A Brief History of Coke
Nowadays, Coca-Cola's trademark is well known around the world and its procts average a staggering 400 million servings per day in more than 155 countries. According to legend, it began in a three-legged kettle in the back yard of Atlanta pharmacist Dr. John Styth Permberton who carried a jug of his concoction down the street to Jacob's Pharmacy where it was sold at the soda fountain for 5 cents a glass. Frank Robinson, Pemberton's partner and bookkeeper thought two "C"s would look good in advertising and wrote "Coca-Cola" in the flowering script so famous today.
It is significant that Permberton spent almost twice as much money on advertising ring the first years of operation as he made in profits, for the growth of Coke's popularity is as much e to the advertising and marketing strategy as it is to the quality of its proct. By continually monitoring changes in consumer attitudes and behaviour, the Coca-Cola Co. has become a widely recognized leader in advertising.
Pemberton could not foresee the greatest future awaiting his soft drink and sold out. Asa Griggs Candler bought the business and organized the Coca-Cola Co. into a Georgia corporation. In 1893, he registered Coca-Cola as a trademark.
Under Candler's leadership, the company began to grow quickly. In order to instigate a demand for the proct, he spent heavily on advertising. Signs were put up from coast and appeared on calendars, serving trays and other merchandising items, urging people to drink Coke. Candler's campaign paid off.
Candler was a creative talent at advertising, but showed little imagination in understanding Coke's marketing potential. In 1899, he sold the right to bottle Coke throughout most of the United State for $1, which he never bothered to collect. Candler saw Coke primarily as a soda-fountain drink. But two far-sighted businessmen from Chattanooga, Tennessee, Benjamin Franklin Thomas and Joseph Brown Whitehead, understood the potential, and, for the unpaid dollar, bought a franchise that became worth millions.
Their agreement with Candler began the franchising bottling system that still remains the foundation of the Coca-Cola Co.'s soft drink operations. Thomas and Whitehead sold the rights to bottle Coke to franchisers in every part of the country in return for the bottler's agreement to invest in the necessary resources and effort to make the franchise a success. During the following decade, 779 bottling plants went into operation.
In the early 20th century, Coke blazed the advertising trail, developing innovative concepts that became accepted practices in the filed. One of the most effective was the distribution and redemption of complimentary tickets, entitling the holder to a glass of free Coke at the soda fountain of a dispenser.

A. its high quality of the proct
B. its advertising
C. its effective advertising and marketing strategy
D. Both A and C

② 高中英语阅读表达典型例题(我要典型题附有答案的)
1. It is _______ outside. Let’s put on our raincoats and go out, Tom.
A. cold B. hot C. sunny D. rainy
【解析】此题易误为A。因为这里有个put on短语,如果不注意raincoats这个词那就很可能草率地选择A。raincoats是“雨衣”的意思,而不是一般的衣服,那么不是因为外面“冷”,而是因为“下雨”才穿“雨衣”。正确答案为D。
2. —_______ do you _______ about spring?
—The flowers and the green trees.
A. How, like B. How, think C. What, think D. What, like
【解析】此题陷阱选项为A或B或C。这是由于忽略语境造成的。由答语The flowers and the green trees. 可知,所问的是“你喜欢春天的什么?”而不是“你觉得春天怎么样?”。正确答案为D。
3. —What’s your sister like?
—_______.
A. She is a worker B. She likes pears
C. She is very thin D. She is like her father
【解析】此题陷阱选项为B或D。有很多考生一看题干中的like一词就会想当然地选择B或D。其实,问句的意思是“你姐姐长得怎么样?”因此,正确答案为C。What’s … like? 这个句型常常用来询问某人的长相或某事的情况(包括天气情况)。
4. —It’s too hot. Would you mind _______ the door?
—_______. Please do it now.
