高考冲刺别让孩子如临大敌
每年的这个时候都是众多高三学生家长最为繁忙的时候。那么作为家长,怎样做才能够给孩子在高考过程中以最有效地帮助呢?记者邀请了几位往届毕业生家长,与大家分享他们在孩子高考时的陪考经验,希望助你一臂之力。
对孩子要充分信任
韩建通老师的孩子去年参加高考,作为西安交通大学的哲学系教授,他没有刻意地干预自己孩子的学习。“我特别的关注孩子的学习,但是并没有干预或者说是干涉孩子的复习计划,只是了解孩子当前的学习情况,在此期间,我不会给他什么具体的要求,那样会让孩子有很大的压力,反而对孩子的学习不好。”韩建通告诉记者,“有的时候孩子放松一下,我也不会怪他,我只想让孩子按照自己的节奏和学习习惯去安排自己的学习,我要对孩子充分的信任。”
在考前,韩老师的孩子学习成绩也是时高时低,但是韩老师夫妇都很了解自己的孩子,成绩一直不错让他们比较放心,韩建通分析,出现成绩时高时低这种情况应该是孩子给自己的压力比较大,作为家长,我并没有去质问孩子,而是让他自己给自己分析一下是什么原因,我在旁边做出一些指导,有的时候也可以帮他分析一下。但是从来没有过分的干预他的思考,我觉得要给予孩子充分的信任,要关注孩子的学习,但是没有必要太过于敏感。告诉孩子,只要你尽自己的努力去做就好了,平常心就好了,高考的时候,我还在外地忙自己的工作,我一直认为,高考是一个人一生中比较重要的事儿,但是也是很普通的事情,平常心去做就好了。
让孩子轻松一点
西电高中书记康太平的孩子学习一直还好。高三学习很紧张,他每天接送孩子上下学,以减少孩子在路上的浪费时间,同时也可以在路上增加和孩子的沟通。
对于孩子的成绩,他表示自己很少过问孩子的成绩,只要看到孩子在努力、在尽力学习就好了。他告诉记者:“现在的考试和过去不一样了,过去参加高考的学生很少,家长可能很重视,因为孩子毕业后就会有很好的工作;现在不是这样,北大的学生也不一定就能够找到多好的工作,不太好的学校里的学生不一定就找不到好的工作。上学不就是为了找个好工作嘛!”他还表示,其实,顺其自然更好,我们一直让孩子按照平常一样上学,就算在高考的时候,也是一样的,我们不想让孩子好像是如临大敌一样。
现在,他的孩子即将从西安电子科技大学毕业了,工商管理专业的优势让孩子在工作上有了很大的发展空间。他向记者表示:“现在的就业是很灵活的,不是说上一个好大学就能找到好工作的,当前的就业形式就是一个最好的例子。因素是很多的,机遇有时也很重要。所以,我觉得高考,还是应该理智看待。”
考生平衡饮食最重要
此外,在对待孩子高三学生的营养方面,两位家长都不赞成给孩子大补,他们表示,因为毕竟人的身体还是有一个承受极限的,那样的话孩子的身体可能会不适应,会扰乱孩子的生物钟等等,反而适得其反。
而营养专家建议,考生在高考冲刺阶段大量用脑,加上身体正处在生长发育期,能量消耗很大,必须有充足的热量、蛋白质、维生素及微量元素等。在饮食上,考生要保证早餐质量,可以缓解上午上课的压力。考生还要以富含碳水化合物的面食为主,注意酸碱食品的合理搭配,适量进食一些高蛋白的牛奶、豆浆、蛋类等,同时要吃些新鲜的蔬菜、水果、动物肝脏等富含维生素和无机盐的食物,使各种能量的摄入维持平衡,这样才能增强抗体,提高免疫力。
