1、We know that many animals do not stay in one place．Birds, fish and other animals move from one place to another at a certain time．They move for different reasons: most of them move to find food more easily, but others move to get away from places that are too crowded．

When cold weather comes, many birds move to warmer places to find food．Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed．The most famous migration (迁移) is probably the migration of fish, which is called “salmon”．This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water．There it spends its life．When it is old, it returns to its birthplace in fresh water．Then it gives birth and dies．In northern Europe, there is a kind of mouse．They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded．They move down to the low land．Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside, and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea．

Recently (近来), scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobster (龙虾)．Every year, when the season of the bad weather arrives, the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean．Nobody knows why they do this, and nobody knows where they go．So, sometimes we know why humans and animals move from on e place to another, but at other times we don’t．Maybe living things just like to travel．

2、A soap opera called “Tiger Mother and Cat Father” is popular in China now. The tiger mother is pretty strict with her daughter and the little girl is not allowed to watch TV or play computer games. On the other hand, she makes all efforts to buy the expensive house near the key school, in order to let her daughter have a better education. However, the cat father has an opposite view of how to raise their child. He gives her daughter more independence and doesn’t make many rules for her. Which one is better, “ Tiger Mother”or “Cat Father”?

In China, it seems that in each family, there is tiger mother and a cat father, even worse, some families have two tigers. C hildren can’t decide anything for themselves. What’s worse, Chinese mothers believe key school will bring a better future to their children. This soap opera fully shows us a common problem in China. And maybe it is the real reason why such kind of TV shows can get popular.

Whether the tiger mother or the cat father, respecting(尊重)children and growing together are the keys to family education.

15、Teenager Jake Deham was skiing(滑雪) with his family in the USA when he fell

over and lost one of his skis. His fami ly didn’t know that he had a problem. They kept on skiing. When they got to the foot of the mountain, there was no sign of Jake.

Jake couldn’t find his ski anywhere. In the end, he decided to take off his other ski and walk down the mountain. But he co uldn’t work out the right way to go.

It was now getting dark and he was a long way from any place of safety. He knew that he might die that night in the cold temperatures. But Jake kept calm(镇定). At home, Jake watched a lot of programmes about living in difficult situations. He remembered the advice from these programmes and knew that he should build a hole in the snow. He made a hole and pointed it up the hill so the wind couldn’t blow into it. Outside his hole, the temperature fell to a dangerous-15℃ that night, but inside it Jake was safe from the cold.

But he had to get down the mountain. The TV programmes always said,“ If you are lost, you should find someone else’ s tracks(足迹) through the snow and follow them.” “I wanted to live my life.” remembers Jake.“So I got up and I found some ski tracks and I followed those.” He walked and walked and finally he saw lights. Nine hours after he lost his ski, he found a team of worker who came to save him. He was safe!

His mum was very happy when she hea rd the news. Amazingly, Jake didn’t even have to go to hospital. He got through the terrible experience without any injuries. So, the next time someone says that watching TV is a waste of time, think of Jake. Sometimes TV can save your life!

