★黄山英文广告★
黄山,位于安徽省南部,地处皖南歙县、黟县和休宁县的边境。面积约1200平方公里,其中精粹风景区约154平方公里。这里,千峰竞秀,有奇峰72座,其中天都峰、莲花峰、光明顶都在海拔1800米以上,拔地极天,气势磅礴,雄姿灵秀。
黄山,中国十大风景名胜之一,90年被联合国教科文组织列入“世界文化与自然遣产”名录,蜚声中外,令世人神往。
黄山集名山之长,泰山之雄伟,华山之险峻,衡山之烟云,庐山之瀑,雁荡之巧石,峨嵋之秀丽,黄山无不兼而有之。明代旅行家、地理学家徐霞客两游黄山,赞叹说:“登黄山在下无山,观止矣!”又留下“五岳归来不看山,黄山归来不看岳”的美誉。
Of all the notable mountains in China, Mount Huangshan, to be found in the south of Anhui province, is probably the most famous. Originally known as Mt. Yishan it was renamed Mt. Huangshan in 747 AD in recognition of the legendary Huang Di, who was the reputed ancestor of the Chinese people and who made magic pills for immortality here.
Wu yue is the collective name given to China's most important mountains, namely Mt. Taishan in Shandong Province, Mt. Huashan in Shaanxi Province, Mt. Hengshan in Shanxi Province, Mt. Songshan in Henan Province and Mt. Hengshan in Hunan Province. It is said that you won't want to visit any other mountains after seeing wu yue but you won't wish to see even wu yue after returning from Mt. Huangshan. This saying may give you some idea of the beauty and uniqueness of Mt. Huangshan. Together with the Yellow River, the Yangtze River and the Great Wall, Mt. Huangshan has become one of the great symbols of China.
Mt. Huangshan can boast not only of its magnificence but also its abundant resources and great variety of zoological species, for which it has been listed as a World Natural and Cultural Heritage Site.

★颐和园英文广告★
颐和园是我国现存最完好、规模最宏大的古代园林。位于北京市海淀区境内,距天安门20余公里,占地290公顷。
颐和园原为封建帝王的行宫和花园,远在金贞元元年 (1153年)即在这里修建“西山八院”之一的“金山行宫”。明弘治七年(1494年)修建了园静寺,后皇室在此建成好山园。1664年清廷定都北京后,又将好山园更名为“瓮山行宫”。清乾隆年间,经过15年的修建工程,将该园改名为“清漪圆”。此时的清漪园,北自文昌阁至西宫门筑有围墙,东、南、西三面以昆明湖水为屏障,园内修建了许多亭台楼阁,桥廊斋榭,山清水秀,富丽堂皇。咸丰十年(1860年),英法联军疯狂抢劫并焚烧了园内大部分建筑,除宝云阁(俗称“铜亭”)智慧海、多宝 琉璃塔幸存外,珍宝被洗劫一空,建筑夷为一片废墟。光绪十四年(1888年)慈待太后挪用海军经费3000万两白银,在清漪园的废墟上兴建起颐和园。光绪二十六年(1900年)颐和园又遭八国联军的野蛮破坏,后慈禧又动用巨款重新修复。数百年来,这里一直是封建帝王、皇室的享乐之地,解放辟为公园。1961年国务院公布颐和园为全国重点文物保护单位。
颐和园包括万寿山、昆明湖两大部分,园内山水秀美,建筑宏伟。全园有各式建筑3000余间,园内布局可分为政治、生活、游览三个区域。政治活动区,以仁寿段为中心,是过去慈禧太后和光绪皇帝办理朝事、会见朝臣、使节的地方。生活居住区,以玉澜堂、宜芸馆、乐寿堂为主体,是慈禧、光绪及后妃居住之地。风景游览区,以万寿山前山、后山、后湖、昆明湖为主, 是全园的主要组成部分。
在世界古典园林中享有盛誉的颐和园,布局和谐,浑然一体。在高60米的万寿山前山的中央,纵向自低而高排列着排 云门、排云股、德辉殿、佛香阁、智慧海等一组建筑,依山而立, 步步高升,气派宏伟。以高大的佛香阁为主体,形成了全园的中心线。沿昆明湖北岸横向而建的长廊,长728米,共273间, 像一条彩带横跨于万寿山前,连结着东面前山建筑群。长廊中有精美柁画 14000多幅,素有“画廊”之美称。位于颐和园东北角,万寿山东麓的谐趣园,具有浓重的江南园林特色,被誉为 “园中之园”。
占全园总面积四分之三的昆明湖,湖水清澈碧绿,景色宜人。在广阔的湖面上,有三个小岛点缀,其主要景物是西堤、西堤六桥、东堤、南湖岛、十七孔桥等。湖岸建有廓如亭、知春亭、凤凰墩等秀美建筑,其中位于湖西北岸的清晏舫(石访)中西合璧,精巧华丽,是园中著名的水上建筑。后山后湖,林茂竹青,景色幽雅,到处是松林曲径,小桥流水,风格与前山迥然不同。山脚下的苏州河,曲折蜿蜒,时狭时阔,颇具江南特色。在岸边的树丛中建有多宝琉璃塔。后山还有一座仿西藏建筑——香岩宗印之阁,造型奇特。苏州街原为宫内的民间买卖街,现已修复并向游人开放。拥山抱水,绚丽多姿的颐和园,体现了我国造园艺术的高超水平。
Situated in the western outskirts of Haidian District, the Summer Palace is 15 kilometers (9.3 miles) from central Beijing. Having the largest royal park and being well preserved, it was designated, in 1960 by the State Council, as a Key Cultural Relics Protection Site of China. Containing examples of the ancient arts, it also has graceful landscapes and magnificent constructions. The Summer Palace is the archetypal Chinese garden, and is ranked amongst the most noted and classical gardens of the world. In 1998, it was listed as one of the World Heritage Sites by UNESCO.
