(2022春·山东烟台·八年级统考期中)Can you swim Do you like swimming Yes Well,how can you learn to swim I think the best way is to go into the water and learn.I'm afraid you'll never learn to swim just by reading books about swimming or looking at others swimming.It's the same with the English study.We must
practice,practice and practice.
Listening and speaking are very important for beginners.The children in English-speaking countries first listen to others.Then they try to learn to speak.We can listen to English programs on the radio.You may just
understand some words.It doesn't matter.Just be relaxed,try to catch every word.
Somebody may be a good listener.But he dare not speak.He's afraid of making mistakes.You know we
sometimes make mistakes when we speak Chinese.Don't be afraid.We must be brave.If you really want to learn English well,you must try to speak with everyone as long as he knows English,whether you know him or not is not important.When there's nobody to talk with,you can talk to yourself in English.It's interesting and also a good way to practice your spoken English.Remember,the more you speak,the fewer mistakes you'll make. Reading and writing are more important for senior school students.First we must choose the books we're
interested in.A lot of reading will improve your language sense.This is the most important.
Keep English diaries.We can also write English articles.You may even post them to English magazines.
Don't be afraid of failure.Failure is the mother of success.
It's easier said than done.Well,let's do more practice from now on.I'm sure you'll learn English well in this
way.

(2023春·浙江绍兴·八年级校联考阶段练习)Language students often think they have memory problems. They worry because they can't remember words.In fact,the problem usually isn't with their memory.The
problem is with how they study.
To remember words better,you need to understand how memory works.There are two kinds of memory: short term and long term.When you see,hear,or read something,it goes first into short-term memory.But short-term memory lasts for only a few seconds.You will only remember something longer if it goes into long-term memory.Your long term memory is like a very big library with many,many books.And like a library it's organized(有条理的).When you put away a book—or memory—you can't just leave it anywhere.You have
to choose a place where you can find it again.
How can you do this with vocabulary The answer is to work with the word and think about the word in new ways.You can do this by writing new sentences that include it.Even better,you can invent a little story about the word,with people or places that you know.Another way is to make a picture in your mind with the word.For example,if the word is "height",you can think of the tallest person you know and try to guess his or her height.
All of these activities are good ways to think about words.They make the meaning of words stronger in your
long-term memory.And they give a way to find a word when you need it.
15.In the writer's opinion,students can't remember words because
A.they are too worried B.they don't use a proper way
C.they have memory problems D.they don't like to study
16.The underlined words "long-term"means in Chinese.
A. 长的学期 B. 长期的 C. 长的术语 D. 长的条款
17.According to the passage,you can memorize vocabulary by
A.reading as often as possible B.writing emails to the people you know
C.taking many photos about them D.making pictures in your mind with the words
18.This passage mainly tells us about
A.how to improve ways to remember words B.language students’problems in study
C.short term and long term memory D.how to make the meaning of words stronger
(2022春·河南洛阳·八年级统考期中)When you are learning a language,listening,speaking,reading and writing are important.When you read,you can not only learn some new words,but also know how to use them.
Reading a lot can help you write better.How can you improve your reading skills Here is some advice for you.
First,try to read at the right level.If the book is too difficult for you,you may lose interest soon.
Second,try to make your vocabulary(词汇量)larger.If you meet some new words on a page,don't use a dictionary.Try to guess what they mean as you read.After you finish reading,look them up in the dictionary.
Then write them down in your notebook and remember them later.
Third,make full use of your free time.Reading for a short time once a day is better than just reading for two hours at the weekend.For example,you can read before you go to bed,on your way home,or even when you are
waiting for a subway.If you don't take a book with you,reading on your mobile phone is just OK.
Last,read some articles that interest you.Choose a newspaper,a book or a magazine that you like.There
must be something interesting in it.It will be easy for you to understand.