公务员面试题型：社会现象类题梳理

社会现象类题目题整理 一、社会现象类通常也叫分析题：通常给一个社会现象，问你怎么看？通常包含几种题型： 1、消极的，不好的社会现象； 2、出发点是好的，但是做法欠妥当； 3、看起来是好的，但实际是不好的； 4、好的，怎样做才能更好； 每种题型都有相对应的思维方式，思考方法 1、消极的，不好的社会现象（思维方式） 影响一一原因一一对策 总的思维：所谓消极的不好的社会现象，肯定有不好的影响（列举一下），那么是什么原因造成的呢（列举一下），好友有原因了能不能通过相应的对策来避免这种现象发生呢。 思维大家都有，怎么答才能更加饱满有亮点呢，这里就需要避免套路化，要答实，就是 贴切题目，用一些实在的做法来填满它，而不是用几句什么题目都能套的话来答题。 影响：这里可以稍微列举三个左右的危害，但是不要多，可以从小到大来进行说明，女口: 不利于人的身体健康，不利于健康中国的发展等。 原因：这里通常也需要分析三点原因，可以用主题分析法，看看这件事涉及的主体都有哪些，这些主体都存在什么问题而导致不良社会现象的发生。 比如：网络游戏不尊重历史的现象涉及的主体一游戏的开发运营商，政府的监管审核部门，媒体平台，观众玩家。这里就体现了实，这里说观众玩家，可定比市民群众好，更贴切问题。 对策：对策也是重点，根据原因提对策，一一对应，但是为了答题更饱满，一般是对策+具体做法 比如： 1、完善食品安全方面的法律法规，应以立法部门牵头，政府企业社会团体协同参与，共同提出建议和诉求，进一步完善法律，让不良企业无法律空子可钻法。 2、加强行业自律，行业协会应从幕后走向台前，立规矩，讲规矩，守规矩。积极实行行业内部奖惩制度，对于合格企业给予适当的奖励，对于不合格的企业，给予通报批评，并配合政府部门进行处罚。通过这种正负激励，行业的自我约束，实现良性竞争。 2、出发点是好的，但是做法欠妥当； 直接表明出发点是好的，怎么好，但是做法欠妥当一一分析做法欠妥的原因一一怎么才能解决根本问题。 ⑴、直接表明出发点是好的，怎么好，但是做法欠妥当，女口：开始答题，题目的做法 出发点是好的，是想解决***问题，但是做法欠妥当。 ⑵、分析做法欠妥的原因，会带来什么不好的影响，不能解决根本问题。 ⑶、提出能解决根本问题的对策（同样这里的对策也要加具体做法） 女口：加大宣传力度，可以通过报纸，电视，微信微博宣传***内容，广而告之，扩大影响。 产业结构转型升级，淘汰落后产能，由以往的资源密集型和劳动密集型向技术密集型 和知识密集型转变，大力发展服务业，生态农业和旅游业，这样既发展了经济又保护了环境。

初中英语阅读理解练习题1

Passage 1 When Christopher Columbus landed on the then unnamed Costa Rica in 1502, he saw many Indians wearing gold earrings. So he thought the land must be rich in gold. He named the place Costa Rica, which means “rich coast” in Spanish. Though little gold was found, Costa Rica today is indeed rich with coffee and bananas. Coffee is the most important product in Costa Rica and most of it is exported (出口) to other countries like America and West Germany. Bananas are the country’s second most important export. Costa Ricans also grow many other crops such as fruits, corn and beans for their own use. Costa Ricans love colors and their houses are painted in bright colors. Education is very important to the Costa Ricans. Almost every village has a school and education is a must for children between seven and fourteen years of age. Boys and girls go to separate (单独的) schools. Classes begin in March and end in November. The other three months of the year are harvest time and the children have to help their parents to pick coffee beans. 1. What’s the main idea of the first paragraph? A. How Columbus found Costa Rica. B. How Costa Rica got its name. C. What the Costa Ricans wore. D. What language the Costa Ricans spoke. 2. The Costa Ricans may NOT paint their houses ______.

Many people on the island had a disease called beri?鄄beri. He was going there to try and find a cure. At first, Eijkman thought some kind of germ (细菌) caused beri-beri. He raised some chickens. He didn’t eat them, but made experiments on them. The local people were quite surprised at that. One day he noticed that his chickens became sick when they were fed the food most Javanese ate —refined white rice (精炼米). When he fed them with unrefined rice, also known as brown rice, they recovered. Eijkman realized that he had made an important discovery —that some things in food could prevent disease. These things were named vitamins (维生素). The Javanese were not getting enough vitamins because they had actually removed the part that contains vitamins. Later, other diseases were also found to be caused by the lack of vitamins in a person’s food. Today many people know the importance of vitamins and they make sure they have enough vitamins from the food they eat. If they don’t, they can also take vitamin pills. 6. The underlined word “cure” in Paragragh 1 probably means ______. A. a medical treatment B. a kind of vitamin C. a kind of germ D. a kind of rice 7. Christian Eijkman went to the island of Java to ______. A. spend his holiday B. find ways to grow better crops C. do some research about the island D. h8lp the Javanese with their illness 8.

