Some people prefer to “pick up” the language by reading books or magazines, watching films, visiting the country where the target language is spoken, etc. They focus on the meanings of words and dont worry too much about the language forms used. This method often suits children if they find themselves in a foreign country or with foreign friends. However, this approach doesnt suit everyone if your aim is to become good at writing. Probably the most common way to learn a language is in a classroom with a teacher. The teacher can explain difficult words, give guidance, provide extra motivation and feedback on progress. Unfortunately, some people do not have very pleasant experiences of learning a language in the classroom. Language learning can be great fun. But your writing level will be increased most efficiently this way. Besides learning in a classroom, you can use a personal tutor(家教) and arrange a very flexible system of tuition. That means if you are busy at a particular time, you can still arrange to have your language tuition at a time that suits you. With recent improvements in modern technology, it is now possible to purchase a wide range of multi-media materials for learning a language. You can teach yourself using cassettes, videos, CD- ROMs, books, and any combination of these. This approach is best suited to students who are self-disciplined and well-organized. It also tends to assist with the development of reading and listening skills. But be sure to pick out materials of high quality. If you want to become fluent at speaking and writing a language, youll also benefit from cooperating with other users. 21. The method mentioned in the first paragraph can be considered _.A. passive learningB. the most effective learning methodC. natural and active learning D. a structured learning method22.

A. people need to care about grammar when speaking a languageB. classroom studying can be boring sometimes C. not all learning materials can help improve our language levelD. students lacking self-control may not benefit much from self-study24. What might be talked about in the next paragraph? A. How to cooperate with other language learners.B. How to deal with the difficulties in study.C. How to find a personal tutor.D.

His employer had a large private library so Owen was able to educate himself. He read a lot in his spare time and at nineteen he was given the job of superintendent(监工) at a Manchester cotton mill. He was so successful there that he persuaded his employer to buy the New Lanark mill in Scotland.When he arrived at New Lanark it was a dirty little town with a population of 2,000 people. Nobody paid any attention to the workers houses or their childrens education. The conditions in the factories were very bad. There was a lot of crime and the men spent most of their wages on alcoholic drinks.Owen improved the houses. He encouraged people to be clean and save money. He opened a shop and sold the workers cheap, well-made goods to help them. He limited the sale of alcoholic drinks. Above all, he fixed his mind on the childrens education. In 1816 he opened the first free primary school in Britain.People came from all over the country to visit Owens factory. They saw that the workers were healthier and more efficient than in other towns. Their children were better fed and better educated. Owen tried the same experiment in the United States. He bought some land there in 1825, but the community was too far away. He could not keep it under control and lost most of his money.Owen never stopped fighting for his idea. Above all he believed that people are not born good or bad. He was a practical man and his ideas were practical. If you give people good working conditions, he thought, they will work well and, the most important thing of all, if you give them the chance to learn, they will be better people. 28. For Owen, his greatest achievement in New Lanark was _.A. improving workers housesB. helping people to save money C. preventing men from getting drunk D. providing the children with a good education29. From the passage we may infer that Owen was born _.A. into a rich family B. into a noble family C. into a poor family D. into a middle class family30. Owens experiment in the United States failed because _. A. he lost all his money B. he did not buy enough land C. people who visited it were not impressed D. it was too far away for him to organize it properly31. We may infer form the passage that no children in Britain could enjoy free education until _.A. 1771B. 1816C. 1825D. 1860DIn business, there is a speed difference: Its the difference between how important a firms leaders say speed is to their competitive strategy and how fast the company actually moves. The difference is important regardless of industry and company size. Companies fearful of losing their competitive advantage spend much time and money looking for ways to pick up the speed.In our study of 343 businesses, the companies that chose to go, go, go to try to gain an edge ended up with lower sales and operating incomes than those that paused at key moments to make sure they were on the right track. Whats more, the firms that “slowed down to speed up” improved their top and bottom lines, averaging 40% higher sales and 52% higher operating incomes over a three-year period.How did they disobey the laws of business physics, taking more time than competitors yet performing better? They thought differently about what “slower” and “faster” mean. Firms sometimes fail to understand the difference between operational speed (moving quickly) and strategic speed (reducing the time it takes to deliver value). Simply increasing the speed of production, for example, may be one way to try to reduce the speed difference. But that often leads to reduced value over time, in the form of lower-quality products and services.In our study, higher-performing companies with strategic speed always made changes when necessary. They became more open to ideas and discussion. They encouraged new ways of thinking. And they allowed time to look back and learn. By contrast, performance suffered at firms that moved fast all the time, paid too much attention to improve efficiency, stuck to tested methods, didnt develop team spirit among their employees, and had little time thinking about changes.Strategic speed serves as a kind of leadership. Teams that regularly take time to get things right, rather than plough ahead full bore, are more successful in meeting their business goals. That kind of strategy must come from the top.32. What does the underlined part “gain an edge” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Increase the speed.B. Reach the limit. C. Get an advantage.D. Set a goal.33. The underlined part “the laws of business physics” in Paragraph 3 refers to _ . A. spending more time and performing worse B. spending more time and performing better C. spending less time and performing better D. spending less time and performing worse34. What can we learn from the text? A. how fast a firm moves depends on how big it is. B. how competitive a firm is depends on what it produces. C. Firms guided by operational speed take time to develop necessary team spirit. D. Firms guided by strategic speed take time to make necessary changes.35. What could be the best title for the text? A. Improve quality? Serve better. B. Need speed? Slow down. C. Deliver value? Plough ahead. D. Reduce time? Move faster.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。We all wish we had just a bit more timeJust think what you could do with an extra hour or two each day: you could finally stick to an exercise routine, or spring-clean the house, or write your novel, or learn the guitar and so on 36 But I can help you find more hours in your day for the things that really matter1Get Out of Bed Earlier If you normally get up at 7; 30 a.m., try getting up at 7:00 a.m. That half-hour might not sound like much, but it could be time that you use to exercise, to read that book youve been meaning to finish 37_ 2Do the Important Tasks First Once you get to work, get the important ones done first （not the easy ones, or even the urgent ones）. 38_ If you work like this, youll usually save time.

Making new friends can broaden our horizons and make you more open-minded because their beliefs and experiences may differ in our own. I like making friends from different provinces in my country or even from foreign countries. With them, there were always new topics to talk about, new activities do together, and new personality traits to discover. Additional, we can also meet other people through new friends, and maybe we can receive the whole group of new friends just by making one new friend. I have met many new people with different characters, hobbies and backgrounds at school, on s
