some people seem to think its for practicing grammar rules and learning lists of words the longer the lists, the better. thats wrong. language is for the exchange (交流) of ideas and information. its meaningless to know all about a language if you cant use it freely. many students i have met know hundreds of grammar rules, but they cant speak correctly or fluently(流利地). they are afraid of making mistakes. one shouldnt be afraid of making mistakes when speaking a foreign language. native speakers often make mistakes and break rules, too. bernard shaw once wrote, “foreigners often speak english too correctly.” but the mistakes that native speakers make are different from those that chinese students make. they are english mistakes in the english language. and if enough native speakers break a rule, it is no longer a rule. what used to be wrong becomes right. people not only make history, but they also make language. but people can only make their own language. they cant make another peoples language. so chinese students of english should pay attention to grammar, but they shouldnt overdo it. when they learn a foreign language, they should put communication first.56. language is used to _. a. exchange ideas b. practice grammar rules c. talk with foreigners only d. learn lists of words57. generally, when an american or an englishman speaks english, he _. a. never makes mistakes b. often makes mistakes c. cant make mistakes d. always makes mistakes58.“foreigners often speak english too correctly.” the sentence means that _. a. foreigners speak correct english. b. foreigners speak incorrect english. c. foreigners speak english according to the grammar rules. d. foreigners never make mistakes when they speak english.59. when we study a foreign language, we should _. a. learn grammar only b. speak by the rules c. speak to native speakers d. put communication firstb(1) liu xiang got another gold medal in the 110m hurdles at the east asian games (eag) in macao last wednesday. the 22-year-old liu defended his eag title in 13.21 seconds, beating shi dongpeng (13.36) and japans kota kumamoto (13.89).his winning time was 0.16 seconds behind his top time this year and a further 0.08 behind this seasons best: 12.97 set by frenchman ladji doucoure, who beat liu into second place in the world championships. (2) over 30,000 people were killed in the huge earthquake that took place in india, pakistan and afghanistan on october 8. millions were left homeless after the quake destroyed houses, cutting off power and water. the international community has responded to the countries call for help. china has sent a rescue team, along with money and relief materials (救援物资). but because of bad weather, it is difficult for them to reach those in remote areas. the united nations warned of a possible outbreak of infectious diseases (传染病). 60. what is liu xiangs top time this year?a. 12.97 seconds. b. 13.36 seconds. c. 13.21 seconds. d. 13.05 seconds. 61. how many countries were hit by this huge earthquake?a. 3. b. 2. c. 4. d. 1. 62. according to the united nations, what will possibly happen?a. another bigger earthquake. b. flood. c. infectious disease. d. drought. ca year ago, i paid no attention to english idioms, though my teacher emphasized(强调)the importance again and again. but soon, the importance of english idioms was shown in an amusing experience. one day, i happened to meet an englishman on the road, and soon we began to talk. as i was talking about how i was studying english, the foreigner seemed to be surprised. gently shaking his head, shrugging his shoulders, he said, “you dont say!” “you dont say!” i was puzzled. i thought, maybe this is not a good topic. “well, id better change the topic. “ so i said to him, “well, shall we talk about the great wall? by the way, have you ever been there?” “certainly, everyone back home will laugh at me if i leave china without seeing it. it was wonderful.” he was deep in thought when i began to talk like a tourist guide. “the great wall is one of the wonders in the world. we are very proud of it.” soon i was stopped again by his words: “you dont say!” i couldnt help asking, “why do you ask me not to talk about it?” “well, i didnt ask you to do so,” he answered, greatly surprised. i said, “didnt you say you dont say?” hearing this, the englishman laughed to tears. he began to explain, you dont say. actually means really! it is an expression of surprise. perhaps you dont pay attention to english idioms.” only then did i know how foolish i had been. since then i have been more careful with idiomatic expressions. remember: what the english teachers said is always right to us students.63. a year ago, i paid no attention to english idioms because _.a. english idioms were not important. b. i was not careful with english idioms c. my teacher didnt emphasize the importance of themd. theres no idiom in english64. at first, when hearing “you dont say”, i thought the foreigner meant_.a. he was not interested in the topicb. he was only interested in the great wallc. i had talked too muchd. i had to stop talking65. “amusing” in the first paragraph probably means_.a. interesting b. important c. terrible d. unlucky66. after the englishman explained the idiom, _.a. i thought the englishman had made me a fool.b. the englishman became a real fool.c. i felt that i was really a foold. i became more careful with idiomatic expressions.dhealth centre9:0017:3016 yong le streettel: 3801451free examinations for those over 70.give you good advice to keep healthy!ocean museum9:0017:00 from thursday to sundayticket: 50 yuan132 xue yuan streettel: 5439871show you a full picture of sea lives!sunny english clubfor pupils16:00 18:00 every saturday200 yuan a month9 zhou yu streettel: 3785290foreign teachers, english songs and films and more!67. what can you do if you book a ticket through 5439871?
