Depending as they do on cars and planes fore delivery. Yet they are still too slow for some people to send urgent documentsand letters.The invention of the fax machine increased the speed of delivering documents even more. When you send a fax you are sending a copy of a piece of correspondence to someone by telephone service. It was not until the early 1980s that such a service was developed enough for businesses to be able to fax documents to each other.The fax service is still very much in use when copies of documents require to be sent, but, as a way of fast correspondence, it has been largely taken the place of by email, Email is used to describe messages sent form one computer user to another.There are advantages and disadvantages with emails.

Your reading environment can have a great effect on your understanding, so give some thought to how you can create or choose the right reading environments. The right environment allows you to stay alert(专注的)and to keep all of your attention on the text, especially when it is both interesting and difficult.When you’re at home, you can usually create effective conditions for reading. You might want to choose a particular place-a desk or table, for example-where you always read. Make sure the place you choo se is well lighted, and sit in a chair that requires you to sit straight. Reading in a chair that’s too softand comfortable is likely to make you sleepy! Keep your active reading tools (pens, markers, notebooks or paper) and a dictionary close at hand.Before you sit down for a reading period, try to reduce all possible interruptions. Turn off your phone, the television, and the radio. Tell your family members or roommates that you’ll be busy for a while. If necessary, put a “Do not disturb” sign on your door! The more interruptions you must deal with while you read, the harder it will be to keep your attention on the task at hand.49. The author believes that the right reading environment_________.A.helps readers a little in their reading tasksB.helps readers a lot in their readers a lot in their reading tasksC.can only be created at one’s homeD.can only be created outside one’s home50. Which type of the following interruptions is mentioned in the text?A. Dictionaries.B. Paper.C. Phone calls.D. Notebooks.51. What would be the best title for the text?A.How to Read FastB.Creating an Effective Reading EnvironmentC.The Ways to Reduce Possible InterruptionsD.What to ReadE.DIn many countries the standard of living enjoyed by their people has increased rapidly in recent years. Sadly, not everyone in these countries is so fortunate and many people in rich countries are homeless. The reasons for homelessness are various, but poverty（贫穷）is undoubtedly one of the main causes. The homeless people may have become jobless and then been unable to pay their rent and so no longer have a roof over their heads. Often, the fact that unemployed people get help from the government prevents this from happening, but not always.Some homeless people are mentally ill and have no one to look after them. Some are young people who, for one reason or another, have left home and have nowhere to live. Many of them have had a serious disagreement with their parents and have left home, choosing to go to a city and live on the streets. Sometimes they have taken such action because they have been unable to get on with a step-parent.Many homeless people get into the habit of begging to get enough money to stay alive, but many of the general public refuse to give anything to beggars. Often they are moved on by the police, being accused（指控），whether rightly or wrongly, of forceful begging . There are many who disrespect homeless people.Some cynics（愤世嫉俗的人）declare that homeless people choose to live the life which they lead. But who would willingly choose to live in z shop doorway, under a bridge or in a cardboard box?52. According to the text, what causes some people to be homeless?A. Lack of money.B. The increased standard of living.C. No government help.D. Agreement with their parents.53. It can be inferred from the text that________.A.the homeless are willing to live under a bridge or in a cardboard boxB.you will not find homeless people in countries with a high standard of livingC.the mentally ill live on the stress because they want the company of other homeless peopleD.the unemployed who receive help may still be among the homeless54. In paragraph 2, “a roof over their needs” most probably means _________.A. a capB. a carC. a homeD. a coveringEAmong rich countries, people in the United States work the longest hours. They work much longer than in Europe. This difference is quite surprising because productivity per hour worked is the same in the United States as it is in France, Spain and Germany, and it is growing at a similar speed.In most countries and at most times in history, as people have become richer they have chosen to work less. In other words they have decided to “spend” a part of their extra income on a fuller personal life. Over the last fifty years Europeans have continued this pattern, and hours of work have fallen sharply. But not in the United States. We do not fully know why this is. One reason may be more satisfying work, or less satisfying personal lives.Longer hours do of course increase the GDP (国内生产总值). So the United States has produced more per worker than, say, France. The United States also has more of its people at work, while in France many more mothers and older workers have decided to stay at home. The overall result is that American GDP per head is 40% higher than in France, even though productivity per hour worked is the same.It is not clear which of the two situations is better. As we have seen, work has to be compared with other values like family life, which often get lost in interest. It is too early to explain the different trends （趋势）in happiness over time in different countries. But it is a disappointing idea that in the United States happiness has made no progress since 1975, while it has risen in Europe. Could this have anything to do with trends in the work-life balance (平衡) ?56. From the text we know that the author .A. believes that longer working hours is betterB. prefers shorter working hours to longer onesC. says nothing certain about which pattern is betterD. thinks neither of the patterns is good57. Which of the following countries has more of its people at work?A. Spain.B. France.C. Germany.D. America.58. In the last paragraph, the underlined word “which” refers to_______.A. family lifeB. situationsC. other valuesD. trends59. What message can we get from the text?A. The GDP of Europe is higher than that of America.B. Two possible reasons are given for working longer hours in the US.C. People all over the world choose to work less when they are richer.D. Americans are happier than Europeans.60. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Americans and EuropeansB. Staying at HomeC. Work and ProductivityD.