2015内蒙古公务员面试技巧：如何答好积极类社会现象题

2015内蒙古公务员面试技巧：如何答好积极类社会现象题如果说笔试是千军万马过独木桥的混战，那么大家即将要面临的内蒙古公务员面试则是与考官一对一的精英选拨。要想在这场精英赛中胜出就必须掌握其中必胜的法宝。中公教育专家研究近几年的面试题目，发现积极类的社会现象题已经成为了常考题。因此掌握此类题型的解法就成为了我们必须掌握的一项技能。现在就通过一道题目和大家一同分享回答积极类社会现象题的思路和技巧。 例如：昆明要建设泛亚文化名城，就此谈谈你的看法。 看到题目后首先要明确的是这是一个社会现象，考察的是我们的综合分析能力，因此我们将按照提出观点、论证观点、落实观点这三个步骤来进行；其次，题目反映的社会现象是积极的，所以在提出观点时采用的是综合归类法，论证观点论证的是其背景和积极意义，而落实观点则是通过六大手段来使这一好的现象得以推广。下面中公教育专家将分步骤举例说明各个步骤该如何使用。 第一是提出观点，运用综合归类法，所谓的综合归类就是将题目中与之相类似的现象类比，而后找到它们的共同点，这个共同点就是我们所需要的本质。例如如果题目中出现毒奶粉，你能找到的与之类似的事件就会有地沟油、注水猪肉等，而这些事件的共同点就是食品安全问题，同样的，将这个方法运用在我们的例题中，与昆明建设泛亚文化名城相类似的，就有南京、杭州建立历史文化名城，其共同点是通过提升文化这一软实力达到扩大影响力从而改善民生的目的，这就是这道题的本质。 第二是论证观点，对于积极类的社会现象来说，论证观点主要是从背景和积极意义来入手。积极意义大家很好理解，而背景，大家则会觉得这个概念太宏观，不好入手，那么当我们把这个大概念分割为几个小概念，就很好回答了。背景一般指代三个部分：一是政策法规，二是社会表现，三是公序良俗。例如我国提出可以生二胎这一政策，其政策法规背景就是80年代末的独生子女政策；因为有着对生育孩子数量的限制，所以才会有目前的对独生子女政策的放宽；其社会现象的背景是中国未富先老，进入了老龄化社会，养老成为了困扰大家的难题；其二是男女比例的失调；其三则是劳动力的紧张；这就是社会现象的背景。其公序良俗的背景则体现出这一政策对生命的尊重。这就是背景的分析方法。现在我们将这一方法运用在例题中，首先是政策法规：昆明于国内位于中国西南，对于建设响应了西部大开发战略，于国外与老挝、越南、泰国等多国接壤，处于南亚、东南亚的桥头堡战略位置。于整体建设的方向是文化，响应了十八大报告中对文化的重视。于社会现象则是发扬了昆明所特有的民族文化，于公序良俗则是对传统文化的传承。而这一事件带来的积极意义则是扩大了中国文化对世界各地的影响力。 第三是落实观点，对于这一步骤我们直接使用六大手段即可。

(完整版)初中英语阅读理解练习题

初中英语阅读理解练习题 A friend of mine was fond of drawing horse. He drew the horses very well,but he always began the tail. Now it is the Western rule to begin at the head of the horse, that is why I was surprised. It struck me that it could not really make any difference whether the artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly（肚子）or the foot of the horse, if he really knows his business. And most great artists who really know their business do not follow other people’s rule.They make their own rules. Every one of them does his work in a way peculiar(奇特的) to himself; and the peculiarity means only that he finds it more easy to work in that way. Now the very same thing is true to literature(文学). And the question, "How shall I begin?" only means that you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail or somewhere else. That is, you are not yet experienced(有经验的) enough to trust to your own powers. When you become more experienced you will never ask the question, and I think that you will often begin at the tail --that is to say, you will write the end of the story before you have even thought of the beginning. 1. A friend of the writer’s drew the horses ____. A. very well B. in the way of western rule C. in the way of his own rule D. all of the above 2. The writer was surprised because ____. A. the artist began to draw at the head of the horse B. the artist began to draw at the tail of the horse C. the artist made his own rule D. the artist did not follow other people’s rule 3. You are not yet experienced because ____. A. you don’t know where to begin B. you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail

