选项中有两项为多余选项。
They Just Can't Help ItMy theory is that the female brain is mainly built for empathy —the ability to understand other people —and that the male brain is mainly built for building systems. ________ For example, women are more likely to read magazines on fashion and parenting, while men will choose magazines that feature computers and sport.You may think that these preferences are influenced by the way people are taught to behave when they are growing up. However, this is not the case. A new study carried out at Cambridge University shows that newborn girls look longer at a face, and newborn boys look longer at a mobile. ________ It has also been observed that girls are better at noticing signs of changes in other people's feelings. Boys, however, seem to enjoy building toy towers and playing with toys which have clear functions. ________ People whose jobs are in the construction industries are almost male. Math and engineering, which require high levels of systems-thinking, are also male-chosen disciplines. Why do men and women have the difference? Actually women have four times as many brain neurons (神经) that connect the right and left part of their brains. Because of it, women have a better ability to multitask than men. ________ Men tend to focus on a limited number of problems at a time. They will separate themselves from problems and view tasks as independent from one another.Some people may worry that I am suggesting one gender (性别) is better than the other, but this is not the case. My theory says that males and females differ in the kinds of things that they find easy, but that both genders have their strengths and weaknesses. ________ It is not true. The study simply looks at males and females as two groups, and asks what differences exist, and why they are there.A. Generally speaking, there are clear differences.B. Their preference for building systems may change over time.C. You can see the same kind of pattern in the adult workplace.D. They will consider many sources of information at the same time.E. It is important to stress that the female brain may be built more for empathy.F. That suggests certain differences between male and female brains are biological.G. Others may think the theory creates a belief of what a particular type of person is like.【答案】 A；F；C；D；G【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，阐述男性与女性差异各有优缺点。
高三英语二轮复习专题一 强化练(七)
强化练(七)主旨大意题(2)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2023·浙江五校联考)On Mondays, two of my children get ready for school in an unusual way.Each packs plenty of food and water, a pair of rubber boots and sometimes a cup of hot chocolate.Then, I drop them off at a nearby park where they spend the entire day outside at a certified forest school.When I first let them sign up for the forest school program，I loved the idea, but as a mum，I was concerned about a few things: Would they be comfortable outside for that long? Would they stay engaged for that many hours? Then I asked them if time ever seemed to move slowly，they stared at me in confusion.They didn't understand my question, which fittingly removed my concern.In this program, kids direct their own play，climbing tall trees or testing ice on the frozen lake.They are never told their play is too high or too sharp, but are rather trusted toself-adjust.Something else my sons appreciate about the forest school is not being told to move on to the next activity, but being left to stay in a particular spot for as long as their curiosity allows.“What about all the things they're missing in real school？”concerned parents have asked me.Neither of their classroom teachers thinks it's a problem, but most significantly, my kids are learning new and different skills that a classroom cannot teach.They are learning to sit silently and observe nature up close—a skill that's virtually impossible to develop in a noisy and overcrowded classroom setting.They are making social connections across a broader range of age groups.They cooperate together, using their different sizes and strengths to fulfill various roles within their games.I appreciate it that the forest school is shaping my boys' relationship with theoutdoors.They're learning how to spend extended periods of time in nature, what to do to pass the time，and developing knowledge that will get them much closer to nature in the coming decades.1．What is special about the forest school program?A．Teachers engage in kids' play.B．Kids play and learn outdoors.C．It focuses on nature protection.D．It offers various foods and drinks.2．How did the author feel about kids' reaction to her question?A．Awkward. B．Concerned.C．Relieved. D．Proud.3．What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?A．The concerns caused by the program.B．The benefits gained from role-play.C．The skills acquired by children.D．The games loved by teachers.4．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．Nature：a Wonderland for the YoungB．The Forest School Program Proves a HitC．Parks Are Replacing Traditional SchoolsD．Forest School：a Fine Place for My Kids[语篇解读]本文主要讲述了作者的两个儿子在森林学校项目中的收获以及该项目的好处。

高考英语二轮复习阅读训练及答案