Dear fellow students, Our monitor suggests that we have “Friday New Hour”. I think ____________________________________________ _ 范文: Our monitor suggests that we have “Friday New Hour”. I think that it is a good idea. Everyone knows that we are busy all day. Seldom do we know what is happening both at home and abroad, let alone what we can do for our country. By reading newspapers we can get more information about the world outside. So I think “Friday New Hour” can broaden our mind and enrich our school life. What’s more, it will help us improve our reading skills. As for my suggestion, I think it’s better to have it twice a week. And we should make a choice about what we’ll read. I am sure everyone will benefit a lot from this activity.建议看怎样解决这个问题) Dear Grown-up , I have read about yourcomplaint that your mother always treats you as a seven-year-old boy , which makes you feel uncomfortable because you will enter college this coming fall.

Sadly, not everyone in these countries is so fortunate and many people in rich countries are homeless.The reasons for homelessness are various, but poverty（贫穷）is undoubtedly one of the main causes. The homeless people may have become jobless and then been unable to pay their rent and so no longer have a roof over their heads. Often, the fact that unemployed people get help from the government prevents this from happening, but not always.Some homeless people are mentally ill and have no one to look after them. Some are young people who, for one reason or another, have left home and have nowhere to live. Many of them have had a serious disagreement with their parents and have left home, choosing to go to a city and live on the streets. Sometimes they have taken such action because they have been unable to get on with a step-parent.Many homeless people get into the habit of begging to get enough money to stay alive, but many of the general public refuse to give anything to beggars. Often they are moved on by the police, being accused（指控），whether rightly or wrongly, of forceful begging . There are many who disrespect homeless people. Some cynics（愤世嫉俗的人）declare that homeless people choose to live the life which they lead. But who would willingly choose to live in z shop doorway, under a bridge or in a cardboard box?52. According to the text, what causes some people to be homeless?A. Lack of money.B. The increased standard of living.C. No government help.D. Agreement with their parents.53. It can be inferred from the text that________.A.the homeless are willing to live under a bridge or in a cardboard boxB.you will not find homeless people in countries with a high standard of livingC.the mentally ill live on the stress because they want the company of other homeless peopleD.the unemployed who receive help may still be among the homeless54. In paragraph 2, “a roof over their needs” most probably means _________.A. a capB. a carC. a homeD. a coveringEAmong rich countries, people in the United States work the longest hours. They work much longer than in Europe. This difference is quite surprising because productivity per hour worked is the same in the United States as it is in France, Spain and Germany, and it is growing at a similar speed.In most countries and at most times in history, as people have become richer they have chosen to work less. In other words they have decided to “spend” a part of their extra income on a fuller personal life. Over the last fifty years Europeans have continued this pattern, and hours of work have fallen sharply. But not in the United States. We do not fully know why this is. One reason may be more satisfying work, or less satisfying personal lives.Longer hours do of course increase the GDP (国内生产总值). So the United States has produced more per worker than, say, France. The United States also has more of its people at work, while in France many more mothers and older workers have decided to stay at home. The overall result is that American GDP per head is 40% higher than in France, even though productivity per hour worked is the same.It is not clear which of the two situations is better. As we have seen, work has to be compared with other values like family life, which often get lost in interest. It is too early to explain the different trends（趋势）in happiness over time in different countries. But it is a disappointing idea that in the United States happiness has made no progress since 1975, while it has risen in Europe. Could this have anything to do with trends in the work-life balance (平衡) ?56. From the text we know that the author .A. believes that longer working hours is betterB. prefers shorter working hours to longer onesC. says nothing certain about which pattern is betterD. thinks neither of the patterns is good57. Which of the following countries has more of its people at work?A. Spain.B. France.C. Germany.D. America.58. In the last paragraph, the underlined word “which” refers to_______.A. family lifeB. situationsC. other valuesD. trends59. What message can we get from the text?A. The GDP of Europe is higher than that of America.B. Two possible reasons are given for working longer hours in the US.C. People all over the world choose to work less when they are richer.D. Americans are happier than Europeans.60. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Americans and EuropeansB. Staying at HomeC. Work and ProductivityD.

