All English learners want to improve their English, but as you know, it can be difficult! To learn English well, you need to work on many areas. Reading is one of them. Reading is something you can do to help you learn English on your own. When reading, take a dictionary with you to look up new words and then write them down in a notebook. Try to use these new
words in conversations. Newspapers are good for higher level students. But for lower level students, children’s stories or books written in fun English are a good choice.

How can you find something wonderful to read The Internet is full of what you can read.

Most people are not very good at remembering abstract (抽象的) information like numbers. But a few people are good at remembering it because they have a good memory. A good memory can greatly help them in their daily life.
Some people are not good at remembering people’s names. One easy way to help remember a person’s name is to look at him and say his name. It seems strange, but it works.
Try memorizing the order of a deck (副) of cards. This may seem like a meaningless task, but it will help you find the best way to remember things.
Take out many things. Look at them for 30 seconds. Take them away and write down all the things you can remember. Practising doing this many times can help you remember things well.
Memorize your favourite songs or poems until you can sing or say them to yourself without any help. Try to do this often. Besides, there are also some games that can help you improve your memory.

下面的材料A~F分别介绍了六种不同的方法，请根据五位同学在英语学习中遇到的困难，帮助他们选择合适的信息，并将其标号填入题前括号内。
A. Good reading habits are very important.
First, you have to find out the reason why you can’t read fast like others. Do you always read in a right way that is the same as you are reading your mother language？
B. Join an English club.
You can find one in your school or your city. It’s a good chance for the English lovers to practice their spoken English and share their experience in learning English.
C. Take notes.
It’s very important to have a good habit in English class, such as taking a lot of grammar notes, even though the teacher doesn’t write them down on the blackboard. Try to understand the grammar notes but not just copy them, and then try to write your own sentences, using the grammar you are learning.
D. Read more English words.
If you read more English books, magazines or newspapers, you will find it easier to learn the words.
E. Find a pen friend.
You can make pen friends with people who speak English so that you can write letters in English often. A pen friend may help you improve your writing skills.

With the development of science, more and more students don’t like taking notes by hand. They use digital cameras to take notes in class. They think it is easier to take pictures of what their teachers write on the blackboard or record what their teachers say in class. Students might think there are too many notes to take. They are trying to find ways to make things easier, so they use digital cameras. In fact, students are very clever because they make good use of technology.
But do digital cameras really make taking notes easier
Not really. You have a lot of things to do before you read notes from digital cameras. To begin with, you have to find a computer. Then you need to copy the pictures into the computer. Next, you have to find a printer to print the pictures. Besides, you can’t hear the sound from digital cameras clearly because there is usually a lot of noise. You will have to listen to it slowly many times before you understand everything.
In fact, taking notes by hand is really the most effective way. It can help you remember and understand what you are learning. In order to save time, you can choose the most important things or the things you don’t understand to write down. You don’t have to write down everything.
( )1. Why do more and more students take notes with digital cameras but not by hand
A. Because they want to take the right notes.
B. Because their teachers want them to do so.
C. Because they want to make taking notes easier.
D. Because they always want to try new things.
C
( )2. What is the correct order of the following things before students read the notes from their digital cameras
a. print the pictures b. find a computer
c. copy the pictures into the computer d. take pictures
b-c-d-a
B. b-c-a-d
C. d-a-b-c
D. d-b-c-a

( )3. What does the underlined word “it” in the third paragraph refer to in the article
The sound from digital cameras.
B. The noise.
C. The digital camera.
D. The note.
A
( )4. What does the writer think is the best way to take notes
A．By taking pictures of what teachers write on the blackboard in class.
B．By recording what teachers say in class.
C．By using a computer.
D．By taking notes with your hand.
D
( )5. Which of the following is TRUE according to the article
A．You shouldn’t be afraid to write down everything.
B．To save time, you should not take notes but memorize what your teachers say.
C．You should write down all the words that your teachers write on the blackboard.

As we all know, having a great memory is important. It can help you succeed in school, in your job, and in life. It also can help you learn faster and better. We all know that fast learners are always in demand. If you have a great memory, I’m sure you can succeed more easily.
If you are willing to make a few changes in your life, you should improve your memory first. Here I will explain some ways that can help you improve your memory.
You can not only learn memory skills on our website, but also learn how to improve your memory through diet, exercise, sleep and other ways.
I think that memory improvement can be achieved in two ways: improving the health of your brain and using memory skills. Many people think they may be difficult. In fact, they are easier to do than you might think, but you have to work hard by yourself.
Memory improvement needs time and effort on your part. You can’t improve your memory if you don’t work on it. Of course, I believe that a more powerful brain is well worth the effort!
Here are a few tips on memory improvement. I will elaborate(详细说明) further in the following part.
( )1. What does the underlined word “demand” mean
Public.
B. Success.
C. Mind.
D. Need.
D
( )2. Which of the following are the two ways of memory improvement mentioned in the passage
①Using memory skills.
②Using memory notes.
③Improving the health of your heart.
④Improving the health of your brain.
A. ①② B. ①④ C. ②③ D. ③④
B
( )3. Which of the following is needed on your part to improve memory
Money.

