, 意思是 “好吗,可以吗”。
34. It was when she got what she had wanted she realized it was not so necessary.?
A. that B. when C. since D. as
解析:答案A。此题考查强调句。强调句的结构是It is/was+被强调部分+that/who+句子的其余成分。强调句子的时间状语when she got what she had wanted。
35. China's railway system is said the brakes(高铁 “刹车”) these days.?
A. that it hits B. to hit? C. that it has hit D. to have hit
解析:答案D。句型sb. /sth. is said to+不定式。句型sb. /sth. is said to+不定式, 当不定式动作表示完成时, 不定式需用完成形式,因此选D项。
36. Water is to human beings oil is to machines.?
A. as B. that? C. what D. which
解析:答案C。此题考查固定句型“A is to B what C is to D”。句意为:水对于人类正如石油对于机器一样。
37.— I reminded you not to forget your homework.?— .?
A. So you did B. So I do not? C. So did you D. So do I
解析:答案A。本题考查 “so+助动词+主语”与 “so+主语+助动词”的意义区别。so+与前句相同的主语+助动词, 表示赞同, 意为 “确实”。
38. to cure the terrible disease, the patient turn to her doctor for help to end his life.
A. Having given hope? B. With no hope
C. There being hope? D. In the hope
解析:答案B。本题考查with结构(独立主格结构)。根据句意和结构, 显然其余三项不符合。
39. in sea trial(航母试航) that he decided to watch TV instead of doing his homework.
A. So interested the boy was? B. So interested was the boy?
C. How interested the boy was? D. The boy was such interested
解析:答案B。此题考查主谓一致和倒装结构。句意为:这个男孩对于航母试航是那样的感兴趣;以至于他决定去看电视而不做作业。so修饰的形容词或副词提到句首,句子用部分倒装。
40. After the initial exchange of fire(第一轮交火)near the Yeonpyeong island(延坪岛), there was no further response from the DRPK, ?
A. wasn’t there B. was there? C. didn’t it D. did it
解析:答案B。考查反意疑问句。因为陈述部分是肯定形式, 所以反意疑问部分用否定形式。
41. She has worked for more than 12 hours. she is tired out.?
A. It is no way B. There is no need?
C. It is no wonder D. There is no point
解析:答案C。本题考查固定句型。句意为:她已经工作了12个小时之多, 怪不得那么疲倦。It is no way. 没门;There is no need.不需要;There is no point. 没有意义。
42.—What can we do with this passage?— the main idea of each paragraph.
A. Finding out B. Found out? C. Find out D. To find out
解析:答案C。本题考查在具体语境中的省略。第二句补充完整应为You should find out the main idea of each paragraph。
43. Don’t be excited. things as they are and you will enjoy your own life.
A. Taking B. To take C. Take D. Taken
解析:答案C。考查“祈使句+and+简单句”句型。表示如果……就……。

2014年广东高考英语答案解析
I 语言知识及应用(共两节,满分45分)
第一节 完形填空(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
答案及解析: (“可乐”解释)
本文首先指出父母与十几岁的孩子之间存在矛盾冲突及其原因,然后是研究发现的不同父母对此采取的不同方法,有的方法较另一些方法更有效果,最后一段是心理学家对解决冲突的建议。
1. D 由not easy living with them (their parents) (孩子觉得与父母生活在一起不易)与difficult to live with teenagers(父母觉得与十几岁的孩子生活在一起很难)可知,孩子与父母有“相似的”感受。
(逻辑推断)
2. B 由前两句,可知父母之间有“矛盾”,再根据regarding untidiness and daily routine tasks(关于不整洁和日常事情),对照各选项,只有argument(争吵)适合。
(逻辑推断)
3. C 由前句的untidiness和后面的clothes thrown on the floor可知,房间是messy(凌乱不堪的)。
(逻辑推断;也可将untidiness与messy看作是近义复现)
