Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Language as a System of Symbols(符号)
Of all systems of symbols，language is the most highly developed. It has been pointed out that human beings，by agreement，can make anything stand for anything. Human beings have agreed，in the course of centuries of mutual(相互的) dependency，to let the various noises that they can produce with their lungs，throats，tongues，teeth，and lips systematically stand for certain happenings in their nervous systems. We call that system of agreements language.
There is no necessary connection between the symbol and that which it stands for. Just as social positions can be symbolized by feathers worn on the head，by gold on the watch chain，or by a thousand other things according to the culture we live in，so the fact of being hungry can be symbolized by a thousand different noises according to the culture we live in.
However obvious these facts may appear at first glance，they are actually not so obvious as they seem except when we take?special?pains to think about the subject. Symbols and the things they stand for are independent of each other，yet we all have a way of feeling as if，and sometimes acting as if，there were necessary connections. For example，there are people who feel that foreign languages are unreasonable by nature；foreigners have such funny names for things，and why can’t they call things by their right names？This feeling exhibits itself most strongly in those English and American tourists who seem to believe that they can make the natives of any country understand English if they shout loud enough. Like the little boy who is reported to have said，“Pigs are called pigs because they are such dirty animals，” they feel that the symbol is inherently(内在地) connected in some way with the things symbolized.
1.Language is a highly developed system of symbols because human beings 牋牋牋牋.
A. have made use of language for centuries
B. use our nervous systems to support language
C. have made various noises stand for any events
D. can make anything stand for anything by agreement
2.What can we conclude from Paragraph 2?
A. Different noises may mean different things.
B. Our culture determines what a symbol stands for.
C. The language we use symbolizes our social positions.
D. Our social positions determine the way we are dressed.
3.In Paragraph 3 the underlined phrase “take special pains” probably means “????????”.
A. try very hard
B. take our time
C. are very unhappy
D. feel especially painful
4.In Paragraph 3，the example of the little boy is used to show that 牋牋牋牋.
A. adults often learn from their young
B. 損ig is a dirty word because pigs are dirty
C. words are not connected with the things they stand for
D. people sometimes have wrong ideas about how language works
B
How words came into being is unknown. All we assume is that some early men invented certain sounds，in one way or another，to express thoughts and feelings，actions and things，so that they could talk with each other. Later they agreed upon certain signs，called letters，which could be put together to show those sounds，and which could be written down. Those sounds，whether spoken or written in letters，are called words.
The power of words，then，lies in their associations—the things they bring up to our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience；and the longer we live，the more certain words bring back to us the happy and sad events of our past；and the more we read and learn，the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which have powerful effects on our minds and feelings. This clever use of words is what we call literary style(文体).Above all，the real poet is a master of words. He can express his meaning in words which sing like music，and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them correctly，or they will make our speech silly and common.
1.We learn from the text that language might have begun with ????????.
A. expressions B. actions C. signs D. sounds
2.What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2?
A. The learning of new words.
B. The importance of old words.
C. The relation of human experience with words.
D. The gradual change and development of words.
3.In the last paragraph，what does the author suggest that we should do?
A. Use words skillfully.
B. Make musical speeches.
C. Learn poems by heart.
D. Associate with listeners.

III.短文填空
Many English language learners believe that the 56.????????(great) difficulty with listening comprehension(理解) is that the listener cannot control how quickly a speaker speaks. They feel that what the speaker says disappears 57.???????? they can follow. This frequently means that students 58.牋牋牋牋 are learning to listen cannot keep up. They are so busy 59.牋牋牋牋(work) out the meaning of one part of what they hear that they miss the next part. Or they 60.牋牋牋牋(simple) ignore a whole section because they fail to catch it quickly enough. Another difficulty is that the listener is not always in a position to get the speaker to repeat what has been said. And，of course，repeats cannot 61.????????(ask) for when listening to the radio or watching TV.
Besides,62.????????(choose) of vocabulary is in the hands of the speaker，not the listener. Very often，for people listening to a foreign language，an unknown word can be like a suddenly 63.????????(drop) stone making them stop and think about the meaning of the word，64.????????(cause) them to miss the next part of the speech. In listening，it really is a case of “He who 65.????????(stop) to work out the meaning is lost”.