Constructed in the Jin Dynasty (1115-1234), ring the succeeding reign of feudal emperors; it was extended continuously. By the time of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), it had become a luxurious royal garden providing royal families with rest and entertainment. Originally called "Qingyi Garden" (Garden of Clear Ripples), it was know as one of the famous "three hills and five gardens" (Longevity Hill, Jade Spring Mountain, and Fragrant Hill; Garden of Clear Ripples, Garden of Everlasting Spring, Garden of Perfection and Brightness, Garden of Tranquility and Brightness, and Garden of Tranquility and Pleasure). Like most of the gardens of Beijing, it could not elude the rampages of the Anglo-French allied force and was destroyed by fire. In 1888, Empress Dowager Cixi embezzled navy funds to reconstruct it for her own benefit, changing its name to Summer Palace (Yiheyuan). She spent most of her later years there, dealing with state affairs and entertaining. In 1900, it suffered again, being ransacked by the Eight-Power Allied Force. After the success of the 1911 Revolution, it was opened to the public.
Composed mainly of Longevity Hill and Kunming Lake, The Summer Palace occupies an area of 294 hectares (726.5 acres), three quarters of which is water. Guided by nature, artists designed the gardens exquisitely so that visitors would see marvelous views and be amazed by perfect examples of refined craftwork using the finest materials.
Centered on the Tower of Buddhist Incense (Foxiangge) the Summer Palace consists of over 3,000 structures including pavilions, towers, bridges, and corridors. The Summer Palace can be divided into four parts: the court area, front-hill area, front-lake area, and rear-hill and back-lake area.
Front-Hill Area: this area is the most magnificent area in the Summer Palace with the most constructions. Its layout is quite distinctive because of the central axis from the yard of Kunming Lake to the hilltop, on which important buildings are positioned including Gate of Dispelling Clouds, Hall of Dispelling Clouds, Hall of Moral Glory, Tower of Buddhist Incense, the Hall of the Sea of Wisdom, etc.
Rear-Hill and Back-Lake Area: although the constructions are fewer here, it has a unique landscape, with dense green trees, and winding paths. Visitors can feel a rare tranquility, and elegance. This area includes scenic spots such as Garden of Harmonious Interest and Suzhou Market Street.
Court Area: this is where Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu met officials, concted state affairs and rested. Entering the East Palace Gate, visitors may see the main palace buildings: the Hall of Benevolence and Longevity served as the office of the Emperor, the Hall of Jade Ripples where Guangxu lived, the Hall of Joyful Longevity, Cixi‘s residence, the Hall of Virtue and Harmony where Cixi was entertained.
Front Lake Area: covering a larger part of the Summer Palace, opens up the vista of the lake. A breeze fluttering, waves gleam and willows kiss the ripples of the vast water. In this comfortable area there are the Eastern and Western Banks, the Seventeen-Arch Bridge, Nanhu Island, and so on. On the western bank float six distinct bridges amongst which the Jade-Belt Bridge is the most beautiful.

