(STANDARD ENGLISH AND DIALECTS)
Introduction
Language is learned to be used in and for communication. So in this period we shall have the students read, listen, write and speak in English, making use of the focused words, expressions, structures and topic ideas covered in this unit.
Objectives
To help students read about STANDARD ENGLISH AND DIALECTS
To help students listen to dialects in English
To help students act out conversation and write their own
To help students brainstorm for reasons why we learn English and make a poster about learning English
Procedures
Warming up by making a list
There is not a single English in the world. There are varieties of Englishes. That is, there are many different dialects of English in the world. We are going to make a list of dialects of the English language.
International English or World English
Commonwealth English, Native American English, North American EnglishMid-Atlantic English, South Asian English, East Asian English
2. Reading
⑴Reading for main ideas
Turn to page 13. We are going to read the text quickly to find the topic sentence for each paragraph.
Para. 1: There is no such a thing as Standard English.Para. 2: English has many dialects whose words and expressions are different from “standard English”.Para. 3: Geography plays a part in making dialects.
⑵Going to the details
Do you have any difficulties with the structure and the words in the passage
Now we shall talk about them in detail.
Language focus
believe it or not: used when you are going to say something that is true but surprising: Believe it or not, John cheated in the exam.there is no such a …as: used to say that a particular person or thing does not exist: These days there is no such a thing as a job for life.standard English: the form of English that most people in Britain use, and that is not limited to one area or group of people dialect: a variety of a language spoken only in one area, in which words, or grammar are slightly different from other forms of the same languageplay a part/role in: be one of the causes that make something happen: Besides dieting, exercising plays an important part in losing weight.
3. Listening
Let’s go to page 14. We are going to listen to a boy named Buford speaking a southern dialect of AmE with an East, Texas accent.
You know pronunciation is determined by accent. I am speaking with accent, too. It is a Chinese accent.
On the other hand, Buford’s teacher, Jane, speaks standard BrE. That’s what is heard on the BBC.
I am going to play the tape twice for you to listen to answer the four questions on page 14.
Next listen once more to complete the form below giving the standard equivalents for the dialectic words from Buford’s story, using the context.
Dialectic words from Buford’s story Standard English equivalents

4. Talking about British English (BrE) and American English
British English (BrE) American English (AmE)
British English (BrE) is a term used to distinguish the form of the English language used in the British Isles from forms used elsewhere. It includes all the varieties of English used within the Isles, including those found in England, Scotland, Wales, and the island of Ireland. American English (AmE) is the dialect of the English language used mostly in the United States of America. It is estimated that approximately two thirds of native speakers of English live in the United States. American English is also sometimes called United States English or U.S. English.
5. Learning about the differences between British English (BrE) and American English (AmE)
Amy (American) Lady (British)subway undergroundleft left-hand sidekeep going straight go straight ontwo blocks two streetsright right-hand side
6. Listening to and acting out conversations
On page 15 you see a conversation among Amy, Lady and friends. Read, listen to and act it out in groups of three.
More sample versions for practice:S1: Excuse me, sir. But I can’t find the drugstore S2: Pardon S1: I said I couldn’t find the chemist’s shop.S2: Well, go round the corner on your right-hand side, straight on and cross the flyover. You will find it ahead.S1: Thank you very much.S3: What did he say S1: He told us to go round the corner on the right, go straight on and then cross the overpass. The drugstore will be ahead.Self-assessment criteria:Did you cooperate well with your partner(s) while practicing Can you ask for directions and give directions clearly Can you express your ideas fluently If not, what’s your main problem Did you go naturally between American English and British English while talking to each other
7. Writing
⑴Brainstorming for ideas
Why should we learn English Now in groups of four brainstorm for as many reasons as possible why you are learning English.
Why should we learn English
To live in an English-speaking country To work in an English-speaking countryTo do studies or researches in EnglishTo learn world history in English To travel around the worldTo study abroadTo have secret communicationTo pass an English examTo get in touch with my rootsTo revive my languageTo learn about world cultureTo learn about other religionsTo learn it to meet my linguistic interestChallenging yourselfSounds/looks good to meOne language is never enough!To better understand our thought processes To understand your own language and culture betterTo keep your mind healthy (from Harvey Schmidt)To find your future husband/wife (from Rico Suave)To better understand the rest of humankind To talk to friends without others understandingTo learn songs in other languages To help people in need To help you understand how other people think
⑵Making a poster
Why should we do exercises
Make guesses about your title, reasons and conclusion.
Then, in pairs, work on your poster.
I will ask several pairs to present their posters in class for assessment.
A Sample poster
Why should we do exercises I have to keep fit.I have to make myself strong.I have to fight illness and disease.I have to enjoy myself.I have to build up my skills.
⑶Assessing your writings
Can you give persuasive reasons for the topic on your poster
Can you verbalize your ideas fluently
Can you put your own experiences into a broader perspective
Can you organize your ideas in a logical way
Have you made a brainstorming map before you set out to design your poster Do you think it helps your writing
What kind of mistakes have you made in your writing What can you do to avoid such mistakes
8. Closing down by reading article about learning English
My experience of learning EnglishMany people all over the world speak English as their second language. It is not too much to say that it has become an international language. Studying English can make life fun. It enables you to watch American movies, read English books and listen to English songs. Moreover, as English is an international language, you will be able to communicate with foreigners when you are on a trip abroad. Traveling will be more interesting that way. It is a good idea to make friends with foreigners. In my opinion, it is the best way to improve your English. In addition, it will be fun and it will expand your view of the world. If you make friends with a native speaker, you can practice your spoken English more often and then you can communicate with people around the world. You can also become familiar with the customs and habits of different cultures. There are some people who are afraid to make friends with foreigners because they are not confident of their English. However, many foreigners do not care about grammar. They will get your key words in the sentence and figure out the whole meanings. Therefore, it is unnecessary to be afraid to make friends with them; just go head!Learning English helps us meet different people and learn more about their culture, thus facilitating mutual understanding and harmony. Briefly said, English is so useful to us that we should all learn it.10-11学年上学期新课标高一1册Unit 2测试

