M: Oh, hey, I'm off on Friday.So we can leave early for the cabin.
W: Uh, bad news, uh, I checked the weather up there.It looks like rain for this weekend.
(Text 2)
W: I'd like a dozen of eggs and a bottle of water, please.
M: That's $5, please.Would you like a bag? That's $0.2. 
W: Yes, please.
(Text 3)
M: Did you notice the sign back there? It says the speed limit is down to 45 miles per hour.
W: Uh oh! I'd better slow down — I'm going 55.
M: I'm glad I mentioned it, then.We don't want to get a ticket for speeding.
(Text 4)
W: How about going for a bike ride?
M: Sure.Where?
W: Let's call Harry.He can tell us the best place to go.
(Text 5)
W: Good morning, Mr Kevin.I hope I'm not disturbing you. 
M: Not at all, Mary.Come in and take a seat.
W: I want to tell you that I have already started writing my paper, and I'd like to discuss my topic with you.
(Text 6)
M: Was that the telephone ringing?
W: I didn't hear anything.
M: I thought I heard it ring two or three times.
W: Sometimes when the windows are open, you can hear the neighbor's phone.
M: Well, I'm expecting an important phone call, and I don't want to miss it.
(Text 7)
W: Have you handed in your papers, John?
M: Sorry, Mrs Smith.I haven't finished them yet.
W: But you must have handed them in by last Friday, and now it's Monday.
M: I am terribly sorry.The problem is, I wrote them with my computer, but it failed to work.I need some time to get it repaired.I promise I'll give them to you in two days.
W: All right.I'll wait two days.But if you break your promise, you know what the result will be.
(Text 8)
W: Are you ready to go to the concert?
M: Yes.Should we go there by bus so that we aren't late?
W: Actually, why don't we go there by bike? We could get stuck in traffic if we travel by bus in the rush hour.
M: That's true.Cycling is good for our environment, too.Let me just get my helmet then.
W: Is your helmet comfortable?
M: Not really, but I liked the design, so I got it.
W: Maybe you should think about getting a round helmet; they're better.
M: I'll think about it.
W: Is that your new bicycle?
M: Yes, my father gave it to me for my birthday.Do you like it?
W: It's the latest 10 speed cycling mountain bike.These are really expensive!
M: Nothing but the best from my dad.I like everything about it except for the brakes.They are a bit sticky.
W: I can fix those for you.Is there anything else wrong with it?
M: Well, my seat is too low for me.Do you know how to change the height?
W: That's easy.It's important to have the seat high enough so that your legs can extend fully when you are on your bicycle.
(Text 9)
W: Hello, Tom.How are you finding teaching here?
M: I get the feeling that somehow the school's successful.The buildings and furniture are so old, yet amazingly, the students seem happy.These days you can't compete unless you can really provide the best.That's the trouble with these small family-owned schools.So many are taken over by large companies.They seem to offer a whole range of subjects, not just English and maths.
W: I think that's good, because they can bring together a mixture of teachers of different subjects.A geography teacher, say, might give you fresh ideas that you can apply in teaching English or maths.
M: I've always found it a real eye-opener talking to other English teachers, because people's methods of teaching the same subject can vary so much.Actually I sometimes feel that about classes.I feel it's my role as the teacher to make sure we get on all right, but I can't always do it.
W: Each class develops its own culture, and you may not be able to do anything about it.You just have to accept that you don't get on with every class.I couldn't get on with every class either.
(Text 10)
W: Hi! I am Kate Black.I am a nurse.I work in the children's ward at the City Hospital.Some people ask me if my job is difficult because I see so many sick people in my ward.I tell them, “It's hard, but I see my patients getting better and smiling, and that makes me happy.” Next month I will go to Africa to help take care of some African people.I will be part of the team, and we will visit many small villages in southern Africa.We will take them clean water, food and medicine.In these villages they have no clean water or health care and many people die.It is especially difficult for the children in these villages.Our project is very small, but I hope that it will make a big difference to their lives.I am writing this because we need money to help African people.If you would like to donate any money to our project, please call 242-359-8847.Every small amount of money helps.So call us, and help African people today.
第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)

