for learning english pronunciation(发音), mr. joe thinks songs are the most useful way to learn. at the same time, you can learn some new words and phrases while singing songs. mr. joe has used songs to help himself learn french, spanish, japanese and chinese. you should do the same. some words used in songs are not everyday english, so you have to be careful how you use song lyrics（歌词）when you speak. most words and sentences are very useful. you dont have to sing songs aloud if you are shy, but after learning a song you should be able to follow the words without looking at the lyrics. when you can do that, you have learned something that you will never forget! some good songs to listen to are from the beatles, john denver and the carpenters. their songs are not too fast and the lyrics are close to normal spoken english. just for fun, you can try mr. joes favorite singer, b.b. king. his songs are not easy at all! if you can understand even 80% of why i sing the blues, you are a very advanced student. if you become good at singing english songs, you can try to go to karaoke and sing with your friends. when you are able to sing a song in another language, even if you dont sing so beautifully, you will really impress(给.深刻印象) other people!61. which is mr. joes mother language?a. french. b. english. c. chinese. d. japanese.62. singing english songs can help us, except_.a. pronounce correctly b. remember new words c. learn english d. sing songs better63. the songs from the beatles are easy to learn, one of the reasons may be_.a. everyone likes the songs b. john denvers voice is sweetc. the lyrics of the songs are beautiful d. the lyrics are close to normal spoken english64. the underlined word advanced in paragraph 3 can be replaced by_.a. careful b. excellent c. kind-hearted d. lazy65. which of the following would be the best title for the passage?a. english songs. b. the famous band-the beatles. c. english songs helps english learning. d. how to learn english. cdo you know the phrase “weibo addicts” (微博控)? do you write a weibo? if you dont, you are “out”! weibo means microblog. people may spend much time writing a blog, but it takes a little time to write a microblog. why? because every message on a microblog is less than 140 words.microblog started in the usa. it came to china in 2009 and it grows very fast. in 2011, the number of chinese micro-bloggers grew to 300 million. people write microblogs for many reasons. for many microblog users, it is a great way of learning the freshest news, talking with friends and sharing different kinds of information, including news, everyday life, pictures, music, videos and so on. it is easy and fast to send a message on a microblog. however, this can also bring problems and even panic (恐慌). for example, when the big earthquake and tsunami (海啸) hit japan in march, 2011, messages like “salt can help people fight radiation (辐射)” were hot on microblogs. then a crazy buying of salt followed. later people knew it was just a rumor (谣言).in a word, microblog plays a new part in the life of chinese people.66. what does weibo addicts in the first paragraph mean?a. people who are crazy about weibo. b. people who seldom use weibo.c. people who first made weibo. d. people who need weibo least.67. what is not an advantage (优势) of weibo?a. it is short but carries many meanings. b. it can help us learn the latest news.c. it can send rumors. d. it is easy to use.68. people usually dont share their _ on weibo?