家长一定要少干涉子女的学习和生活习惯,要尊重学生平日的饮食习惯,避免打乱学生自身的生物钟。在饮食上,考生吃饭时七八分饱就可以了,吃得过饱会增加肠胃负担,抑制大脑皮层神经细胞的兴奋,影响大脑信息的传递。同时,睡觉前不要饥饿入眠,可以适量地增加夜宵餐饮,保证睡眠质量。
针对考生压力过重、容易失眠的问题,专家建议考生可以喝些小米汤、玉米粥或温牛奶,也可在开水中加点儿醋服用,这都有助于睡眠。专家强调,尽管高考有压力,每天的适量运动也是不可缺少的,健康运动会疏解精神压力,能够解除身心疲惫的状况。
给“浮躁”考生支招
浮躁,既是一种不舒服的情绪体验,也是一种感觉低效的复习状态。高三备考进入三月份,属于第一阶段复习转向第二阶段复习的衔接期,属于知识向能力转化的转型期。根据2007年在绵阳市高三学生中做的问卷调查分析得出约49.3%的学生会出现学习浮躁。浮躁出现有两个核心原因:一是学科问题没有理清,二是情绪问题没有理清。因为缺乏相应指导,一些同学难以迅速调整走出困境,导致成绩明显下降,甚至丧失复习信心,即使学业优秀的学生中也不乏此例。
该怎么办好呢?建议降低期望目标,回归学科基础。可以从以下两个方面尝试改进。
第一,理清学科问题,追求复习效果
1.问题检查,漏洞补救
如果我们存在核心知识的漏洞,常会出现严重的偏科,或某些板块的内容总是难以掌握,导致学习低效。
怎样分析核心知识的漏洞呢?可以采取“错题分类”策略。借助“错题集”、试卷等载体,采集错题,并且进行分类:(1)过失性失分或知识性失分;(2)高频出错或低频出错;(3)容易题、中等题或难题等。在分类的基础上,才能真正发现并高层次地解决学科问题。高频出错的题目,往往反映学生的核心知识点缺陷;过失性失分题目,往往折射出学生的高三心态还缺乏修炼。而且,分类使得问题数量被“压缩”,无形中也提升了复习信心。
2.问题澄清,目标分解
高考命题,容易题、中等题、难题的比例一般为3:5:2。理论上,以单科满分150计算,准确作答容易题和中等题,就可以获取120分的理想成绩。这提醒学生,要对问题进行辨识和选择,对问题进行必要的取舍。要结合自己的考试期望目标,分析哪些题目是自己必须优先考虑而且必须准确作答的,哪些题目是可以舍弃的。期望考试题目都能答对、没有失分是不明智的,关键是取得自己应该得的成绩,便没有遗憾;同时,要对梳理的问题进行一个规划,分阶段解决。同时不要与教师的复习安排冲突,要保障阶段性自我监督、检查和落实。通过分解大目标,落实小目标,自然容易体验真实的复习效果。譬如一个一个的十字路口更容易使人确信目标的接近。
3.问题反思,效果评价
学而不思则罔,罔则失去方向。农民在驴子拉磨时,给它蒙上眼睛,或鼻子上挂根胡萝卜,以防止它感觉原地转圈索然寡味而停下来,所谓“胡萝卜效应”。如果学生对问题缺乏反思,对复习效果缺乏评价,就容易浮躁和倦怠。
评价复习成效,要看名次变化,也要看问题变化、状态变化。其一,评价名次变化,要注意选择合理的参照系。以全市以至全省考生作为参照更合理,切忌仅以班级名次作为参照,因为高考录取参照的是全省考生。机械地参照本班名次评价自己的复习,往往容易体验挫败,情绪低落。其二,评价问题和感觉。学科问题减少了,对某一问题的认识更清晰了,对某一解题思路的理解更深刻了,感觉自己的状态更好了等等,都是复习的成效。
第二,理清学习情绪,改善复习状态
我们在学习某一知识的同时,也获得了某种积极或消极的情绪,经过类似情景反复强化,这种情绪往往成为潜意识条件反射,明知不该这样,就是难以控制。怎么办?