高考英语二轮复习阅读训练及答案高考英语二轮复习阅读训练1：What should you think about when trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at metalwork or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills. If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is better to face any weakness than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.46. We can infer from the first paragraph that ________.learning better at school shows power in your jobthe better you are at school subjects, the more helpful they are in your career.learning each subject well is an ability in many jobs.we should think about how to find our career47. From the passage we learn that if a students school performance is not good, he will _____.A. have no hope in his future workB. be hopeful to find a suitable jobC. regret not having worked harder at schoolD. have an opportunity of a new beginning in his future work48. All the subjects may have direct value for job hunting except _________.A. mathematicsB. EnglishC. historyD. technical drawing49. The underlined phrase “be all thumbs” (in Paragraph 3) probably means “_________”.A. heavy- handedB. the bestC. importantD. skilled50. The passage mainly discusses ___________.A. The relationship between school performance and careerB. how to get a jobC. How to show strengths in your workD. working experience and knowledge at school二轮复习阅读训练答案：46- 50 BDCAA高考英语二轮复习阅读训练2：In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity, others say that competition is bad; that it sets one person against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.I have taught many children who held the belief that their self –worth relied (依赖) on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life – and – death affairs. In their single – minded pursuit (追求) of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which values only the winner andpays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to se ek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesnt matter because I really didnt try.” What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot. Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that ones self – respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve (缓解) can we discovera new meaning in competition.41.What does this passage mainly talk about?petition helps to set up self – respect.B.Opinions about competition are different among people.petition is harmful to personal quality development.D.Failures are necessary experiences in competition42.Why do some people favor competition according to the passage?A.It pushes society forward.B.It builds up a sense of duty.C.It improves personal abilities.D.It encourages individual efforts.43.The underlined phrase “the most vocal” in Paragraph 3 means .A.those who try their best to winB.those who value competition most highlyC.those who are against competition most stronglyD.those who rely on others most for success44.What is the similar belief of the true competitors and those witha desire to fail ?A.Ones worth lies in his performance compared with others.B.Ones success in competition needs great efforts.C.Ones achievement is determined by his particular skills.D.Ones success is based on how hard he has tried.45.Which point of view may the author agree to?A.Every effort should be paid back.petition should be encouraged.C.Winning should be a life – and – death matter.D.Fear of failure should be removed in competition.二轮复习阅读训练答案：41.B 42.A 43.C 44.A 45.D。

2021届高三英语二轮(èr lún)专项训练：阅读理解〔60〕阅读以下短文，从每一小题所给的四个选项〔A、B、C、D〕中选出最正确选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AThere are many colors in nature. But do you know if a color has weight? I think you’ll say “no〞. But I am afraid you are wrong. If you don’t believe, you may do a small e xperiment.First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the box. Third, wrap one box with a red piece of paper, the other with a white piece of paper. OK. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier.Why do you think so? A scientist found that different colors have different weight in a man’s mind. So he did man y tests and at lasthe got the result. That is to say, every color has its own weight in our mind and their order is the same. The heaviest color is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white.The scientist told us that colors also have smell. Can you smell the color? Of course not. Then why did the scientist say so? That is because every color stands for a kind of light with a certain wavelength. It reaches our brain through sense organs .According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colors they like, and refuse the colors they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by us ing the colors you like. Or you’ll be nervous or even get ill. For example, if you stay in a room with red windows, wallpapers and furniture for two hours, you’ll feel you have been there for four hours.But if the room is blue, you’ll feel you have been t here for only an hour.Another example, if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room, his temperature will fall. That means our body temperature will change with different colors.1. The purpose of the second paragraph is to tell us ___________.A. a red box is heavier than a white oneB. a color has weight in one’s mindC. white paper is lighter than red paperD. you can know the weight of a color by holding it2. Why did the scientist say colors have smell?A. Because people can sense the light from colors.B. Because we can smell colors with our nose.C. Because every color has its own sweet smell.D. Because every color can give off light of the same length.3. If a person walks from a blue room to a red room, his body temperature will ___________.A. riseB. fallC. stay the sameD. change now and then4. It can be implied from the text that ___________.A. colors have orders in weightB. colors can change the weight of an objectC. people would stay longer in a room with red windowsD. colors can affect our mood and health5. This passage is probably a ___________.A. book reviewB. fiction novelC. fairy taleD. science reportBPop stars today enjoy what once only belonged to the royalty (皇室(huángshì)). Wherever they go, people turn out in their thousands to greet them.The crowds go wild trying to catch a brief glimpse of their smiling, colorfully dressed idols. The stars are transported in their chauffeur driven Rolls Royces, private helicopters or executive aeroplanes. They are surrounded by a permanent entourage(随从) of managers, press agents and bodyguards. Photographs