A. to open, OK B. opening, Certainly not
C. opening, Of course D. to open, Good idea
【解析】此题陷阱选项为A。一方面是由于不了解mind的用法,另一方面的由于忽略造成的。mind后面接动词时要用其ing形式。由答语中的Please do it now. 可知“不介意”。正确答案为B。
5. —If you have any trouble, be sure to call me.
—_______.
A. I am glad to hear that B. I will. thank you very much.
C. I have no trouble D. I will think it over
【解析】此题陷阱选项为A或D。由于受汉语思维的影响很容易选择A或D。其实,问句意为“如果你有麻烦,一定要打电话给我”,这是一个表示请求的句子,对于别人的请求要么拒绝要么接受,而不能含糊其辞。正确答案为C。
典型形容词和副词考题分析
1. We should keep _______ in the reading-room.
A. quite B. quietly
C. quiet D.quickly
【解析】此题容易误选A或B。选A是由于不细心,把quite当成是quiet,草率做题造成的;选B是由于把keep误认为是一般的实义动词,修饰实义动词当然得用副词。其实,这里的keep连系动词,后面要接形容词作表语。正确答案为C。
2. The light in the room wasn’t _______for me to read.
A. enough bright B. brightly enough
C. enough brightly D. bright enough
【解析】此题容易误选A或B。选A的人是受的汉语思维的影响,enough bright翻译过来正好是“足够明亮”的意思,其实这并不符合英语的习惯,在英语中当enough修饰形容词或副词时一定要后置;选B的人没有注意所缺的成分是表语,作表语时应该用形容词而不用副词。正确答案为D。
3. She is _______of the two.
A. the cleverest B. the cleverer
C. the clever D. cleverest
【解析】此题容易误选A。这是由于思维定势引起的。因为最高级的比较范围往往用of短语引出,那么一些考生一看到of一词就毫不犹豫地选择了A项。其实,由这里的two可知,两者中的比较只能用比较级,而且指特定的两者中“较……的那一个”时,比较级前往往要用定冠词the。因此正确答案为B。
4. —How far is the factory from here?
—It’s about 4 kilometres _______.
A. far B. long
C. away D. near
【解析】此题容易误选A。这是由于受到汉语思维的影响,因为译成汉语正好是“大约4公里远”。其实,问距离时可以用How far is …. ?,但是far不能与表示具体的距离连用,此时应该用away。因此,正确答案为C。
5. —Do you have enough men to carry these chairs?
—No. I think we need _______ men.
A. another B. other two
C. more two D. two more
【解析】此题容易误选A或B或C。选A的同学是由于草率做题造成的,因为这里空格后面是个复数名词,而不是单数可数名词,因此不能选A。选B或C的同学是由于汉语思维的影响引起的,汉语中说“另外两个”,但是英语中要说other two或two more,这与汉语的习惯不一样。正确答案为D。
其实,another后面也可以接一些表示时间、距离、金钱、重量等的复数名词。如:
If you give us another twenty minutes (= twenty more minutes), we will finish the work. 如果你再给我们二十分钟,我们就可以完成这项工作。
6. He is taller than _______ girl in his class.
A. any B. other
C. any other D. another
【解析】此题容易误选C。这是由于思维定势引起的。平时大家都熟悉这样的句子China is larger than any other country in Asia. Shanghai is larger than any other city in China. 于是than any other这个结构在同学们的头脑中已经根根深蒂固了。其实,到底要不要other, 关键是看主语是否也在比较的范围之内;如果在范围之内,就必须用other, 以此来避免与自身进行比较;如果不在范围之内,则不能用other, 因为没有必要把自身排除。这里主语he不属于girl in his class之列,不能用other, 因此正确为A。
7. How beautifully she sings! I have never heard _______ voice.
A. the best B. a best
C. the better D. a better
【解析】此题容易误选A。这是由于思维定势引起的,许多同学认为最高级前加了定冠词the肯定没错。其实,这是一个暗含比较级,它省略了一些我们很清楚的东西,句子的完整形式应为:I have never heard a better voice than her voice. 因此正确答案为D。
8. _______ fathers made them have piano lessons.
