教学内容

l 高一下册Unit1重点句型复习
1. On this lake was an island. 湖上有一个小岛。
【解析】此句为倒装结构，属于完全倒装。作地点状语的介词短语放在句首时，句子要用完全倒装结构，即谓语动词放到主语的前面。（注：此类句中的谓语动词多数是表示移动或状态的不及物动词，如come，go，walk，stand，sit，lie等。）
与此句结构类似的还有课文中的“On that island．one hundred years ago，lived the Phantom.一百年前，在那个小岛上，住着一个幽灵。”
【拓展】句子谓语是go，come，run等表示位置的动词和be动词，句中又有表示方位的副词（如there，here，up，down，out，in，away等），为了强调该副词，可将其放于句首，而将谓语动词全部置于主语之前。
Here comes the train to Beijing.去北京的火车来了。
There goes the bell.铃响了。
Down came the rain.下雨了。
【注意】 但主语是人称代词时，主语仍置于动词之前。
Away he comes.他来了。 Here it comes．它来了。

2. At birth he was so ugly that his own mother made him wear a mask.
so ...that意为“如此……以至”，连接一个结果状语从句，that有时可以省略。后面有名词时，可以用such...that引导结果状语从句，常见句型有：


adj.
adv. a/an+ adj. +n.（单）
so+ adj.十a/an+ n.（单） +that such+ adj.+ n.（复） + that
many/few十n.+(复) adj. +n.(不可数) much/little+ n.（不可数）

【例句】 There is so little time left that I have to leave at once.剩下的时间不多了，我得马上离开。
There were such a lot of people in the street that we could hardly move on. 街上人太多，我们简直无法往前走。
He shut the window with such force that the glass broke.他关窗子的时候用力太猛，把玻璃都震破了。

3. He then spent years wandering the earth until he found his home on the island
wandering the earth是动名词结构，在句中充当介词宾语，原句应是：He then spent years(in) wandering the earth until he found his home on the island.
He had a difficult time(in) adapting himself to the strange environment. 他曾经很难适应这个陌生的环境。
The bride was engaged in preparing for the wedding ceremony.新娘忙着为婚礼作准备。
（可以适当引导学生回顾一些以动名词做宾语的动词）

4. The Phantom fell in love with Christine, a beautiful young singer at the Opera.
(1) 句中a beautiful young singer at the Opera是名词词组作Christine的同位语，用于补充说明Christine的身份。课文中类似结构还有：He was Raoul, a young man who loved Christine.他是拉乌尔，一个深爱着克里斯汀的年轻人。
又如：He can't help missing his lovely hometown, a little village in the valley.
他情不自禁地思念着他可爱的家乡——一座山谷中的小村庄。
(2) the Opera指巴黎歌剧院，所以要大写。

5. She understood how lonely his life had been
(l) how lonely his life had been是how引导的感叹句作宾语从句，结构为“how+ adj. /adv. +S+V”。如果what引导的感叹句作宾语从句，结构为“what +n. /noun phrase +S+V”。
She understood what a lonely life he had lived.
(2) lonely adj.孤独的，寂寞的，偏僻的。
虽然以-ly结尾，但不是副词，而是形容词，在句子中可充当定语或表语。

6. They burst in, ready to kill him.
ready to kill him为形容词短语作伴随状语，可看作是现在分词结构being ready to kill him作伴随状语省略了being，因为不强调“正在准备好要杀他”。
They lay on the grass9 relaxed.他们躺在草地上，全身放松。
He looked at the police burst in, dumbfounded.他看着警察闯进来，吓得目瞪口呆。

l 高一下册Unit2重点句型复习
1. Einstein used to say that the only gift he had was curiosity, but this story about him shows that he also had a sense of humor.
【拓展】 used to do意为“过去常常做某事（但现在一般已不再如此）”
be used to do被用来做某事
be used to doing 现在习惯于做某事
I used to stay up late, but now I go to bed early.我过去常常熬夜，但现在睡得很早。
Wood can be used to make paper.木材能被用来造纸。
He is used to listening to English news every morning.他现在习惯于每天早上听英语新闻。

2. As a young man with a growing reputation, Einstein received many invitations to explain his theories at different universities.
(1)句中介词短语with a growing reputation作young man的定语
(2) invitations后面的不定式是用来修饰它们作后置定语的。当我们需要对一个名词作进一步解释时，可以在这个名词后面加不定式来修饰。
Do you think he has the ability to control such a situation? 你认为他有能力控制这种局势吗？
His failure to be accepted by the company let his parents down. 他没有被公司录取这件事使他父母失望。

