题文

请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个恰当的单词。How we look and how we appear to others probably worries us more when we are in our teens or early twenties than at any other time in our life. Few of us are content to accept ourlves as we are, and few are brave enough to ignore the trends of fashion.Most fashion magazines or TV advertiments try to persuade us that we should dress in a certain way or behave in a certain manner. If we do, they tell us, we will be able to meet new people with confidence and deal with every situation confidently and without embarrassment. Changing fashion, of cour, does not apply just to dress. A barber today does not cut a boy’s hair in the same way as he ud to, and girls do not make up in the same way as their mothers and grandmothers did. The advertirs show us the latest fashionable styles and we are constantly under pressure to follow the fashion in ca our friends think we are odd or dull.What caus fashions to change? Sometimes convenience or practical necessity or just the fancy of an influential person can establish a fashion. Take hats for example. In cold climates, early buildings were cold inside, so people wore hats indoors as well as outside. In recent times, the late President Kennedy caud a depression in the American hat industry by not wearing hats, and more American men followed his example.There is also a cyclical(周期性的) pattern in fashion. In the 1920s in Europe and America, short skirts became fashionable. After World War II, they dropped to ankle length. Then they got shorter and shorter until the miniskirt was in fashion. After a few more years, skirts became longer again.Today, society is much freer and easier than it ud to be. It is no longer necessary to dress like everyone el. Within reason, you can dress as you like or do your hair the way you like instead of the way you should becau it is the fashion. The popularity of jeans and the “untidy” look ems to be a reaction against the increasingly expensive fashion of the top fashion hous.At the same time, appearance is still important in certain circumstances and then we must choo our clothes carefully. It would be foolish to go to an interview for a job in a law firm wearing jeans and a sweater, and it would be discourteous(失礼的) to visit some distinguished scholar looking as if we were going to the beach or a night club. However, you need never feel depresd if you don’t look like the latest fashion photo. Look around you and you’ll e that no one el does either!

考点

据考高分专家说，试题“请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章.....”主要考查你对 [序数词 ]考点的理解。 序数词

序数词的概念：

表示顺序的数称为序数词。如：first, cond, third, fourth。

序数词的构成与用法：

1、序数词的构成：①一般来说，是由相应的基数词加词尾th构成。   例：four＋th→fourth   six＋th→sixth    ven＋th→venth   ten＋th→tenth②下面这些基数词在变为序数词时，有特殊的变化。例：one→first    two→cond    three→third    five→fifth    eight→eighth    nine→ninth    twelve→twelfth③十位整数序数词的构成方法是将基数词的词y变成i，然后再加eth。例：twenty→twentieth    thirty→thirtieth    forty→fortieth    ninety→ninetieth④两位或两位以上的基数词变成序数词时，仅将个位数变成序数词。例：twenty－one→twenty－first    thirty－five→thirty－fifth    a hundred and fifty－three→a hundred and fifty－third2、序数词的用法：①序数词在使用时，一般加上定冠词。例：the first book    the cond floor    the third day    the fourth week．②序数词在多数情况下都用作定语，有的也可以作表语、主语和宾语。例：The may1st is Labour Day. 五月一日是劳动节。    My room is on the cond floor. 我的房间在二楼。    The first is larger than the con.（主语）第一个比第二个大。    Read the book from the first.（宾语）从开头读这本书。    You'll be the sixth to write.（表语）你将是第六个写的。③序数词的前面可以加上不定冠词，用来表示“再一”，“又一”的意思。例：You may have a third try. 你可以第三次尝试。

序数词知识体系：

 

约数的表达方法：

用tens/dozens/scores/hundreds/thousands/millions of 表示“几十、几百、上千、成千上万”等。 如：The boy bought dozens of pencils.       Thousands of people died in the earthquake. 注意： (A)：dozen, score, hundred, thousand, million等表示确切数量时，不用复数。 如：five dozen (of) eggs   五打鸡蛋    hree hundred people  三百个人

分数词的构成和用法：

1）分数词构成法：分数词（FractionalNumerals）由基数词和序数词构成，基数词代表分子，序数词代表分母。除了分子为1的情况下，序数词都要用复数形式：如：1/4：one-fourth    5/9：five-ninths    2/3：two-thirds   17/5：three and two-fifths   7/12：ven-twelfths   379/8：forty-ven and three-eighths此外还有下面表示法：如：1/2：a(one) half    1/4：a(one) quarter    3/4：three-quarters    9/4：two and a quarter    3/2：one and half     31/4：ven and three quarters