of them appear regularly in the press and all their comings and goings are reported，for, like royalty, pop stars are news. If they enjoy many of the privileges of royalty, they certainly share many of the inconveniences as well. It is dangerous for them to make unscheduled appearances in public. They must be constantly shielded from the adoring crowds who idolize them. They are no longer private individuals, but public property. The financial rewards they receive for this sacrifice cannot be calculated, for their rates of pay are great.And why not? Society has always rewarded its top entertainers lavishly. The great days of Hollywood have become legendary: famous stars enjoyed fame, wealth and adulation (奉承(fèng cheng)) on an all time scale. By today’ s standards, the excesses of Hollywood do not seem quite so spectacular. A single gramophone record nowadays may earn much more in royalties than the films of the past ever did. The competition for the title “Top of the Pops〞 is fierce, but the rewards are truly huge.It is only right that the stars should be paid in this way. Don’t the top men in industry earn enormous salaries for the service they perform to their companies and their countries? Pop stars earn vast sums in foreign currency —often more than large industrial companies —and the taxman can only be grateful for their massive annual contributions to the exchequer(国库). So who would begrudge them their rewards?It’s all very well for people in boring jobs to complain about the successes and rewards of others. People who make envious remarks should remember that the most famous stars represent only the tip of the iceberg. For every famous star, there are hundreds of others struggling to earn a living. Aman working in a steady job and looking forward to a pension at the end of it has no right to expect very high rewards. He has chosen security and peace of mind, so there will always be a limit to what he can earn. But a man who attempts to become a star is taking enormous risks. He knows at the outset that only a handful of competitors ever get to the very top. He knows that years of concentrated effort may be rewarded with complete failure. But he knows, too, that the rewards for success are very high indeed: they are the payback for the huge risks involved and once he makes it, he will certainly earn them. That’ s the essence of private enterprise.6．The author develops the passage mainly by ________.A. comparing different ideasB. giving explanationsC. inferringD. listing typical examples7. The underlined word “begrudge〞 in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to ______.A. be jealous ofB. be satisfied withC. be anxious aboutD. be crazy about8．According to the passage, which of the following can match the view of the author?A. He who laughs last laughs best.B. If you venture nothing, you will gain nothing.C. He who makes no mistakes makes nothing.D. Success belongs to the persevering.9．The author holds a(n) ________attitude towards the high income of pop stars.A. criticalB. approvalC. optimisticD. indifferent10．Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. People are blind in idolizing stars.B. There is fierce competition in becoming pop stars.C. The government taxes pop stars very little.D. Pop stars’ life is more luxurious than that of royalty.CThe world is not coming to an end on December 21, 2021, the US space agency insisted Monday in a rare campaign to dispel widespread rumors fueled by the Internet and a new Hollywood movie.The latest big screen offering from Sony Picture, 2021, arrives in theaters on Friday, with a 200million dollar production about the end of the world supposedly based on myths (虚构(xūgòu)的故事) backed by the Mayan calendar. It is claimed that the end of time will come as a Planet X — or Nibiru — heads toward or collides with the Earth.Some websites accuse NASA of hiding the truth on the planet’ s existence, but the US space agency denounced such stories as an “Internet hoax(恶作剧) 〞. “There is no factual basis for these claims，〞 NASA said in a question and answer posting on its website. “If such a collision were real, astronomers would have been tracking it for at least the past decade, and it would be visible by now to the naked eye. Obviously, it does not exist. Credible scientists worldwide know of no threat associated with 2021, 〞 it insisted. “After all, our planet has been getting alo ng just well for more than four billion years，〞 added NASA.There is another planet, Eris, floating in space. But the small planet similar to Pluto will remain safely fixed in the outer solar system and it can come no closer than four billion miles to the Earth, according to NASA.Initial theories set the disaster for May 2021, but when nothing happened the date was moved forward to the winter in 2021 to coincide with the end of a cycle of the ancient Mayan calendar.NASA insisted the Mayan calendar in fact does not end on December 21, 2021,as another period begins immediately afterward.And even if the planets were to line up as some have forecast, the effect on our planet would be “negligible〞， NASA said.“And while comets and asteroids (小行星) have always hit the Earth, big hits are very rare，〞 NASA noted. The last major impact was believed to be 65 million years ago，resulting in the end of dinosaurs.“We have already determined that there are no threatening asteroids as large as the one that killed the dinosaurs，〞 the space agency said.11．________played a key role in the spread of the rumors.A. A new bookB. The Internet and a new Hollywood movieC. NASAD. An Indian calendar12．The film 2021 is________.A. about the end of the worldB. based on the scientific predictionC. well accepted in the science fieldD. about a romantic love story13．