|阅|读|技|能|提|升| 抓双线，理文脉
本文的语篇类型为叙事记叙文。此类文章中通常包含明暗两条线，明线一般指时间线，暗线指感情线，通过抓双线可以快速梳理文章脉络。抓双线主要通过找关键词，如本文通过梳理时间关键词“begins around 9 a．m.， During the hour-long lunchtime， After school”，及情感关键词“enjoyable， challenging， helpful， encouragement， missed， attracted me most， great fun， glad”等可明确，本文的文脉是作者在国外做交换生时的日常生活、学习情况。作者通过对比中外校园生活的异同，提高读者对文化差异的认知，加深了对文化多样性的了解。
(一)赏用词之妙　
1．I stayed with a lovely host family and went to school with their son， Daniel.
赏析：本句中的lovely使用巧妙，既表达了John Li在英国学习时愉悦的心情，又能体现出寄宿家庭中和谐、友善的氛围。最后的“Daniel”是“their son”的同位语，起到补充说明的作用，避免了人物介绍的烦琐。
2．①In the beginning， however， it was still tough for me to remember everyone's name！
②I enjoyed most of the classes， but some of them were quite challenging.
赏析：第一句中的tough与第二句中的challenging属于同义词。同义词的使用避免了用词重复，丰富了文章内容，体现了作者对常用词的灵活运用能力。
3．There were lots of options including bread and butter， chicken pie and puddings， but I still missed my mum's cooking！
赏析：本句中的including意为“包括”，用于列举具体的内容、事件，如果放在被列举事物的后面则常用included。此外，常用来表示举例说明的词还有such as， for example， namely， that is ...等等。
[提能训练]
(1)请列举出你所学过的表达“愉悦，高兴”的形容词：
________________________________________________________________________
(2)写出下列单词的同义词：
①common“共同的；通用的”→______________________________________
②crucial“重要的；重大的”→_________________________________________
③plentiful“丰富的；充裕的”→_____________________________________
④pursue“追求；寻找”→__________________________________________
⑤view“观点”→________________________________________
(二)赏句式之高　
1．After school， there were many clubs to join. The one that attracted me most was the Rugby Club.
赏析：第二句中的The one代替前文出现的名词club，避免了重复。其后的that attracted me most为定语从句，进一步解释说明the one，属于高级表达，彰显了作者较高的写作功底。
2．Joining clubs was a great way to meet British students and make friends with them.
赏析：本句中使用了动名词短语Joining clubs作主语，言简义丰且起到了以动写静的效果，将主语表达的含义动态化地呈现出来。
[提能训练]　(选用上述句式完成句子)
①I have many books and __________________ (我最喜欢的一本) is about animals.
②__________________ (沿古老的丝绸之路旅行) is an interesting and rewarding (有益的) experience.
(三)赏衔接之顺　
However， learning in English was a great challenge for me. There were a lot of difficult English words， especially in Geography and Biology. Class discussion is very important in the UK， but I could not make a great contribution because sometimes I wasn't able to express myself clearly in English.
赏析：此部分多处采用了表示“起承转合”的衔接词，如表示转折的however， but，表示强调的especially，表示因果的because。衔接词语(linking words)是语篇衔接的纽带，表达的逻辑意义包括时间关系、空间关系、列举和顺序、例证、递进、对比和转折、等同和替换、过渡和总结、结果和推论等，其中多数是衔接性状语。
[提能训练]　　(选用上述衔接词完成片段)

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
The winter break is just about to end.Soon we will be back at school.It's with both happiness and sadness.I look very much forward to seeing my friends and starting practice again, but it also means I'm officially halfway through the exchange year.With school starting there are new things to try out and experience.For example, I'm starting a new sport, Track.It's similar to Cross Country, which I did from August till November.
Being here for half a year now, I can easily tell the differences between my two schools.The hardest or most different part for me was to have the same schedule every day here.Honestly, I prefer to have different classes every day, as I did in my home country.However, I have fallen in love with the Friday football games.Football is one of my favorite sports now.Before I came, I knew nothing about it.Now I love it, especially to watch it with my host parents.I have also been so lucky to go to two college football games.
Before I left school in December, I had a couple of tests called Mid-term Test._____ all went pretty smooth, mostly because I didn't have too many hard classes.My favorite class was English, and also my hardest.Personally I really liked English, where I could write essays, challenge writing skills and improve English talking.
Only four days of winter break is left.A part of me wants to be on a break forever, and the other part expects to get started again, start a new sport and see my friends and classmates.

That's why, this year, I want to start the term with a positive (积极的) mind. I have collected some ways that can really help improve my confidence.
It has been found that if we want to succeed, we should break our new plan into smaller tasks. It sounds easy, but how do we start It is a good idea to write down things you will do every evening. Start with the most important task and then focus on smaller tasks that you are sure you will be able to complete. If you are not a fan of a paper to-do list, there are so many fun apps. Sticking to the plan will stop you from doing everything at the last minute.
It is also very important to stay active. Set a goal of 10,000 steps a day or go for a run with a friend. Honestly, you don't even need to go to a gym, because there are different kinds of exercises online. You can even stretch (伸展) for 15 minutes every day. Just choose whatever works for you. Exercise can improve our ability to sleep, reduce stress (压力) and make us healthy.
Before starting the term, think of your goals — not only those towards which you are working, but also those that you've already managed to achieve. Don't feel too anxious, notice your progress and always remember to take a rest. Keep in mind that everything takes time. Take a 10-minute rest between lessons, which can be a conversation with a friend, checking the news, or taking a walk. In short, do something for yourself.

In America, when the eighth graders leave the middle school, they are often worried about moving to the high school. It is a hard time for them, but it can be an exciting one as well. To make it easier, students need to get familiar with their school.
Even though they've done this already in the middle school, it's still important to find where their classrooms are. Most schools take students to the high school for a visit at the end of their eighth grade year. And, most schools also have a freshman (新生) speech for parents and students before the first year begins. Sometimes the main office will give away a map of the school. This can help students and parents to find different places in the school.
One way to know your high school more and make new friends is to join a club or play a sport.Schools often offer chances to join different clubs and sports. Fall activities begin in August before the first day of school. If you are not interested in sports, there are clubs for any interest, such as drama, dance, chess, photography, community service, etc. These clubs allow students from different grades. By joining an activity, students can find new friendships, not to mention improving their chances in future college applications (申请). The school office will have a list of activities offered at the school and information on how to join them.
What's more, to have a great start to a high school year, students can write down some of their worries, and ask for help from teachers and school workers.

In America， when the eighth graders leave the middle school， they are often worried about moving to the high school. It is a hard time for them， but it can be an exciting one as well. To make it easier， students need to get familiar with their school.
Even though they've done this already in the middle school， it's still important to find where their classrooms are. Most schools take students to the high school for a visit at the end of their eighth grade year. And， most schools also have a freshman (新生) speech for parents and students before the first year begins. Sometimes the main office will give away a map of the school. This can help students and parents to find different places in the school.
One way to know your high school more and make new friends is to join a club or play a sport.Schools often offer chances to join different clubs and sports. Fall activities begin in August before the first day of school. If you are not interested in sports， there are clubs for any interest， such as drama， dance， chess， photography， community service， etc. These clubs allow students from different grades. By joining an activity， students can find new friendships， not to mention improving their chances in future college applications (申请). The school office will have a list of activities offered at the school and information on how to join them.
What's more， to have a great start to a high school year， students can write down some of their worries， and ask for help from teachers and school workers.
