A Letter of Application for a Student Loan
October 14, 20xx
To whom it may concern,
I am writing to you to apply for a student loan. As a freshman from the English Department, I have much financial difficulty in continuing my study.
There are five members in my family. My father is the only breadwinner of the whole family while my mother was laid off two years ago. My grandmother has been suffering a chronic illness for more than five years. My younger brother is now studying in a high school. I took part-time jobs during the summer vacation, but what I have earned is far from enough for me to pay the required tuition fees. In order to continue my study, I have to apply for a student loan.
If my request is granted, I will make good use of the money and put my heart into study. I will definitely pay back the loan according to the requirements. I hope that you will consider my application.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours sincerely,
Gao Peng

一、试题形式
目前高考及其他阶段各种采用的听力测试题型主要为三种：短对话、短篇以及长对话。答题形式有两种：多项选择题（Multiple Choice）和填空题（Spot Dictation）。其中填空题有的空格要求考生听懂长对话内容，填其“意义”而不是细节性的具体单词。
短对话只听1遍；其他两大题，各听2遍，耗时约20—30分钟。
二、应试技巧
听短对话。考生在处理广播调试声音后，即可“扫描”短对话中的选项。据此展望第1个短对话可能出现的话题。
假如考生看到的是：
A. On March 2
B. On March 3
C. On March 5
D. On March 8
则考生可以判断，第1题话题涉及3月的某一天；考生一听见录音第1题及问句，由于已有所知悉，立刻可做出正确选择。
不要等到第一题念毕，问句提出后再去看四个选项。一般两道听力题（短对话）之间相隔6秒。如早早完成，即可提前思考第2题。
又如题干较长的题目：
A. They’d better not go riding.
B. Riding a bike is a great idea.
C. It’s not good riding in the rain.
D. They can go riding half an hour later.
考生在“扫描”时，预先知道该题涉及骑自行车；其中可能涉及骑车的时间，也可能是涉及一次具体的骑车活动。
这种“超前”浏览选项的本领可以培养，有的考生可以提前“扫描”3~5题，并保留一定印象。
[注] 听短对话时切忌走神。万一走神，比如说第4题没听清楚，你的本能反应是想再听，想回忆——但根本不可能，所以此刻只好猜题。猜题还有1/4的希望；反思的话，不巧把第5题也给漏掉!
听短文。听短文时要学会“记要”（taking notes）。记要有两类，一是用符号记下关键信息（如数量大小、时间顺序等）；一是用具体文字记。这是因为短文耗时长，有人会“前听后忘记”。另外一个决窍是“超前”浏览短篇的选项。如：
A. Why a company lost its customers.
B. Why a company went out of business.
C. How a company went from bad to worse.
D. How a company got out of its difficult situation.
考生一扫描就意识到该题指全文中心思想，并立即分辨出问题要么问理由（针对why）, 要么讲过程（针对how）。
听长对话。听长对话也应该有个“超前”扫描，先对对话话题有个印象。在对话进行时要注意“细节”（detail）和“关键词” （key words），必要时也得作“记要”：用铅笔，在边（test paper margin）记一下。Taking notes的技巧可以从《英语（新世纪版）》年级的课本中去找。
三、训练
听力水平的提高有两种方法：
（一）不断地“听”模拟试题。隔天一听，每周两听，等等。从当年9月起听到次年5月；用过的试卷达40~50套。这种应试训练要注意：
1. 每次训练宜一气呵成。高考听力是一气呵成，中间无间歇的。
2. 每次训练要尝试“超前”技巧。
3. 听完，对好答案，要反思，查一查自己丢分的道理，查一查自己的“软肋”。
（二）抓基本功。选择材料，听取“意群”（sense group），听“连读”（liaison），听“重读”（stressed words）以及“略读”（reduction）。为什么?因为目前高考听力并不采用“真实语言材料”（authentic material）。在真实生活中的对话，处处用到上述4种口语“技巧”。一般速度快，句子短或者不完整。所以从长远看，要真正提高听力水平，应从基本功开始，在迎接高考之初，第二种准备方法为时不晚，关键是勤奋。
四、材料信息
关于听力模拟试卷，建议选用专业出版社的产品，如上海外语出版社。
关于听力基本功训练，建议选用《英语（新世纪版）听力》（上海外语教育出版社）。该书1~3册，每单元后都有Mechanic Skills的专项训练，附有“意群”、“连读”、“重读”及“略读”的实例。
另外，如考生有条件，进口教材中有许多精彩的`听力训练材料可选用，如：Longman出版的Impact Listening 1~3，配有CD。 至于书市上流行的VOA, BBC及CNN的各种CD，可以选用一些，但必须由精选。
听力材料话题一定要广泛，话题要符合《课程标准》中提及的项目。
五、注意事项
生词的拼写及朗读也应同步展开。单词读音不准，听力的准确性受损；单词的拼写不准，即便听懂了的也写不出来。
英语作文.（3）
Today, my mother was not comfortable and went to bed early, so I helped my mother to wash his clothes.
I took my clothes to the side of the pool, put the clothes in the basin, poured the water and sprinkled the laundry powder for a while. When I rubbed a white dress, there was still an oil stain on it. How could I rub it or not? I didn't know how it happened. Mother must be able to rub off these oil stains and leave it to the mother. But I saw the tired figure of my mother in front of me, and I continued to rub it in my heart.
Strange to say, usually wear clothes so soft, suddenly become hard up, when to lose control, then rub it really hurts, I rubbed it soft, bean big sweat straight mouth drill, Xian Zizi really uncomfortable. I cled to my teeth, and it was not easy to wash some clothes.
When I want to pick up my clothes and hang on the hangers, I think of my mother's words again, "wash clothes and put the clothes on the rack again, so that it will be more clean." So I put the clothes on the pendulum and hung them on the balcony.
After the laundry was finished, my waist couldn't straighten up. Now I know how hard my mother is. In the future, I will help my mother do the housework every day to lighten my mother's burden!
今天妈妈不舒服，很早就睡了，于是我便帮妈妈洗衣服。
我抱着衣服来到水池边，把衣服放在盆里，倒上水，洒上洗衣粉浸泡一会，当搓到一件白色衣服上面还有一片油渍，怎么搓也搓不掉，也不知道是怎么一回事？妈妈一定能搓掉这些油渍，就留给妈妈洗吧！可我眼前就浮现妈妈那疲惫的身影，我心里一酸又继续搓了起来。
说也奇怪，平时穿在身上那么柔软的衣服，一下子变得硬了起来，搓衣板也不听使唤，搓得手真疼，我搓呀，柔呀，豆大的汗珠直往嘴里钻，咸滋滋的真难受。我咬牙坚持着，好不容易把一些衣服洗好了。
当我要拿起衣服准备往衣架上挂的时候，又想起妈妈说过的话：“洗完衣服，要把衣服再摆一摆，这样才会更干净！”于是我又把衣服摆了摆，便把它们挂在阳台上了！
衣服终于洗完了，我的腰都直不起来了，现在我知道了，妈妈平时有多么辛苦！以后，我要每天都帮妈妈做家务，减轻妈妈的负担！

