概要写作

1．Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the

passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.

Perhaps you’ve heard the old saying “curiosity killed the cat.” It’s a phrase that’s often used

to warn people, especially children, not to ask too many questions. Yet it’s widely agreed that

curiosity actually makes learning more effective. In fact, research has shown that curiosity is just

as important as intelligence in determining how well students do in school.

Curiosity can also lead us to make unexpected discoveriesand open up new possibilities. In

science, basic curiosity-driven research can have unexpected important benefits. For example,

one day in 1831, Michael Faraday was playing around with a coil (线圈) and a magnet (磁铁)

when he suddenly saw how he could produce an electrical current. The discovery changed the

world.

However, curiosity is currently under the biggest threat, coming from technology. On one

level, this is because technology has become so advanced that many of us are unable to think too

deeply about how exactly things work anymore.

In addition to this, there’s the fact that we all now connect so deeply with technology,

particularly with our phones. The more we stare at our screens, the less we talk to other people

directly. All too often we accept the images of people that social media provides up with. Then

we feel we know enough about a person not to need to engage further with them.

The final—and perhaps most worrying—way in which technology stops us from asking more

has to do with algorithms, the processes followed by computers. As we increasingly get our news

via social media, algorithms find out what we like and push more of the same back to us. That

means we end up inside our own little bubbles, no longer coming across new ideas. Perhaps the

real key to developing curiosity in the 21st century, then, is to rely less on the tech tools of our

age.

Tai Chi Can Reduce Falls in Old People

Old people who took part in a structured programme of Tai Chi found that their balance and

physical strength improved, reducing the risk of falls, according to a paper in the latest Journal of

Advanced Nursing.

Researchers studied a group of fall-prone (易摔跤的) adults, with an average age of 78,

living in residential care. 29 people undertook a 12-week Tai Chi programme and the other 30

formed the non-exercise control group. The exercise programme consisted of 10 minutes of

warming-up exercises, 20 minutes of Sun-style Tai Chi movement and 5 minutes of cooling down

exercises. During the exercise, traditional instrumental music was used. It helped the group

maintain slow and continuous movements and provide a comforting effect.

Both groups underwent a series of tests before and after the 12-week exercise programme.

They measured their muscle strength, balance and confidence in avoiding falls. Researchers

analyzed the data and compared them with those of the non-exercise control group. They found

that the physical fitness of the exercise group showed significant improvement, with stronger

knee and ankle muscles, improved flexibility and better balance.

Tai Chi, an ancient Chinese martial art (武术), consists of a series of slow, gentle, continuous

movements. It is particularly suitable for old people as it helps them to develop stronger muscles

and better balance and concentration. “Our study shows that low-intensity exercise such as Tai

Chi has great potential for health promotion. It can help old people to avoid falls by developing

their balance, muscle strength and confidence,” says Professor Song. “We believe that regular

exercise should be a fundamental part of caring for old people living both in the community and

in residential care.”

3．Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s)of the

passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.

If you’re like most of the world, you make time for following friends on social media. That is

not a bad thing at all. Positive posting and communication can help improve your confidence and

sense of connection to others. It can be surprisingly easy, though, to unconsciously slip into less

healthful behavior on social media, and that can lead to anxiety and depression. New research

has identified which habits can lead to troubles.

Do you feel jealous every time you read on social media about your cousin’s beautiful new

home or you boss’ exciting European vacation “Surveillance” of those you know in order to

get an inside look of their material success is a potentially destructive behavior, according to

researchers at the University of Missouri. Measuring material or lifestyle achievements of

someone you know can lead to negative feelings, and can easily lead you to create tension in a

relationship where there was none.

A second study by the University of Missouri found that people who post often- about

anything and everything they are doing- experience more troubles in their marriages and

romantic relationships than those who don’t post about their lives in detail. Another study by

researchers at Boston University also found that heavy social media users are 32% more likely to

think about leaving their husbands or wives.

This is most likely because over-sharing your life with others by direct messaging and posting

images can create relationship conflict. Not only are you potentially developing bonds with new

people, but also that bonding may deepen and affect your own relationship, according to the

study of a doctoral student, Russell Clayton.

Things to Do After You Study

Many students study with little thought about what comes after their study session. But

what you do after studying could have an effect on how well you learn and remember new

information. Today on Education Tips, we will explore two no-cost ways that can help you

improve your learning: wakeful rest and sleep.