Every morning Mary’s dad drove to work in his red car. He’d stop and wave at Mary before heading to town. Mary would wave back.
“How come you and Dad get to drive and I don’t ” Mary turned and walked into the kitchen. Her mom, who was busy washing a plate, said, “Mary, your dad and I are grown-ups but you’re not.”
“I want to drive Dad’s car. I like the red color best,” Mary said in a low voice and sat at the kitchen table.
“When you grow up, you can buy yourself any color of car you want.” Her mom wiped her hands on a dish towel.

It is important to learn business English if you are going to be successful in another country where English is the primary language. It will also be a great idea to practice speaking and writing in business English. If a university offers a course on business English, it will be a good idea to take the class. Reading, writing and speaking English is necessary to start a business.
Business English is different from asking where to find the nearest hotel. There are classes you can take to help you but there are things that you can learn on your own. Vocabulary and grammar are a good place to start with. You

Business English is very different than spoken English. Grammar is the same but you have to learn things like expressing yourself in a proper manner or maybe making a report in your office.
If you are working in the customer service sector (客户服务部门), you really have to learn business English. Dealing with the public is sometimes more important than asking your boss for a raise (加薪).

Have you ever noticed something — like the ants in your backyard, or smoke from a forest fire, or the moon at night — and thought to yourself, “I wonder ...”
These two words can lead to a science journey and they recently brought 30 middle school students to Washington, D.C. There, they spent four days joining in scientific challenges. One of the challenges was figuring out how the flu (流感) might spread from person to person. The judges (审判官) would have an interview with each student. Students were judged on their scientific knowledge, ability to understand new ideas and scientific thinking. They were also judged on their teamwork (合作), leadership and
communication skills.
Finally, five of the students won top prizes, and were announced as the winners of the 2008 SSP Middle School Program in Washington, D.C. on October 21st. Christopher Sauer was one of the five students.
Christopher Sauer, 13, won first place, a $20,000 scholarship. He was chosen to attend a science project team that builds a special engine. Christopher and his friend came up with the idea after watching a movie about submarines (潜水艇) that use this kind of engine.
So the next time you find yourself saying “I wonder ...”, spend some time thinking about how you might explore your idea further. You never know where your interest might lead you — perhaps to Washington, D.C.!

There are many reasons why people work from home. One of the largest groups of people who work from home are stay-at-home moms and dads. For parents, working from home allows them to be home for their families while meeting their financial goals (经济目标). This is a good example of why people work from home.
Flexibility (灵活性) is another reason why people work from home. It means that if you need to, you can take two days off in the middle of the week and then work in the evenings or on the weekend. For the most part people work from home because they are free to choose when and how they work. This flexibility allows people who work from home to fit other things into their lives that they might not have time for in traditional working time.
The question of why people work from home isn’t always answered by the flexibility working from home provides you. Many people start their businesses from home in order to save start-up costs, such as leasing an office. Others work from home because their business takes place within their home. Daycares and small businesses such as hair salons or art studios are examples of this. Some jobs take place outside the traditional office space because the type of work. If someone’s business is building furniture for example,
working from home makes more sense than trying to find a place that satisfies (满足) these same needs.
With so many businesses and so many different business needs, there are many reasons why people work from home.
52. The advantages of people working from home DON’T include ______.
A. the flexible working time B. saving business costs
C. staying with their families D. making more money
53. How does the author express his opinion in paragraph 3
A. By doing a research. B. By comparing the results.
C. By giving the examples. D. By describing his experience.
54. What is the meaning of the underlined word “leasing”
A. Paying money to use a room.
B. Choosing a suitable place.
C. Building a room with others’ help.
D. Sharing a place with somebody.
55. What is the main idea of the text
A. It is convenient and popular to work from home nowadays.
B. Different people have different reasons to work from home.
C. Flexibility is the main reason why most people work from home.

