注:考试大纲、词汇选项部分均未发生变化第十五篇:A Memory Drug?(A级)It’s difficult to imagine many things that people would welcome more than a memory- enhancing drug. 1 Furthermore, such a drug could help people remember past experiences more clearly and help us acquire new information more easily for school and at work. As scientists learn more about memory, we are closing in on this tantalizing goal. 1 __________Some of the most exciting evidence comes from research that has built on earlier finding,, linking LTP2 and memory to identify a gene that improves memory in mice. 2 __________Mice bred to have extra copies of this gene showed more activity in their NMDA receptors, more LTP, and improved performance on several different memory tasks -- learning a spatial layout3, recognizing familiar objects, and recalling a fear-inducing shock.If these basic insights about genes, LTP, and the synaptic basis of memory can be translated to people- and that remains to be seen -- they could pave the way for memory-enhancing treatments. 3__________ As exciting as this may sound, it also raises troubling issues. Consider the potential educational implications of memory-enhancing drugs. If memory enhancers were available, children who used them might be able to acquire and retain extraordinary amounts of information, allowing them to progress far more rapidly in school than they could otherwise.How well could the brain handle such an onslaught of information? What happens to children who don't have access to the latest memory enhancers? Are they left behind in school -- and as a result handicapped later in life?4__________ Imagine that you are applying for a job that requires a good memory, such as a manager at a technology company or a sales position that requires remembering customers' names as well as the attributes of different products and services. Would you take a memory-enhancing drug to increase your chances of landing the position? Would people who felt uncomfortable taking such a drug find themselves cut out of lucrative career opportunities?Memory drugs might also help take the sting out of disturbing memories that we wish we could forget but can't. The 2004 hit movie Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind told the story of a young man seeking just such freedom from the painful memories of a romantic breakup. As you will see in the section on persistence later in the chapter, emotionally arousing events often create intrusive memories, and researchers have already muted emotional memories with drugs that block the action of key hormones. Should emergency workers who must confront horrifying accident scenes that can burden them with persisting memories be provided with such drugs? Should such drugs be given to rape victims who can't forget the trauma? Memory drugs might provide some relief to such individuals. But could they also interfere with an individual's ability to assimilate and come to terms with a difficult experience? 5 __________注释:1.As scientists learn more about memory,we are closing in on this tantalizing goal.随着科学家们对记忆了解增多,我们正接近这一诱人的目标。

从~职称英语考试变化趋势看备考
从~职称英语考试变化趋势看备考从2013~2015年职称英语考试变化趋势看2016年备考2016年职称英语考试报名即将开始,各位老师也对历年考试进行了分析,并对2013到2015年的考试真题进行了纵向比较,找出职称英语考试变化的脉络,帮助大家更好地备战2016年职称英语考试。
众所周知,2013年开始,职称英语考试持续了十几年的“传统”开始出现了变革的先兆。
2013年考试总体上来说,跟之前十几年的考试没有多大的不同,仍然是在教材选一篇阅读理解原文和一篇完形填空,因为很多培训机构找准这样的出题原则,基本上都能押中考题。
可以说考生只要轻轻一努力就能通过考试。
但是2013年的考试出现了一个新的变化,就是新增文章不再“受宠”。
之前的考试大部分会在新增文章里面出题,2013年新增文章的考查明显减少了。
这是为了让考试能够真正考查出大家的能力,职称英语开始出现变革的需求。
随着变革需求的加大,2014年是职称英语考试出现巨变的一年,也是难度最大的一年,因为考试不再出原题,哪些把希望寄托在押题身上的考生,这一年遭受重创。
2014职称英语考试,看似是一次大地震,推翻了职称英语十多年的考试模式与考试规律。
但是透过现象看本质,这只是换了一件崭新的衣服,考点还是一样的考点,技巧还是一样的技巧。
没有“原文原题型”,并不是没有来自教材“原文”,它来自原文是将教材补全短文的文章放到了完形填空来考;教材中的完型填空转换到了阅读理解题;教材中的概括大意与完成句子题放到了阅读理解来考;教材中的`阅读理解转成了完型填空!这就好像是将教材中的所有文章放到了一个大转盘上,抽中了它在考试中是什么题型就是什么题型!对于掌握了职称英语解题能力的考生来说,根本没有影响。
而只靠押题和蒙题技巧的考生来说,整个人都不好了。
