    Neighborhoods aren't like they used to be. Sometimes neighbors are complete strangers, even after years
    of living yards away. Believe it or not, neighborhoods were once tight-knit communities full of supportive,
    friendly and familiar faces. Can they be that way again? You don't have to be an experienced social director
    to build bonds in your neighborhood. If you're not happy with the social dynamic in your community, start
    making a change today.
    The term "social life" has taken on new meaning, especially for our kids. What was once defined as actual
    interaction (e.g. face-to-face) now often refers to the number of Facebook friends or Twitter followers we
    can collect. Our social lives have essentially turned inside out, with the focus now being on cyber-space rather
    than on reality. "Children play indoors instead of out; most don't even take walks through their streets
    anymore," says Jaymes Ian Woode, a relationship counselor. "Moat have grown accustomed to living without
    meaningful friendships."
    Change has to start somewhere, and most neighborhoods don't have an official party planner. “To create
    change in neighborhoods, it often only takes one person who is willing to reach out," says Woode. "One
    person can knock on a neighbor's door and find those who also want to open up. As most salespeople know,
    after enough knocks, you are bound to make a sale." Yes, it takes courage and you'll probably have to
    overcome some skepticism (怀疑) towards your friendly attitude, but it will be worth it when you actually learn
    the names of the people who live around you.
    Susanne Alexander, a relationship coach, recounts some of the ways she has successfully connected with
    her neighbors in recent years. "I feel safer and less isolated knowing that I have at least some connection to the
    people who live near me," she says. Perhaps her experience will inspire you:
    * Meet neighbors at civic (市民的) events or start an in-home spiritual group.
    * Connect over yard advice or repairs that need cooperation.
    * Exchange numbers with elderly neighbors in case of an emergency.
    * Bring the Sunday comics over to cheer up a neighbor going through a hard time.

    A. neighborhoods today are better than before.
    B. neighborhoods today are as good as before.
    C. neighborhoods today are not better than before.
    D. neighborhoods today will be worse.
    2. According to the second paragraph, what is the new meaning of "social life"?
    A. People focus on cyber-space rather than on reality.
    B. People like Facebook friends or Twitter followers.
    C. People seldom take exercise or have outdoors.
    D. People accustom themselves to living with meaningful friendships.
    3. What is the author's attitude of the neighborhoods today?
    A. Indifferent.
    B. Supportive.

  • 日常生活类阅读

日常生活类阅读的概念:

日常生活这一话题主要涉及人们衣食住行等方面的活动。这一话题的选材主要针对人们日常的工作,生活以及学习情况。做这一类题时,最主要的是要把握好人物的活动内容,时间和地点。


日常生活类阅读题答题技巧:

【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小,追根溯源,探索各项风俗的历史渊源,内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主,如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松,试题做起来比较顺手,但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神,就会丢分。   
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率,建议同学们做好以下几点:   
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现,越是容易的试题,同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢?因为在这种情况下,同学们极易产生麻痹思想,认为题目好做,就不引起高度重视,于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点,设计陷阱题。所以,无论试题难易与否,我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易,不欣喜;试题难,不悲观。   
2、根据前面讲到的方法,认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。   
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义,确定多义词或短语在文中的意思,确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象,或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子,切不可望文生义。   
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提,以具体事实为依据进行推理,做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接,只要弄清事实,即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