2020国考面试社会现象题如何综合分析

2020国考面试社会现象题如何综合分析综合分析是面试中的重点题型，属于每年的必考题型，也是各省市着重要注意的板块，当然也是广大考生需要着重准备的部分。中公教育专家在此讲解一下综合分析到底是什么以及社会现象类题目如何解题。 综合是在头脑中将事物的各个部分或各种特征联合为整体。分析是在头脑中将事物的整体分解为部分。举个例子来说，拿出一个手机摆在大家面前，问大家这叫什么的时候，大家都会说这是“手机”，那再问一句为什么它叫手机呢?大家就会说：“它总是被拿在手上，能打电话，能上网，能和别人发信息......”等等，总之它就是能建立起我们与外界的联系。所以，在这个例子当中，我们所统称的“手机”一词就是我们的——综合，而下面关于手机功能的细节描述就是属于——分析。 综合分析包含的有两个部分，一个是时政类，时政类主要是当前社会上存在的一些热点或受关注的事件或话题，包含社会现象和政府政策。另一个是哲理类，主要就是一些名言警句的解答。 今天我们来看一下时政类里的社会现象，主要是讲一些答题的技巧： 社会现象是指社会上出现的某一类事件，而具体的某一事件，往往也归为某一类现象。一般情况下，社会现象都会反映一定的“问题”，或具有一定的争议性。比如：人物品质类、当前干部与群众关系不紧密还有微信问题等。 对于社会现象我们一般采用的是原因分析法和影响分析法。对于社会想象里，这一部分主要是反映存在的问题，所以一开始我们审完题干之后要就行表态，既然它是属于消极类的，那要先给予否定评价然后再分析。原因分析法说的是我们可以先了解当前社会大环境下有没有相关背景，产生的原因，再分析它会带来哪些影响，针对于影响着不好的地方如何改进。概括为背景——原因——影响——对策。而影响分析法主要指的是先分析该事件会带来哪些影响，对于带来的问题提出合理化意见或建议即可。但我们要注意的是对于上面所说的提对策，我们是需要站在一个政府的角度，用政府的思维来提意见、建议的。

初中英语阅读理解专项练习

英语阅读理解专项练习 1．阅读理解 When throwing away rubbish, do you know which Bin it should go in? Have you ever noticed the differently-colored Bins on the street? Some of you might not be able to answer this question. However, it's actually quite important to know how to sort your waste. Not knowing how to sort waste can make it harder to save energy and protect the environment. If you don't sort your waste, all of it will go to a landfill and be buried（埋）together. These landfills can take up large areas of ground that could have been used for planting trees or crops. The electronic waste you throw away, such as batteries, can pollute the soil and groundwater. Other pieces of waste, like the metal part of a pen, can be used to make other things if they are properly recycled. With this in mind, many cities in China have been running waste-sorting campaigns （活动）in recent years. For example, Shanghai announced in July that within three years, all of its residents（居民）should sort their waste into four groups wet, recyclable, harmful and dry. "Wet" waste is also known as household waste." They are things you don't want but that pigs can eat," Guangzhou Daily explained. Paper, metal, glass and other things that can be reused are recyclable waste. Harmful waste includes things like medicine, batteries and fluorescent bulbs. Finally, any waste that's not wet, recyclable or harmful will go in the" dry waste" bin. Many other Chinese cities, including Shenzhen, plan to use this method to sort their garbage. Now that you know this, perhaps you can do your part to protect the environment and encourage others to sort their waste. （1）The passage is most probably from a（an）__________. A. newspaper B. notion C. Advertisement D. science story （2）The underlined word "landfill" in this passage means"__________" in Chinese. A. 垃圾箱 B. 垃圾填埋场 C. 农场 D. 陆地 （3）Which of the following things are harmful waste? A. medicine, fluorescent Bulbs and metal B. Batteries, glass and metal C. medicine, fluorescent Bulbs and Batteries D. medicine, Batteries and paper （4）The author writes this passage in order to __________. A. introduce waste-sorting campaigns in recent years B. tell people to sort the trash and protect the environment