A
Today, his paintings command (博得) high prices and hang in museums around the world but when Vincent van Gogh died at age 37 on July 29, 1890, his works were largely unknown.
Vincent van was born in the Netherlands 1853. Although he enjoyed drawing from the time he was a young boy, Vincent had a number of other jobs before he decided to work as a full-timer. But he failed at most of them. Vincent first started drawing using pencils or charcoal sticks (碳棒). He used some watercolours as well. He liked to draw pictures of poor hard-working people. Eventually he began to paint using oil paints. His most famous early painting was called The Potato Eaters.
Much of what we know about Van Gogh comes from letters he wrote to his brother Theo. Theo worked in an art gallery in Paris and supported Vincent's art career. He sent Vincent money and encouraged him. In 1886 Vincent moved to Paris to learn from new painters. During this time Van Gogh began to use brighter colours.
In 1888 Van Gogh moved south to Arles, France to start up an artist's commune (艺术公社). The colours in his paintings became more bright. Vincent painted hundreds of pictures during this time, sometimes painting masterpieces in a single day.
In 1889 Van Gogh committed himself to a mental hospital. He could barely take care of himself. He still continued to paint and painted one of his most famous paintings Starry Night.
语篇解读:本文介绍了艺术大师梵·高短暂而又辉煌的一生。
21.What did Vincent van Gogh like to draw in his early years?
A.People in bright colours.
B.Poor hard-working people.
C.Animals and birds.
D.Plants and flowers.
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“He liked to draw pictures of poor hard-working people.”可知,在早期,梵·高喜欢画贫穷的劳动人民。
22.How did the author develop this text?
A.By time.        B.By telling stories.
C.By making comparisons. D.By stating facts.
解析:选A 推理判断题。根据文中的“1853”、“In 1886”、“In 1888”、“In 1889”和“on July 29, 1890”可知,作者是以时间为序写作的。
23.What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A.Vincent van Gogh is a great painter.
B.Why Vincent van Gogh learned to draw.
C.What Vincent van Gogh's early life was.
D.Vincent van Gogh's famous paintings.
解析:选C 段落大意题。根据文章第二段内容可知,本段主要讲述的是梵·高早期的生活情况。
B
Part of the reason that English has grown as a world language is that it easily adjusts to (适应) change. However, this means that what one was taught as a child in school may be out of date many years later. When words or phrases change, it can make speakers feel “wrong” because they were taught that something else was “right”.
One example of this is a term connected to school itself. Today, it is common for people to say that they “graduated” high school or college. The word “graduate” has two common meanings. One is to mark off a series. The other meaning is closely related. As you move through school, you cross over a series of achievements: grade school, middle school, high school, and college. So, in a way, school itself is “graduated”.
So, when people used to speak of getting a degree, they said they “graduated from college”. “To graduate college” would have meant to mark it off by year — the first year, the second year etc. Similarly, “to graduate to college” would have meant to complete high school and move up to the next level.
But as happens often in English, when people understand your meaning, smaller words can disappear. “I graduated college” is now easy to say. This may distress people who were taught that you had to use “from” to be correct. But this is not the first time this phrase has been simplified. It used to be that you said, “I was graduated from college,” instead of, “I graduated from college.”
You can't know what English will keep and what it will lose. Who could imagine that we would still say we “dial” a phone number when we now push buttons on our cellphones? Yet we know what it means.
