Currently available technologies, the most important of which are computers and the Internet, apparently provide a learning environment in which problem-solving an

110、ment is used.However, change is on the horizon. I think student-centred learning will become the norm and transform education. Computers will pave the way for far more independent learning.

113、ut it hasnt changed the classroom teaching because what teachers teach is more important. But computers make it possible for those with no access to school to study on their own.【解析】【分析】这是一篇概要写作。【详解】写作步骤1)细读原文。首先要仔细阅读短文,掌握文章主旨。文章说明了尽管专家说现代技术对课堂学习有显著的影响,作者却持有不同的观点。学校投入了大量资金将计算机应用到课堂教学中,但这并没有改变课堂教学,因为
114、老师教什么更重要。但是计算机使那些不能上学的人能够自学。2)弄清结构,归纳段意。概要写作是写全文概要,不是写某一部分的概要,或者就某些问题写出要点。因此一定要弄清文章结构,归纳文章各段大意。3)列出原文要点。分析原文的内容和结构,将内容分项扼要表述并注意在结构上的顺序。在此基础上选出与文章主题密切相关的部分。4)在写作时要特别注意下面几点:(1)概要应包括原文中的主要事实,略去不必要的细节。(2)安排好篇幅的比例,概要应同原文保持协调,即用较多的文字写重要内容,用较少的文字写次要内容。(3)注意要点之间的衔接,要用适当的关联词语贯通全文,切忌只简单地写出一些互不相干的句子,但也不要每两句之间都
115、加关联词语,以免显得生硬。(4)不排斥用原文的某些词句,但不要照搬原文的句子,如果不能完全用自己的话语表达,至少对原文句子做一些同义词替换,如果结构上也能有一些转换会更好。(5)计算词数,看是否符合规定的词数要求。V.

Only through effective supervision and by improving citizens awareness can shared bicycles really serve the public and save resources.【解析】【52题详解】考查before引导的时间状语从句。分析句子可知,由before引导的时间状语从句,主句用一般将来时,从句用一般现在时。从句
118、的主语为 The new technology,谓语为apply to, 宾语为industrial production,主语和谓语动词之间是被动关系,需要用被动语态。再根据其它汉语提示。故翻译为:It wont be long before the new technology is applied to industrial production。【53题详解】考查动词搭配和定语从句。分析句子可知,句子发生在现在,需要用一般现在时。句子的主语为you,谓语为expect,expect to do sth表示“期望做某事”,宾语为person,定语为never keeps his word
119、 in the process of cooperation,此处定语是一句话,需要用定语从句,先行词是person,先行词是人,在从句中做主语,所以用关系代词who连接,再根据其它汉语提示。故翻译为:How can you expect to rely on a person who never keeps his word in the process of cooperation?【54题详解】考查动词短语和时态。分析句子可知,句子发生在过去,需要用一般过去时,从句表示在过去的时间来看将来将要的事情,需要用过去将来时。从句的主语为 some old shops,谓语为pull down,
120、主语和谓语动词之间是被动关系,需要用被动语态。本句涉及where引导的非限制性定语从句,再根据其它汉语提示。故翻译为:Word came that some old shops located in the city center would be pulled down, where an office building was to be built.【55题详解】考查部分倒装句。分析句子可知,句子陈述现在的事实,需要用一般现在时。主语是shared bicycles,谓语动词是serve and save,宾语是the public和resources。在句首的only如果后面跟了副词、
121、介词短语或从句等状语,则主句用倒装结构,这里only后面跟着介词through,主句用倒装结构,把shared bicycles和can调换位置,再根据其它汉语提示。故翻译为:Only through effective supervision and by improving citizens awareness can shared bicycles really serve the public and save resources.VI.