【篇二】介绍旅行的.英语演讲稿i was born and grow up in the south where is not too cold in winter and i had never had a chance to see, snow. happily, i made a trip harbin this winter and i finally enjoy the snowing.
one of my aunt lives in harbin and she invited me to visit her. i stayed at her home for almost ten days. it snowed two times when i was there. one day, the weather report said that there would be a snow in the next day. since then, i expected it so much. next morning, when i woke up and looked out the window, i saw the outside become white. it was so beautiful. i went out immediately after i had my breakfast. the snow was on everywhere, the street, the car, the tree and the roof. i was excited to walk on the snow, leaving my footprints. besides, i also went to see the ice engraving. they were all made by ice and were made into various figures, such as castles, cartoons, animals and so on. when the colorful lights turned on at night, it was another amazing image. it seemed in the fairy tale.
how wonderful the visit to harbin was!
我在南方出生、成长,这里的冬天并不算太冷,所以我一直没有见过下雪。值得高兴的是,这个冬天我去哈尔滨旅游,终于欣赏到了雪景。
我的一个阿姨住在哈尔滨,她邀请我去玩,我在她的家里住了差不多十天,期间下了两次雪。有一天,天气预报说第二天会下雪,我十分期待。第二天早晨,当我醒来看向窗外时,外面全部变成了白色,非常漂亮。早餐过后,我迫不及待地出门去。外面到处都是雪,街道上、汽车上、树上和屋顶上都铺满了雪。我兴奋得踩在雪地上,留下一串串脚印。另外,我还去看了冰雕,它们全都是用冰做成的,被刻成了各种形象,有城堡、卡通人物和动物等等。晚上,当亮起彩灯时,又是另外一番美景,像在童话故事里一样。
这真是一次精彩的哈尔滨之行!
【篇三】介绍旅行的英语演讲稿nowadays, people prefer to travel by air. this is
because air travel has some advantages. first of all,
airplane, the miracle created by man, is the fastest means of transport. it takes the least time for one to travel by air from one place to another. besides, traveling by air is
convenient and comfortable. friendly air hostesses are affectionate and considerate. they look after passengers all the way to their destinations. in addition, on long
distance flights there are films and music for people to entertain themselves.
as a popular saying goes, "everything has two sides." the same is true of air travel. it has some disadvantages, too. for one thing, air travel is expensive. the average
chinese are not rich enough to afford expensive air fares. so they prefer to take trains, which save a lot of money.
for another, although passengers are assured of their safety, they are still worried about it ring the journey because flying always involves more or less risk.
as for i am concerned, the advantages mentioned above exceed the disadvantages. if i were given choice between traveling by air and by train, i would certainly prefer the former, especially the long distance journey,
because time is the most important thing i have to take into consideration whatever i do.
现在,人们喜欢坐飞机去旅游。这是因为坐飞机旅游有一些优点。首先,飞机是人类发明的奇迹,是最快的交通方式。坐飞机从一个地方到另一个地方花的时间最少。此外,坐飞机旅游方便舒适。友好的空姐深情体贴。她们一路上都照顾乘客。另外,长途飞行有电影和音乐给人们自娱自乐。
正如一句流行的话说的:“任何事物都有两面性。”航空旅游也一样,它也有一些缺点。一方面,航空旅游费用昂贵。一般的中国人都不是很富裕,付不起昂贵的航空费用。所以他们宁愿坐火车,这样能节省很多钱。另一方面,尽管乘客们有安全保障,他们在旅途中还是会担心,因为飞行或多或少总包括一些风险。
在我看来,上述优点多于缺点。如果让我在火车和飞机之间选择,我宁愿选择前者,特别是长途旅行,因为不管我做什么,时间是我应该考虑的最重要的东西。

;2019年6月大学英语四级阅读理解训练:迹运前宇宙
A scientist once said: “I have concluded that the earth is being visited by intelligently controlled vehicles from outer space.”
If we take this as a reasonable explanation for UFOs (unidentified flying objects), questions immediately come up.
姿清“Why don’t they get in touch with us, then? Why don’t they land right on the White House lawn and declare themselves?” people asked.
悄租In reply, scientists say that, while this may be what we want, it may not necessarily be what they want.
“The most likely explanation, it seems to me,” said Dr. Mead, “is that they are simply watching what we are up to -- that responsible society outside our solar system is keeping an eye on us to see that we don’t set in motion a chain reaction that might have unexpected effects for outside our solar system.”
