MY FAIR LADY---Mini-Biography for Audrey Hepburn

Dear all,
I am writing this letter to express my gratitude to my parents for teaching me to be positive and to be strong. “Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.” is the opinion held by Aristotle. It is the experience of our forefathers, however, it is correct even today, including my parenting.
It is widely acknowledged that parenting, which can also be explained as family education, is of great significance in our character forming and manner acquiring. To be more detailed, setting good examples instead of just giving precepts is the greatest achievement of my parents. They not only taught me to think for the best and prepare for the worst; they taught me how. They not only told me the benefits of being strong in mind; they proved it. All those things require huge amount of time and work, but it’s worth it.
Without my parents’ contribution and education, I would never be who I am now. But most importantly, I would never be more gratitude to them than today.
Yours,
XXX
Nowadays, oral English is quite a serious problem among Chinese students. Most of the students have studied English for a long time, but they cant communicate well with other people in English. In addition, there are still many other students who can understand every word of a article, but fail to read them out fluently and correctly.
Many reasons contribute to this problem. Among these reasons, examination-oriented education system plays a vital role. Whats more, most of the students are too shy and nervous to speak in public.
Since the financial crisis swept the world, the global economy has sunk into a severe recession. It's hard to get through a day without hearing or reading news about the devastating effects of the crisis: A world of companies go bankrupt, millions of employees are laid off, high-return investment bubbles burst, and huge sums of loans can never be retrieved. Its impact on our daily life can be felt in all walks of life.
College students inevitably fall victim to this pervasive slump as well. On top of that, internships and job vacancies are reduced to the minimum as companies keep shrinking. New graduates find themselves hard to get a job, not to speak of a satisfactory one. What comes next? Poor students will be hard-pressed if they find student loans unavailable any more. As a result, some even cannot afford to continue their studies. Lastly, more students are probably out there anxiously looking for part-time jobs now that they have to help cover their expenses in this gloomy economy. Their innocence and eagerness might be taken advantage of by some malicious businesspeople, or even criminal gang.
In response to these threats, we students must act promptly and wisely. Since we definitely will be facing a competitive job market, it's crucial that we submit high quality resumes. Therefore, we must commit more to our professional studies. Even do better, master more relevant job skills as a double security. Furthermore, apply for scholarships and grants, as these are still available and we don't have to pay them back. As for the safety issues, trust our instinct - there's no free lunch in this world. Anything that promises quick returns without much work is a sure trap. Stay alert and protect ourselves.
Dear my father and mother,
This letter is my inner feelings. I want to thank both of you for so many years’ care and help.
During my growth, you have made a lot of efforts and love for me. When I make a success, both of you are more excited than me, and support me to do better. Even though I have failed, you always share sorrow with me and encourage me not to give up. Especially, during my preparation for CET-4, the support from you is always everywhere. I have passed the exam successfully.
You love is so unselfish that I am deeply affected, so I will study hard to be a useful person and won’t make you disappointed. Anyway, I would like to express the deep gratitude to you.
With best wishes.
Sincerely yours,
Li Ming
Nowadays,the overwhelming influence of advertisements on media has made too many controversial social people argue that advertisements make the audience have the similar look by driving them to buy products of the same fundamentally agree with this assertion,and my reasons will be explored as below.
Admittedly,the literal intention of advertisements is to sharpen the concept of the purpose of distinguishing brand names,slogans and testimonials in advertisement are always full of very personalized words,including ^v^new^v^,^v^innovation^v^,^v^uniqueness^v^,^v^revolution^v^,^v^the best^v^,^v^the only^v^,^v^the first^v^.It is clear that core values of these words bring people a motivation to change,and a desire to try something gap between people can be broadened,because any individual is stimulated by advertisements to express their personalities by buy different items,instead of following common tastes.
However,when considering practical effects of advertisements on the society,I strongly believe they play a role of depersonalizing the audience,and the first reason is that commercials are the key tool for big companies to monopolize the hand,many big companies invest billions of dollars annually in making fascinating and prepossessing advertisements to attract the public,which consistently maintains the loyalty of patrons,and cultivate good impressions of potential customers on their the other hand,small companies have too limited financial ability to afford these costly publicity campaigns,so that their names and influences continue to fade and lose consumer is to say,advertisements,an expensive privilege only for rich and big companies,help these companies exclusively occupy the market,as well as reducing the diversity of this situation,people definitely look the same,because they have no other options but buy the same-brand food,clothes and devices produced by a dominating company.