而刚刚结束的2015年考试,延续2014年的考试变化方式,题型打乱,跨级别考查。
比如:综合A类阅读判断IsThereaWaytoKeeptheBritain’sEconomyGrowing?【有促进英国经济增长的办法吗?】【出自综合教材概括大意与完成句子文章第十一篇】。
2013年职称英语(卫生类A级)新增文章译文及解析 最新版
2013年职称英语(卫生类A级)新增阅读理解和完形填空中英文对照及解析阅读理解A级第三十九篇Sauna参考译文第三十九篇桑拿浴Ceremonial bathing has existed for thousands of years and has many forms, one of which is the sauna. The Finns have perfected the steam bath,or sauna, which may be taken, usually in an enclosed room, by pouring water over hot rocks or as a dry heat bath. The Japanese, Greeks, Turks and Russians as well as Native Americans have forms of the sweat bath in their bathing rituals. Dry heat and steam baths had advocates in ancient Rome and' pre-Columbian Americans used sweat lodges.仪式性的沐浴已经有几千年的历史,并且有多种形式,其中的一种就是桑拿浴。
芬兰人完善了蒸汽浴,也就是桑拿浴。
它可以在一个封闭的房间里将水浇在滚烫的石头上,或是一种干热浴。
日本人、希腊人、土耳其人、俄国人以及美洲土著人在他们的沐浴传统中都有发汗浴这一形式。
用干热浴发汗的方式是古罗马优先使用的,而哥伦布发现美洲大陆前的美洲人则使用发汗小屋。
The earliest saunas were probably underground caves heated by a fire that naturally filled with smoke as chimney making was unknown at that time. A fire kept in a fire-pit would heat the rock walls of the cave. After reaching full heat, the smoke was let out of the cave and the stones would retain heat for several hours. A few people today say that the smoke sauna, “ savusauna”,is the only true sauna experience and that all saunas should have at least a background odor or smoke. Today most saunas use electric stoves, although gas and wood-burning stoves are available.最早的桑拿浴很有可能是在地下山洞里。

We may be able to hang on to most of that youthful vigor even if we don‟t start to diet until old age.Stephen Spindler and his colleagues from the University of California at Riverside have found that some of an elderly mouse‟s liver genes can be made to behave as they did when the mouse was young simply by limiting its food for four weeks. The genetic rejuvenation won‟t reverse other damage caused by time for the mouse, but could help its liver metabolize drugs or get rid of toxins.Spindler‟s team fed three mice a normal diet for their whole lives, and fed another three on half-rations3. Three more mice were switched from the normal diet to half-feed3 for a month when they were 34 months old — equivalent to about 70 human years.The researchers checked the activity of 11,000 genes from the mouse livers, and found that 46 changed with age in the normally fed mice. The changes were associated with things like inflammation and free radical production一probably bad news for mouse health. In the mice that had dieted all their lives,27 of those 46 genes continued to behave like young genes. But the most surprising finding was that the mice that only started dieting in old age also benefited from 70 per cent of these gene changes."This is the first indication that these effects kick in pretty quickly,” says Huber Warner from the National Institute on Aging near Washington D. C.No one yet knows if calorie restriction works in people as it does in mice, but Spindler is hopeful. “There‟s attracting and tempting evidence out there that it will work,” he says.If it does work in people,there might be good reasons for rejuvenating the liver. As we get older, our bodies are less efficient at metabolizing drugs, for example. A brief period of time of dieting, says Spindler, could be enough to make sure a drug is effective.But Spindler isn‟t sure the trade-off is worth it. “The mice get less disease, they liv e longer, but they‟re hungry,” he says. “Even seeing what a diet does, it‟s still hard to go to a restaurant and say: …I can only eat half of that,. ”Spindler hopes we soon won‟t need to diet at all. His company, Lifespan Genetics in California, is looking for drugs that have the effects of calorie restriction.词汇:meager adj.不足的youthful adj.有青春活力的vigor n.精力,活力metabolize vt. 使(一种物质)进入新陈代谢过程genetic adj.基因的rejuvenation n.恢复活力,返老还童注释:1. hang on to :继续保留。
2013中石油职称英语考试课文详解
