|写作技法指导|
(一)品参考范文
This sunflower painting is an oil painting by Vincent van Gogh, a great painter from the Netherlands. It was completed in Arles in 1889 and is among his most famous works.
It shows sunflowers in a vase, mostly in three shades of yellow, from bright yellows to brownish yellows. I can see the flowers are at different stages of life — some are just starting to bloom and some are starting to wither.
The painting leaves a great impression on me. I think it shows the meaning of life. Each of the flowers is trying its best to grow and show its beauty, no matter which stage of life it is at. The painting gives me a deeper understanding of life.

③第三段第一句中的leaves a great impression on强调了这幅画的重要性和影响力，后面的三句话是作者对其的具体阐释和理解。这种化抽象为具体的写作手法令人印象深刻。
(2)亮点句式
①第一段第一句中使用名词短语a great painter from the Netherlands作Vincent van Gogh的同位语。
②第三段第三句使用no matter which引导让步状语从句，用于转折或对比前后两个情况，为主句做铺垫，以使作者的观点更具说服力。

阅读七选五
For nearly 50 years，Zhao Yuming has been absorbed in his own world of clay figurines (泥塑)．At age 62, Zhao is the only remaining clay sculpture master craftsman in Laoting County，Hebei Province. He has been officially recognised as a master of intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产)． 1 This is more of a responsibility and a source of pressure.
2 In ancient times, Laoting clay figurines were mainly children's toys made by countryside artists.After the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949，there were several workshops in villages in Laoting County and the production reached a high level, but the prices were too low. 3 However, for a long period, many clay artists relied on making and selling clay figurines at those poor prices to make ends meet.
Nowadays, shopping malls are full of high-end toys, so the Laoting clay figurines have gradually fallen out of favor. 4 Zhao said that although his children have other jobs to feed their families, he still wants to pass on his skills to them and his grandchildren.“If we do not pass it on, we will do a disservice to our country.Passing on the skills, honoring ourselves and repaying the country is the best option.”
Facing a demand for economic development, many regions are increasingly attaching importance to the protection of valuable traditional cultural skills.People come to realise that developing our cultural relics promotes the development of local economies. 5
A．But for him, this is not only an honor.
B．Later, it became known as “literary clay figurines”．
C．Clay figurines were sold for just a few pennies each.
D．Laoting clay sculpture has a nearly 500-year history.
E．Laoting clay sculpture is an important part of Zhao's life.
F．However, some craftsmen have chosen to continue the tradition.
G．More importantly，it contributes to the goal of building “a beautiful China”．
语篇解读：本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了河北省乐亭县的非物质文化遗产——泥塑及传承人赵玉明以及乐亭泥塑从古到今的发展历史。
1．选A 由此处语境以及空后的“a responsibility and a source of pressure”可知，A项中的an honor与此呼应，其中的not only与空后的more of相对应，故选A项。
2．选D 设空处在第二段段首，为该段的主题句，接下来都在介绍泥塑的发展历史，故选D项。
3．选C 与设空处上文中的“the prices were too low”相对应的是C项“每个泥塑才卖几分钱”。
4．选F 设空处上一句提到“如今，商场里充满了高档玩具，泥塑逐渐失宠”，下文提到“赵玉明说虽然孩子们都有自己养家糊口的工作，但是他仍然希望把这项技艺传给他们和孙辈们”，所以F项“然而，一些工匠选择继续延续这一传统”符合语境。
5．选G 设空处上文阐述发展文化遗产的意义，所以接下来会继续说明其具有十分重大的意义。G项“更重要的是，它有助于实现建设‘美丽中国’的目标”符合语境。UNIT 4 课时检测(六) Writing

语篇解读：本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了河北省乐亭县的非物质文化遗产——泥塑及传承人赵玉明以及乐亭泥塑从古到今的发展历史。
1．选A 由此处语境以及空后的“a responsibility and a source of pressure”可知，A项中的an honor与此呼应，其中的not only与空后的more of相对应，故选A项。
2．选D 设空处在第二段段首，为该段的主题句，接下来都在介绍泥塑的发展历史，故选D项。
3．选C 与设空处上文中的“the prices were too low”相对应的是C项“每个泥塑才卖几分钱”。
4．选F 设空处上一句提到“如今，商场里充满了高档玩具，泥塑逐渐失宠”，下文提到“赵玉明说虽然孩子们都有自己养家糊口的工作，但是他仍然希望把这项技艺传给他们和孙辈们”，所以F项“然而，一些工匠选择继续延续这一传统”符合语境。
5．选G 设空处上文阐述发展文化遗产的意义，所以接下来会继续说明其具有十分重大的意义。G项“更重要的是，它有助于实现建设‘美丽中国’的目标”符合语境。
