【高分句型一】
1.In Picture 1,a man is trying to put up a banner on a lonely tree surrounded by stumps,but in vain,while Picture 2 shows a couple happily planting trees.
     此处是由连词"while"引导的状语从句,意为"虽然,尽管"主句为"a man is trying to put up a banner on a lonely tree surrounded by stumps,but in vain".
【高分句型二】
2.The message conveyed here is clear:"Actions speak louder than words."
此处是由过去分词作名词"message"的后置定语,可以理解为定语从句"The message which/that is conveyed here is clear".
【高分句型三】
3.Instead of shouting empty slogans,it is more meaningful to donate books and sports goods to children in need.
此处是"It+is+adj+to do sth"句型,"it"是形式主语.

4.We should strictly and voluntarily follow traffic rules,stopping at the red light rather than complaining about traffic jams.
   此处是现在分词作伴随状语,主句为"We should strictly and voluntarily follow traffic rules",主句的主语为"we"与所给动词"stop"和"complain"存在逻辑上的主动关系.
【高分句型五】
1.Only when we match our words with actions can we make a difference in whatever we hope to accomplish.
此处是部分倒装结构,结构为"Only+【状语成分:介词短语/when、if引导的从句/时间副词】+一般疑问句形式".

解答 Actions Speak Louder than Words
People celebrate Earth Day differently.In Picture 1,a man is trying to put up a banner on a lonely tree surrounded by stumps,but in vain,while Picture 2 shows a couple happily planting trees.【高分句型一】(图画描述)
The message conveyed here is clear:"Actions speak louder than words."【高分句型二】Our earth is suffering severe damage.Should we just pay lip service or take practical measures to protect it?The answer is definitely the latter.Immediate actions should be taken,like stopping cutting down trees,to better the environment.(理解)
Actions are important in other fields,too.Instead of shouting empty slogans,it is more meaningful to donate books and sports goods to children in need.【高分句型三】We should strictly and voluntarily follow traffic rules,stopping at the red light rather than complaining about traffic jams.【高分句型四】Only when we match our words with actions can we make a difference in whatever we hope to accomplish.【高分句型五】(启示)

点评 看图作文要求将画面所包含的有效信息用文字表达出来,并适当拓展并发挥想象.如果是记叙文类的素材,要注意故事的时间、地点、人物、事件的起因、过程、结果这六个要素;如果是说明文或议论文,首先要对图画的内容进行描述,然后围绕图画的信息进行说明或议论.写作时注意准确运用时态,上下文意思连贯,尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式,同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有档次.

1.It is six o'clock in the morning.You are asleep in my left arm and I am learning the art of one-handed typing.Your mother,more tired yet more happy than I've ever known her,is sound asleep in the room next door.
When you're older we'll tell you that you were born in Hong Kong in the lunar year of the pig."It's a boy,so lucky,"our neighbours told us.They said you were the first baby to be born in the block this year.This,they told us,was good Feng Shui,in other words,a positive sign.Naturally your mother and I were only too happy to believe that.
Your coming has turned me upside down and inside out.I am pained by the memory of each suffering child I have come across on my journeys as a journalist.To tell you the truth,it's nearly too much for me to even think of the children being hurt and abused and killed.
Last October,in Afghanistan,when you were growing inside your mother,I met Sharja,aged twelve,motherless,fatherless,guiding me through the grey ruins of her home.Everything was gone,she told me.

Daniel,these memories explain some of the protectiveness I feel for you,and the occasional moments of blind terror when I imagine anything bad happening to you.

