If you are planning to learn a foreign language, here are some suggestions about language learning. I hope these suggestions can help improve your learning of a foreign language
Try to set aside some time every day for your study when your brain is at the most time for receiving information. It’s better to study for 30 minutes every day than for 3 hours once a week. If you can spare two or three hours a day, break them up into some periods to avoid brain getting tired.
Go over each lesson several times, perhaps once in the morning, once in the evening and once several days later. Give your brain time to understand the material, but the break between periods of study shouldn’t be too long, or you will forget most of what you’ve learned.
Make sure you’re comfortable with the bases of the language before learning the more advanced knowledge. Without full understanding of basic knowledge such as words pronunciation and spelling, you’ll find it very difficult to learn more.
Setting proper targets is a good way to encourage yourself. You could set yourself a time limit or aim for a certain level.
Once you have mastered the bases of the language, learn to apply them to the things that you’re interested in. In this way you are more likely to remember the words, phrases and grammatical constructions you meet.
You will find that at times you’re making rapid progress, while sometimes you seem to stand still or even go backwards. This is normal when learning a language, so don’t be discouraged.
Making mistakes in a foreign language is nothing to worry about. What matters is getting your message across, not whether you use all the right words, tenses, cases, etc. If you cannot think of the exact words, try using other ones.
小題1:What is the best time plan for studying a foreign language ?
A．A long period every day.B．Several short periods every day.
C．A long period once a week.D．Several short periods a week.
小題2:The break between periods of study shouldn’t be too long, because ___________.
A．you will be unable to go over a lesson for several times
B．you will be too tired to continue your study
C．you will waste a lot of time for study
D．you will forget what you are trying to learn easily
小題3:If you don’t fully understand the basic knowledge, you will ____________.
A．be unable to go on with your studyB．be uncomfortable with yourself
C．feel it very difficult to learn moreD．stop learning more in a short time
小題4:According to the author, which of the following is NOT true ?
A．Setting a goal can help you make rapid progress.
B．you should use what you’ve learned frequently to remember them.
C．Sometimes you may not make any progress.
D．Mistakes are quite normal in learning a language.
小題5:The purpose of this passage is ____________.

There are two factors which determine an individual's intelligence. The first is the sort of brain he is born with. Human brains differ considerably, some being more capable than others. But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with, an individual will have a low order of intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn. So the second factor is what happens to the individual—the sort of environment in which he is reared (培養(yǎng)). If an individual is handicapped (妨礙) environmentally, it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable.
The importance of environment in determining an individual's intelligence can be demonstrated by the case history of the identical twins, Peter and Mark X. Being identical, the twins had identical brains at birth, and their growth processes were the same. When the twins were three months old, their parents died, and they were placed in separate foster homes. Peter was reared by parents of low intelligence in an isolated community with poor educational opportunities. Mark was reared in the home of well-to-do parents who had been to college. He was read to as a child, sent to good schools, and given every opportunity to be stimulated intellectually. This environmental difference continued until the twins were in their late teens, when they were given tests to measure their intelligence. Mark's I.Q. was 125, twenty-five points higher than the average and fully forty points higher than his identical brother. Given equal opportunities, the twins, having identical brains, would have tested at roughly the same level.
小題1:This passage can be best titled_________.
A．Intelligence and Environment
B．Measuring Your Intelligence
C．The Case of Peter and Mark
D．How the brain Influences Intelligence
小題2:According to the passage, the average I.Q. is _____.
A．85B．125C．110D．100
小題3:The case history of the twins appears to support the conclusion that _______.
A．individual with identical brains seldom test at same level
B．a(chǎn)n individual's intelligence is determined only by his environment
C．changes of environment produce changes in the structure of the brain
D．lack of opportunity blocks the growth of intelligence
小題4:This passage suggests that an individual's I.Q.______.
A．can be increased by education
B．stays the same throughout his life
C．can be predicted at birth
D．is determined by his childhood