3. One evening, on their way to a distant university, Einstein said，‘‘I wish I didn’t have to give my lecture tonight，Hans.”
(1 ) on one's/the way to 在去……的路上，正在走向……
He is on his way to success.他正走向成功。
He is on the way to becoming a famous biologist.他正要成为一名著名的生物学家。
(2) wish用来表示不太可能实现的愿望，或未实现的愿望，后面的宾语从句中的谓语动词要用虚拟语气。具体来说，表示与过去事实相反的愿望，用过去完成时；表示与现在事实相反的愿望，用过去时，be动词用were;表示将来不太可能实现的愿望，用could/would/should+动词原形。
How I wish I had taken your advice! 我多么希望接受了你的建议啊！（事实上没有接受。）
I wish my mother could come back from abroad and spend Christmas with me.
但愿我母亲能从国外回来跟我一起过圣诞节。（事实是这个愿望未必能实现。）

4. He then asked a question so difficult that Hans had no idea about what he was talking about.
(1 ) so…that…意为“如此……以致……”。
He spoke so quickly that I can't follow him.他讲得太快了，我跟不上他。
so和后面的形容词或副词放到句首，句子倒装，如上面可改为：
So quickly did he speak that I can't follow him.
(2 )have (no) idea短语，意思为“（不）知道；无能为力”，后面可以带of或about引导的介词短语，也可跟从句，但接that引导的从句时，of往往省略，而接wh-引导的从句，of可以保留也可省略。
-Have you got any idea (of) why he said so? 你知道他为什么这么说吗？
-I've got no idea of/about it at all.我根本不知道。
I have no idea (of) whether he will come today.我不知道他今天是否来。

5. They left the university, with Einstein driving
with +n. /pron. +doing/done为介词短语，在句中起伴随状语的作用。doing或done是分词结构作介词with后名词或代词的宾语补足语，doing表主动关系，done表被动关系。
With no one talking to him, the child soon fell asleep.因为无人跟他说话，孩子不久就睡着了。
The boy was thinking about something, with his head rested in his hand.男孩用手托着头在思考问题。

l 高一下册Unit3重点句型复习

This piece of composition is better by far. 这篇作文好多了。
There are many more students in our school. 我们学校的学生更多了。
批注：can be用于肯定句句表示有时候会的意思要注意强调一下。修饰比较级的程度副词可以用两句话概括：一只小（a little）肥（far）猫（much）饿（even）死（still）了，原来吃得相当多（a lot/a great deal），后来吃一点（a bit）。

2. Water lilies can often be seen in China, with their round leaves, or pads, floating in ponds.
(l) can often be seen为被动结构，通常用于描述客观现象。often等频度副词总是放在此结构中的第一个助动词之后。
Steam can always be seen rising from water when it is boiling.水沸腾时总是可以看到水蒸气升腾起来。
(2) 句中with their round leaves, or pads, floating in ponds是介词短语，作主语water lilies的定语。with短语作定语时常译为“长着”、“有着”等意。
China is a country with a long history and rich culture. 中国是一个有着悠久历史和丰富文化的国家。

5. The lotus, a near relative of the water lily, is such a plant.
(1) such在这意为“这样的，这种的；此类的；如此的”。such常用来表示惊叹或加强语气，使用时应注意：
①such无比较级和最高级。
②和不定冠词a(n)连用时，such放在该冠词之前。
③与all，no，one，few，several，some，any等词连用时，such放在这类词之后。
All such men will be dismissed soon. 所有这一类人很快就要被解雇。
No such thing have I ever expected to happen. 我从未料到会发生这种事情。

批注：提醒学生注意第二个例句，引出some/ any/ no+ such +名词，名词前不加a/ an。

（表示正在发生的动作，且guide和lead之间是主动的关系。）
With all the work done, he set out to have a drink with his friends.
所有的工作都完成了，他便出去和朋友们喝一杯。
（表示动作已完成，且work和do之间是被动的关系，故用过去分词。）

（表示未做，将要去做的动作，用to do。）
批注：此处有点类似于非谓语动词做定语的用法，教师可以适当复习非谓语动词的相关考点

2. Surviving winter in them, the spiders emerge healthy and hungry when spring comes.
( l )Surviving winter in them是现在分词结构作时间状语，相当于after they survive winter in them。如果分词的动作或行为发生在主句动作之前，则用分词的完成式。

l 高一下册Unit5重点句型复习
1. Letters from students asking for advice are published anonymously in a school newspaper as a part of the 'Counselor's Corner'.

