A. 求初中英語閱讀文章 (原文+翻譯)
1.Learning:A Lifelong Career【學習:一生的事業】
As food is to the body, so is learning to the mind. Our bodies grow and muscles develop with the intake of adequate nutritious food. Likewise, we should keep learning day by day to maintain our keen mental power and expand our intellectual capacity. Constant learning supplies us with inexhaustible fuel for driving us to sharpen our power of reasoning, analysis, and judgment. Learning incessantly is the surest way to keep pace with the times in the information age, and an infallible warrant of success in times of uncertainty.
Once learning stops, vegetation sets in. It is a common fallacy to regard school as the only workshop for the acquisition of knowledge. On the contrary, learning should be a never-ending process, from the cradle to the grave. With the world ever changing so fast, the cease from learning for just a few days will make a person lag behind. What's worse, the animalistic instinct dormant deep in our subconsciousness will come to life, weakening our will to pursue our noble ideal, sapping our determination to sweep away obstacles to our success and strangling our desire for the refinement of our character. Lack of learning will inevitably lead to the stagnation of the mind, or even worse, its fossilization, Therefore, to stay mentally young, we have to take learning as a lifelong career.
學習之於心靈,就像食物之於身體一樣。攝取了適量的營養食物,我們的身體得以生長而肌肉得以發達。同樣地,我們應該日復一日不斷地學習以保持我們敏銳的心智能力,並擴充我們的智力容量。不斷的學習提供我們用不盡的燃料,來驅使我們磨利我們的推理、分析和判斷的能力。持續的學習是在信息時代中跟時代並駕齊驅的最穩當的方法,也是在變動的世代中成功的可靠保證。
一旦學習停止,單調貧乏的生活就開始了。視學校為汲取知識的唯一場所是種常見的謬誤。相反地,學習應該是一種無終止的歷程,從生到死。由於世界一直快速地在變動,只要學習停頓數日就將使人落後。更糟的是,蟄伏在我們潛意識深處的獸性本能就會復活,削弱我們追求高貴理想的意志,弱化我們掃除成功障礙的決心,而且扼殺我們凈化我們人格的慾望。缺少學習將不可避免地導致心靈的停滯,甚至更糟地,使其僵化。因此,為了保持心理年輕,我們必須將學習當作一生的事業。
2.heavy shoolwork【課業繁重】
In my opinion, the schoolwork now being assigned to high school students is too heavy. While it is true that students need to study, they need other things as well if they are to grow into healthy and well-rounded alts. High should be allowed more time for play. Plying is not wasting time, as some think. It gives them physical exercise, and also exercise their imagination. Which tends to be stifled by too much study. Finally, the pressure put on high school students by excessive schoolwork can cause serious stress, which is unhealthy physically and mentally. I do not advocate the elimination of schoolwork. I do think, however, that a rection of the current heavy load would be beneficial to students and to the society as a whole.
我認為目前高中生的課業實在太重了,雖然說學生的確應當念書,但是要想長大成為健全的人,他門還需要一些其它的東西,所以應該給高中生較多從事娛樂的時間。娛樂並不如某些人所想的,是在浪費時間,它可以讓學生鍛煉身體,發揮被繁重課業扼殺的想像力。此外,繁重的課業加諸在高中生身上的壓力可能引起嚴重的情緒緊張,這對身心都有害。我並非主張廢除學校課業,但是我認為減輕目前繁重的課業對於學生和整個社會都是有益的。
3.Time【時間】
Lost time is never found again. This is something which I learned very clearly last semester. I spent so much time fooling around that my grades began to suffer. I finally realized that something had to be done. It was time for a change.
Now I have a new plan for using my time wisely. I have set my alarm clock ahead half an hour. This will give me a head start on the day. I have also decided to keep a log of what I do and when I do it. Looking back on what I』ve done will give me some ideas on how to reorganize my time.