Opinions from other scientists might go like this: “Why should they want to get in touch with us? We may feel we’re more important than we really are! They may want to observe us only and not interfere with the development of our civilization. They may not care if we see them but they also may not care to say ‘hello’.”
①Some scientists have also suggested that Earth is a kind of zoo or wildlife reserve. ②Just as we set aside wilderness areas and wildlife reserves to allow animals and growing things to develop naturally while we observe them, so perhaps Earth was set aside ages ago for the same purpose.
①Are we being observed by intelligent beings from other civilizations in the universe? ②Are they watching our progress in space travel? ③Do we live in a gigantic “zoo” observed by our “keepers,” but having no communication with them?
①Never before in our history have we had to confront ideas like these. ②The simple fact is that we, who have always regarded ourselves as supreme in the universe, may not be so. ③Now we have to recognize that, among the stars in the heavens, there may very well be worlds inhabited by beings who are to us as we are to ants.
一、词汇
1.conclude v. 作结论,推断
2.vehicle n. 交通工具
3.be up to sth= be doing sth正在做
4.keep an eye on sb监视某人
5.set in motion使某物运转
6.reserve n. 贮存,预备舍
7.set aside 保留
8.supreme a. 最高的
9.inhabit v. 居住于,占据
二、长难句
1. The most likely explanation, it seems to me,” said Dr. Mead, “is that they are simply watching what we are up to -- that responsible society outside our solar system is keeping an eye on us to see that we don’t set in motion a chain reaction that might have unexpected effects for outside our solar system.
该句的宾语由直接引语构成。该直接引语的主干为The most likely explanation is that …,破折号的部分对that引导的表语从句进行解释说明。该部分的主干为responsible society … is keeping an eye on us,不定式结构to see that …做目的状语。其中第一个that引导的从句做see的宾语,第二个that引导的从句做后置定语,修饰先行词chain reaction。
翻译:米德博士称“在我看来,最可能的解释是他们只不过是看看我们在做什么——我们太阳系之外有责任心的社会正留意着我们,以确保我们不会触发某种连锁反应,从而给太阳系之外的星系造成意想不到的影响。”
2. Just as we set aside wilderness areas and wildlife reserves to allow animals and growing things to develop naturally while we observe them, so perhaps Earth was set aside ages ago for the same purpose.
该句为主从复合句,just as引导方式状语从句,其中还嵌套了while引导的时间状语从句。主句部分的主干为perhaps Earth was set aside。
翻译:就像我们划出野生动物活动区和保护区以便我们可以在自然状态观察动植物的生长情况一样,或许地球就是很早以前为达到相同的目的而被划出的保护区。
3. Now we have to recognize that, among the stars in the heavens, there may very well be worlds inhabited by beings who are to us as we are to ants.
该句的主干为we have to recognize that …,that引导的从句做宾语。该从句的主干为there may very well be worlds,过去分词短语inhabited by beings …做后置定语,修饰名词worlds,who引导的定语从句也做后置定语,修饰beings。
翻译:现在我们必须认识到在茫茫星海中,也许就有这样的星体,那上面居住的生物看待我们就如同我们看待蚂蚁一样。
三、文章结构分析
本文是一篇探讨外星生物是否存的时文。
第一至三段:通过一位科学家的话引出争论的焦点:外星生物是否存在?
第四至八段:罗列了科学家们对此问题而产生的四种猜测—不愿同人类接触、在暗中留意人类的行动、只出于观察目的而不想同人类接触、地球是外星人划立的“动物”保护区。
第九段:总结全文,肯定外星生物的存在,并提醒人们宇宙中存在着更强大生物的可能性。
四、试题具体分析
11. People who ask the question “Why don’t they get in touch with us... and declare themselves?” think that ________.11. 提出“那么他们为什么不和我们联系呢?为什么他们不正好降落到白宫的草坪上然后自我介绍一下呢?”这些问题的人认为________.