D. Water.

A good memory is often seen as something that comes naturally, while a bad memory as something that cannot be changed. In fact, there is a lot that you can do to improve your memory. Here are some tips for you.
◆1._______
We all remember the things we are interested in, and always forget the ones that bore us. This explains the reason why schoolboys remember football results easily but struggle (挣扎) with dates from their history lessons! Develop an active interest in what you want to remember. 2._______

F
◆ Repeat things in chunks (块).
Repeating things in chunks is the best way to remember things for a short time, for example, remembering a phone number for a few seconds. 3._______ The following numbers would be impossible for most of us to remember: 1492178919318483. But look at them in “groups” or “chunks” repeatedly, and it becomes much easier: 1492 1789 1931 8483.
E
◆Make up a story.
To remember long lists, try making up a story which includes all the things you want to remember. In experiments, people were asked to remember up to 120 words in this way. When they were tested later, they could remember about 90% of them. 4._______
C
◆Take physical exercise.
Physical exercise is important for your memory because it can increase your heart rate (心率) and send more oxygen (氧气) to your brain. That will make your memory work better. 5._______ As we know, too much pressure is very bad for our memory.
B
A. Develop an interest in what you want to memorize.
B. Exercise can also help to relieve(缓解) stress.
C. The test result was really amazing!
D. Another way to improve memory is to get enough rest.
E. Grouping numbers may help you to remember them.
F. One way to make yourself more interested is to ask questions!

Dear Kevin,
I’m happy to hear from you. In your letter, you said you have difficulty memorizing Chinese poems. Don’t worry. Learning Chinese poems can be fun, but you need a way to help you remember them. Here are some of my suggestions.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________
______________________________________________________
______________________________________________________
______________________________________________________
______________________________________________________
The very first and most important way to memorize Chinese poems is to understand what the poems are about. Try to understand each and every word between the lines. Once you have a deep understanding of a poem, you can remember it very well and remember it for a long time. The second suggestion is to imagine a picture of the poem in your mind, read it aloud from time to time and review it every week. In this way, you are sure to memorize it well.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Where there is a will, there is a way. I hope you will make big progress in learning Chinese poems.
Best wishes,

We all know that there are two versions（形式） of written Chinese characters. People in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan use traditional characters, but in mainland China we write with simplified ones.
However, at this year’s Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), the well-known film director Feng Xiaogang suggested that schools should teach students 50 to 200 of the most meaningful traditional Chinese characters.
“It is not to get rid of simplified characters, but to let the children know about the most important part of Chinese traditional culture,” said Feng.
Take two simplified characters as an example, “亲” (meaning dear, or relatives) and “爱” (meaning love). The traditional version for “亲” is “親”, which has an extra “見” meaning “see”; while “爱” is written as “愛” in the traditional way, which has an extra “心” meaning “heart”.
“Love needs ‘heart’ and relatives need to ‘see’ each other,” Feng said. “The simplified versions of these characters have lost their human touch.”
“Learning traditional Chinese characters will also help people better understand Chinese historical works written in traditional characters,” said Lu Bo, editor-in-chief of Macao Daily News.
However, many people think it not necessary to do so. They say simplified characters are easier to learn and write, and people have got used to them.
“Traditional Chinese characters are too hard for beginners and students who don’t have the language environment outside the classroom,” Zhang Jian, a Guangzhou primary school teacher, told Yangcheng Evening News.
“Moreover, simplified characters come from traditional ones, which means they can also keep and promote traditional culture,” said Chinese character expert Dang Huaixing.

People in Hong Kong.
B. People in Macao.
C. People in Taiwan.
D. People in Changsha.

( )2. What is the relationship between “亲” and “親”
A. “亲” is the traditional version of “親”.
B. “親” is the traditional version of “亲”.
C. “亲” is the English version of “親”.
D. “亲” is the Chinese version of “親”.
B
( )3. Which of the following is TURE according to Feng Xiaogang
A. Schools should teach students 50 to 200 of the most meaningful simplified Chinese characters.
B. To let the children know about the most important part of Chinese traditional culture, we should let them learn some traditional Chinese characters.
C. All the simplified Chinese characters have lost their human touch.
D. Traditional Chinese characters are too hard for beginners and students who don’t have the language environment outside the classroom.

Feng Xiaogang and Lu Bo.
B. Lu Bo and Dang Huaixing.
