Kindergarten students are typically four or five years of age.In class,they are introduced to the alphabet,numbers and colors; they study their bodies,their families,and their communities;they listen to stories and read aloud; they make art projects; and they learn about holidays,plants,animals,and other topics in science and social studies.Some kindergartens also teach introductory reading and mathematical skills.Kindergartens tend to offer children a foundation for the development of social skills,self-confidence,motivation,and the process of knowing.The first kindergarten was started by German educator Friedrich Froebel in 177 in Blankenburg,Prussia(now part of German).Froebel chose the German term kindergarten(children’s garden) because he intended children in his school to grow as freely as flowers in a garden.Froebel’s kindergarten was based on the idea that children’s play was significant.At the time,almost no children under the age of seven attended school,but Froebel designed his kindergarten for children between the ages of three and seven.The kindergarten became widely admired for its revolutionary teaching method s,and Froebel’s followers soon established other kindergartens based on his educational philosophy.Froebel developed his own ideas about education by combining his belief in scientific observation with his belief in the interconnection of all things.In addition,Froebel was concerned that the spread of industrialization would negatively affect the family,but he b elieved that kindergartens could increase the status of mothers and children.Froebel’ s ideas became increasingly popular in the 180s,but because kindergartens were associated with liberalism(自由主义) and free-thinking,they were banned by the Prussian government after the failure of the liberal revolution of 188.Basic facts aboutkindergarten1. ofkindergartenstudentsFour or five yearsThings to be learntin a kindergarten●They’re introduced to the alphabet,numbers,andcolors;they study their bodies,their families,and theircommunities.●They listen to stories and read aloud;they make artprojects.●They learn about holidays,plants,animals,and othertopics in science and social st udies.●Some kindergartens also teach introductory 2.and m athematical skills.续表Basic facts about kindergartenRoles ofkindergarten●It offers children a foundation to 3. their socialskills,self-confidence,motivation and the process ofknowing.Details about thefirstkindergarten●German educator Friedrich Froebel was the 4.of the firstkindergarten.●Froebel chose the name because he wanted kids to grow 5..●His kindergarten was based on the idea that children’s 6. wassignificant.●The kindergarten was well 7. for its revolutionary teachingmethods.Froebel’s ideas about 8. ●He 9. his belief in scientific observation with his belief in theinterconnection of all things.●Froebel was concerned that the spread of industrialization would have 10.effects on the family.●Kindergartens could increase the status of mothers and children.答案及剖析:1.Age 信息综合题。

英语高考第二轮复习专题开放作文
2009英语高考第二轮复习专题开放作文一、题型解读所谓“开放作文”(Open-ending Composition)，是相对于我们过去一直沿用的“书面表达”这种指导性写作(Guided Writing)而言的。
与传统的“书面表达”相比，“开放作文”是一种限制相对较少、留给考生更多自由发挥空间的、考查学生书面表达能力的一种时新题型。
该题型于2003年北京市高考英语中首先试行，经过2004~2006年的进一步探索和完善，近两年高考英语“北京卷开放作文”模式渐趋成熟，并基本定型。
该题型要求考生根据一定提示(一般是一段20余字的英文提示和一副图画)，写一篇短文；词数不少于50。
如此设计该题型目的是要求考生充分发挥想象力和创造力，自由拓展主题，组织篇章结构，这样既能体现出学生活跃的思维，又能表现出他们的逻辑思维能力和灵活运用英语的能力，从而把对考生的写作能力的考查上升到了一个新的高度。
考查并研究近六年高考英语“北京卷”真题，我们可以看出，“开放作文”常考文体有两种：记叙文(如2004年“北京卷”真题)和议论文(如2005~2008年“北京卷”真题)。
“记叙式开放作文”一般给出一段材料，然后要求考生沿着材料的纵横发展方向，充分发挥想像力，拓展原材料内容；再次运用逻辑推理方法，进行谋篇布局；最后串词成句，联句成文。
概言之，“记叙式开放作文”要求考生灵活处理所给材料，做到综合分析，辩证思考，提炼观点，力求论点合理，论据充分，论证严密。
“议论式开放作文”则要求考生根据所提供的信息材料(一般为图画)，在描述图画信息之余，发挥自己的想象，展开简单的议论，并略谈自己的观点和看法。
概言之，“议论式开放作文”要求考生围绕所给图片信息，简要描述，辩证思考，提炼观点，力求论点合理，发人深思。
值得注意的是：与2003~2004年的“续写型记叙式开放作文”不同，近四年来，北京卷“开放作文”倾向于“就图论事”、“就图明理”。
可以说，“议论式开放作文”与现在流行的新课改、新课程、新课标非常吻合，也与流行的研究性学习、探究性学习非常一致，既迎合了当前教学潮流，又对潮流有一定的引领和推动作用。