1.自我提问,寻找隐藏情绪
在心浮气躁、难以静心复习时,不妨做一个放松练习:如深呼吸,写下头脑此刻的所有想法,按对自己的困扰程度排序,选择最前面两项分析――这一定就是“心结”了。把潜意识的消极情绪外显,就初步梳理了情绪。
2.自我设计,提高适应能力
潜意识的不良学习情绪,其实就是一种习惯性条件反射,就是一种习惯性不适应行为。因此,我们完全可以预先设计一套适应的、智慧的行为,再经科学训练、反复操练,以覆盖旧的不适应行为。如:
不良行为:考试期间,一遇到难题就莫名其妙心烦,心想干脆胡乱作答算了。
矫正方法:一觉察心烦,马上深呼吸,迫使自己的思维停止,终止旧行为;之后,自我提醒:“这只是一种情绪化反应,没有任何实际意义”;最后,平静下来,冷静思考,尽量作答,即开始新行为。
在放松状态下,想象某种理性行为并自行训练,每天三至五次,坚持三周必有明显效果。
3.自我暗示,修炼积极心态
备考,并非只有智能的储备,也需要心态的修炼。明白快乐或痛苦,挫折或成功,都是备考过程的一种体验,都是成长的一种资源,我们需要学会与它和谐相处,且从中获益,而不是怨天尤人。
每天临睡前,寻找一件自己愉悦的或有成就感的事,无论多么微不足道,用三五句话夸张描述自己的良好感觉;次日起床后,重读昨天日记,重温昨天良好感觉。如此,坚持一个月,必有惊喜发现。
另外,我们的心灵犹如一个容器,消极情绪则如同垃圾。长期累积没有及时宣泄,则这些垃圾必然发酵,令人不快。情绪烦躁时,慢跑15分钟,身体微微发热,就有宣泄效果。
总之,“三月浮躁”是整个高三备考过程中的一个转折点。跨越了三月浮躁期,复习就会再入佳境。要达到这一境界,我们需要的是一种心无旁骛的状态,一种科学合理的思维,一种弥久愈新的激情。

短短的几行诗,道出了对人生的感受与理解。人生的路是长长的,生活的路是真实的。这条路尽管有始有终但在这条路上应乐观地去生活,执着地去追求,努力地去探索,不断开创人生的新舞台,创造生活得新未来。
如果把人生比作一个五彩缤纷的大舞台,那么我们每个人就是这个舞台上的演员,可以尽情表演,尽情游戏。但在人生的舞台上,“没有不下台的演员/也没有不散场的观众”,不论你在舞台上表演得多么精彩,获得过多少鲜花与掌声,终究是要“落幕”的。这似乎让人难以接受。
零一次还是有一百零二次的落幕 &nbs
“落幕”并不意味着结束,而是对生活与人生的一种坦然与豁达。“雨点在无声飘落/泥土并不是它的墓园”,在阳光与空气中,雨点又可以幻化成晶莹的露珠,迷蒙的雾气,绚烂的彩虹。所以说,“落幕”正是一种新生活的开始。这一切都源于诗人对自然、对人生宽广的爱。
人生没有不散的宴席,平平淡淡才是真。所以诗人在最后说:“只有长长的路是真实的。”这对于浮躁的现代人而言,可谓是至理名言。既然如此,那就让我们躬下身来,沉下心来,“快乐地、热情地、认真地”去生活吧!