時光一去不復返,這是我上學期清楚學到的教訓。我浪費很多時間四處游盪,以致於我的成績開始退步。最後我終於了解到我必須有所作為;該是痛改前非的時候了。
現在我有一個明智運用時間的新方法。我已將鬧鍾早撥半小時,這將使我這一天的作息提前開始。我也決定將我所做的一切及做這些事的時間記錄下來。回顧我所做的事情會啟發我如何重新安排我的時間。
4.Work and Play【工作與娛樂】
Work and play do not contradict each other; in fact, they complement each other. As the saying goes, "All work and no play makes Jack a ll boy." A life burdened with work leads you nowhere, for you would get tired and bored with your daily routine work. On the other hand, proper recreation will relieve the tension and discomfort of our monotonous life because it offers you various ways to let out your pent-up emotions.
What I usually do to relax after school is jogging and seeing movies. Usually I don't spare time for exercise, but I value the physical ecation class at school. Jogging several rounds in the field certainly relieves the day's pressure. On weekends, I'll catch the morning movie for my visual enjoyment. I feel revived and energetic for another week's work-load.
工作與娛樂並不互相沖突,事實上,它們之間的關系還相輔相成。有句格言說:「整日工作而沒有休閑娛樂,會令人變得沉悶乏味。」被工作重擔壓得喘不過氣來的生活,將使你一事無成,因為你將對一成不變的例行公事感到厭煩。由另一方面來說,適度的娛樂活動能提供各種管道,來渲泄你被壓抑的情緒,減輕單調生活中的緊張與不悅。
放學之後,我最常做的休閑活動,便是慢跑與看電影。通常我並不特地撥出時間來做運動,但是我很重視學校的體育課。在操場上慢跑幾圈,無疑地可以減輕一天的壓力。在周末時,我都去看早場電影,享受視覺饗宴。如此一來,我將有如再生般的充沛活力,去面對下一星期的工作量。
5.My first Job【我的第一份工作】
My first job was at a cramming school. It was three years ago when I just graated from junior high school and finished the entrance examination. since I had nothing to do that summer, I decided to find a job, tasting the joy of independence.
I was responsible for answering the telephone and taking the message. I worked eight hours a day, six days a week. The work was not difficult nor heavy to me and I guess I did well. The most delighted thing was perhaps that I could spend the money I earned all by myself.
我的第一份工作是在一家補習班做事。那是三年前我剛從國中畢業,考完聯考時的事了。既然我那整個夏天都閑著沒事,倒不如找份差事,嘗嘗獨立賺錢的快樂。
我負責接聽電話且紀錄留言的工作。我一天工作八小時,一星期工作六天。那份工作對我而言既不困難亦不沉重,所以我想我還滿稱職的。而最令人快樂的事大概莫過於花全部由自己賺來的錢了!
6.My Favorite Sports【我最喜愛的運動】
Sports help everyone to keep healthy, happy, and efficient. So I pay special attention to games, especially table-tennis. Table tennis is my favorite game. I play it almost every day.
Table-tennis is an ideal game us because it brings the whole body into action. It strengthens our muscles, expands our lungs, promotes the circulation of the blood, and causes a healthy action of the skin. Besides, it is very amusing and does not cost us much money. Table-tennis is very moderate; it is not so rough as football. It is an indoor game and can be played even on rainy days. Thus, it is my favorite kind of exercise.
運動能幫助每一個人保持健康、快樂和有效率。所以我特別重視運動,特別是撞球,撞球是我最喜歡的運動。我幾乎每天玩。
撞球對我們而言,是一項理想的運動,因為它可以使我們全身運動,它可以增強我們的肌肉,擴張我們的肺部,促進血液循環,並且使肌膚產生健康作用,此外,它很有趣而且所費不多。撞球是相當溫和適中的,它不像足球那麼粗野。它是一種室內運動,甚至在下雨天也能玩。因此,撞球是我最喜愛的一種運動。
7.經過一周的相處,我發現您是一個可愛而風趣的女士。上您的課時我總感覺時間飛逝。不過我還是不太習慣。不同於我們初中的學習方式的是,您總是在課堂上說口語。有時,我會發現您說的很難理解由於很快的語速、很多的生詞。這使我感覺聽課會很困難。對此我有一些建議。我希望您可以在最初的這段時間內,對您所用的生詞多作解釋。這將對我有很大幫助。謝謝。
希望我們能成為好朋友。我相信,以後聽您的課時我們將十分自信與快樂。
I found that you are a lovely and humourous lady after getting along with you for a week. Time flies when I am in your class. However I am not used to your way of teaching. you always speak English in the class, which is different from the way in middle school. Sometimes I found it's difficult to follow you because your fast speed of speach and many new words. Therefore, I have some suggestions. I hope you could explain more about the new words you often use ring this period of time. I think it will be a great help for me. Thanks.
