in order to know a foreign language thoroughly(完全地), four things are necessary. Firstly, 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(猶豫). 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 succeed 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 ( 一覽表 ) 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 practice speaking and writing the language whenever we can.
小題1: the most import things to learn a foreign language are
A．understanding and speaking
B．listening,speaking,reading and writing
C．writing and understanding
D．memorizing and listening
小題2: 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 remembers lists of words and their meanings
D．he often hesitates to practice speaking it.
小題3: Which is the most important in learning a foreign language?
A．a(chǎn) good memory.B．speaking.
C．practice.D．writing.
小題4: “Learn though use” means___________.
A．we use a language in order to learn it

The search for life in the universe took a step forward last month with the opening of the Allen Telescope Array(艾倫望遠鏡陣列) in Hat Creek, California. The telescopes were partly made possible by a gift of twenty-five million dollars from Paul Allen. The total cost of the project is already fifty million dollars.
At present, there are 42 radio telescopes working at the Hat Creek observatory. The signals they receive are combined to create what is equal to a single, very large telescope. The telescope will be used to observe objects like exploding stars, black holes and other objects that are predicted but have not yet been observed. Seth Shostak of the SETI Institute says this is the first telescope whose main purpose is to search for signals from intelligent life in space. The SETI Institute is based in Mountain View, California. The organization supports the search for other life forms in the universe.
What makes the Allen Telescope Array unusual is that it can collect and study information from a wide area of the sky. In addition, the 42 telescopes can study information about several projects at the same time. That means studies of large areas of the sky can be made faster than ever before.
Some officials think the Allen Telescope Array will be completed in three more years. 350 individual radio telescopes are planned. The new abilities of the Allen Telescope Array will make searching for stars similar to the sun much faster.
An earlier search by SETI, Project Phoenix, studied about 800 stars to a distance of 240 light years. The project ended in 2004. With the Allen Telescope Array, astronomers hope to gather thousands of times more information in the search for life beyond our planet.
小題1:The main purpose of the Allen Telescope Array is          .
A．to serve for the research of weather predication
B．to prepare for the wars against life from the universe
C．to search for signals from intelligent life in space
D．to observe exploding stars, black holes and other objects
小題2:From this passage we know that         .
A．the 42 radio telescopes at Hat Creek observatory can work together
B．the total cost of the project came from Paul Allen
C．Hat Creek observatory can receive signals from all parts of the worm
D．Hat Creek observatory is operated by an American named Paul Allen
小題3:Which of the following is TRUE according to this passage?
A．The Allen Telescope Array takes much more room than former telescopes.
B．The Allen Telescope Array is still being built at present in the United States.
C．Another 42 radio telescopes will be fixed in the Allen Telescope Array.
D．The SETI Institute is against the search for other life forms in the universes.
小題4:With the help of the Allen Telescope Array,         .
A．a(chǎn)stronomers can gather more information than before from other planets
B．humans will have more chances to live on other planets than before
C．humans will be able to find more natural resources on other planets
D．scientists will be able to find more natural resources from other planets

Almost everyone suffers from a headache sometimes.But some people suffer from repeated, frequent headaches.
What is headache? What causes it? What can be done about a headache? What research is being done on headaches?
The dictionary defines(下定義) headache simply as “a pain in the head.” What most people mean by headache is a pain which lasts several minutes or hours.It covers the whole head, or one side of it, or perhaps the front or the back of the head.To add to the confusion(困惑) about a definition, some people call tight feeling in the head a headache.
A headache is important because it can be the first warning of a serious condition which probably could be controlled if discovered early.If a person removes the warning, day after day, with a pain-killer, he may pass the point of easy control.
The professional name for covering up a symptom(癥狀) is “masking” (遮蔽).A headache specialist once said, “Masking symptoms is not the best way of treatment.” He compared taking a pain-killer for a headache before a cause is known with taking iron pills for anemia(貧血癥) while bleeding continues undiscovered.He added, “Sometimes it is wiser to stand still than to advance in darkness.”
A headache is important also because it affects normal, happy living.The employee with a headache does less work.In a flash of temper he may upset his fellow workers or customers, causing a direct or indirect loss to his organization.The mother with a headache suffers and disturbs the family.She upsets her husband and children.
小題1:Which is true according to the passage?
A．Headache has no effect on others.
B．Headache may cover the whole body.
C．Headache may last several minutes or hours.
D．Headache is just the tight feeling in the head.
小題2:The sentence underlined in Paragraph 5 means ______.
A．you should not advance in darkness whatever happens
B．you’d better do nothing before you know how to deal with it
C．you’d better still stand there without moving when it is dark at night
D．you should take some pain-killers for your headache if you want to cover it up
小題3:What may the writer talk about in the following paragraph?
A．Treatments of headachesB．The definition of headaches
C．Symptom of headachesD．Bad effects of a headache
小題4:The passage mainly tells us______.
A．the reason of headache
B．headache and its effect
C．everyone suffers from a headache
D．a(chǎn) headache is a symptom of something serious

