The Beacon Of Life----Purpose
I think that purpose is very important in life for all of us,or our world won’t get better.The reason why Addison thought so is that he knew that purpose brought some advantages to everybody.We all know that there are many famous inventors in the world.For example:Edison had a purpose of inventing bulbs.Because he saw the disadvantages of living in the night by burning candles.He wanted to invent something bright to make people see something easily in the dark.After Edison invented bulbs, people could do many thingsat night as they did in theday.The Wright brothers had a purpose of making something to fly in the sky.Becausethey noticed that birds could fly in the sky by their wings.They invented the plane.So we can go any placeswe want quickly by plane instead of taking a carriage.CaiLunhad a purpose of producing something that couldreplace bamboo.Because he found that bamboo was too heavy to carry for ordinary persons.So we can write words on paper instead of onbamboo.Thus it can be seen, purpose is like a flame, sooner or later, it can be larger.It can make our society move forward.Purpose is important.However, if you just think, but not do it right now, all the things that you think will be gone.So if you have something great in your mind,just do it.Don’t wait.Do you want to wait until you are too old to follow your purpose?
The first thing of purpose is that you dare guess.Some people guess that there are alien in the space.Some people guess that there are ghosts in the world.Even Plato once guessed that people would become half robots.That’s really crazy.Purpose is a prediction of future.What we guess may become what will happen in the near future.Maybe,we are flying in the space several years later.

American TV dramas are quite prevailing in the group of teenagers these days.Some people think it has nothing to do with the students.But in my eyes,I regard them as a tool to learn English and they help me to know different culture.First American TV dramas can enhance my sense of learning English.Broke Girls is one of my favorite American TV dramas and it shows on every Saturday evening.When it begins, I’ll be concentrated on the screen and too addicted to the drama to hear mom’s instruction I be expected at the dinner table.As soon as it ends, the video will be rewound and I’ll write down some important words,phrases and sentenses that will help me with English.My vocabulary will be expanded with lots of words learned.Next ,their accent is pretty good in the drama so that it can get my spoken English improved.Only if master the native English expression will I do better in learning English.Ultimately ,the most important significance of watching American TV dramas do I think is to know the differences between America and China.There are a large number of stories in Broke Girls permeated with their own culture such as the civil war and Great Depression.The characters are always talking about the news which is from all over America, most of it about politics.In one episode,the main character Oley walked along the street ,one of his old companions putting his hand on Oley’s shoulder.“hey ,Oley!I’m Thomas Jefferson.We haven’t seen each other for several years!”Oley thought for a while and answered,“Oh, you are the person who writes the declaration!Have you finished writing?”Puzzled by this confusing conversation,I looked through the dictionary.With the unfamiliar words looked up,I realized that the declaration referred to the Declaration of Independence and the great president Thomas Jefferson’s name is the same as the old friend’s.It reminded me of what I had known about Jefferson in my junior high school.My history teacher used to mention the leader of War of Independence..Otherwise,I completely forget about him.As a student of art,it’s necessary to understand their historical background.The more knowledge I gain,the better history and politics grades I get.Though I benefit from American dramas a lot,there should be a proper limit to them.You will be sure to be addicted to the dramas unless you control yourself.We are supposed to keep a balance between our study and American TV dramas.American dramas should be treated as an important way to improve the level of English or other subjects rather than just for entertainment.

C.are as inefficient as the traditional methods.D.are based on an entirely new working principle.以上問題的核心在于領會 modern electronic anti-noise devices(現代抗噪音電子裝置)的定義,而不僅僅是抗噪音電子裝置),更不是一般的 anti-noise devices(抗噪音裝置)。錄音中很可能出現有關anti-noise device在各個不同發展時期不同特點的信息,如果不認真審題,就會出現張冠李戴的錯誤。另外,審題的仔細還表現在領悟特殊形式的題干,如否定式Which of the following is INCORRECT,或排除式All the following are true EXCEPT,等等。正確審題是答題的關鍵,否則聽力能力再好的考生也不會有好的成績?!?領會講話者的語氣聽懂說話者的語氣可幫助回答問題。這一點在聽力第二部分(對話或面試)顯得更為重要。例如,Well,I’m afraid I do. But I might be mistaken.表示了說話者不肯定的語氣。有時字面意思與說話者所要表達的意圖相反,這時考生更多的是依賴講話者的口氣來答題。如,I’d be sacked if I accepted your offer.所表達的是拒絕。講話的口氣是多種多樣的,它可以表達驚奇、猶豫、挑戰、諷刺、安慰、決心等,正確領會它們會收到事半功倍的效果?!?聽與記錄同時進行考生可在聽的過程中適當做些筆錄因為僅憑腦力無法記住長達數分鐘的討論或對話??忌谟涗洉r不必拘于形式,做一些只要自己能明白的簡單符號記錄即可,特別是眾多的數字、時間、日期、人名、地名更需要做些筆記。最后,希望廣大考生千萬不要盲目信仰應試技巧而忽視語言基本能力的訓練,因為技巧只不過是以扎實語言基本功為基礎的一點兒輔助性的東西而已。Step4 Assignment課后作業 Read the following words correctly and keep their Chinese meanings in mind.★ Places you may go to: museum, airport, railway station, subway / underground,hospital, clinic, dentist’s, post office, restaurant, cinema/theatre, sports center, stadium, gym, studio, hotel, shopping mall, supermarket, department store,amusement / theme park, barber’s, hairdresser’s university,college, library, bookstore, factory, workshop, farm, workroom,a monument to …, Buckingham Palace, the Palace Museum,the Summer Palace, Disneyland.★ Occupation(part-time job /full-time job)businessman /clerk /manager /boss/secretary professor/teacher/headmaster/lawyer/artistdoctor / nurse / librarianengineer /technician/ scientist/astronaut policeman / policewoman cook / driver / farmer / dustmanshop-assistant / waitresssalesman/saleswoman government official