[A] there are no such things as UFOs[A] 不明飞行物这种东西是不存在的
[B] UFOs are visitors from solar system[B] 不明飞行物是来自太阳系的探访者
[C] there’s no reason for UFOs sooner or later[C] 对于不明飞行物的说法迟早会理屈词穷的
[D] we are bound to see UFOs sooner or later[D] 人类迟早会看见不明飞行物的
[分析]本题考查的知识点是:推理引申。
根据第一、二段可知,题干中的问题是“如果将来自外太空的智能飞船正在造访地球作为对不明飞行物的合理解释”就会出现的问题。第四到七段引用科学家的话对这一问题给予了回复:对为什么人类同外星人之间没有联系进行了推测。可见,问这些问题的人并不相信外星生物或不明飞行物是存在的,而科学家的推测却在证明它们可能是存在的。故[A]选项正确。
[B]选项是根据UFOs和solar system编造的干扰项,且[B]选项本身表达亦不正确。文中指出如果外星人是存在的,那他们一定存在于太阳系之外的某个星系之中。[C]选项错在no reasons。文章第四到七段给出针对这些问题的解答,所以并非是理屈词穷。[D]选项反向干扰,从上面的分析可知提出问题的人是不相信UFOs是存在的,所以他们也不会认为迟早会见到不明飞行物。
12. According to Dr. Mead, the attitude of beings from outer space toward us is one of ________.12.米德博士认为来自外太空的生物对人类的看法会是_______。
[A] unfriendliness[A] 不友善的
[B] suspicion[B] 猜疑的
[C] superiority[C] 盛气凌人的
[D] hostility[D] 敌意的
[分析]本题考查的知识点是:推理引申。
根据题中人物关键词Dr. Mead定位到文章第五段。针对一些人提出的外星人为何不同人类接触的问题,米德博士认为最可能的解释就是他们只是负责留意我们,确保我们的行动不会触发能够危害到他们的连锁反应。由此可知,米德博士的观点是外星人对人类的态度应该是猜疑的,故[B]选项正确。
[A]、[C]选项都是其他猜测认为来外星生物会对人类所持的态度。[D]选项从文中无从推知。
13. The tone of the writer is that of ________.13. 作者的语气是________。
[A] doubt[A] 怀疑的
[B] warning[B] 警告的
[C] indifference[C] 冷漠的
[D] criticism[D] 批判的
[分析]本题考查的知识点是:作者态度。
文章第八段是作者观点的阐述。第八段第二句指出人类从未有过外星生物是否存在的想法正是人类自身的盲目优越感所致。作者认为也许正是这种盲目自大,使我们否定了外星生物的存在,但是外星生物一定是存在于茫茫宇宙的某个星体上,他们看待我们就如同我们看待蚂蚁一般。可见本文作者所持的是批判的态度,故[D]选项正确。
[A]选项反向干扰。第八段第三句话明确指出,我们必须认识到茫茫星海中也许真的有外星生物的存在。从文中无法得出作者对否定外星人存在的人所给的警示之语,故排除[B]选项。第八段中always, supreme, have to, who are to us as we are to ants等表明了作者并不是漠然的,故[C]选项错误。
五、全文翻译
一位科学家曾说过“我断定来自外太空的智能飞船正在造访地球。”
如果我们将其作为对不明飞行物的合理解释,那么问题马上就来了。
人们会问:“那么他们为什么不和我们联系呢?为什么他们不正好降落到白宫的草坪上然后自我介绍一下呢?”
对于这些问题,科学家们的回答是:虽然这也许是我们想要的,但这也许并不是他们想要的啊。
米德博士称“在我看来,最可能的解释是他们只不过是看看我们在做什么——我们太阳系之外有责任心的社会正留意着我们,以确保我们不会触发某种连锁反应,从而给太阳系之外的星系造成意想不到的影响。”
其他科学家的观点是这样的:“他们为什么要联系我们?我们也许把自己想的过于重要了!他们也许就是想观察我们而不想介入人类文明的发展。他们也许并不关心我们是否看到了他们,也不关心是否打个招呼。”
还有一些科学家认为,地球就是一个动物园或是野生动物保护区。就像我们划出野生动物活动区和保护区以便我们可以在自然状态观察动植物的生长情况一样,或许地球就是很早以前为达到相同的目的而被划出的保护区。
宇宙中其他文明的智能生物正在观察我们么?他们正留意我们在太空航行上的进展么?我们是生活在一个只能被“饲养员”观察却无法与其沟通的巨型“动物园”里么?