2020-2021中考英语英语阅读理解精选及答案

2020-2021中考英语英语阅读理解精选及答案 一、英语阅读理解专项练习试卷 1．阅读理解 At some point in life, many people develop a mental (精神) problem. While most people get over it, for others it doesn't go away easily. The WHO says that about 20 percent of teenagers worldwide suffer from mental illness. It's thought that the number of teenagers with mental illness around the world will increase by half by 2020. It will become one of the main causes of illness, and even death. In China, the picture isn't bright, either. About one tenth of teenagers under the age of 17 have a mental health challenge. The world is changing fast. Study and relationships have always caused stress, but today the stress is much higher than before, the WHO said. A research centre in Oxford University says that young people today have big stresses at school. For example, they experience bullying (欺凌). In a 2017 report, the centre noted that the Internet was a special source (渠道) of stress. Online, young people often see "messages about perfection" and this causes the young "great uncertainty about their futures", says the centre. Also, according to China Daily, Chinese people don't ask for help with their mental problems. They fear that others will think less of them if they say that they are in mental trouble. Elaine Peng, a US mental health educator, makes a similar point. And in the UK, over three quarters of young people believe their mental problems have a social stigma. It is reported in 2017 that a quarter of young UK people wouldn't ask for help if they developed a mental problem. Young people who don't ask for help for their condition may be creating problems for themselves in the future. Elaine Peng warned that, "If we hide our mental health, it may remain a problem forever." "My message for young people is, if you feel something is wrong within you—ask for help," he told China Daily. （1）Which of the following is NOT the cause of stress according to the passage? A. Heavy schoolwork B. Being bullied at school. C. Some information from the Internet. D. Certainty about the future. （2）Why don't Chinese people ask for help with their mental problems? A. They don't think them serious. B. They can get over them in time. C. They can keep their mental health secret. D. They are afraid of being looked down upon.

初中英语阅读理解专项讲解

初中英语阅读理解专项讲解 一、阅读理解概述 阅读是语言学习的主要目的之一。阅读理解题已经成为全面评估学生英语水平的重要测试题型，在中考英语试卷中所占比重也比较大，它不仅考查学生综合运用英语语言知识的能力，而且考查学生阅读的速度及理解能力。 （一）（2011版）英语《课程标准》五级阅读要求（初中毕业要求） 1、能根据上下文和构词法推断、理解生词的含义； 2、能理解段落中各句子之间的逻辑关系； 3、能找出文章中的主题，理解故事的情节，预测故事情节的发展和可能的结局； 4、能读懂常见体裁的阅读材料； 5、能根据不同的阅读目的运用简单的阅读策略获取信息； 6、能利用字典等工具书进行学习； 7、除教材外，课外阅读量应累计达到15万词以上。 综合语言运用能力目标：能读懂供7~9年级学习阅读的简单读物和报刊、杂志，克服生词障碍，理解大意。能根据阅读目的运用适当的阅读策略。 （二）从近几年初中升学考试试卷来看，阅读理解考题的类型大致可分为三种：

1.阅读短文，选择答案 这类题目类型是阅读理解最常考的一种。这类题型的选项应在理解短文的基础上做出判断，坚持短文内容与考项对比的方法，把一些与短文内容明显相符或不相符的答案选出来，然后再对要求根据上下文进行推埋的考项即短文伪容中没有直接答案的考项进行推断。 2.阅读短文，判断正误 这种题型要求应考者根据短文的内容，对所列的句子与短文内容是否相符做出正误判断。应考者做这类考题时应特别注意反义词、近义词以及一些词组的互替使用。 3.阅读短文，回答问题 考生对这种题型除了将考项的内容与短文内容对比之外，还应特别留意一般疑问句、特殊疑问句和反意疑问句。对于一般疑问句，回答要简洁明了，用Yes，No。对于特殊疑问句的回答，切忌用Yes，No，答话也应尽量简单，可以避免不必要的丢分。对于反意疑问句，应根据反意疑问句的特点和短文的内容仔细分析。 此外纵观这几年全国各地的中考“阅读理解”试题，用于阅读理解测试的语篇内容涉及社会生活的方方面面，除了一般的英语故事外，还有书信、通知、广告、交通图、各种表格等。在体现知识测试的同时，更注重英语的实际应用。因此，要做好中考英语试题中的语篇“阅读理解”题，需要
