On the third Sunday in June, fathers all across or otherwise made to feel special.However, the idea for creating a day

20、 for children to honor their fathers began in Spokane, Washington. A woman by the name of Sonora Smart Dodd thought of the idea for Fathers Day while listening to a Mothers Day sermon in 1909. Having been raised by her father, Henry Jackson Smart, after her mother died, Sonora wanted her father to k

21、now how special he was to her. It was her father that made all the parental sacrifices and was, in the eyes of his daughter, a selfless and loving man. Sonoras father was born in June, so she chose to hold the first Fathers Day celebration in Spokane, Washington on the 19th of June, 1910.In 1924 Pre

22、sident Calvin Coolidge declared the third Sunday in June as Fathers Day. Roses are the Fathers Day flowers, red to be worn for a living father and white if the father has died.When children cant visit their fathers or take them out to dinner, they send a greeting card. Traditionally, fathers prefer

27、id Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. “I was a clothes addict,” he jokes. “I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled.” Today David wears casual clothes-khaki pants and sports shirt-to the office. He hardly ever wears a necktie. “Im working

28、 harder than ever,” David says, “and I need to feel comfortable.” More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work in the United States. The change from formal to casual office wear has been gradual. In the early 1990s, many companies allowed their employees t

29、o wear casual clothes on Friday(but only on Friday). This became known as “dress-down Friday” of “casual Friday”. “What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for employees has really become an everyday thing.” said business consultant Maisly Jones.Why have so many companies started allowing

30、 their employees to wear casual clothes? One reason is that its easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code. “A lot of young people dont want to dress up for work,” says the owner of a software company, “so its hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code

31、.” Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that they believe that casual dress improves employee morale. Only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress

32、 has a negative impact on productivity. Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money. “Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day,” one person said. “For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes.” 41.

37、saving employees money B. making employees more attractiveC. improving employees motivation D. making employees happierCSince we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human conditions is our possibility to give an

38、d receive support from one another under stressful(有压力的) conditions. Social support makes up of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to deal with major life changes and daily problems. People with strong

39、social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over types of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, show that the presence of social support helps people defend themselves against illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.Socia

40、l support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others in spite of our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They

41、 help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive. Taking part in free-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting(转移注意力) us from our worries and troubles. Finally,

42、other people may give us instrumental support money aid, material resources, and needed services that reduces stress by helping us resolve and deal with our problems.46.

54、事，顾名思义，是指过去的事情，所以要用一般过去时；2、故事以人物为中心，要注意人称的使用，一般用第一和第三人称。【范文赏读】Once upon a time, there was a man who went out with a sword. One day, He wanted to cross a river in a boat. His sword fell into the water when he crossed the river. He hurriedly took out a small knife and made a mark on the side of the bo

55、at. “After the boat gets to the bank,” he said, “Ill get down from here to look for my sword.”【亮点点击】 本故事虽短，但考查的短语非常多：1. once upon a time 很久以前，其实有多种表达：long long ago ; a long time ago; once 等等。2. cross a river 过河 3. in a boat=by boat坐船 4. fall into 掉进5. take out 拿出 6. make a mark on 在上面作一个记号7. on the

56、side of 在.边上 8. get to 到达reach; arrive at 9. get down 下去 10. look for 寻找，其实也有多种表达：search for; be in search of; be in ones search for ;seek ;cast about for 等等。另外，使用复合句和直接引语也是文章又一特色，使文章可以拿高分。 文章使用了一句定语从句（who）, 两句状语从句，（when.; After）一句直接引语和不定式结构(to look for),使文章的结构更加严密，过渡更加自然。还有，高考提倡使用高级词汇 ，文章里使用了副词hurr

57、iedly，代替了in a hurry.2. 【思路导航】 从题目的写作内容可知，本文体裁是一篇议论文。议论文在高考写作中并不是主要形式，但了解议论文的写作对其他体裁的写作是有好处的。一般来说，议论文要求考生就某方面的问题通过摆事实、讲道理的方式来发表自己的看法。在写的过程中考生要注意：论点要明确，论据要可靠充分，论据合理严密。本题的题目内容已经很清楚，列出要点不难，但要用5个句子来表达，就要花点功夫了，注意简单句和复合句的灵活运用和替换是解决这类文章的考查能力。本文可以抓住以下几个要点：1、我赞成建化工厂的建议； 2、老板答应减少污染； 3、我们村将得到一笔钱； 4、这笔钱可以盖一座教学楼；

58、 5、为附近几百人提供工作。 【范文赏读】 I agree to the suggestion that a chemical works be set up near our village. The boss of the works has promised to do his best to reduce air and water pollution. Our village will get a large sum of money by the building of the works. Then we will have enough money to set up a te

59、aching building. Besides, the chemical works will offer jobs for hundreds of people living nearby. 【亮点点击】 一、 文章考查了以下这些短语,部分短语还可以灵活运用： 1 agree to 2 a chemical worksa chemical factory 3 set up=build 4 promise to do 5do ones best to do sth =try ones best to do sth =make every effort to do sth 6 reducep

60、ollution 7 a large sum of money=a great deal of 8 offer jobs for sb.=give jobs to sb.(offer显得更正统，书面化) 二、文章提出使用个别的复合句或非谓语结构： 1同位语从句含虚拟语气：I agree to the suggestion that that a chemical works (should)be set up near our village. 2. 使用了多个不定式结构：promised to do; do his best to reduce; have enough money to s