在人类的历史上,我们从未遇到过类似的想法。真相很简单,那就是我们总认为在整个宇宙中我们是至高无上的,可事实也许并非如此。现在我们必须认识到在茫茫星海中,也许就有这样的星体,那上面居住的生物看待我们就如同我们看待蚂蚁一样。
2019年6月大学英语四级阅读理解训练:汽车
①The use of the motor is becoming more and more widespread in the twentieth century; as an increasing number of countries develop both technically and economically, so a larger proportion of the world’s population is able to buy and use a car. ②Possessing a car gives a much greater degree of mobility, enabling the driver to move around freely. ③The owner of a car is no longer forced to rely on public transport and is, therefore, not compelled to work locally. ④He can choose from different jobs and probably changes his work more frequently as he is not restricted to a choice within a small radius. ⑤Travelling to work by car is also more comfortable than having to use public transport; the driver can adjust the heating in winter and the air conditioning in the summer to suit his own needs and preference. ⑥There is no irritation caused by waiting for trains, buses or underground trains, standing in long patient queues, or sitting on windy platforms, for as long as half an hour sometimes. ⑦With the building of good, fast motorways long distances can be covered rapidly and pleasantly. ⑧For the first time in this century also, many people are now able to enjoy their leisure time to the full by making trips to the country or seaside at the weekends, instead of being confined to their immediate neighbourhood. ⑨This feeling of independence, and the freedom to go where you please, is perhaps the greatest advantage of the car.
①When considering the drawbacks, perhaps pollution is of prime importance. ②As more and more cars are proced and used, so the emission from their exhaust-pipes contains an ever larger volume of poisonous gas. ③Some of the contents of this gas, such as lead, not only pollute the atmosphere but cause actual harm to the health of people. ④Many of the minor illnesses of modern instrial society, headaches, tiredness, and stomach upsets are thought to arise from breathing polluted air; doctors’ surgeries are full of people suffering from illnesses caused by pollution. ⑤It is also becoming increasingly difficult to deal with the problem of traffic in towns; most of the important cities of the world suffer from traffic congestion. ⑥In fact any advantage gained in comfort is often cancelled out in city driving by the frustration caused by traffic jams: endless queues of cars crawling one after another through all the main streets. ⑦As an increasing number of traffic regulation schemes are devised, the poor bewildered driver finds himself diverted and forced into one-way systems which cause even greater delays than the traffic jams they are supposed to prevent. ⑧The mounting cost of petrol and the increased license fees and road tax all add to the driver’s worries. ⑨In fact, he must sometimes wonder if the motor car is such a blessing and not just a menace.
一、词汇
1.Mobility n. 可动性,变动性
2.Radius n. 半径
3.Preference n. 偏爱
4.irritation n. 烦恼
5.queue n. 长队
6.cover v. 行走(距离)
7.confine v. 限制
8.prime a. 首要的,最好的
9.bewildered a. 困惑的
10.divert v. 转移
11.blessing n. 祝福
12.menace n. 威胁
二、长难句
As an increasing number of traffic regulation schemes are devised, the poor bewildered driver finds himself diverted and forced into one-way systems which cause even greater delays than the traffic jams they are supposed to prevent.
该句为主从复合句。句首为as引导的时间状语从句,主干为the poor bewildered driver finds himself diverted and forced …,其中包含“find oneself +过去分词”结构,意为“发现自己(处于某状态)”。Which引导的定语从句做后置定语,修饰先行词one-way systems。
翻译:当越来越多的交通管理方案出台时,晕头转向的司机发现可怜的自己被迫转进了一条单行道,这样耽误的时间超过了他们所避免的交通拥堵时间。
三、文章结构分析
文章主要探讨了汽车广泛使用的利弊问题。
第一段:指出了汽车广泛使用的原因并论述汽车给人类带来的好处:灵活、舒适、快捷、自主。
第二段:主要论述了由于汽车的广泛使用给人类带来的困扰:大气污染、健康威胁、交通堵塞、费用负担。
四、试题具体分析
14. More and more people can afford to buy and use cars because ________.14. 越来越多的人能够购买并使用汽车是因为________。
[A] an increasing number of cars are being proced[A] 生产的汽车越来越多
[B] the cost of cars is getting cheaper with the development of technology[B] 随着技术的进步,汽车的成本也越来越低了
[C] lots of countries have become more developed[C] 许多国家都步入了发达国家之列
[D] the use of cars has proved to be more economical[D] 已经证实使用汽车是较经济的
[分析]本题考查的知识点是:因果细节。
文章第一段①句指出,因为越来越多的国家在技术和经济领域都取得了进步,所以世界上大部分人都能购买并使用汽车了。[C]选项正是对此句话的概括,故正确。
[A]选项张冠李戴。将“汽车的尾气管里排出了更多含有有毒物质的废气的原因,即人们生产的汽车越来越多了”,当成是“越来越来人购买并使用汽车的原因”。[B]选项无中生有,是利用原文词汇develop technically和the cost 编造的干扰项。第二段⑧句指出,飙升的油价和日益上涨的驾驶执照费和养路费使驾车人变得更加忧心忡忡。可见,使用汽车并不会为其所有者节省钱,故排除[D]选项。
15. The advantages of having a car are best experienced in the driver’s ________.15. 拥有汽车最大的好处是驾车人能够体验________。
[A] freedom in choosing his job[A] 选择工作的自由
[B] comfort ring the travels[B] 旅行中舒适的感觉
[C] enjoyment of his leisure time[C] 闲暇时光的享受
[D] feeling of self-reliance[D] 自立的感觉
[分析]本题考查的知识点是:具体细节。
第一段末句明确指出,自主的感觉以及去任何想去的地方的那种自由或许是汽车最大的优点了,故[D]选项正确。
[A]、[B]、[C]选项都是文中谈到的拥有汽车的好处,但并非最大优点,故排除。
16. What is considered by the writer as the greatest menace to the people caused by the widespread use of motor cars?16. 作者认为汽车的广泛使用对人们造成的最大威胁是什么?