4. B 由上文提到的收拾房间之类的事,应是housework(家务活)。
(上下义复现)
5. C 由后面的not cleaning up their room or refusing to do the shopping可知,这里应是dropping the towel in the bathroom,一起为blame them的原因。
(逻辑推断,或词语同现,受责备的应都是负面的意思)
6. A 由下句的However, some approaches提示,可知这里是指“不同的父母对待这些问题有不同的‘方法’”。
(原词复现)
7. D 从下面的例子可以看出,有的方法比别的方法更能“达到预期的目的(successful)”。
下文中的do better也有提示作用。
(逻辑推断)
8. A 指yell at their children(对孩子大声叫喊)之后,意为“但是‘后来’又为他们清扫房间”。
(逻辑推断)
9. A 改变孩子不爱整洁的“行为(behavior)”。
(逻辑推断)
10. C 据下文所举的例子“不帮父母去买东西”“在冰箱里就找不到自己最喜欢的饮料”可知,这是让孩子“感受到自己的行为产生的‘后果’”。
(逻辑推断)
11. D 在有了上述经历之后,他们就会“重新考虑”他们的行动。
(逻辑推断)
12. A 由下文中的munication is a two-way process可知,此处填munication。
事实上,当完成第13空后,就基本上确定此题选A了。
(原词复现)
13. D 由but可知,要选与lend an ear to(=listen to倾听)相对的talk。
(词语同现;逻辑推断)
14. B 由but可知,要选与understand (理解)相对的scold(责骂)。
(词语同现;逻辑推断)
15. C 此句是强调结构,是对前两句的总结,一句是说要lend an ear to(=listen to倾听),一句是说要understand (倾听),所以总结为“只有通过倾听和相互理解,父母与孩子之间的问题才可得到解决”。
(原词复现)
第二节 语法填空(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)
本文是讲我和我兄弟去Miami(迈阿密)旅游,当到达目的地后,来到六个月前订的宾馆,却意外被告知订的房间是下个星期的,且该宾馆房间已订满。
正当不知如何办时,经理出来了,将他们安排在留出来的VIP房间,且不另外收他们的钱,这真是个意外的意外。
16. it 在said后的宾语从句中缺主语,应填代词;指代前句中的Miami这个地方,应用it。
17. earlier 在句中作状语,依然用副词;不变词性,可考虑用比较级;由时态had made,可知是“早在六个月前”就订好了。
18. were told 由句意或tell *** . sth.这一句型结构可知,是“我们被告知”,由上下文的时态可知,用一般过去时的被动语态。
19. but 这是考虑not…but…结构,意为“不是为那个星期订的,而是为后一个星期所订的”。
20. why 意为“我不知道为什么会发生这样的事”,故用why引导宾语从句。
21. for 因charge…for…是习惯搭配。
22. surprisingly 因本句已有作表语的形容词helpful,所以应当用副词来修饰形容词helpful,指“令人惊讶地,意外的”,故填surprisingly。
23. the 特指“在顶楼”。
24. where 先行词是地点the beach且在定语从句中作状语,故填where (=on which =and on the beach =and there)。
25. sunburnt 在表示“变化”的got后作表语,要用形容词;sunburn是名词。
Ⅱ 阅读(共两节,满分50分)
第一节 阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
答案及解析:
本文是记叙文,介绍有音乐天才的Samuel O *** ond。
26. D 细节理解题。
由第一段中的However, he can play very difficult musical pieces by musicians such as Chopin and Beethoven just a few minutes after he hears them可知选D。
顺便提醒,有however或but的地方往往是出题的地方,可以注意哟。
27. B 细节理解题。
由第二段最后两句 “Samuel wanted to bee a lawyer as it was the wish of his parents,but music teachers told him he should study music instead. Now, he studies law and music”可知选B,Samuel按照父母的意愿是想做律师的,而不是做音乐家。
因按父母的意愿是学法律,按老师的建议学音乐,故D错。
28. C 综合细节题。
由第三段最一句Samuel can’t understand why everyone is so surprised和第三四句 “I suddenly decided to start playing the piano, without being able to read music and without having any lessons. It es easily to me ---I hear the notes and can bear them in mind---each and every note”可知,他不用看音符就能演奏钢琴,故选C。
29. B 推断隐含意义。
由第四段最后一句Samuel says confidently, “It’s all about super memory---I guess I have that gift.”可推出。
30. B 选择标题题。
也属主旨要义题。
每段都有Samuel,全文都是说学法津的Samuel有音乐天才。
答案及解析:
31. B 细节推断题。
