The best way to quickly improve your English is to spend at least a few minutes practicing every day. Get yourself concentrated(集中) as much as possible every time you study, and challenge yourself to listen to , read ,and even say things in English that you think might be too difficult for you.The right attitude can make the difference between failure and success. Stop thinking of yourself as someone who is learning English, and start thinking of yourself as someone who speaks English. It’s a small change, but it will make you feel more confident and help you to use the English you already know more effectively.This also means you need to start thinking in English. If you want to say the word “apple” in English, for example, right now you probably think of the word in your native language first, and then try to think of the correct word in English. Instead, try imaging a picture of an apple, and then just think the English word “apple”. Real fluency happens when you stop mentally translating conversations.When most students listen to a native English-speaker, they focus on understanding what all the words mean. This is definitely important, but there is a lot more you can learn from listening. Try listening not just to what the words mean, but to how the person says them. Notice which words the person links together in a sentence, or when they say “ya” instead of “you”. Try to remember these details the next time you speak and your English will begin to sound more natural.24. What can we do if we want to make progress in English learning ?A.

Be Attentive when Learning EnglishCAll young people dream of travelling the world. They are restless and very eager to see new sights. However, they have little idea how they would really do it if given the chance. Because their knowledge of geography is quite limited, they seldom know much about the places they wish to visit or how they would get there.Already hundreds of thousands of Chinese student tourists are visiting these places- Wuyi, Lhasa, Lijiang, Dali, Vientiane and Phnom Penh. Indeed, these students will soon be the most travelled generation in China’s long history. The World Tourist Organization predicts that a quarter of a century from now the number of Chinese tourists going abroad will be twenty times what it is today. The largest percentage of these tourists will visit Southeast Asia. Not all Chinese who travel abroad will be tourists, however. More and more youths are deciding to volunteer their skills in this region; much like their peers in the Peace Corps and VSO.Critical thinking skills required include planning for a trip and solving problems after the trip has begun. The focus is on how to read an atlas (地图集) to make travel plans and how to find ways of travelling. An atlas offers a wealth of information about geography and is o ne way to increase students’ awareness of their global environment. Use of an atlas especially addresses the needs of students with different visual and spatial (空间的) learning styles.28.The main idea of the first paragraph is_______A. all young people wish to travel around the worldB. all young people like to learn the knowledge of geographyC. all young people like travelling but their knowledge of geography is quite limitedD all young people are aware of the places they are going to29. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The number of Chinese tourists going abroad will be twenty times what it is todayin about 25 years.B The number of Chinese tourists going abroad will be twenty times what it is todayin about 10 yearsC. Southeast Asia will become the most popular place in the world.D Young people will be addicted to Internet travelling.30.One way to increase students 'awareness of their global environment is for them to_____A. watch TVB. listen to radio newsC. read an atlasD. plan a trip31. The underline phrase “a wealth of ”can be replaces by “_____________”.A.a number ofB. a great manyC. a great many ofD. a great deal ofDDodder(菟丝子) is an unusual and unwanted plant that attacks(攻击) other plants. Except for its flowers, the plant looks like noodles. It's almost leafless, hanging down from the top of other plants that dodder needs to stay alive. Dodder does not produce its own food. Instead, it steals it from other plants. It feeds on juices from the plant it is wrapped (缠绕) around, often making its host very weak or even killing it.Dodder can find other plants by their smell. When a young dodder plant starts growing, it follows the smell of plants it prefers, like tomato plants, potato plants, or other farm crops.Unlike most plants that usually grow in the direction of light or warmth, a dodder plant will grow in the direction of, for example, the smell of tomatoes if a tomato happens to be growing nearby.However, a young dodder plant must find a host plant quickly. If it cannot notice the smell of a possible host within a few days, it will dry up and disappear-- even if there is plenty of water around.Once it finds a host, the young dodder plant will attach itself to it and start grow faster. At that point, the dodder plant will drop its root. It no longer needs its root once it is attached to the host and wrapped around it .Dodder is thus a difficult weed(杂草)to manage and a real headache for farmers. When it does get out of hand, dodder can greatly reduce a farmer's crop production or even destroy crops completely, Therefore, farmers in warm parts of the world often check to make sure no unwanted dodder seeds have mixed their crop seeds. This is a good way to stop dodder plants from finding their way into a crop field.32. What makes dodder special?A. Its long life.B. Its rich juice.C. Its living habit. D Its unusual flower33. What causes dodder to grow in a certain direction?A. Smell.B. Light.C. Water.D. Temperature.34. What will happen to a dodder plant with no other kinds of plants around?A. It will soon die.B. It will grow deeper rootsC. It will attract some plants from elsewhereD. It will attach itself to another dodder plan35. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to?A. The root.B. The dodder. C The host. D. The weed.第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