语篇解读:本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了英语是一门不断发展变化的语言。
24.What do we know about the word “graduate”?
A.It has two similar meanings.
B.There was a change in its meanings.
C.It had nothing to do with school at first.
D.It got an extra meaning during its development.
解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The word‘graduate’ has two common meanings. One is to mark off a series. The other meaning is closely related.”可知,graduate一词有两个相近的意思。
25.Which of the following is the newest usage of “graduate”?
A.I was graduated from college.
B.I was to graduate to college.
C.I graduated from college.
D.I graduated college.
解析:选D 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“what one was taught as a child in school may be out of date many years later”和第二段中的“One example of ... or college.”可知,I graduated college是最新的用法。
26.The underlined word “distress” probably means “________”.
A.change B.correct
C.worry D.hurt
解析:选C 词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“who were taught that you had to use ‘from’ to be correct”可知,对于那些在学校学的是I graduated from college的人来说,他们认为I graduated college是错误的说法,然而现在人们却经常这样说,这让他们感到不安。故distress和worry意思相近。
27.What's the best title for the text?
A.Right or wrong?
B.Words come and go in English
C.English is a very changeable language
D.How should English be taught in school?
解析:选B 标题归纳题。文章第一段点出英语在发展变化,第二至四段举例说明graduate一词用法的变化,最后一段中的“You can't know what English will keep and what it will lose.”更是点出文章的主旨。故B项作标题切题。
C
How hard we have all prayed to grow up quickly, and looked forward to the happy days of being a grown-up and enjoying the many interests that a youth should have.
At last, you have grown up. At least you are no longer a child. They call you “young lady”. You then enjoy the pleasure of being a young lady. You are proud of being a grown-up teenager. People welcome you — this young lady. You are glad that your prayer has been answered.
But there is always something that troubles you a lot. You say, “Papa and Mama, give me some money please. My pocket money is all gone already.”
“No,” they say, “your age is a dangerous age. If you have too much money to spend, it won't do you any good.” Then you have to stay at home because you dare not go out with an empty pocket.
Another time you tell your grandma, “Grandma, see, I am a grown-up now.”
“Good, now, you can sit here and knit (编织) this for me while I go and have a rest.” To show that you are no more a child, you have to sit there the whole afternoon doing the work, which only a grown-up can do. After an hour, you find it hard to do, and give the knitting basket back to your grandma. Your grandma criticizes your work. You hear what she says, “Such a big girl can't do such easy work.” You wish then you were a child again.
But the fact is, you are growing up, and you can't help it. That's the way it goes!
语篇解读:小孩子总是希望自己快点长大,可是在成长的过程中又会面临各种各样的烦恼。
28.The passage tells about problems faced by ________.
A.a growing-up boy B.a teenage girl
C.an old woman D.a grown-up
解析:选B 细节理解题。在文章中作者是以一名女孩子的情况做假设的。
29.How does she know her prayer has been answered?
A.People treat her as a young lady.
B.She is no longer a kid.
C.People begin to call her teenager.
D.She can join women in all kinds of activities.
解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第二段内容可知,女孩发现别人把自己当一个成人看待时,觉得自己的愿望实现了。故A项正确。
30.Having heard her grandma's criticism, ________.
A.she has to lie in bed, doing nothing
B.she knows she has already worked the whole afternoon
C.she wishes she were not growing up
D.she finds it isn't her turn to do knitting
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“You wish then you were a child again.”可知答案为C项。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

