2013高三英语阅读素材 Etiquette of a Gentleman二——绅士礼仪二
Etiquette of a Gentleman(二)——绅士礼仪(二) The basic of Chivalry
In addition to the aforementioned rules(General Etiquette), gentleman should follow these additional rules when in the presence of a lady. Chivalry may be o n life support, but it not dead yet. Be one of the few to keep this flame burning for many years to come.
ALWAYS OPEN DOORS
This is perhaps the most basic rule of male eti quette out there. It is also one of the easiest to follow so you have no reason to forget it. Whether she i s about to enter your car, restaurant, club, or anyplace with a door, you should always hold it open. If there are many doors, then hold them open one after another.
PUT ON HER COAT
Always help a lady put on her coat or overgarment. This is a simple but powerful action.
HELP WITH HER SEA T
If an unaccompanied l ady is sitting next to you,it is important that you help her be seated by pulling her chair out for her and gently pushing it back into place, with the lady seated of course.
GIVE UP YOUR SEAT
If a lady arrives at the table and there are no available seats, you should stand up and offer yours to her.
STAND AT ATTENTION
Always stand when a lady enters or exists the room. This rule has been somewhat rel axed, so you can stand upon entrance but remain seated upon exit. Nonethelss, if you cn do both, you should.
GIVE HER YOUR ARM
When escorting a lady (that you know) to and from social events, you should offer her your arm. This is a little more intimate, but serves well when walking on uneven ground-espe cially if she’s wearing high heels.
ASK IF SHE NEEDS ANYTHING
This is one that most guys already do, but helps complete a gentleman. When at social events, make sure to ask the lady if y ou can get her something to drink or eat, (depending on the event), show her that you care about her comfort and needs.
Gentlemen, if I may call you that, these are the rules of etiquette you should observe in everyday life. Elevate yourself above the r abble and display the mannerisms of a true gentleman. The world will appreciate such a rarity and your career will most definitely benefit from your good manners and savoir-faire.

2013高考英语真题特色题型详解―阅读七选五(六选五) 一、(2013课标卷I) 第二节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Business is the organized approach to providing customers with the goods and services they want. The word business also refers to an organization that provides these goods and services. Most businesses seek to make a profit（利润）— that is, they aim to achieve income that is more than the costs of operating the business. 71 Commonly called nonprofits, these organizations are primarily nongovernmental service providers. 72 Business management is a term used to describe the techniques of planning, direction, and control of the operations of a business. 73 One is the establishment（制定） of broad basic policies with respect to production; sales; the purchase of equipment, materials and supplies; and accounting. 74 The third relates to the establishment of standards of work in all departments. Direction is concerned primarily with supervision （监管）and guidance by the management in authority. 75 A. Control includes the use of records and reports to compare actual work with the set standards for work. B. In this connection there is the difference between top management and operative management. C. Examples of nonprofit business include such organizations as social service agencies and may hospitals. D. However, some businesses only seek to earn enough to cover their operating costs. E. The second aspect relates to the application of these policies by departments. F. In the theory of business management, organization has two main aspects. G. Planning in business management has three main aspects. 本文是一篇讨论商务和商务管理的说明文。虽然看似有很多专业术语，但是根据我们常说的“指路词”，以及对上下文的推理，其实要做出正确答案并不难，可谓是难度中等。 文章第一段描述了business的两个含义：一是提供顾客所要商品和服务的方法；二是提供这些商品和服务的组织。文展第二段则细述了商务管理是用来描述计划、指导以及控制公司运作技巧

高三英语阅读材料
高三阅读资料——叙事类美文系列 T h e K e y o f a C a r A young man was getting ready to graduate from college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer's showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted. As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curiously, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young man's name embossed in gold. Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?" Then stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible. Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make the arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things. When he arrived at his father's house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search through his father's important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he was reading, a car key dropped from the back of the Bible. It had a tag with the dealer's name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words... "PAID IN FULL". How many times do we miss blessings because they are not packaged as we expected? I trust you enjoyed this. Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for. Four wives in our lives There was a rich merchant who had 4 wives. He loved the 4th wife the most and adorned her with rich robes and treated her to delicacies. He took great care of her and gave her nothing but the best. He also loved the 3rd wife very much. He's very proud of her and always wanted to show off her to his friends. However, the merchant is always in great fear that she might run away with some other men. He too, loved his 2nd wife. She is a very considerate person, always patient and in fact is the merchant's confidante. Whenever the merchant faced some problems, he always turned to his 2nd wife and she would always help him out and guide him through difficult times.