When many students finish studying, they often go straight to another activity. But research

suggests that resting after you study may help you remember what you studied. The basic idea is

this: by reducing your activity after the study session, your brain gets a chance to rest. Resting is

difficult when you have too much stimulation from electronic devices, games, lights and so on.

While this might sound unusual to you, many studies have explored the benefits of resting

after learning - what is called “wakeful rest.” A 2019 study found that both young and older

adults were able to better remember, or recollect, information from prose passages after doing

wakeful rest. The findings appeared in Neuroscience Letters. This study involved 45 younger

people and 40 elderly adults.” Wakeful resting led to higher overall recollection in both age

groups,” the researchers noted. If you want to give “wakeful rest” a try, here are a few simple

things to do. Rest quietly for five to ten minutes. Do not look at your phone, read stories or play

games. Just limit the amount of stimulation you get. It is really that easy!

In addition to wakeful rest, sleep is also important for learning. The Division of Sleep

Medicine at Harvard Medical School notes that sleep helps people to learn in two ways. A report

on the school's website explains that “a sleep-deprived person cannot focus attention optimally

and therefore cannot learn efficiently.” It also says, “sleep itself has a role in the consolidation of

memory, which is essential for learning new information.” Robert Stickgold, a doctor and sleep

expert at Harvard Medical School, noted that new memories can be hard to keep. “When we first

form memories, they're in a very raw and fragile form,” he said. Sleep is important for forming

memories.

Now you have two suggestions for how to learn new information. Try to get some “wakeful

rest” after a study session. Then try to get a good night's sleep. That's a simple way to help you

remember what you learn.

5．Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the

passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.

College admission season is upon us. With the ever-increasing competition among college

applicants, writing an effective and sincere college recommendation letter is one way high school

teachers can help students stand out among the competition. Here are a few things I have

learned how to write a recommendation for my students.

Try beginning your letter with something the person tasked with screening hundreds of

recommendation letters will remember. I like to start with an amusing story that illustrates who

the student is and how others perceive them. Make sure to use the student’s full name for the

first reference and then just the first name after that. My favorite strategy is to end the paragraph

with a single sentence that highlights the student’s strongest characteristics.

In the body of the letter, focus on who the student is rather than what the student has done.

What college reps want to know is how the student will fit into their environment. Give specific

examples of how the student achieved--did they overcome obstacles or tackle any challenges to

reach their goals? I usually write two short paragraphs for the body. Sometimes the first relates

character to academics, and the next relates character to extracurricular activities. Other times, I

use the student’s characteristics as the main focal points.

Conclude with a sincere statement of recommendation for the student to the college of

their choice. When sending the recommendation to a single college, use the college’s name in

your recommendation. Lastly, I return to using the student’s full name in my final reference to

him in the letter.

My last statement encourages the college to contact me with any further questions. I’ll be

surely delighted to receive any of their inquiry, meaning my student is under their consideration!

6．Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea of

the passage and how it is illustrated. Use your own words as far as possible.

In spite of all of the years spent in school preparing to enter the workplace, many recent

graduates say that they struggle with the transition from classroom to career world and have

difficulty adjusting to life on the job.

Writer and editor Joseph Lewis suggests one reason why this is the case. Lewis believes that

most of our school experiences — from childhood through university -are fairly predictable, while

life in the working world is far more ambiguous. In school, for example, the pattern stays more or

less the same from year to year. In the workplace, however, constant change is the norm, and

one has to adapt quickly. A project you are working on this month might suddenly change next

month or next week, and it’s often hard to anticipate what you’ll be doing six to twelve months

from now.

Another problem that graduates entering the workforce encounter is that they are

unprepared to think analytically. In school, many students including those in college, spend a lot

of time memorizing facts and repeating what they “learned” on tests. But in the workplace

employees are often expected to think critically and make decisions about their work, not just

follow a supervisor’s instructions.

Finally, many recent graduates say that one of the biggest difficulties they face is adapting to

teamwork on the job. In some ways, school does prepare one for collaborative nature of the

workplace. Learners sit classes every day with many other students. They must listen to others’

opinions, participate at times in group discussions, and learn how to get along outside the

classroom. Nevertheless, in school, a student normally works independently to complete most

tasks and receives a grade according to how well he or she has done. In the workplace, however,

employees must regularly interact with others and are often dependent on their co-workers for

their success.

and the main point(s) of the passage. Use your own words as far as possible.

Right Colors for Restaurant Walls?

Have you ever noticed that many restaurants have red or orange walls? This fashion comes

from the widely held belief that these two colors stimulate the appetite. Restauranteurs hope

that by stimulating the appetites of their customers in this way, they can encourage them to

order more food.

