The short clauses give the impression that the processes are finished rapidly, thus showing Caesar’s pride and arrogance.2. Some were decorous:old people in long stiff robes of mauve and grey, grave master workmen, quiet, merry women carrying their babies and chatting as they walked.A loose sentence puts the major idea first and then the illustration. Such a sentence is easy to grasp. It can produce direct and clear effect.Here following “some were decorous”, we have a lot of attributive and modifying elements following it. This structure can make the description detailed and complete, dragging the listener himself into the scene.V.Identify the figures of speech in the following sentence. (2%*10=20%)1.It has the poorest millionaire, the littlest great men, the haughtiest beggars, the plainest beauties, the lowest sky-scrapers, the dolefulest pleasures of any town I ever saw.

With the rapid growth of the global population and the depletion of natural resources, it is crucial to find ways to balance economic growth with environmental protection. One of the most significant challenges in achieving this balance is the issue of waste management.Traditional waste management methods, such as landfilling and incineration, have proven to be ineffective and environmentally harmful. These methods contribute to air and water pollution, as well as the release of greenhouse gases. As a result, many countries have turned to more sustainable practices, such as recycling and composting.Recycling is the process of converting waste materials into new products. It not only reduces the amount of waste that ends up in landfills but also conserves natural resources. Composting, on the other hand,involves the decomposition of organic waste into nutrient-rich soil.This process helps to reduce methane emissions and provides a valuable resource for agriculture.Despite the benefits of these sustainable practices, challenges remain. One of the main issues is the lack of awareness and participation among the general public. Many people are not aware of the importance of recycling and composting, and those who are often do not take the necessary steps to participate in these programs.Another challenge is the infrastructure required to support recyclingand composting. Proper facilities and collection systems need to be in place to ensure that waste is properly processed. Additionally, the cost of implementing these programs can be significant, and funding can be a barrier to their success.Questions:16. What is the main challenge mentioned in the passage regarding waste management?a) Lack of fundingb) Lack of infrastructurec) Lack of awareness and participationd) Lack of proper facilities17. Why are traditional waste management methods considered environmentally harmful?a) They contribute to air and water pollution.b) They are expensive to implement.c) They require a lot of labor.d) They are not efficient in reducing waste.18. What is the primary purpose of recycling?a) To reduce the amount of waste in landfills.b) To create jobs in the waste management industry.c) To provide a source of income for the government.d) To reduce methane emissions.Section 4: Writing (20% of total score)Instructions: Write a short essay (200-300 words) on the following topic:Describe the importance of sustainable development in today’s world. How can individuals and communities contribute to the achievement of sustainable goals?Your Answer:[Your essay goes here, discussing the importance of sustainable development and providing examples of how individuals and communities can contribute to its achievement.]。

高中英语文学体裁练习题30题答案解析版

高中英语文学体裁练习题30题答案解析版1. In "Jane Eyre", the detailed descriptions of the protagonist's inner thoughts and her long - term life experiences are typical of which literary genre?A. DramaB. PoetryC. Novel答案解析:C。

小说(Novel)的特点之一是能够对人物的内心想法进行详细的描写,并且可以叙述较长时间段内的人物经历等。

在《简·爱》中,对主角内心想法有诸多细致的刻画,也讲述了她较长的人生经历,这符合小说的特点。

戏剧(Drama)主要侧重于人物对话和舞台表演相关的内容,诗歌 Poetry)则更注重韵律、意象等,不太会有如此详细的人物内心和长时间经历的描写,所以A和B不符合。

2. "To be, or not to be - that is the question" is a famous line from "Hamlet", which is mainly in what literary genre?A. NovelB. PoetryC. Drama答案解析:C。

《哈姆雷特》是著名的戏剧作品。

戏剧 Drama)以人物对话推动情节发展,“To be, or not to be - that is the question”这样的经典台词就是通过人物对话表达出来的。

小说(Novel)虽然也有对话,但整体结构和表现形式与戏剧不同,小说更多是叙述性的文字。

诗歌 Poetry)虽然也可能有戏剧独白式的表达,但从《哈姆雷特》的整体形式看,它是戏剧作品,所以A和B错误。

3. Which literary genre often uses a lot of stanzas and rhymes?A. NovelB. DramaC. Poetry答案解析:C。

Literary criticism is an attempt to evaluate and understand the
creative writing, the literature of an author. Literature includes plays,
essays, novels, poetry, and short stories. Literary criticism is a
description, analysis, evaluation, or interpretation of a particular
literary work or an author's writings as a whole. Literary criticism is
usually expressed in the form of a critical essay. In-depth book
reviews are also sometimes viewed as literary criticism.
3)Why should we make discourse analysis? (10%)
Discourse analysis (DA), or discourse studies, is a general term for a number of approaches to analyzing written, spoken, signed language use or any significant semiotic event.
The objects of discourse analysis —discourse, writing, conversation, communicative event, etc.—are variously defined in terms of coherent sequences of sentences, propositions, speech acts or turns-at-talk. Contrary to much of traditional linguistics, discourse analysts not only study language use 'beyond the sentence boundary', but also prefer to analyze 'naturally occurring' language use, and not invented examples. This is known as corpus linguistics; text linguistics is related. The essential difference between discourse analysis and text linguistics is that it aims at revealing socio-psychological characteristics of a person/persons rather than text structure.[1]
Discourse analysis has been taken up in a variety of social science disciplines, including linguistics, sociology, anthropology, social work, cognitive psychology, social psychology, international relations, human geography, communication studies and translation studies, each of which is subject to its own assumptions, dimensions of analysis, and methodologies.