世界名车“奔驰”是由两家公司组合而成,这两家本是竞争对手,各有很强的实力,本次生成的马达在世界有名气,待拉姆则以创造性的变速器享誉世界。他们认识到,只有合作,才能占取更多的市场,壮大他们的实力。于是他们强强联手,而今成为世界屈指可数的汽车“大亨”。
2、整理材料:
:材料作文 一、阅读下面一首小诗,按要
①竞争最充分地反映了流行在现代市民社会中的一切人反对一切人的战争。这个战争,这个为了活命、为了生存、为了一切而进行的战争,因而必要时也是你死我活的战争,不仅在社会各个阶级之间进行,而且也在这些阶级的各个成员之间进行;一个人挡着另一个人的路,因而每一个人都力图挤掉其余的人并占有他们的位置。工人彼此竞争,资产者也彼此竞争。(《英国工人阶级状况》,1844年9月-1845年3月, 《马克思恩格斯全集》第二卷第359页)
② 日本人的人生方式,就是个体与群体并重、竞争与协作结合的。一个典型的日本人,不仅具有强烈的成就动机和竞争取胜的精神,而且同时又非常注重集体意识,善于合作与协调。这就是日本人的自我表现与自我克制统一的性格。美国历史学家埃德温•赖肖尔赞扬日本人无疑比多数西方人具有更多的集体倾向,而且在互助合作的团体生活中形成了这方面的高超技巧。但是,他又强调指出,日本人具有浓厚的个人意识,在把个人从属于集体的同时,在其他方面仍然保持着强烈的个性意识,顽强地表现自己,积极奋斗,干劲十足。据说,日本人流行一句话:一个中国人可以于得过一个日本人,但三个中国人却于不过三个日本人。这话显然是说中国人有个人竞争和成功的能力,但是不善于集体协作,去发挥协作和整体的力量。这话有偏颇,也有道理。
③一些西方学者依据西方历史观来观察中印的发展,他们在比较中印的时候,往往会有意无意地运用零和博弈的观点来观察中印的崛起,却很少或不愿考虑两国如何在发展中不断互补共进。在他们看来,似乎中印并肩发展的最终结局只能是一胜一负或两败俱伤。更值得警惕的是,在现实的国际政治中,有些西方势力长期以来,正是试图通过拉一个、打一个来制造他们所希望维持的某种“平衡”。
不下台的演员没有不散场的观众鼓掌一百
不可否认,中印两国之间既有历史的恩恩怨怨,也存在着一些误解和矛盾,特别是民众交往以及相互了解还很不够。但是,从近年来双边关系的不断加深来看,双方显然已经清醒地认识到了这些问题,猜疑正在逐渐减少。一位印度高官说得好:国际上“有一种说法叫做印度对中国(India vs China),而我更喜欢说印度和中国(India and China)”。
目前,中印两国已经确定了战略合作伙伴关系,去年1月24日举行了首次战略对话。中印边界问题特别代表的会晤也取得了积极的进展。近年来,中印双边贸易额以年均30%的速度增长,由2000年的20亿美元增长到2005年的180亿美元。双方制定的在2008年实现双边贸易额200亿美元的目标有望提前一年实现。中印两军关系近年来也呈现出良好的发展势头,双方互信不断加深,友好交往进一步扩大,这也为边境地区的和平与安宁营造了良好气氛。

One day, a young man was cleaning out his late grandfather’s belongings when he came across a bright red envelope. Written on the 36 were the words, “To my grandson.”. 37 it was his grandfather’s handwriting, the boy opened the envelope. A letter inside read:
Dear Ronny,
Years ago you 38 to me for help. You said, “Grandpa, how is it that you’ve 39 so much in your life? You’re still full of 40 , but I’m already tired of struggling. How can I get that same enthusiasm that you’ve got?”
I didn’t know what to say to you then. But knowing my days are 41 , I figure that I 42 you an answer. So here is what I believe.
I think it has something to 43 with how a person looks at things. I call it “keeping your eyes wide open”.
First, realize that life is filled with surprises, but many are good ones. If you don’t keep 44 for them, you’ll miss half the excitement. Expect to be excited 45 , and you will be.
When you meet up with 46 , welcome them. They’ll leave you wiser, stronger, and more capable than you were the day before. When you make a mistake, be 47 for the things it taught you. Learn to use that lesson to help you reach your goals.
It’s also important to 48 exactly what you want. Then keep your mind focused on it, and be prepared to receive it.
As you grow with the years, you’ll be given bigger shoes to fill. So be ready for endings as well as challenging 49 .