I hope that we can be good friends. I believe that we will be more self-confident and happier in your class.

10.How to Study English Well? 怎樣學好英語?
We all know that English is very useful. Many people in the world speak English. So more and more people in China study it.
How to study English well? I think we must have a good way to study English. If you want to learn English well, listening, speaking, reading and writing are important. You should listen to tapes every day. You should often speak English with your teachers and friends. You should read English every morning. And, you had better keep a diary every day. In this way, you can study English well.
我們都知道英語很有用,世界上有許多人講英語。所以中國也有越來越多的人學英語。
怎樣把英語學好?我想我們必須有一個好的學習英語的方法。如果你想學好英語,聽、說、讀、寫很重要。你應該每天聽磁帶,你應該經常同老師和朋友們講英語,你應該每天早晨讀英語,而且你最好每天記一篇日記。用這種方法,你就能學好英語。
B. 初中英語短篇閱讀(有關科技、學習、生活)
新東方背誦50篇,文章難度不大,短小精悍,設計內容廣泛。應該符合你的要求。自己網上找一下吧,到處都有的。
C. 閱讀英語小說和閱讀英文科技類的文章在閱讀方法上有什麼不同
小說大概知道個意思就行了,就好像有句話說的,只可意會不可言傳一樣,科技性的就不同了,就得看的仔細些,搞懂每個單詞的意思
D. 英語專業的大大們,發一份你們的科技英語閱讀作業,類似於分析一篇2000字的文章的動詞的那種作業
網上一搜索不就全出來了?
E. 什麼網站可以看到適合初中生閱讀的英語文章
一般英語網站都可以啊,進去後找初中部分就可以
F. 閱讀科技類英語原著文章
科技類的我不來懂,不過要理自解文化環境的話,電影是最好的辦法。既然是看科技類的文章還能理解的話,英文的底子應該不錯。第一件事丟掉英漢詞典,那是學習語言的垃圾障礙。查詞只能用英英。我自己一直用的郎文高階。建議看原版英文電影,如果聽力不是太強的,先看有字幕版,第一次大略看,整個通讀理解,第2次逐字逐句抄下來, 然後反復模仿,不光發音,語氣語調全要模仿,就算是怪腔怪調的也不能怕丟臉。這個過程其實很類似瘋狂英語。但是確實行相當之有效。多模仿幾部就能看出效果。後面就可以看一些偏重類的電影或電視節目,網上有軟體可以看到國外電視節目的,或者找找看有沒這類視頻下載。你可以看類似科技咨訊類的節目,同樣是通讀後進行反復模仿。這樣無意識的累積大量的科技類詞彙,並且不是強制的每句都跟中文意思對上號。最重要的是你看字幕的時候,千萬不要去進行翻譯!簡單說,是直接一晃過去腦袋就知道這句話要表達什麼,而不是翻譯成中文,這個是重點!舉個最簡單的例子是你聽到APPLE腦子里出現的是個蘋果而不是蘋果這個中文詞。如果一直靠著英翻漢漢翻英的思維轉換的話,一輩子也不可能真正理解外國文化。
G. 誰能告訴我初中英語科技短文的閱讀方法,技巧!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!謹記方法,技巧歐!!
初中閱讀理解你可以看問題,然後在原文找一模一樣的!初中是完全可以找到一樣的
H. 找幾篇有關科技的英語文章!!有關科技的!要英文的!
第一篇Not long ago, many people believed that babies only wanted food and to be kept warm and dry. Some people thought babies were not able to learn things until they were five or six months old.Yet doctors in the United States say babies begin learning on their first day of life. The Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development is a federal government agency. Its goal is to identify which experiences can influence healthy development in human beings.Research scientists at the institute note that babies are strongly influenced by their environment. They say a baby will smile if her mother does something the baby likes. A baby learns to get the best care possible by smiling to please her mother or other caregiver. This is how babies learn to connect and communicate with other human beings.