2014高考英语阅读理解拉分特训(11)及答案
2014高考英语阅读理解拉分特训（11）及答案 阅读理解A We live in an age of unprecedented(空前的) opportunity: If you’ve got ambition, drive, and smarts, you can rise to the top of your chosen profession—regardless of where you started out from. But nowadays companies aren’t managing their knowledge workers’ careers. Rather, we must each be our own chief executive officer. Only when you operate from a combination of your strengths and self-knowledge can you achieve true and lasting excellence. To build a life of excellence, begin by asking yourself these questions: “What Are My Strengths?” To accurately identify your strengths, use feedback analysis. Every time you make a key decision, write down the outcome you expect. Several months later, compare the actual results with your expected results. Look for patterns in what you are seeing: What results are you skilled at generating? What unproductive habits are preventing you from creating the outcomes you desire? In identifying opportunities for improvement, don’t waste ti me developing skill areas where you have little competence. Instead, concentrate on and build on your strengths. “What Are My Values?” What are your ethics(道德标准)? What do you see as your most important responsibilities for living a worthy, ethical life? Do your organization’s ethics resonate(共鸣) with your own values? If not, your career will be likely to be marked by frustration and poor performance. “Where Do I Belong?” Consider your strengths, preferred work style, and values. Based on these qualities, what kind of work environment would you fit it best? Find the perfect fit, and you’ll transform yourself from a merely acceptable employee into a star performer. “What Can I Contribute?” In earlier eras, companies told businesspeople what their contribution should be. Today, you have choices. To decide how you can best improve your organization’s performance, first ask what the situation requires. Based on your strengths, work style, and values, how might you

And it appears that simply reading those words by William Wordsworth prove his point. 英国诗人威廉·华兹华斯曾写道：“人的心灵，不用巨大猛烈的刺激，也能够兴奋起来”。要说明这一点，看上去似乎单是读一下这句话就够了。 Researchers at the University of Liverpool found the prose of Shakespeare and Wordsworth and the like had a beneficial effect on the mind, provi ding a ‘rocket-boost’ to morale by catching the reader’s attention and triggering moments of self-reflection. 利物浦大学的研究人员发现，莎士比亚和华兹华斯以及其他类似作家的作品对思维具有裨益，能够吸引读者的注意力，让读者自我反省，像“火箭助推器”一样提升人的精神状态。 Using scanners, they monitored the brain activity of volunteers as they read pieces of classical English literature both

考吧网2013年高考英语阅读理解练习及答案(3)
Fear and its companion pain are two of the most useful things that man and animals possess if they are used. If fire didn’t hurt when it burned, children would play with it until their hands were burned away. Similarly, if pain existed but fear didn’t, a child could burn itself again and again because fear would not warn it to keep away from the fire that had burnt it before. A really fearless soldier—and some do exist—is not a good soldier because he is soon killed; and a dead soldier is of no use to his army. Fear and pain are therefore two guards without which man and animals might soon die out. In our first sentence we suggested that fear ought to be properly used. If, for example, you never go out of your house because of the danger of being knocked down and killed in the street by a car, you are letting fear rule you too much. The important thing is not to let fear rule you, but instead, to use fear as your servant and guide. Fear will warn you of dangers; then you have to decide what action to take. In many cases, you can take quick and successful action to avoid the danger. For example, you see a car coming straight towards you; fear warns you, you jump out of the way, and all is well. In some cases, however, you decide that there is nothing that you can do to avoid the danger. For example, you cannot prevent an airplane crashing into your house, and you may not want to go and live in a desert where there are no airplanes. In this case, fear has given you its warning, you have examined it and decided on your course of action, so fear of the particular danger is no longer of any use to you, and you have to try to overcome it. 1. Children would play with fire until their hands are burnt away if _________. A. they were not well educated at school B. they had never played with fire before C. they had no sense of pain D. they were fearful of pain 2. People sometimes succeed in timely avoiding danger because _________.
英语阅读：如何选择正确的英语课外阅读材料
美联英语提供：英语阅读：如何选择正确的英语课外阅读材料 小编给你一个美联英语官方试听课申请链接：https://www.360docs.net/doc/5a11343189.html,/?tid=16-73374-0我们常说的英语阅读就是读者利用相关的英语知识和非英语知识去解读包含一定英语知识和非英语知识的阅读材料。英语知识是指读者英语语音、词汇、语法以及篇章知识的总和，而非英语知识是指读者英语知识以外的背景知识，即直接或间接获取的知识经验的总和。 在培养学生的英语语言综合运用能力听说读写过程中，阅读能力的提高对于英语学习者来说是重中之重。诚如刘润清教授所总结的那样“正式的外语教学与其他学科教学一样，要想真正掌握一门外语，需要大量的阅读，有独立的思维过程和分析总结过程”。 课外阅读是高中英语教学的必要补充。高中英语大纲明确指出：要提高学生的阅读能力，单纯通过教科书的课文教学是远远不够的，还要根据学生的具体情况，有计划地指导学生在课外阅读一定数量的课外读物。理由是：第一，现行的课文教学篇目少，篇幅短，不能保证充分的阅读活动;第二，精读教学担负着语言知识教学的任务，所以，课文生词和新的语言结构的密度大，不适用于流畅阅读的训练;第三，精读实际上综合训练，大量的时间用于为语言点的掌握而安排的听、说、读、写操练上，读的专门训练不够。因此，大纲的指出实际上对我们的外语教师提出了更高的、更全面的要求。 我们的理解是，这里的课外阅读即泛读，让学生独立阅读，但又不是“放羊式”的阅读，而是在教师有计划的指导下进行的课外阅读。因此，我们认为泛读既是阅读材料的问题，也是阅读方法的问题，老师应做到以下几点： 首先，给学生选择时应掌握以下原则：(1)思想性强,内容健康; (2)材料难易适合学生的实际水平; (3)题材涉及面广，材料新颖，具有趣味性; (4)文章体载多样化; (5)语言地道、规范。