These days, young children can enjoy directly what it is like to be a marine biologist (海洋生物學家) at a marine association. What they discover can lead them to appreciate and protect the ocean and also the animals living in it.
At the present time, learning isn’t only limited to the classroom. It’s quite common for kids to learn from outdoor experiences. Teachers commonly take their pupils on field trips to museums as well as other interesting areas. If you wish to help pupils to take care of the ocean, one of the best areas to take them to is a marine association, the place where the ocean biome (生物圈) is shown.
Taking your pupils to a marine association is a prefect way to help them learn. Education professionals agree that there are topics that children can learn more successfully whenever they experience them directly.
Several organizations that focused on protecting the ocean now operate on the coast of different areas in America and all around the world. It’s quite common for marine associations nowadays to open their doors several times a week to kids, parents, and ocean lovers to learn more about the ocean biome.
A marine association has different programs for children of different ages. You’ll find programs that are developed specially for pupils. Pupils are involved in interactive (互動的) learning. This learning experience allows young children to recognize the value of the role each species performs in their environment. They not only get to research creatures from the ocean, but they also get to see, touch, and smell most of these animals and plants. This type of exposure offers students an idea about the life of a marine scientist. It could help them choose a career afterwards.
These programs are generally held on Saturdays and Sundays in order that kids and parents can have more hours in which to have fun. Teachers who want to arrange these activities for their students can call a local marine association near them.
小題1:According to the text, pupils can have a better understanding of the ocean biome by _______.
A．learning about it from books
B．going to a marine association
C．a(chǎn)ttending marine biologists’ meetings
D．taking part-time jobs at marine associations
小題2:In Paragraph 5, the author mainly wants to tell us _______.
A．the advantage of learning at a marine association
B．different activities offered by a marine association
C．a(chǎn) marine association’s working conditions
D．the way to develop children’s interest in ocean
小題3:The underlined word “exposure” in Paragraph 5 probably means _______.
A．the way of explaining something
B．the way of choosing a career
C．a(chǎn) marine association’s working condition

The massive magnitude（震級） 8.8 earthquake that struck the west coast of Chile moved the entire city of Concepcion at least 10 feet to the west, and moved other parts of South America as far apart as the Falkland Islands and Fortaleza, Brazil.
These measurements, produced from data gathered by researchers from four universities and several agencies, paint a much clearer picture of the power behind this earthquake, believed to be the fifth-most-powerful since instruments have been available to measure earthquake.
Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina moved about 1 inch to the west. And Chile's capital, Santiago, moved about 11 inches to the west-southwest. The cities of Valparaiso and Mendoza, Argentina, northeast of Concepcion, also moved.
The quake's epicenter (震中) was in a region of South America that's part of the so-called “ring of fire,” an area of major seismic（地震的） stresses which encircles（環(huán)繞，包圍） the Pacific Ocean. All along this line, the plates on which the continents move press against each other.
Mike Bevis, professor of earth sciences at Ohio State, has led a project since 1993 that has been measuring crustal（地殼的）movement in the Central and Southern Andes. The effort is called the Central and Southern Andes GPS Project, or CAP.
Ben Brooks, an associate researcher with the School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology at the University of Hawaii, said that the event, offers a unique opportunity to better understand the seismic processes that control earthquakes.
“We now have modern, precise instruments to evaluate this event, and because the site borders a continent, we will be able to get evidences of the changes it caused.” said Brooks.
小題1:What is the main idea of the passage?
A．The earthquake in Chile was dangerous.
B．Earthquake often happen in Chile
C．The earthquake in Chile moved cities.
D．The earthquake in Chile had been predicted.
小題2:Which of the following cities moved to the west most?
A．ConcepcionB．Buenos AiresC．SantiagoD．Valparaiso
小題3: The underlined words “ring of fire” in Paragraph 4 refer to __________.
A．the fire and the earthquake
B．the beautiful places around the ocean
C．the plate on which South America lies
D．the area around the Pacific Ocean
小題4: What do we know about CAP?
A．It is under the leadership of Mike Bevis.
B．It observes earthquakes worldwide.
C．It is designed to watch climate changes.
D．It mainly studies the Pacific Ocean.

