①At the beginning of every school year,I feared coming home with that first night of homework after a summer of fun.And I feared getting a teacher who had a long list of rules and a stare that could kill a cat.

But there was always one part of beginning a new school year that I enjoyed.I always liked going to the store to arm myself with new②school supplies even if I didn't need them.

Sure,my pencils,erasers and notebooks from the previous school year may have had some life left in them.The pencils had a few centimeters of lead鉛leftover剩余物.The notebooks had unused sheets of paper.But this didn't matter.Every year,Dad would take us to Wal-Mart and let us buy③the newest and coolest pencils,erasers and notebooks.Besides school supplies,many parents also took their kids to buy new clothes and schoolbags just in time for school.

I guess many of my classmates and I must have shown up to school on the first day with something that smells like a new car.We'd keep our new pencils，bags and notebooks on top of our desk a little bit longer,just to④make sure our classmates see them.

All of this buying⑤sounds a little environmentally unfriendly.But our parents seemed to think that buying these school supplies was worth it if doing so meant we'd work a little harder in school.Who knows?Perhaps we'd even start loving to do our math homework.

Ⅲ.難句分析

I guess many of my classmates and I must have shown up to school on the first day with something that smells like a new car.我想我和我的許多同學在學校出現(xiàn)的第一天一定是帶著全新學習用品感覺就像帶了輛新車。

must have shown up屬于 “情態(tài)動詞+have done”結(jié)構(gòu)，用于表示對過去發(fā)生動作的肯定推測，“...something that...”為定語從句，something不定代詞作先行詞時，用that引導定語從句，that在此句中作主語。

句式仿寫

政府肯定已經(jīng)采取了措施降低明年的房價，不是嗎？（must have done）

評鑒閱讀

讀寫任務(wù)

讀完全文，請認真思考，如何環(huán)保地處理那些未用過或未用完的學習用品？請根據(jù)文章概述現(xiàn)象，分析現(xiàn)象產(chǎn)生的原因，提出個人觀點以及應(yīng)對措施。

寫作點睛

本篇寫作屬于典型的problem-solution pattern（問題—解決模式）的篇章模式的寫作。此類作文通常會開門見山地向讀者提供一個情景或現(xiàn)象，然后提出某種麻煩或問題，緊接著會提出解決這一問題的方法和途徑，最后則描述采用相關(guān)方法后可能會出現(xiàn)的積極結(jié)果。

Para.1——現(xiàn)象描述

幾乎每學期開學，各類未用完的學習用品都會被堆積起來。而家長又會再次給孩子購買全新用品。閱讀時，注意話題信息句的積累。

原文信息提取：

1.I always liked going to the store to arm myself with new school supplies even if I didn't need them.

2.My pencils,erasers and notebooks from the previous school year may have had some life left in them.

3.The pencils had a few centimeters of lead leftover.

4.The notebooks had unused sheets of paper.But this didn't matter.

5.Every year,Dad would take us to Wal-Mart and let us buy the newest and coolest pencils,erasers and notebooks.

6.Besides school supplies,many parents also took their kids to buy new clothes and schoolbags just in time for school.

7.Leftover supplies from past years were always stuffed into the living-room desk.

整合重構(gòu)：

It's common to see that parents will take their children to buy the newest and coolest school supplies in the new term,with leftover supplies stuffed,some of which are even unused.

Para.2——原因分析

閱讀時除了積累、整理信息，還應(yīng)逐漸掌握信息的不同角度和層面。此篇文章可以從家長層面和學生層面分別整理。

1.Our parents seem to think that buying these school supplies is worth it if doing so means we'll work a little harder in school.

2.Perhaps we'll even start loving to do our math homework.

3.lose their appeal

4.All of this new stuff does make us excited about going to school.

整合重構(gòu)：

This phenomenon offers food for thought.Reasons accounting for it are as follows.For one thing,our parents seemed to think that arming their children with new school supplies was worth it if doing so meant they'd work a little harder in school.For another,students claim that new stuff does make them excited about going to school,unwilling to continue the unused materials with little appeal.What we can't ignore is that some students want to show off the newest and coolest supplies.