A large fast - food chain recently decided to test the belief that the color of the decoration

affects how much food their customers order. This company has restaurants in major cities across

the US and serves customers of all ages, including small children. The traditional decoration of

this restaurant chain includes beige（米的）paint on the walls. For this test, the company

painted the walls in half of its restaurants orange, leaving the other half of its restaurants with

their original beige walls. In order to make up for the possible influence of cultural differences

between cities, the company made sure that in every city where its restaurants are located, there

were both restaurants with orange walls and restaurants with beige walls.

The restaurant chain kept track of exactly what foods were ordered in each restaurant for

one year before the walls were painted, and then again for one year after the walls had been

painted. They found no difference. On average, customers in each restaurant, whether is had

beige or of the company said. “We have proven it.”

The wall s of all the restaurants in the chain have been restored to their original beige color.

The company president explained that this color is part of the company’s image. Now that the

study is over, people might be confused if they walked into a restaurant expecting beige walls and

got orange instead, so the company president explained.

passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.

When Everything Gets Smart

It still feels magical to light up your living room by saying “Alexa, turn on the lights.” Tech

companies are adding internet connections to just about everything you can imagine. Cars, door

locks, toasters, refrigerators, toothbrushes, motorcycle helmets.

More

and

more

technology powers are taking part in this trend — known by “the internet

of things.”

There is no denying that smart technology will lead to conveniences. You can use voice

commands to turn on the lights, coffee maker and music. You can get reminders from your

toothbrush to brush and tips on how best to do it. Thanks to the internet of things, you could live

like the Beast in the Disney movie, with animated objects around taking care of your every need.

That’s the appeal of smart homes for most people, and why they are supposed to be a $27 billion

market by 2021.

However, the facts are not always so rosy. The smart objects in your home can be a source of

annoyance. Usually people have to download dozens of different apps to a smartphone to control

everything, which means creating an account for each one of those apps. The fantasy of the

smart home is that it will save us time and effort. But the trouble involved in getting various

devices

from different companies to work together means that many things may take longer to

do.

Worse still, there may be security risks. Smart home systems are part of a larger suite (

套 )

devices, apps, websites and spaces that collect and analyze personal data about users. To get the

full benefits of smart home systems, users must share their locations, routines, tastes in music,

shopping history and so forth. It might manage your digital life quite well. On the other hand,

however, providing so much personal information benefits companies like Amazon. As they gain

access to users’ personal information, they may capitalize on (

获

利 ) it in the form of targeted

advertisements. Perhaps that’s why Wired magazine says, “Amazon’s next big business is selling

you.”

Smartened everything comes with broader security concerns. Unsecured devices connected

to the “internet of things” can be targets for hackers. Access to smart devices might provide

hackers a well-spring of useful data, including information about when users are home — or not.

Considering the disadvantages, why not slow down a bit as we head toward an uncertain

future?

passage in NO MORE THAN 60 WORDS. Use your own words as far as possible. Write your

answer on the answer sheet.

To understand the changing role of women in China, consider the runaway success of a

novel titled

Du

Lala’s

Rise.

Decades after Mao Zedong declared that women hold up half

the

sky,” the success of Du Lala and her peers reflects a curious fact about women in China:

they appear to be far more ambitious than their

counterparts

(对应者)in the United States.

Rjpa Rashid, a senior vice president at the Center for Work-Life Policy, says the rapid growth

“creates this excitement”， and builds on a cultural and historical

legacy

(遗产)in which Chinese

women are not just encouraged to participate in the workforce, they are expected to.

One result has been a generation of women and girls who believe they belong among

China’s power

elite

(

精

英 ). In the US, that shift followed decades of battles over equality and

women’s rights. In China, there are fewer institutional barriers for women trying to succeed

professionally.

That’s true, too, in the executive suite. Grant Thornton International, the tax consultancy,

found that roughly eight out of 10 companies in China had women in senior management roles,

compared with approximately half in the European Union and two thirds in the

US.

Similarly,

in China, 31 percent of top executives are female, compared with 20

percent in America.

Thirdly, child care is easily accessible in China, enabling them to pursue their careers after

giving birth to their children. Fourthly, ambition has become a matter of necessity in fast-paced

China, and both the husband and wife have to work in order to keep up with the skyrocketing

housing prices.

the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.

How Do Our Phones Affect Our Parenting?