My advice on English learning
Learning English as a second language is not easy. It takes a lot of effort and time.
To improve English, first, you should practice speaking English as often as possible. Second, try to think in English whenever possible. It’s very important. Third, keep reading English stories or newspapers every day. Finally, learn about the Western culture. When you understand the cultural background of English, you can use it better.
Learning English is not as difficult as you think. Work harder and you will make great progress.Part 3 Teaching Assessment

A selected English passage for recitation英文精选背诵短文
Learn English through readingRead English texts as often as you can.This could be the news, short stories or novels, texts from your textbook or the Internet. Choose an interesting text that is not too difficult for you (otherwise it wouldn’t be fun).Don’t look up every word which is new to you — even without a dictionary you will understand a lot. Just concentrate on what you do understand and try to find out the rest by intelligent guessing. That works rather well, especially if you are interested in the topic. If you are a football fanatic for example, you probably won’t have problems understanding an English text about football. On the other hand, someone who is better in English than you but not interested in football will have more problems understanding the same text.Do also watch the news in your native language and try to find English news to some of the topics. Even if you don't understand every word in the English text, you will get the message as you already know what the text is about.Read between the lines. (185 words)Part 1 Teaching Design

Look at the map showing some of the places in the world where English is spoken as an official language and guess what you will hear in the tape
Location, climate, people, custom,
history, places of interest, and so on.
The name of each speaker’s country
Speaker 1 is from India.
Speaker 2 is from the USA.
Speaker 3 is from Jamaica.
Speaker 4 is from Ireland.
Speaker 5 is from Philippines.
Speaker 6 is from Singapore.
The hints that help to identify the speaker
Speaker 1 South Asia, a billion people, use English, British rulers
Speaker 2 Fat Tuesday, New Orleans,
Speaker 3 a beautiful island
Speaker 4 a huge green island in western Europe, British rulers
Speaker 5 more than 7,000 islands, American rulers
Speaker 6 very small, southeast Asia, very rich
S1: I live in South Asia.My country is
thousand of years old and now has
more than a billion people. Unlike
many other countries, our people
speak a lot of languages.So we use
English, which we got from British
rulers hundreds of years ago,to
understand our neighbours.
Listening text
Of course, we have our own way of
using English.
S2: One of my grandmothers speakers
French. Her grandmother came
from some place in Canada. I like to
listen to her talk, although I don’t
understand much of what she says.
Her English is also hard to
understand. She cooks
delicious food, so I spend a lot of time
in the kitchen with her whenever I visit her. I plan to see her again for a special holiday called Fat Tuesday. We will go to New Orleans, Which is near the sea. People will dance in the streets all day and night.
S3: Well,I don’t live very far from the last
student who spoken to you. But I live
on a beautiful island where the sun
shines most of the year. It’s not the
biggest island in the sea but it’s not
the smallest island, either. We also got
English from British rulers a long
time age, and use it in a different way.
I think our English sounds a little like
our music. Some people say I speak a
dialect of English,but I don’t agree.
To us, it’s more like another language.
S4: I live on a huge green island in
western Europe. hundreds of years
age my people spoke a very
different language from English. Then
the British rulers came. Now the old
language is spoken in only a few
villages in the western part of my
country. Most of us speak a lovely kind
of English that also sounds a little like
our music.
S5: My country has more than 7,000islands.
Some of them are very large but most
of them are quite small. Hundreds of
years ago the Spanish rulers changed
the way we live. Much later the
American rulers taught their own kind
of English in our school. Nowadays, we
speak a kind of English but is mostly
our own.
S6:My country is very small. In fact, it’s
really a city. It is in southeast Asia and
is very rich. People come from all over
Asia to do business here. But our
English comes from worker on the
street. Some people in my country
don’t like the sound of this English.
They would rather speak British English. Today, you can hear our
kind of English spoken everywhere in the city and on many ships that come here.

THE ROAD TO MODERN
ENGLISHUnit 2 English around the world
第一部分
About the topic and the structures单元话题和结构 本单元的话题是English around the world/世界各地的英语，介绍了英语的种种变体，如加拿大英语、英国英语、美国英语、澳大利亚英语和印度英语。英语在下列国家和地区是第一语言：澳大利亚、巴哈马、爱尔兰、巴巴多斯、百慕大、圭亚那、牙买加、新西兰、圣克里斯多福及尼维斯、特立尼达和多巴哥、英国和美国。贯穿于本单元的句法项目是“直接引语和间接引语（II）：恳请和要求”。同时单元教材还要求学生学习提出意见、学习组织观念。《金色教案》教学设计在单元课时划分上与课本保持一致，即“阅读课、知识课、运用课三课时/三课型划分”。但在实际教学过程中，我们建议教师依据学生基础、教学条件、学校安排等因素，对课本、对《金色教案》教学设计重新划分课时，裁剪、拼接使用教案提供的材料，以便“物尽所用”，达到最佳教学效果。教师也可以按照教案提出的“实际教学过程课时划分建议”进行教学。
Period 1Reading 阅读课 Warming Up “热身”的目的是为阅读在一定程度上作好话题、词汇和结构的准备，激发学生相关的背景知识和学习兴趣。对此教案提供了“列表”、“问答”和“给出理由”三种不同的“热身”设计供教师选用。实际操作中还需要教师动用诸如板书、投影等辅助手段，以达到最佳教学效果。Pre-reading 部分要求学生思考“我们为什么学英语？”，帮助学生挖掘和呈现自己的背景知识，为其后的阅读做心理的铺垫和准备。Reading 是篇exposition说明文，说明了英语的演变和英语的各种变体。教师可以参照教案提供的“表格”、“结构图”引导学生从形式和内容两方面阅读文章，同时为下一节知识课“运用间接引语表达恳请和要求”作好铺垫。
Period 2Learning about language 知识课 Learning about language 首先要求学生利用录音机朗读课文，强化学生对本单元重点词汇、短语、结构和话题的掌握；然后要求学生完成课本第11、12页提供的“词法”“句法”练习。接下来系统学习和总结“直接引语和间接引语”。
Period 3Using language运用课 Using language 重点是依照教案提供的“段落大意”和“词语学习”材料引导学生阅读课本13页短文；然后听方言英语录音，完成教案提供的表格；在“说”了课本15页的会话之后，还可以让学生操练教案提供的会话材料。在“写”之前，可以使用提供的“头脑风暴”，激发思维、获得素材；最后教师可以帮助学生阅读教案提供的关于英语学习经历的范文，加深对英语学习规律性、艰巨性的认识。