语篇解读:高中生应该保持身体健康、心情愉悦。本文告诉高中生如何过一种快乐健康的生活。
31.选G 根据“It's very important for high school students to stay happy and healthy.”可知,本句和上一句话并列,指如果心情不好,学生可能不想学习。
32.选D 根据本段的主题句以及后面的“Eating healthy food and drinks will help you stay away from diseases”可知,想要保持健康的身体,除了吃得健康,也需要多喝水,故选D项。

参考范文:
Recently we've had a debate about whether it would be much easier if everyone in the world just spoke English. Different people hold different opinions.
Some people are in favour of the idea. Firstly, life would be much easier. Furthermore, business and politics would be easier, as all communications and negotiations could be done directly, and they would be faster and cheaper because there would be no need for translators or interpreters.
However, other people think if everyone in the world spoke English, the world would be a less interesting place. We would lose many fascinating elements of culture, and our national identity.
Personally, I feel that although it would certainly make many areas of life such as travel, business and politics much easier, it would also make the world a more boring and duller place to live in. We need cultural diversity — it makes us richer.

An 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old highly-educated son.Suddenly a crow (乌鸦) perched (栖息) on their window.
The father asked his son,“What is this?”The son replied,“It is a crow.”

After a little while, the old father again asked his son for the third time, “What is this?”
At this time some expression of irritation (恼怒) was felt in the son's tone when he said to his father with a rebuff (生硬回绝).“It's a crow, a crow.” A little while later, the father again asked his son the fourth time,“What is this?”
This time, the son shouted at his father,“Why do you keep asking me the_same_question again and again, although I have told you so many times ‘IT IS A CROW’.Are you not able to understand this?”
A little while later the father went to his room and came back with an old tattered (发皱的) diary, which he had maintained since his son was born.On opening a page, he asked his son to read that_page.When the son read it, the following words were written in the_diary:
“Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa, when a crow was sitting on the window.My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied to him all 23 times that it was a crow.I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question.I did not at all feel irritated but I rather felt love for my innocent son.”

Paragraph 1:
After reading the diary, the son's eyes were filled with tears and he began to reflect on the days when he used to sit together with his father.His father would patiently answer the same question all 23 times without feeling irritation while his father asked him the_same_question just four times! The son thought to himself: If I get old, how will my son look at me? Will he think of me as a burden? Will he shout at me because of my poor sight, poor hearing or poor understanding?
Paragraph 2:
Feeling ashamed, the son got down on his knees before his father.He made an apology to his father, begging his father to forgive him for his bad behaviour.He said this aloud, “I promise to see you happy forever, Dad.It is you who have cared for me since I was a little child, showering your selfless love on me.You worked hard to make money so that I could afford to go to university.I will serve you in the best day.”

Ⅰ.阅读理解
English has surely become the global language.Whenever we turn on the news to find out what's happening in East Asia, or Africa, or anywhere, people are being interviewed and telling us about it in English.
If people look at the facts about the amazing reach of the English language, many would be surprised.English is used in over 90 countries as an official or semi-official language.English is the working language of many international institutes (研究所) as well as of most international research scientists.It is also the language that Indian parents and black parents wish their children to learn.It is believed that over one billion people worldwide are now learning English.
One of the most important causes of the spread of English around the world is that Europeans are willing to accept it as their language.English is spreading from northern Europe to the south and is now the second language in countries such as Sweden, Norway, Netherlands and Denmark.If one visits any of them, it would seem that almost everyone there can talk in English.
Recently, a report said that at the beginning of 2001, English was the most widely known foreign language with 43% of Europeans saying they spoke it.The report also said that with over 89% of the population speaking English,Sweden now has the highest percentage of English speakers.What's more, English is the language rated as most useful to know, and over 77% of Europeans who do not speak English as their first language consider it useful.

?Learn to ask. __2__ If the teacher's going too fast, your classmates will also be happy to hear the information again. If you don't want to ask in class, see your teacher afterwards.
?Compare. Going over your notes with a friend and comparing what the two of you put down can help master what you're learning. It can also help you remember information when it's time for a test. __3__

Do you love bacon (熏猪肉)? Who doesn't, right? From time to time, you may have heard the phrase “bring home the bacon”. Did you ever wonder what that means?
Actually, “bring home the bacon” is a common phrase used to mean “to earn money”. If you're “bringing home the bacon”, you're making money to bring home to your family. So how is the meat connected with making money?
One popular story holds that the phrase appeared in the 1100s in a small town of Great Dunmow in England. The church (教堂) in Great Dunmow would give a rasher of bacon as a reward to any man who could honestly say that he had not argued (争吵) with his wife for a year. Others believe the phrase got started in the 1500s at country fairs. One of the most popular competitions included catching a pig. The prize for it was that you got to keep it.
Since the 1600s, the word “bacon” has been used to mean one's body. Because people often connect the body with one's ability to work and earn money, it's believed that bacon finally took on that meaning, too. One way of earning money with one's body back then was the sport of boxing.
On September 3, 1906, boxer Joe Gans fought against Oliver Nelson for the world lightweight championship in Goldfield, Nevada. According to the Reno Evening Gazette, Joe received a telegram (电报) from his mother before the fight. It read: “Joe, the eyes of the world are on you. Everybody says you ought to win. Peter Jackson will tell me the news and you bring home the bacon.” Joe Gans did win the fight and the prize money that went along with the victory. He sent a telegram back to his mother, saying that he was “bringing home the bacon”. Mrs Gans was probably repeating a phrase she had heard before, but hers was the first usage that experts can find. Before long, the phrase was being used commonly in boxing, and it also quickly moved to other sports.

