well, i think its great, too. but only sometimes.bilingual (双语) electronic dictionaries are fast and easy. they can be great when you are traveling and need information quickly. but i dont like electronic dictionaries and even bilingual paper dictionaries in many cases. let me explain.when you reach an intermediate (中级) level of english, you know enough of the language to ask the meaning of certain things while using english. translating (翻译) between languages in your head takes time. you should be translating as little as possible and you should be thinking in english as much as possible. i strongly recommend that intermediate students use an english-english dictionary made especially for your understanding. for example, longman has a good dictionary for students. other companies do, too.i also feel that paper (book) dictionaries are better for studying than electronic dictionaries. true, they take longer to use. but, for some reason, the information you look up seems to stay in your head longer. it may be because you have to spell the word in your head and then “see it” more clearly in your mind.so what do you do if you have checked an english-english dictionary and still dont understand something? go to your bilingual dictionary. it is useful sometimes. just remember to try to stay in english as much as possible.51. the most popular dictionaries among students are _.a. american-english dictionariesb. dictionaries with picturesc. dictionaries that can talk d. dictionaries of slang52. what does the writer think is the best way for intermediate students to use a dictionary?a. to take the advantage (优势) of an english-english dictionary.b. to learn more about how an english dictionary is made.c. to learn more about american english or american slang.d. to make full use of the advantages of all dictionaries.53. why does the writer like paper dictionary better?a. it provides you with so much information. b. it makes you learn english better.c. it seems that you can keep it longer. d. it seems that the information stays in the head longer.dwe walked in so quietly that the nurse at the desk didnt even lift her eyes from the book. mum pointed at a big chair by the door and i knew she wanted me to sit down. while i watched with mouth open in surprise,mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold. she walked quietly to the small room by the lift and took out a wet mop. she pushed the mop past the desk and as the nurse looked up, mum stopped and said, “very dirty floors. ”“yes, im glad theyve finally decided to clean them,” the nurse answered. she looked at mum strangely and said, “but arent you working late?” mum just pushed harder, each swipe (拖一下) of the mop taking her farther and farther down the hall. i watched until she was out of sight (视野) and the nurse had turned back to writing in the big book. after a long time mum came back. her eyes were shining. she quickly put the mop back and took my hand. as we turned to go out of the door, mum bowed (弯腰) politely to the nurse and said, “thank you.” outside, mum told me, “dagmar is fine. no fever (发热).”“you saw her, mum?”“of course. i told her about the hospital rules, and she will not expect us until tomorrow. dad will stop worrying as well. its a fine hospital. but such floors! a mop is no good. you need a brush.”54. when she took a mop from the small room what mum really wanted to do was . a. to clean the floor b. to please the nurse c. to see a patient d. to surprise the writer55. after reading the story what can we infer (推断) about the hospital?