Hello, everyone! Thanks for tuning into Your Time Talk Show. Today we will talk about the famous doctor, Benjamin Spock.
For years mothers in America had been told that they should feed their babies strictly on time. They were warned never to kiss, hug (拥抱) or physically comfort their children. However, Doctor Spock’s view was different. He said that babies knew better than anyone about when and how much they needed to eat. He also believed that showing love to babies by hugging and kissing them would make them feel happier and safer.
More than 50 million copies of Doctor Spock’s Baby and Child Care have been sold since it appeared. It has been translated (被译成) into 39 languages.
Benjamin Spock was born into a lawyer’s (律师) family in 1903. He was a quiet child and attended Phillips Academy, a private school. Later he went to Yale University, joined a sports team, and began boating. In 1924, his team competed in boating at the Olympic Games in Paris, and won the gold medal.
Benjamin Spock and his friends worked at a camp for disabled children during the years at Yale. He always felt pity towards those little children, and wished to help them more. This led to (导致) his decision to enter the medical school. He began at Yale Medical School, but didn’t complete his medical degree until he finished his study at Columbia University in New York City.
44. According to the passage, Doctor Spock advised parents ______.
A. not to kiss their babies too often
B. not to show their love too much
C. to hug their babies strictly on time
D. to feed their babies when they were hungry
45. Benjamin Spock decided to enter the medical school because of ______.
A. his work experience at Yale B. his experience at the Olympics
C. the suggestion of his family D. the praise from his friends
46. Where did Benjamin Spock complete his medical degree
A. At Yale University.
B. At Yale Medical School.
C. At Columbia University.
D. At Phillips Academy.
47. This passage most probably comes from ______.

“Let’s go Dutch, shall we ” Jim said after a dinner to his friends in a restaurant. What does Jim mean
Long ago, there was a kind of dinner called Dutch treat (款待). At a Dutch treat, the invited guests were expected to pay for their own share of the food and drink. Now, Dutch treat means when friends go out to have fun, each person pays his or her own share.
There are many other expressions related (相关的) with “Dutch” in American English. However, most of them were first used in England in the 17th century. At that time, the British and the Dutch were war enemies. So when British people talked about something wrong or bad, they would like to use the word “Dutch”.
A common expression heard a few years ago was in Dutch. A friend may tell you, “You are in Dutch. The teacher is angry with you. Be careful!” When a soldier took Dutch leave, he left the army without permission (准许). Dutch courage was the false courage produced by the effects of drinking wine.
There is one expression that did come from the Dutch. That is to talk like a Dutch uncle. The Dutch were known for the strict and serious way they educated their children.
48. What did people mean by saying “Let’s go Dutch”
A. The guests should leave fi rst.
B. Each person should pay his or her own bill.
C. The food should be better next time.
D. People should go to another restaurant.
49. According to the passage, the British in the 17th century ______.
A. first used the word “Dutch”
B. were mistaken for Dutch people
C. got along well with the Dutch people
D. used the word “Dutch” for something bad
50. If your friend says that he is in Dutch, he most probably means that ______.
A. he is happy B. he is lucky C. he is in trouble D. he is on vacation
51. If someone spoke to you in a very serious way, you may say that he ______.
A. was like a Dutch uncle
B. would take a Dutch leave
C. had Dutch courage
D. had a Dutch treat

