STUDYING ABROAD:
IS IT A GOOD OR A BAD IDEA?
(节选自人教版教材选择性必修第二册UNIT 2)
Dear Editor,
❶Is studying abroad a good idea or not? There are certainly disadvantages, but in my opinion, the advantages are much greater.❷As I always tell my son, there are no great difficulties for a person who is brave, optimistic, and willing to work hard!(开门见山,亮明观点)
The first advantage of studying abroad is personal growth.The education you gain and the experiences you have will change you for the better.For example, you will certainly become more independent because you will have to deal with all kinds of difficulties by yourself.Studying abroad also helps you to gain a global perspective and improve your general competence.(出国留学的又一个好处:有利于个人成长)
Another advantage is the increased chance for cultural exchange.Chinese students can be seen as cultural envoys promoting friendship between nations.International students in China also bring their colourful cultures here.Cooperating with people from diverse cultural backgrounds helps us view the world from different angles and thus gives us more insight into our own culture.(出国留学的另一个好处:获得更多文化交流的机会)
Finally, studying abroad provides a great opportunity to contribute to the development of our motherland.China's global outlook, with projects such as the Belt and Road Initiative, has helped us make connections across the world.Therefore, China needs more talented young people with a global perspective who are highly competent with languages, have leadership and organisational skills, and have strong cultural awareness.(使用副词therefore,使得上下文逻辑清晰,行文流畅) Students who study abroad will develop such skills and abilities, and these in turn will provide them with better career opportunities.(出国留学的再一个好处:提供了一个为祖国的发展做出贡献的好机会)
❸All in all, studying abroad helps to build character and increase people's understanding of cultural diversity while strengthening China and building a shared future for all.I think this life-changing experience is certainly worthwhile, and I hope my child will study abroad in the future.(总结并再次表明个人观点:出国留学好处多多,这一改变人生的经历是值得的)
Sincerely yours,
Zhang Yi (father of one boy)

一、作文提升练习
下面这篇短文讨论了“现在许多中学生庆祝外来节日”的现象。请根据上面所学,对习作进行润色、升级。
Nowadays, many middle school students like celebrating Western festivals.
❶Firstly,when we celebrate Western festivals,it gives us a great look into Western culture. At the same time, some Western festivals are quite interesting.________, there are also some weaknesses of celebrating Western festivals.For example, some students do it simply to follow the crowd and they know nothing about the history of Western festivals.
❷As far as I am concerned, our traditional festivals are the treasure of the nation. ❸We should attach more importance to them.
(一)将文中加蓝词汇升级
1.look→insight
2.weaknesses→disadvantages
(二)根据提示将文中句子升级
1.用动名词短语作主语升级句❶