We can infer that________.A. people didn’t take the rumor seriouslyB. Planet X — or Nibiru does existC. astronomers have been tracking Planet X for over ten yearsD. the rumor caused a panic among some people14．NASA thinks that Eris________.A. might pose a threat to the EarthB. doesn’t pose any threat to the EarthC. is too far away to be visibleD. is similar to our planet, where life might exist15. Which of the following is the best title?A. New Hollywood movie 2021B. December 21, 2021, NOT the end of the worldC. End of the ancient Mayan calendarD. How rumors came into beingDThe early 1900s were very different from today. Toys, though they have evolved in many ways, were still the delight of children everywhere.Theodore Roosevelt’s Presidency marks the beginning of the “Teddy Bear.〞In the year 1902,toy bears were named “Teddy〞 after the president’s nickname. The Teddy Bear became known worldw ide, and is still known and loved today. It was only a few years later thatthe Teddy Bears were mass produced.In 1913,an item called the Erector Set was invented. It was a steel, motorized toy that children could use to build models of anything. Its creator was A.C.Gilbert, a medical doctor.Charles Pajeau created a similar wooden set called Tinker Toys in the year 1914.Tinker Toys were made for younger children.Raggedy Ann dolls first came on the scene after newspapercartonist Johnny Gruelle reproduced the doll he made for his daughter. That was in 1915.The following year, an architect’s son named John Lloyd Wright, invented Lincoln Logs, which were interlocked to make structures.Two years after Mickey Mouse was created, stuffed(填塞(tiánsāi))Mickey Mo use dolls were made by Charlotte Clark. This was the start of Disney merchandise.The yo-yo became popular in the United States after Donald Duncan bought a yo-yo company in 1929.The View-Master, a three dimensional viewer, was developed by a camera enthusiast named William Gruber. The toy became popular when Gruber licensed Disney characters to make still,3-D images from Disney movies and television programs.Finally, in 1940,model airplanes were mass produced. They started out as a way for manufacturers to sell planes to the military, but later caught on as a toy.The toys that we know and love today have had their roots from these ancient times. Isn’t it interesting to know that if it hadn’t been for all these creative people, most of the games you know today would never have been?16. Why were toy bears named “Teddy〞?A. To be suitable for mass production.B. To be easily pronounced by children.C. To meet the advertisers’ needs.D. To memorize President Theodore Roosevelt.17. In which aspect do the toys created by Gilbert differ from those by Charles?A. ShapeB. Material usedC. ThemesD. Price18. When did the View-Master become popular?A. After William Gruber was born.B. After Gruber licensed Disney characters.C. Two years after Mickey Mouse was created.D. When Disney merchandise was started.19. From the last paragraph we can learn that .A. those people who created these games should never be forgottenB. some toys created in ancient times now disappearC. creativity exists in every field all the timeD. toys nowadays are totally different from those in ancient times.20. What does the passage talk about?A. The function of toys.B. The history of Disney characters.C. Toys in the early 1900s.D. The financial meaning of toys.BAABD BABBB BADBB DBBAC内容总结（1）2021届高三英语二轮专项训练：阅读理解〔60〕阅读以下短文，从每一小题所给的四个选项〔A、B、C、D〕中选出最正确选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

高考英语二轮复习专题阅读理解精选1So long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning, they will continue to undertake to do for children that which only children can do for themselves. Teaching children to read is not passing reading on to them・ It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that "reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible^.Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also public activity. It can be seen and observed.Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make sense of the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public scrutiny.If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable ,what then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the quest （探索）for knowledge? Smith has one principal rule for all teaching instructions. "Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children."When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are, and when both teacher and learner fulfill them appropriately, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated.

Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.Man has been polluting the earth. The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in a place, men moved to another place. But this is no longer true. Man is slowly polluting the whole world.Air pollution is still the most serious. It’s bad to all living things in the world, but it is not only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us become angry more easily.Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop the people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from blowing dirty smoke into the air.The pollution of SO2 is now the most dangerous problem of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. It is certain that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.The earth is our home. We must take care of it. That means keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must be careful of the rise in population at the same time.( ) 1.Our world is becoming much smaller .A. because the earth is being polluted day and nightB. because science is developingC. because of the rise in populationD. because the earth is blown away by the wind every year( ) 2.Thousands of years ago, life was it is today.A. much easier thanB. as easy asC. as hard asD. much harder than( ) 3.Pollution comes in many ways.