In the 1740s, many sailors in Britain were weak from scurvy (坏血病). Doctor Lind thought they failed to eat some kinds of food. He divided 12 sick sailors into two groups, and gave each group different foods to eat. Then the men who ate oranges and lemons began to improve soon, while the others got weaker. That’s when vitamins (维生素) were discovered.
After that some other doctors began to spend a lot of time in looking for foods to cure diseases. They were wrong, for they did not understand that it was better to eat vitamin-rich foods earlier instead of eating them to cure a disease after it had developed.
Now let us look at some important vitamins. Vitamin A helps stop your skin from losing too much water. Vitamin B-1 helps the heart work. Vitamin B-12 helps produce red blood cells (细胞). Vitamin C is needed for strong bones and teeth. Our body stores (储存) little vitamin C, so we must get it every day in foods such as citrus (柑橘类的) fruits.
Medical experts agree that people who are in need of a vitamin should take vitamin pills. Some old people, for example, may not have enough vitamin B-12. It is found in foods like eggs, meat, milk products, and green leafy vegetables. However, as people get older, no matter how many eggs or milk products they eat, their body loses its ability to take it from them.
52. What can we learn from Doctor Lind’s experiment
A. Doctor Lind made a mistake.
B. All the sailors got better soon.
C. The sailors hated to join the experiment.
D. Some fruit could be used as a medicine.
53. If a person’s skin is always dry, he had better take ______.
A. Vitamin A B. Vitamin C C. Vitamin B-1 D. Vitamin B-12
54. Why do some old people need to take vitamin B-12 from pills
A. They don’t eat enough eggs.
B. They don’t eat enough vegetables.
C. They need more vitamin B-12 than young people.
D. They are not able to get it from food easily.
55. It can be learned from the passage that ______.
A. doctors often advised their patients to eat different foods
B. Doctor Lind was satisfied with the experiment
C. people have begun to take vitamins since the 1740s
D. eating vitamin-rich foods is good for health

English around the world
Today, many people speak English as their first, second, or foreign language. That’s because people from England started moving from the 16th century. English is changing because of the place and the time. When English communicate with one another, all languages change. From 1765 to 1947, Britain ruled India, so English became the language for government and education. English is also spoken in many other countries in Africa and Asia, such as South Africa, Singapore. English has been used in HK since 1842. Today the number of people learning English in china is increasing rapidly, and English has become the most widely used language in the world.

第三部分 阅读理解 （40分）
A
In order to know a foreign language thoroughly(完全地), four things are necessary. First, we must understand the language when we hear it spoken. Secondly, we must be able to speak it ourselves, correctly with confidence(自信) and without hesitation(犹豫). Thirdly, we must be able to write it. We must be able to make sentences that are correct in grammar.
There is no short way to succeed in language learning. A good memory(记忆) is a great help, but it is not enough only to memorize the rules from a grammar book. It is no much use learning by heart long lists(一览表) of words and their meanings, studying the dictionary and so on. We must learn by using the language. If we are pleased with a few rules we have memorized, we are not really learning the language. We must “Learn through use”. Practice is important. We must practise speaking and writing the language whenever(无论何时) we can.
51. The most important things to learn a foreign language are_______.
A. understanding and speaking
B. hearing, speaking, reading and writing
C. writing and understanding
D. memorizing and listening
52. Someone hears and writes English very well, but he speaks it very badly. This is because____.
A. he doesn’t understand the language when he hears it spoken
B. he doesn’t have a good memory
C. he always remember lists of words and their meanings
D. he often hesitates to practise speaking it
53. One can never learn a foreign language well only by_______.
A. much practice B. studying the dictionary
C. learning through use D. using the language
54. Which of the following is the most important in learning a foreign language
A. A good memory. B. Speaking.
C. Practice. D. Writing.
55.“Learn through use” means_______.
A. we use a language in order to learn it
B. we learn a foreign language in order to use it
C. we can learn a language well while we are using it
D. both B and C
B
Language learning begins with listening. Children are greatly different in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and later starters are often long listeners .Most children will “obey” spoken instructions some time before they can speak, though the word “obey” is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child .Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises.
Any attempt to study the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves as particularly expressive as delight, pain, friendliness, and so on. But since these can’t be said to show the baby’s intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new words to their store. This self-imitation（模仿）leads on to deliberate（有意的）imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech.
It is a problem we need to get our teeth into. The meaning of a word depends on what a particular person means by it in a particular situation and it is clear that what a child means by a word will change as he gains more experience of the world .Thus the use at seven months of “mama” as a greeting for his mother cannot be dismissed as a meaningless sound simply because he also uses it at other times for his father, his dog, or anything else he likes. Playful and meaningless imitation of what other people say continues after the child has begun to speak for himself, I doubt, however whether anything is gained when parents take advantage of this ability in an attempt to teach new sounds .
56. Before children start speaking________.
A.they need equal amount of listening
B. they need different amounts of listening
C. they are all eager to cooperate with the adults by obeying spoken instructions
D. they can’t understand and obey the adult’s oral instructions
57. Children who start speaking late ________.
A.may have problems with their listening
B. probably do not hear enough language spoken around them
C.usually pay close attention to what they hear
D. often take a long time in learning to listen properly
58. A baby’s first noises are ________.
A.an expression of his moods and feelings
B. an early form of language
C.a sign that he means to tell you something
D. an imitation of the speech of adults
59. The problem of deciding at what point a baby’s imitations can be considered as speech______.
A. is important because words have different meanings for different people
B. is not especially important because the changeover takes place gradually
C. is one that should be properly understood because the meaning of words changes with age
D. is one that should be completely ignored（忽略）because children’s use of words is often meaningless
60. The speaker implies________.
A. parents can never hope to teach their children new sounds
B. children no longer imitate people after they begin to speak
C. children who are good at imitating learn new words more quickly
D. even after they have learnt to speak, children still enjoy imitating
C
So much to do, so little time. So much information, so little time to read it. In this age there is more information than ever before. There is not enough time to read everything we want to read. However, you can consume more information in shorter time through speed-reading. This article will not make you read. 3,000 words per minute, but it will show you how to increase your speed significantly. You will also learn the basic techniques of speed-reading, along with the dos and don’ts of speed-reading.
When you first learned to read, you would say the word out loud and sound it out. Then you might whisper the word because people can become annoyed when you read aloud. The stage you are now at is saying the word in your head. Most people tend to read this way. Saying the word in your head will cut your reading speed tremendously (极大地).
How do you calculate your reading speed The speed is measured by how many words per minute you can read. Get some reading material, preferably a book. Find out how many words are on the page. Time yourself for one minute. Start your timer and start reading. When the timer beeps, stop. If you counted 500 words on the page and you read half of the page, and then you are probably reading at 250 words per minute.
The first thing about speed-reading is looking at the word and recognizing it. Don’t say the word in your mind, just look at it and recognize its importance. Later you will recognize clumps of four words or more to increase your speed. This is the first and most important step in speed-reading.
The next step is technique. As with any other skill, speed-reading requires technique. You should first be sitting up straight with your book flat on a horizontal (水平的) surface, such as a table or desk. Next, you should be able to see the entire page. This is necessary if you want to recognize clumps of words. Lastly, you should be focused. It’s hard to read with a lot of noise. Find a quiet place to read. This will help your understanding of the text.
You need something to guide your eyes while reading. That’s right, you should use your hand. Remember when you were little, you would read using your finger. That is a great technique, only now you’re using your hand to underline each line. Move your finger smoothly across the page. No need to go rush, start out slow. Keep your eyes focused on the words as you recognize them while using your hand as a guide. This will increase your speed.
The third step is practice. Practice makes perfect. Set time interval (间歇) .Read using different techniques, but make sure you understand what you’re reading.
61. Which of the following statements is true according to the text
A. Now there is limited information than ever before.
B. Now conditions ask people to use less time to know more information.

