跟江博老师学英语 （听力篇 ） 近来有一些学员来信询问如何学好英语听力？这些学员向我们苦诉屡次向听力发起攻势而不破，由此产生怀疑：自己的战略战术是不是有问题？听力的堡垒是不是铜墙铁壁？多次的失败，使很多人“军心动摇”，甚至做了逃兵。却不知征服听力是一场艰苦的“持久战”，换句话说：听力不行，关键不是方法的问题，而是听得够不够的问题！英语听力是在长期的听力练习和语言实践中培养、提高的。 值得提倡的应该是：在正式练习英语听力之前，每个人都应该认真地听过，模仿过至少一套英语的基本语音、语调训练。开始练习听力要遵循由简单到复杂，由慢到快的规律，循序渐进。但每次听力练习的时间不宜过长，为了将听到的信息迅速储存在大脑中，并对这些信息做出相应的判断，此时大脑一直处于一种紧张的状态，因此最好每次练习时间在一个小时左右，但要保证自已英语每天听力练习的“量”。听力的练习分为精听和泛听，两种方式相辅相承、各有侧重。 精听练习 ☆ 作用：有效提高听力的必经之路， ☆ 材料选择：一般选择练习的材料为短而精的有声材料，同时配有标准答案，难度适中，学员自已的英语课程主修教材的配套磁带，或者是根据学员目前的英语水平，选择： 1、最有效的听力材料： 华东师大出版社的《英语扣力入门《step by step 》(新版) 外研社出版的《英语初（中）（高）级听力》（Listen To This ） 新概念英语》 （原文磁带1——3册）等， 2、最能同时提高口语和听力的材料： 《#字符已过滤#》 《英语随声听》 及英文电影等。 ☆ 步骤： 1）首先不要看文字材料，多次重复听 2）如果针对考试，要进行听写练习，主要记录文章的大意和一些重要的信息，如时间、地点、数量、人物等等， 3）直到完全听懂每一个单词 4）达到可以跟着材料复述的程度，但复述不是辩音，而是大脑在思索、背诵。 另外要准备一本配套的听力练习检测材料，有检验你的理解程度的作用，但如果不是专门针对考试，有无练习并不是很重要。 泛听练习 ☆ 作用：具有营造英语环境，冲击耳膜，强迫大脑接受信息，巩固词汇、表达，丰富口语素材的作用。 ☆ 材料选择：难度或者较大——强迫大脑；或者较小——巩固词汇与表达，比如：VOA的Standard English 、BBC电台的广播、或者一些经典的英文歌曲。 时间：充分利用各种零散的时间，随时随地都可能进行。比如：在洗漱时听英文台广播，在乘车时听walkman等等。但要尽量减少被外界影响、注意力分散。 ☆ 要求：最好在长期练习中形成一种英语“应击性”，即对英语的一种特殊的敏感。我现在就有这样一种“应击性”，只要听到有人说英语，就会马上竖起耳朵听这是其它一切声音都似乎消失当听力材料较难时，不必苛求自已，尽力而为即可，听懂一个单词也是胜利！ 英语听力能力的获得并非一日之功，恒心和毅力是任何成功的必要条件。英语听力能力是英语语言综合能力的体现，因此我们在加强英语听力技能训练的同时，也要不断扩大词汇量、提高阅读能力，并重视应用与实践相结合，以达到全面提高英语听、说、读、写、译的综合素质。

（语法篇） 学英语难，难在语法。学习英语语法的过程是一个真正理解并掌握英语语言的过程，也是全面提高英语听、说、读、写能力的过程。掌握语法不仅需要超凡的毅力，还需要不断地总结积累与全方位的联想记忆，否则你只能钻进法中而不出，不能活用。 《新概念英语》中蕴藏着大量地道精美的句型结构。实际上，在分析与理解这些句型的同时，你就能轻松地掌握英语中的重要语言现象。 记住：掌握一个经典句型，就能掌握一个语法要点！ 同位语（Appositive）是英语语法的重点内容，也是各类考试中的一个考点，同时，在写作中正确运用同位语可以使你的句型更加简洁得体。 《新概念英语》第三册第一课有这样一个句子； When reports came into London zoo that a wild puma had been spotted forty-five miles south of London ,they were not taken seriously. (当伦敦动物园接到报告说，在伦敦以南45英里处发现一只美洲狮时，这些报告并没有受到重视。) 在这里，a wild puma had been spotted forty-five miles south of London 就是同位语从句，它本来应该放在“reports”后面，这里却被放在了谓语成分came into London zoo 的后面，目的是让句型显得更为稳重。 1、简单记忆：同位语从句，就是对某些名词做进一步的解释的句子。 