If we do these, we’ll考单招——上高职单招网cut teen smoking by almost half over the next five years .That means if we act now, we have it in our power to stop 3 million children from smoking and to save a million lives as a result.9.

My grandparents were coming by plane to hear me play. Even my busy Aunt Dianne, who is on TV every night reading the news, was coming.But one thing was for sure. I would never win an award for my piano playing. And that’s just because the more I practiced, the more nervous I got. So there I was, on stage, in my beautiful dress, and I sat down at the piano. But when I started to play, I hit a wrong note. I told myself to start over. But then I hit the wrong note again. It was as if I hadn’t practiced at all.考单招——上高职单招网Finally the disaster was over. I ran off the stage. I couldn’t understand why people were applauding (鼓掌). But they were. My mom and dad had flowers for me, and we were all supposed to go out for a nice dinner, but I couldn’t. I just wanted to go home and cry and never go anywhere again. After we went back home, Aunt Dianne just came in and sat down on the side of my bed.“It was my first night on the air，”she said. “I had never beenon television before, and I made a mistake. I mispronounced my name and the name of the news show. And you know what? No one even noticed but me. Just like tonight, no one noticed－just you.” Aunt Dianne was right. I think we are harder on ourselves than anyone else is. Maybe I will leave my room. And maybe, I’ll play the piano again.12.

2016年福建省高职单招英语考试大纲(普通高中)

2016年福建省高职单招英语考试大纲（普通高中）本考试大纲以教育部颁布的《普通高中英语课程标准（实验）》（以下简称《课程标准》）的七级要求和福建省教育厅颁布的《福建省普通高中新课程英语学科教学实施指导意见（试行）》为依据，并结合我省普通高中新课程英语教学实际而制定。

Ⅰ考试范围和要求一、语言知识为了体现普通高中新课程的理念和要求及命题科学性、合理性的需要，本《考试大纲》收录了《课程标准》附录中的语音、语法、功能意念、话题等项目表。

为了减轻学生负担，根据我省的实际情况，对《课程标准》附录词汇表中的七级词汇约2500个单词进行了分层调整，共收入要求掌握的词汇约1950个，要求理解的词汇约550个（详见附录五，以及数词、月份、星期、常见主要国家名称及相关信息等词汇（详见附录六、七、八、九）。

二、语言运用(一)听力听力不作要求，不列入考试范围。

(二)阅读理解阅读是我国考生接触英语，了解英语国家的文化，培养跨文化交际意识的主要途径，是高中英语教学和测试评价的重点。

因此，阅读理解在试卷中所占权重较大。

该部分要求考生读懂公告、说明、广告以及书、报、杂志中关于一般性话题的简短文章。

考生应能：1.理解文章主旨要义任何一篇文章都有一个主旨要义。

有时从文章的第一个段落，甚至第一个句子即可得出文章的主旨要义。

从这一段或这个句子读者会知道文章描述的是谁或什么(即文章的主题)，也会了解作者希望读者了解主题哪些方面的内容。

有时则需从文章的字里行间进行推断。

这类试题主要考查考生略读文章、领会大意的能力，它对考生的归纳、概括能力(如确定文章的标题)有一定的要求。

2.理解文中具体信息文章主题和中心思想的阐述往往需要大量细节信息的支持，这些细节对于理解全文内容至关重要，同时也是归纳和概括文章中心思想的基础。

命题人员往往会要求考生根据不同的要求阅读文章，以获得某些特定的信息，或准确地寻找所需的细节。

这类试题的答案有时比较直接，理解字面意思即可答题；有时则较为间接，需要归纳、概括和推理才能答题。