As a

pediatrician

(儿科医生), I have researched how mobile phone use affects family

dynamics. The parent-child relationship is central to children’s social and emotional health and

life success — yet I also see how more and more family interactions interrupted by mobile

devices … including my own.

My interest in the topic began in 2010. I worked for a year as a pediatrician in the suburbs

outside of Seattle. Many of the parents bringing in their sick kids worked at tech companies and

were early adopters of mobile devices. During my training, I had gotten used to children playing

with handheld gaming devices, but this was different: parents texted during health-related

conversations (were they really processing what I was saying?); looked up medical information

online to check my accuracy (was this a sign of parent anxiety?); and used videos to stop children

from crying (this was pretty helpful during ear exams, but is it OK other times, I wondered?).

I was fascinated by the cultural change America was experiencing with the rapid adoption of

mobile devices. But as a pediatrician, I had no idea what to do about it. So when I moved to

Boston for training in Developmental Behavioral Pediatrics, I decided to explore the topic in more

depth.

I started my research by observing families in fast food restaurants and the results were

pretty eye-opening: when parents’ attention was highly absorbed in their smartphones, parents

talked less to children; responded slower (or not at all) to child bids for attention; and sometimes

overreacted to child behavior.

Our more recent studies show that in the long-run, parent technology use during

parent-child activities leads to more difficult child behavior — which in turn leads to more parent

technology usage. It’s a vicious cycle: when kids stress us out, we often go to our phones for

escape or to avoid interaction, and this interrupts time with kids or makes them annoyed, and

they might react with difficult behavior, and so on.

As a working mom of two young boys, I knew how this child-phone multitasking felt to me,

but I wanted to hear what others thought. So I interviewed 35 parents from diverse backgrounds

in Boston to understand their experiences. They told me they have never felt their brains split in

so many directions — like all the matters of the world could intrude upon home time and “land in

their lap”. They expressed both relief and despair when their phones were broken or lost,

because while this made it easier to “single-task” on their kids again, they also felt cut off from

friends and information.

这是一篇概要写作。要求概括出，作者儿科医生的经历让她对“智能手机如何影响子女养育”产生了兴趣并进行了研究，取得了相关发现：父母在关注手机时可能会忽视孩子，导致孩子行为困难，而在没有手机照看孩子时可能会感到孤立。

【详解】

写作步骤：

1 )细读原文。首先要仔细阅读短文，掌握文章主旨。阅读文章可知，作者对“智能手机如何影响子女养育”产生了兴趣，并进行了研究且取得了相关发现：父母在关注孩子的手机时可

能会忽视孩子，导致孩子行为困难，而在照看没有手机的孩子时可能会感到孤立。

2 )弄清结构，归纳段意。概要写作是写全文概要，不是写某部分的概要，或者就某些问题写出要点，要综合每段段意或每部分大意概括出文章大意。本文第一段讲作者研究了智能手机对子女养育的影响，第二和三段讲作者儿科医生的经历让她对“智能手机如何影响子女养育”产生了兴趣致使她对其进行研究，第四至六段讲作者的研究发现：父母在关注手机时可能会忽视孩子，导致孩子行为困难，而在没有手机照看孩子时可能会感到孤立。

3 )列出原文要点。分析原文的内容和结构，将内容分项扼要表述并注意在结构上的顺序。在此基础上选出与文章主题密切相关的部分。

4 )在写作时要特别注意下面几点:

(1 )概要应包括原文中的主要事实，略去不必要的细节。

(2 )安排好篇幅的比例，概要应同原文保持协调，即用较多的文字写重要内容，用较少的文字写次要内容。

(3 )注意要点之间的衔接，要用适当的关联词语贯通全文，切忌只简单地写出一些互不相干的句子，但也不要每两句之间都加关联词语，以免显得生硬。

(4 )不排斥用原文的某些词句，但不要照搬原文的句子，如果不能完全用自己的话语表达，至少对原文句子做一些同义词替换，如果结构上也能有一些转换会更好。

(5)计算词数，看是否符合规定的词数要求。

【点睛】

范文内容完整，语言规范，语篇连贯，词数适当。作者在范文中使用了较多高级表达方式，如reveal后接了一个宾语从句，省略了引导词that，宾语从句it is difficult to balance both

children and phones中用it作形式主语代替真正主语to balance both children and phones；使用了非常好的短语，如interest in, focus on, feel isolated等。全文中没有中国式英语的句式，显示了很高的驾驭英语的能力。另外，文章思路清晰、层次分明，上下句转换自然，为文章增添彩。
