English learner has a wide choice of dictionaries in which to choose from There are dictionaries with American English with British English with idioms or slang and even with pictures The most popular dictionaries I have seen among many students are talking electronic dictionaries All you have to do is type in a word in your language and you can see it and hear it in English That s great right Well I think it s great too but only sometimes Bilingual electronic dictionaries are fast and easy They can be great when you are traveling and need information quickly But I am against electronic dictionaries and even bilingual paper dictionaries in many cases Let me explain When you reach an intermediate level of English you know enough of the language to ask the meaning of certain things while using English Translating 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

understand something Go to your bilingual dictionary It is useful sometimes Just remember to try to stay in English as much as possible 21 The most popular dictionaries among students are A American English dictionariesB dictionaries with pictures C dictionaries that can talkD dictionaries of idiom or slang 22 According to the ideas of the author electronic dictionaries are A always great and betterB not as great as one thinks C will take the place of paper dictionariesD will be more popular 23 What does the author think the best way to use a dictionary in learning English A To take the advantage of an English English dictionary is the best way B To learn more about how an English dictionary come into being C To learn more about American English or American idioms D To make full use of the advantages of all dictionaries 24 Why does the author prefer paper dictionary A It provides you with so much information B It makes you learn English better C It seems that you can learn English better D It seems that the information stays in the head longer 25 We can conclude that A consulting bilingual dictionary is a better method to improve your English B learning more about

learning of English F Dogs like people and monkeys seem to have a sense of fairness In the reward experiments Friederike Range experimented with dogs that understood the command paw to place their

a reward all was well But the dogs didn t seem to care whether the reward was sausage or bread And the dogs never rejected the food something that primates had done when they thought the reward was unfair Range said she wasn t surprised at the dogs reaction since wolves are known to cooperate with one another and appear to be sensitive to each other Modern dogs are descended from wolves Next she
