II.阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分）
A
There are about fifteen hundred languages in the world. But only a few of them are very important. English is one of them. Many, many people use it, not only in England and the USA, but also in other parts of the world. About 200,000,000 people speak it as their own language. It is difficult to say how many people are learning it as a foreign language. Many millions of people are trying to do so. Is it easy or difficult to learn English? Different people may have different answers. Have you ever noticed ads(广告) of this kind in the newspapers or magazines? “Learn English in six weeks, or give your money back…” “Easy and funny…” “Our records and tapes help you master English in a month”. Of course, it never happened quite like that.
The only language that seems easy to learn is the mother tongue. We should remember that we all learned our own language well when we were children. If we could learn English in the same way, it would not seem so difficult. Think of what a small child does. He listens to what people say. He tries what he hears.
So it is hard to say that learning English is easy. We must do a lot of practice. And practice needs great efforts and takes much time. Good teachers, record, tapes, books, and dictionaries will be helpful, but they cannot do the student’s work for him.
21. How many languages are very important in the world?
A. A few B. Few C. About 1500 D. Many
22. If we want to learn English well, what shall we do?
A. We should study it without any help.
B. We must do a lot of practice.
C. We need to get much money back.
D. We must live in England or America.
23. How does the writer like the ads in the newspapers or magazines?
A. He thinks the ads very expensive.
B. He thinks the ads are true.
C. It never happened quite like what the ads said.
D. He believes” Learn English in six weeks, or give your money back”.
24. Which language is easy to learn?
A. English B. Chinese
C. Japanese D. The mother language
25. Which countries use English as the mother tongue?
A. China and France B. Japan and Italy
C. England the America D. Germany and France
B
Many students feel it is difficult to remember new words when they begin to study English. Now I will give you some advice.
Do not waste time in learning the word list. It is not a good way to remember new words. The best way to learn new words is through listening. You can find radio programmes or TV programmes. And listen to them carefully. When you listen to the conversations, you will learn the pronunciation easily. Of course, it is not enough; you have to remember their spellings.
Some people find that they can learn the names of everyday objects such as box, bottle, cup, desk and so on, in the following way. They write the names of things on paper, and then they read the words on the paper. Try this and see if this way works for you. If it does not work, then go on to practise listening to the conversations.
根据短文内容，判断正（T）误（F）。
26. To remember new words is not easy for many students.
27. Learning the word list is a good way to remember new words.
28. The best way to learn new words is to listen to radio and TV programmes.
29. Listening to radio and TV is enough.
30. If you write the names of things on paper, it will help you learn new words.
C
Some children wish to be writers some day. They want to write stories or books for people to read. That’s good! It’s good to write something for people t read! But they should know that they need to be good readers first before they are really good writers. They should read a lot of books, instead of watching TV and spending a lot of time playing games when they are free.
There is more fun in reading, you want to look for more books to read.
Before you decide to be a good writer, you’d better say to yourself, “I must read more and more!”