A. What speed-reading is.
B. Why we need speed-reading.

A. c, a, b B. c, b, a C. b, a, c D. a, c, b

33. 选D。 回应德国的广播，用德文而不是英文是自然而然的事。

35. 选C。 后面是主动，所以主语应为“人”，而非“新闻”。
36. 选C。 二战后，VOA的目的就变了。

阅读理解
A《阅读提示》
51. B 学习一门外语最重要的是听、说、读、写四种技能，A、C、D三项都不够全面。
52. D
53. B
54. C 在学习英语时，最重要的还是“练”(practice)，古语说，熟能生巧(Practice makes perfect)，故选C项。
55. C “在用中学”，文章强调练习的重要性。A项颠倒了学与用的关系，B项虽对，却不合题意。
B《阅读提示》
56. 选B。根据第一段“Children are greatly different in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking”，可直接得到答案；C选项错在all。
57. 选 D。根据第一段“Language learning begins with listening.”,“later starters are often long listeners”，可知晚开始说话的孩子晚在花很长时间在听上，听也就是接受说前的指导。
58. 选A。根据第二段“during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves as particularly expressive as delight, pain, friendliness, and so on”可知，孩子的“first noises”只是情感的表露，不能被看成是最初的语言形式，也还远没到模仿大人语言的阶段。
59. 选B。从最后一段，尤其是最后一句话可知，作者对大人利用孩子的模仿能力教给他们新的语言是否会有成效持怀疑态度。但也不能“be dismissed as a meaningless sound simply”。
60. 选D。由最后一段“Playful and meaningless imitation of what other people say continues after the child has begun to speak for himself”可知。A太绝对；B与文中叙述不符；C文中没有依据。
C《阅读提示》
61. 选B。我们时代的信息比任何时候都多。在这样的时代里，人们只有提高阅读能力，加快阅读速度，花较少的时间，获得较多的信息。
62. 选A。本文所谈及的是快速阅读，包括为什么要快速阅读、快速阅读速度的测定和怎样进行快速阅读。
63. 选C。怎样进行快速阅读？本文第四至第七段进行了介绍。(第四段)第一，要看单词、读单词和辨认单词(包括词形、意义和用法)。这是快速阅读的第一步，并且是最重要的一步。(第五至六段)第二，要求有快速阅读技术。(第七段)第三，要实践。
64. 选A。从第五段中可以看出，只有集中精力才能有效地进行阅读。有许多嗓音很难进行读。
65. 选A。本文第五段至六段讲述了快速阅读的技术问题。(第五段)主要就是把书平放在同一个水平面上，挺直地坐着。此外。(第六段)在读书时需要一些东西指引你的眼睛。
D《阅读提示》
66. A 此题考查细节事实和辨别能力。学美式英语的学生常会担心英国人不懂得他们的意思，从文中第一段可以找到。
67. D文章第二段给出了英式英语和美式英语的几点不同：在拼写、发音、词汇及语法上。故此题选D。
68. C此题亦用排除法。只有英式及美式英语不同之处的起源本文中没有涉及，故选C。
69. B
70. A本文第三段意在指明：尽管英式英语和美式英语在几个方面有些不同，但大体来说，它们仍同属一种语言。所以说英国人和美国人相互理解起来也没有多大的困难。

Dear Fred,
I am very pleased to receive your letter of Sept. 12. Thank you. In my school, English is an important subject. I like to study it, but I find it difficult to master it.

