题目内容

We're always looking for well?written reviews of books， music， movies， television shows， websites， video games and other products. When writing a review， concentrate on exactly what you liked or didn't like. Give examples of strengths and weaknesses，be descriptive and provide background information on an author，director，actor or musician，if possible. Find professional reviews in magazines or newspapers and see how reviewers deal with their topics，but be sure to express your own voice in your review.

Grammar Hint for Reviews：When describing a book，movie， album or anything else，use the present tense.

Book Reviews

Discuss an author's technique，strengths and weaknesses instead of focusing on the plot. Does the story flow？ Is there a strong sense of character and place？Did you stay up until dawn to finish it？Is it good reading for teenagers？What influence did it have on you and why？If you've read other books by the same author， discuss how this book compares.

Movie Reviews

Think of the major Oscar categories and consider the performances， music， lighting and setting， etc. Do these work together？ Did some hold up while others didn't？ If the movie is based on a book， discuss whether one is better than the other and why. If the movie is a remake， compare the film to its original.

Remember that a well?written movie review should discuss strengths and weaknesses. Some readers may not have seen a movie yet， so don't give away an exciting scene or the ending！

College Reviews

Begin by providing an overview of the college，including location，size and a description of the campus and/or dorm life. Think about all aspects of your college visit. What academic，athletic and after?class programs are available？ What are the students like？ What makes the college different from others？ Every school has strengths and weaknesses. Be objective. Consider what the school has to offer and who might enjoy or benefit the most from attending there.

1. When writing a review， you .

Not everyone in the world requires the same amount of living space. The amount of space a person needs around him is a cultural difference, not an economic one. Knowing your own psychological space needs is important because they strongly affect your choices, including, for example, the number of bedrooms in the home. If you were brought up in a two-child family and both you and your sister or brother had your own bedrooms, the chances are, if you have two children or more, that you also will offer separate bedrooms for them. In America, for example, they train people to want to have their own rooms by giving them their own rooms when they are babies. This is very rare in the world. In many other countries, the baby sleeps in the same bed with his parents or in bed near them.

The space in the home also shows a lot about psychological space needs. Some families gather closer to each other and the size of their house has nothing to do with it. Others have separate little corners where family members go to bed alone.

Although it is true that psychological space needs are not decided by economic reasons, they sometimes have to be changed a little because of economic pressures. It is almost impossible, however, to completely change your psychological space needs.

1. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 means " ______ ".

A. No two people need exactly the same amount of living space

B. The requirements of living space are not always the same

C. The world requires the same amount of living space

D. Nobody needs a required amount of living space

2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Americans are trained to live in large rooms at birth.

B. Economic situation decides one's amount of space needs.

C. People in various countries demand different psychological space.

D. Knowing your psychological space needs is important, as it affects your future.

3.The best title for this passage is ______.

A. American Way of Living

B. Psychological Space

C. Space Needs in Different Countries

D. Psychological Space and Economic Pressure

Every day, in hundreds of ordinary situations, actions speak far louder than words. We talk with our mouth, but we communicate with our facial expressions, our tone of voice and our whole body.

1. When we can read what others are saying unconsciously, we can deal with things---- at work and at home before they become problems.

By understanding how to use body language, you can communicate more effectively. Here is how:

2. Throughout the day, notice details about the way you speak, gesture and move. When standing, keep your shoulders straight, your body open and your weight balanced on both feet.

Work on your handshake. 3. The handshake most likely to show confidence is firm and dry with strong but not too much pressure.

Use eye contact. Eye contact is very important in forming an impression of someone. You should have the ability to keep direct eye contact if you want to be taken seriously. But some people feel uncomfortable when it is too strong. 4.

Be yourself. Nonverbal(非言语的) messages come from deep inside you, from you own sense of self-respect. If you are comfortable with yourself, they show. 5. They always give others a deep impression.

A. Use hand gestures carefully.

I was living a life in my screen and hardly noticed what was around me. So when my friends invited me to go camping for a long weekend without the cell service, I thought this was exactly what I needed. Here’s how keeping away from my phone for 48 hours changed me.

I realized my bedtime routine was usually centered on one thing: my phone. Right before I went to sleep, I browsed through news websites and checked my emails. When I woke up in the middle of the night, I did the same thing. The problem with this was I felt anxious every night. I felt free without my phone at that weekend camp. I felt asleep listening to the sound of crickets.

When I had my phone, I was always checking the time and thinking of future plans. My thought was: “Who’s going to text me now? What will I do next?” Without my phone, I truly savored what I was doing in the moment, sitting by the river, riding a bike, or singing the old songs. There was no need to rush through any of it. I listened to what my body wanted instead of what my phone was telling me to do.

You know that moment when you’re hanging out with a group of people and no one has anything to say? The typical response: Everyone immediately pulls out their phones. So what did we do without a phone to avoid embarrassing silences? We actually talked to each other. Instead of burying our faces in our screens, we looked one another in the eye, had a moment of pure human connection and then continued talking. And you know what? People actually listened.

So, now what? Now I’m back to the real world.

1.When the author’s friends invited him to go camping, he .

A. didn’t really want to go

B. wanted to take his cellphone

C. didn’t think life would be any different

2.What change did the author experience according to Paragraph 2?

A. He broke his bedtime routine.

B. He no longer cared about news.

C. He fell in love with sounds of nature.

D. He began to pay attention to his future plans.

3.The underlined word “savored” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by “ ”.

A. ignored B. recorded C. enjoyed D. remembered

4.At that weekend camp, the campers .

A. often felt very lonely

B. found some other fun activities

C. got into good conversation with each other

D. often needed to deal with embarrassing silences

“Happiness Shared” was title of an e-mail I received from a website that I really enjoyed. It inspired me to contacting two friends and invite him over for a craft day. I was excited about sharing craft ideas and baking cookies with friend! Then one friend sent me a message saying that she was depressing and thought she should not come, so she would only bring us down. I sent her a quote what inspires me when I’m upset. It is, “Think about how you want to feel and do whatever it takes to make it to happen.” Finally, she comes and we had a great day. It is so nicely to have someone to share your day with!
