The Best Language Learning Apps for 2023
We test all the major apps for learning a language and here are our top picks for 2023.
Rype
Rype is an online marketplace where language students find teachers and then sign up for low-cost-courses. Because Rype offers tutoring and not classes, it’s best for language learners who are not true beginners. Intermediate level speakers and higher will get the most out of Rype.
Rosetta Stone
It is one of the best software programs for learning a language, especially for beginners. It does well in introducing new words and basic grammar in a way that’s interesting. Rosetta Stone also does an excellent job of helping you to learn and study for about 30 minutes per day with its wonderfully clear and structured lessons.
Duolingo
Duolingo is really great for all language students. There is no better free language learning app than Duolingo. What makes it so good With the help of the strong content and the good design, you can pick up and practice for a few minutes per day or sit down for longer study sessions.
Yabla
Unlike most other language learning apps and services Yabla takes a video-first method. Diving into Yabla’s material is more like going to YouTube than opening a textbook. You learn by watching videos, some of which are in the style of a language learning lesson but many others are just interesting content—music videos, cooking segments, travel shows—in the language you’re learning.
1. Which of the four apps suits best for beginners
A. Rype. B. Rosetta Stone. C. Duolingo. D. Yabla.
2. What is special about Yabla
A. It has cheap classes. B. It is a free language app.

3. Where is this text probably taken from

On Sunday, Tigst Assefa of Ethiopia shocked the running world by breaking the women’s world record for the marathon by over two minutes. Assefa finished the Berlin Marathon in just 2 hours, 11 minutes, and 53 seconds.
But Assefa’s record was far beyond what most people expected. After all, it was only her third time running a marathon.
“I wanted to break the marathon world record,” she said, “But I couldn’t imagine that it would result in a time under 2:12.”
When Assefa was younger, she started by running short races, called sprints. Then she became a middle-distance runner, running the 800 meters (half mile) race. Her best time in the 800 meters was 1 minute and 59 seconds.
Last March she ran her first marathon. Then last September, she entered the Berlin Marathon. She won, and set a new women’s record for the course, finishing in 2:15:37.
This year, she ran almost four minutes faster than she did last year. In both races, Assefa ran faster in the second half of the race than she did in the first half.
Her time of 2:11:53 was over two minutes faster than the old women’s record (2:14:04), which was set in Chicago in 2019 by Brigid Kosgei of Kenya.
When she finished the race, Assefa kneeled down and kissed the pavement before raising her arms in victory.
Though Assefa made it look easy, she said winning the race “…was the result of hard work.” Assefa was coached by Gemedu Dedefo, who has helped train many Ethiopian star runners.
4. What is Assefa’s latest record for the marathon
A. 2:11:53. B. 2:14:04. C. 2:15:37. D. 1:59:00.
5. What does Assefa think of her victory
A. It is what she expected. B. It is a piece of cake for her.
C. It is due to great effort. D. It is because of her coach.
6. Which word best describes Tigst Assefa as a runner
A. Talented. B. Friendly. C. Humorous. D. Warm-hearted.
7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. Dedefo Helps to Train Many Star Runners
B. Kosgei Holds the Women’s Marathon Record
C. Assefa Sets a Good Example to Other Runners
D. Assefa Breaks the Women’s Marathon Record
C
On Monday, people across Kenya took part in the country’s first national tree-planting holiday. The holiday was created by Kenya’s president, William Ruto, to encourage people to plant trees as part of a plan to fight the climate crisis (危机).
Kenya is famous for its beautiful forests and wildlife. But large areas of Kenya’s forests have been cut down, either for the wood, to clear the land for farming, or both. And those trees would normally help take in carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas that’s a major cause of the climate crisis.
In early November, to help get Kenya’s great tree-planting effort started, the government declared November 13 a holiday — National Tree Growing Day. To prepare for the day, the government got 150 million seedlings ready for planting.
The government created a special app to help organize the tree planting. The app is called JazaMiti, which means “fill with trees” in Swahili. The app helps people collect trees, find places to plant, and record their efforts. The app will also help the government track how many trees have been planted in different areas around the country.
People all over Kenya turned out in large numbers to take part in the holiday. Elizabeth Wathuti, who works to protect the environment, was very happy about the support that Kenyans showed for tree planting. But she pointed out that it would be very important to continue to take care of the trees as they grow. “Tree planting is just the beginning,” she said.
Many people were very excited about the tree-planting holiday. Some hope that it will happen every year.
8 Why do people cut down trees in Kenya
A. To reduce the greenhouse gas. B. To get more land for water.
C. To help with the climate crisis. D. To get more farm land or wood.
9. What does the underlined word “seedlings” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Young trees. B. Bottles of water.
C. Different rules. D. Planting apps.
10. How can the app JazaMiti help with the tree planting
A. By showing the places to plant. B. By watering the trees around.
C. By raising money for trees. D. By recording the number of people.
11. What does Wathuti seem to express
A. The government should take care of the trees.
B. There’s still a long way to go for tree planting.
C. Protecting the environment is of less importance.
D. The tree-planting holiday should be held every year.
D
A three-year nationwide action plan to better protect ancient covered bridges (廊桥) started on Monday in Taishun county, Wenzhou city in East China’s Zhejiang province.
Covered bridges not only serve as means of transportation and communication. They are also acting as places to rest and for leisurely gatherings, sites for making offerings and even market areas for trading.
“Covered bridges are an important part of traditional Chinese culture, with a long history and rich diversity,” said Huang Zi, a lead expert at the Zhejiang Ancient Architecture Design and Research Institute.
But their largely wooden structures and the variety of roles they play make them easier to be damaged. In 2016, three ancient covered bridges in Taishun were destroyed by heavy rains during a typhoon. In 2020, a covered bridge first built during the Song Dynasty (960-1279) and most recently rebuilt in the 18th century in Wuyuan county, Jiangxi province, was destroyed by floodwaters. Not long ago, a 900-year-old covered bridge in Pingnan county, Fujian province, one of the longest in China, fell down in a fire at night in early August.
Protective measures have already been put in place in areas with ancient covered bridges. It will be a long-term process, said Huang, and greater efforts should be made to keep that sustainable (可持续的). One key, according to Huang, is to involve people’s concerns, needs and values in protecting the covered bridges.
“More preservation knowledge should be communicated to people through related projects,” he said.
More relevantly, the protection of covered bridges should be combined with tourism. “When people come to visit, walk and have fun there, those old covered bridges can truly show their energy and liveliness,” he said.
12. What is paragraph 2 mainly about
A. Different means of transportation. B. The roles of covered bridges.
C. Places to communicate and rest. D. Trading areas of covered bridges.
13. How does the author develop paragraph 4
A. By making comparisons. B. By listing numbers.
C. By giving examples. D. By telling stories.
14. What is the key factor to sustainable protection according to Huang
A. Projects to build different bridges.
B. Knowledge about the bridge history.
C. Public attention and participation.
D. Communication about different values.
15. What can we infer about the covered bridges according to the passage
A. They were largely made of hard stones.
B. The protective measures were not enough.
C. The covered bridges in Taishun fell down in a fire.
D. Tourism will do harm to their energy and liveliness.