How can I learn English better Will you give me some advice on it I’ll be grateful to you. If you have time, please write to me more often.
With my best regards.
Yours,
Li Ying

M: It’s so hard for me to learn English. Why is it so easy for you
W: I didn’t know you were having problems. Maybe it’s easier for me because I already speak two languages. But also, I really work at it.
M: Well, I always do my homework and go to classes. What else do you think would help
W: Well, you might try reading newspapers. And I always talk to Americans when I get a chance, though sometimes it’s hard.
M: But, how do you meet Americans I only know other foreign students.
W: How about sitting next to an American at lunch, or have you ever thought of asking someone over to your house for dinner
M: Those are good ideas, but I’m a little shy to speak English.
W: You won’t learn if you don’t try and speak. If I were you, I’d talk to your English teacher. He might have some good ideas.

M: I think I’d need about 30 hours a week, including some Saturdays. What do you think
W: That’s what I was thinking too. We don’t want someone who has never worked in the office before.
M: Yes. It might be helpful if one could speak a second language.
W: That might prevent too many people asking for the jobs. What about the pay, William
M: What do you think would be the best to offer
W: I think it depends on experience. However, the lowest we could offer is about $9,000 per year.

The English language started in Britain in the 5th century. It is a mixed language. It was built up when German. Scandinavian and French invaders settled in England and created a common language for communication.
Today it is the official language of the UK, the USA, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, South Africa and Ireland as well as many islands in the Caribbean . Many other countries and regions use it for politics and business, for example, India. Pakistan, Nigeria and the Philippines. English is also one of the official languages of Hong Kong.
But global advertising and pop music mean that in most countries, you will see or hear some English. Thanks to McDonalds, we all know about "burgers". "fries" and "milkshakes". Songs by Madonna, Britney Spears and Celine Dion are in English. We can sing along, even if we do not understand what we are singing!

Other languages also influence English. Many English words come from French. Words like "cafe" and expressions like "c'est la vie" (that is life) are all part of the English language. On the other hand, the French language includes English words like "le weekend" and "le camping". German words are also part of English. Words like "kindergarten" come from the German language.

In order to know a foreign language thoroughly（完全地），four things are necessary． First， we must understand the language when we hear it spoken． Secondly， we must be able to speak it ourselves， with confidence（自信） and without hesitation（犹豫）． Thirdly， we must do much reading． Finally， we must be able to write it． We must be able to make sentences that are correct in grammar．
There are no shortcuts to success in language learning． A good memory is a great help， but it is not enough only to memorize the rules from a grammar book． It is not much learning by heart long lists（一览表） of words and their meanings， studying the dictionary and so on． We must learn by using the language．
If we are pleased with a few rules we have memorized， we are not really learning the language． We must “learn through use．” Practice is important． We must practise speaking and writing the language whenever we can．
51． The most important things to learn a foreign language are ＿＿＿＿＿.
A． understanding and speaking B． listening， speaking， reading and writing

One day Mary was busy working in her office in London when she received an E-mail from her friend Joan, who had studied in Harvard University for four years and now was returning to London. In Joan’s e-mail, she requested Mary to look for a flat in London for her. As she had limited amount of money at her command, the flat had to be relatively cheap, but it had to be modern, with public facilities such as elevators, gas lines available. It had to be in the eastern part of London, with petrol and subway stations nearby. It didn’t need to be large but about 100 square meters. Though Mary clearly knew it was almost impossible, she still went from one block to another, looking for a flat that would meet Joan’s requirements. Having tried too many times in vain, Mary went up to her boss and politely asked him for advice. It so happened that the boss just had such a flat for rent, so they quickly reached an agreement. But to her disappointment, when she e-mailed Joan, telling her the good news, Joan said that she was not returning and she had decided to continue to study in the university for her PhD.
What do you think of the two friends If you were Mary, what would you do If you were Joan, what should you do What’s wrong with Joan Think about it and give your answer.

An epitome of American culture
The United States of America is an immigrant county with all kind of races from all over the world, such as Africans, Asians, Europeans and South Americans, with the Indians its natives. Because of it, the USA is a country with colorful but special culture, in which English is a good example.
The British had ruled America for over 300 years so the English play an important role in USA and becomes its only official language. If someone asks who do say only one language, the answer must be Americans. But the language differs from area to area in USA, for most of Americans have strong accent but less dialect. You can recognize Americans and know he is southeastern (one speaks a bit slow but clearly)or northeastern (one speaks quickly) by their accents. You also can tell them from Englishmen by the words and phrases which they use. Take the followings as an example, if you hear an English-speaking person says “would you like to my flat for diner tonight ”, but not says: “would you like to my department… ” he may be an English but not American.
In the modern time the USA play a most important part in the international affairs and many people regard American English as the standard English. Believe it or not, many people retell what the Americans say and try to learn a mouthful of American accent!
American English is an epitome of American culture which shows The USA is tolerant, easy-going, but commanding!