★以下是英文写作翻译频道为大家整理的《英语作文-my teacher》
Of all the teachers, I love my English teacher best. He is a very good teacher and about thirty years old. We all call him Mr Chu. He is not tall but a little fat. He is a man with a good sense of humour and always friendly to us. We all like him and his lesson. In his class, we feel very happy. He always makes his English lesson interesting. We know English is rather difficult to learn but in his class, we feel English is very easy, and also very interesting.
He often shows us how to learn English well. He asks us to listen, to read, to say and to write. After class, we always talk with him in English. He even lends English books to us. If we have difficulty in understanding, we can go and ask him. He is always happy to help us.
He not only cares for our study, but also for our life. One day, one of my classmates, Li Tong had a bad cold. He took her to see a doctor, and got some medicine for her. Then he sent her home. When Li Tong stayed at home, Mr Chu went to her home and helped her with her lessons. Several days later, she was able to go back to school.
This is my English teacher. What do you think of him?

他不仅关心我的学习，也为我们的生活。有一天，我的一个同学，李彤患了重感冒。他带她去看医生，拿了一些药给她。然后他送她回家。当李彤呆在家里，朱先生去她家，帮她补习功课。几天后，她能够回到学校。
这是我的英语老师。你觉得他怎么样？

A special girl
There is a special girl. Why is she special？Firstly she looks like a boy so her classmates always call her a “hoyden”. Maybe they’re right because she also has the same hobbies as the boys. She likes playing soccer，basketball，table tennis，badminton，computer games and so on. If someone bothers her she will feel annoyed and even fight against him.
Secondly she is a lovely girl. She loves life very much. You may see her smiling all the time. She likes making friends with others. She likes making jokes with them，too. She likes singing but she is not good at it. She likes dancing，but she is not good at it，either.
Thirdly，she is a sentimental girl. She likes talking to birds and flowers. She likes talking to herself，too. When she’s watching TV，she will cry over a touching scene. Sometimes she is moved to cry all day and all night.
Lastly she’s a fantastic girl. She has lots of dreams. She always dreams of her future such as her job when she grows up. She wants to be a scientist because scientists invent things that are helpful for our lives. She wants to be a TV hostess because she has beautiful voice and she also wants to be…
That’s why I said she’s special. Do you want to know her？If you can keep the secret I can tell you who she is. The special girl is me.

