One morning in 2006, the staff at another American high school were 1to find a pink car on the roof. The car even had question marks painted all over it! The staff believed that many students must have worked together to complete this.

The American trick in 2006 was 2a copy of British trick in 1958. That year, at the University of Cambridge, a car appeared on the roof of a building that was five storeys high. It caused a lot of trouble for police and firefighters as they had to cut the car into pieces to get it down. They couldn’t find out who was 3, and the trick made headlines around the world. It was only fifty years 4that the students in the case proved who they were and how they played the excellent trick.

【題目】 Watching American TV and movies is a surprisingly free way to learn English. You learn modern culture, commonly used slang(俚語(yǔ)), improve listening, and most of all, it’s super fun.

The language used in popular TV shows and movies actually represents real life. Sometimes native(母語(yǔ)的)speakers even use new phrases they learn from movies. The slang today is much different from the slang used by even my parents. Real spoken English changes quite quickly and it’s important to know what’s cool now and what sounds old and stupid.

Most people studying English by watching TV and movies make one or two MISTAKES however.

1.Watching with subtitles(譯文對(duì)白字幕)

This is a huge mistake because you learn a lot less than you think. Your eyes naturally go to the subtitles and often the translations aren’t great. It’s impossible to translate slang and jokes anyway. Another thing is that your brain is busy reading your own language. This really slows down the learning.

2.Watching stuff(素材資料)

Turning the subtitles off isn’t enough if you don’t understand 100% of the movie or TV show. It’s not enough to get the “general idea”. I’ve watched so many movies and TV shows with people who aren’t from English-speaking countries, and they always miss the real funny parts, because movies and TV shows are designed for English-speaking people. They don’t need anything explained to them but you do. If you are learning English you need to have these slang expressions and jokes explained to you. Then you will totally “get” everything and your English level will improve like crazy.

No matter what your level is, I’m sure you’ll learn something from this. Check it out.

1What’s super fun according to this passage?

A.Learning about modern culture.B.Learning to use common slang.

C.Improving listening.D.Watching American TV and movies.

2________represent the changes of real spoken English.

A.Popular TV shows and moviesB.Slang from popular TV shows and movies

C.Native speakersD.Slang used by my parents

3Why is it a huge mistake for English learners to watch TV or movies with subtitles?

Because ________.

A.the translation isn’t rightB.it slows down your reading

C.no slang or jokes can be translatedD.you learn much less than you think

4Which of the following is NOT right?

A.We should turn off the subtitles when watching TV shows and movies in English.

B.The stuff can help us understand the movies and TV shows totally.

C.We should get the general idea by watching the subtitles.

D.Because we are not English speakers, we need something explained to us.

5We will miss the real funny parts of the TV shows and movies if we ________.

A.don’t understand the English slang or the jokesB.watch the stuff about the shows and movies

C.improve our English like crazyD.have these slang expressions and jokes explained to us