(2) counselor 意为“顾问；指导老师”。

批注：分词作状语是非谓语动词在考试中的重点，教师可以在此题中复习 分词作定语 的用法

2. Returning home later that evening, my friend learnt….
returning( doing)在这里用作现在分词，作时间状语。

批注：非谓语动词作宾语补足语，重点考察的是动词的固定搭配，教师可以在此总结部分考试经常遇到的动词搭配。

l 高一下册Unit6重点句型复习

growing现在分词作定语，意思是：增长中的，成长中的。
the rising sun东升的旭日(=the sun that is rising)
a sleeping child熟睡的孩子(=a child who is sleeping)
working people(=the people who are working)

To get the attention (and the money) of these young viewers在句中作目的状语，其中to get相当于in order to get。

As Power's mother bought a computer for her when she was eight. When she was thirteen, she was surfing the Internet regularly, but she couldn't find anywhere for teenagers to meet and talk. And one day she thought, "If I had my own website, I'd make it ——21——— interesting site for teenagers."
   So, when Ashley was sixteen, she launched her own website, called Goosehead. She had no idea ——22——a big success it would be, but three years later, the site was the__23__ (successful )teen site in the USA! It was getting 100,000 hits every day, and Ashley had about 30 employees.
     After a few years, the website closed down. Then Ashley, who lives in Los Angeles, was asked to write a book called The Goosehead Guide to Life. The book is about how to design a website and start a business. It begins with a section called "All About Ashley,"__24__ ____ Ashley tells readers what it is like to be the boss of a company when you are only sixteen. " I was so happy.

The United States is well-known for its network of major highways designed to help a driver get from one place to another in the shortest possible time. 47 these wide modern roads are generally smooth and well maintained, with 48 sharp curves and many straight sections, a direct route is not always the most enjoyable one. Large highways often pass by scenic areas and interesting small towns. Furthermore, these highways generally 49 large urban centers which means that they become crowded with 50 traffic during rush hours, 51 the "fast, direct" way becomes a very slow route.
However, there is almost always another route to take __52___ you are not in a hurry. Not for from the relatively new "superhighways", there are often older, 53 heavily traveled roads which go through the countryside.

These secondary routes may go up steep slopes, along high 54 , or down frightening hillsides to towns 55 in deep valleys. Though these are less direct routes, longer and slower, they generally go to places 56 the air is clean and the scenery is beautiful, and the driver may have a chance to get a fresh, clean view of the world.

For those who are tired of doing the laundry, Samsung has found an answer: a washing machine that can tell you when your laundry is done via a smart phone app(application).
Strange though it may seem-“my wife already does that” was a common response among attendees viewing the device when it was introduced at the Consumer Electronics Show(CES) this week-Samsung is just one of many appliance makers racing to install a large number of interest-connected features in machines in an effort to make them “smart”.
Last year, it was a refrigerator that tweeted. This year, it’s Wi-Fi-enabled laundry machines and fridges that can tell you when your groceries are going bad.
The washers and dryers, available starting in the spring, connect to any smartphone through a downloadable application. The phone can then be used as a remote control, so the machines can be turned on and off while their owners is at work or on the bus.
Samsung says it’s not just something new – the app connection actually has some practical uses.
“If you started to dry clothes in the morning and forgot to take them out, you can go to your phone and restart your dryer for the time when come home, so your clothes are refreshed and ready to go,” said spokes person Amy Schmidt.
The company also says that with electricity rate varying depending on the time of day, more control over when the machines are used can help save money.
Perhaps, but what they will probably really accomplish is what all good technologies do – enable laziness. Rather than getting up to check on whether the laundry is done, users will instead monitor it on their phones while watching TV.

57.What can be inferred from the common response of the attendees at the CES?
A. The machine will be a big success.
B. Their wives like doing the laundry.
C. The machine is unrelated to their life.
D. This kind of technology is familiar to them.


58. What can we learn about the new laundry machines?
A. They can tell you when your clothes need washing.
B. They can be controlled with a smart-phone.
C. They are difficult to operate.
D. They are sold at a low price.