Sometimes we have to be brave enough to move from the familiar to the unfamiliar. Life isn’t just reaching peaks. Part of it is moving from one 50 to the next. If you 51 too long in between, you might be tempted to 52 . So consider all the pathways ahead, and decide which ones to 53 . Then believe in yourself, get up, and get going.
Most important of all, never give up on yourself. The person that ends up a winner is the one who resolves (决定) to 54 . Give life everything you’ve got, and life will give its best 55 to you.

A
I believe that my country, Poland, is a perfect example for a place where food is particularly important. When we were little children, we began to understand how much a loaf of bread meant to our parents―to some it might sound silly but for me the custom of kissing bread before you started cutting it was simply amazing. It's not so common nowadays to treat food that way, since you hardly ever bake your own bread. Besides, everyone would call you crazy if you tried to kiss every bread roll before you ate them! But though we no longer make our food from scratch (起点), some customs have been kept--that's why I feel so sorry every time I have to throw any food away―even though I no longer live with my parents and nobody would blame me for this anymore!
Many people of
our nation are still working as farmers, eating what they grow and harvest and
therefore enjoying everything more. It's widely known that you value more
anything that needs your effort in the first place. In most homes in
In Poland, a wedding, Christmas or even a birthday is celebrated with a great meal. Women in the house get together and cook, sometimes for a few days before the event, and the extremely good or unusual food will be remembered and widely talked about.
You cannot
over-value the importance of food in the country. What's more, almost everyone
in
56. When the writer was a child, he / she ________.
A. found people were crazy about bread B. began to realize the importance of food
C. thought that cutting bread was amazing
D. learned people hardly baked their own bread
57. The writer feels very sorry when he/she has to throw away any food because _________.
A. he/she makes food from scratch B. his/her parents would blame him/her
C. some customs still have effect on him/her
D. many people are still working hard as farmers
58. From the text, we can learn that, in Poland, ________.
A. most meals can be interesting topics for a long time
B. the whole family often have meals together nowadays
C. it's common for women to get together to cook for a few days
D. family members can know more about each other by having meals together
B
Everybody likes a winner, and there are always people ready to cheer for a good winner. But who has ever heard a song for the man who comes in second? So this is in praise of the almost winner, the nearly champion, the next to the biggest, the second best. This is the song of Mister Two.
You hear unflattering names for Mister Two. "Alsoran", they call him, and "runner-up". Names that make you think of a fellow who couldn't quite make it. Don't let that fool you.
Ask the winner of any race how good a man Mister Two is. He will tell you it's Mister Two who made him run so fast. Mister Two is pressing hard at his heels threatening always to overtake and pass him.
Ask the salesman who won the contest and what kept him plugging (宣传,推销) after hours, looking for extra orders. Ask the directors of the big company why they keep changing their product, seeking the new equipment, the added advantage. What drives them? What keeps them working hard? It's the salesman with nearly as many orders. It is the company with the product almost as good. It's Mister Two.
In this country, we're proud of the quality of our champions. Our big men come very big. Our fast men run very fast. Our wise men are the wisest and our greatest men are the greatest that a country could hope to be blessed with. And why is that? Couldn't it be because great Mister Two's growing naturally in a land where the race is always open and everybody can run? So this is for you, Mister Two. This is your song. This is for all the days you tried for first, and came in second. It's for the nights when you wonder if you ought to go on trying, since nobody seems to notice...
We notice, Mister Two. We know the score. Winner or not, you're a natural champion. There couldn't be a race without you, Mister Two.

I remember the way the light touched her hair. She turned her head, and our eyes met, a momentary awareness in that noisy fifth grade classroom. I felt as though I'd been struck a blow under the heart. Thus began my first love affair.
Her name was Rachel, and I mooned my way through the grade and high school, stricken at the mere sight of her, tongue-tied in her presence. Does anyone, anymore, wander in the shadows of evening, drawn by the pale light of a window―her window―like some unlucky summer insect?
Her beauty made me awkward and my voice crack(沙哑), which is like some impossible dream now. I would catch sight of her, walking down an aisle of trees to or from school, and I'd become a fool. She always seemed so charming.