The two climbers were climbing anice-covered wall of the mountain when they suddenly lost their footing and fell about 560 feet to a narrow snow-covered ledge (悬崖突出部分) below. “We were lucky that ledge was there,” said the climbers. “Otherwise, we would have fallen over 2000 feet.” If the ledge had not been there, the two climbers would almost certainly have met their death. “It’s a wonder,” the climbers said, “that we landed on the ledge, and the snow was loose enough to cushion(缓冲) our fall. We are thankful that we survived.”When a reporter asked them if they planned to give up mountain climbing after their narrow escape, the two climbers replied, “Not at all. We’ll be going back up there just as soon as we get out of the hospital.”( ) 4.The mountain climbers survived because ____.A. they had fallen only 5000 feet downB. of the ledge and the loose snow on itC. of their strong bodiesD. they were very good climbers( ) 5.If there had not been the snow-covered ledge, ____.A. they wouldn’t have fallen downB. they would have been woundedC. they would have lost their livesD. they would fall into the deep snow( ) 6.How high was the ledge from the foot of the mountain?A.25600 feet highB. 2000 feet highC.25530 feet highD.

For example, Jenny is the name of a student from England. England is the name of her country. Cities and towns have names, too. Schools and office buildings also have names. All things have names. For example, tomato, potato and bean are names of vegetable. Apple, orange and banana are names of fruits. Names are important.We use names every day. When we meet a new person, we usually ask: "What's your name?" It's important to learn a person's name. Most people have two names. Some people have more names. Names are different all over the world. In Jenny's class, Jenny must learn the names of students from all over the world. This is very difficult because the names are different.In the USA, most people have a first name, a middle name, and a last name. Parents choose the first and middle names for their baby. There are names for boys and names for girls. For example, John, Peter, Tom and Mike are all names for boys. Elizabeth, Betty, Susan, and Mary are all names for girls. The last name is the family name. Usually it is the father's family name. In a family, the mother, the father, and the children usually have the same last name.Sometimes a person has a nickname, too. A nickname is a special name. It is not a person's real name. Abraham Lincoln's nickname was 'Honest Abe'. An honest person always tells the truth, and Abe is short for Abraham. Because he was an honest person, his nickname was 'Honest Abe '. Pele is a nickname, too. The football player's real name is Edison Arantes de Nascimento, but everyone calls him Pele. Do you have a nickname?Names are different all over the world. They can be long or short, but they are always very important.( ) 12.Why does everything have a name? Because .A. it is very interesting to have a nameB. it is very easy to be rememberedC. it is very easy to be told from othersD. both B and C( ) 13.It is difficult to learn names all over the world because .A. there are many names all over the worldB. the names in different countries are differentC. some names are very short, some are very longD. some people have nicknames( ) 14.Which of the following is true?A. It's easy for Jenny to learn the names of her classmates.B. There is no difference between girls' names and boy's names.C. Jenny doesn't want to learn the names very well.D. It's difficult to learn the names because they are different.( ) 15.What names are for girls?A. George, Linda, SusanB. Tom, Jill, CandyC. Elizabeth, Betty, MaryD. Peter, Jeff, Jack参考答案：DBDC第二节（共5 小题；每小题2.5 分，满分12.5 分）Helping Students Find Their Writing V oicesOne of the most frustrating things for writing teachers is reading papers that simply lack style. When all of the research has been completed and all of the sentences are structured well, but the paper still lacks some pizzazz（活力），it can be boring to grade. If you are searching for ways to help your students find their voices, why not try making students themselves the topic of the writing?1 .Who are you?One of the most difficult questions for students to answer is “Who are you?” 2 In doing this, through writing, students will start to see their personalities differently and, hopefully, be able to add a feature to their writing.Dear John3 Encourage them to write to a famous person they’ve always admired, and then the one they absolutely hate. Explore how their language changes between the two letters. Whenstudents know their audiences, it is much easier for them to add the kind of personality their audience wants to see．4 When students write about what matters most to them, they will often give you the best writing you’ve ever seen. You’ll get those when you ask questions that hit home. When students have something to say about a given topic, it can be easier for them to get their ideas down and then work on their writing style.Get the words on paper, and then edit themThe most valuable lesson students can learn is to write first, and edit later. Have students write for five minutes about their topics. If they can get their ideas down on paper, that’s 90% of the battle.5 This can help them realize that, once they have the ideas down, the rest is just fine tuning（微调）. Once they have this skill mastered, it’s easy for them to start adding their own personal voices to their papers.A.What matters to you?B. What style is taught in class?C. When they write about themselves, students’ voices often shine through.D. Writing letters is a great way for students to explore their writing style.E. Have your students explore who they are and what makes them unique.F. V oice is that magical quality which is able to make a creative writing idea sing!G. After that, have them edit these ideas into a really strong introductory paragraph.参考答案：CEDAG。