I’m greatly shocked when I heard the news that his father died yesterday. (that 引导的句子解释了news的内容，注意：that 不做任何成分) We have to face the fact that the weather is unexpectedly bad. (that 引导的句子解释了fact 的内容) 2、联想记忆： 能接同位语从句的名词有：belief(信仰)，fact ,idea, doubt, rumor (谣言)，evidence(证据)，conclusion(结论)、suggestion（建议）、problem, order, answer, discovery(发现)，explanation(解释)，principle(原则),possibility(可能性)，truth, promise(承诺)，report（报告），statement(声明)，knowledge(知识)，opinion（观点），likelihood(可能性)，【大声朗读三遍，背下即可！】 3、王牌要点： 同位语一般由that引导，但也可以有关系代词which, who, what ,和关系副词when, where, why, how 或whether引导。 The teacher came to the conclusion that the student had been lying . There arose the question whether we could win the game . I have no idea how to explain it . 一些介词词组后面也能引导同位语从句。（非常经典的功能句式，可用于四六级和托福作文，不妨一试！） on the ground (由于… …原因) on the condition that （在… …条件下） on the assumption (假设在…. …情况下) with the exception （有… …例外） owing to the fact （由于… …事实） on the understanding (基于… …理解) 例句：The young lady promised to marry the old man on the condition that he bought her a villa . 那位年轻的女士答应嫁给那位老头，条件是他给她买一幅别墅。 4、分隔式同位语从句 为了使句型平衡不至于头重脚轻，有时同位语从句与所联系的词中间被别的词分隔开或 放到句子的末尾，（读两遍比定义，然后看例句：） An idea came to him that he might write to her to ask more information about the matter . I got information from my friend there will be a marvellous American movie Deep Impact . 5、同位语从句与定语从句之区别 简单记忆：定语从句的引导词that 在句子中作成分（主语或宾语），而同位语从句中的 that 为连词，只起连接主句和从句之作用，不作任何成分。 示例：I’ve got an answer that A is right. (同位语从句，that 不做成分) I’ ve got an answer that surprised me a lot. (定语从句,that 做定语从句的主语) 6、王牌重点：可以充当同位语的词组或短语。 （1）、名词短语。（使句型更为简洁） Bill Clinton , the president of America , came to China to pay an official visit in 1998. Lu xun ,one of the greatest essayists in China ,played an overwhelmingly important role in Chinese literature history . (2)、动名词词组亦可用作同位语：（使句型流畅）注意：别忘了加逗号。 I’m crazy about the game , playing baseball . Going to concert, that sounds a great idea . (3)、不定式短语。（陌生只是掌握的开始） The problem what to do next remains unsoved . Her claim to have finished his work is nothing but a white lie . (4)、形容词词组（用逗号隔开） All the workers ,young or old ,should be treated equally. Young man ,short or tall ,should have the right to take the opportunity . 7、同位语的引导词。（重要！这是写作中不可缺少的引导成分） 引导词用来表示同位语与它所说明的同位成分之间的关系； （1）、namely , that is , that is to say (也就是说), in other words (换句话说)，or ,for short表示等同关系。 （2）、such as ,say ,so to speak (譬如说), including (包括) for instance 【或for example (e.g./eg)】表示举例的列举关系。 （3）、especially, more importantly ,chiefly ,mostly ,or better ,in particular ,particularly 表示突出重点，在高难度阅读中表示后面的部分为更重要或更突出的部分，是出题的关键点。