A. Peter and Ann’s B. Peter’s and Ann’s
C. Peter’s and Ann D. Peter and Ann
【解析】此题容易误选A或C。错误的原因是由于受思维定势的影响。平时考生们做多了“This is Lucy and Lily’s bedroom. ”这样的题,那么一看到这样的题就想到只是在后面一个单词后面用所有格。其实,到底用一个所有格,还是用两个所有格,取决于它们所修饰的名词:如果所修饰的名词是单数可数名词,就只在后面一个名词后面用所有格;如果所修饰的名词是复数可数名词,就两个名词都用所有格。正确答案为B。
9. There are a lot _______ people today than yesterday.
A. of B. / C. most D. more
【解析】此题容易误选A。有不少考生因受“ a lot of +名词”这一思维定势的影响,一看到a lot,就选择了A。其实,该句中的a lot是用来修饰形容词的比较级more的,than引导的是比较状语从句。正确答案为D。
3. “Excuse me, are you _______? ”
“No, we are _______. ”
A. American, Englishman B. American, Germans
C. American, Germen D. Englishman, Americans
【解析】先从词性来看,American 和 German 既可以用作名词也可以用作形容词,用作名词时,其复数形式分别为Americans 和 Germans;选项中的Englishman只能用作名词,其复数形式是Englishmen。
先看第一空:如果单从Excuse me, are you _______?来看,要是填Englishman,就应该在其前加不定冠词,即说成Excuse me, are you an Englishman? 但是,根据答语中的 we are…可知,问句中的you 其实是指“你”,而是指“你们”,所以如果用Englishman,就应换成 Englishmen 才对。由此可排除选项D。
再看第二空:由于German的复数是Germans,不是Germen,由此可确定C错误;再根据we are…可知,其后若用名词Englishman,必须要用复数Englishmen,而不能是单数,所以排除A。
所以此题答数为B
10. A spaceship flies at about eleven kilometers _______ second.
A. / B. the C. a D. an
【解析】此题容易误选B。这是由于思维定势引起的,很多同学认为这里的second是序数词,前面应该用定冠词the修饰。其实,second是“秒”的意思。正确答案为C。
11. _______ India and China are of _______ same continent.
A. /; the B. The ; the C. /; / D. /; a
【解析】此题容易误选D。这是由于受汉语思维的影响造成的,因为译成汉语时这句话的意思是“印度和中国在同一个大洲”,汉语里说“同一个”,在英语中要说“the same”,这就是此题的陷阱所在。正确答案为A
12—You’re very ______, aren’t you? —Yes. Our team has won the game.
A. happy B. worried C. sad D. afraid
解答此题时你若只看问句,填任何一个答案都是正确的,当看到答句中的has won the match才知道只有答案A正确。
13—Your spoken English is much better! —______.
A. Oh, no B. You’re right C. thank you D. Not at all
当被别人称赞时,谦虚的中国人常说“不,哪里哪里”或“不,还差得远咧”等等,若按这种思维,很容易错选答案A或D;而西方人却是向对方表示感谢,所以答案是C。
14I hear someone _______at the door. Please go and see who _______ is.
A. knock, he B. knocking, he C. knock, it D. knocking, it
【解析】此题容易误选A或B。这是由于汉语思维的影响引起的。大家都知道hear sb. do sth. 意为“听见某人做某事”,hear sb. doing sth. 意为“听见某人正在做某事”,这样一来很多人就会选择A或B,因为后面“去看看他是谁”从汉语的角度来看是没有错的。其实,在英语中常常用it来指代身份(姓名、职业等)不详的人。有人敲门时我们常常用英语问“Who is it?”正确答案为D。
