篇一:《解释句子》
Unit 1
1. A word that is more or less right, a loose phrase, an ambiguous expression, a vague adjective, will not satisfy a writer who aims at clean English.
A writer who is particular about the exactness of an expression in English will never feel happy with a word which fails to express an idea accurately.
2. Choosing words is part of the process of realization, of defining our thoughts and feelings for ourselves, as well as for those who hear or read our words.
To a certain extent, the process of finding the right words to use is a process of perfection where you try to search for words that may most accurately express your thoughts and feelings, and words that may most effectively make your listeners and readers understand your thoughts and feelings. 3. It is hard work choosing the right words, but we shall be rewarded by the satisfaction that finding them brings.
Finding the most suitable word to use is in no sense easy. But there is nothing like the delight we shall experience when such a word is located.
4. The exact use of language gives us mastery over the material we are dealing with.
Once we are able to use language accurately, we are in a position to fully understand our subject matter.
Unit 2
1.The result is that the Mediterranean, which nurtured so many civilizations, is gravely ill – the first of the seas to fall victim to the abilities and attitudes that evolved around it.
What happens is that the Mediterranean, the cradle of many ancient cultures, is seriously polluted. It is the first of the seas that has been made to suffer from a situation resulting from development mixed with an irresponsible mentality.
2. What is more, most cities just drop it in straight off the beach; rare indeed are the places like Cannes and Tel Aviv which pipe it even half a mile offshore.
Further, while the places such as Cannes and Tel Aviv dispose of their wastes through a pipe stretching out half a mile from the shore, most cities do not even bother to do that but simply dump their sewage directly into the sea along the coastline
3. An even greater danger lurks in the seductive seafood dishes that
add so much interest to holiday menus.
There is an even bigger hazard hidden in the seafood dishes that are forever so appealing to those holiday-makers.
4. Factories cluster round the coastline, and even the most modern rarely had proper waste-treatment plant.
Factories are set up around the coastline, few of which, including the most sophisticated, have been equipped with a satisfactory system for dealing with their wastes.
5. Thousands of tons of pesticides are blown off the fields into the sea, detergents from millions of sinks kill fish, and fertilizers, flushed out to sea, nourish explosions of plankton which cover bathers with itchy slime.
The wind carries thousands of tons of pesticides from the fields into the sea, the dirty water from millions of sinks kill fish, and fertilizers, which are rushed out in a flood to sea, make a considerable increase in the amount of plankton which cover the bathers with itchy sticky substance.
6. It takes 80 years for the water to be renewed, through the narrow, shallow straits, far too slow a process to cope with the remorseless rush of pollution.
It takes 80 years for the water to become clean by itself through the narrow, shallow straits, and it is a far and too slow process to deal successfully with the sewage, effluents, etc., which pour into the sea threateningly and which cannot be stopped.
Unit 3
This knack for going instinctively to the heart of a matter was the secret of his major scientific discoveries – this and his extraordinary feeling for beauty.
The intensity and depth of his concentration were fantastic. When battling a recalcitrant problem, he worried it as an animal worries its prey.
A dreamy, faraway and yet inward look would come over his face. There was no appearance of concentration, no furrowing of the brow – only a placid inner communion.
Each of these assumptions, by itself, was so plausible as to seem primitively obvious. But together they were in such violent conflict that a lesser man would have dropped one or the other and fled in panic.
Einstein’s work, performed quietly with pencil and paper, seemed remote from the turmoil of everyday life. But his ideas were so
revolutionary they caused violent controversy and irrational anger. Unit4
1.“… it takes an effort of the intellect and will even to see them”: i.e. one has to be clever enough and determined enough if one wishes to see them. In other words, if one is slow in seeing things and if one is indifferent to anything, one will not see them.
2.“The poor are increasingly slipping out of the very experience and consciousness of the nation.”: i.e. The poor are more and more getting out of the life and mind of the people in general in the country. That is, people are getting less and less aware of the presence of the poor in their life and mind.
3.“This new segregation of poverty is compounded by a well-meaning ignorance.” : i.e. This new separation of poverty from affluence is made worse by a well-intentioned ignorance.