It requires time, effort, and dedication, as well as effective methods and strategies. Therefore, you need to find a suitable course, teacher, or tutor who can guide you through the learning process and provide you with feedback and support. You also need to practice English regularly, both in and outside the classroom, by reading, writing, listening, and speaking. Moreover, you need to be motivated and curious, and to enjoy the learning experience, as it can be challenging but also rewarding.In conclusion, learning English is a crucial skill that can benefit you in many ways, from personal growth to career advancement, from cultural enrichment to global communication.

2014高考陕西英语作文With the rapid development of technology, its impact on various aspects of our lives has become increasingly evident. One of the most significant areas where technology has made a profound difference is in the field of education. This essay will explore how technology has transformed the way we learn and teach, focusing on the advantages and challenges that it presents.Firstly, technology has made education more accessible to a wider audience. Online courses and digital resources have broken down geographical barriers, allowing students from all over the world to access quality education. This has been particularly beneficial for those living in remote areas or those with limited mobility.Secondly, the use of technology in the classroom has enhanced the learning experience. Interactive whiteboards, tablets, and educational software have made lessons more engaging and dynamic. Students can now visualize complex concepts, participate in virtual experiments, and collaborate on group projects in ways that were not possible a decade ago.However, the integration of technology in education also comes with its set of challenges. One of the main concerns is the digital divide, where students from less affluent backgrounds may not have equal access to the necessary technology. This can lead to disparities in the quality ofeducation received and exacerbate existing inequalities.Additionally, there is the issue of information overload.With the vast amount of information available online, it can be difficult for students to discern reliable sources from unreliable ones. This requires a new set of skills, such as critical thinking and information literacy, which must be taught alongside traditional subjects.In conclusion, technology has revolutionized education,offering numerous benefits but also posing certain challenges. It is crucial for educators to stay abreast of technological advancements and to address the issues that arise. By doing so, we can ensure that technology serves as a tool for enhancing education rather than a barrier to learning.Word Count: 250 words。
2014陕西英语作文
2014陕西英语作文In recent years, the integration of technology in the educational sector has been a topic of significant interest and debate. As an English teacher in Shaanxi Province, I have witnessed firsthand the profound effects that technological advancements have had on the way we teach and how students learn. This essay will explore the impact of technology on education in Shaanxi, focusing on the benefits and challenges it presents.Firstly, technology has greatly enhanced the accessibility of educational resources. With the advent of online learning platforms and digital libraries, students in Shaanxi now have access to a wealth of information that was previously unavailable to them. This has not only broadened their horizons but also improved their English language skills by providing them with authentic materials such as e-books, articles, and videos from native English speakers.Secondly, the use of interactive whiteboards and multimedia tools in classrooms has made English lessons more engaging and dynamic. These tools allow teachers to incorporate various forms of media into their lessons, such as audio clips, videos, and images, which can help illustrate complex grammatical concepts in a more digestible way. For instance, using a video clip to demonstrate the pronunciation of a difficult word can be far more effective than simply describing the sounds with words.However, the integration of technology in education is not without its challenges. One of the primary concerns is the digital divide, which refers to the gap between those whohave access to technology and those who do not. In some rural areas of Shaanxi, students may not have the same level of access to technological resources as their urban counterparts, which can exacerbate existing educational inequalities.Additionally, there is the issue of maintaining students' attention in a technology-rich environment. While technology can make lessons more engaging, it can also be a source of distraction. As an English teacher, it is crucial to strike a balance between utilizing technology to enhance learning and ensuring that it does not detract from the educational experience.In conclusion, the impact of technology on education in Shaanxi Province has been multifaceted. It has opened up new avenues for learning and provided students with access to a vast array of resources that can aid their English language acquisition. However, it is essential to address the challenges that come with technological integration, such as the digital divide and the potential for distraction, to ensure that all students can benefit from these advancements. As educators, we must continue to adapt and evolve ourteaching methods to harness the power of technology while mitigating its pitfalls.。