15. Lucy and I are classmates. We _______ in Class One.
A. all are B. are all C. both are D. are both
【解析】此题容易误选A或C。这里受到汉语思维的影响引起的,译成汉语正好是“我们都在一班”。表示两者都要用both,both一般放在be动词、情态动词或助动词之后,行为动词之前。正确答案为D。
16. There is _______ egg at home. Will you please get _______ for me, please?
A. no, some B. not, some C. not any, any D. not an, any
【解析】此题容易误选C或D。这是由于死记语法条文引起的。因为大家都知道some一般用于肯定句中,而any一般用于疑问句或否定句中,这样一来A和B首先就给排除了。其实,在表示请求或建议的疑问句,如Would you like…? / What would you like…? / Could you/ I …? / What about…? / How about…? / Would/ will you please…?等等疑问句中习惯上要用some而不用any。又因为no可以直接修饰名词,而not必须加上a/an或any之后才可以接名词。因此正确答案为A。
17. —A latest English newspaper, please!
—Only one left. Would you like to have _______, sir?
A. one B. this C. that D. it
【解析】此题容易误选A。这是由于忽略语境和思维定势造成的。这里是在询问是否有报纸卖,很多同学认为这里最后一句话的意思是“先生,你是否想要一份”。其实,由上文中的Only one left. 可知,只剩下一份报纸了,这暗示了购买者别无选择,只能买“它”了。正确答案为D。
18. —Don’t make any noise in the living room! My baby is sleeping.
—_______.
A. Sorry, I won’t B. It doesn’t matter
C. Excuse me, I’m wrong D. Certainly, I won’t
【解析】此题容易误选 C 或 D。一方面可能由于不知道 Excuse me. 与 Sorry. 的区别,而误选为C;另一方面可能由于不理解这一语境而误选为D。这里听话者是做错了事情,做错的事情首先应该说 Sorry 表示歉意,然后现表示不会再那样做了。正确答案为A。
19. —I haven’t seen Jack for three days, is he ill?
—_______. His mother told me that he was in hospital.
A. I am afraid so B. I hope not
C. I don’t expect D. I am afraid not
【解析】此题容易误选B或D。一般来说我们不希望别人生病,如果不注意语境的话,就很可能误选为B或D。由下文His mother told me that he was in hospital. 可知Jack可能生病了。I am afraid so. 意为“恐怕是这样的”,常用来表示一种不太肯定的语气。正确答案为A
20. —Excuse me. May I use your computer?
—_______. It’s broken.
A. Sure B. Yes, here you are
C. With pleasure D. I’m afraid not
【解析】此题易犯草率答题的错误而误选A或B。对于别人的请求大多数要用肯定回答,如果没有下文的It’s broken. 选择A或B那肯定是正确的。由下文的It’s broken. 可知,这里应该拒绝对方的请求,故正确答案为D。这里I’m afraid not. 意为“恐怕不行”。
21. —Can I get you something to drink, Mr Smith?
—_______. I am thirsty.
A. Here you are B. No, thank you
C. You’re welcome D. Yes, please
【解析】此题容易误选B。因为当对方问自己是否需要某物时可以说Yes, please. 表示接受,也可以说No, thank you. 表示拒绝。如果不注意看下文的I’m thirsty. 就很可能误选为B。正确答案为D。
22. —Your sweater is very beautiful, Joan!
—_______.
A. thank you all the same B. Not at all
C. Just so-so D. thank you
【解析】此题容易误选B或C。在汉语中受到别人的表扬或赞美时往往感到不好意思,要谦虚一番,受汉语思维的影响就很容易选择B或C。在英语中受到表扬或赞美时往往要欣然接受,向对方表示谢意。如果草率做题此题也很可能会误选为A。正确答案为D。
23. —What do you do? —_______.
A. I am thirteen B. I work hard
C. I’m fine D. I’m a student
【解析】此题容易误选B。What do you do? 所问的不是经常“做什么”,而是在询问对方的“职业”,它相当于What’s your job? 因此正确答案为D。
注意:以下句型的意思:What is he? (用来询问职业)他是干什么的?What does he do? (= What’s his job? ) (用来询问职业) What is he like? (用来询问长相或人品) 他长得怎么样?/他是怎样一个人? How is he? (用来询问身体状况)他身体怎么样?How old is he? (用来询问年龄) 他多大了?