Sometimes a stranger can greatly improve our day. A pleasant meeting with a stranger can comfort us when we were in trouble.
Once, I experienced a severe turbulence (气流颠簸) on the flight to Boston. Because of that, I was extremely scared. Anxiety and fear filled my heart. All the people on the flight seemed nervous, except my seatmate, who looked friendly and calm. Then, I turned to the woman next to me and said, “Hey, would you mind chatting with me for a few minutes I’m really nervous.”
“Sure. My name is Sue,” the woman replied, smiling warmly. “What brings you to Boston ” I started to explain that I was on a business trip. Then the plane shook violently, and suddenly I said, “I might need to hold your hand too.” Sue took my hand in both of hers, patted it, and held on tight.
When Sue Pernick took my hand on that scary flight to Boston, I almost wept (哭泣) with comfort. She was so calm and made me less frightened—“Yep, this is a little trouble, but we’ll be on the ground safely soon,” she told me—that I asked her what she did for a living. “I’m a retired P.E. teacher and I coached women’s volleyball,” she said. Immediately, I could see what an awesome coach she must have been.
Sue and I talked-about our families, our vacations, our love of the ocean—until the plane finally landed. Then the businessman sitting on the other side of her, who’d been silent the entire flight, remarked that he’d enjoyed our conversation. “It cleared my fear out,” he said. “I was scared too. I wanted to hold Sue’s hand!” When we said goodbye, I gave Sue a big hug and my e-mail address.