When it comes to the question how to encourage students to achieve success, teachers may offer different answers based on their own teaching experience. Here are some suggestions.
?Post your expectations around the room.
If a student does not understand what teachers expect from him, he will have a much greater chance of failure. From the first day of class, your expectations should be clear. Many teachers post their class rules for all to see. __1__ You can select posters with encouraging words that explain your expectations.
?__2__
Make sure that you do not show any biases (偏见) towards students' learning. If you believe that the students in your class can't learn a subject well, they probably won't. __3__ Be careful about the words you use and make sure that you don't make students feel that you doubt their abilities. You must believe strongly and sincerely that your students can and will learn what you are teaching them.
?Allow students the space to learn on their own.
__4__ While you can provide guidance, as the year goes on, you should pull back and give them more responsibility for their own learning. You should avoid jumping right in and helping students by simply providing them with the answers to their questions. __5__
A.Pay special attention to slower students.
B.Have a right attitude to students' abilities.
C.It is also a great idea to put up your expectations.
D.A healthy teacher-parent relationship is necessary.

4.选F 本段的主旨是老师应该给学生留出自主学习的空间。选项F中的become self-directed learners符合本段主旨。

There are many social science majors in large companies who take up important positions.

Studies show that social science majors are most suited for change, which is the leading feature of the kind of high-speed, high-pressure, high-tech world we now live in.
Social science majors are not only experiencing success in their long-term company jobs, but they are also finding jobs more easily. A study showed that many companies had filled a large percentage of their entry-level positions with social science graduates.

2.high-speed“高速的”,合成词

5.experience“v.经历”,转化词,由名词experience(经验,经历)转化而来

“Remember, your father is only one year __1__ (old) than you.” That was Mom's usual excuse when Dad said the wrong things or did something __2__ (fool).
Dad quitted drinking exactly one year before I was born. He joined a group of other people. He said they __3__ (stop) drinking, too. I loved my dad __4__ I hated the way his weekly meetings took him away __5__ me. It seemed that they were more important to him than I was. But with my birthday coming up I thought Dad would make an __6__ (except). “Can't you miss it just this time? Saturday is my birthday!” I begged him but __7__ (refuse). He said, “I am chairing the meeting this Saturday. We will have your party on Sunday.”
Saturday evening I sat on my bed, __8__ (feel) sorry for myself. Dad started to leave, then paused and said, “Why not come with me together tonight? It's an open meeting. All are welcome.” __9__ would I do at a meeting? But maybe I needed to see why something Dad did every week mattered so much.
After we arrived, Dad announced the theme of the meeting was going to be grateful. He told his story about giving up smoking. Later, a man __10__ (call) Dave also told his story. Only then did I know it was Dad that saved his life from drinking. Showing up week after week and meeting with people, Dad was changing lives. Shame washed over me.
语篇解读:本文是记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者由对父亲每周参加会议非常不理解到最后自己感到羞愧的过程。
1.older 从空后的“than you”可知,这里要用形容词的比较级。
2.foolish foolish为形容词,在这里作定语,修饰something。
3.had stopped 从句中stop的动作发生在主句中的said之前,因此本空用过去完成时。
4.but 分析语境可知,空前后为转折关系,因此用but。
5.from 此处表示他每周的会议把他从“我”身边带走,因此用from。take away from“带走”,为固定搭配。
6.exception 从空前的an可知,这里需用名词,因此用exception。
7.was refused I与refuse之间为逻辑上的动宾关系,再结合全文的时态可知,此空用一般过去时的被动语态。
8.feeling “feeling sorry for myself”为现在分词短语作伴随状语,修饰sat。
9.What What引导特殊疑问句,并在疑问句中作do的宾语。
10.called “called Dave”为过去分词短语作定语,修饰man。
Ⅶ.完形填空
The whole school was talking about the coming trip at a winter camp. And everyone was __1__, except me.
“I'll hate it,” I told my parents.“I'll get homesick (想家的). I'll look stupid at winter sports, and everyone will __2__ me.”
“You might be surprised, Bree,” said Mom.“The only way to find out is to __3__.”
“It's what growing up is all about,” Dad added.
When __4__ the camp, we were asked to share one __5__.
“I'm afraid I'll be homesick,” someone said.
I wasn't the only one?! I began to __6__. After lunch, we were asked to ski (滑雪) down to the field. I skied __7__, but I still hit a piece of ice and __8__.
“Ha! Ha!” Behind me, somebody started laughing. I __9__ to see who was making fun of me.
To my __10__, I saw a girl in the same awkward (尴尬的) position I was in.“I thought I'd be bad at this, __11__ I'm worse than I expected!” she said.
__12__, I started laughing too. After being so __13__ of falling, it was a comfort not to fear it anymore.
At dinner time, I was so happy to be talking about interesting things that I __14__ to feel homesick.
The next day, I was __15__ to try ski jumping first, even though I didn't want to. But when my feet left the ground, I felt I was __16__ and it was wonderful.
Maybe Dad was right when he said “You might __17__ it if you give it a chance!”