24. —Andy isn’t going out this evening, is she?
—_______. She has to stay at home to look after her sick mother.
A. Yes, she is B. No, she isn’t
C. Yes, she isn’t D. No, she is
【解析】此题容易误选C。答语应译作“是,她不出去”才对,因此受到汉语思维的影响此题就很可能选C,但是这不符合英语的习惯。其实,否定的疑问句回答与肯定的疑问句的回答方式是一样的,答案肯定的就用“Yes, + 肯定的省略句”;答案是否定的就用“No, +否定的省略句”。只不过否定疑问句的答语中Yes要译作“不”,No要译作“是的”,这一点与汉语有点错位。例如:你是一名学生,假如有人这样问你:Are you a student? / Aren’t you a student? / You are a student, aren’t you? / You aren’t a student, are you? 那么你的回答都应该是“Yes, I am.”。只不过应注意在回答第2和第4个问句时Yes要译作“不”。
25. —Hello. May I speak to Mr. Wang?
—Who’s calling, please.
—_______.
A. I’m Mr. Wang B. Mr. Wang is here
C. This is Mr. Wang speaking D. Mr. Wang is calling
【解析】此题容易误选A或B或D。这是受的汉语思维的影响,因为汉语中在电话时常常说“我是某人”时,但是英语中不说“I am… / … is here. ”而习惯上说“This is … (speaking). / Speaking. ”正确答案为C。
26. —I fell and hurt my leg just not.
—_______.
A. Be careful B. It doesn’t matter
C. I’m sorry to hear that D. Nothing serious
【解析】此题容易误选A或B或D。这里也很容易受到汉语思维的影响,因为平时对方告诉我们说他或她摔倒了,我们总会对他或她进行安慰说一些“小心点”,“没关系”等等之类的话。而在英语中听到对方诉说一些不幸的事情时往往要说“I’m sorry to hear that. / Bad luck!”之类的话表示同情或安慰,这一点与汉语的习惯不一样。正确答案为C。
27. —_______.
—thank you very much. I will.
A. Congratulations! B. Best wishes to you
C. Please say hello to your family. D. What a good wish to your family!
【解析】此题容易误选A或B。因为A和B两项都可以用thank you very much. 来回答,如果不注意后面的I will. ,那么选择A或B的可能性是非常大的。正确答案为C。Please say hello to your family. 意为“请代我向你的家人问好”。
28 Is there ______ food in the fridge?I’m hungry.
A. some B. any C. something D. anything
本题是考查不定代词的用法,从题干上可知C、D不作定语,应考虑A、B两个选项,这时就需要领会附加成分I’m hungry. 的含义,它的意思是“我饿了。”,言下之意希望冰箱里有食物,即希望肯定回答,故选A。
29 ______ have you been to Xi’an?
—Twice. (from www.zkenglish.com)
A. How soon B. How m any times
C. How often D. How long
本题主要是对疑问词的考查,由于A用于将来时态,D用于表段时间,本题只有在B、C中选择了。有的同学一见Twice就会选C,本题的关键也确实在Twice这个附加成分上,仔细分析Twice,它表示“两次”,并不是多久两次,故选B。
30 There are a lot ____ people today than yesterday.
A. of B. most C. / D. more
有的同学一看此题,就会认为选A,因为是固定搭配a lot of。如果我们仔细分析一下题干可知,此句有一连词than引导的比较状语从句,这是个比较结构,排除A、C项,B是最高级应排除,故答案理所当然应选D。本题的考查点应是副词a lot修饰比较级m ore,意为“多得多”。
31 Shanghai is larger than ____ city in New Zealand.
A. any other B. other C. all other D. any
此题是考查比较级句型,很多考生就容易误选A,因为“比较级+than any other +名词”这一比较模式在学生的思维中已成定式,印象很深。可是新西兰这个国家与上海所在国家(中国)不是同一地理范围,上海不是与本国的城市相比,而是与它国的城市相比,不必排除“自身”这个比较对象。不必加other一词。故本题选D。
32 —Would you like some more fish?
