who know their strenghth. imitation is unacceptable.in the early stages of skill or character development, imitation is helpful. when i first learned to cook, i used recipes (菜谱) and turned out some

include book reviews about books that tackle the topics the magazine discusses. also, most editors and staff writers are usually too busy to read books and review them themselves (unless they are specifically assigned to a book review column). therefore, writing book reviews can be a great way to get started with a writing career.many people that are reading your review may not know anything about the book youre reviewing. instead of making them go find information on their own by searching for the book title, start out with a little description of the book. make sure you avoid too long of a summary, though, because if too much of your article is a summary of the book, it wont be interesting. start with a short paragraph or so that hits all the major points but doesnt give too much away. you dont want to tell your reader everything about the book, because then they wont have to read it at all. just give enough information so your reader is interested in reading the book.some magazines like to publish book reviews that are completely objective（客观的）. this means that they want a review of the book that doesnt share your opinion and that in which your opinion isnt obvious from reading what you wrote. if you hated a book, it might not be a great book to review. you probably want to review books that you enjoyed. this will give your review a positive spin. avoid gushing about how much you loved the book, however. you should not include your personal reaction to the book until the very end, where you include a sentence or two about whether or not you would recommend a book and to whom you would recommend it.a great way to get your review noticed is to look at a book through a specific lens. read the book as a feminist（女权主义者） would, for example, and talk about what a feminist might say to applaud or criticize the book. you can choose any number of lenses, and feminism is just one option. an economic lens, a family lens, the lens of a different nationality, or the lens of a child could all be interesting ways to look at a book. if you look at a book in this way, instead of just reading it and forming your own opinion, it will be much more interesting and marketable. this is especially the case if you look at a lens that relates to the subject of the magazine to which you are submitting. feminist magazines love book reviews about books read through a feminist lens, for example, because it pertains to their readership.another great way to write a book review is to talk about the writers style. anyone can pick up a book and read for the plot, but it takes an experienced writer to note interesting things about another writers style and write about them intelligently.1. whats the first paragraph mainly about?a. standards of good book reviews. b. benefits of writing book reviews.c. ways to get your writing published. d. topics usually discussed in magazines.2. which of the following is a characteristic of a good book review?a. including much information on a major point of the book.b. stating clearly the writers opinion of the book.c. giving a brief summary of the book.d. avoiding describing the book.3. the fourth paragraph is developed mainly by.a. giving examplesb. telling personal experiencesc. making comparisonsd. analyzing causes4. according to the text, only a skilled writer can.a. look at a book through a specific angle b. give an objective description of a bookc. find a book and understand its plot easily d. pay close attention to another writers style【参考答案】14、bcad阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的a,b,c或d四个选项中，选出最佳选项。while some dictionaries define the word “right” as “a privilege” when used in the context of “human rights”, we are talking about something more basic. originally, people had rights only because of their membership in a group, such as a family. then, in 539 bc, cyrus the great, after conquering the city of babylon, did something totally unexpectedhe set all slaves free and let them return home. moreover, he declared people should choose their own religion. cyrus statements are about the first “human rights” declaration in history. every person has certain basic rights, simply by the fact of being human. these are called “human rights” rather than a privilege, which can be taken away at someones sudden desire. they are “rights” because they are things you are allowed to be, to do or to have. these rights are there for your protection against people who might want to harm or hurt you. they are also there to help us get along with each other and live in peace. yet many people, when asked to name their rights, will list only freedom of speech and belief and perhaps one or two others. there is no question that these are important rights, but the full scope of human rights is very broad. they mean choice and opportunity. they mean the freedom to get a job, adopt a career, select a partner of ones choice and raise children. they include the right to travel widely and the right to work without trouble, abuse and threat of arbitrary (霸道) dismissal. they ev
