  一家日本公司和一家美国公司进行了一场划船比赛,日本队赢了一英里。美国人便请来了分析家探讨问题出在哪里。他们的报告说日本队有一人掌舵七人划桨,而美国队是七人掌舵一人划桨。美国公司立刻对队伍进行了重组。这次他们有一个高级舵手、六个舵手顾问、一个划桨员。
  在第二次比赛中,日本队赢了两英里。因此,美国公司解雇了划桨员。

一、使役动词与 to 的省略  当不定式用于 let, make, have 等使役动词后作宾语补足语,不定式必须省略 to。如:  Let me have another cup of tea. 给我再来一杯茶。  She had him dig away the snow. 她让他把雪挖走。  They made him tell them everything. 他们强迫他把一切全告诉他们。
“素质高考” 还有多远    由于清楚地认识到高考制度“一考定终身”、以一次考试成绩来评价并淘汰学生的弊端,教育部门陆续推出高校自主招生、高中实施综合素质评价等措施来弥补缺陷,高考改革开始在摸索中进行。  高考改革对于推进素质教育、培养高素质人才确实具有很重要的指挥棒的意义,是体现教育公平、体现社会公平的非常重要的关键点,而砍掉“独木桥”,建设“立交桥”,使更多的人能接受高等教育,是高考改革的方向

单项填空是全国各省市高考英语必考题型之一(广东省A卷除外),它既考查考生的语言知识水平,又检测其分析和运用语言的实践能力。本文拟通过分析2008年高考试题中的单项填空题,归纳其做题思路,以期有助于同学们复习迎考。    一、利用语境答题  近年来的高考英语单项填空题,不单是考查语言规则,也不是考查语言规则的死记硬背,而是注重考查语言知识的具体运用,即将语言知识置于一定的语境中,要求考生在实际语言环
