The main purpo of English essay writing is to introduce you to the conventions of academic writing and critical thinking.
小鱼图片大全While academic writing means different things to different people, there are some 【C1】______elements. We write to communicate to others, whether they are colleagues, professionals in their fields or friends. We write to【C2】______others that our position has power. We write to discover new things about our world as well as ourlves. For that matter, the process of writing is a way of coming to know. Writing can become a【C3】______for lf-reflection, lf-expression, **munication, a means of coming to know for both the writer and the reader.
Learning to write requires writing. Writing is a craft, and as a craft, writing can be learned and【C4】______. Finally, writing takes practice, and as a writer, you will have opportunities to write both in the classroom as well as【C5】______. With that said, the goal I have for this class is to give you, as students, enough practice writing so that you will become more【C6】______writers by the end of this cour than you were at the start.
It is acknowledged that writing, reading, and learning are【C7】______intertwined. Writing is bad on experience—experience with a text or personal experience —and that reading is a means to【C8】______experiences, especially when actively engaged by reading in a reasonable way. Much of the readings, lectures, and discussions may challenge **monly accepted assumptions and beliefs. You will be required to critically rethink and【C9】______popular concepts and ideas. One of the main goals for writing will be to understand how language informs and shapes our culture and society as well as our【C10】______lives and practices.

电脑一体机When Jules Verne wrote Journey to the Center of the Earth in 1864, there were many【C1】______theories about the nature of the Earth's interior. Some geologists thought that it contained a **presd ball of glowing gas, while others suspected that it【C2】______of parate shells, each made of a different material. Most of our knowledge of the Earth's **es not from mines or boreholes, but from the study of ismic waves (震波) — powerful puls of energy【C3】______by earthquakes.
The way that ismic waves travel shows that the Earth's interior is far from uniform. The
【C4】______and the abed are formed by the crust (地壳) — a thin sphere of relatively light, solid rock. Beneath the crust lies the mantle, a very different layer that extends approximately halfway to the Earth's center. There the rock is the subject of a battle between increasing heat and【C5】______pressure.
In its high levels, the mantle is relatively cool; at greater depths, high temperatures make the rock behave more like a liquid than a solid. Deeper still, the pressure is even more【C6】______, preventing the rock from melting in spite of a higher temperature.
Beyond a depth of around 2,900 kilometers, a great change takes place and the mantle gives【C7】______to the core. Some ismic waves cannot pass through the core and others are bent by it. From this and other evidence, geologists assume that the outer core is【C8】______liquid, with a solid center.
The conditions in the Earth's core make it a far more【C9】______world than space. Its solid iron heart is subjected to unimaginable pressure and has a temperature of about 9,000 ° F. Although scientists can【C10】______about its nature, neither humans nor machines will ever be able to visit it.

It is commonly believed that in the United States school is where people get an education. Nevertheless, it has been said that today children interrupt their education to go to school. The【C1】______between schooling and education implied by this remark is important.
Education is much more open-ended and all-inclusive than schooling. Education has no【C2】______. It can take place anywhere, whether in the shower or on the job, whether in a kitchen or on a tractor. It includes both the【C3】______learning that takes place in
school and the whole univer of informal leaning. The agents of education can【C4】______from a revered grandparent to the people debating politics on the radio, from a child to a distinguished scientist. Whereas schooling has a certain predictability, education quite often produces surpris. A(n)【C5】______ conversation with a stranger may lead a person to discover how little is known of other religions. People are【C6】______in education from infancy on. Education, then, is a very broad, inclusive term. It is a lifelong process, a process that starts long before the start of school and one that should be an integral part of one's entire life.
Schooling, on the other hand, is a specific,【C7】______process, who general pattern varies little from one tting to the next. Throughout a country, children arrive at school at【C8】______the same time, take assigned ats, u similar textbooks, take exams, and so on. The slices of reality that are to be learned, whether they are the alphabet or an understanding of the workings of governments, have usually been limited by the boundaries of the【C9】______being taught.
For example, high-school students know that they are not likely to【C10】______ out in t
heir class the truth about political problems in **munities or what the newest filmmakers are experimenting with.
A. formalized B. accurately C. figure D. stretch
E. engaged F. similarity G. subject H. automatic
I. chance J. range K. distinction L. divisional
