Ways to Improve Vocabulary in Just One Day
The average American has a vocabulary in the thousands. Try these tricks(诀窍) to make sure yours builds up.
Watch movies
“If you see the movie version of your favourite book you're likely to have a deeper understanding and knowledge of the words in it, ” says Neuman, professor of Childhood and Literacy Education at New York University. “Seeing and reading something on the same topic is really important. ”
Read magazines
If you want to improve vocabulary, don't just flip through your favourite magazine, really read it.
Listen to how words sound
Many people won't remember tricky words unless they come across them frequently. But if you hear a word that you think sounds interesting, you become word conscious(有意识的) and start using it yourself, says Neuman.
Join a book club
“Book clubs are a wonderful strategy(策略) to learn new words, ” says Neuman. Not only will it force you to set aside time in your day to read, but it's also a good way to discover books you might not normally be drawn to.
Listen to the radio
Those types of programs can expose you to topics you may not be familiar with. Don't miss these middle school vocabulary words adults still don't know.
Pay attention to your surroundings
Next time you walk down a busy street or take a walk in the park, try to describe what you're seeing as much as possible inside your head.
Read, read, read
Even if you don't stop to look up every single foreign word, chances are you can improve vocabulary simply by figuring out (想出) their meaning based on the context.
21. How many tricks mentioned above are through hearing
A．0. B．1.
C．2. D．3.
22．According to the passage, how will you find some special and unusual books
A．By listening to the radio.
B．By joining a book club.
C．By walking around.
D．By watching movies.
23．Where does this passage probably come from
A．Textbook. B．Science report.
C．Novel. D．Website.
B
“Smile!” I shouted, holding a yellow sign up on a busy street in Seattle. We are three thousand miles away from home on a Random Acts of Kindness and Volunteerism Road Trip. We had two aims. One was to try out our new “Smile!” signs and see how much kindness and joy we could spread(传播) in Pike Place Market. The other was to raise $80 by doing street performances, enough for gas to Portland and a small hotel room.
We weren’t sure how people would react to our signs. I nervously raised up our signs and shouted, “Hi, there!” to a young couple. They looked over and felt confused. Then they read our signs and broke into a smile. Before long, some tourists wanted to take a photo with us and some strangers stopped to ask us about our signs.
In fact, we paid so close attention to our “Smile!” project that we forgot the other aim. Before we knew it, the sun was setting, and we had no money for our trip to Portland. We sat down to watch a blind musician play the guitar while thinking about what to do. He was packing up when a passing crowd kicked down his change bowl. He stumbled(绊倒) into the crowd. We rushed to help him, but another man moved more quickly to help him.
Once the musician had his money safely returned, we ran over to meet the strange helper and said, “We just wanted to praise you for your good deed. ” He smiled, looking at our signs. “Your trip reminds me of something similar I once did when I was young,” he said, “Look! I’d like to donate(捐赠). ” We told him, “No, thanks! We are fine. We’ve collected plenty of money. ” We lied. “Please let me donate. It will make me feel like I’m a part of this adventure,” he insisted. And then the stranger opened his wallet and pulled out four $20 bills. The money was exactly what we had intended to raise that day. We were astonished. It seemed as if he had known somehow.
24. What’s the main purpose of the road trip
A. To spread kindness and joy.
B. To invite more people to join in the trip.
C. To raise money for a trip to Portland.
D. To encourage people to take happy photos.
25. How did people react to the “Smile!” signs later
A. Disappointed. B. Worried. C. Interested. D. Moved.
26. According to the last paragraph, why did the strange helper want to donate money
A. Because he felt pity for the author.
B. Because he wanted to join in the project.
C. Because he hoped to help the homeless.
D. Because he felt sorry for his impoliteness.
27. What does the underlined word “astonished” in the last paragraph most probably mean
A. Tired. B. Satisfied. C. Frightened. D. Surprised.
C

Stay low
If you can see smoke in the house, stay low to the ground as you make your way to the exit. 38 You will breathe less smoke if you stay to the ground. Smoke naturally rises, so if there is smoke while you are using your escape route, staying low means you can crawl (爬) under most of it.
What if you can’t get out right away
If you can’t get out fast because fire or smoke is stopping an escape route, you will want to yell for help. You can do this from an open window or call 911 if you have a phone with you. 39 Then, firefighters will have a hard time finding you. The sooner they find you, the sooner you both can get out.
If your clothes catch fire, what should you do
Your clothes could catch fire during a fire or by accident if you step too close to a candle. If this happens, don’t run! Instead, stop, drop to the ground, cover your face with your hands, and roll. This will cut off the air and put out the flames. 40
A. Know your way out
B. Preventing fires is in the first place!
C. An easy way to remember this is: Stop, Drop, and Roll!
D. Smoke from a fire can make it hard to see where things are.
