For many tests and exams, you are tested on your abilities to communicate successfully. In order to speak English fluently, you need to think in English. If you don’t, your speech will be slow and it won’t sound natural. Here are three pieces of advice for you to practice thinking in English.
★Look at objects around your home and school, and think of what they are called
in English. Try to make a direct connection between the object and the English word.
★When you are out in a public place, practice describing the things and people you see in your mind. For example, think “There is a man walking down the street. He’s wearing a suit. I think he is going to work.” Try to think in English first, not in your first language.
★When you have to say something in English, think first and ask yourself,
“What words and phrases do I know in English that I can use in this situation?” Try not to think in your first language and translate your ideas into English. If you do, you will get frustrated very quickly.
Try these tips and you’ll soon find that you are thinking in English.

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 cardboard folded (折叠的) 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 got great chances because of that.”
After listening to the story, I understood that the chance will not find you itself. You must show yourself all the time so that you can find a chance on the card.
( )25. How did the writer’s classmates behave when they were asked questions?
A. They lowered their heads.B. They shook their heads.C. They closed their eyes.
( )26. How did the speaker get to know the students’ names?
A. He got them from the name list on the teacher’s desk.
B. He saw the cardboards on the seats.
C. He asked the students for their names.
( )27. What does the underlined word “eye-catching” in Paragraph 3 mean in
Chinese?
A. 引人注目的 B. 眼睛疼痛的 C. 目光呆滞的
( )28. What does the writer mainly tell us?
A. Doing as others do is necessary. B. Showing yourself bravely can win chances.
C. Attracting others’ attention is interesting.

根据短文内容,从框内6个选项中选出能分别填入5个小题空白处的最佳选项。
A. Again, it doesn’t have to be anything really difficult. B. However, I have found a few things that are really helpful. C. You can also make friends with native speakers to learn the language. D. You may think that reading harder texts will help you to improve quickly. E. This allows you to hear the language spoken by native speakers and talk with them.
I am learning French and German now, and also learnt Italian in the past, so I know how hard learning a language can be. 29.
Go to the country
Go to the country whose language you are learning. 30. For example,when I started learning Italian, I got the chance to stay in Italy for a few days! And then everywhere I went I was surrounded (包围) by delicious food, interesting Roman buildings. 31.
Read, read, read!
Reading is an important skill in language learning. But I’m not just talking about serious things like difficult newspaper articles. 32. But I would advise you not to choose difficult things to read, because you are more likely to get bored and give up. Instead, you should choose something fun and interesting.
TV and films
Another thing that really helps me learn a language is watching TV or films in the language. 33. You can start with a children’s show or something that you have already seen in your native language. That way you will already know what’s happening and you can write down useful words and sentences or try to repeat what they say.

Note-taking is a skill that can help you do well in all your schoolwork. It can make you confident when you are studying. But unluckily, most students don’t know how to take notes.
If your teacher writes notes on the blackboard, that’s great. You can copy them or write down the most important facts of all in class. Different teachers do things differently. For example, some teachers may focus on lots of dates and facts in class, but they only write the important ones on the blackboard. Other teachers may not write anything down, but they may repeat them.
Don’t try to write down every word in class, or you might miss some important points. Some students really learn better with the help of these notes.Don’t be afraid to ask your teacher to repeat what you’ve missed. If your teacher speaks too fast and you can’t follow what he is saying, you can ask him after paring your notes with your classmates’ can be good for your learning. It can also help you and your classmates correct some mistakes.
Note-taking also needs organization. Keep notes for each subject in one place, so that you can find everything easily when a test comes.Good note-taking takes time. If you decide to recopy your notes every evening, you’ll surely have less time to watch TV. But you’ll save time in the coming test.

What’s more,good language learners have fun with the language.
Watch a film, listen to songs, play video games or read a book. At last, often taking notes can help you remember important knowledge well.
