Try to say everything you see in English, only English. Later, in a conversation, the picture of a real table will directly remind you of the word “table”.
Step 2: Think in sentences
This step needs more time and effort. But it’s worth it. 9 , such as “It’s a table. ”“I have a table. ”“The table is blue. ”, etc. Just do it step by step and day by day. Don’t jump to long sentences if you’re a beginner. Otherwise, you’ll be let down.

(22-23高一下·河南郑州·期末)Whether you want to be a leader, coach or businessman, knowing how to give advice will help you. Here are some useful ways for you to refer to.
Tell a story.
11 Storytelling is how you make your advice human, related and real. Every great speech or piece of advice comes with a story. The story is what people remember and that is how they will remember your advice.
Have a good structure.
Just like a good speech, high-quality advice has a good structure, which makes your advice easier to follow and more likely to be remembered. Be logical(符合逻辑的)with your advice and structure it in a way that makes sense. 12 Or you can think about the timeline in relation to your advice. What events happened first or what steps do you begin with
Use your own experience.
Many people tell stories but seldom include their own experiences. Your experience is the best advice you can give. No one has exactly the same story or experience as you, so that is what makes your advice truly unique. All of us have experiences worth sharing. 13
Put in emotion.
The best advice contains your own emotion. Link your advice to emotion. It is another useful strategy to get people to take action. We all remember when we got emotional while giving a speech or when we felt the same emotion as the person. 14 We have all felt sadness, laughter or else in our lives. So, put these into your advice if you want to influence your audience to make a real and rapid change.
Giving advice is a privilege(特权) and it should never be taken for granted. 15 Don’t forget that.
A.We have special equipment to help others.
B.You can begin with the most important point.
C.Emotion is what can make your advice universal.
D.One suggestion is to keep your story long enough.
E.The only purpose of giving advice is to help someone.
F.Dry information doesn’t inspire people to make a change.
G.Your personal experience is more valuable than you think.
(22-23高一下·河南平顶山·期末)Have you ever watched a legal drama and found yourself wondering what everyone’s talking about On TV or in movies, it might not be that important to know what everything means — but it’s different if you’re really living through a legal drama. 16
In fact, it matters so much that steps are being taken in some English-speaking countries to make legal language simpler. 17 In March 2023, the Colorado Politics website reported that a local judge had begun adding simple explanations to her decisions to make them easier to understand when people who didn’t have lawyers were representing themselves in court. This is often known as writing in “plain (简单的) language”, or “plain English”.
18 Set up in 1983, an international organization called Clarity encourages the use of plain language in legal documents. Clarity says it wants to give power back to people by allowing them to understand things that may be important to them.
As plain language supporters say, it’s a matter of equality: making sure everyone has easy access to information, whatever their educational background — or whether they speak English as a second language. 19 It even has laws explaining when plain language must be used in things like government documents. The US and New Zealand have also introduced laws designed to encourage clear language and reduce jargon (术语).
20 They argue that plain language can be less proper than legal vocabulary. But for many others, the
use of plain language — even along with a more difficult text — has a great many advantages. For example, we can get plain language subtitles (字幕) on our favorite legal dramas.
A.So it can be understood by everyone.
B.How can we understand the language easily
C.Then, understanding the language really matters.
D.However, some legal professionals have different ideas.
E.The plain language has a great influence on people’s life.
F.The plain language movement has been developing for many years.
G.Canada has long encouraged plain language in government documents.
(22-23高一下·陕西渭南·期末)I came to Russia to study in the winter last year. My university is located in Moscow, the capital of Russia, which is a city with a long history.
The second I stepped out of the airport, I immediately felt how freezing cold it was outside than China. 21 When I saw the main building of Moscow State University, I was deeply shocked by its beautiful architecture with its 270-year-long history. Sensing how utterly small I was in front of this grand building, I felt the crystallization (结晶) of human wisdom resonate (产生共鸣) within me.
22 What it means is that the snow and ice won’t melt until April of the following year. Just like the melting snow, I gradually overcame the difficulties of studying abroad and came to adjust to my new environment.
The first challenge was the language barrier. After leaning Russian in China, I realized that my skills were nowhere near enough. I was not fluent in Russian, sometimes causing misunderstandings. 23 For example, In Russia, everyone intentionally stands on the right side when taking the escalator (自动扶梯), which takes time for me to get used to.
However, the artistic atmosphere in Russia is very strong. 24 Tickets for those places, concerts and cultural events here are relatively cheap, making it easy to enrich my life on weekends.
In a word, living abroad means overcoming all kinds of difficulties. The experience will always leave a colorful shade in our lives. Just as the old saying in Chinese goes, “it is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books.” 25
A.Obviously, the freezing climate does not agree with me.
B.Starting from early November each year, the snow season in Moscow is very long.
C.Take a look at the outside world while you are young!
D.I can visit many of the attractions that I used to see in my textbooks and performances I used to watch only on TV.

