When you are learning English, you find it not clever to put an English sentence, word for word, into your own language. Take the sentence "How do you do " as an example. If you look up each word in the dictionary, one at a time, what is your translation It must be a wrong sentence in your own language. Languages do not just have different sounds, but they are different in many ways. It's important to learn the rules of word order in the study of English, too. If the speakers put words in a wrong order, the listener can't understand the speaker's sentence easily. Sometimes when the order of words in an English sentence is changed, the meaning of the sentence changes. But sometimes when the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn't change. Let's see the difference between the two pairs of sentences. "She only likes apples." "Only she likes apples." "I have seen the film already." "I have already seen the film."
When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit(精髓) of the language and use it as the English speakers do.
( )24.From the passage we know that when we are learning English.
A. we shouldn't put every word into our own language
B. we should look up every word in the dictionary
C. we need to put every word into our own language
D. we must read word by word
( )25.We can learn from the passage that .
A. the meaning of an English sentence always changes with the sounds of the words
B. the order of words can never change the meaning of an English sentence
C. sometimes different order of words has a different meaning
D. if the order of the words is different, the meaning of a sentence must be different
( )26."She only likes green tea" .
A. is the same as "Only she likes green tea"
B. is different from "Only she likes green tea"
C. means "She likes tea except green tea"
D. means "She doesn't like green tea"
C(2021·江苏盐城初级中学月考)
As a student, I was most afraid to answer questions in class, and I found that the students around were just like me. At the beginning of each class, when the teacher asked a question, I always lowered my head because I was afraid that the teacher saw me.
One day, in a foreign language class, Mr. Black gave us a lesson. He wanted us to be active in class, so he asked us some questions, but no one answered. "Let me tell you a story first," he said."When I came to the United States to study, the university often invited famous people to make speeches. Before the beginning of every speech, I found an interesting thing. The students around me always took a cardboard folded(折叠) in half, wrote their names in bold(黑体) with the most eye-catching color, and then placed the cardboard on the seat. So when the speaker needed the answers from the students, he could see and call a listener's name directly."
"I couldn't understand that. My classmate told me the speakers were all top people, who meant chances. When your answer was to his surprise, it meant he might give you more chances. In fact, I really saw a few students get great chances because of that."
After listening to the story, I understood that the chance would not find you itself. You must show yourself all the time so that you can find a chance on the cardboard.

D(2022·湖北武汉武珞路中学期中)
What subject do you worry about the most at school Many students worry about math. Some students can't sleep well the day before a math exam. Others may feel very nervous during the exam. But there might be a way to make the subject less stressful.
"For people who are worried about math, posture(姿势) makes a big difference," Erik Peper said. That's right. Sitting up straight can help you do better in math exams.
Scientists tested some college students. They asked them to do a simple math exam while sitting with their body leaning(倾向) forward or sitting up straight. After the test, more than half the students said the exam was easier if they were sitting up straight.
"Sitting with their body leaning forward is a defensive(防御的) posture. It can bring about bad memories in the body and brain. This can stop you from thinking clearly," Peper said.
Students who were not nervous about taking the math exam did not necessarily benefit from good posture. But they did find that working out math problems while sitting with their body leaning forward was more difficult,"scientists said.
Good posture isn't just helpful for taking math exams. Sportsmen, musicians and speakers can all benefit from good posture. When you feel stressed, you can also try to sit up straight or stand tall. It can help you feel more confident(自信的) and focus better.
( )31.What posture can make people feel less stressed during math exams
A. Sitting up straight. B. Hanging your head.
C. Lying on your back. D. Raising one hand.
( )32.What did the scientists ask the college students to do during the test
A. To do sit-ups.
B. To count numbers.
C. To think carefully.
D. To sit in different postures.
( )33.From the passage, we can infer that Eric Peper probably is .
A. a painter B. a scientist
C. an astronaut D. a musician
( )34.The fourth paragraph is written to explain .
A. why students' bad posture makes it harder to pass the math exam
B. why students' bad posture is bad for one's health
C. why some students sleep during the math exam
D. why students are nervous during the math exam
( )35.Which of the following is the best title for the passage
A. Bad posture to pass exams
