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 meanings 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 automatically, and you can be sure that with a little effort they will become perfect.36According to the author, which should you improve first among the four skills?A. Reading and listening. B. Reading and writing.C. Writing and speaking. D. Speaking and listening.37The underlined phrase come across in Paragraph 2 can probably be replaced by _.A. discover B. meet by accidentC. find on purpose D. look for38The author seems to agree with the view that_.A. everyone should listen to VOA or BBC programs every dayB. you neednt practice listening if you keep on reading every dayC. being good at reading is helpful in improving your listeningD. you should take notes of whatever you are hearing39The passage is mainly about how to_.A. choose suitable listening materialsB. deal with new words in readingC. improve your English as quickly as possibleD. become fluent in speaking and writing EnglishBGoing green seems to be fad （时尚）for a lot of people these days. Whether that is good or bad, we cant really say, but for the two of us, going green is not a fad but a lifestyle.On April 22, 2020, we decided to go green every single day for an entire year. This meant doing 365 different green things, and it also meant challenging ourselves to go green beyond easy things. Rather than recycle and reduce our energy, we had to think of 365 different green things to do and this was no easy task.With the idea of going green every single day for a year, Our Green Year started. My wife and I decided to educate people about how they could go green in their lives and hoped we could show people all the green things that could be done to help the environment. We wanted to push the message that every little bit helps.Over the course of Our Green Year, we completely changed our lifestyle. We now shop at organic（有机的）stores. We consume less meat, choosing green food. We have greatly reduced our buying we dont need. We have given away half of what we owned through websites. Our home is kept clean by vinegar and lemon juice, with no chemical cleaners. We make our own butter, enjoying the smell of home-made fresh bread. In our home office anyone caught doing something ungreen might be punished.Our minds have been changed by Our Green Year. We are grateful for the chance to have been able to go green and educate others. We believe that we do have the power to change things and help our planet.40What might be the best title for the passage?AGoing Green.BProtecting the Planet.CKeeping Open-Minded.DCelebrating Our Green Year.41It was difficult for the couple to live a green life for the whole year because .Athey were expected to follow othersBthey didnt know how to educate other peopleCthey were unwilling to reduce their energyDthey needed to perform unusual green tasks42What is the couples main reason for going green every day for a whole year?ATo follow a green fad like many other people.BTo completely change their unhealthy lifestyle.Cto show people how to go green to help our planet.Dto show they never do anything ungreen.43What did the couple do over the course of their Green Year?AThey sold their home-made food.BThey ignore others ungreen behavior.CThey tried to get out of their ungreen habits.DThey chose better chemical cleaners.44What can we infer form the last paragraph?AThe government will give support to the green people.BThe couple may continue their project in the future.CSome people disagree with the couples green ideas.DOur Green Year is becoming a national action.CPeople in the United States honour 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 citizens. They give love and care to their children. These two days offer an opportunity to think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home. More fathers must help with childcare.These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mothers Day people wear camations（康乃馨）. A red one symbolizes（象征） a living mother. A white one shows that mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honour their parents. It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery. On these days families get together at home, as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues(烤肉)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.45Which is NOT a reason for children to show love and respect for their parents?A. Their parents bring them up.B. Their parents give love and care to them.C. Their parents educate them to be good persons.D. Their parents passed away before they grew up.46 What do you learn from the passage?A. Mothers Day and Fathers Day are both in May.B. Fewer women worked outside the home in the past.C. Not all the children respect their parents.D. Fathers are not as important as mothers at home.47 Which do you think is RIGHT about carnation ?A. It only has two kinds of colour.B. It refers to the special clothes people wear on Mothers Dayor Fathers Day.C. Its a kind of flower showing love and best wishes.D. People can wear carnations only on the second Sunday in May.DI was in a terrible moodTwo of my friends had gone to the movies the night before and hadnt invited meI was in my room thinking of ways to make them sorry when my father came in“Want to go for a ride，today，Beck? Its a beautiful day.”“No ! Leave me alone!” Those were the last words I said to him that morningMy friends called and invited me to go to the mall with them a few hours laterI forgot to be mad at them and when I came home to find a note on the tableMy mother put it where I would be sure to see it“Dad has had an accidentPlease meet us at Highland Park Hospital”When I reached the hospital，my mother came out and told me my fathers injuries were extensive. “Your father told the driver to leave him alone and just call 911，thank God! If he had moved Daddy，theres no telling what might have happenedA broken rib（肋骨）might have pierced（穿透）a lung.”My mother may have said more，but I didnt hearI didnt hear anything except those terrible words：Leave me aloneMy dad said them to save himself from being hurt moreHow much had I hurt him when I hurled those words at him earlier in the day?It was several days later that he was finally able to have a conversationI held his hand gently, afraid of hurting him“Daddy I am so sorry.” “Its okay，sweetheartIll be okay”“No，”I said，“I mean about what I said to you that dayYou know, that morning?”My father could no more tell a lie than he could flyHe looked at me and said“Sweetheart, I dont remember anything about that day，not before，during or after the accident. I remember kissing you goodnight the night before，though”He managed a weak smileMy English teacher once told me that words have immeasurable powerThey can hurt or they can healAnd we all have the power to choose our wordsI intend to do that very carefully from now on.48The author was in bad mood that morning because .Ahis father had a terrible accidentBhe couldnt drive to the mall with his friendsChis friends hadnt invited him to the cinemaDhis father didnt allow him to go out with his friends49Why did the author say sorry to his father in the hospital?ABecause he didnt go along with his fatherBBecause he was rude to his father that morningCBecause he failed to come earlier after the accidentDBecause he couldnt look after his father in the hospital50The reason why the authors father said he forgot everything about that day is that Ahe had a poor memoryBhe didnt want to comfort his sonChe just wanted to comfort his sonDhe lost his memory after the accident51What lesson did Beck learn from the matter?ADont treat your parents badlyBDont hurt others with rude wordsCDont move the injured in an accidentDDont be angry with friends at small thinE首先请阅读下列警方通报查找人员的信息：A.Name: Ziggy NizottHeight: 1.82 mWeight: 90kgAge: 35Details: Long history of violent crime including robbery, assault and car theft.B.Name: Dennis TsokasHeight: 1.95 mWeight: 70 kgAge: 28Details: Well known to local police having been arrested several times for pick-pocketing.C.Name: Michael ClarkeHeight: 1.7 mWeight: 65 kgAge: 20Details: Arrested as a youth for car theft and the selling of stolen goods.D.Name: Mark HughesHeight: 1.6 mWeight: 60kgAge: 29Details: Is wanted by police for several armed robbery of grocery stores, banks and post offices.E.Name: Herb ElliotHeight: 1.6 mWeight: 90kgAge: 22Details: Recently released from prison where he served 2 years for selling stolen goods.F.Name: William DanielsHeight: 1.6 mWeight: 90kgAge: 32Details: Arrested 4 times for the selling of drugs and car theft.以下是相关事件及人物的描述,请把描述与相关插图及提示性文字匹配起来。52A valuable dog was taken while being walked by its owner in City Park yesterday afternoon.