Ⅱ.阅读理解
English is not pronounced as it is written: vowel sounds (元音) and consonant sounds (辅音) can often be pronounced in different ways, and there are no accents to help you with stress. For this reason, most students see pronunciation as one of the most difficult things of the language, and they expect their teacher to help them with it. Before a student can pronounce well, they must be able to pronounce each sound more or less correctly.
·Incorrect pronunciation is one of the main reasons for breakdown in communication.
·The more help students are given with their pronunciation, the more confident they feel when they speak and the more likely they are to have a go at speaking.
·There is no point in teaching students new words or phrases if they can't pronounce them correctly.
·Although there are many irregularities, there are also rules which can help students to pronounce better. About 70% of words in English follow a regular pronunciation style.
·If students are taught to recognize phonetic symbols (音标;注音), they will be able to check pronunciation of new or unusual words in their dictionary.
·Certain English sounds may not exist in their language at all or may be similar but different. Students may tend to pronounce letters or a group of letters in the same way as in their own language.
·Teaching the 44 sounds of English altogether makes students realize that the number of sounds isn't limitless.
·Students can be taught to see the relationship between a single letter and a sound, and how certain groups of letters produce certain sounds.
REMEMBER
Encourage your students with their pronunciation.
语篇解读:本文主要讲述了英语发音的重要性,并提出了如何让学生学好发音的几条建议。
1.This passage is probably written for ________.
A.students     B.teachers
C.parents D.scientists
解析:选B 推理判断题。根据文章最后一句可以推知,这篇文章可能是写给老师的。
2.If you pronounce a word incorrectly, people will ________.
A.not get along well with you
B.not be able to understand you
C.teach you the correct pronunciation
D.encourage you to pronounce correctly
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据文章第二段可知,错误的发音会影响交流。由此可知,如果你发音不正确,对方将不能理解你的意思。
3.The author probably disagrees that ________.
A.pronunciation is one of the most difficult things of the language
B.there are pronunciation rules for most of the English words
C.students should learn new words before pronouncing them correctly
D.teachers should help and encourage students with their pronunciation
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第四段可知,如果学生不能正确地读出新单词的发音,那么老师教他们这些新单词也是没有意义的,故答案为C项。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
These people are studying English. However, they are now facing some problems.
  I am Pablo. I work 50 hours a week as a taxi driver, so I talk with people all day. They understand me, but I know I make a lot of mistakes. No one corrects me. My vocabulary is strong. Grammar is my problem. I'm trying to change little by little. For example, I don't use the past tense (时态). I always say, “I drive him to the office this morning” instead of “I drove him to the office this morning”.
  My name is Maria Luisa. I'm teaching myself English, and I'm good at grammar. However, it's really difficult to find ways to practice English. I live in an area where everyone speaks my language. My neighbours and friends speak Spanish. I can speak Spanish in the supermarket and at the post office.
  I am Li Ping. I understand the grammar and the readings in my class and I think my writing is good, but I'm very nervous when I speak English. I don't want to make any mistakes because I'm afraid people will think that I'm stupid. Also, my pronunciation isn't good. When I speak, people often say, “What? Say that again.”
  I am Yoshi. I have been in the United States for one year. I'm studying hard and I know grammar well, but the vocabulary is very difficult. When I listen, I don't understand many of the words. When I try to read, there are three or four new words in every sentence. I feel discouraged.

A.Try to have a wide vocabulary.
B.Develop a good knowledge of grammar.
C.Read as many English books as possible.
D.Make friends with English-speaking people.