F.And the buildings surrounding me looked so different from the ones in China too.
G.The cultural differences were also hard to deal with at first.
(22-23高一下·陕西·期末)Live-stream marketing: A rural rags-to-riches story
For many years, quality agricultural products were unable to sell in faraway provinces. 26 It prevented them from accessing a wider, urban client. In most cases, because farmers failed to directly reach consumers, their heavy physical labor resulted in very little income. In this regard, live-stream marketing may appeal to young migrant workers and convince them to return home in the countryside. 27
In Yunnan Province, southwest China, live-stream marketing is currently the most popular way of pushing local products to consumers across the country. 28 It is turning the smart-phone into a new farming tool by fashioning new shopping centers. Live-streaming has greatly boosted the province’s produce sales in the past two years. We now have a great business model in place, combining products with high-quality live stream platforms and support packages from the government. 29 Anyway, the continuous development of live-stream marketing is ready to play a big role in raising rural incomes in relatively backward provinces like Yunnan. E-commerce live-streaming is doing pretty well nowadays, but farm produce only accounts for a small share, mainly due to the lack of experienced hosts and infrastructure in rural areas.
30 How to grow live stream marketing for farm products Short videos or live-streams, the key is to meet consumers’ demand. High-quality products alone aren’t enough; they must consider buyers’ preferences as well.
A.There arises a question.
B.Policies should be made to protect the environments
C.The expansion of 5G technology is a vital contribution.
D.The biggest barrier is lack of efficient marketing channels.
E.More primary schools should be built in the rural areas.
F.But we should establish a complete supply chain based on strict standards.
G.Once back home they can introduce digitally advanced approaches to agricultural management.

You can even eat in the bath if you are hungry. 59 For the first few years of a person’s life, they are bathed before bed, not showered. This is because baths can be calming or fun - and importantly they give time out from the day.

bigger by making someone else feel small takes so little skill that 12-year-olds can do it.
Give yourself permission to be bad. You know what you’re really good at Things you’ve done many times before. Mastery is boredom. 68 And we hate feeling like fools. So we keep ourselves bored in order to protect ourselves from being stupid. This is a bad trade.
Go to the party even when you don’t want to. Nine times out often, you’ll be bored and go home early. 69 It will pay you more than making up for those other wasted hours.
Be grateful. You have been given 2 billion seconds on this planet, give or take. You won’t get a refund (退款) from the universe for the seconds you spent complaining about the unfairness. 70
A.Always be ready to learn.

(如果你像我一样,刚刚步入中年,请注意:你不能再对自己说,你可能会搬到里斯本,学习葡萄牙语,拿起吉他。)”说明人进入中年后有些事情已经无法实现,后文“Best of all, these rules work no matter what your age and stage of life.

Once we reached eighth grade, many of us got the idea that the nasty put-down (无礼的贬低), the superior smile, and the clever one-liner are the signs of intelligence and great personal strength. But this kind of cleverness is like “playing the game on easy mode.” Making yourself feel bigger by making someone else feel small takes so little skill that 12-year-olds can do it. (刻薄容易,善良很难。上了八年级后,我们中的许多人都认为,无礼的贬低、高高在上的微笑和聪明的俏皮话是聪明和强大的个人力量的标志。但这种聪明就像是“在简单模式下玩游戏”。通过让别人感到渺小来让自己感觉更伟大,这几乎不需要什么技巧,12岁的孩子都能做到。)”说明应摒弃刻薄,坚守善良,并解释自以为是的刻薄并非聪明和真正的强大,B项“First and foremost, be kind.

69.前文“Nine times out often, you’ll be bored and go home early. (经常外出九次,你就会觉得无聊,然后早早回家。)”描述外出大概率令人不满意,后文“It will pay you more than making up for those other wasted hours. (它会给你带来比弥补那些浪费的时间更多的回报。)”说明某个事物会带来收获,E项“But the tenth time, you will have a worthy experience. (但第十次,你会有一个有价值的经验。)”符合语境,说明可能会获得经验,与前文形成转折,引出后文的收获,选项中的the tenth time呼应前文的Nine times,选项中的a worthy experience是后文It指代的内容。故选E。
