完整版讲义---华夏大地自考高伟老师主讲，真的很MAN！！第一单元知识点的回顾Text A1.choose----choice：词型转换经常考，同时注意该词的过去式和过去完成式。
2.★available:这个词考的频率很高。
换句话说，如果在答案中出现了该词，从词义上应该给予其优先考虑。
这个词出现的句子中经常会同时出现ticket, food, book等。
3.decide----decision，注意词性上的变化。
4.purpose:这个词一旦出现，它既可以考本词的意思，也可以考后面的谓语动词的形式，记住：凡是出现purpose, aim, objective, plan，dream, goal等有含有目的性的词，后面的谓语动词一定是to do的形式，同时关注这些词是否为复数形式，如果是，谓语动词一定是复数的。
5.achieve----achievement，注意词型上转换。
6.★in the way:妨碍，挡路，阻碍。
区别in a way：从某种程度上。
★on theway (to)在去…路上(★on the way home)和by the way：顺便说一句。
7.★★involve----involve ment(in)：注意词型转换，词义及介词搭配。
8.★consider----consideration。
注意词型上的转换，同时牢记take intoconsideration(account)，如果单独考本词，后面的动词一定是+ing形式(动名词)，但注意主动和被动含义上的区别。
9.make a guess at:注意固定习语的搭配。
10.certain----certainly----★certainty----★★uncertainty：注意词性和词义上的转换。
11.risk:注意后面接ing的动名词形式。
12. sometimes…;at other times…:注意前后句型上的搭配，很有可能在完型里考。

II. Text Learning300 Hurdles①Life may give you a negative, but don't despair - it may just develop into abeautiful picture one day. This year, I realized my theory that I have on life.Life is like a 300m hurdle race. Since I run the 300m hurdles, I would know whatthe race is like.②The first thing to any race is worrying about whether you are going to win ornot. This relates to worrying about the petty things in life. Does it reallymatter if you win? Is it really going to be the end of the world? Or will you beupset if you lose and then forget about it? (1)In life we worry too much andlive in the moment too little. （承上总结句）③(2)Next is the lining up in our own individual lanes. We each start atdifferent spots, but the race is still the same distance for everyone.（承上启下句）(3)This relates to our lives taking us to different places and putting us indifferent situations, but hopefully we will end up in the same place, but maybeat different times.④Now comes the beginning of the race. We all try to keep up with everyone andpace ourselves with other people. (4)This symbolizes that at times in everyone'slives we worry, about fitting in or being the same as other people, instead ofworrying about being unique. If everyone were the same, the world would beincredibly boring.本部分重点及难点：显示重难点解析1. In life we worry too much and live in the moment too little.生活中，我们担心得太多，而活在当下太少。

Text LearningSpilt Milk① Have you heard of the story about split milk? (1)Well, we all know there is no use crying over split milk. But this story is different. I would hope all parents would respond in this manner.② I recently heard a story about a famous research scientist（研究科学家，高级研究员）who had made several very important medical breakthroughs. (2)He was interviewed by a newspaper reporter who asked him why he was so much more creative than the average person; what set him so far apart from others?③ He responded that, in his opinion, it all came from an experience with his mother that occurred when he was about two years old. (3)He had been trying to remove a bottle of milk from the refrigerator when he lost his grip on the slippery bottle and it fell,spilling its contents all over the kitchen floor - a veritable sea of milk!④ When his mother came into the kitchen, instead of yelling at him, giving him a lecture, or punishing him, she said," (4)Robert, what a great and wonderful mess you have made! I have rarely seen such a huge puddle of milk. Well, the damage has already been done. Would you like to get down and play in the milk for a few minutes before we clean it up?"⑤Indeed, he did. After a few minutes, his mother said，"You know, Robert, whenever you make a mess like this, eventually you have to clean it up and restore everything to its proper order. So, how would you like to do that? We could use a sponge, a towel, or a mop. Which do you prefer?" he chose the sponge and together they cleaned up the spilt milk.⑥ His mother then said, "You know, what we have here is a failed experiment in how to effectively carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands. Let's go out in the back yard and fill the bottle with water and see if you can discover a way to carry it without dropping it." (5)The little boy learned that if he grasped the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands, he could carry it without dropping it.

I would hope allparents would respond in this manner.②I recently heard a story about a famous research scientist（研究科学家，高级研究员）whohad made several very important medical breakthroughs. (2)He was interviewed bya newspaper reporter who asked him why he was so much more creative than theaverage person; what set him so far apart from others?③He responded that, in his opinion, it all came from an experience with hismother that occurred when he was about two years old. (3)He had been trying toriove a bottle of milk from the refrigerator when he lost his grip on theslippery bottle and it fell, spilling its contents all over the kitchen floor -a veritable sea of milk!④When his mother came into the kitchen, instead of yelling at him, giving him alecture, or punishing him, she said," (4)Robert, what a great and wonderful messyou have made! I have rarely seen such a huge puddle of milk. Well, the damagehas already been done. Would you like to get down and play in the milk for a fewminutes before we clean it up?"⑤Indeed, he did. After a few minutes, his mother said，"You know, Robert,whenever you make a mess like this, eventually you have to clean it up andrestore everything to its proper order. So, how would you like to do that? Wecould use a sponge, a towel, or a mop. Which do you prefer?" he chose the spongeand together they cleaned up the spilt milk.⑥His mother then said, "You know, what we have here is a failed experiment inhow to effectively carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands.Let's go out inthe back yard and fill the bottle with water and see if you can discover a wayto carry it without dropping it."
