Here are a few tips we’ve put together to help you learn English well.

Speak, speak, speak

Practise speaking as often as you can—even speaking to yourself is good practice.

Try recording yourself whenever you can. Compare your pronunciation with some famous persons’, see how you can do better and have another go. If you do this several times, you will find that each time is better than the last.

Why not learn with someone else?

It helps if you can learn with someone else. If you can persuade a friend or a family member to study with you, it will make you keep working.

Don’t get stuck by a word you don’t know.

Practise improvising(即興的)ways of getting your meaning across when speaking spontaneously(本能地), even if you don’t know the exact words or phrases. Think of things you might want to say whenever you have spare time. Use facial expressions, hand movements, anything to get your meaning across.

Language learning is also about intuition(直覺).

Guesswork is an important way to learn a new language. When listening to recorded material, you aren’t expected to understand everything at once. If you play the same piece several times, you will most probably understand something new each time.

Build up your vocabulary.

A wide vocabulary is the key to successful language learning but don’t try to learn too much at once. It’s best to study often, for short periods of time. Take at most six or seven items of vocabulary and learn them. Put them into sentences to remember them in your mind, then come back to them later.

And above all, have fun!

1.Why should one have himself recorded when practicing speaking?

A. To improve his speaking.

B. To record his own progress.

C. To encourage others to start.

D. To become a famous person.

2.It is implied(暗示) in the passage that _______ is helpful when you are learning English.

A. a good dictionary B. a good school

C. excellent pronunciation D. body language

3.According to the passage, one should ______ when you are learning English.

How long has 3-D technology been around? Most of us might think of crowds of teenagers in a 1950’s movie house watching Bwana Devil in 3-D. But 3-D technology made its first appearance on the scene in 1838 with the first stereoscope(體視鏡). And the first actual 3-D movie was a 1903 film called Le Ariveed’un Train.

Although it has such a long history, the technology has still remained based on one simple principle-----to make 3-D effects you must find a way to project two slightly different pictures to each eye. Modern 3-D technology works by rapidly flickering(閃動) two versions of the movie and projecting them onto each eye. The brain does the rest of the work, combining the two pictures together into one and giving the show the appearance of depth, the third dimension.

But does this exposure, especially long exposures, cause harm to the child’s developing brain and visual system? Unfortunately, long-term studies on new flicker digital 3-D technology and children aren’t yet available. We do not know if regular or daily 3-D viewing over years affects the developing visual system, although older 3-D methods basically do the same thing and are not considered harmful.

The question of possible harm in modern 3-D use in TV is really based on two facts: the amount of time children will now be watching 3-D TV each day and the sensitivity some children show in reaction to 3-D viewing. It is difficult to make actual lab studies of longer term 3-D viewing in children because of the possible harm of the experiment. Researchers will have to wait until 3-D TV technology is already in the marketplace for a number of years, then check heavy 3-D TV watchers and compare them with non-watchers.

With a 3-D television technology in the home, we will soon be able to answer the question of whether or not longer and more frequent periods of 3-D exposure cause more changes in the visual system. We may find that the bigger problem is the introduction of a new technology that leads to even more time spent on TV rather than playing outdoors.

1.According to the text, 3-D technology ______

A. was refused by people when it first appeared.

B. will soon change the way we watch TV.

C. does no good to our visual system.

D. has a history of nearly 200 years.

2. Paragraph 2 is mainly about________

A. how 3-D technology works.

B. why 3-D movies are popular

C. the history of 3-D technology.

D. the influence of 3-D technology.

3.What’s the method suggested in paragraph 4?

A. To wait and see B. To carry out lab studies

C. To stop making 3-D movies D. To improve 3-D technology

4.The author’s purpose in writing the text is to _______

A. ask children not to watch 3-D movies

B. discuss if 3-D viewing is harmful to children.

C. introduce the advantages of 3-D technology.

D. predict the development of 3-D technology.

During the summer vacation this year, I thought I should do anything meaningful instead of staying at home, so I get a job at a KFC fast food restaurant, working there as a cleaner. I worked seven hours a day for three week. The job was hard and bored , which made me very tired that I nearly gave it up half way. And I went on with determination.

Do you want to be pretty? You are the only one who can decide you’re truly pretty. To achieve this, first of all, you should be pretty on the inside. In other words, you have to understand that your beauty comes from yourself, not from any outside source(來源). To practice feeling this way, you can write a list of all the good things about yourself. This includes things like helping someone carrying something or listening to a friend. You also can write a list of things that you think are beautiful about yourself. Maybe you have big brown eyes, a cute nose or a great laugh. What’s more, every morning, when you wake up, go to the bathroom mirror, smile at yourself and say aloud, “I am happy.” The more you say it, the more you’ll convince(使…相信) your brain that it’s true.

To be pretty on the inside, at the same time, don’t forget to be attractive by being kind and respectful. So listen to people when they talk, and they’ll notice you’ve taken an interest in their words. Help others out when they are in need, and also don’t judge other people.

On the other hand, you also should be pretty on the outside. For this, you can do something to change your appearance. For example, change your hairstyle. Wear clothes in which you feel comfortable. Also you can give your skin some extra special care to make it look better.

In fact, the key to being pretty on the outside is working to be healthy. If you’re in poor health, you can’t look pretty on the outside. So, to keep healthy, have enough sleep every day and work out in a regular way.

What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, red? If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grays and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If you love green, you are strong-minded and determined. You wish to succeed and want other people to see you are successful. At least this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, and the effect that colors have on human beings. They tell us that we don't choose our favorite color as we grow up. If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.

A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful and more comfortable than a dark green one, and a red dress rings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing. Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark gray.

Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a new shirt or a few colorful things. Remember also that you will know your friends and your enemies better when you find out what colors they like and dislike. And don't forget that anyone can guess a lot about your character when you choose a piece of handkerchief.

1.According to this passage, _________.

A. one can choose his color preference

B. one is born with his color preference

C. one's color preference is changeable

D. one has to choose his favorite color as soon as he can see clearly

2.We would pay attention to colors because _______.

A. colors do have effect on our moods

B. colors may have effect on our work and study

C. light and bright colors make people happy

D. you can know your friends better by the colors they like or dislike

3.If someone choose a red handkerchief, he will probably do the following things EXCEPT _______.

A. Becoming a leader.

B. Joining the Student Union.

C. Always complain and blame others.

D. Getting along well with others.

4."I am feeling black" means ______.

A. I am feeling well B. I am very happy

C. I am excited D. I am depressed

5.The main idea of this passage is ________.

A. one's color preference shows one's character

B. you can brighten your life with wonderful colors

C. psychologists have been studying the meaning of color preference

D. one's color preference has something to do with his character and colors have effects on human beings