This is how babies learn to connect and communicate with other human beings.
第三篇The authors develop and test a multiclassifier-based near-real-time face detection system based on the premise that a three-part strategy is necessary for designing real-time face detection systems that provide high detection rates. The critical factors for real-time face detection are based on a framework of multiple classification functions: (1) a skin classification function is used as the preliminary stage in order to prune the search, localize the computation, and therefore improve performance time; (2) subsequently, three coarse-to-fine statistical model based classifiers are used to scan the windows and discard most non-face windows; and (3) finally, faces and non-faces are verified from images. The bagging ensemble algorithm (bootstrap aggregating) is also applied to improve the performance of detection rates.
第四篇Want a glance of the future of health care? Take a look at the way the various networks of people about patient care are being connected to one another, and how this new connectivity is being exploited to deliver medicine to the patient —no matter where he or she may be.
Online doctors offering advice based on normal symptoms(症狀) are the most obvious example. Increasingly, however, remote diagnosis(遠程診斷) will be based on real physiological data(生理數據) from the actual patient. A group from the University of Kentucky has shown that by using personal data assistance plus a mobile phone, it is perfectly practical to send a patient』s important signs over the telephone. With this kind of equipment, the cry asking whether there was a doctor in the house could well be a thing of the past.
Other medical technology groups are working on applying telemedicine to rural(countryside) care. And at least one team wants to use telemedicine as a tool for disaster need—especially after earthquakes. On the whole, the trend is towards providing global access to medical data and experts』 opinions.
But there is one problem. Bandwidth(寬頻) is the limiting factor for sending complex(復雜的) medical pictures around the world — CT photos being one of the biggest bandwidth users. Communication satellites may be able to deal with the short-term needs ring disasters such as earthquakes or wars. But medicine is looking towards both the second-generation Internet and third-generation mobile phones for the future of remote medical service.
Doctors have met to discuss computer-based tools for medical diagnosis, training and telemedicine. With the falling price of broadband communications, the new technologies should start a new time when telemedicine and the sharing of medical information, experts』 opinions and diagnosis are common.(這片有點長)
第五篇High-Tech Expo will be quietly into the footsteps of our campus, the annual "scientific and technological Month" activities started! We look forward to the most interesting is the High-Tech Expo will be it! Day after day passed, and finally to Saturdays! It is with emotion sitting in their seats, Hao teacher "order", we will quickly pick up the experimental equipment in high spirits to start the experiment. "We have to do is this group of 'interesting siphon' welcome to visit!" I cried loudly, Sun Xuhui only curiosity left over, we looked suspicious, I did not miss a good opportunity for each, said: " , Take a look at our test! "You do not want to see the glass reversed, changing the water will be able to go to it? "I like the" bombard "like to introce a non-stop," Oh, look carefully! First of all, the pipe filled with water, followed after a glass of water, access to water 1 cup on the table, the empty 2 cup lightly boosting, and low point, "Bai Baishou I let Yan Kai-day 2 cups hold air at the same time Fanlianniejin the end of the tube, I gently hose and hold the other end, went on to say: "I have to do a good job of this process, and then look! Now, we were put on both ends of the glass are No. 1 and No. 2 empty cup, there have been wonderful scene, 1 cup of water flow on a 2 cup. Graally, you will find that 1 cup of the air, on the contrary, the 2 cups filled with 1 cup of water. You want to know why? "Sun Xuhui see Huale Yan, Siyousiwu nodded, as if a child's desire for knowledge, taking advantage of this time, I had to step up the" attack ":" The principle is to siphon hose in the liquid, and the two ends are Niejin So Guanzi have a negative pressure, and then put them into two cups, to promote access to the water hose, which is siphon! "I nod after presentation, Sun Xuhui nodded, satisfied to leave our team. High-Tech Expo will, "visit" the group more and more people, this could be really popular science projects ah! High-Tech Expo will be the end, I think wistfully: Qin minds, our life is full of interesting, original, primary and secondary school students which we can hold our own, "Cobo" Yes!
