It is our duty to learn English in the new situation of the reform and opening (改革开放) to the outside world. How can we master the English language ? Id like to give you some good advice. First, get interested in it. I enjoy listening to foreign friends talking when I was a child. At the same time I watched the English programme Follow Me on TV. From then on, I kept on learning English. The more I learned, the more progress I made. Second, practice makes perfect. Many people study English very hard, but they are very shy to speak it in public, for they are afraid of making mistakes. Remember you have to make a mistake before you can correct it. A native English speaker makes mistakes sometimes, too. Third, the beginners should be encouraged to pay attention to idioms. The English language has many idioms. For example, you should say “ He is as strong as a cow.” 56. The writer wants to tell us _. A. the importance of learning English B. the new situation of the reform and opening to the outside world C. some good ideas on how to master English D. the wide use of the English language 57. If we want to learn English, we must first _. A. show interest in it B. enjoy listening to it C. watch English programmes on TV D. practice speaking it 58. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 means “_.” A. Remember to make a mistake before you can correct it B. You are sure to make a mistake before you can correct it C. Remember you have to make a mistake and then correct it D. Youll make a mistake after you can correct it BI went to the Chinatown market in London last Sunday. The first thing I did was to go to one of the Chinese green grocers shops. As soon as I entered the shop, I smelt mixtures of Chinese spices and saw the new seasons fruits. My son wanted a bag of sweets, so we popped into the shop next door which sells many kinds of candy.There is a lot of noise in the Chinatown market and you will see many tourists too. There are a lot of cars and trucks that never stop beeping(按喇叭). While people are loading and unloading their goods, most of them have their cars and trucks parked in the middle of the road. This causes great trouble for other drivers. Can you imagine that? After we had done all our shopping, my son and I went to a restaurant for lunch. We enjoyed our meal very much. But the shopping made us both very tired in the end. We headed down the road to catch our bus home. My son and I enjoyed riding in the bus. We also enjoyed looking at different buildings and people walking by dressed in fancy outfits（服装）. Although Chinatown can be a busy place to shop in, I do enjoy going there now and then. I can buy some of my necessities, and I can also look and browse（浏览） around the other shops and department stores where I can indulge (使沉迷) myself with some nice things. Chinatown is located in the heart of central London, where you can find tons of shops and other places to amuse you. And for me, I certainly dont mind going back there again soon.59. What can we learn from the passage?A. Rich people wont go to Chinatown for shopping.B. The traffic conditions in Chinatown are not very good.C. The food that the author ate in Chinatown didnt taste good.D. Chinatown has changed a lot since the authors last visit.60. From the passage, we can infer（推测） that the author most probably went to Chinatown by _. A. bike B. car C. bus D. motorbike61. The underlined words “popped into” most probably means “_”.A. broke into B. rushed into C. pushed into D. walked into 62. What does the last sentence of the passage imply（暗示）?A. The writer will come to Chinatown again before long. B. The writer wont go to Chinatown for a long time.C. The writer likes Chinatown because its near.D. The writer doesnt have a good impression on Chinatown.CThe zebra belongs to the horse family. One of natures great mysteries is why the zebra has stripes （条纹）. One theory is that the stripes help the zebra cool down. On hot days the black stripes get a lot hotter than the white area of the zebra and under the black stripes there are special layers of fat for protection. Hot air then rises off the black stripes, forcing colder air down around the white areas, cooling the zebra down. This, however, is just a kind of theory. The stripes can also confuse predators（食肉动物，掠夺者）when zebras stay with other animals in great numbers. Zebras have excellent hearing and eyesight and can run at speeds of up to 56 kilometers per hour. They also have a powerful kick that can cause serious injury to a predator, like a lion, or an African wild dog. Usually the lead male of the herd stays at the back of the group to defend against predators if necessary, while the females and youngsters escape danger.Zebras are herbivores that feed only on plants and live mostly by eating grasses, although they also might eat a bit on the leaves and stems(茎) of bushes. They eat grasses for many hours each day, using their strong teeth. Spending so much time chewing wears the zebras teeth down, so their teeth keep growing all their lives. As the dry season arrives and the grasses die back, zebra herds travel to find more food and water holes for drinking. Most zebras have no specific territories（明确的领土）. They travel from place to place, never staying in one area very long.63It can be inferred from the first paragraph that_. Athere are different opinions about why the zebra has stripesBthe black stripes help the zebra live through cold daysCthe zebra can be easily attacked by predatorsDthe zebra always travels with other animals64According to the passage, herbivores are animals that _.A. have specific territories B. only eat plants C. kill and eat other animals D. live in groups65The zebra has strong teeth all their lives because their teeth _.A. only chew soft grasses B. are used all dayC. are always growing D. are kept clean66Which of the following statements about zebras is TRUE?AThey have poor eyesight and hearing.B. A lion can get injured by a zebras kick.C. They can run 56 miles per hour.D. They usually stay in one area all their lives.67.

Jazz at The Bulls HeadEPeople in the United States honor their parents with two special days：Mothers Day, on the second Sunday in May, and Fathers Day, on the third Sunday in June. These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible(有责任感的) citizens. They give love and care. These two days make us think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home. More fathers must help with child care.These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mothers Day people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honor parents. It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery(墓地).On these days families get together at home, as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues for Fathers Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are valued more than the ones bought in stores. It is not the value of the gift that is important, but it is “the thought that counts”. Greeting card stores, florists, candy makers, bakeries, telephone companies, and other stores do a lot of business during these holidays.71. Which of the following is NOT a reason for children to show love and resp
