《英语国家概况》学习心得与体会

英语国家概况（英美概况），雨婷认为是所有科目中最难的一科了！英概的出题范围很广，书中的每一句话都可能成为考题，尤其是选择题、填空题、改错题。从历年考题上看，英、美两国概况所占分值比较大，其他几国相对少些。其中以英、美两国的政治、经济、历史、教育、文化等方面为主，地理次之。

大家首先一定要把教材看透，如果感觉生词太多，可以先通读全文，然后把生词的释义及音标标注出来，再通读全文；若有英汉对照本，那学起来就更方便了！（呵呵，雨婷当时考的时候可没买到这本小册子。）然后把以下几方面单独整理出来，常看常记，雨婷觉得考题中会常出现的。当然这并不是雨婷在押题，而只是总结自己的考试经验而已，各位不要想偏了噢！！！^v^1、世界之最（国家之最、城市之最）；2、名作家作品；3、著名城市的地理位置；4、世界著名大学所在地及概况；5、各国历史（年代表）；6、历界总结；7、各国首都。

这几天雨婷将英、美两国的“之最”（世界之最、国家之最、城市之最等等）整理了一下，会贴出来的。至于其他方面，因为最近实在抽不出时间来，过阵子时间充足了，再好好整理整理！快考试了，加油噢！以下是英国之最（世界、国家、城市之最）及少部分英国作家作品等。声明：并非押题！！！这可是雨婷花了整整一天的时间、一个字母一个字母打出来的，呵呵，雨婷还是第一次打这么多的英文呢，感觉比打汉字费时多了！因为时间比较仓促，难免会有错误之处，望多涵噢！

英语国家概况学习要领

关于《英语国家概况》课程方面的辅导材料很少。现在又面临课程改革，薄薄的旧版本换成了700多页的厚本，实在是让人挠头。在这种情况下，我总结了自己的学习思路与具体的学习方法。思路共分三步：

第一步：粗读。先看大纲，然后把课本翻看一遍，大纲没涉及的内容也要看。

第二步：精读。要面面俱到，读完每一章后，要做练习册上的题，除此之外，把自己总结的题也要掌握，然后重读这一章。历史要一字不漏地看，其它的内容可参阅大纲，只抓重点部分看。

第三步：记重点。在熟悉习题的基础上，要通读全文，要看重点，依据题型去套书中的内容。

具体的学习方法如下：

一、通读全文，掌握框架：读书也要讲大将风范，有了具体的思路之后，还要在头脑中形成清晰的框架，从整体入手，然后，再把具体的重点加上去，这样，掌握起来，就不至凌乱。

二、找准重点，理清线索：熟悉课文内容是任何一科都必不可少的。《英语国家概况》比其它课要难，英国与美国的历史部分占很大篇幅，要作为重点去掌握，但这部分内容看起来又是那么宠杂，因此理清线索，摸清脉络之后，我们理解起来就轻松多了。如：英国历史部分可整理成这样一条线索：early settlers——Roman invations——Anglo-Saxons——the Viking and Danish Invations——the Norman Conquest——William?s Rule——the Great Charter——the Hundred Year?s War——the English

Reformation——the English Renaissance——the Civil War——the Glorius Revolution——the Industrial Revolution——in the two World Wars

美国历史部分可整理成这样一条线索：the war of Independence——the War of 1812——territorial expansion and Westward Movement——the Civil War——in the two World Wars——the Cold War——the Berlin Blockade——the Civil Rights Movement in the 1950s——the Vietname War

最全面的范文参考写作网站每个要点之后都分别有重点，尤其每次战争的背景、时间、起因、结果都需要全面了解。

三、对比分析，找出差别：在自学过程中，我对这种方法应用最多。可以说对比无处不在。例如，每个国家的政体有共同点，也有差别，差别就需要记住。因为这往往是选择题里要出的内容。

四、依据大纲，做好习题：习题既包括练习册上的题，又包括在精读课文时自己总结的题。要从出题老师的角度去分析，依据大纲会在哪一细节上命题。

例如，依据上面提到的对比分析可出这样的题：Canada?s political party system is not____?A.one party rule B.two party rule C.one and a half party rule D.no party rule.

经济方面的内容也不容忽视，容易出综合性试题，例如：New Zealand is the world leader in ____.

A.leather industry B.fish industry C.new industries D.shipbuilding industry.

又如：Which is faulse in the following kinds of saying about Britain?s agricultural?A.Farming is one of Britains most important industries.

B.It?s highly mechanized.C.People engaged in farming have increased lightely over recent years.D.it?s the source of most of the food and many of the raw materials of the country.

