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 come_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 become skillful 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 programs 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 become perfect. 文章大意：本文阐述了如何通过提高阅读和听力技能，从而带动说和写的技能，成为a fluent English speaker。60According to the author, which should you improve first among the four skills?AReading and listening.BReading and writing.CWriting and speaking.DSpeaking and listening.答案：A细节理解题。由第一段最后一句可知，作者认为要想提高说和写的能力，首先要掌握读和听。61The underlined phrase “come across” in the second paragraph can probably be replaced by “_”Ameet by accidentBdiscoverCfind on purposeDlook for答案：A词义猜测题。此处是告诉读者没有必要去理解遇到的所有的不熟悉的单词，由此推知come across指“偶然遇到”。62The author seems to agree with the view that _.Aeveryone should listen to VOA or BBC programs every day Byou neednt practise listening if you keep on reading every dayCbeing good at reading is helpful in improving your listeningDyou should take notes of whatever you are hearing答案：C观点态度题，由第三段第二句可知，作者认为多阅读有助于提高听力水平。63The passage is mainly about how to_.Achoose suitable listening materialsBdeal with new words in readingCimprove your English as quickly as possibleDbecome fluent in speaking and writing English答案：D主旨大意题。文章第一句话便点明主题，接着用大量篇幅阐述了如何通过提高阅读和听力技能，从而带动说和写的技能，成为a fluent English speaker。C(2014长安一中高一期末)I was in a strange city I didnt know at all, and whats more, I could not speak a word of the language. On my second day I got on the first bus that passed, rode on it for several stops, then got off and walked on. The first two hours passed pleasantly enough, then I decided to turn back to my hotel for lunch. After walking about for some time, I decided I had better ask the way. The trouble was that the only word I knew of the language was the name of the street in which I lived, and even that I pronounced badly. I stopped to ask a newspaperseller. He handed me a paper. I shook my head and repeated the name of the street and he put the paper into my hands. I had to give him some money and went on my way. The next person, I asked was a policeman. He listened to me carefully, nodded and gently took me by the arm. There was a strange look in his eyes as he pointed left and right and left again. I nodded politely and began walking in the direction he pointed. About an hour passed and I noticed that the houses were getting fewer and fewer and green fields were appearing on either side of me. I had come all the way into the countryside. The only thing left for me to do was find the nearest railway station.文章大意：本文讲述了作者来到一个新的城市，不懂对方的语言，结果迷路的故事。64The writer preferred to walk back to his hotel because _.Ahe had no money to buy a ticketBhe wanted to lose himself in the cityChe tried to know the city in this wayDit was late and there were no buses passing by答案：C推理判断题。根据本段前三行：“I was in a strange city I didnt know at all, and whats more, I could not speak a word of the language.

The hotel laundry(洗衣房) ruined your favorite shirt. The taxi driver overcharged you. When youre abroad, sometimes things go wrong. Now you can do something about it! Use these tips when you want to express an effective complaint in English.No matter how unfair the situation, its best to phrase your complaint politely. In English, youll sound more polite if you use indirect language. Here are some examples：“Im sorry to bother you.” Starting a complaint like this puts the listener who may have heard many complaints that day at ease. Use this phrase if the situation isnt that serious. For example, “Im sorry to bother you, but I wanted a baked potato, not fries.”“Can you help me with this？” Everyone would much rather be asked to do something than told! So try phrasing your complaint as a request for help: “Can you help me with this? My sh