1.The Value of Time时间的价值1."Time" says the proverb "is money". This means that every moment well-spent may put some money into our pockets. If our time is usefully employed, it will either produce some useful and important piece of work which will fetch its price in the market, or it will add to our experience and increase our capacities so as to enable us to earn money when the proper opportunity comes. There can thus be no doubt that time is convertible into money. Let those who think nothing of wasting time remember this; let them remember that an hour misspent is equivalent to the loss of a banknote; and that an hour utilized is tantamount to so much silver or gold; and then they will probably think twice before they give their consent to the loss of any part of their time.1.employ v. 使用,采用,雇佣,使忙于employer n. 雇主,老板employee n. 雇员,从业人员employment n. 使用,职业,雇佣Employment rate 就业率,雇用率2.Either …or… 要么…要么…; 二者择一的Neither… nor… 两者都不Both… and… 两者都3.fetch 取来,接来,到达4.add to增添,添加,加强5.so as to 以便,以致6.enable sb to do sth 使得某人做某事7.There is no doubt that…毫无疑问8.think nothing of… 把… 视为平常think a lot of… 看重;对… 高度评价9.convertible adj. 可改变的,可交换的convert v. … into… 使转变,转换,使…改变信仰10. be equivalent to…11. be tantamount to…相当于…; 无异于的If you say one thing is tantamount to another, more serious thing, you are emphasizing how bad, unacceptable, or unfortunate the first thing is by comparing it to the second thing.例句:What Bracey is saying is tantamount to heresy. 布里斯正在说的无异于异端邪说。

2013职称英语综合类教材新增内容2013职称英语综合类教材新增内容:阅读判断第十二篇第十二篇 Starting a New TraditionShantelle Davis is a nine-year-old girl in New York. On a cold night in December, her family is standing around the kitchen table while she lights a candle. The table is decorated with baskets of fruits and vegetables and ears of com for Shantelle and her two brothers.“This candle represents umoja, an African word that means being together,”Shantelle says. “That's the most important thing for a family. ”Tonight is the first night of Kwanzaa, and Shantelle is spending the holiday with her family. More than 5 million African Americans celebrate Kwanzaa every year from December 26 until January I. It's a time when they get together with their families to think about their history and their ancestors in Africa.Kwanzaa is very unusual because it was started by one man. In 1966, an American named Maulana Karenga wanted a holiday for African-Americans to honor their culture and traditions. So he used words and customs from Africa to create a new celebration. He took the name Kwanzaa from the words for “first fruits” in Swahili, an African language. At first, a few American families had small celebrations at home. Now there are also Kwanzaa events in schools and public places, and Kwanzaa has spread to other countries like Canada and Jamaica.The main symbol of Kwanzaa is a candleholder with seven candles, one for each of the principles of Kwanzaa. Each night, a family member lights one of the candles and talks about the idea it represents: being together, being yourself, helping each other, sharing, having a goal, creating, and believing. The candles are red, black, and green, the colors of Kwanzaa. The parents also pour drinks to honor family members who have died. On the last night of Kwanzaa, there is a big dinner with African food, and children receive small presents.Today people can buy Kwanzaa greeting cards and special Kwanzaa clothes. Stores sell Kwanzaa candles and candleholders. Some people don't believe that Kwanzaa is a real holiday, because it's so new. But other people say that customs and celebrations are always changing and that Kwanzaa shows what is important in people's lives.Shantelle Davis says she likes Kwanzaa because it's fun. “But I also learn new things every year," she says.词汇:ancestor n.祖宗,祖先be decorated with 由……所装饰honor vt. 尊敬,使荣幸; n.荣誉,尊敬ears of com玉米穗candleholder n.烛台注释:1.