4.“our emotional and existential ignorance of poverty”: i.e. our ignorance of poverty which we are not aware of and which does exist. In other words, we really do not know that there is poverty. Unit 5
1. “TV set has attained the rank of a legal necessity , safe from repossession in case of debt along with clothes,…..”
The TV set has become so important in the life of a family that its possession is guaranteed by law. Even when a person is in debt, it can’t be taken away from him by whomever he owes a debt.
2.“….kept the members of the family from dispersing , it has not served to bring them together”
the TV helps to keep all the family members in the house in a physical sense. But they are not really doing things together. Instead, they watch their own favorite programme with little interaction between them.
3.“…the television set casts its magic spell, freezing speech and action, turning the living into silent statues so long as the enchantment lasts”
TV seems to have magic power over people. As soon as TV is on , people stop talking and doing anything else, growing to be lifeless statues before the TV screen They will remain so till the end of the programme.
Unit6
1.Paraphrase “When he read … might play”(6)
When he read or recited Greek poetry, it seemed that what was
described in the verse became alive; both the romantic ideas and the poetical lines sounded like beautiful music, and I just like him, was motivated to be neither a hero in poetry nor a poet who created poetry, but only a student of Greek culture and poetry in such a way that I would be able to interpret Greek poetry.
2. It was too great and too various for me to personify with my boyish imitations and heroism(6):
life was so good and so different in kind that I was not able to express what it was like with my youthful mind and boldness．
3. Paraphrase “Go to, boy… , everything.”(12)
“Come on, boy. The world belongs to you – you are expected to do creative thinking and to act creatively for the world. There is still a lot to be accomplished, and a lot to be found out. No poem written can be called the greatest and no railroad built van be the best. The perfect state has yet to be conceived. Everything has yet to be done.”
4. Paraphrase “It was conversation I was… the theme.” (14)
What I was hearing was the unrestrained, earnest, and sparkling interchanges of great intellect as sharp as first-rate tools. They were always polite, speaking one at a time, no one speak to anyone in secret and no one disagreed; they all spoke when there was an issue everyone was interested in; and while they were explaining something, anyone, no matter whether he was for or against the issue, would tell others what he knew about a philosopher’s opinion or a poet’s phrase in order to clarify or beautify the theme.

2007年12月英语四级作文题目及范文
题目：What Electives to Choose
1、各大学开设了各种各样的选修课
2、学生因为各种原因选择了不同的选修课
3、以你自己为例……
[范文一]
Nowadays, there usually exists a wide selection of electives for college students to choose from. However, students have quite different plans for their future so they always end up learning courses based on their own ideas.
Some students may choose to learn a certain course in order to obtain an extra certificate for their job hunting after graduation. Because they assume that some more knowledge could ensure more chances of winning in finding a good job. Others may have their choice made just for fun. They tend to hold the idea that college life could be more colorful if they could widen their knowledge through elective courses.
As far as I’m concerned, I’m inclined to choose electives based on both the
value of the courses and the interest of my own.
[范文二]解释的句子。
Nowadays many college students prefer to have electives in their spare time because the courses can offer a variety of skills and abundant knowledge apart from what they learn in the daily courses. There are many factors that may account for it, and the following are the most conspicuous aspects.
To start with, many students want to get another degree besides their own, so that they can have more competence when they seek a job. Furthermore, as for me, I don’t care about degree or job, I just want to obtain some necessary skills to make my college life worthwhile. What I’m concerned most is how to own more skills that may be necessary for my future. Finally, some students want to learn anything that is different from what they are learning now. The science students, for example, want to know about Shakespeare while the art students want to tell how a vehicle works and how to deal with it when it breaks down. So, they can all get what they think is useful to their college life.
On the whole, the phenomenon is one of the results of multi-demand of the employment market. There is still a long way for us to improve the elective itself, but as a student myself, I find it rewarding and interesting.
[范文三]
With the reform of Chinese higher education, more and more colleges and universities put emphasis on nurturing students’ abilities. As a result, elective courses are available not only for excellent academic performers but also for students about the average level.
Certainly, students have different reasons to choose their own electives. For some, practical skills are the essence of college education, and therefore, courses on computer science, marketing, and finance are highly preferred. On the other hand, others may hold the idea of liberal education and electives concerning literature, history, and philosophy are the most welcome.