A
When I was sixteen years old, I made my first visit to the United States. It wasn’t the first time that I had been abroad. Like most English children, I learned French at school. I had often been to France, so I was used to speaking a foreign language to the people who didn’t understand English. But when I went to America, I was really looking forward to having a nice easy holiday without any language problems.
How wrong I was! The misunderstandings (误解) began at the airport. I was looking for a public telephone to give my American friend Jenny a call and
tell her that I had arrived. A friendly old man asked me if he could help me.
“Yes,” I said, “I want to give my friend a ring.”
“Well, that’s nice,” he said. “Are you getting married ”
“Who is talking about marriage ” I replied. “I only want to give my friend a ring to tell her I’ve arrived. Can you tell me where there’s a phone box ”
“Oh!” he said, “there’s a phone downstairs.”
When at last we met, Jenny explained the misunderstandings to me.
“Don’t worry,” she said to me. “I had so many difficulties at first. There are lots of words which the Americans use differently in meaning from the British. You’ll soon get used to all the funny things they say. Most of the time British and American people understand each other!”

After having put his famous theory (理论) forward, Albert Einstein would tour and give lectures in many universities in the United States. He always traveled with his driver, Harry, who would go to each of these lectures while seated in the back row!
One day, after Einstein had finished a lecture and was coming out of the lecture hall into his car, Harry said, “Professor Einstein, I’ve heard your lecture so many times. If I were ever given a chance, I would be able to give a lecture myself!”
“Very well,” replied Einstein, “I’m going to Dartmouth College next week. They don’t know me. You can give the lecture as Einstein, and I’ll be Harry!”
So Harry gave the lecture in Dartmouth College the next week while Einstein sat in the back row playing “driver” as Harry did before and having a short sleep. And people found nothing wrong about the lecture.
Just as Harry was walking down from the podium (讲台), however, one of the listeners asked him a question about the theory on relativity (相对论). That was a difficult one. Harry replied to the listener, “The answer to this question is very simple! In fact, it’s so simple that I’m going to let my driver answer it!”

A. He wanted to take Einstein’s place as a lecturer.
B. He wanted to go to Dartmouth College by himself.

D. He wanted to test how he understood relativity.
44. How did Harry give the lecture
A. He attracted more listeners. B. He gave a perfect lecture.
C. He made people feel sleepy.
D. He forgot something important about the lecture.
45. What did Einstein do when Harry gave the lecture
A. He drove a car. B. He had a rest.
C. He listened to the lecture carefully.
D. He helped Harry answer the question.

An organization in the United States is helping girls lead a healthy lifestyle and build self-esteem (自尊心). Girls on the Run uses running to encourage girls from 8 to 13 to stay in physical shape. The group also holds after-school activities where girls learn good behavior.
Nine-year-old Ela Kalra joined Girls on the Run at Washington International School. “It’s really fun and it teaches you how you should care for others and what you should think about yourself,” Kalra said. “You shouldn’t be unkind to anybody else.” Ela is among 60,000 girls in 45 states who have joined the 10-week program.

certain appearance a girl should have; there’s a certain way a girl should act,” Barker said. “But the girls should learn that instead of trying to fit into it, they should be themselves. The girls discuss developing good behavior, such as caring about others, and avoiding negative behavior like using their strength or power to frighten or hurt someone who is weaker.”
Each group carries out a service project. The girls at Washington International School are running and taking donations for a Washington-based group, Girls Gotta Run Foundation. The money is used to buy shoes for girls in Ethiopia who are training to be professional runners. And it also helps keep them in school.

A. She thinks it is too easy to fit into it.
B. She thinks girls shouldn’t try to fit into it.
C. She thinks it is out-of-date now.

Question: I have been learning English for about 7 years. 51 And I still can’t make myself understood in English. However, I love learning English. How can I learn English well Please help me.
Answer: Many people have asked me this question. 52 Here I will give you several tips for learning English.
● 53
First of all, you must want to learn. If you are not interested in learning English, no class will help you and no book will help you. So you have to be honest with yourself. Ask yourself, “Do I really want to learn English ” If you can’t answer “yes” to this question, it is better for you to set English aside until you’re ready and willing to learn.
● Set goals (目标).
To learn English well, you must set some goals. 54 It will also help you to see your progress. Ask yourself, “What are my goals What areas would I like to improve ” Think about what your goals are, and review once in a while to see that you are making progress toward your goals.
● Practice, practice, and practice.
After you have set your goals, you have a better idea of what you need to practice. Just like the athlete whose goal is the Olympics must train daily, you as a language learner must practice language every day to make progress toward your goal. 55
A. Want to learn.B. I think it is not easy to learn it well.C. Make friends with some Americans online.D. Reading is a very good way to learn new words.E. The answers are as different as the people asking the question.F. The more you practice, the more progress you will make.G. Having goals will help you remember what areas you want to work on.