名师解读2013年职称英语考试教材文章变化
名师解读2013年职称英语考试教材文章变化2013年全国专业技术人员职称外语等级考试时间为2013年3月30日,其中包括一个元旦假期和一个春节长假,对于考生来说时间已经非常紧迫了。
123职称英语网名师张娇老师说时间紧任务重,对于2013年职称英语考生来说又是一次重大考验,因为纵观新教材,与2012年相比,阅读理解和完型填空文章做了少量的更新,阅读判断和概括大意与完成句子两个题型有较少量变化,词汇选项和补全短文题型文章未做更新。
一、新教材内容变化内容及数量【职称英语三个类别(综合类、理工类、卫生类)】1.职称英语三个类别中的词汇选项、补全短文这两个题型的文章篇目均未作任何改变,与2012年职称英语教材文章一致;2 职称英语三个类别中的阅读理解题型文章均有变化:1) 综合类更新了2篇文章,仅是C类新增2篇文章(与2012年相比);2)理工类和卫生类均更新3篇文章:①理工类C级更新2篇,理工类A级更新1篇,理工类B级无更新;②卫生类每个级别更新1篇(与2012年相比);3)综合类:C级2012年已考文章均未删减;理工类:B级和A级2012年已考文章均未删减;卫生类:A、B、C三个级别2012年已考文章均未删减;3.职称英语三个类别中的完型填空文章变化情况:①综合类:无更新(但2012年已考文章均未删减)②理工类:更新3篇(C级2篇,A级1篇)③卫生类:更新3篇文章,每个级别各更新1篇文章。
(但B级和A级里2012年已考文章均未删减)⒋职称英语三个类别中的阅读判断题型文章变化:①综合类:C级和B级均各更新一篇;②理工类和卫生类:均未更新;5、职称英语三个类别中的概括大意与完成句子文章变化:①综合类:仅C级更新一篇;②理工类和卫生类:均未更新;二、 2013年职称英语国家指定教材较2012年职称英语教材变化主要体现在以下4个方面:1.2013年职称英语教材较2012年教材中的文章的选材更贴近生活,同时文章内容也涉及社会热点问题。
2013年全国英语学科新课标版《考试大纲》、《考试说明》解读及复习建议[五篇材料]
2013年全国英语学科新课标版《考试大纲》、《考试说明》解读及复习建议[五篇材料]第一篇:2013年全国英语学科新课标版《考试大纲》、《考试说明》解读及复习建议安徽省2013年高考英语新课标版《考试大纲》、《考试说明》解读及复习建议一、《考试大纲》2013年全国新课标版《考试大纲》英语学科与2012年的《考试大纲》相比,在考试内容和要求、时间、分值、题型题量等方面都没有发生变化。
词汇量要求仍为3500左右(各省、自治区或直辖市可以根据本地实际情况在考试说明中对词汇量进行适当调整,但是不得低于2500个单词;同时,应该制定计划,在一定时间内分期、分批增加至3500个单词)。
基于考生的实际情况,《考纲说明》将《考试大纲》附录词汇表单词量压缩到了3000个左右,作为高考命题的词汇范围,并为命题需要增加了个别带星号的、仅要求考生知道其意思的单词。
《考试大纲》中对考生的语言运用能力(听力,阅读理解,写作)考查标准无变化。
试卷形式、结构以及参考试卷等均无变化,说明2013年全国课标版试卷的命制将在总体上和思路上与2012年高考试卷保持一致。
2013年高考英语考试的题型仍包括听力、英语知识运用、阅读理解和写作四大类型,分别考查考生对英语基础知识的掌握和运用情况及英语听、读、写几方面的能力。
二、《考试说明》——“命题词汇范围增加100个”变化解读1、英语科目最新的变化体现在对词汇量的要求上。
2012年考试说明显示,高考命题词汇范围在3000个左右,今年则提升到3100个左右,并在附录词汇表中增加了50个新词。
仔细研究这些词汇,我们会发现这些新增词汇生活气息很浓,实用性很强,比如说awesome这个词在口语中就可以表示“太棒了,了不起”的意思,再比如aggressive这个词现在常用来形容一个人有进取心,有冲劲,buffet自助餐,corrupt 腐败的,radiation辐射等这些新增词反映了今年高考对考生语言运用能力和表达能力提出了新的要求。
2013年职称英语考试教材新增文章目录及内容汇总(综合类)
2013年职称英语考试教材新增文章目录及内容汇总(综合类)2013年教材整体变化不大。
具体变化如下:13年教材更加贴近生活,体现新闻、报纸热点,文章内容的专业倾向更明显。
对12年新增的文章进行保留的同时,12年已考的文章依然被保留,如:综合类阅读“The Changing Middle Class”,“Going Her Own Way” 。
2013综合教材阅读判断新增文章第一篇文章及解析译文阅读下面的短文。
每篇短文后面都有7句话,请根据短文的内容判断这些话是正确、错误,还是在短文中没有提到。
第一篇Taking Pictures of the WorldMeet Annie Griffiths Belt, a National Geographic photographer. Belt has worked for National Geographic since 1978,and has taken pictures on almost every continent in the world. In fact, Antarctica is the only continent Belt hasn't seen yet. Belt's photographs are well known for their beauty and high quality. They also reflect very different cultures and regions of the world. Belt has photographed the ancient city of Petra, Jordan, as well as the green landscapes of the Lake District in England. Recently,her pictures appeared in a book about undeveloped natural places in North America.Everywhere that Belt goes, she takes pictures of people. Belt has found ways to connect with people of all ages and nationalities even when she does not speak their languag e. “ The greatest privilege of my job is being allowed into peopled lives,” she has