Take me as an example: being a disciple of free education, I stand for the notion that university is not a place for survival skills, but a palace of knowledge and critical reasoning. Although my major is chemistry, the electives I attend most frequently are English literature, an Introduction to Classic Music, and Different Schools of Western Painting. They really widen my horizon.

题目：Due Attention Should Be Given to Spelling
1.如今不少学生在英语学习中不重视拼写
2.出现这种情况的原因
3.这种现象导致的结果
[范文]
Now we are entering a brand new era full of opportunities and innovations, and great changes have taken place in people's attitude towards some traditional practice, especially in the area of English learning , one of which is less attention has been given to spelling by college students . This issue has been brought into解释的句子。
public focus and called for further concern.
A number of factors could account for the problem, but the following are the most critical ones. First, information is expanding at such an increasing rate that our society is called the one of information. The information is so immense that students haven' t ample energy and time to deal deeply with spelling, and some computer programs, such as word ,have done the spelling checking work for us . Second, the standardized-test oriented way of English learning, in which the high score can be achieved without spelling, put students to the position in which they have the quite reason to ignore spelling.
This issue may lead to a number of unfavorable consequences, with the following two the most serious. For one thing, the information would be incorrect when conveyed by hand- writing way and cause some bad effects. For another, we may indulge ourselves in this way of inaccuracy which may influence our attitude of learning or research. The awareness of the importance of this issue should be enhanced and some proper measures should be taken. It is reasonable for us to believe that the situation will be improved in the near future.

题目：How I Finance My College Education
1.上大学的费用（tuition and fees）可以通过多种渠道解决
2.那种渠道适合于我（说明理由）
[范文]
Nowadays, tuition and fees for college education are much higher than ever before. How to finance college education has become a matter of concern for many students.
Different people have different ways to solve this problem. Some get all of the money from their parents. Some apply for a loan especially set up for college students. Some acquire the money completely by themselves, doing a full-time job in summer or winter holiday. Some other students may ask their parents for most of it and earn the rest in their spare time in college, by doing a part-time job.解释的句子。
