Different people have different opinions on this matter. As far as I am concerned, the government is taking steps to protect our living environment. It’s true that plastic bags make people’s shopping more convenient. However, most people just throw them away after using them, and don’t know how to deal with them. What’s more, it will take a long time for plastic bags to break down. As a result, they can cause serious pollution and do great harm to our surroundings, then to people’s health. Personally speaking, I fully agree with this policy. After all, it is good for our environment. And we could use bags made of paper or cloth instead of plastic bags when shopping. 30.话题:自然 常用词汇: hurricane 飓风 storm 风暴 thunderstorm 雷雨 earthquake 地震 flood 水灾 typhoon 台风 panic 惊慌 volcano 火山 erupt 爆发 eruption 爆发 atmosphere 大气层 temperature 温度 disaster 灾难 lightning 闪电 safe 安全的 matter事情 message 消息 damage损害 warming 警告 predict 预测 affect 影响 environment 环境the power of nature 自然的力量 scientific equipment 科学仪器 the local people 当地人 burn to the ground 烧毁 thick forest 茂密的森林 nature reserve 自然保护区 all over the world 全世界 31.话题:人际关系 常用词汇: harmonious 和谐的 friendly 友好的 civilized 文明的 honest 真诚的credible诚信的 be public-spirited 有公德心的 be in order 有序的 peaceful 和平的 help each other 互助 care for each other 互相关心 learn from each other 互相学习 build 创建 cherish珍惜 take an active part in 积极参与 promote the friendship 增进友谊improve the relationship 改善关系 show love and concern for sb 爱护和关心某人build a good relationship 建立良好的关系 trust each other 彼此信任 communicate with 交流、沟通 the harmonious relationship between teachers and students 师生之间的和谐关系 范例: Don’t hesitate to say “No” It is very difficult to say “No” to a request, especially to a request from a close friend. However, on some occasions, you have to say “No”. For example, suppose one friend of yours asks you to take exams for him, and he promises to offer you some material benefits. To such request, definitely, you should say “No”. In real life, there are many people who do not say “No” when they should do so. There are several reasons for this practice .One important one is that they fear they would lose the friend. When we should say “No”, don’t hesitate to say so. Otherwise you do harm to both you and the one who made the request. For example, if someone bribes you and you don’t say “No” to it, both of you may end up in prison. So do not hesitate to say “No”, when you need to do so. 32.话题:现代技术 常用词汇: science 科学 science and technology 科学技术 information 信息 email 电子邮件 robot 机器人 screen 荧光屏 mouse 鼠标 operate 操作 application 应用 invent 发明 invention 发明 smart 聪明的 electronic 电子的 laptop 手提电脑 equipment设备 software 软件 data 数据 database 数据库 battery电池 chip芯片 digital数字的 fax 传真 remote 遥远的 engineer 工程师 update 更新 virus 病毒 test out the theory by experiment 用实验检验理论 turn out 结果是…… 范例: Blogging has become increasingly popular among middle school students. Some view it as a great way to share ideas and motivate students, while others fear it will interfere with students’ study. There are arguments both for and against student-blogging. On the negative side, if students blog too frequently it may interfere with their study. And if they are completely unsupervised, some inappropriate topics may be discussed. On the other hand, blogging allows students the chance to write about the things that are most important to them. Because they are interested in those topics, they will be more motivated to write, thus practicing their skills. It will also give the blog-readers the chance to practice their reading skills, too. Of course, there have to be some limits such as parents monitoring their children to make sure they don’t spend too much time on it and the subjects discussed are suitable. 33.话题:地理—海洋 常用词汇: sea 海 ocean 海洋 water 水 waterway 水道 river 河流 underground water 地下水 waves 波浪 deep 深的 shallow 浅的 dirty 脏的 fresh water 淡水 serious严重的still 平静的 terrible 可怕的 sea port 海港 bank 岸 beach 沙滩 surface 水面 waves 波浪sea animals and plants 海洋动植物 范例: Beihai Aquatic Products Museum(北海水产品展示馆) is located in the Seashore Park of Beihai City. Opened to the public in 1978, it is regarded as the largest aquatic products museum in China. Besides the sea animals and plants in South China Sea which are common in any kind of aquatic products museum, this museum also gives visitors an opportunity to see some special ones. A Dugong(美人鱼), which is quite rare on earth now, about 2 meters long, is now on display in the Sea Animal Hall. Some sea animals, such as the Chinese White Dolphin, which are protected by the Chinese government, are also on exhibition. 34.话题:社会 常用词汇: harmonious 和谐的 friendly友好的 civilized文明的 honest真诚的 credible 可信的 be public-spirited有公德心的 balanced 平衡的 be in order有序的 peaceful和平的 live in harmony生活和谐 sustainable development可持续发展等 help each ether互助care for each other互相关心 have deep love for 热爱 be concerned with 关心 build创建 cherish 珍惜 take an active part in积极参与pay attention to social moral讲究社会公德 protect the environment保护环境save energy节省能源 No pains, no gains.不劳无获。 can be achieved by hard work……可以通过劳动获得 It is difficult to find work in the present situation.在当前形势下,很难找到工作。 It is honorable to … ……是光荣的。 If everyone…for others and the society, our world will be … 如果每个人为他人和社会做……, 我们这个世界将会…… Every one should…and devotes himself to building our motherland into a strong country. 每个人应该……,为把我们祖国建设成为一个强大的国家而奉献自己的力量。 35.话题:国外留学 常用词汇: Study学习,研究 college大学 institute学院 department 部门，系 president 校长 recommend推荐 recommendation letter推荐信period时期,学时 major in主修 examination考试 dismiss 解散,开除term 学期 apply申请 timetable时间表 quiz小测验 optional lessons 选修课library图书馆 librarian图书管理员 curriculum 课程 course课程 test 测验effort 努力 research 研究 guarantee保证 point 点,分数 extra额外的qualify证明有资格 qualification 资格,条件 in terms of tuition 有关学费方面 get/be admitted 被录取 apply for the university申请那所大学spare no efforts to do不遗余力地去做 quality education policy素质教育的政策 范例: Study Overseas With the improved living standard and China’s being more open to the world, more and more young people choose to pursue their higher education in English speaking countries such as America, Britain or Australia. Frankly speaking, studying overseas has both advantages and disadvantages. The main benefit of studying abroad is the academic one. Obviously in western colleges and universities, the laboratories are more sophisticated, and book resources more up-to-date. More importantly, they have first rate professors who are aware of the latest developments in their respective field. Hence, the standard of teaching is much higher. Besides, traveling abroad can broaden their mind and offer them greater opportunities to develop their independence. Despite these obvious advantages, we should not overlook negative effects. One problem is the difficulty they have to adjust to a new culture. They may experience loneliness and homesickness, which will of course do harm to their study. Another is, the financial problem. It is not easy for ordinary students to cover high college cost. While overseas study has its drawbacks, the advantages are obvious. Personally, I think it a good idea to study overseas, learning something different from our own country. |