送友人
李白
青山横北郭，
白水绕东城。
此地一为别，
孤蓬万里征。
浮云游子意，
落日故人情。
挥手自兹去，
萧萧班马鸣。
FAREWELL TO A FRIEND
Translated by Xu Yuanchong
Green mountains bar the northern sky;
White grids the eastern town.
Here is the place to say goodbye;
You’ll drift like lonely thistledown.
With floating cloud you’ll float away;
Like parting day I’ll part from you.
You wave your hand and go your way;
Our steeds still neigh, “adieu,adieu!”

Betty Azar is a world famous expert on teaching English grammar. Here are some of her opinions.
Why do students need to learn grammar?
When teachers are deciding which grammar points to teach，they should first ask two questions. First，will understanding the point help students be understood—will it help them understand better？Next，will learning the grammar point help students be acceptable as English speakers?
People usually think that grammar is all about memorizing rules. In fact，grammar is not just learning rules. It is a way to help students along the way to communication.
Teachers should know that students do not all learn in the same way. Each may have a different learning style when it comes to learning grammar. Some may see a pattern and understand the rule. Others need explanations and more practice. 揃ut to teach grammar as a subject matter and test it as though you were testing the memorization of dates in history is sure to bore everybody and not reach the goals that you are trying to reach梥uccessful communication experiences.
Why do some teachers hate teaching grammar?
Many teachers are not comfortable teaching grammar because they do not know how to answer their students questions. 揗ost native speakers of English didn’t learn it in school，” she says. “If you don’t know any grammar of your own language and then you are asked to teach it，it’s possible that your students may know more grammar than you and you can’t answer their questions.”
Can teaching grammar really be fun?
Teachers should learn to make the teaching of grammar fun. She says，“My students enjoy learning grammar as much as I enjoy teaching it. I think grammar is fascinating. It is the glue that holds language together. It is really beautiful when you get to know it. Grammar is quite a remarkable(不同寻常的) thing.”
1.What should teachers do before teaching grammar points?
A. Ask themselves questions.
B. Develop a good teaching style.
C. Find out students’ learning needs.
D. Let students memorize some rules.
2.What does Betty Azar do?
A.A student. B.A reporter. C.A teacher. D.A writer.
3.Betty Azar thinks grammar is ????????.
A. boring B. beautiful C. hard to teach D. easy to learn
4.According to Betty Azar，????????.
A. grammar should be taught as a subject
B. native speakers don’t need to learn grammar
C. different students learn grammar in different ways
D. it’s useful to memorize rules when learning grammar

Learning English can sometimes seem like a difficult thing to do—the grammar can be very confusing and spoken English seems to be changing all the time. But，it is not as hard as it seems and the most important thing for any learner to achieve is confidence with the language. If students are nervous about using English or worried about making mistakes，they won’t feel like practicing，and without practice they cannot make progress.


