【題目】We’re always looking for well-written reviews of books, music, movies, television shows, websites, video games and other products. When writing a review, concentrate on exactly what you liked or didn’t like. Give examples of strengths and weaknesses, be descriptive and provide background information on an author, director, actor or musician, if possible. Find professional reviews in magazines or newspapers and see how reviewers deal with their topic, but be sure to express your own voice in your review.

Grammar Hint for Reviews: When describing a book, movie, album or anything else, use the present tense.

Book Reviews

Discuss an author’s technique, strengths and weaknesses instead of focusing on the plot. Does the story flow? Is there a strong sense of character and place? Did you stay up until dawn to finish it? Is it good reading for teenagers? What influence did it have on you and why? If you’ve read other books by the same author, discuss how this book compares.

Movie Reviews

Think of the major Oscar categories and consider the performances, music, lighting and setting, etc. Do these work together? Did some hold up while others didn’t? If the movie is based on a book, discuss whether one is better than the other and why. If the movie is a remake, compare the film to its original.

Remember that a well-written movie review should discuss strengths and weaknesses. Some readers may not have seen a movie yet, so don’t give away an exciting scene or the ending!

College Reviews

Begin by providing an overview of the college, including location, size and a description of the campus and/or dorm life. Think about all aspects of your college visit. What academic, athletic and after-class programs are available? What are the students like? What makes the college different from others? Every school has strengths and weaknesses. Be objective. Consider what the school has to offer and who might enjoy or benefit the most from attending there.

【1】B考查細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章段的Give examples of strengths and weaknesses, be descriptive and provide background information on an author, director, actor or musician, if possible比如實(shí)力和弱點(diǎn);如果可能,描述和提供關(guān)于作者、導(dǎo)演、演員和作曲人等的背景資料?芍(dāng)我們?cè)趯懺u(píng)論的時(shí)候,要提供作者的背景知識(shí)。故B正確。

C. Programs and scenes節(jié)目和場(chǎng)景;D.

After we arrived, Dad announced the theme of the meeting was going to be gratitude. He told his story about giving up smoking. Later, a man 【10 (call) Dave also told his story. Only then did I know it was Dad that saved his life from drinking. Showing up week after week and meeting with people, Dad was changing lives. Shame washed over me.

Recently, more and more schools have set up special organizations calling “Waking Up Club”. They aim to encourage students get up early in the morning. A discussion about set up a similar organization in our school is organized by the Student Union last Monday. 120 students took part in it, of which 67 supported it because they believed it would help them develop good habits and make fully use of the morning time. Therefore, 48 students didn’t think it was a good idea. They held that if to get up early or not depends on one’s habit and it is not right to force us to do so. The rest of the students insisted on that everyone should follow their own wishes and their own lifestyles.
