句型梳理
1【教材原句】
Prepared with some research findings,I decided on three possible approaches...(P20)
有一些研究發(fā)現(xiàn)作準備,我決定了三種可能的方法……
【句法分析】 Prepared with some research findings為過去分詞短語作狀語,相當于謂語動詞為被動的狀語從句,該動作和主句的主語之間存在著邏輯上的動賓關(guān)系。
①(2009年高考福建卷)Reminded not to miss the flight at 15∶20,the manager set out for the airport in a hurry.
被提醒不要錯過15∶20 的航班,經(jīng)理匆忙去了飛機場。

[即境活用]
2【教材原句】 Follow it up,explore all around it,and before you know it,you will have something worth thinking about to occupy your mind.(P25)
跟隨它,在它的周圍探索,那么在你知道它之前,你將有值得考慮的某些東西占用你的大腦。
【句法分析】 本題考查“祈使句+and/then/or/+陳述句”結(jié)構(gòu)的用法。
①Work harder and/then you will succeed in your studies.
=If you work harder,you’ll succeed in your studies.

如果你更加努力學習,在學習上你就會成功。
②Study hard,or you’ll fail in your exams.

A.Follow B.Following

作文指導
圖畫類作文
【體裁導航】
圖畫類的材料直觀、形象、生動,具有很大的自由發(fā)揮空間,所以,近幾年一直是高考英語寫作題的考查形式。
圖畫類材料的圖片可能是一幅或幾幅,也可能以漫畫形式出現(xiàn);其寫作體裁更不固定,可以記敘,可以說明,也可以議論。但無論是何種形式,何種體裁,其寫作的過程及要求基本相同。
1.認真觀察圖片所表達的內(nèi)容或內(nèi)涵,分清圖與圖之間的關(guān)系,甚至要考慮到圖片表達的是何時、何地、什么人、什么事、過程和結(jié)果等。
2.考慮用什么樣的體裁來寫(記敘、說明、議論都有可能),從而確定你的寫作模式。是日記、通知,要注意其格式;是書信、Email,要注意其特定的要求或組成部分;是議論,則要把握好論點的設(shè)立,論據(jù)的選擇和論證的拓展等。
3.文章的過渡詞、過渡段在圖畫類的書面表達中起著關(guān)鍵的“潤滑”作用,可見,如何串點成文,整體劃一,關(guān)聯(lián)詞必不可少。
4.如何開頭才能做到“先聲奪人”,怎樣結(jié)尾才能令人“回味無窮”,也是要通盤考慮的問題。
【寫作示例】
請仔細觀察以下五幅圖,根據(jù)圖中信息用英語寫一篇有關(guān)第三中學優(yōu)秀學生方芳的短文。
要求:1.要點齊全,適當增加細節(jié);
2.條理清晰,行文連貫;
3.詞數(shù):150左右。
【寫作要領(lǐng)】
本篇書面表達屬于看圖說話類。寫作時,首先看清要求,認真審題,確定文體、人稱和時態(tài)。這是一篇故事性的記敘文,主體時態(tài)應為一般過去時,應用第三人稱來寫。
其次,通過對五幅圖的認真觀察,得出故事的主要情節(jié):一天夜里,風刮得很大。方芳凌晨兩點鐘起床,趕到學校,把窗戶關(guān)好后回家。
然后仔細觀察每一幅圖,注意圖畫之間的內(nèi)在聯(lián)系,不放過每一處細節(jié),如圖畫中鐘表的時間為兩點鐘。
最后,根據(jù)以上的觀察和分析,開始用英文進行寫作。寫作時注意不但要把每一幅圖的信息表達出來,還要注意圖畫之間的銜接,注意使用必要的連接詞并照顧到首尾呼應。
【金點模板】
第一幅和第二幅圖(兩幅圖可根據(jù)需要放在一起進行描述)
One night,at about 2 o’clock,it began to blow outside./It was at 2 o’clock in the early morning that it began to blow.

The wind stuck the window open,and she felt a bit cold.

She opened the door and rushed out into the dark to the school.
On the way,the strong wind made it difficult for her to go forward quickly.In spite of this,she ran as fast as possible,and finally she got to the school.

She turned on the lights and found that all the windows were open.

【范文點評】
①It was nearly at 2 o’clock in the early morning that the wind began to blow outside.It was so strong that the noise woke up Fang Fang.②The wind blowing through the windows that were struck open made her feel a bit cold.She realized that a heavy rain would soon arrive.③Suddenly she thought of the windows in the classroom and wondered whether the students on duty had closed the windows properly or not.④Without hesitation,she began to put on her clothes,opened the door and rushed out into the dark to her school.
⑤On the way,the strong wind made it difficult for her to go forward.In spite of this,she ran as fast as possible and finally managed to get to the school before the rain came.⑥She hurried to her classroom,turned on the lights,and found that some of the windows were open.⑦She made great efforts to shut up all the windows one by one,fighting against the heavy wind.⑧After making sure that all the windows were properly closed,she turned off the lights and left the classroom.Hardly had she got home when the rain started to pour down.⑨Tired and sleepy as she was,she felt happy about the meaningful thing she had done.
【點評】
①該句使用強調(diào)句型,突出事件發(fā)生的時間是凌晨兩點。
②現(xiàn)在分詞作定語修飾the wind,更加生動形象;用定語從句強調(diào)風大。
③使用并列復合句,使文章句式更加多樣化。
④介詞短語用得恰到好處;一系列謂語動詞的并列使用展現(xiàn)出她當時急切的心情和迅速的動作。
⑤it作形式賓語。
⑥三個并列謂語表明動作的連貫與迅速,符合她當時的心情。
⑦短語make efforts to do 的使用非常貼切;現(xiàn)在分詞作伴隨狀語,突出她當時關(guān)窗的難度之大。
⑧準確地應用了hardly...when...句式。
⑨使用as引導的倒裝句式,使文章句式豐富。

One possible version:
March_22,2010 Monday Sunny
Today is World Water Day.In the morning,we had a class meeting talking about what to do on this special day.Finally,we reached an agreement and immediately began to make preparations for the afternoon’s activities.
At 2∶00 p.m.we went to the neighboring community to hand out leaflets,calling on people to save water.Around 3 o’clock,the expert we invited made an excellent speech on the current water crisis in China.He talked about the draught in the Southeast and the severe shortage of water in out city.The speech had a strong appeal to all the people present,including me.
After the speech,we had a discussion with our neighbors about various ways of saving water in our daily life.I suggested turning off the tap water immediately after use,and a granny came up with the idea of reusing the water from kitchen,for example,the water after washing fruits and vegetables can be used to water flowers and so on.
Today,I have had a better understanding of the importance of saving water and really learned a lot about saving water.