59.We can conclude from Samsung’s statements that _____.
A. the app connection makes life easier
B. it is better to dry clothes in the morning
C. smart phone can shorten the drying time
D. we should refresh clothes back at home

60. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A. The laundry should be frequently checked.
B. Lazy people like using such machines.
C. Good technologies also cause problems.
D. Television may help do the laundry.

Grown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned at children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming they learned as children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play watch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and Three Bears.
One explanation is the law of overlearning , which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials increase the length of time we will remember it.
In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming , bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as “ Twinkle , twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn.
The multiplication tables are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.
The law of overlearning explains why cramming for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning on the other hand , is really necessary for one’s future development.

61.What is the main idea of paragraph 1?
A. People remember well what they learned in childhood.
B. Children have a better memory than grown-ups.
C. Poem reading is a good way to learn words.
D. Stories for children are easy to remember.

62. The author explains the law of over-learning by_____.
A. presenting research findings.
B. setting down general rules.
C. making a comparison.
D. using examples.

63. According to the author, being able to use multiplication takes is _______.
A. a result of overlearning.
B. a special case of cramming.
C. a skill to deal with math problems.
D. a basic step towards advanced studies.

64. What is the author’s opinion on cramming?
A. It leads to failure in college exams.
B. It’s helpful only in a limited way.
C. It’s possible to result in poor memory.
D. It increases students’ learning interest.

Section C ( 8%)
Directions: read the passage carefully. Then answer the question or the statements in the fewest words.
A new study suggests that the more teenagers watch television, the more likely they are to develop depression as young adults. But whether the extent to watch TV may or may not be to blame is a question that the study leaves unanswered.
The research used a national long-term survey of teenagers’ health to survey the relationship between media use and depression. They based their findings on more than 4000 young teenagers who were not depressed when the survey began in 1995. As a part of the survey, the young people were asked how many hours of television or videos they watched daily. They were also asked how often they played computer games and listened to the radio. Media use totaled an average of five and one-half hours a day. More than two hours of that was spent watching TV. Seven years later, in 2001, more than seven percent of the young people had signs of depression. The average age at that time was twenty-one.
Brian Primack at the University of Pittsburgh medical school was the lead author of the new study. He says every extra hour of television meant an eight percent increase in the chances of developing signs of depression.
Doctor Primack says the study did not explore if watching TV causes depression. But one possibility, he says, is that it may take time away from activities that could help prevent depression, like sports and socializing. It might also interfere with sleep, he says, and that could have an increase.
In December, the journal Social Indicators Research published a study of activities that help lead to happy lives. Sociologists from the University of Maryland found that people who describe themselves as happy spend less time watching television than unhappy people. The study found that happy people are more likely to be socially active, to read, attend religious services and to vote.
Note: answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS)

And it’s all true. But other side of that equation is that the U.S needs to __57__ more. For the moment, American households actually are doing so. After the personal-saving rate __58__ to zero in 2005, the shock of the economic __59__ last year promoted people to __60__ their wallets. In China, the household-savings rate exceeds 20%. It is partly for policy __61__. As we have seen, wage earners are expected to __62__ not only their children but their aging parents. And there is, to date, only the flimsiest of publicly-funded health care and pension systems, which increases incentives for individuals to save __63__ they are working. But China is a society that has __64__ esteemed personal financial prudence. There is no __65__ that will change anytime soon, even if the government creates a better social safety net and successfully encourages greater consumer spending.

Americans are proud of their variety and individuality, yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of a lift operator or the uniform of a five-star general. Why are uniforms so popular in the United States?
Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian clothes. People have become conditioned to expect higher quality from a man who wears a uniform. The television repairman who wears a uniform is likely to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a hairdresser, or a waiter to lose professional identity than to step out of uniform?
Uniforms also have many practical good points. They are often more comfortable and more lasting than civilian clothes.
Primary among the argument against uniforms is their lack of variety and the loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement. When people look alike, they are likely to think, speak, and act similarly on the job at least.
Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems. Though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes. Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.
70. What surprises us is that Americans ____.
A. still judge a man by his clothes B. think highly of uniforms
C. less prefer wearing civilian clothes D. respect a lift operator in uniform
71. People are likely to think that a man in uniform ____.
A. suggests quality work B. shows his social position
C. appears to be more practical D. looks more fresh and attractive
72. Those who are against uniforms believe that people wearing uniforms ____.
A. are usually helpful B. have little freedom
C. lose personal character D. enjoy greater popularity
73. It can be concluded from the passage that ____.
A. people generally trust a person in uniform
B. people enjoy wearing comfortable uniform
C. the cost of the uniform is acceptable to people
D. people wear uniforms to show their professions