At home, I'd relive each meeting between us, suffering at the thought of my shortcoming. We eventually got to know as we entered our adolescence( 青春期). She knew I had a case on her, and I sensed her emotional tolerance for me. "Going steady" implied a maturity we still lacked. Her Orthodox Jewish upbringing and my own Catholic belief made even kissing a distant prospect(前景), however strongly desired.
At any rate, my love for Rachel remained without result. We graduated from high school. She went on to college, and I joined the Army. When World War II broke out, I was sent overseas. For a time we wrote, and her letters were the highlight of those terrible endless years.
I mentioned the possibility of marriage in my next letter, and almost immediately her replies became less frequent, less personal. Her Dear John letter finally caught up with me while I was awaiting discharge. She gently explained the impossibility of a marriage between us.
Looking back on it, I must have recovered rather quickly, although for the first few months I believed I didn't want to live. Like Rachel, I found someone else, whom I learned to love with a deep and permanent commitment that has lasted to this day.
67. According to the passage, how old was the author when his first love affair began?
A. Before he turned his teens. B. In his early twenties.
C. In his middle twenties. D. When he was just out of his teens.
68. How did the author behave as a boy in love?
A. His first love motivated him toward hard study.
B. He was overpowered (制服) by wild excitement and passion.
C. His first love set off sentimental memories.
D. He fulfilled his expectations and desires.
69. According to the passage, what held them back from a loving kiss?
A. Her Orthodox Jewish upbringing did not allow it.
B. His Catholic belief forbade it.
C. They were not sure whether it was proper to kiss in line with their religious decorum
(礼节).
D. Kissing was found to be impolite or even illegal.
70. According to the passage, what was Rachel's response to the author's tender affection before the war?
A. She permitted him to adore her without losing her own heart to him.
B. She controlled his affection by turning him down.
C. She recognized and accepted his love affectionately.
D. She didn't care for him at all and only took delight in playing with his feelings.

“BANG! BANG!” Setting off firecrackers(爆竹), which has been the most typical custom on the Spring Festival, is the happiest part of the Festival for most Chinese kids. They light the fuse(导火线) nervously, run away in a hurry, cover their ears with their hands and watch the colorful display with a big smile on their faces. Faced with the beautiful scene, they feel they are the happiest ones in the world as if they had never had a more exciting experience.
While setting off firecrackers can bring kids so much fun, these
firecrackers can also be dangerous. Therefore, many Chinese big cities
including
This year good news came for teens in
According to Chinese custom, lighting firecrackers is a must during the Spring Festival. People believe the sound of the firecrackers drives away demons(恶魔) and bad luck for the coming year. Their beautiful colours and sound also bring much excitement during this most important traditional Chinese festival.
Since the ban, people complained that the Spring Festival was too quiet and not traditional enough. Children lost the fun and grown-ups lost their childhood memories.
Some even worried that if the ban continued, the next generation would only know the custom of lighting firecrackers through books. This would be a great loss for tradition.
Everybody knows that we can’t give up eating for the slight risk of
choking(因噎废食). So in recent
years, many cities have resumed the old custom at the request of local
residents. This year
However, every year there are kids injured by setting off fireworks in a dangerous way. So while enjoying yourself, please bear safety in mind.
Don’t light fireworks among crowds, inside a bottle or with a part of your body right over it.

M: Not at this moment. Look at the traffic. It is moving very slowly. We can get there just as quickly on foot.

W: I find it hard to say “no” than “yes”.
M: Me, too, and most people do. Sometimes when we are at home relaxing for a couple of days, our friends ask us to offer some help. We usually agree reluctantly.
W: Yes. Many people say “yes” to this kind of requests. People tend not to consider their own interests and feelings, but are often angry with themselves afterwards.
M: That’s true. Saying “no” requires courage and considerable practice. For people are afraid saying “no” risks losing the friendship of the person asking for help.
W: But in fact, rejecting a request can even help to keep a relationship last longer.
M: Yes, I agree. It is better to say “no” sometimes.