Another reason supporting this assertion lies on the fact that exposure to advertisements standardizes thoughts and tastes among audiences,especially in terms of their typical example comes from fashion,cosmetic and shampoo commercials which highlight the close-up of images of certain model or is a strong brainwash by implying that images of these actors are common standards of human beauty,and then triggering massive public imitation shows round by too many cases,large groups of hypnotized people,regardless of ages,careers and races,blindly follow and chase so-called iconic figures in an advertisement,mainly through buying and using the same lipstick and perfume,wearing same clothes,watch,ornaments and bag,even copying the same hair style.
In conclusion,I believe the main social influence of advertisements is to make people have the similar images slogans of advertisements tend to individualize the audience,the truth is that advertisements not only let big companies rule the market solely,but also manipulate the public’s minds to buy the same things.
英语4级复习计划
第一阶段:夯实基础
1.思前想后,还是先说说买资料的事,建议大家少买资料,能不买就不买,不要单词书;语法书;各题型专项训练……统统买一大堆,按我的经验,这么多资料看到你毕业都看不完,而且这么多书,完全抓不住重点,复习效果也不会好的。
2.分享一下我的经验,我单词书和语法书都没有买,我是直接用真题记的`,效果感人!在这里要推荐一下我用的真题巨微英语《四级真题·逐句精解》,逐句讲解文章里面的大纲单词,还一句一句的讲解语法,长难句还是图解,很详细全面,用这个真题记单词学语法反而效果更好。
3.基础不好不要太急于求成,建议还是脚踏实地的打基础,不要急着做题,等夯实了基础再做题效果更好。
第二阶段:提升技巧
1.大量做题是提升技巧的好办法,建议选择真题练习,真题比预测题和模拟题更加权威也更加规范,所以建议大家还是用真题练习吧。
2.当然光是做题是不行的,还要好好对照答案,这不光是查漏补缺的过程,也是全面掌握考点的过程,所以看答案解析一定认真仔细,不光看自己做错的题,也要看做对的题,好好分析考点,总结不同题型的做题技巧。
3.翻译和写作涉及两个方面,一个是积累/背诵,还有一个就是练习,建议每天练习一篇翻译,一篇写作(还是建议练习真题),写完以后对照范文,找出自己的错漏,练习上一段时间,就会写的越来越好。
第三阶段:查漏补缺
1.真题一定要反复回看的,尤其是做错的题,要确保把哪些错误都纠正了,把真题里面的重要考点也要多看几遍,反复看,反复总结,只有这样,才能把全部知识点搜融会贯通。
2.后期看一些讲解视频也很不错,能给复习带来一些新思路,也是一种查漏补缺的过程,自己复习难免有错漏,听专业的老师讲讲还是不错的,可以在“零元课”看这些视频,类型很全,质量也不错,最关键是完全免费,这个也是我最喜欢的一点。
英语4级备考计划
自20_年12月起,大学英语四六级考试将以崭新的形式与大家见面。试卷中将取消完形填空,同时出现三种新题型,并增加了翻译考试的分值。不少考生认为考试的难度有所增加。对此,有关辅导专家建议,考生在备考时要提前熟悉题型,打好基础,并有针对性地积累知识、训练解题技巧。