2."Luck is a matter of preparation meeting opportunity,"said the American talk show host Oprah Winfrey.I've never watched her show,but when a self-made billionaire gives life advice it's probably worth listening to.
Her point is that blind luck is very rare.You may have to be lucky to find a good job these days but that does not mean you should sit at home waiting for the opportunity to come to you.If you're a Chinese,you may already be familiar with the tale of a farmer waiting by a tree stump (树桩) for a rabbit to run out and break its neck.
A book by the UK psychologist Richard Wiseman,called The Luck Factor,argues we can all make ourselves luckier.It's not about going to a temple to burn some incense (香) in hopes that the gods will give you good fortune; it's practical advice you can follow each day.
Wiseman conducted an experiment as part of his studies.First he divided volunteers into two groups:those who said they were lucky in life and those who said they were not.He gave everyone a newspaper and asked them to look through it to count how many photographs it had inside.On average,the unlucky people took about two minutes to count the photographs while the lucky people took just seconds.Why?On the second page of the newspaper,a command,"Stop counting.There are 43 photographs in this newspaper,"was written in big letters.The unlucky people mostly did not spot the message.
It's easy to compare this situation to a young person looking for jobs in a local paper.They might search so hard for one type of position that they miss an even better opportunity.People who are"lucky",in fact,keep an open mind and don't go through the same routine every day.
I first came to China in 2002 when it was considered a rather strange thing to do.Like many foreigners,my plan was to teach English for one year.Seven years later,and still here,I've had many great opportunities such as writing for newspapers and magazines.I did not dream these would have been possible.I've also never been sick,had an accident,got into a fight or had problems with the police.Coincidence?After reading about Professor Wiseman's studies I think not.
As Wiseman advises,I usually trust my own judgment.Your friends and parents may give you advice based on rational thinking,but it's important to consider how you feel about each choice you make.Your feeling acts as a warning for a potential problem.
Finally,try to turn bad luck into good.Even if you do fall down and break a leg,the time spent at home can be used wisely to study English.

17.When University of California-Berkeley released a study this month showing alarmingly high teacher turnover (人员流动) rates at Los Angeles charter (特许) schools,I wasn‘t surprised.
That's not shocking news at local charter schools.It‘s just that the study reminded me of something I'd observed many times,starting with my niece.
Bright and cheerful,my niece longed to teach high-needs children.She started out in the San Francisco public schools,where she was assigned to the district‘s toughest elementary school.Fifth-graders threw chairs across the room-and at her.Parents refused to show up for conferences.
She wasn't willing to deal with this level of indifference and teacher abuse,so she switched to a highly regarded charter elementary school in the Bay Area where she poured her energy into her job and it showed.Her students‘test scores were as high as those in a nearby wealthy school district,despite the obstacles these children faced.
By her fourth year,however,my niece was worn out,running out of the energy it took to work with a classroom of sweet but deeply needy children who begged to stay in her classroom when it was time to leave.The principal‘s offer of a $10,000raise couldn‘t stop her from giving notice.She went to work at that wealthy school district next door-for less money.
Over the years,I've met many teachers who have a passion for their work at charter schools,only to call them the next year and find they‘ve left.The authors of the Berkeley study hold the belief that the teachers leave because of the extraordinary demands:long hours,intense involvement in students complicated lives,continual searches for new ways to raise scores.Even the strongest supporters of the reform movement acknowledge that raising achievement among disadvantaged students is the most challenging task.
It‘s unlikely that we can build large-scale school reform on a platform of continual new demands on teachers-more time,more energy,more devotion,more responsibility-even if schools find ways to pay them better.
This is the bigger challenge facing schools.We need a more useful answer to the Berkeley study than-Yeah,its really hard work.

50.Why wasn‘t the author surprised at the problem?C
A.She had been informed of the problem by her niece.
B.She had participated in the Berkeley study.
C.She had noticed the phenomenon repeatedly.
D.She had been warned of the problem by the media.
51.What can we learn about the students in the public school the author‘s niece taught?B
A.They were clever and cheerful.
B.They were not disciplined.
C.They were indifferent to each other.
D.They were forced to learn by their parents.
52.The author‘s niece left the charter elementary school in the Bay Area becauseC.
A.her hard work and devotion didn‘t pay off
B.her work was not well received by the children
C.the demanding work made her exhausted
D.the mean principle offered her a low salary
53.Which of the following is probably the most difficult for teachers?A
A.Raising disadvantaged students‘scores.
B.Frequent involvement in students‘lives.
C.Indifference from students‘parents.
D.Long working time and much energy.
54.What is the author's comment on the current school reform movement?B
A.It will have a positive impact on education.
B.It tends to be unsuccessful.
C.It will make teachers more motivated.
D.It demands more fund to meet the challenge.