It was nice to just relax and spend time with my friends without any particular agenda.After the mall, we went to grab some food at our favorite fast food joint. We laughed and joked around as we ate, not caring about the calories or the mess we were making. It felt good to just let loose and enjoy eachother's company.As the day turned into evening, we found ourselves at a local park, sitting on the grass and watching the sunset. The sky was painted in beautiful shades of pink and orange, and for a moment, everything felt peaceful and perfect. Wetalked about our dreams and aspirations, and it was comforting to know that we were all in this together, navigating through life's uncertainties.Eventually, it was time to head home.

2006陕西高考英语阅读真题精编无错版
2006陕西高考英语阅读真题精选AFor centuries, the only form of written correspondence（通信）was the letter. Letters were, and are, sent by some form of postal service, the history of which goes back a long way. Indeed, the Egyptians began sending letters from about 2000 BC, as did the Chinese a thousand years later.Of course, modern postal services now are much more developed and faster, depending as they do on cars and planes for delivery. Yet they are still too slow for some people to send urgent documents（紧急文件）and letters.The invention of the fax（传真）machine increased the speed of delivering documents even more. When you send a fax, you are sending a copy of a piece of correspondence to someone by telephone service. It was not until the early 1980s that such a service was developed enough for businesses to be able to fax documents to each other.The fax service is still very much in use when copies of documents require to be sent, but, as a way of fast correspondence, it has been largely taken the place of by email. Email is used to describe messages sent from one computer user to another.There are advantages and disadvantages with emails. If you send someone an email, then he will receive it extremely quickly. Normal postal services are rather slow as far as speed of delivery is concerned.However, if you write something by email, which you might later regret, and send it immediately, there is no chance for second thoughts. At least, if you are posting a letter you have to address and seal（封）the envelope and take it to the post box. There is plenty of time to change your mind. The message is think before you email!41. We can learn from the text that __________.A. email is less popular than the fax serviceB. the postal service has over the years become fasterC. the postal service has over the years become slowerD. the fax service has a history as long as the postal service does42.