—______, I’m full.
A. Yes, please B. No, thanks
C. No, I won’t have it D. Yes, I won’t to
本题考查英语的口语表达习惯,在西方国家,想接受或拒绝对方盛情时用“Yes,please.”或“No,thanks.”,由题意应选B。而很多学生受母语“我想要”或“不想”的影响,易误选C。
33 —You are a beautiful girl. —_____.
A. No,I am not beautiful B. thank you
C. Not at all D. I’m not so beautiful as you.
本题应选B。根据英美人士的习惯,当别人夸奖或赞美你时,你不应过分谦虚,而应该表示感谢以示礼貌和自信(尽管明知自己在此方面不行),千万别受母语影响,说一些自谦的话而选A或C。
34I will ring you up when I ____ Wuhan tomorrow.
A. will reach B. reached C. reaches D. reach
本题考查的是动词时态,有些同学一见从句后有tom orrow,就选A,实际上在我们学习语法知识时有这样一条“如果主句是一般将来时态、情态动词加动词原形、祈使句时,由if引导的条件状语从句和when,until,be-fore,after,as soon as引导的时间状语从句用一般现在时代替一般将来时”。所以本题应选D。
35 He told m e that the sun ____ in the east.
A. rose B. had risen C. rises D. have risen
本题是考查动词的时态,有些同学认为当主句是过去式时,宾语从句应是与过去有关的各种时态,很容易选B。如果我们仔细分析一下that引导的宾语从句,就可知“太阳从东方升起”应是一种自然现象。我们都知道表述客观真理、自然现象和客观规律时,不受其他条件影响一律用一般现在时,故本题应选C。
36 The People’s Republic of China was founded.
A. on October 1, 1949 B. 1949, on October 1
C. in October 1, 1949 D. 1949, in October 1
(2) Which is ____, the moon or the earth?
A. big B. bigger C. biggest D. the biggest
显而易见,题1涉及历史知识“中华人民共和国建立于1949年10月1日”,根据这一历史知识应选A。题2涉及的是天文知识“地球与月亮哪个大”,两者相比用比较级,故本题选B。
37. 熟记语法知识,注意习惯用法
近年来,有的中考题淡化了语法知识考查,但记牢最基本的语法知识仍有利于我们理解题意和答题。
The farm ers are all busy ____ apples.
A. pick B. to pick C. picking D. to picking
根据语法知识,be busy的习惯用法是be busy后接动词-ing形式。故本题应选C。像这样的固定用法还有enjoy doing sth, keep(sb /sth )doing sth, finish doing sth, can’t help doing sth, feel like doing sth, m ind doing sth, prerfer doing sth to doing sth 等等。
③ 大学英语六级考试阅读理解题型复习技巧
1、两遍阅读重在训练速度
“两遍阅读法”,即遍着重训练阅读能力,第二遍着重扩大词汇量并培养语感。
大学英语六级考试首先从提高阅读速度入手。集中精力阅读一篇长度适中的文章,记下起止时间,并计算单位时间的阅读量。迫使自己进行快速阅读,便成了一种习惯。在遍阅读过程中,将重点放在训练速度、掌握文章大意及基本结构上,并找出问题,以便进一步阅读时着重解决。
2、第二遍阅读既要扩大词汇量又要培养语感
第二遍阅读的重点有两个:一是扩大词汇量。具体做法是:把文章再读一遍,查出生单词,记到小笔记本上,有时间就拿出来背。
背单词,不利用整块时间。当学习别的内容效率较低的时候,背单词合适。每次背的时间不一定很长,贵在多次反复。在大学英语六级考试扩大词汇量的初期阶段,了解词的释义为重要。就这样,随着阅读量的增加,面的拓宽,词汇量也就突飞猛进了。只是到了后来准备TOEFL、GRE等考试时,开始背词汇手册,并使用英文解释,以了解词的确切含义及使用的语言环境。
第二遍阅读的第二个重点在于培养语感。仔细地体会精彩的语言,留意词的使用以及搭配,对某些段落我常出声朗读,甚至背诵下来。这样做,有利于加强语感;为写作打基础。通过这种“两遍阅读法”,所读内容在我头脑中留下的印象一般都很深刻,而且也提高了阅读材料的利用率。
3、分阶段选择不同难度的阅读材料
这里,我们要结合大学英语六级考试两遍阅读法回头来说一下阅读的选材问题。