The Two Roads 两条路 It was New Year's Night. An aged man was s tanding at a window. He had already passed sixty of the stages leading to it, and he had brought from his jou rney nothing but errors and remorse. The days of his youth appeared like dreams before him, and he recalled the serious moment when his father place d him at the entrance of the two roads-one le ading to a peaceful, sunny place, covered with flowers, fruits and resounding with soft, sweet songs；the other leading to a deep, dark cave, which was endless. He looked towards the sky and cried painfully, ″O youth, return！O my father, place me once more at the entrance to life, and I'l l choose the better way！″But both his father and the days of his youth had passed away. The clock in the high church tower struck and the sound made him remember his parents' early love for him. They had taught him and prayed to God for his good. But he chose the wrong way. Hi s darkened eyes were full of tears, and with a despairing effort, h e burst out a c ry: ″Come back, my early days！Come back！″ And his youth did return, for all this was only a dream which he had on New Year's Night. Those who still linger on the entrance of life, hesitating to choose the bright road, remember that when years are passed and your feet stumble on the dark mountains, you will cry bitterly, but in vain: ″O youth, return！Oh give me back my early days！″ . 新课标第一网系列资料https://www.360docs.net/doc/5a11343189.html,

2013 浙江高考英语真题阅读 D 1974年，在填写了50张申请表，通过4轮面试，并赢得了一个工作机会后，我得到了我能得到的东西——一份教学的工作，地点在我所认为的偏远的蛮荒之地——新泽西州西部地区。仅当我提醒自己：我将从事我14岁时就开始想要做的工作——教英语——的时候，我性格中的乐观一面才活泛起来。 开学了，但是我越来越感到仿佛我呆在外国一般，这乡下果真是新泽西的地界吗？当狩猎季来临时，我的学生们一个星期都不在学校，我被告知他们在10月下旬也是频繁的缺课，因为要帮他们的父亲在农场上制干草，而我，一个来自纽约的年轻女性，过去都认为“趁着天晴晒干草”，不过意味着度过一段好玩的时光而已。 但是，我仍然在教英语，我工作很辛苦，只是抽空吃个饭睡个觉，后来我就带上了一个六年级班——17个男孩，5个女孩，他们的年纪仅仅比我小六岁而已，其实在我知道这个之前很久，我就有一个问题了：作为一个年轻的理想化的老师，我在工作中挣扎，我想令文学复苏，促进对于文字之爱，而孩子们想要在教室后边扔纸球，低声说脏话。 在大学时候我曾经被教授：作为一个成功的教育者，我应该忽略坏行为，我也是这么做的，我有信心，正如教材上说的，伴随着我给学生的正面关注，坏行为就会消失了，这听起来很合理，但是书本教材很明显忽略了一个事实：人类，尤其是少年们，看来罕有合理的行为，等到我的老板——也是我的校长——因最严厉，最苛求，最快把无经验的老师除名而有名的那个人——进入教室来督查我的教学的时候，学生展示出了极少的值诸暨市海亮外国语学校https://www.360docs.net/doc/5a11343189.html, dongding得赞扬的行为。 校长坐在教室后面，班上男生发出野兽叫，彼此打闹，而女生就挫指甲，读杂志，我只能假装这一切都没有发生，继续讲课，尽力问一些激发灵感的问题，我老板坐在教室后头，在我看来变得越来越高大碍眼，20分钟之后他一言不发，离开了，被解雇的场景在我眼前来回地动。 当我进行完剩余的课堂教学而没有哭出来时我感到适度的胜利感，但是接下来无课程期我得面对他，我想知道是否他还要让我那天干到头，我走向他的办公室，深呼吸一次，开了门。 他坐在椅子上，看着我，那是长久的，沉重的眼光，我一言不发，我能想到的就是我不是一个英语教师，我对自己撒了谎，假装当时一切正常。 当他开始说话时，他没有责备，仅仅说“你对他们没有什么说的” 他重复了一次这句话，“他们感到厌烦，这没有什么好奇怪的，为何不只谈文学的实质，停止谈论象征符号之类的呢，跟他们交谈，不是对他们讲话，更重要的是，为什么你忽略他们的坏表现呢？”我们谈论了一会，他指出了我的问题，提供了一些解决方法，我们进行了角色扮演，他演坏学生，我呢就演一个强力的但是内心温暖的老师。 那年就这样过着，我们度过了许多时光，讨论文学，关于人类。。（此处看不清影印版）。。的
