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 practice 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 quickly, and you can be a fluent English speaker one day.篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述的就是如何成为一个在英语说和写方面很流利的人。21According to the writer, 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。根据第一段第三句“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.”说明学习英语应该首先提高阅读和听力水平，故A正确。22To improve your reading, when you read you should _.Alook up all the new words in the dictionaryBthink about what you are reading activelyCspend more time studying grammarsDcopy as many words and sentences as possible答案：B细节理解题。根据第二段第一、二句“Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active.”说明我们要积极地思考我们所阅读的内容，故B正确。23The underlined phrase “come across” in Paragraph 2 can probably be replaced by “_”AmeetBdiscoverChearDlook for答案：A词义猜测题。根据本句“There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammars or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you come across”可知此处表示在阅读中你所遇见的那些你不熟悉的单词，故该词指遇见，故A正确。BOne of the latest trend (趋势) in American Childcare is Chinese au pairs. Au Pair in Stamford, for example, has got increasing numbers of request for Chinese au pairs from aero to around 4,000 since 2004. And thats true all across the country.“I thought it would be useful for him to learn Chinese at an early age” Joseph Stocke, the managing director of a company, says of his 2year old son, “I would at least like to give him the chance to use the language in the future.” After only six months of being cared by 25yearold woman from China, the boy can already understand basic Chinese daily expressions, his dad says.Li Drake, a Chinese native raising two children in Minnesota with an American husband, had another reason for looking for an au pair from China. She didnt want her children to miss out on their roots.“Because I am Chinese, my husband and I wanted the children to keep exposed to (接触) the language and culture.” she says.“Staying with a native speaker is better for children than simply sitting in a classroom，” says Suzanne Flynn, a professor in language education of children.“But parents must understand that just one year with au pair is unlikely to produce wonders. Complete mastery demands continued learning until the age of 10 or 12.”The popularity of au pairs from China has been strengthened by the increasing numbers of American parents who want their children to learn Chinese. It is expected that American demand for au pairs will continue to rise in the next few years.篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文中作者提出美国现在存在的一种潮流趋势，即越来越多的美国人希望孩子能够学汉语，而且他们都希望孩子能够在家里和来自中国的女学生学习汉语，他们认为这样在生活中通过交流来学习汉语要比在学校学习有优势。24What does that term “au pair” in the text mean?AA mother raising her children on her own.BA child learning a foreign language at home.CA professor in language education of children.DA young foreign woman taking care of children.答案：D词义猜测题。根据文章对au pair的介绍以及第三段中的“ . had another reason for looking for an au pair from China”和第四段中的“Staying with a native speaker is better for children than simply sitting in a classroom”可以推断美国家长希望孩子能够在家和来自中国的人们学英语，由此判断au pair是指住在家里可以教给孩子语言的年轻女人，故答案选D。25Li Drake has her children study Chinese because she wants them _.Ato live in China some dayBto speak the language at homeCto catch up with other childrenDto learn about the Chinese culture答案：D细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Because I am Chinese, my husband and I wanted the children to keep exposed to (接触) the language and culture.”可知她让孩子学汉语的原因是想让孩子了解中国的文化，答案选D。26What can we infer from the text?ALearning Chinese is becoming popular in America.BEducated woman do better in looking after children.CChinese au pairs need to improve their English Skills.DChildren can learn a foreign language well in six months.答案：A推理判断题。作者在文章首段提到美国的潮流就是小孩子在家学习汉语，而且给出了具体的数字证明，再通过文章末段最后一句“It is expected that American demand for au pairs will continue to rise in the next few years.”可知，美国对au pairs的需求将会继续增长，由此判断在美国学习中文变得流行了，故选A。CLanguages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by huntergatherers, small, tightly knit (联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialisation, the development of the nationstate and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages; the Americas about 1,000; Africa 2,400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number (中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the worlds languages are spoken by fewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction (消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico (150). Lipan Apache in the United States (two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a questionmark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival.篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了随着社会的发展人类语言越来越少的现象及其原因。27What can we infer about languages in huntergatherer times?AThey developed very fast.BThey were large in number.CThey had similar patterns. DThey were closely connected.答案：B推理判断题。根据第一段第二、三句可知，当人类社会处在原始社会，人们以狩猎为生时，小而联系紧密的群落形成了他们彼此之间独立的语言模式。当世界上的人口数量在五百万到一千万时，语言种类达到了12,000种。由此推知，当时的语言种类很多。故选B。28Which of the following best explains “dominant” underlined in Paragraph 2?AComplex. BAdvanced.CPowerful. DModern.答案：C词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over”可知，英语、西班牙语和汉语越来越占据统治地位。由此推知，dominant意为“占优势的；强大的”。故选C。29How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present?AAbout 6,800. BAbout 3,400.CAbout 2,400. DAbout 1,200.答案：B细节理解题。根据第三段中的“At present, the world has about 6,800 languages.”和“The median number (中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the worlds languages are spoken by fewer people than that.”可知，目前世界上大约有6,800种语言，但是讲的人数少于6,000人的占一半，即3,400。故选B。30What is the main idea of the text?ANew languages will be created.BPeoples lifestyles are reflected in languages.CHuman development results in fewer languages.DGeography determines language evolution.答案：C主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句和第二段第二句可知，本文所讲的主要内容为随着时代的发展，语言在逐渐消失和减少。故选C。第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。I just counted how many foreign languages Ive studied so far in my life and its been twelve!I always follow my interests and find ways to put my language learning into things Im already interested in. I like to read blogs (博客) in other languages. _31_. For the most part, bloggers tend to write the same way they speak, so I dont have to worry much about adopting strange terms that are only used in writing.Movies are also a really good tool, especially if you can find subtitles in the language youre learning. _32_， they will still keep your brain listening and reading in the same language. Music is another way to start listening to things in your new language. Personally, Im so bad at understanding lyrics (歌词) even in English, so this one doesnt really work for me, but I have friends who learn a language through lyrics. Games are of cou