As far as I’m concerned, I prefer the last way. Having acquired most of the tuition and fees from my parents, I needn’t worry too much about the money and can concentrate on my study; on the other hand, a part-time job in my spare time makes my campus-life colorful. I can make a lot of friends, improve my abilities and learn lots of knowledge. So, I choose this way to cover my tuition and fees.
篇三:《如何理解文中句子含义》
阅读题中理解句子类题型：
一、理解句子含义。所谓理解句子含义，指的是既要说出句子的表层意思，又要说出句子的深层意思。
问题的主要形式有：
上文中画线句子在文中的含义是什么？
揣摩下列各句，说说你对句子的理解。
揣摩文中画线句子，回答问题。
二、理解句子表现的作者的思想感情。任何一篇文章都要表达作者对生活的看法或情感，作者是通过文章中的词语、句子来表达基本意思和情感的。
问题的主要形式有：
联系上下文，揣摩文中画线句子，想想这些语言表现人物怎样的感情？
三、谈谈自己的体会。这类句子多是文章的论点、观点、议论句、抒情句、主旨句等，多以主观题出现。
问题的主要形式有：
请联系你的生活体验，谈谈你对画线语句的理解。
联系全文，你如何理解画线句，这句话对你有什么启发？请联系实际谈谈自己的体会。
四、指出句子在文中的表达作用。这类句子多是在文章结构中起着关键作用，比如过渡衔接、前后照应、揭示主旨、升华主题等。 问题的主要形式有：
文中画线句子在文章中起什么作用？
请从第x段摘抄与第y段中画线部分照应的文字。
解答方法：
不同文体的文章，其重要句子的侧重点多有不同。例如，记叙文要求侧重理解文中交代要素的句子，叙述中穿插的精彩的议论、抒情的句子；议论文要求侧重理解表明观点的句子，论述精辟的句子；文学作品要求侧重理解文中对刻画人物、反映主题有重要作用的句子。对于这类试题的解答，解题的时候可以借助下面这则顺口溜：
关键词语很重要，理解句子离不了。句子若是总领句，须从下文去搜索。 句子若是总结句，答案须要往上溯。句子若是过渡句，须要关注上下文。 句子表达有特点，揣摩目的和效果。以上方法记住了，答题才能有依托。 根据这则顺口溜，我们答题时可运用以下四种方法：
1．从句子中的关键词语入手，通过对其语境意义的把握来理解句子的含义。
关键词，是在句子中起关键作用、核心作用的词语。关键与否，不是取决于是属于生字新词，而是看其在具体的语言环境中的地位。理解句子可通过抓关键词，运用替换词语的方法来揣摩句子在文中的表达效果和目的。（这个方法比较适用于具有象征含义的句子，里面有关键词象征着特定的含义）
例如：《哲学家的最后一课》中有这样一句话：“要想根除旷野里的杂草，方法只有一种，那就是在上面种上庄稼。同样，要想铲除灵魂里的杂草，惟一的方法就是用美德去占据它。 ”在理解这个句子的时候，可以用一个词语去替换 “灵魂里的杂草”。经过分析，找到了许多可以替换的词语，如“不良的思想”、“坏思想”、“不健康的想法”、“邪念”等等。通过替换词语，整个句子的含义就显而易见了。
2．从分析句子在文中的位置入手。理解重要句子的含义，常需要查看它在文中的位置。句子在文中的位置，对理解句子的含义至关重要。如果是总领句，理解它必须从它的下文去搜索相关信息；如果是总结句，此时就须上溯，从上文寻找相关信息，确定答案要点；如果是过渡句，就要密切关注上下文段的内容，准确理解它的内涵。
文章中具体句子含义的理解必须把句子放在文章具体语境中来辨析，通过对具体句子前后句含义的分析，来弄清所问语句的含义。一般来说，对所要解释的具体句子，答案就在前面的句子或后面的句子中，或者是原句，或者需要考生稍微变通一下即可。
例如：《哈尔威船长》中有这样一个句子：“面对死亡，他又一次运用
了成为一名英雄的权利。 ”从字面上看，这个句子很简单，没有难懂的词。我们在分析这个句子所在的语段后，就辨析出：哈尔威船长是一位忠于职守、舍己为人的英雄。当然，这样的理解还是不到位的，因为忽略了“又一次”这一关键点。通过对上文的阅读，明白了句子的深层含义：哈尔威船长一生都严格要求自己，履行做人之道。在灾难突然到来的时候，他选择了以身殉职，再一次体现了他忠于职守、舍己为人的伟大精神。这样的理解就深入到位了，只要用自己的语言组织一下答案就可以了。
3，从分析句子的表达特点入手。有些句子在表达上具有显著的特点，比如，有些句子打破常规，采用超常的组合方式；有些句子运用了一定的表现手法和表达方式（先抑后扬、寓情于景、情景交融、虚实结合、动静结合……）；有些句子运用了一定的修辞方法；……对以上这样的句子，要从分析它们的表达特点入手，明确它们运用了怎样的手法或技巧，这些修辞或表现手法背后有什么含义，进而通过这些含义揣摩它们的表达目的或表达效果，这样，会对句子有较深刻的理解。
,4. 把握中心，整体领悟
任何一篇文章都有中心，因为无论记认、叙事、状物或抒情，都是为了表达作者对生活的一定看法或情感，作者通过文章内容所表达的基本意思和情感就是文章的中心。一般说来，需要我们去理解的句子，有的是针对全文说的，这就需要我们从整体上去把握文章中心，以对全文的理解作为理解句子的依托。我们说，通览全文，把握中心，整体领悟，是正确解答这类题目的基础。
例如：在《小橘灯》中，作者写到小橘灯发出 “朦胧的橘红的光”，初一看，这句话没什么深意，但你从全文来看就不同了，这句话除了字面上的意思外，还象征着那个做小橘灯的姑娘有着美好的心灵。这层含义，单单在这个句子中是看不出来的，应从全文着眼才能体会得到。
有些文章，寓深刻的道理于平凡的小事中，其中有些句子就需要着眼于全文的中心，从整体上领会和感悟全文的主旨才能理解。