(三)在文中设空处加上衔接词
However
二、续写语段思维活
阅读下面短文,根据所给提示进行续写。词数80左右。
I believe that all humans are similar but we are all blind to this idea due to cultures, religions, and appearances that all form wrong ideas separating us as humans.
I recently had the privilege to travel to Africa.This trip allowed me to see a lot more of the world than most students of my age.
On the first day I bonded with the school children.A little girl with smooth skin, shaved head, and a torn blue and green sweater walked over and hesitantly grasped my wrist.She inspected my hands and rubbed my fingernails.She let my hands drop and she looked at her own with the same attentiveness.Her eyes rose as she began to evaluate my face.Then she looked into my eyes; I looked back into hers.Immediately the school bell rang, she released a smile and ran towards her classroom.
I watched this adolescent girl as she ran carefree towards her teachers and classmates just as I did when I was in elementary school.For some reason I felt as if I had met this girl before, but I knew this was impossible.After she had inspected me, and compared herself to me ,I could not stop thinking about our interaction.I wondered why this is so emotional for me, and then I realized, to our surprise we were amazingly similar.The way this child ran, interacted with her classmates, and was so curious about me, a stranger, made me recall the experience of my own childhood.
(根据上文内容,结合所给开头语,对文章进行续写,重点描述“我”的感悟)
This was an eye-opening experience that changed the way I see people nowadays.
参考范文:
This was an eye-opening experience that changed the way I see people nowadays.What was really fascinating to me was the similarity of the people I met, and all their personalities that were like every single other person I came in contact with during my trip.I am constantly curious about how similar we all are, and I have a sense that we are all incredibly the same, but we do not see this due to cultures and religions as well as appearances that blind us from understanding my belief.
课时作业(一) 语篇阅读训练——保准度
Ⅰ.阅读理解
Amber has a degree in business management and economics.She put her skills to good use when she spent eleven months in Cambodia(柬埔寨) through World Hope International as a volunteer working with a local microfinance (小额信贷) company to help the poor get financial services.
Amber's first few weeks in Cambodia was busy and difficult as she tried to learn the language, understand the culture and get used to her new surroundings.Her volunteer service involved working with a local microfinance company.In addition to writing plans, preparing international marketing materials and building donor (捐赠人) relations, Amber met with company clients.During these visits she learned how the small loans they received transformed their lives.She learned firsthand the benefits of microfinance, which by providing farmers and smallbusiness owners with affordable working capital (such as money to buy a sewing machine) helped them to earn their way out of poverty (贫穷).
“It never stopped amazing me when a client would show me a new home that was built because of a loan he received or the way a client's business had improved and thus allowed his children to be sent to school,” Amber said.
Amber recalled that one client called Paul walked her all around his house, pointing to what he had done with each of eight loans he'd received.He explained how every loan had improved his family's quality of life.Amber said he was one of the hardestworking men she had ever met.He had suffered greatly in the Cambodian Civil War and became disabled, but not once did he let it kill his dreams of realizing a better life for his family.His latest purchase, a sound system that he rented out for weddings and other parties doubled his income!
Amber said, “Living and working in Cambodia helped me see the world in new ways and made me aware of the hardship and suffering that many people around the world face every day.Those eleven months were some of the most meaningful months of my life.”

Ⅱ.阅读七选五
When I decided to leave my home country to pursue a degree in Canada, I hadn't expected that communication would be an issue. __5__ I took English lessons in my teens and scored well on English tests.
But soon after my arrival in Canada, I realized how wrong I was. In research discussions, surrounded by native English speakers, I had to be careful. I needed to consciously follow each conversation and translate it to my native language. __6__ Finally, I tried to find the right English words to communicate that response. Constantly thinking about what I would say next, I had a hard time remaining focused in conversations.
But when I again failed to say exactly what I meant in a meeting a few months later, a simple idea occurred to me. __7__ Communicating with my colleagues by email, I had more time to think and comfortably express my thoughts. Over time, this practice helped improve my English significantly.
__8__ I decided to remind them that English is not my first language. I asked them to speak more slowly to help me follow the discussions. It was a little awkward to draw attention to what might be seen as a weakness. And at first, the other members of the research team seemed slightly surprised. But the dynamics quickly improved. They seemed to become more aware of how they were speaking, and I felt more comfortable joining in the conversation. __9__

Ⅳ.读后续写
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I had never been more anxious in my life.I had just spent the last three endless hours trying to get to the airport so that I could travel home.Now, as I watched the bus driver set my luggage on the airport sidewalk, I realized that my anxiety had only just begun.
This was my first visit alone to the international terminal of the airport, and nothing was familiar.I could not make sense of any of the signs. Where was the checkin counter? Where should I take my luggage? I had no idea where to go, feeling as if I were deaf and blind and stupid. I began to panic. What time was it? Where was my plane? I had to find help because I could not be late!
I tried to ask a passing businessman for help,but my words all came out wrong.He just frowned and walked away.What had happened? I had been in this country for a whole semester, and I could not even remember how to ask for directions.This was awful! Another bus arrived at the terminal, and the passengers came out carrying all sorts of luggage.Here was my chance! I could follow them to the right place, and I would not have to say a word.
I dragged my enormous suitcase behind me and followed the group.We finally reached the elevators.Oh, no! They all fit in it,but there was not enough room for me.I watched in despair as the elevator doors closed.I was abandoned again! I had no idea what to do next.I got on the elevator when it returned and stared at all the buttons.Which one could it be? I pressed button 3,because I thought I saw those passengers pressed 3, though it was no more than a quick glance.The elevator slowly climbed up to the third floor and came to a stop.A high,unpleasant noise announced the opening of the doors,and I looked around shyly.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Paragraph 1:
Tears formed in my eyes as I saw the empty hall and realized that I would miss my plane.
Paragraph 2:
When I turned to thank him for all his help,he was gone.
参考范文:
Paragraph 1:
Tears formed in my eyes as I saw the empty hall and realized that I would miss my plane.Just then an elderly airport employee walked towards me from the corner.He saw that I was lost and asked if he could help in any way.He gave me his handkerchief to dry my tears as I related my predicament.He smiled kindly,and patted my shoulder to ease my anxiety,before leading me down a long hallway.We walked up some stairs,turned a corner,and at last,there was the checkin counter! He led me past all the lines of people and pushed my luggage to the inspection counter.
Paragraph 2:
When I turned to thank him for all his help,he was gone.I never got an opportunity to know that kind man's name,but I would always remember his unexpected kindness.He helped me when I needed it most.Without his timely help, I would have certainly missed my plane.I can only hope that one day I will be able to do the same for another traveller who is suffering through a terrible journey.

