因为篇幅有限，只列出部分考点，详细请访问。
故事类阅读
故事类阅读概念：
这类文章一般描述的是某一件具体事情的发生发展或结局，有人物、时间、地点和事件。命题往往从故事的情节、人物或事件的之间的关系、作者的态度及意图、故事前因和后果的推测等方面着手，考查学生对细节的辨认能力以及推理判断能力。故事类阅读应试技巧：
1、抓住文章的6个要素：阅读时要学会从事情本身的发展去理解故事情节而不要只看事件在文中出现的先后顺序。因此，无论是顺叙还是倒叙，阅读此类文章时，必须要找到它结构中的5个W（when, where, who, why, what）和1个H（how），不过不是每篇都会完整地交待六个要素。毫无疑问，寻出这些元素是能够正确快速解题的一个先决条件。 2、注意作者的议论和抒情：高考英语阅读理解故事类文章常伴随着作者思想情感的流露和表达，因此议论和抒情往往夹杂其中。行文时或按事情发生发展的先后时间进行或按事情发生发展的地点来转换，也可能按事情发展的阶段来布局。在引出话题，讲完一件事情后，作者往往会表达个人感悟或提出建议等。这些体现作者观点或思想的语句在阅读时可以划线，它们往往体现文章中心或者写作意图，属于必考点，所以要仔细体会。 3、结合前两点归纳文章中心，把握作者态度：故事类文章是通过记叙一件事来表达中心思想的，它是文章的灵魂。归纳文章中心思想时，尤其要分析文章的结尾，因为很多文章卒章显志，用简短的议论、抒情揭示文章中心；文章中议论抒情的句子往往与中心密切相关；也有的文章需要在结合概括各段大意的基础上归纳中心。另外，叙述一件事必有其目的，或阐明某一观点，或赞美某种品德，或抨击某种陋习，这就要求我们在阅读时，通过对细节（第1点中的六要素）的理解，把握作者的态度。 4、有章有据进行解题判断：分析文章，归纳主题，属于分析、概括、综合的表述能力的考查。切忌脱离文章，架空分析，一定让分析在文章中有依据。

The two leitmotifs used in this movie are “Lucy’s Theme”, which is a slow, romantic, or even sad piece of music. The “Family Theme”, has a faster beat that goes back and forth and is quirky.

Why you describe yourself competitive
The easy answer is yes. You must give plenty of examples. And from as many aspects of your life as possible. University experience certainly, but also include situations from your early life in order to demonstrate that competition is natural to you. Sporting activities are an obvious source here. Show that you are competitive on your own as well as within a team situation. You should also suggest that you are successfully competitive. Failing in competition...

Pink Floyd first banded together in 1965 with Roger Barrett as the “creative force” behind the band (Barnes). However, drug and alcohol abuse led to his mental breakdown. His unreliability led to the band’s search for a new lead singer. The album cover and the song are both a metaphor for the band’s experiences with Barrett. Pink Floyd’s 1975 album cover of Wish You Were Here portrays artistic elements of light, destruction, and unique placement. They reflect the band’s skeptical...

How Does Duffy Vividly Portray her Mother and their Relationship in “Before You Were Mine”?
Firstly, there are several examples of Duffy implying a strong relationship of love and admiration between herself and her mother. For instance, this is conveyed when Duffy describes her mother’s polka dot dress as blowing around her legs, before referring to her as “Marilyn”. This immediately draws the audiences’s minds to the fifties, and the iconic image of the glamorous Marilyn Monroe with her polka...

But as I mature into my teenage years, I realised the folly and absurdities of my fears.

Before You Were Mine
‘Before You Were Mine’, written by Carol Ann Duffy is a poem about the adoration that the writer feels for her mother. Her feelings are revealed in first person. Duffy uses a range of narrative techniques like onomatopoeia, metaphors and short sentences which stand out and make the writer’s point clear. These techniques help reveal the author’s changing attitude from selfish and possessive to loving and affectionate, when considering the younger version of her mother.

Vietnam, a war that ended in 1975 was a war about the prolonged struggles between the nationalists forces that were trying to attempt the unification of Vietnam as a country under a government of communism and the United States attempting to delay or stop the spread of communism. To the Americans, this war seemed pointless and the Americans saw that there was no way of winning so the government lost the support for this uncalled war. In &The Things They Carried,& Tim O'Brien wrote a novella about...

Is forgiving always the right thing to do? For me the answer is a simple no. The best example of some of the dangers of forgiveness is in The Sunflower by Simon Wisenthal. The Sunflower is a book which describes Simon’s, the Jewish protagonist in a concentration camp, encounter with Karl, a SS soldier on his death bed. Simon is pulled to Karl’s side while Karl tells of his time in the SS with much regret. Karl, overcome with guilt and remorse for his actions,
asks Simon to forgive him. Simon, unable...

is a great example of those opuses which let oppressed people’s voices be noticed. Frank Capra, rather than simply criticize the cruel truth of society, brought forward his new movie, You Can’t Take it With You, in order to bring a sense of relief with his unique humor. The protagonists of You Can’t Take It With You have opportunities to make their dreams come true: The eccentric Professor Vanderhof’s good nature asserts itself and converts Anthony P. Kirby to do what he likes instead of lusting after...

When you are old and gray and full of sleep
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and o
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty wit
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face.
And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead,
And hid...

Describe what would be according to your personality the ideal job for you?
I used to change my idea of what an ideal job is since a while. When I was young, my dream was to be a princess like the others girls of my age. Who doesn’t want a pink life with money, comfort and happiness? When I was a teenager I wanted to work with horses, because they were my favorite animal. And now, since I’m enrolled in a business program, I have new expectations even if some are similar. I want...

You entered my life like a gentle sigh, like a quiet breeze blowing softly through the leaves.
You were a stranger first, one who laughed freely and easily, who spoke of minor intimacies and common grounds, who made me feel strangely liked and valued.
You became my friend, no longer a stranger, trusting me with secrets hidden, confiding what you liked and hated.
We talked and laughed and, as time passed by, I grew more and more dependent upon your smile.
From strangers to friends was just a baby...

In my family all four of them are short. My parents are about 5’5 and my sisters are about 5’3, while I am about 6’1. I don’t know where I get my height from, but when I look at my cousins from my dad’s side every single one of the guys are just about 6’0 or higher and the tallest being 6’6. I have about 30 male cousins on my dad’s side. Also my grandfather from my mom’s side is 6’1, so I guess I got some of the...

Save as many as you ruin
If you made a mistake in your life, whether it is a personal mistake or it would have grave consequences for other people. Would you be able to forget it? Would you get a second chance to make things right, and in that case, would you embrace this second chance or simply ignore it? ‘The second chance in love” is the main theme in Simon Van Booy’s story called “Save as many as you ruin”.
The mood in the story is melancholic. In the start of the story, the main character...