第一段说Natalie Smith 为其后面的六辆车交费,第二段交等了其中的原因,是她看到的 “Practice random kindness and senseless acts of beauty”这句话给了她深刻印象,由此推断,她是受这句话的启发,“想给他人施恩”,故选B。
32. A 细节理解题。
由第三段第三句“I thought it was beautiful,” she said, explaining why she’d taken to writing it at the bottom of all her letters可知,选A。
选项B文中无信息支持,无中生有;选项C“决定将其写在仓库墙上”与文中“看到离家很远的一个仓库墙上看到这句话”意义不同,张冠李戴;虽然文中有她老公将其写在教室的墙上,但并不是她要他写的,更不是她抄写这句话的目的,与事实不符。
33. D 细节理解题。
本题是问“谁想出这句话来的”,由第四段中的 “It was in a restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper”可知,是Anne Herbert想出这句话来的。
可用排除法,Natalie Smith是在朋友的冰霜上看到的,Judy Foreman是在仓库的墙上抄下来的,Alice Johnson是从她女儿那得知的,她女儿是因为Judy Foreman的老公将此句写在教室的墙上而得知的,故不是这三个人想出来的。
34. C 推断句子意义。
推断词、短语或句子意思,需结合上下文去理解。
本段中先是Anne Herbert解释她想出的那句话意为:你认为(生活中或世界上)应该多一些存在的事,那么你就随意去做这样的事。
接说着她想象中的这类事包括“给破旧教室粉墙”“在穷人区的厨房里留下热饭”等善举。
那么该段结尾的话“善举和暴力一样可以在它们自己的基础上建立起来”,其真正的含义是什么呢?再看看接下来这一段,特别是第一句“随意的善举是可以传播或蔓延”,可知“善举同暴力一样是可以自我繁衍的”,故选C。
35. B 推理判断题。
由最后一段的第一和第二句可以推知:受到恩惠的人很可能会施惠于他人,将恩惠传播下去。
答案及解析:
本文作者叙述的是自己申请叫做灯塔计划的志愿者工作的过程和被选作志愿者后去阿布加附近的一个小村庄工作的经历,这段经历让作者学到了许多,改变了人生。
36. A 细节理解题。
由第一段第二句 “My degree, with honors, in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical”可知,作者的大学教育注重的是理解知识,选A。
37. A 推理判断题。
由第二段最后一句In short, I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly. Neither did my family(总之,我并不是轻易决定申请灯塔计划的,我的家人也一样不是轻易决定的)和第三段首句Eventually, however, I won the support of my family(然而,最后我赢得了家人的赞同)可以推断出,作者是同家人讨论商量过的。
38. D 推理判断题。
由第二段的第二句 “After countless interviews and presentations, I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone”可推知,作者面临了与其他候选人的激烈竞争。
选项A“参加了许多讨论”,文中无信息支持,是无中生有,应排除;选项B“经历了富有挑战性的生存测试”,特别是由survival可知,编题者利用了文中的只言片语(survive, test),编造与文中不符的信息,迷惑考生,应排除;选项C“写了相当多的有关志愿者工作的论文”与文中“sent in all the paperwork needed for the application(呈送申请所需要的文书)”不符,应排除。
故选D。
39. C 细节理解题。
由第四段Though the local villagers were poor, they offered their homes, hearts, and food as if I were their own family可知,一到达这个村庄时,他受到村民的热情接待,故选C。
文中信息具体,正确选项是对其概括。
40. A 推理判断题。
由最后一段第一句all those things that had seemed so strange or unusual to me no longer did(他当初觉得奇怪或不寻常的所有事现在都不再觉得奇怪了)可推断,已适应了,但当初不适应时要适应这些,是有困难的,故选A。
答案及解析:
本文是说明文,介绍了一种研究洋流的特别方式。
41. B 词义猜测题。
由前面的so many shoes和后面的to try and match left and right shoes to sell or wear,特别是sell,可知是建立交易市场,故选B。
42. C 细节理解题。
由第二段二、三、四句 “He phoned the shoe pany and asked if they wanted the shoes back. As expected, the pany told him that they didn't. Ebbe *** eyer realized this could be a great experiment”可知,选C。
43. A 细节理解题。
由第三段第二句Ebbe *** eyer got to know a lot of them (serious beachbers) and asked for their help in collecting information about where the shoes landed及其后几句可知,选A,“通过海滩清理者收集信息”。
44. D 细节理解题。