On Monday, people across Kenya took part in the country’s first national tree-planting holiday. The holiday was created by Kenya’s president, William Ruto, to encourage people to plant trees as part of a plan to fight the climate crisis (危机).
Kenya is famous for its beautiful forests and wildlife. But large areas of Kenya’s forests have been cut down, either for the wood, to clear the land for farming, or both. And those trees would normally help take in carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas that’s a major cause of the climate crisis.
In early November, to help get Kenya’s great tree-planting effort started, the government declared November 13 a holiday — National Tree Growing Day. To prepare for the day, the government got 150 million seedlings ready for planting.
The government created a special app to help organize the tree planting. The app is called JazaMiti, which means “fill with trees” in Swahili. The app helps people collect trees, find places to plant, and record their efforts. The app will also help the government track how many trees have been planted in different areas around the country.
People all over Kenya turned out in large numbers to take part in the holiday. Elizabeth Wathuti, who works to protect the environment, was very happy about the support that Kenyans showed for tree planting. But she pointed out that it would be very important to continue to take care of the trees as they grow. “Tree planting is just the beginning,” she said.
Many people were very excited about the tree-planting holiday. Some hope that it will happen every year.
8. Why do people cut down trees in Kenya
A. To reduce the greenhouse gas. B. To get more land for water.
C. To help with the climate crisis. D. To get more farm land or wood.
9. What does the underlined word “seedlings” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Young trees. B. Bottles of water.
C. Different rules. D. Planting apps.
10. How can the app JazaMiti help with the tree planting
A. By showing the places to plant. B. By watering the trees around.
C. By raising money for trees. D. By recording the number of people.
11. What does Wathuti seem to express
A. The government should take care of the trees.
B. There’s still a long way to go for tree planting.
C. Protecting the environment is of less importance.
D. The tree-planting holiday should be held every year.
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了肯尼亚举办了首个国家植树节，旨在鼓励人们种植树木以应对气候危机。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“But large areas of Kenya’s forests have been cut down, either for the wood, to clear the land for farming, or both.(但是肯尼亚的大片森林已经被砍伐，要么是为了木材，要么是为了开垦耕地，或者两者兼而有之)”可知，肯尼亚人砍伐树木以获得更多的农田或木材。故选D项。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“To prepare for the day, the government got 150 million seedlings ready for planting.(为了迎接这一天，政府准备了1.5亿seedlings种植)”中“planting”可推知，政府准备的是要种植的“小树苗”，划线词seedlings与young trees同义。故选A项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“The app helps people collect trees, find places to plant, and record their efforts. The app will also help the government track how many trees have been planted in different areas around the country.(该应用程序帮助人们收集树木，寻找种植地点，并记录他们的努力。该应用程序还将帮助政府跟踪全国不同地区种植的树木数量)”可知，应用程序JazaMiti能帮助人们找到种植的地方。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“Elizabeth Wathuti, who works to protect the environment, was very happy about the support that Kenyans showed for tree planting. But she pointed out that it would be very important to continue to take care of the trees as they grow. “Tree planting is just the beginning,” she said.(致力于环境保护的Elizabeth Wathuti对肯尼亚人对植树的支持感到非常高兴。但她指出，随着树木的生长，继续照顾它们是非常重要的。“种树只是一个开始，”她说)”可推知，Wathuti想要表达的是种树只是一个开始，后面还有很长的路要走。故选B项。

A three-year nationwide action plan to better protect ancient covered bridges (廊桥) started on Monday in Taishun county, Wenzhou city in East China’s Zhejiang province.
Covered bridges not only serve as means of transportation and communication. They are also acting as places to rest and for leisurely gatherings sites for making offerings and even market areas for trading.
“Covered bridges are an important part of traditional Chinese culture, with a long history and rich diversity,” said Huang Zi, a lead expert at the Zhejiang Ancient Architecture Design and Research Institute.
But their largely wooden structures and the variety of roles they play make them easier to be damaged. In 2016, three ancient covered bridges in Taishun were destroyed by heavy rains during a typhoon. In 2020, a covered bridge first built during the Song Dynasty (960-1279) and most recently rebuilt in the 18th century in Wuyuan county, Jiangxi province, was destroyed by floodwaters. Not long ago, a 900-year-old covered bridge in Pingnan county, Fujian province, one of the longest in China, fell down in a fire at night in early August.
Protective measures have already been put in place in areas with ancient covered bridges. It will be a long-term process, said Huang, and greater efforts should be made to keep that sustainable (可持续的). One key, according to Huang, is to involve people’s concerns, needs and values in protecting the covered bridges.
“More preservation knowledge should be communicated to people through related projects,” he said.
More relevantly, the protection of covered bridges should be combined with tourism. “When people come to visit, walk and have fun there, those old covered bridges can truly show their energy and liveliness,” he said.
12. What is paragraph 2 mainly about
A. Different means of transportation. B. The roles of covered bridges.
C. Places to communicate and rest. D. Trading areas of covered bridges.
13. How does the author develop paragraph 4
A. By making comparisons. B. By listing numbers.
C. By giving examples. D. By telling stories.
14. What is the key factor to sustainable protection according to Huang
A. Projects to build different bridges.
B. Knowledge about the bridge history.
C. Public attention and participation.
D. Communication about different values.
15. What can we infer about the covered bridges according to the passage
A. They were largely made of hard stones.
B. The protective measures were not enough.
C. The covered bridges in Taishun fell down in a fire.
D. Tourism will do harm to their energy and liveliness.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了廊桥的现状、作用、保护措施等。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。由文章第二段“Covered bridges not only serve as means of transportation and communication. They are also acting as places to rest and for leisurely gatherings, sites for making offerings and even market areas for trading. (廊桥不仅是交通和通讯的工具。它们还可以作为休息和休闲聚会的场所，供物的场所，甚至是交易的市场区域。)”可知，第二段的主要描写廊桥的作用。故选B。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第四段“But their largely wooden structures and the variety of roles they play make them easier to be damaged. In 2016, three ancient covered bridges in Taishun were destroyed by heavy rains during a typhoon. In 2020, a covered bridge first built during the Song Dynasty (960-1279) and most recently rebuilt in the 18th century in Wuyuan county, Jiangxi province, was destroyed by floodwaters. Not long ago, a 900-year-old covered bridge in Pingnan county, Fujian province, one of the longest in China, fell down in a fire at night in early August. (但是它们的大部分木质结构和它们扮演的各种角色使它们更容易被破坏。2016年，泰顺的三座古廊桥被台风期间的暴雨摧毁。2020年，江西省婺源县一座建于宋朝(960-1279)、最近于18世纪重建的廊桥被洪水摧毁。不久前，8月初的一个晚上，中国最长的廊桥之一、福建省平南县一座有着900年历史的廊桥在一场大火中倒塌。)”可知，通过举例展开第四段，说明它们更容易被破坏。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第五段中“One key, according to Huang, is to involve people’s concerns, needs and values in protecting the covered bridges. (黄教授认为，保护廊桥的关键在于让人们的关注点、需求和价值观都参与进来。)”可知，黄认为，可持续保护的关键因素是公众关注和参与。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第五段中“It will be a long-term process, said Huang, and greater efforts should be made to keep that sustainable (可持续的). (黄说，这将是一个长期的过程，需要付出更大的努力来保持可持续发展。)”和倒数第二段““More preservation knowledge should be communicated to people through related projects,” he said. (他说:“应该通过相关项目向人们传播更多的保护知识。”)”可知，对于廊桥的保护措施还不够。故选B。