said. “The camera is like a passport, and I am often overwhelmed by1 how quickly people welcome me!”Knowing how to break the ice has helped to make Belt a successful photographer, but experts say that anyone can learn to connect with new people. When people speak the same language, greetings and small talk can make strangers feel more comfortable with each other. When people don't speak the same language, a smile is very helpful. Having something in common can also help break the ice. For example, Belt has traveled with her two children, so when she takes pictures of children or their parents,they all have that family connection in common. Even bad weather can help people to connect when they are experiencing it together.Belt has some advice if you are thinking about a career in photography. You can volunteer to take pictures for a local organization that can't afford to hire a professional photographer. You can also take a good, honest look at your best photographs. If you're a real photographer, your photos are good because of your personal and technical skills. Belt also recommends studying and learning from photos taken by professional photographers.Remember, the next time you look at a beautiful photograph, you might be looking at the work of Annie Griffiths Belt. And the next time you meet a new person, don't be afraid to break the ice. The connection you make could be very rewarding.词汇:landscape n.风景,风景画rewarding adj.值得的,有益的,有报酬的privilege n.特权,优惠nationality n 国籍,民族think about 考虑overwhelm vt. 征服;使受不了,使不知所措注释:1. I am often overwhelmed by ...我常常被……搞得不知所措。

He looked down and was terrified to see a great white shark biting the front of his board. “I could have touched its eye with my elbow,”says Craig. The shark had surfaced so quietly that he hadn’t heard a thing.In his horror and confusion,he waved his arms and accidentally cut two of his fingers on the shark’s teeth. He then slid off the opposite side of his surfboard into the water. Then, with Craig in the water and blood flowing from his fingers,the five-meter-long shark simply swam away, disappearing into the water below.Although sharks are often categorized as killers that hunt and eat as many humans as they can, this is factually inaccurate. Sharks very rarely kill humans. A person has a greater chance of being struck by lightning or drowning in a bath than of being killed by a shark. Only 74 people have been reported killed by great whites in the last century. But great white sharks can reach six meters in length and weigh 2,200 kilograms or more. With frightening jaws that can hold up to 3,000 teeth arranged in several rows,they could very easily kill and eat a helpless human in the water. Why is it, then, that most people survive attacks by great whites? Shark researchers are trying to comprehend the reasons that allow people to escape without being eaten.The most common