由第四段第一句Ebbe *** eyer has bee known as the scientist to call with questions about any unusual objects found floating in the ocean可知,选D。
45. C 写作目的题,也属主旨大意题。
文章主题句在第一段,即However, ocean expert Curtis Ebbe *** eyer does it in a special way---by studying movements of random floating garbage,由此可知选C。

参考范文:
Version 1:
Oseola McCarty was a laundrywoman for more than 75 years. She earned a few dollars each time. But she donated $150,000 which was her life savings to help the students who needed financial help.
I think her behavior is worth praising and very unselfish. Everyone should help others in need. But how much to donate should be based on our actual situation. The $150,000 is very helpful to the students who have financial problems. They can buy many things they need as other students. And they may be more grateful and kinder. Therefore, it’s more likely for them to help others in the future.
If I am going to give donations, I will choose students too. They are in the most important period in their life. They need to get a long education. They have to buy a lot of books, pencil-cases, pens, erasers and so on, which will certainly cost a lot. They are growing up rapidly, which needs a lot of nutrition. If they don’t have enough money, they can’t eat enough food and take in enough energy. In a word, money is very important to students.

解析2014山东高考写作一改沿用多年的书信形式,以英语中常见谚语“患难见真情”和“有志者,事竟成”作为话题二选一进行夹叙夹议,在近五年高考中实属大刀阔斧改革的一大步。考生首先要了 解两句谚语的基本意思,其次要用短短150词将说明+记叙+议论结合起来,衔接流畅,有理有据,确实对考生的英语知识素养,思维能力和表达能力有着很高的要求。创新固然有之,但究其内容,仍然是“新瓶装旧酒”。在我们二轮复习中,给大家详细讲解过了“个人价值观念”话题素材和常用的写作句型, 谚语的意思在语法课上也作为例句多次提及。考生在保证了 “说明含义-回忆往事-总结议论”这一基本的逻辑分段清晰之后,只需结合“价值观“中的素材,非限制性定语从句、使让、非谓语动词、无灵主语、倒装、强调等常用句型,以及一些常见写作词汇的高 级替换,就可以轻松的冲击高分档次。 逻辑分段 解释谚语意思(20词) 记叙个人经历(80词) 议论升华主旨(50词)
例文 Where there is a will, there is a way. My favorite proverb is “where there is a will, there is a way.”, which means we will be able to get over all kinds of challenges if we can stick to our dreams and never give up. Memories rushed to my mind when I saw this topic. When I was in high school, I had great enthusiasm for English and intended to take part in an English speech contest. However, when preparing for it, I found it very challenging to collect information and use language correctly. I was about to give up when my Dad noticed and offered this proverb to me. Encouraged by it, I spared no effort to solve every problem with confidence. If it hadn’t helped me,I couldn’t have won the prize finally. In a word, not only does this proverb enable me to face up to the difficulties bravely, but also it contributes much to keeping confident all the time. Therefore, keep in mind--- where there is a will, there is a way. Success comes to those who never give up.