试卷主要变化――出现三种新题型
根据全国大学英语四六级考试委员会做出的说明,调整后的试卷取消了完形填空题,出现了单词及词组听写、长篇阅读、段落翻译三种新题型。
听力理解部分,原复合式听写调整为单词及词组听写,短文长度及难度不变,要求考生在听懂短文的基础上,用所听到的原文填写空缺的单词或词组,共10题。短文播放三遍。
阅读理解部分新增长篇阅读。原快速阅读理解调整为长篇阅读理解,篇章长度和难度不变。篇章后附有10个句子,每句一题。每句所含的信息出自篇章的某一段落,要求考生找出与每句所含信息相匹配的段落。有的段落可能对应两题,有的段落可能不对应任何一题。
而在翻译部分,原单句汉译英调整为段落汉译英,分值由原来的5分提高到15分。翻译内容涉及中国的历史、文化、经济、社会发展等。四级长度为140-160个汉字,六级长度为180-200个汉字。
改革趋势――注重综合能力与国际考试接轨
此次调整,考试委员会还公布了四六级样卷各一套。很多人看了改革方案及样卷后,就发现此次试卷的考查方式与雅思接近,在内容上对考生的能力要求也更高。
改革之前,四六级写作话题简单、写作字数要求少,有时也会给出提纲。难度最多相当于雅思的Task1和研考小作文水平,略高于高考英语写作。改革之后,四级样题中出现了图画式作文,给出的漫画说明也是英文的。写作既要求描述图画,还要给出观点。 应对策略――针对题型积累、总结、训练
从样卷看,四六级考试调整后虽然取消了完形填空,但整体难度有所增加,尤其是翻译部分,其次是阅读和听力。整体更注重考查考生的积累和应用能力。对考生最大挑战依然是时间控制,尤其是阅读部分。
从样卷看,听力新题型单词及词组听写,两张试卷并没有明显的难度界限,四级出现了比较难的词,而六级也出现了比较老且原始的词汇。如果考生长期忽视听写和拼写必然会导致失分率的增加。因此,在每次做完听力题目之后,考生要尽量保证题目选项和对应原文中全部单词短语会拼写。
1.精读为主,多背诵经典 篇章。
选一本经典教材,比如《新概念》,坚持进行精读训练。精读可以从以下几点进行:首先放在语境中体会单词,词组的用法。并且记住一些重要的单词和词组。然后体会句子的结构,句式的安排,句与句之间的衔接。并且尝试翻译其中的一些句子,对经典句子进行复述和背诵。最后对一些经典的文章应该背诵。文章背多了,英文的感悟力就会不断提高。
2.进行泛读,扩大阅读量
泛读贵在坚持。每个星期坚持读一份英文报纸,每个月坚持读一本英文杂志。坚持下来就是量变到质变的过程了。泛读时应该涉猎各种类型的文章,可以先从自己熟悉话题,自己感兴趣的话题开始。泛读时主要体会文章的主要意思,不要总是局限在个别词或者词组的层面上。
3.熟悉英美文化背景
影响阅读速度的因素除了单词量,词组,句法结构以外还有背景知识。在大学一,二年级时可以读一些简介英美国家知识的读物,熟悉英语国家的政治,经济,教育,文化等方面的知识,对于理解语言本身一定大有裨益。因为语言与文化是不能割裂开的。而且通过文化的角度去体会英文,一定会发现语言的学习不是枯燥的单调记忆过程,而是在心中有一扇崭新的窗户被打开的过程了。
今天下午的校园文化时间,老师和我们玩了一个小游戏:拼句。
老师先给我们每人发几张纸,然后叫5、6队在纸上写干什么,1、2队写地点,3、4队写谁。写好后,把纸对折再对折,交给老师。
游戏开始了。老师先请了20号。因为今天正好是20日。他先从谁的纸里挑了一张,打开来,大声地读了起来:蜘蛛侠。一边读一边自己还笑呢。听了这个名字,我们全班哄堂大笑。接着他又找了一张地点的纸,展开,一读,“哈哈哈哈!”我们有大笑不止,哦,原来那张纸条上写的是:在非洲草原上。然后就要看干什么的了。我们在下面看的都很紧张,他又把剩下的那张纸上写的东西念出来了:吃生鱼片。讲台下爆发出雷鸣般的笑声,因为这样一来,句子就是:蜘蛛侠在非洲草原上吃生鱼片。有的同学笑得喘不过气来。
又有几个同学被请上去了。过了一会儿,老师大声喊:“只剩最后一个名额了,谁想来啊?”“我!我!”“老师,我来!”最后老师请了我。
我走上来,还是表现出淡定的神情。我从最底下的抽,展开一看,笑得肚子都疼了,“龚睿超。”同学们发出震耳欲聋的笑声。我转过头去做了个“安静”的手势,大家安静下来,接着,我又打开另一张纸,“在米缸里。”“哈哈哈哈!”大家又大笑起来。“洗澡!”我公布了最后答案。“嘻嘻嘻。”同学们笑得快没力气了。
这次拼句游戏玩得真高兴,直到下课同学们还留恋着刚才的情景呢!
