飞或许是鸟的本能，但怎么飞、飞去哪是一种选择。 2017.2.14-2017.5.2 ⏳Before the first exam, G2 has 77 days to go. 今天距离G2第一场考试还有：77天 2017.2.14-2017.5.10 ⏳Before the exam, A1 has 85 days to go. 今天距离A1考试还有：85天 _______________
If you were a bird, would you like to be locked in cages but get daily feed till you die? Or you prefer to enjoy the sky but have to find food and directions yourself? 倘若你是一只小鸟，你会希望每天都被关在笼子里有人每天定时投喂，一辈子都离不开窝。还是你想要在天空中飞翔但却需要自己寻找食物和方向？ Actually you have no choice, because you all have decided to live on your own in the future days overseas. So how can you survive if you count on someone else to save you? 可事实是你们已经做出了选择，因为出国求学就意味着你不能再依靠别人，而是要变得越来越独立，知道该如何自救。 It is never too late to ask for help if you don't understand, but it is always way too early to think you need to show off your personality in class. 有些恐惧不知道该从哪里下手要向老师或同学请教，现在开始并不晚；但如果你觉得课堂是展现你所谓的幽默与个性的地方，现在根本不合时宜。别作！
For G2, today we will start with the 1(a).
(i) Using Figure 1, describe the changes in the types of employment in the UK between 1992 and 2011.
When we say describe, we mean something is already given, all you need to do is to look at the graph and write down what's happening. 描述是对你在图表上看到的信息写出来，如从1992年到2011年英国拥有最多从业人员的行业一直是服务业，而且从68%上升到了80%。其次是制造业...而制造业没有变化，保持在7%。 It is another version of IELTS writing task 1. You will have 2 points if you fully described the data. Do write clearly and circle the keywords in questions. (ii)Give reasons for the global shift in manufacturing. P196 would be helpful to organize your answer.
If you give no background information here, you will get no more than half of the score. If you want 4 points all in your pocket, then you need to write in detail with data and cases. And a trick here is reasons not main reason. 如果没有提供任何背景信息只是写了几个套路，比如产业转移、全球化、环境污染等，是远远不够的，还需要数据、细节。你需要提到由于制造业需要劳动力，而英国的劳动力成本比发展中国家如中国、泰国等地要高，所以转移到了LEDC。其次全球化过程使得制造业的区位选择条件发生了变化，交通更为便利有些产品的制造过程分散，全球都有布局，对于企业降低成本赚取更多利益更为有利。 来自必应搜图。 (iii)The growth of manufacturing has been very rapid in China. Outline one advantage of this rapid industrial growth. "made in china" seems to be everywhere, and it is quite easy to think about the people are buying more products much more easily, which links to exports. But again, we need to take into consideration of the time period in this figure. “中国制造”全球畅销这一点很容易联系到人们手里越来越有钱可以买更多，不只是国人可以买，世界各国都可以买，这就涉及到进出口，但也要注意到时间。一句题外话，1992年恰好也是上海浦东新区成立的年份，这其实也代表着中国的制造业不断发展，同时与国家对外开放、注重经济发展的政策相匹配，快速发展的工业所制造的产品才有“销路”。而卖出去了的资本又可以继续回到工业制造中促进工业的发展。 For A1, do find me personally when I am at school, Wednesday and Friday all day. Face-to-face tutorial is the best thing we can do to catch up the deadline. And one advice is that no one get a A without pain. If you spend 3 hour a day on math exercise, there is no doubt that you can get the score you want. But how can you expect the same score when you paid few time on geography.
For G2, we enjoyed some pictures, one video, textbook 198-200. Do keep in mind with the key questions. As we said before, they are the "key" to your higher score. About the Blackpool, it is now famous for the pleasure beach. But if you are interested in football, you may know more about the coastal city. William also told you about how the railway contributes to its prosperity. And after class, when we talk to Tim, he also mentions the location is also quite important, because there were many factories there so the workers who lived there need a place to spend the leisure time. As for me, I haven't been there before, but I am looking forward to its roller coaster- biggest and longest in Europe. For A1, we talked about weather and climate today. They are not the same thing but connected. Someone once told me that climate decides what clothes you are to buy, when weather decides what clothes you are to wear. But then we paid more time with the atmopshere layers. Here we have more pictures for you to read, and the first thing you need to realize is that the troposphere is the layer we normally live and the weather takes place. (All from Bing Images, with keywords: atmosphere layers) When it comes to the solar radiation, how are you feeling now comparing to this afternoon? By then it was much warmer, thanks to the sun. I have collected some pictures here for you. As for now, as new chapters, you need to focus on how the system runs- input, processes, and outputs. Night 45/365 Year2017 题图来自2015年3月的Hermione MIAO |