explanation is that great whites don’t see well. It has been thought that they mistake people for the seals or sea lions which make up a large part of their diet. There is reason to doubt this,however. Recent information shows that great whites can actually see very well. Also,when attacking seals, great whites shoot up to the surface and bite with great force. When approaching humans, however, they most often move in slowly and bite less hard. They soon discover that humans are not a high —fat meal. “They spit us out because we’re too bony,”says Aidan Martin,director of Reef Quest Center for Shark Research.Shark researchers like Martin hypothesize that great whites are actually curious animals that like to investigate things. It’s possible that they use their bite not only to kill and eat, but also to gather information. Although such an experience is unlucky for people like Craig Rogers, when sharks bite surfboards or other objects or people,they are likely just trying to learn what they are.词汇:scan vt审视,细看,浏览elbow n.肘,肘部surface n, 表面,外表;vi.浮出水面,浮现drown vi.淹死,溺死注释:1. ... cut two of his fingers on the shark’s teeth.被鲨鱼咬掉了两个指头。

2013职称英语卫生类教材新增内容:阅读理解第十六篇第十六篇Eat to LiveA meager diet may give you health and long life, but it‟s not much fun — and it might not even be necessary. We may be able to hang on to most of that youthful vigoreven if we don‟t start to diet until old a ge.Stephen Spindler and his colleagues from the University of California at Riverside have found that some of an elderly mouse’s liver genes can be made to behave asthey did when the mouse was young simply by limiting its food for four weeks. The gene tic rejuvenation won‟t reverse other damage caused by time for the mouse, butcould help its liver metabolize drugs or get rid of toxins.Spindler’s team fed three mice a normal diet for their whole lives, and fed another three on half-rations3. Three more mice were switched from the normal diet tohalf-feed3 for a month when they were 34 months old — equivalent to about 70 human years.The researchers checked the activity of 11,000 genes from the mouse livers, and found that 46 changed with age in the normally fed mice. The changes wereassociated with things like inflammation and free radical production一probably bad news for mouse health. In the mice that had dieted all their lives,27 of those 46genes continued to behave like young genes. But the most surprising finding was that the mice that only started dieting in old age also benefited from 70 per cent ofthese gene changes."This is the first indication that these effects kick in pretty quickly,”says Huber Warner from the National Institute on Aging near Washington D. C.No one yet knows if calorie restriction works in people as it does in mice, but Spindler is hopeful. “There’s attracting and tempting evidence out there that itwill work,” he says.If it does work in people,there