The author of The Call of the Wild is Jack London. He was the most successful realist writer in America in the early 20th century. His best short stories including The Call of the Wild, White Fang, The Sea-Wolf, To Build a Fire and so on. As a committed socialist, he insisted against editorial pressures to write political essays and insert social criticism in his fiction.
The main idea of this novel is about a dog named Buck, He is ripped from his pampered surroundings and shipped to Alaska to be a sled dog. He is a courageous dog fighting for survival in the Alaskan wilderness, and emerge his primitive wolf-like nature.
The book is set in the gold rush in Alaskan. The writing style of this book is realism. We can see the character trait of Buck from the book. At the beginning, the author says that Buck has the quality of wolf: firm, powerful and insidious, but he feels grateful for his benefactor. It shows many kinds of contradiction of life from his action.
The first is the socialist theory of Marx. Buck was treated with great cruelty by his master using a club. The club symbolizes the social right institution. The proletariat suffer ruthless exploitation and heavy oppression. The second is Darwin’s Theory of Evolution. For example, we can know it from his ability of adjusting to the unfamiliar environment.
The theme of this novel is to expose the idea of returning to nature, the principle of survival of the fittest and the reality of the social life at that time, and the spirit of humanitarianism. It reflects the liveliness of animals, the relationship between the animals and human beings, the social darkness and the complication of humanity.
The language of this book is very elegant and leaves a favorable impression on me. It uses symbolism effectively. The wildness symbolizes purity, justice and equality. It neither helps nor prevents the human beings’ adventure. However, if someone violates natural law, he or she will receive severe punishment. The novel tells us that we should learn to tap our existing potential and survive with indomitable will under terrible conditions, if we want to succeed.
74. What is Jack London’s attitude towards editorial pressures?
A. He thought it was too heavy.
B. He identified with them and made some changes in his novel.
C. He wrote with political essays despite social pressure.
D. He criticized society less.
75. In the novel, we can see some philosophical thinking, such as ____.
A. social criticism
B. socialist theory and Darwin’s Theory of Evolution
C. the sue of symbolism
D. the principle of survival of the fittest
76. Which one is not an aim of describing such a dog as Buck?
A. To tap our existing potential.
B. To encourage us to live with a strong will.
C. To reflect the spirits of humanitarianism.
D. To symbolize the dark side of human beings.

More and more people are taking their iPads to bed with them to surf the web, check facebook or send e-mails before switching off the light. But researchers are warning that the blue light their screens give off can stop users getting a good night’s sleep. That is because this type of light is similar to daylight, convincing the brain that it is still daytime. Blue light prevents the production of a brain chemical called melatonin, which helps us fall asleep. By contrast, light which is more orange or red does not prevent melatonin production, perhaps because our brains recognize it as a cue that the day ends.
Scientists have known for years that staring at screens late in the evening can affect sleep ---- be they television screens, computer screens or mobile phone screens. However, because mobiles and iPads are by nature portable ---- not to say addictive ---- more people are taking them into the bedroom. Users also tend to hold them much closer to their eyes than a computer or television screen.
Researchers are warning that looking at iPad displays for more than two hours leads to lower natural melatonin levels as the devices give off blue light. They say, “Turning off the devices at night is the final solution. But if you have to use these devices at night, dim the display to cut down irritation of the eyes and limit the time you spend on them before bed.”
They wrote in the journal Applied Ergonomics(应用人类工程学) that iPad makers should adjust the spectral power distribution(光谱功率分布) of the devices so that they affect the sleep patterns of users less.
It is not just a good night’s sleep that could be harmed by too much late night screen time. Researchers know that long-term harm to sleep patterns can lead to an increased risk of obesity and even cancers.
77. Blue light prevents iPad users from sleeping well because ____.
A. it makes the brain more active
B. it can help decrease the production of melatonin
C. it is brighter than light that is more orange or red
D. it is the same as daylight which keeps people awake
78. The underlined phrase “dim the display” means ____.
A. turn off the display B. keep away from the display
C. clean the display carefully D. make the display less bright
79. In the last paragraph, the author intends to ____.
A. show the danger of obesity and cancers
B. call on researchers to study sleep patterns
C. warn of the seriousness of long-term poor sleep
D. show how sleep is harmed by using iPads too much
80. What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. People should limit the use of electronic devices.
B. Using iPads before bed can cause a poor night’s sleep.
C. Scientists are warning that blue light is bad for our health.
D. Looking at screens of iPads increase chances of sleeplessness.

