you can recite(背诵) the text and write it out, youve learned it fairly well. and if you can tell, in your own words, what the lesson says, youre a very successful learner indeed. your english will be quite perfect. this is a difficult task. however, if you try to learn by heart only part of each lesson, youll find it not half so hard as you might have thought. learning this way, you will make rapid progress. of course, writing is also necessary. it helps you a lot on our way to success in english. equally important is to feel the language. you should be able to laugh at jokes and be shocked at bad news. when using english, try to forget your mother tongue. instead of helping you, your own language gets in your way. so, never try to see english through translation.46. in the writers opinion, the most effective way in learning english is _. a. to practise speaking, writing and feeling it b. to memorize the english words and grammatical rules c. to translate everything into his own language d. to forget your own native language47. “instead of helping you, your own language gets in your way.”this sentence means that memorizing your own language can _. a. stop you learning english well b. help you study english well c. make english easy to learn d. help you notice mistakes48. the underlined words “to feel the language” here means_. a. to get a knowledge of english by touching b. to be able to read and write english c. to be able to experience the rich feeling of the language d. to translate english into your own language by imaginingbtaylor sings with heartthe music industry is never short of teen pop stars with wonderful looks, but it doesnt often find one like us singer taylor swift. “beneath taylor swifts not-a-girl, not-yet-a-woman sweetness hides a very skillful songwriting technique (技巧),” writes leah greenblatt with entertainment weekly.songwriting, the country singer explains, is “how i deal with problems. i am used to writing about things that really influences me most.” so in her songs, there is always something true and honest. they seem like stories from a diary. and that certainly helps swift attract her audience.shes sold more than 13 million copies worldwide of her first two albums, 2006s self-titled debut (首张专辑) and 2008s fearless. shes the youngest artist ever to be named artist of the year at the american music awards. not surprisingly, there were great expectations for her third album, speak now, which came out late last month, where she again returned to her own life for material. the 14 songs “are all about the last two years. when life was a little bit bigger and crazier,” says swift. “so ive written about the lessons and confusion and heartbreak and all the different things that go along with being 18, 19 and 20.”49.what led to taylors fame?a. her wonderful looks.b. her songwriting skills together with her looks.c. her beautiful voice.d. her special life experience in her teenage years.50.which of the

off course, i think of this story. it was a normal monday morning, and my teacher was teaching us on important things in life and about devoting ourselves to what is important to us. this is how the story went: an old man lived in a certain part of london, and he would wake up every morning and go to the sub-way. he would get onto the train right to central lon-don, and then sit at the street corner and beg. he would do this every single day of his life. he sat at the same street corner and begged for almost 20 years. his house was dirty, and a stench (恶臭) came out of the house and it smelled terrible. the neighbors could not stand the smell any more, so they called for the police officers to clear the place. the officers knocked down the door and cleaned the house. there were small bags of money all over the house that he had collected over the years. the police counted the money, and they soon realized that the old man was a millionaire (百万富翁). they waited outside his house expecting to share the good news with him. when the old man arrived home that evening, one of the officers told him that there was no need for him to beg any more as he was a rich man now, a millionaire. but the old man said nothing at all; he went into his house and locked the door. the next morning he woke up as usual, went to the subway, sat at the street corner and continued to beg. clearly, this old man had no great plans, dreams or anything significant (有意义的) for his life. we learn nothing from this story other than staying focused on the things we enjoy doing. 52.the underlined part in the first paragraph may mean _.a. i get tired of learning my subjectsb. i fail to listen to lessons attentivelyc. i go in the wrong direction of lifed. i wouldnt like to go to school53.the neighbor called the police because _.a. the old man kept begging money from them every dayb. there was something dangerous in the old mans housec. the old man wouldnt buy tickets for the traind. they couldnt bear the smell from the old mans house54.when the old man knew he was a millionaire, he _.a. remained calm b. became excited c. felt worried d. became nervous55.what lesson do we learn from the story?a. make great plans for your life. b. keep on doing what you like.c. do something that is good to society. d. depend on yourself rather than others.dlondon underground the worlds first subway was built in london in 1863. at the time，the government was looking for a way to reduce traffic problems in the city of london. the poor areas of the city were so crowded with people that it was almost impossible for horse carriages to get through. the city officials were interested in trying to make it possible for workers to live outside of london and travel easily to work each day. if people had a cheap and convenient way that they could depend on to go to and from work, they would relocate their homes outside of the city. this would help ease(减轻) the pressure of too many people living in the poor parts of london. from these problems, the idea of the london underground, the first subway system, was born. the plans for building the underground met with several problems and delays (推迟), but the fast track was finally opened in january 1863. a steam train pulled the cars along the fast underground track which was 6 kilometers (3.7 miles) long. about 30,000 people got on the subway the first day. riders were treated to comfortable seats (standing up while the train was moving was not allowed), and pleasant decorations inside each of the cars. however, the smoke from the engine soon filled the air in the tunnels with ash and soot(煤灰), as well as chemical gases. fans had to be put in the tunnels later to keep the air clean enough for people to breathe. even with its problems, riding in the underground did catch on. it carried 9 million riders in its first year.56. what led the british government to build the london underground？ a. traffic jams and pollution. b. population and pollution. c. overcrowding and traffic jams. d. the poverty (贫困) and traffic jams. 57. how did the london underground solve the smoke problem？ a. it made the tunnels larger. b. it put fans in the tunnels. c. it cleaned the chemical gases in the tunnels. d. it reduced the number of passengers riding in the train.58. how many passengers did the worlds first subway carry in its first year? a. 9,000 b. 90,000 c. 9,000,000 d. 90,000,00059. the underlined phrase “catch on” most probably means “_”. a. troublesome b. become popular c. useless d. get into trouble60. which of the following is true？ a. to relocate the workers homes outside london，the government built the subway. b. there were not so many problems and delays when the first subway was built. c. the subway greatly eased the pressure of traffic. d. there were not enough seats for the passengers the first day the subway opened.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从下框的af选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余项。atalk slowlybconcentrate on the topic.cexpress your feelingsdnotice the details. euse the best words.fintroduce something interesting.61._generally, good talkers dont rush into a conversation. they take their time when they think about something and when they say it out loud. they act as if they have all the time in the world. this makes them the center of attention. try this way of talking and you will create the same effect.62._people with good conversation skills tend to notice the kind of things that the average person doesnt notice, and to bring such details into the conversation. they may notice and point out an interesting ring on the other persons hand, a certain foreign accent, or a certain voice tone they use when saying a name. thus, such individuals impress people in a very elegant manner.63._its very rare to meet a person who is comfortable talking about their emotions(感情) and how certain things make them feel, especially with strangers. yet this way of talking is a real virtue(优点). dont just present the facts, youre not a newspaper. express your feelings about those facts. keep in mind that it is at the emotional level that people connect best.64.,_anybody can talk about the news or express basic opinions. but good talkers can frequently tell you things you didnt know and that youll find fascinating. this is why its good to have knowledge into fields such as psychology(心理学) or sociology, and bring such knowledge out at the right moments in a conversation.65._the ability to talk smoothly has a lot to do with choosing the precise(确切的) words to convey your precise feelings or thoughts. constantly develop your vocabulary and practice communicating as accurately as possible. it will help you develop a way with words and allow you to express yourself