【42题详解】
考查冠词。句意：直到今天，来自世界各地的游客都来敦煌看洞穴，洛杉矶的盖蒂博物馆甚至还复制了一份洞穴和绘画的副本，供美国人欣赏。all over the world是固定短语，意为“全世界”。故填the。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：通过在互联网上分享如此多的数码照片，该组织希望能促进全世界对中国古代历史、文化和传统的更广泛兴趣。作介词后宾语，用动名词sharing。故填sharing。
【44题详解】
考查连词。句意：通过在互联网上分享如此多的数码照片，该组织希望能促进全世界对中国古代历史、文化和传统的更广泛兴趣。根据句意，名词history、culture和traditions之间是并列关系，用连词and连接。故填and。
【45题详解】

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Sometimes a stranger can greatly improve our day. A pleasant meeting with a stranger can comfort us when we were in trouble.
Once, I experienced a severe turbulence (气流颠簸) on the flight to Boston. Because of that, I was extremely scared. Anxiety and fear filled my heart. All the people on the flight seemed nervous, except my seatmate, who looked friendly and calm. Then, I turned to the woman next to me and said, “Hey, would you mind chatting with me for a few minutes I’m really nervous.”
“Sure. My name is Sue,” the woman replied, smiling warmly. “What brings you to Boston ” I started to explain that I was on a business trip. Then the plane shook violently, and suddenly I said, “I might need to hold your hand too.” Sue took my hand in both of hers, patted it, and held on tight.
When Sue Pernick took my hand on that scary flight to Boston, I almost wept (哭泣) with comfort. She was so calm and made me less frightened—“Yep, this is a little trouble, but we’ll be on the ground safely soon,” she told me—that I asked her what she did for a living. “I’m a retired P.E. teacher and I coached women’s volleyball,” she said. Immediately, I could see what an awesome coach she must have been.
Sue and I talked-about our families, our vacations, our love of the ocean—until the plane finally landed. Then the businessman sitting on the other side of her, who’d been silent the entire flight, remarked that he’d enjoyed our conversation. “It cleared my fear out,” he said. “I was scared too. I wanted to hold Sue’s hand!” When we said goodbye, I gave Sue a big hug and my e-mail address.

【答案】
A few days later, I received an e-mail. “I have to admit that I was just as scared as you were but did not say it.” Sue wrote. “I just held your hand as hard as I could. Thank you for helping me through this very scary situation.” She added that when she told her friends about our conversation, they teased her because they know she loves to talk. I told my friends about Sue too. I explained how kind she was to me, and what I learned: It’s OK to ask for help from a stranger if you need it.
I decided to be a person like Sue. I was a waitress in a restaurant, where many customers were people in the community nearby. Some of them were old people, who lived alone. From then on, I viewed them as my families. When they came for meals, I would provide them with warm greetings and serve them kindly. The customers were grateful for my good service. More and more people came to my restaurant. I thanked Sue for my change.