从一开始就选择一些当时对我们来说难度偏大的阅读材料。这些文章涉及的范围很广,包括了多个领域的词汇。有些文章甚至是自己不了解、甚至不大感兴趣的科普、历史、哲学等方面的文章。选择这样上千字的文章有一个好处,那就是通常会有二三十个生词,对于积累词汇非常有用。
另外,针对不同的训练目的,选取了内容难度不同的阅读材料。例如,进行快速阅读时,可以选择生词量较小、篇幅较短的文章;而重点在扩大词汇量、拓宽视野的阅读训练,就选择英美报刊杂志。此外,还注重循序渐进,根据不同阶段自己英语水平的变化选择相应的阅读材料。
4、巧阅读,使听、说、写三方面水到渠成
有同学会问,英语包括听、说、读、写四方面,这样只重视“读”其他三方面不都荒废了吗?
这一点大家不用担心。在阅读量还不足的初始阶段,并不要急于自己动笔写作,而是学习、模仿一些经典篇章—《新概念英语》第三册,还有精读课本中的一些精彩篇章,要背下来,并常利用早晨的时间大声朗读或者收听广播。这样一来,耳朵里听到、眼睛里看到了地道的英语,久而久之,自己也就学会说、学会写了。通过有意识的大量阅读,一方面扩大了词汇量,另一方面培养了语感。而这两方面我认为是掌握一种语言的两大支柱。读的内容多了,词汇量足够大,语感足够强,只要多加练习,听、说、写三个环节也就自然而然地提高了。
大学英语六级考试的时候,在听、说,读、写能力逐步提高的基础上,只要稍微做一些模拟试题,了解各种测试特点,成绩自然不会差。与其到考试前夕,搞题海战术,倒还不如踏踏实实、一点一滴地积累。只要深信:功到自然成。更多关于大学英语六级考试的备考技巧,备考干货,新闻资讯等内容,小编会持续更新。

检举Yuanxiao
吃元宵,话元宵
The 15th day of the 1st lunar month is the Chinese Lantern Festival. The first lunar month is called Yuan-month in China, and in the ancient times people called night Xiao. Meanwhile, the 15th day is the first night to see a full moon. So the day is also called Yuanxiao Festival in China. According to the Chinese tradition, at the very beginning of a new year, when there is a bright full moon hanging in the sky, there should be thousands of colorful lanterns hung out for people to appreciate. At this time, people will try to solve the puzzles on the lanterns and get all their families united in the joyful atmosphere.
Besides entertainment and beautiful lanterns, another important part of the Lantern Festival, is eating small mpling (面团) balls made of glutinous rice flour (糯米粉) . We call these balls Yuanxiao of Tangyuan. Obviously, they get the name from the festival itself. It is said that the custom of eating Yuanxiao originated ring the Eastern Jin Dynasty in the fourth century, then became popular ring the Tang and Song periods.
The fillings inside the mplings or Yuanxiao are either sweet or salty. Sweet fillings are made of sugar, walnuts (胡桃), sesame (芝麻), osmanthus flowers (桂花), rose petals, sweetened tangerine peel (甜橙皮), bean paste (豆沙), or jujube paste (枣泥) . A single ingredient (成分) or any combination can be used as the filling. The salty variety is filled with minced (切碎的) meat, vegetables or a mixture.