[A] air pollution[A]空气污染
[B] traffic jams[B]交通堵塞
[C] fatal diseases[C]致命疾病
[D] high cost[D]高额成本
[分析]本题考查的知识点是:具体细节。
文章第二段①句即明确指出,对于汽车使用的最大弊端可能就是汽车造成的污染问题。故[A]选项正确。
[B]、[D]选项虽然都是汽车使用对人们生活和健康的威胁,但并不是最大的威胁,故排除。[C]选项本身即错误。第二段第四句指出,现代工业社会中许多小病都是由于吸入被汽车尾气污染了的空气而引起的。可知,汽车的使用并不会引发致命的疾病。
五、全文翻译
二十世纪,汽车的用途变得越来越广泛了,因为越来越多的国家在技术和经济领域都取得了进步,所以世界上大部分人都能购买并使用汽车了。拥有一辆汽车就相当于具有更大的灵活性,开车的人可以自由活动。有汽车的人不必再依靠公共交通工具,因此也不必在工作所在地居住了。他可以选择不同的工作,也可能更频繁地跳槽,他不必在离家很近的范围内选择工作了。同乘坐公共汽车相比,开车上班也更加舒适些,人们可以按自己的需要和喜好随着季节来调节车内供暖和空调系统。有时人们要花半个小时站在长长的队伍里或坐在当风的站台内等火车、公交或地铁,由这种情况导致的恼怒也会随着汽车的使用而消失。随着宽敞快捷的高速公路的修建,长途旅行变得快捷且愉快了。许多人能够在周末的时候开车去乡村或海边,好好地享受他们的闲暇时光,而不用限制在住家附近的地方活动,这在本世纪也属首次了。自主的感觉以及去任何想去的地方的那种自由或许是汽车最大的优点了。
考虑到不好的方面,汽车造成的污染或许是其最大的缺点。因为人们生产和使用的汽车越来越多,所以汽车的尾气管里会排出更多含有有毒物质的废气。这种气体中一些成分的,例如铅,不仅污染了大气还对人们健康造成了实际伤害。人们认为现代工业社会中许多小病,例如,头痛、疲劳以及胃不适,都是由于吸入污浊的空气而引起的,医生的诊室里面充满了受其累的病患。处理城市里交通问题也变得越来越棘手了,世界上大多数重要城市都饱受交通堵塞之苦。事实上,在城市中驾车而行,从这种舒适中获取的任何好处都被由交通堵塞造成的沮丧感给抵消了:一眼望不到边际的汽车长龙,一辆跟着一辆慢慢爬过每一条主街道。当越来越多的交通管理方案出台时,晕头转向的司机发现可怜的自己被迫转进了一条单行道,这样耽误的时间超过了他们所避免的交通拥堵时间。飙升的油价和日益上涨的驾驶执照费和养路费使驾车人变得更忧心忡忡。事实上,他肯定有时候会想弄清楚汽车真的只会带来幸福而不会对我们造成威胁么。

关于广告的英语对话篇一
a: how could we advertise our celebrations to mark the centenary of the founding of the university?
B; I’m sure we could get one or two tv panies to e in. perhaps the president could invite them and do an interview.
A: that’s a good idea. We could put up some posters in and around the campus with a list of events. It would be quite cheap to do on the campus.