3.Why do people find it hard to understand Li Ping's English?
A.She can't pronounce words in English correctly.
B.She speaks at a very fast speed.
C.Her grammar is terrible.
D.Her voice is very low.
解析:选A 细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的“my pronunciation isn't good. When I speak, people often say,‘What? Say that again.’”可知,A项正确。
4.What can we learn about Yoshi?
A.He was born in the United States.
B.He has a very small vocabulary.
C.He has learned English for years.

Ⅲ.读后续写
阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
With time going by, Mother's Day was around_the_corner. Maybe it is the happiest day for every mother. Bruce, a boy of nine years old, with his little sister Alina, six years old, wanted their mother to be one of them. But they were too young to get a job, even if a part-time one. What could they do? There was only one week left. They felt sad whenever they thought their mother would spend her Mother's Day without carnations (康乃馨).
Money is hard to make. Buying a bunch of carnations would cost a large sum of money for them. One day when they were wandering at the street, they heard Mr Green was complaining that he had no time to wash those soda pop bottles. It is a kind of soda pop sold in bottles and the bottles can be washed and filled again. Mr Green ran that grocery shop by himself, so he had no time to wash them. “Would you like to try, Alina?” Bruce asked his sister suddenly. Alina nodded her head without hesitation. After all, both of them knew that maybe it was an opportunity for them to make money for the flowers.
They walked a few steps and came near Mr Green. They looked up at Mr Green and asked whether they could help him to wash those bottles. Mr Green looked at them curiously until he was told the reason. He agreed and promised that he would pay 0.1 dollar for every bottle. Bruce and Alina were very happy even though they knew they would have a busy week.
They came to Mr Green's shop in the next seven days when they came back from school. On the morning of Mother's Day, they got the pay — 6.1 dollars.The boy also had 0.3 dollar saved.
So with a total of 6.4 dollars they walked about a mile to where a flower shop was located. When they came inside, someone asked what they wanted. They told him they wanted to buy some carnations for their mother. The boy reached into his pocket and pulled out their cash, asking if that would be enough.

Paragraph 1:
“But, your money is not enough!” said the shop assistant. “Even for the smallest bunch?” Bruce asked quickly and eagerly, not believing his ears. “Not enough!” the shop assistant answered clearly, with the explanation that carnations were the most expensive flowers these days because of Mother's Day. They were too disappointed to hear that! Bruce hopelessly put the money back into his pocket.
Paragraph 2:
“Wait a moment, please!” another gentleman waved to them. “I just have some carnations on sale which are a little small but pretty. Would you like to have a look? Only two dollars! ” Bruce nodded at once. “Just a minute!” He went to the back and came out with a bunch of carnations with paper wrapping around the pot. He took only two dollars, and also gave a Mother's Day card as a gift. “Thank you very much,” Bruce bowed to the gentleman and they walked home proudly carrying the flowers for Mom. They couldn't wait to see her smiling face.

Ⅰ.阅读文章回答问题
If you want to become a fluent English speaker you should take some advice: There are four skills in learning English. They are reading, listening, speaking, and writing. The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills you should first master the skills of reading and listening.
Read_as_much_as_you_can._But_your_reading_must_be_active._It_means_that_you_must_think_about_the_meaning_of_the_sentence,_the_meaning_of_the_unfamiliar_words,_etc._There_is_no_need_for_you_to_pay_much_attention_to_grammar_or_try_to_understand_all_the_unfamiliar_words_you_come_across._It_would_be_better_to_prepare_yourself_a_notebook_so_you_can_write_down_the_important_words_or_sentences_in_it.
For listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. Their languages are easy. Or if you are good at listening you can listen to VOA or BBC programs every day. Again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably taking some notes.

参考范文:
Last summer, I went abroad to the USA for a trip with my parents. The first day my parents went to a restaurant and looked around for a toilet. However, they didn't find it. When they asked the waitress, she indicated a sign to the “restroom”. But my parents didn't want to rest. Then I asked for the “WC” but the girl said they didn't have one. We were confused. At last, she understood what we wanted, she laughed and we also laughed. From this experience, I made up my mind to study English harder.