Aggie Bonfire (篝火) was a long-standing tradition at Texas A&M University as part of the college rivalry (競爭) with the University of Texas at Austin. For 90 years, Texas A&M students—known as Aggies—built and burned a bonfire on campus each autumn. Known to the Aggie community simply as "Bonfire", the annual autumn event symbolized Aggie students' "burning desires”. The bonfire was traditionally lit around Thanksgiving in connection with festivities surrounding the annual college football game.
Although early Bonfires were little more than piles of trash, as time passed, the annual event became more organized. Over the years the bonfire grew bigger, setting the world record in 1969. Bonfire remained a university tradition for decades until, in 1999, a collapse during construction killed twelve people—eleven students and one former student—and injured twenty-seven others.
The accident led Texas A&M to declare a pause on an official Bonfire. However, in 2002, a student-sponsored-and-off-campus "Student Bonfire" came up.
In 2003, the event became known as Student Bonfire. In a design approved by a professional engineer, Student Bonfire uses a wedding cake design, but, in a departure from tradition, every log in the stack (堆) touches the ground. For added support, four 24 feet poles are spaced evenly around the stack and then bolted to the 45 feet center pole with a steel pipe. Since the group does not receive funding, Student Bonfire charges a fee to each attendee to cover expenses. Attendance for Student Bonfire ranges from 8,000–15,000 people and the event is held in Brazos County or one of the surrounding counties.
小題1:When did Aggie Bonfire come into being?
A．In 2003.B．1999.
C．1909.D．2002.
小題2: Which of the following statements is true according to the above passage?
A．Texas A&M University started Aggie Bonfire.
B．The University of Texas at Austin started Students Bonfire.
C．Texas A&M University and The University of Texas started Students Bonfire.
D．Texas A&M University and The University of Texas started Aggie Bonfire.
小題3:Why did Aggie Bonfire once stop?
A．Too many people wanted to join in it.
B．Some serious accidents occurred during the activity.
C．It ran out of fund and then stopped.
D．There were no official supports.
小題4: Which of the following might serve as the best title of the whole passage?
A．From Aggie Bonfire to Student Bonfire.
B．A brief history of American Bonfire.
C．Why not join Bonfire?
D．Bonfire in Texas of the United States.