如果没有经过认真看书，就不能总结出类似的试题。因此，自学过程中要不断积累总结知识点，自己给自己出题，加之练习册上的习题，经这样反复演练，对付考试就易如反掌了。

一.自然资源

简答题

1.Explain your understanding of how the United States is governed according to its constitution,including its polity and the check and balance mechanism of governing.In the course of the Convention,the delegates designed a new form of government for the United States.He plan for the government was written in very simple language in a document called the Constitution of the United States.The Constitution set up a federal system with a strong central government.A federal system is one in which power is shared between a central authority and its constituent parts,with some rights reserved to each.The Constitution also called for the election of a national leader,or president.It provided that federal laws would be made only by a Congress made up of representatives elected by the people.It also provided for a national court system headed by a Supreme Court.There are three panches of the federal government: legislative panch,executive panch and judicial panch.The legislative Branch is made up of elected representatives from all of the states and is the only panch that can make federal laws,levy federal taxes,declare war or put foreign treaties into effect.It consists of a Congress that is divided into two houses: The House of Representatives and The Senate.The chief executive of the United States is the president,who,together with the vice president,is elected to a four-year term.Under a Constitutional Amendment passed in 1951,a president can be elected to only two terms.The power of the presidency are formidable,but not without limitations.And the president has the authority to appoint federal judges as vacancies occur,including members of the Supreme Court.Under the Constitution,the president is primarily responsible for foreign relations with other nations.The judicial panch is headed by the Supreme Court,which is the only court specifically created by the Constitution.Federal judges are appointed for life or voluntary retirement,and can only be removed from office through the process of impeachment and trail in the Congress.The Supreme Court today consists of a chief justice and eight associate justices.When Americans talk about their three-part national government,they often refer to what they call its system of "checks and balances".This system works in many ways to keep serious mistakes from being made by

one panch or another.But sometimes they do not work the way as they are supposed to work.Here are a example of checks and balances: If Congress proposes a law that the president thinks is unwise,the president can veto it.And the Senate must approve all treaties and confirm all appointments before they become official.In this way the Congress can prevent the president from making unwise appointments.2.How do you understand the saying:” British history has been a history of invasion.”?British history has been a history of invasions.Before the 1st century AD Britain was made up of tribal kingdoms of Celtic people.They pought the central European culture to Britain.Then in 43AD,Roman Empire invaded Britain and controlled it for slave society but also disseminated their Catholicism.However,in the 5th century,the Roman Empire rapidly waned in power and Britain was conquered by the Angles and the Saxons.In order to defend the Saxons,a great leader—King Arthur appeared.He created the "round table"to satisfy all the knights" requirement of having equal precedence.Thus it gradually formed the monarchy in Britain as a more democratic system.Whether Arthur"s a real person in the history or not,Anglo-Saxons did succeed in invading Britain and they were the forefathers of the English.In the 8th century,the Vikings from Denmark controlled the northern and eastern England.A Anglo-Saxon hero,king Alfred the Great fought against the Vikings with the truly English.And that"s why there"s a certain cultural difference between northerners and southerners in England.Later,the Normans from northern France,under the leading of William of Normandy,killed the king and William became the First of England.They imported a ruling class that French-speaking Norman aristocracy ruled Saxon and English-speaking population.In this condition,there weren"t a lot of rebellions among the English people.That directly formed an English unique character: a richly unconventional interior life hidden by an external conformity.Even today,we can still find this personality from the British people through their lifestyles.In fact,such invasion is a peaceful history of joining together the various parts of the British Isles and the power gradually transferred from the monarch to the parliament.So the constitutional monarchy has been established in Britain.3.Which foreign festival do you like best and why?Among all those foreign festivals,Christmas is my favorite.and I believe it"s also the biggest and best loved holiday in many western countries.There are plenty of reasons for me to love Christmas.In western countries,schools close for the holiday period,as do shops and offices,so people can spend time at home with their families.While Christmas has a

Christian meaning--it commemorates the birth of Jesus Christ--celepations of the Winter Solstice have taken place since ancient times and some "Christian"traditions such as decorating the house with evergreen plants like holly and ivy,or kissing under a twig of mistletoe,are actually Celtic or pagan traditions.Nowadays,Christmas is celepated by most Britons by exchanging gifts and Christmas cards,preparing holiday foods,and decorating homes and workplaces with coloured lights,Christmas trees and ornaments.There are three Christmas traditions which are particularly funny.One is the Christmas Pantomime,a comical musical play.The "panto "is usually based on a version of a traditional children"s story like Cinderella,written to include songs and jokes which can be enjoyed by adults and children.The main man character--the "principal boy"--is played by a young woman.In the days when women wore long skirts,it was considered rather naughty to see a woman appear in an outfit which revealed the shape of her legs.The main female character is a middle-aged,often ugly woman called "the Dame."The Dame is played by a man,often a famous actor or sportsman.When he appears in heavy make up,skirts and woman"s shoes,it is considered very humorous.The audience is encouraged to cheer the hero on and boo when the villain appears.Another Christmas tradition in British is to hear the Queen give her Christmas message to her realm over the television and radio.The British Queen is also the Queen of other nations,like Canada and Australia,and so her message is poadcast to her millions of subjects throughout the world.She usually talks about the year that has passed and expresses her hopes for the future.The third funny tradition,which is also celepated in countries with British heritages,is Boxing Day,which falls on the day after Christmas.Traditionally,it was on Boxing Day that people gave Christmas gifts or money to their staff or servants.Now that most British people do not have servants,this custom is no longer observed and most people cannot even tell you what one is supposed to do on Boxing Day.Some think it involves the sport of boxing and others think it has something to do with the Boxer uprising in China.However,a new Boxing Day custom has emerged,in the cities at least: shopping.Shops open up to sell off all their Christmas stock decorations,food,cards and gift items at low prices.But for most people,however,Boxing Day is a day for visiting,eating and relaxing.