STUDYING ABROAD:
IS IT A GOOD OR A BAD IDEA?
(节选自人教版教材选择性必修第二册UNIT 2)
Dear Editor,
❶Is studying abroad a good idea or not? There are certainly disadvantages, but in my opinion, the advantages are much greater.❷As I always tell my son, there are no great difficulties for a person who is brave, optimistic, and willing to work hard!(开门见山,亮明观点)
The first advantage of studying abroad is personal growth.The education you gain and the experiences you have will change you for the better.For example, you will certainly become more independent because you will have to deal with all kinds of difficulties by yourself.Studying abroad also helps you to gain a global perspective and improve your general competence.(出国留学的又一个好处:有利于个人成长)
Another advantage is the increased chance for cultural exchange.Chinese students can be seen as cultural envoys promoting friendship between nations.International students in China also bring their colourful cultures here.Cooperating with people from diverse cultural backgrounds helps us view the world from different angles and thus gives us more insight into our own culture.(出国留学的另一个好处:获得更多文化交流的机会)
Finally, studying abroad provides a great opportunity to contribute to the development of our motherland.China's global outlook, with projects such as the Belt and Road Initiative, has helped us make connections across the world.Therefore, China needs more talented young people with a global perspective who are highly competent with languages, have leadership and organisational skills, and have strong cultural awareness.(使用副词therefore,使得上下文逻辑清晰,行文流畅) Students who study abroad will develop such skills and abilities, and these in turn will provide them with better career opportunities.(出国留学的再一个好处:提供了一个为祖国的发展做出贡献的好机会)
❸All in all, studying abroad helps to build character and increase people's understanding of cultural diversity while strengthening China and building a shared future for all.I think this life-changing experience is certainly worthwhile, and I hope my child will study abroad in the future.(总结并再次表明个人观点:出国留学好处多多,这一改变人生的经历是值得的)
Sincerely yours,
Zhang Yi (father of one boy)
由教材学写法