B: it will be expensive to do outside the campus. Perhaps we could arrange for some sponsorship.
A: we could contact alumni who work for large, well-know panies. They might be able to arrange cheap advertising in exchange for some free tickets.
B; good thinking! We should also print some leaflets for students to distribute.
A: we should put some mp3ation about it on the home page of our university website. When people visit the website, they’ll see the mp3ation.
B: we could take out some advertisements to local newspapers. I checked the prices and they are reasonable.
A; ok. Let’s get to work on our advertising campaign.
关于广告的英语对话篇二
A: there are advertisements everywhere here in hong kong. The city is so bright at night, with all the neon signs.
B: I like it. It makes the city feel alive. I like all the different colors and I like the billboards with eye-catching pictures and slogans.
A; I think that there are too many of them. I think that panies spend far too much money on advertising. They should have lower prices instead. Then they would see more.
B; I see your point, but if panies didn’t spend money on advertising, no one would hear about their procts. I agree that some fomp3 of advertising can be annoying. I don’t like it when people try to give you leaflets with mp3ation about procts you have no intention of buying.
A; I really hate receiving spam. I also dislike having to listen to advertisements and jingles when they are broadcast in stores or on the subway.
B; yes, that annoys me too. With billboards, you can look away, but with broadcasts, you can’t avoid them. I like the way that advertising agencies use edy in their campaign.
A; I like that too. I don’t like the way that advertising campaign often tell you if you don’t buy a certain proct, you’re not cool or modern or efficient or something.
B: that kind of advertising seems to be very mon with brand name procts. They are always trying to maintain brand loyalty.

3. 广告英语中的信息传递
广告宣传是一种特殊的语用行为和交际行为,它在传播产品信息,劝说受众时,实际上是通过一定的交际过程来达到一定的交际效果.那么在此过程中运用的修辞手法,实际上也有明显的语用特征和语用功能,同时也体现其对于"合作原则"(cooperative principle)及其准则和次准则的遵守和违背.因此,受众可以从"会话含意"(conversational implicature)的角度去理解广告所传递的信息.
从性质看,广告传递的信息大致可分为:
1)真实性信息,即那些不违背合作原则及其量,质方面次准则的信息;
2)虚假性信息,即非真实信息;
3)模糊性信息,其内容是真实的或者大部分内容是真实的,但它容易使人误解,因其不准确的内容可能导致公众误解.传递信息的过程中违反了方式准则(manner maxim)中避免歧义的次准则;
4)诱惑性信息,是指用虚假的信息"诱使"甚至欺骗公众去购买和欣赏某一商品.当然公众可以从其会话含意中推断出广告信息的真实与否.
4. 广告英语中不同修辞手法的语用特点及实质
成功的广告是传播真实性信息,在公众中产生良好反响的广告.但成功或真实广告中所运用的修辞手法同样会造成对合作原则及其准则和次准则的违背,而广告设计者有时故意在合作的前提下去违反某些准则,使受众超出话语的字面意义去推导其会话含意,从而对广告及其所宣传的产品留下更深的印象.这样,广告也达到了"引起注意,发生兴趣,产生欲望,付诸行动"(即AIDA―Attention, Interest, Desire, Action)的目的.
下面,我们用实例来说明成功广告对合作原则违反的情况.
4.1违反"质准则"的情况(Quality Maxim)
1)Light as a breeze, soft as a cloud. 这是一句运用了明喻的广告词,但其明显地违背了质的准则.
2)Soft, enchanting, smiling color―that's the gift of Focus to your hair. 这是运用了暗喻的广告语,但使用发油后的"效果"与"礼物"之间的性质之差别也是显而易见的.
3)Flowers by Interflora speak from the heart. (英特弗劳拉花店鲜花――发自内心的表达.)"Flowers"怎能"speak"呢,因而拟人手法也是对质的准则的违背.
4.2 违反"量准则"的情况(Quantity Maxim)
We have hidden a garden full of vegetables where you'd never expect in a pie.
此则广告运用了夸张手法,但"小馅饼"里怎能容得下一个"菜园"呢 这当然是对其数量,规模的夸张,即对"量准则"的违背.
4.3违反"方式准则"的情况(Manner Maxim)
She wants to put her tongue in your mouth. 这则广告1995年初出现在香港街头,广告的背景画面是一个笑不露齿的中年妇女的大半身照片.有人认为这是婚介所的广告,有人认为这是应召女郎服务公司的广告.