When prehistoric man arrived in new parts of the world, something strong happened to the large animals; they suddenly became extinct. Smaller species survived; the large, slow-growing animals were easy game, and were quickly hunted to extinction. 
Now something similar could be happening in the oceans. That the seas are being over-fished has been known for years and researchers such as Ransom Myers and Boris Worm have shown how fast things are changing. They have looked at half a century of data from fisheries around the world. Their methods do not attempt to estimate the actual biomass (the amount of living biological matter) of fish species in particular parts of the ocean, but rather changes in that biomass over time. According to their latest paper published in Nature, the biomass of large predators (animals that kill and eat other animals) inanes fishery is reduced on average by 80% within 15 years of the start of exploitation. In some long-fished areas, it has halved again since then.
Dr. Worm acknowledges that these figures are conservative (保守的). One reason for this is that fishing technology has improved. Today’s vessels can find their prey using satellites and sonar, which were not available 50 years ago. That means a higher proportion of what is in the sea is being caught, so the real difference between present and past is likely to be worse than the one recorded by changes in catch sizes. In the early days, too, longlines would have been more saturated with fish. Some individuals would therefore not have been caught, since baited hooks would have been available to trap them, leading to an underestimate of fish stocks in the past. Furthermore, in the early days of longline fishing, a lot of fish were lost to sharks after they had been hooked. That is no longer a problem, because there are fewer sharks around noise.
Dr. Myers and Dr. Worm argue that their work gives a correct baseline, which future management efforts must take into account. They believe the date support an idea current among marine biologists, that of the “shifting baseline”. The notion is that people have failed to detect the massive changes which have happened in the ocean because they have been looking back only a relatively short time into the past. That matters because theory suggests that the maximum sustainable yield that can be cropped from a fishery comes when the biomass of a target species is about 50% of its original levels. Most fisheries are well below that, which is a bad way to do business.
小題1:The aim of the extinction of large prehistoric animals is to suggest that _______.
A．large animal were not easy to survive in the changing environment
B．small species survived as large animals disappeared
C．large sea animals may face the same threat today.
D．Slow-growing fish outlive fast-growing ones
小題2:We can infer from Dr Myers and Dr. Worm’s paper that _______.
A．the stock of large predators in some old fisheries has reduced by 90%
B．there are only half as many fisheries are there were 15 years ago
C．the catch sizes in new fisheries are only 20% of the original amount
D．the number of larger predators dropped faster in new fisheries than in the old
小題3:By saying these figures are conservative (line 1, paragraph 3), Dr worm means that_______.
A．fishing technology has improved rapidly
B．then catch-sizes are actually smaller then recorded
C．the marine biomass has suffered a greater loss
D．the date collected so far are out of date.
小題4:Dr Myers and other researchers hold that _______.
A．people should look for a baseline that can’t work for a longer time
B．fisheries should keep the yield below 50% of the biomass
C．the ocean biomass should restore its original level.
D．people should adjust the fishing baseline to changing situation.
小題5:The author seems to be mainly concerned with most fisheries’ _______.
A．management efficiency
B．biomass level
C．catch-size limits
D．technological application.

American researchers found females are the more talkative sex because of a special “l(fā)anguage protein(蛋白質(zhì))” in the brain.
The study, conducted by neuroscientists （神經(jīng)學家）and psychologist from the University of Maryland, concluded that women talked more because they had more of the Foxp2 protein. The research, published in the Journal of Neuroscience, found that higher levels were found among humans that were women but in rats that were males. Their findings came after it was previously claimed that ladies speak about 20,000 words a day – over 13,000 more than men. "This study is one of the first to report a sex difference in the expression of a language-associated protein in humans or animals,” said Prof Margaret McCarthy, who led the study. In their study, the researchers attempted to determine what might make male rats more vocal than their female friends.
They separated four-day-old rats from their mothers and then counted the number of times they cried out in the “ultrasonic range”, the frequencies higher than humans can hear, over five minutes. While both sexes called out hundreds of cries, the males called out twice as often, they found. But when the pups were returned to their mother’s cage, she fussed over her sons first. Tests conducted on the parts of the brain known to be associated with vocalcalls showed the male pups have up to twice as much Foxp2 protein as the females. The researchers then increased the production in the brains of female pups and reduced it in males. This led to the female rats crying out more often and their mothers showing more interest to them. In contrast, males became less “talkative”.
The researchers then tested samples from ten children, aged between three and five, which showed that females had up to 30 per cent more of the Foxp2 protein than males, in a brain area key to language in humans.
“Based on our observations, we assume higher levels of Foxp2 in girls and higher levels of Foxp2 in male rats is an indication that Foxp2 protein levels are associated with the more communicative sex,” said Prof McCarthy.
"Our results imply Foxp2 as a component of the neurobiological basis of sex differences in vocal communication in mammals."
小題1:From the second paragraph, we can learn that ________.
A．women always speak more words than men
B．men and male rats have low levels of language protein
C．women and male rats have similar levels of Foxp2
D．McCarthy isn’t the first to find females more talkative
小題2:The underlined phrase “fussed over” in the third paragraph probably means______.
A．paid attention to B．related toC．put pressure onD．counted on
小題3:The researchers carried out the experiments on rats in order to _______.
A．test which part of the brain is key to language in rats and humans
B．prove the levels of Foxp2 protein in humans and rats are different
C．determine the reason why female rats are more talkative than male rats
D．discover the association between Foxp2protein and vocal communication
小題4:Which of the following can be the best title for the passage ?
A．Tests on humans and ratsB．Why women are the talkative sex
C．Sex differences in Foxp2 proteinD．Foxp2 protein determines oral ability