阅读下面短文,根据所给提示进行续写。词数80左右。
I believe that all humans are similar but we are all blind to this idea due to cultures, religions, and appearances that all form wrong ideas separating us as humans.
I recently had the privilege to travel to Africa.This trip allowed me to see a lot more of the world than most students of my age.
On the first day I bonded with the school children.A little girl with smooth skin, shaved head, and a torn blue and green sweater walked over and hesitantly grasped my wrist.She inspected my hands and rubbed my fingernails.She let my hands drop and she looked at her own with the same attentiveness.Her eyes rose as she began to evaluate my face.Then she looked into my eyes; I looked back into hers.Immediately the school bell rang, she released a smile and ran towards her classroom.
I watched this adolescent girl as she ran carefree towards her teachers and classmates just as I did when I was in elementary school.For some reason I felt as if I had met this girl before, but I knew this was impossible.After she had inspected me, and compared herself to me ,I could not stop thinking about our interaction.I wondered why this is so emotional for me, and then I realized, to our surprise we were amazingly similar.The way this child ran, interacted with her classmates, and was so curious about me, a stranger, made me recall the experience of my own childhood.
(根据上文内容,结合所给开头语,对文章进行续写,重点描述“我”的感悟)
This was an eye-opening experience that changed the way I see people nowadays.
参考范文:
This was an eye-opening experience that changed the way I see people nowadays.What was really fascinating to me was the similarity of the people I met, and all their personalities that were like every single other person I came in contact with during my trip.I am constantly curious about how similar we all are, and I have a sense that we are all incredibly the same, but we do not see this due to cultures and religions as well as appearances that blind us from understanding my belief.
课时作业(一) 语篇阅读训练——保准度
Ⅰ.阅读理解
Amber has a degree in business management and economics.She put her skills to good use when she spent eleven months in Cambodia(柬埔寨) through World Hope International as a volunteer working with a local microfinance (小额信贷) company to help the poor get financial services.
Amber's first few weeks in Cambodia was busy and difficult as she tried to learn the language, understand the culture and get used to her new surroundings.Her volunteer service involved working with a local microfinance company.In addition to writing plans, preparing international marketing materials and building donor (捐赠人) relations, Amber met with company clients.During these visits she learned how the small loans they received transformed their lives.She learned firsthand the benefits of microfinance, which by providing farmers and smallbusiness owners with affordable working capital (such as money to buy a sewing machine) helped them to earn their way out of poverty (贫穷).
“It never stopped amazing me when a client would show me a new home that was built because of a loan he received or the way a client's business had improved and thus allowed his children to be sent to school,” Amber said.
Amber recalled that one client called Paul walked her all around his house, pointing to what he had done with each of eight loans he'd received.He explained how every loan had improved his family's quality of life.Amber said he was one of the hardestworking men she had ever met.He had suffered greatly in the Cambodian Civil War and became disabled, but not once did he let it kill his dreams of realizing a better life for his family.His latest purchase, a sound system that he rented out for weddings and other parties doubled his income!
Amber said, “Living and working in Cambodia helped me see the world in new ways and made me aware of the hardship and suffering that many people around the world face every day.Those eleven months were some of the most meaningful months of my life.”

I had never been more anxious in my life.I had just spent the last three endless hours trying to get to the airport so that I could travel home.Now, as I watched the bus driver set my luggage on the airport sidewalk, I realized that my anxiety had only just begun.
This was my first visit alone to the international terminal of the airport, and nothing was familiar.I could not make sense of any of the signs. Where was the checkin counter? Where should I take my luggage? I had no idea where to go, feeling as if I were deaf and blind and stupid. I began to panic. What time was it? Where was my plane? I had to find help because I could not be late!
I tried to ask a passing businessman for help,but my words all came out wrong.He just frowned and walked away.What had happened? I had been in this country for a whole semester, and I could not even remember how to ask for directions.This was awful! Another bus arrived at the terminal, and the passengers came out carrying all sorts of luggage.Here was my chance! I could follow them to the right place, and I would not have to say a word.
I dragged my enormous suitcase behind me and followed the group.We finally reached the elevators.Oh, no! They all fit in it,but there was not enough room for me.I watched in despair as the elevator doors closed.I was abandoned again! I had no idea what to do next.I got on the elevator when it returned and stared at all the buttons.Which one could it be? I pressed button 3,because I thought I saw those passengers pressed 3, though it was no more than a quick glance.The elevator slowly climbed up to the third floor and came to a stop.A high,unpleasant noise announced the opening of the doors,and I looked around shyly.

Tears formed in my eyes as I saw the empty hall and realized that I would miss my plane.

Paragraph 1:
Tears formed in my eyes as I saw the empty hall and realized that I would miss my plane.Just then an elderly airport employee walked towards me from the corner.He saw that I was lost and asked if he could help in any way.He gave me his handkerchief to dry my tears as I related my predicament.He smiled kindly,and patted my shoulder to ease my anxiety,before leading me down a long hallway.We walked up some stairs,turned a corner,and at last,there was the checkin counter! He led me past all the lines of people and pushed my luggage to the inspection counter.
Paragraph 2:
When I turned to thank him for all his help,he was gone.I never got an opportunity to know that kind man's name,but I would always remember his unexpected kindness.He helped me when I needed it most.Without his timely help, I would have certainly missed my plane.I can only hope that one day I will be able to do the same for another traveller who is suffering through a terrible journey.