In the last paragraph, the writer mentions “think before you email” to show that __________.A. you may regret if you don’t seal your envelopeB. you may regret before you send something by emailC. you’d better not send your email in a hurryD. you need plenty of time to send an email44. The text mainly deals with __________.A. the progress in correspondenceB. the advantage of fax machinesC. the advantage of emailsD. the invention of fax machinesBLONDON Thursday July 26 (Reuters)— Eddy missed his girlfriend Anna so much he flew back to Britain from Australia to propose（求婚）to her. The problem is she did the same in the opposite direction.He and Anna even managed to miss each other when they sat in the same airport waiting room in Singapore at the same time to wait for connecting flights.Anna, hearbroken when she arrived at Eddy’s Sydney flat to find he had flown to London, told The Times: “It was as though someone was playing a cruel joke on us.”“He is the most ro mantic person I have ever known. I think our problem is that we are both quite impulsive （冲动的）people. We are al ways trying to surprise each other.”After an 11,000-mile flight across the globe, she was greeted by Eddy’s astonished roommate asking what she was doing there.Eddy, a 27-year-old engineer, had taken a year off to travel round Australia. But he was missing Anna, a 26-year-old secretary, so much he got a job on a Sydney building site（工地）and started saving for a surprise.He then flew home to Britain and went to her flat armed with an engagement（订婚）ring, wine and flowers.“I really missed Anna and I’d b een thinking about her all the time. I was so excited when she phoned me from Australia,” he said.Eddy then asked Anna to marry him on the phone. “I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry but I accepted,” she said.Anna was given a tour of Sydney by Eddy’s friends before going back home.

Your reading environment can have a great effect on your understanding, so give some thought to how you can create（营造）or choose the right reading environments. The right environment allows you to stay alert（专注的）and to keep all of your attention on the text, especially when it is both interesting and difficult.When you’re at home, you can usually create effective conditions for reading. You might want to choose a particular place— a desk or table, for example— where you always read. Make sure the place you choose is well lighted, and sit in a chair that requires you to sit straight. Reading in a chair that’s too soft and comfortable is likely to make you sleepy! Keep your active reading tools (pens, markers, notebooks or paper) and a dictionary close at hand.Before you sit down for a reading period, try to reduce all possible interruptions. Turn off your phone, the television, and the radio. Tell your family members or roommates that you’ll be busy for a while. If necessary, put a “Do not disturb” sign on your door! The more interrup tions you must deal with while you read, the harder it will be to keep your attention on the task at hand.49.

Creating an Effective Reading Environment.C. The Ways to Reduce Possible Interruptions.D.

陕西省近5年高考英语作文
陕西省近5年高考英语作文Over the past five years, the Gaokao essay topics in Shaanxi Province have reflected a diverse range of themes, from cultural heritage to technological advancements, and from personal growth to societal responsibilities. These topics not only test students' language proficiency but also their critical thinking and creativity.

Through the rigorous academic curriculum, engaging extracurricular activities, and the mentorship of esteemed faculty, I have not only expanded my knowledge but also developed critical thinking skills, collaborative abilities, and a lifelong love of learning.As we embark on the next chapter of our lives, it is essential that we remain grounded in the values that have brought us to this point. The pursuit of excellence, the importance of integrity, and the power of perseverance will continue to serve as guiding principles as we navigate the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.It is often said that the true measure of a person's success is not found in their material possessions or professional accomplishments, but in the impact they have on the lives of others. As we move forward, let us strive to be a force for good in the world, using our education and talents to make a positive difference in our communities and beyond.The path ahead may not always be easy, but I am confident that we have the knowledge, skills, and determination to overcome any obstacle we may face. Let us embrace the unknown with enthusiasm and a willingness to learn and grow. As the great poet Robert Frost once wrote, "Two roads diverged in a wood, and I I took the one lesstraveled by, and that has made all the difference."I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to my teachers, mentors, and classmates for their unwavering support and guidance. Your belief in me has inspired me to reach heights I never thought possible. To my fellow graduates, I wish you all the best as you pursue your dreams and make your mark on the world. Remember, thefuture is in your hands, and I have no doubt that you will accomplish great things.As I conclude, I want to leave you with a quote from Nelson Mandela, who said, "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." Let us use our education to build a better, more just, and more equitable society for ourselves and for generations to come.Congratulations, class of 2014!中文回答：亲爱的朋友们、老师们、同学们，。

Our class have had a discussion about what to do during the holiday. Some are in favor of staying at home. They think it's both convenient and comfortable. What's more, they can save money for other purposes. But they will lose the chance of getting to know the outside world. However, others prefer to go out for traveling since it can increase their knowledge and broaden their horizons. But they will spend more money and meet some difficulties while traveling.