Learning Foreign Languages
In schools all over the world boys and girls are learning foreign languages. Many adults are doing so in their spare time. Everybody knows his own language， but to know another is very useful.
Which is the best way to learn a language? We should remember we all learnt our own language well when we were children. If we could learn a second language in the same way， it would not seem so difficult. Think what a small child does. It listens to what people say and tries to imitate what it hears. When it wants something， it has to ask for it. It is using the language. It is talking and thinking in it all the time. If one has to use a second language all the time， he would learn it quickly.
It is important to remember， also， that we learn our own language by hearing people speaking it not by seeing what they write. We imitate what we hear. In school， though you learn to read and write as well as to hear and speak， it is best to learn all new words through the ear. Of course you also learn to read them， spell them and write them.
学习外语
世界各地的学校中孩子们都在学习外语。很多成年人在业余时间也在学习外语。每人都懂自己的母语，但知道另一门语言也非常有用。
学习外语最好的方法是什么呢?我们应当记得我们是孩子的时候，自己的母语都学得非常好。如果我们能以同样的方式学习第二种语言，那看起来就不会这么难了。想想小孩是怎样做的。孩子听人们说话然后设法模仿听到的东西。当他需要什么东西的时候，必须去要。他是在使用语言。他一直在用语言说话和思考。如果一个人必须始终使用第二语言，他就会学得很快。
而且，记住我们学习母语时是通过听别人说话而不是看别人写字，这也很重要。我们模仿我们听到的。 学校中，虽然你除了学习听说，还学习读写，但学习所有新单词最好是通过耳朵。当然你也要学会阅读、拼写和写作。

Good morning , ladies and gentlemen ,
Some of us are having problems with our parents , as they often look into our school bags or read our diaries . I fully understand why we are not comfortable about it , but there’s no need to feel too sad. Our parents are checking our bags or diaries to make sure we are not getting into any trouble . They have probably heard some horrible stories about other kids and thought we might do the same . Or perhaps they just want to connect with us but are doing it all wrong . My suggestion is : Tell them we want them to trust us as much as we’d like to trust them .If you don’t think you can talk to them , write them a letter and leave it lying around ---they are bound to read it .
Thank you!

I hesitate for a moment after writing down the title of this article， because I've no idea where to start this story。 My girl friend definitely can not be described by only a few words。 Some times she turns to me and asks "Why do you love me?" I am always stuck at that moment and then after a minute or two utter a few words "Because you're so good。" I know my vague answer never satisfies her。 But how can I reply otherwise?
Yes， she's so good。 There're numerous examples I can cite to illustrate her tenderness， delicacy， warmth and her genuine love for me。 A call on the cold winter night， a surprising birth day gift， a pair of gloves that warm up not only my hands， so many times has my heart melted into a sentiment called "being moved"。
I'm not a good tempered guy。 However， my girlfriend never loses her temper whenever I am not in a good mood or even say sharp words to her。 At that time， she'd look at me with great care and touch my hands with hers to calm me down。That's her graceful manner to show her deepest concern。
I have never written a love letter to her though I've received many from my dearest girlfriend。 It's not that I'm unwilling to compose one， but that I find it impossible to convey my feelings to her with written words。 We've been in love for more than one year。 But if once more asked to give reasons why I love her， I guess I'd still say because she's so good。
I can't further this generalized answer into details because it takes me lifetime to do so。
简 评
本文中，作者描述了女友的种种好处，表达了对女友的真挚感情。作者通过一些语言和行为表现了女友的细心温柔和对他的关心，如寒冷冬夜里的电话、意想不到的礼物、在他心情不好的时候关心他等。文章语言流畅，感情真挚，字里行间流露出对女友的'至爱，令人很受感动。如能举一两个具体的例子，少一些抽象的概述，则女友的形象会更加丰满。

A Gift for My Mother
Recently I have been preparing a gift for my mother’s birthday.After much careful thinking，1 finally find the gift that can bring her the most pleasure and satisfaction is nothing but me—-the apple in her eye.
As we know,there is nothing in the world that can approach a mother’s selfless love for her children.She can sacrifice everythin9，including her life，for their well-
being，while expecting little in return from them.However，she does have some expectations on them.For example，my mother hopes that I can find a good job，build a harmonious home，and live a happy and healthy life.So I believe that for my mother,the most happiness does not come from any material things，but from me，the one who tries to fulfill her expectations.
Therefore，the best gift for my mother’s birthday should be that I begin to take all the responsibilities that a son should assume.It is high time that I grew into a man that is patient，independent，responsible，obedient and helpful.
