learning english. they are reading, listening, speaking, and writing. the most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills you should first master the skills of reading and listening.read as much as you can. but your reading must be active. it means that you must think about the meaning of the sentence, the meaning of the unfamiliar words, etc. there is no need for you to pay much attention to grammars or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you e_across,_but the fact that you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example in other passages or books, is enough. it would be better to prepare yourself a notebook so you can write down the important words or sentences in it.as for listening, there are two choices: besides reading, you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. you can only pay attention to your reading and bee skilful at your reading, then you can catch up on your listening. since you have lots of inputs in your mind, you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. this never means that you should not practise listening.for listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. their languages are easy. or if you are good at listening you can listen to voa or bbc programmes every day. again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably taking some notes.if you follow these pieces of advice, your speaking and writing will improve automatically, and you can be sure that with a little effort they will bee perfect.56to improve your reading, when you read you should _.athink about what you are reading activelyblook up all the new words in the dictionarycspend more time studying grammarsdcopy as many words and sentences as possible57the underlined phrase“e across” in the second paragraph can probably be replaced by“_”afind on purpose bdiscovercmeet by accident dlook forbthe 92yearold, thin, calm and proud lady, who is fully dressed each morning by eight oclock, even though she is nearly blind, moved to a nursing home today.her husband of 70 years recently passed away, making the move necessary. after many hours of waiting patiently in the hall of the nursing home, she smiled sweetly when told her room was ready.as she walked slowly to the elevator, i provided a true description of her tiny room, including the old sheets that had been hung on her window. “i love it.” she said with the happiness of an eightyearold having just been presented with a new puppy.“mrs jones, you havent seen the room.just wait.”“that doesnt matter.” she replied.“happiness is something you decide ahead of time. whether i like my room or not doesnt depend on how the furniture is arranged. its how i arranged my mind. i have already decided to love it. its a decision i make every morning when i wake up. each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open ill focus on the new day and all the happy memories ive stored away.”she went on to explain，“old age is like a bank account. you take what youve put in. so, my advice to you would be to put in a lot of happiness in the bank account of memories. thank you for your part in filling my memory bank.”and with a smile, she said，“all my memories are happy ones.”60we can infer from the passage that the author _.ais one of mrs jones children bworks in the nursing homecis a relative of mrs jones dis the owner of the nursing home61mrs jones was very happy when told about her room because she _.acouldnt see what her room was likebthought the nursing home was her homechad already made up her mind to be happydwould have to live in the nursing home62which of the following words can best describe mrs jones?aproud. bdetermined. ccheerful.

shah jahan in 1653 in memory of his wife, mumtaz mahal. from the time they got married, they wouldnt be separated. she followed him to wars, advised him on affairs of state, and was loved by his people for her good work. but she died in 1631 during childbirth. the emperor was heartbroken and had the taj mahal built as a sign of his love.it took more than 20 years for the taj mahal to be built. workers were brought in, not only from all over india, but from central asia too. a total of 20,000 people worked on the building.in 1657, shah jahan fell ill, and in 1658 his son aurangzeb, imprisoned (囚禁) his father and seized power. shah jahan stayed in prison until his death in 1666. he was finally buried there with his wife he could never forget.the taj mahal is definitely worth more than a single visit. as it is built with white marble stones, its character changes in different lights. it looks more beautiful at sunrise and sunset. at sunset, for example, the colour of the taj changes from white to yellow, then to pink. as the moon rises, it turns a silvery white.to show respect to the taj, tourists are asked to take off their shoes during their visit.63emperor shah jahan built the taj mahal to _.amake it symbolise india bmemorise his wifecshow his great power dgive his wife a present64which of the following about the taj mahal is not true?ait is a symbol of india.bit

jahan _.alived a hard life in his last few yearsblost his life just because of his old agecwas not popular with his people at that timedtreated his son badly when he was young66the word“seize” in the fourth paragraph may most probably mean _.athrow bmemorise cgive dcapturedone is not born able to speak a language. one is born able to make a noise. i have heard babies cry in america and in china. i