General English courses aim to give students that confidence. Whether students are complete beginners or advanced learners，schools want them to be confident about using English by the time they finish their course. To do this，schools have developed General English courses which combine a range of different teaching methods.
In class，teachers encourage students to work together so that they can practice new words and grammar. They always try and make this class work interesting and fun. Many schools are equipped with language labs and libraries where students can work on their own with audio tapes and video and computers. And outside the classroom，the learning continues，where students are meeting together socially，visiting local attractions，or at home with a host family.
Most schools offer General English courses which are either part-time—usually 15 hours per week—or full-time，which can be as much as 40 hours. This type of course is available all year round. Students can normally start a General English course every Monday，and can study for as long as they like. Other types of General English courses may last a minimum number of days or weeks. Some of the most popular General English courses are available during the summer holiday period. These are usually part-time，and schools organize social activities for students in their free time. Some schools offer special activities like sports.
General English courses also give students the chance to discover new parts of Britain. With so many schools offering this type of course，students can go almost anywhere，and while they are studying，they will have a chance to explore the countryside or towns and meet local people. Whenever they go in Britain they are assured high quality courses.
1.If English learners are nervous about using English，????????.
A. they won’t feel like practicing
B. they won’t go to England
C. they won’t go to any language class
D. they won’t talk to teachers
2.Teachers help students practice new words and grammar in class by means of ????????.
A. encouraging students to work together
B. trying and making the class work interesting and fun
C. making students speak English all the time
D. both A and B
3.Which of the following is NOT true?
A. General English courses help students practice English not only in classroom but also outside the classroom.
B. We can learn from the passage that there are many schools offering General English courses across Britain.
C. General English courses are designed for beginners of English as a second language.
D. The aim of General English courses is to make students confident about using English.
B
When I was 16 years old，I made my first visit to the United States. It wasn’t the first time I had been abroad. Like most English children，I learned French at school and I had often been to France，so I was used to speaking a foreign language to 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 misunderstanding began at the airport. I was looking for a public telephone to give my friend Danny a ring and tell her that I had arrived. A friendly old man saw me looking like being lost and asked 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? But aren’t you a bit young？”
“Who is talking about marriage？” I replied.“I just 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 did meet up，Danny explained the misunderstanding to me.
“Don’t worry，” she said to me.“I had many difficulties at first. There are lots of words which the Americans use differently in meaning from us British. You’ll soon get used to all the funny things they say. But most of the time British and American people can understand each other！”
1.Where was the writer from?
A. He was from America.
B. He was from France.
C. He was from England.
D. He was from China.
2.The writer wanted .
A.to buy a ring for his friend
B.to make a call to his friend
C.to go to the telephone company
D. his friend to see him off
3.From the passage we can see that “give somebody a ring” _____________.
A. means the same in America as in England
B. means “call somebody” to the old man
C. means “be going to get married”
D. has different meanings in America and in England

It is necessary but difficult for English beginners to memorize new words，and long lists of words seem to make the task impossible. They are puzzled why they try to memorize words with great efforts but forget them easily. That’s why there are often inquiries about how to memorize new words. 1 Here are some tips to help.
2 We too often separate the process of new words memorization from pronunciation. In fact these two can be combined and each will enhance the other. Saying the word to ourselves helps activate hearing memory，which helps the memory. 3 The more familiar we are with the word，the greater chance we will have to keep it for the rest of our life.
Never memorize single English words. 4 Relate the word to terms we already know，either as synonym(同义词) or antonym(反义词).For example，the word “gargantuan” is similar in meaning to words “gigantic”，“huge” and “large”.Make an order of words：“small，medium，large，gigantic and gargantuan”.
Create a mental image of the word that involves strong emotions. Think “the gargantuan whale is going to swallow me whole”.
Learning English words requires action. Complaining how difficult it is to memorize new words will be of little help. 5 Have a try with ten words a day and you will see what a difference you will make in your English learning.
A. So take action right now.
B. Speak the word while memorizing it.
C. Memorizing new words is very important.
D. Actually，some have given up learning new words.
E. In fact，learning new words needn’t be that difficult.
F. Make as many associations and connections as possible.
G. The sound of word helps us recall the spelling and familiarizes us with the word.

I’m delighted to learn that you like Chinese characters. It is true that Chinese characters are difficult to write，especially for foreigners，but don’t worry. I’m glad to offer you some suggestions.
Firstly，practice with patience and you’ll make progress in time. Moreover，as proper guidance will help you learn much more easily，it’s a good idea to learn some basic writing skills either from a Chinese teacher or from teaching videos on the Internet. What’s more，you’d better use copybooks as we Chinese do in the early stage.
I hope my advice will be of some help to you.