As computers become more popular in China, Chinese people are increasingly relying on computer keyboards to input Chinese characters. But if they use the computer too much, they may end up forgetting the exact strokes of each Chinese character when writing on paper. Experts suggest people, especially students, write by hand more.
Do you write by hand more or type more? In Beijing, students start using a computer as early as primary school. And computer dependence is more widespread among university students. Almost all their assignments and essays are typed on a computer.
All the students interviewed say they usually use a computer.
It’s faster and easier to correct if using a computer. And that’s why computers are being applied more and more often to modern education. But when people are taking stock in computers increasingly, problems appear.
“When I’m writing with a pen, I find I often can’t remember how to write a character, though I feel I’m familiar with it.”
“I’m not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper.”
Many students don’t feel this is something to worry about. Now that it’s more convenient and efficient to write on a computer, why bother to handwrite?
Many educators think differently. Shi Liwei, the headmaster of a famous primary school in the capital said, “Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic value. But those characters typed with computer keyboards only maintain their practical value. All the artistic beauty of the characters is lost. And handwriting contains the writer’s emotion. Through one’s handwriting, people can get to know one’s thinking and personality. Beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them.”
To encourage students to resort to handwriting more, many primary schools in Beijing have writing classes compulsory and in universities, some professors are asking students to turn in their homework and essays written by hand.
81. The students interviewed prefer to write using a computer because ____.
A. they are usually asked to e-mail their homework and essays
B. they can correct the mistakes they make quickly and conveniently
C. they find it not easy to remember how to write a character
D. computers have become a trend and fashion in China
82. Which of the following statements is NOT the advantage of handwriting?
A. Handwriting contains the writer’s emotion.
B. The writer’s thinking and personality are shown in his or her handwriting.
C. Handwriting can impress people well and build one’s self-confidence.
D. Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic value.
83. The underlined expression “taking stock in” probably means ____.
A. getting bored with B. getting dependent on
C. becoming crazy about D. getting curious about
84. We can learn from the last paragraph that ____.
A. more and more students will give up writing on a computer
B. writing by hand will give way to typing by computer one day
C. more and more students will pay attention to handwriting

“Particulate Matter 2.5(PM 2.5 for short)” is now an enemy of the people. The harmful, tiny pieces of matter, up to 2.5 microns in diameter, are too small to be seen by the naked eye. So they can be easily breathed into lungs of people and do harm to people’s health. With the issue of pollution heatedly discussed, some people are wondering what possible solutions might be on the way. One might very well be a renewed effort to kick-start the electric car industry. Some reports suggest that the use of battery cars should be expanded from the present five cities to 20 more.
But so far no country in the world has succeeded in making dream of emission free driving a reality. Despite the lofty ideal, the electric car has so far been a disappointment, accounting for only a fraction of 1% of global car sales. And the same is true in China. There is an existing target to put five million on the road by 2020 but the Chinese consumer is so far very much unconvinced.
BYD Auto Company is just one electric vehicle maker hoping that the time is now ripe for the government to step up its efforts. BYD is making electric cars but as yet not selling in great numbers. Electric cars are not cheap. It would still leave more than $40,000 to be paid before you could drive away in a BYD e6. And buyers have worries other than price.
“I think that when you talk to a regular Joe about electric vehicles he is excited, but when you ask Mr. Joe to buy one, he’s nervous,” said Isbrand Ho from BYD’s Auto Export Trade Division. “How far will my vehicle go?” The answer for an e6 is well in excess of 300 kms(190 miles) on one charge. That is the sort of number that might just start looking attractive to less price-sensitive customers but China still doesn’t have anything like enough charging stations to make the car a practical choice.
Last year, BYD sold only 1,700 electric cars in China. Isbrand Ho says that at that volume the car is naturally expensive. What they need, he says, is for production to get above a certain threshold, and then costs will come down.
