[提綱]

一、表明申請工作的意向(applyfor，qualifications，lookfor)

二、介紹個(gè)人情況

1．就讀院校、專業(yè)(major)、年級(sophomore)

2．學(xué)習(xí)成績

3．課余活動(practice，part-timejobs)

三、表達(dá)期望隨函附上簡歷，敬請斟酌(enclosed，resume，favorableconsideration)

[解析]

(1)首先明確指出應(yīng)聘的職位。Iamwritingtoapplyfor...

(2)指出自己能勝任工作并且向往已久。

(3)介紹個(gè)人情況。

(4)注意compulsorycourses“必修課”及optionalcourses“選修課”的說法。

(5)graspopportunitiestodo...“抓住機(jī)會做某事”。

(6)enclosed“隨函附上”。

(7)注意“敬請斟酌”的表達(dá)。

(8)落款勿遺漏。

[寫作提綱]

一、電視廣告繁多，人們意見不同(anumerousof，advertisements，differentviews)

二、分析電視廣告的利弊

1．使我們了解產(chǎn)品信息，多樣選擇(keepinformedof，morechoices)

2．廣告費(fèi)用贊助我們喜愛的電視節(jié)目(advertisementfee，programs)

3．不實(shí)廣告及虛假廣告不正當(dāng)牟利(exaggerate，false，illegible)

4．廣告打斷電視節(jié)目令人煩惱(breaking，boring)

三、提出建議電視臺有責(zé)任確保廣告的真實(shí)性，并規(guī)范廣告播報(bào)(truth，standardizeD

(1)itisinevitableto“…是不可避免的”，為亮點(diǎn)表達(dá)。

(2)find...annoying“認(rèn)為…是惱人的”。

(3)keepusinformedof“使我們了解情況”。

7.SayNotoDrunkDriving[1]Asisknowntoalldrunkdrivingisverydangerous.[2]Itputstorisksnotonlythedriver'slifebutalsothoseofotherinnocentpeople.[3]DangerousasitistherehavebeeSayNotoDrunkDriving[1]Asisknowntoall,drunkdrivingisverydangerous.[2]Itputstorisksnotonlythedriver'slifebutalsothoseofotherinnocentpeople.[3]Dangerousasitis,therehavebee解析：本文要求對酒醉駕駛的原因進(jìn)行分析，并提出門己的看法。如果要求分析酒醉駕駛的不良后果，那就容易點(diǎn)，可outline要求分析酒醉駕駛的原因，許多考生可能絞盡腦汁也不知道該說什么好了。

范文從兩個(gè)角度分析原因：首先，經(jīng)濟(jì)上富裕了，開車的人更多了；其次，司機(jī)主觀上對自己的駕駛技術(shù)太過門信。這兩條都很好，與醉駕密切相關(guān)，很有說服力。

是否還有別的原因呢?——無酒不成宴的傳統(tǒng)習(xí)慣勺現(xiàn)代生活不合拍；法律上對醉駕處罰力度不夠；酒席上人們的自控能力太差；等等。讀者可以自己盡情展開自己的思路，寫出好文章來。

最后還要說明“我認(rèn)為”，當(dāng)然要與標(biāo)題SayNo的看法—致了。但要注意如何表達(dá)。

Analysis

[1]由outline改寫而來，得來毫不費(fèi)功夫。

[2]是[1]的支持句，putsthtodanger/risks是較好的搭配。

[3]還是描寫現(xiàn)象。其中暗含這種現(xiàn)象的存在原因，于是下文就可以就這些原因進(jìn)行分析。注意這句話與前一段話之間有轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，用了讓步結(jié)構(gòu)。

[4][5]onereasonisthat；anotherreasonisthat…，銜接自然。

[6]注意tallvictimto的用法

[7]是作文標(biāo)題的再現(xiàn)!主題句。

[8]怎樣sayno呢?再提—下具體措施，文章就更加有力度了。也是[7]的支持/擴(kuò)展句。

12.manufacturingprocessesmanufacturingprocesses解析：第3個(gè)小標(biāo)題TYPESOFGREENHOUSEGASES下面最后一段第1句：Scientistsaregrowingconcernedaboutothergasesproducedfrommanufacturingprocessesthatposeanenvironmentalrisk．

13.B解析：根據(jù)原文中修飾investors的定語從句whoaregrantedsharesinacompany可知，股份公司的投資者在公司里占有股份，故B項(xiàng)正確。

14.C解析：原文該句前半個(gè)分句提供了關(guān)于Japanesefirms的信息，其中這個(gè)分句末尾的theelderly表明本題應(yīng)選C。

15.B解析：推理判斷題。題干問提前退休對個(gè)人健康保險(xiǎn)產(chǎn)生的影響。根據(jù)原文可知，退休后人們?nèi)韵硎芡瑯拥谋ｋU(xiǎn)，期限為18至36個(gè)月。B中的coveredbythesamepolicyforacertaintime是原文中g(shù)uaranteedcoverageunderthesameinsurancepolicyforthenext18to36months的同義轉(zhuǎn)述。

16.stressstress解析：由題干關(guān)鍵詞inclinetoputonmostweight定位到第五個(gè)小標(biāo)題下第一段最后一句。專家們指出處于極大壓力狀態(tài)下的人們傾向于增長最多的體重。

17.A解析：由“FirstSteps”部分第二段最后一句“Overweightisthesecondleadingcauseofpreventabledeath，aftersmoking，intheU．S．，accordingtotheAOA．”和“UnderstandingtheRisks”部分第二段第二句“‘Therehavebeengoodstudieslookingattheriskofdyingafterweightlosssurgery，showingthatalthoughthereisariskofdeathwithsurgery，theoverallsurvivalrateisimprovedwithsurgerycomparedtonothavingthesurgeryatall，andlivingwithobesity，’saysHerron．”可見體重超重會導(dǎo)致死亡。因此人們在傳統(tǒng)的減肥方法無效的時(shí)候選擇手術(shù)。故此題判斷為YES。

18.theamountofcholesteroltheamountofcholesterol解析：本題應(yīng)鎖定文章第四段。該段第二句提到Theamountofcholesterolisaffectedbydietandbyphysicalqualitiesweinheritfromourparents。因此，本題應(yīng)填入heamountofcholesterol。題干將原文的被動語態(tài)改為了主動語態(tài)，并將段首句改寫成了所填詞的同位語。

19.C解析：題干出自第三段中SunilBhaitiMittal的一句話。原文中說it會給money-transfer行業(yè)帶來革命性影響。代詞it指代的是前文中提到的19家電話運(yùn)營商與萬事達(dá)合作推出的用手機(jī)短信匯款的方法(usetheirhandsetstosendmoneyabroad…remittanceswillbesentastextmessages)。[C]與原文意思相符。

20.innerexperienceinnerexperience解析：本題的關(guān)鍵詞manyAsiancultures和one'sperceptionsofphysicalreality，由此可定位于第二段，在中間部分會發(fā)現(xiàn)in