The use of lotteries (彩票) to allocate (分配) school places is to be reviewed by the British government because more than 20 percent of children are failing to get into their first-choice schools in parts of the country.
The struggle for secondary school places has reached record levels this year, increasing anxiety for hundreds of thousands of families. A report from 43 local authorities suggests that in many areas, up to a fifth of children face disappointment. Families in London are the hardest hit.
This week is admissions week, when about 570,000 families will receive notice about their child’s secondary school acceptance. As the recession (不景氣) forces more parents to consider a state education rather than a private one for their children, more than a third of local authorities have noted rises in the number of applications for secondary school places.
This year, just 62 percent of children in Richmond-upon-Thames got into their parents’ first-choice school, down from 64 percent last year. The council said this was caused by an increase in applications.
In another London authority, Tower Hamlet, 71.1 percent of children were admitted to their parents’ first choice school. In Leeds and Warwickshire, 85 percent were successful. In Derby the figure was 81 percent, while in Wiltshire, Stockport and Lincolnshire, the figure was 89 percent.
In many authorities, the figures are similar to those of last year. Exceptions include Brighton and Hove, which introduced a lottery system to allocate oversubscribed places last year. This year, it has seen a 3.5 percent increase in the number of children obtaining their first choice, bringing the total to nearly 88 percent. However, more than 5 percent of children in this area have been allocated a place at a school that was not among any of their choices.
Lotteries are being used at the government’s suggestion by a small number of oversubscribed schools in around twenty-five local authorities. They were meant to prevent middle-class parents from abusing the system by buying or renting homes close to the best schools.
小題1:According to the passage, more and more parents in Britain prefer to send their children to _______.
A．a(chǎn) state schoolB．a(chǎn) private school
C．a(chǎn) school in LondonD．a(chǎn) school in Brighton
小題2:Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A．The lottery system is certainly a good way to allocate school places.
B．Over one in five children fail to get into their first-choice schools in parts of Britain.
C．The lottery system is welcomed by parents around twenty-five local authorities.
D．The number of applications for secondly school places is falling this year.
小題3:In the following places, the highest preferred school admission rate is in _______.
A．Richmond-upon-ThamesB．Brighton and Hove
C．LincolnshireD．Derby
小題4:The purpose of using lottery system is to ________.
A．keep middle-class parents buying or renting homes close to the best schools.
B．increase the number of children obtaining their first choice
C．decrease the number of applications for some good schools
D．create equality between children from different social classes
小題5:The passage is most probably taken from _______.
A．a(chǎn) survey on educationB．a(chǎn) textbook on science
C．a(chǎn) speech on radioD．a(chǎn)n essay on economy

In my long years of teaching, I often ask my students to read the texts until they can recite them, and I tell them that recitation is an important part of their homework. However, some of my students are tired of doing so, thinking that it is both hard and useless. They argue that it takes a long time to recite a text from memory and text itself never appears in a test paper.
In my opinion, it naturally takes time to recite a text, but it is worth doing so. When you are able to recite a text, you are sure to be familiar with the words and expressions. When you need them in reading or writing or doing exercises, they will come to your mind quickly, and so you will give quick response to all kinds of language situation. How can we say that it is useless?
Besides, many students complain that they soon forget what they were once able to recite. This is true, but you don’t need to worry. While you are reading and forgetting the texts, your language   level is being raised.

Active listening is an essential skill in learning. It is when you listen carefully to make sure you understand and learn the information that is being conveyed.   1   Here are some things which can help you to listen actively.
Listen for the main point and major subpoints(次要點). Don’t just write everything down. Listen carefully and make sure you understand what the purpose of this lecture is. As you take down notes, keep the main point in mind and make sure you understand how these notes are related.
Listen for an organizational structure. Listen carefully to figure out how the ideas are organized and they will make more sense.

Listen for “signpost” words to indicate a transition for one point to the next, such as “next” and “finally” and numerical signposts like “first” or “third”.
Listen with your eyes.    3  Watch the teacher and be aware of how he or she uses hand gestures, eye contact and other body language to convey points.

Do you know blood types?
Special care must be taken in selecting new blood for a badly injured person, who would be killed by the transfusion (輸血) if the blood is too different from his own.
There are four basic types of blood A. B. A B. and O. Blood type, like hair and height, comes from parents. Basically, A and B can not be mixed. AB, sometimes called the universal recipient (萬能受血者), may receive A or B,. O type, often called the universal donor (萬能輸血者), gives his blood to any other group. Patients usually receive nothing, but salt or plasma (血漿) until their blood can be matched as exactly as possible in the blood bank of a hospital. There is a relationship between your blood type and your nationality (國籍). Among Europeans, about 42 % have type A while 45 % have type O. The fewest is the type B.