might be good reasons for rejuvenating the liver. As we get older, our bodies are less efficient at metabolizing drugs, forexample. A brief period of time of dieting, says Spindler, could be enough to make sure a drug is effective.But Spindler isn’t sure the trade-off is worth it. “The mice get less disease, they live longer, but they’re hungry,”he says. “Even seeing what a diet does,it‟s still hard to go to a restaurant and say: …I can only eat half of that,. ”Spindler hopes we soon won’t need to diet at all. His company, Lifespan Genetics in California, is looking for drugs that have the effects of calorie restriction.词汇:meager adj.不足的youthful adj.有青春活力的vigor n.精力,活力metabolize vt. 使(一种物质)进入新陈代谢过程genetic adj.基因的rejuvenation n.恢复活力,返老还童注释:1. hang on to :继续保留。

名师解读2013年职称英语考试教材文章变化
2013年全国专业技术人员职称外语等级考试时间为2013年3月30日,其中包括一个元旦假期和一个春节长假,对于考生来说时间已经非常紧迫了。
123职称英语网名师张娇老师说时间紧任务重,对于2013年职称英语考生来说又是一次重大考验,因为纵观新教材,与2012年相比,阅读理解和完型填空文章做了少量的更新,阅读判断和概括大意与完成句子两个题型有较少量变化,词汇选项和补全短文题型文章未做更新。
一、新教材内容变化内容及数量【职称英语三个类别(综合类、理工类、卫生类)】
1.职称英语三个类别中的词汇选项、补全短文这两个题型的文章篇目均未作任何改变,与2012年职称英语教材文章一致;
2 职称英语三个类别中的阅读理解题型文章均有变化:
1) 综合类更新了2篇文章,仅是C类新增2篇文章(与2012年相比);
2)理工类和卫生类均更新3篇文章:
①理工类C级更新2篇,理工类A级更新1篇,理工类B级无更新;
②卫生类每个级别更新1篇(与2012年相比);
3)综合类:C级2012年已考文章均未删减;
理工类:B级和A级2012年已考文章均未删减;
卫生类:A、B、C三个级别2012年已考文章均未删减;
3.职称英语三个类别中的完型填空文章变化情况:
①综合类:无更新(但2012年已考文章均未删减)
②理工类:更新3篇(C级2篇,A级1篇)
③卫生类:更新3篇文章,每个级别各更新1篇文章。
(但B级和A级里2012年已考文章均未删减)
⒋职称英语三个类别中的阅读判断题型文章变化:
①综合类:C级和B级均各更新一篇;
②理工类和卫生类:均未更新;
5、职称英语三个类别中的概括大意与完成句子文章变化:
①综合类:仅C级更新一篇;
②理工类和卫生类:均未更新;
二、 2013年职称英语国家指定教材较2012年职称英语教材变化主要体现在以下4个方面:
1.2013年职称英语教材较2012年教材中的文章的选材更贴近生活,同时文章内容也涉及社会热点问题。
如:
综合类---“How We Form First Impression”
理工类---“When Our Eyes Serve Our Stomach”
卫生类---“Young Adults Who Exercise Get Higher IQ Scores”
这些话题都是来自我们平时的生活中。
另外一些文章是我们在新闻、报纸中都略有所闻等社会关注的热点话题,如:
综合类“US Signs Global Tobacco Treaty”
理工类“Better Solar Energy Systems: More Heat, More Light”
卫生类“”Don’t Drink Alone” Gets New Meaning”
2.2012年已考的文章依然被保留在了2012年的国家制定教材中,如:
综合类阅读“The Changing Middle Class”,“Going Her Own Way”
理工类阅读“Small But Wise”
●卫生类阅读“Eat Healthy”,“Some People Do Not Taste Salt Like Others”
3. 2012年国家教材里的部分文章在2013年国家教材里被放在了另外一个类别里,如:
综合类阅读 2012年国家教材C级的“Eat to Live”,在2013年国家制定教材里是卫生类A 级
理工类完形填空2012年国家教材C级“A Biological Clock”,在2013年国家教材里是卫生类A级
●卫生类阅读2012年国家教材C级“Dreams”, 在2013年国家教材里是卫生类A级
4. 文章内容的专业倾向更明显。
在2013年教材中理工和卫生类的新增文章来看,都增加了各自专业的文章,使三个类别的文章内容的专业性更加突出。
理工类
Giant Structures
Better Solar Energy Systems: More Heat, More Light
卫生类
A Biological Clock
The Case of the Disappearing Fingerprints
Young Adults Who Exercise Get Higher IQ Scores
5. 还有一些文章题材比较新颖,标题口语化,这也是2013年教材新增文章变化的一大特点。
综合类
Taking Pictures of the World
How We Form First Impression
卫生类
Eat to live
Sauna
从上面的五个变化来分析,2013年职称英语新教材在阅读理解、完形填空、阅读判断、概括大意与完成句子四大题型的文章有所变化,选择的题材更具有时代感、专业性,并加大了社会关注度,这在某种程度上来看,增加了考试的难度,说明随着职称教材文章选材的不断提高与丰富,需要考生在备考过程中,不但需要掌握和了解教材中除本类别外的更多文章内容,同时掌握更多的解题技巧,才能“以不变应万变”。