The way to make Yuanxiao also varies between northern and southern China. The usual method followed in southern provinces is to shape the dough (生面团) of rice flour into balls, make a hole, insert the filling, then close the hole and smooth out the mpling by rolling it between your hands. In North China, sweet or non-meat stuffing is the usual ingredient. The fillings are pressed into hardened cores, dipped lightly in water and rolled in a flat basket containing dry glutinous rice flour. A layer (层) of the flour sticks to the filling, which is then again dipped in water and rolled a second time in the rice flour. And so it goes, like rolling a snowball, until the mpling is the desired size.
The custom of eating Yuanxiao mplings remains. This tradition encourages both old and new stores to promote their Yuanxiao procts. They all try their best to improve the taste and quality of the mplings to attract more customers

“God made the world, but the Dutch made Holland.” True to this saying, the people of the Netherlands are again “making” their land.
About 1980 the Netherlands will complete a project begun in the 1920’s: transforming the Zyuder Zee, an inlet (小港) of the North Sea into dry land and a freshwater lake. By stages, 550,000 acres of land will serve several purposes: instrial, recreational, military, and agricultural. Fed by the river Yssel, the remaining water basin Lake Yssel, about 300,000 acres will irrigate the surrounding land and help in the fight against salination (盐化作用). Excess water will drain through sluices into the sea.
As the first stop a nineteen-mile-long barrier dam, rising twenty-five feet above sea level, closed the entrance to the Zuider Zee. Then the experimental polder of a hundred acres preceded the first and smallest of the main polders fifty thousand acres that became dry land in 1930. The fifth and largest polder 150,000 acres will be the last of the Zuider Zee works.
Farmers for the new polder (开拓地) come from every province. The Eastern Flevoland polder, completed in 1957, became farmland for many from the province of Zealand which was badly hit by the disastrous floods of 1953.
31. This article gives a present-day example of how__________.
A. salty soils are desalinated B. the Netherlands has increased its land area
C. irrigation systems are built D. dams are constructed
32. The period taken for the Zuider Zee project is__________.
A. from 1900 up to 1960 B. from the 1920 till about 1980
C. from 1930 to 1957 D. less than fifty years
33. The Zuider Zee will be replaced by____________.
A. 550,000 acres of land B. 300,000 acres of fresh water
C. both A and B D. Neither A nor B
34. The article gives a measurement for the__________.
A. height of the barrier dam B. width of the barrier dam
C. width of the road along the dam D. height above sea level of the area on the land side of dam
35. Implied but not stated:

B. The polder recipe was first used in this century.
C. Half of the Netherlands is below sea level.
D. There is more than one method of fighting salination.

During the Christmas shopping rush in London, the intriguing story was reported of a tramp(流浪汉) who, apparently through no fault of his own, found himself locked in a well-known chain store late on Christmas Eve. No doubt the store was crowded with last minute Christmas shoppers and the staff were dead beat and longing to get home.

However that may be, our tramp found himself alone in the store and decided to make the best of it. There was food, drink, bedding and camping equipment, of which he made good use. There must also have been television sets and radios Though it was not reported if he took advantage of these facilities, when the shop re-opened, he was discovered in bed with a large number of empty bottles beside him. He seems to have been a man of good humor and philosophic temperament---as indeed vagrants(流浪汉) very commonly arc. Everyone also was enjoying Christmas, so he saw no good reason why he should not do the same. He submitted, cheerfully enough, to being taken way by the police. Perhaps he had bad a better Christmas than usual. He was sent to prison for Seven days. The judge awarded no compensation to the chain store for the food and drink our tramp had consumed. They had, in his opinion, already received valuable free publicity from the coverage the story received in the newspapers and on television. Perhaps the judge had had a good Christmas too.