Para.3——個人觀點和應(yīng)對措施

閱讀不僅是提取和整合信息的過程，也是讀者與文本對話的過程。只要邏輯正確、表達準確，觀點可以不同。下面一段可以作為思維拓展訓練和寫作句型積累的素材。

From where I stand,it's an interesting topic but really environmentally unfriendly.It's high time for us to change our habits and live a low energy and low carbon lifestyle.First of all,a campaign can be launched to appeal to more students to save paper and recycle school supplies.Besides,new targets in the senior school can also inspire us to meet new challenges cheerfully.If we can do our part to reuse leftover supplies,we'll find a sense of satisfaction at the beginning of every school year.(黑體字為原文詞匯復現(xiàn))

閱讀微技能之文學賞析

文學賞析是人們在閱讀文學作品時，通過對藝術(shù)形象的感受、體驗和對藝術(shù)形式的欣賞，得到精神上的愉悅，獲得美感享受的一種審美活動。英語中的每一篇優(yōu)秀文章都有其語篇特色，常體現(xiàn)在內(nèi)容、語言、結(jié)構(gòu)、文化，以及修辭等方面，而這些也是欣賞英語文學作品的視角。

視角1：修辭

【背景簡介】

莉薩·格倫沃爾德(Lisa Grunwald，1959～)是當代美國女作家，著有小說 《你幸福的源泉》(Whatever Makes You Happy)、《新年前夕》(New Year's Eve)，以及《別丟下我》(The Irresistible Henry House)等。一個偶然的機會，她在康奈爾大學的網(wǎng)站上發(fā)現(xiàn)了一張“實習嬰兒”的照片，于是萌生了寫《別丟下我》的念頭?！秳e丟下我》入選2010年亞馬遜年度精選百大好書，獲評全美獨立書商協(xié)會年度選書、全美讀書俱樂部年度最佳推薦小說、《華盛頓郵報》(Washington Post)最佳小說、《時代》(Time)最佳小說等。片段

Martha Gaines ran the program with an iron fist and a hidden heart,living full-time in the practice house while the undergraduates came and went...With a new school year,a new group of mothers,and a new baby before her,Martha had never felt a deeper need to be in command.瑪莎·蓋恩斯是課程的負責人，她作風強硬，情感深藏。她全天住在實習房，看著一批批大學生來來去去……隨著新學年的開始，瑪莎將迎來一群“新媽媽”來帶眼前這個新來的嬰兒，她感到自己需要控制局面，而且這個需要從來沒有這么強烈過。

賞析點睛：an iron fist“鐵拳”，用來比喻彪悍的作風；a hidden heart“隱藏的心”，借喻瑪莎·蓋恩斯在情感上不動聲色；用felt a deeper need表現(xiàn)了瑪莎·蓋恩斯強烈地控制欲。

視角2：語言

【背景簡介】

英國著名記者、小說家、散文家和評論家，原名埃里克·阿瑟·布萊爾（Eric Arthur Blair），喬治·奧威爾一生短暫，但他以敏銳的洞察力和犀利的文筆審視和記錄著他所生活的那個時代，做出了許多超越時代的預(yù)言，被稱為“一代人的冷峻良知”。奧威爾一生發(fā)表了大量的評論和散文，其最負盛名的政治諷刺小說有《動物莊園》和《1984》。《射象記》這篇散文寫的便是奧威爾在緬甸服役期間的一次經(jīng)歷，文筆簡潔，思想深刻，讓我們從一個新的角度了解到帝國主義的丑陋和罪惡。片段：

They had seen the rifle and were all shouting excitedly that I was going to shoot the elephant.They had not shown much interest in the elephant when he was merely ravaging毀壞their homes,but it was different now that he was going to be shot.他們看到了來復槍，都興奮地喊著，說我要射殺大象。當大象只是在破壞他們家的時候，他們對大象沒有多大興趣，既然他要被槍斃了，那就是另一回事。

賞析點睛：本文情感與動作的融合也可以在英美文學作品中深度挖掘。閱讀文章，尤其是文體風格非常明顯的記敘文，體現(xiàn)主人公心理變化的，通常會有明線時間發(fā)展線和暗線心理變化線。閱讀，需抓住對心理情感變化的描述，則對于文章的理解將事半功倍。