（口语篇） 要想使自已的英语口语多姿多彩，魅力无穷，并能很快吸引对方，仅仅流利快速是不够的。许多英语专业毕业生在同外国人交流过程中，经常出现尴尬的场面，两个人都无法准确理解对方。中国学生语速倒是很快，但由于用词的不准确，表达方式的不贴切以及过分追求难词造成的歧义都会使双方感到交流的不畅快，所以，外国人评价中国学生的口语是“Too strange to be true !”(太奇怪，不真实)或“Too beautiful to be natural !”（用词华丽但不自然）使言谈增色，就需要你灵活运用外国人经常使用的习惯说话，包括习语，不过时 的俚语及大量的富有特色的语句。不要害怕模仿，只要运用得当，你尽可以引经据典，洋洋洒洒。 当别人在你旁边罗嗦个没完，你烦透了，说“You are so boring “.(你真烦！)。“Shut up !”（闭嘴！）自然没错，可人家受得了吗？不如来一句“Oh, come on .Give me a break !” (帮帮忙，让我歇歇吧！)这多地道、多幽默。 要想说人“气色好”。“You look fine !”当然不错，可如果你说”You’re in the pink !”就妙得多了，实际上，在英语口语中，表示颜色的词用起来非常形象生动。 “他精力充沛”美国人说：“He is bouncy.”而不说“He is energetic ”,牢记一些日常对话中的活句式是你一把必备的钥匙。 如：久仰，“I get mind of you “.比”I heard a lot about you.”轻松得多。 代问他人好当然能用”Please remember me to your sister .” 或”Please give my best wishes to your father ”不过，若是很好的朋友，何不说，“Please give my love to Jim。” 在中国可不能随便说“我想你”，然而，当和西方人分手时说“I will miss you .”要比说“Good-bye”或“See you soon”有趣得多，不妨一试。 有人开会迟到了，你若对他说 “You are late .”，听起来象是废话，若说“Did you get lost ?”，则更能让他歉然，可别说成“Get lost!”那可是让人滚蛋的意思。 别人征求你的意见，问能否开窗户等，你要说“You can do that .”就有点土了，用一句“Do you have the time? ”实际上，问他人的姓名，地址都可以这么用：“May I have you name?“要比”What’s your name ? ”礼貌得多，不过警察例外。 别人问你不愿公开的问题，切勿用“It’s my secret ,Don’t ask such a personal question .”回答，一来显得你没有个性，二来也让对方尴尬。你可以说“I would rather not say .”（还是别说了吧！）。 有时候，你想说什么，可说是想不起来，你可以说“Well …”“Let me see”“Just a moment ”或“It’s on the tip of my tongue.”等，想比之下，最后一个句型是最地道的。 交谈时，你可能会转换话题，不要只说“By the way ”,实际上，“To change the subject”“Before I forget”“While I remember”“Mind you ”都是既地道有受欢迎的表达。 遇到你不懂的问题时可别不懂装懂，“I know”可能是中国人用得最多，而美国人最不能接受的一句话。当一美国教师向你解释某个问题时，你如果连说两遍“I know”可能是中国人用得最多，而美国人最不能接受的一句话。当一美国教师向你解释某个问题时，你如果连说两遍“I know”,我敢保证，他不会再跟你说什么了。用“I know ”或“I got it ”就顺耳得多，要是不懂就说“I’m not clear about it .”不过如果你会说“It’s past my understanding”或“It’s beyond me .”你的教师定会惊讶不已的。 要想将地道习语熟练地运用于口语，下面内容，不可不读： ☆ a black sheep 败家子 绵羊一般为白色，一旦成了黑色的绵羊，一定是个“败类”。 Eric is a black sheep ,splashing one million dollars in a few years . 艾瑞克是个败家子，几年就挥霍了一百万美金。 ☆ A rough diamond 内秀外粗的人 Rough diamond 指“没加工的钻石”，用来指内秀外粗的人，真是妙语！ {脱口说} The guy is really a rough diamond , and he can get everything right ,although he is a little bit careless . 这家伙真的是个外粗内秀的人，他什么都能搞定，虽然他有点大大咧咧的。 ☆ Be level-headed (calm and relaxed) 头脑冷静的人 可别以为 level-headed 是“小平头”，“平头”的英语说法是“crew cut”,他留了个平头——He wears his hair in a crew cut . {脱口说} My boss ,John Smith ,is the most level –headed man I’ve ever known . 我的老板约翰.史密斯是我见过的头脑最冷静的人。 ☆ A greaseball (greasy guy ) 油腔滑调的人，“老油条” Grease 油脂的意思，greaseball 的意思是涂满油脂的球，专指那些油腔滑调的人，这类人近似于我们常说的“嘴太贫”的人。 {脱口说} Mary’s boyfriend is such a greaseball , I don’t know why she is so crazy about him . 玛丽的男友是个油腔滑调的家伙，我不明白为什么她如此地迷恋他。 ☆ Weigh on one’s mind 心事重重 {脱口说} Do you know what has happened to her recently? She seems to have something that weighs heavily on her mind these days 你知道她最近发生了什么事吗？她看起来心事很重。 ☆ Be green-eyed (be jealousy) 嫉妒的“红眼病” 源自莎士比亚名剧《奥赛罗》第3幕第3场中的台词“O! be ware , my lord ,of jealousy;/It’s the green-eyed monster… …“ 中国人嫉妒时，是“红眼病”，英美国家的人则“绿了眼”，有意思。在美国，有时直接用green表示嫉妒。 When I got the well-paid job in a foreign company , my friends were somewhat green with envy . 当我在一家外企找了份收入丰厚的工作时，我的朋友都有点嫉妒我。 这么三言两语，自然不可能道尽英语口语中真谛，不过，若能牢牢掌握一些地道的表达句型 ，你一定可以讲出一口魅力无穷的英语来。相信自己！ 英语口语学习——学会赞美 在中国人的眼里，西方人过于自信，且不谦虚。实际上，自信（self-assurance）是他们民族特征的一部分，但这并不说明他们总是自以为是。相反，他们对别人的言行举止、衣着打扮、甚至一点点的帮助都是积极地表示赞美（compliment）,被赞美者也总是表示感谢。因此，学会表达赞美和感谢是我们口语学习的一个极其重要的内容。 同时，对别人的穿着以及与其有关的物品、宠物的有意夸赞也是引起交流话题的绝好方法。如在公园里，你欲与一位女士说话，最为保险的开始交流的方式就是赞美与她有关的东西，如： ☆ Your doggy looks quite lovely , doesn’t he ? （你的狗宝宝看上去真可爱！） ☆ Excuse me ,but your blue coat is pretty beautiful ,Where did you buy it ? (打扰你了。你的蓝上衣真是漂亮，哪儿买的？) 在同外国人士交往过程中，你要注意别人的外表是否有了大的变化或添了新的装饰，如新发型、新衣服、首饰等。然后加以适当的赞美,但无须过分,否则就有虚情假意之嫌.即便是对方外观没有大的改观，但比平时略显精神，你也可以说， ☆ “Ben, you look very good today.”或Ben ,you’re looking energetic these days .” (本，你近来显得活力十足。) 在美国，对别人新添置的物品都要习惯地加以赞美，如 ☆ “Hey, I’m crazy about your new bicycle.” (嘿，我真喜欢你的新自行车。) ☆ “Your new dress has brilliant color!” (你的新衣服颜色真鲜艳！) 如果被邀请去参观朋友的住宅、办公室或公司，对其加以赞美就是比不可少的了。 ☆ “I can’t imagine you have such a splendid house !” (真不敢相信你竟有这么豪华的房子。) ☆ “How nice your office looks “ （你的办公室看上去不错。） 要知道，没人不爱听这些。 不过在吃饭时，外国人对你菜肴的赞美往往只是礼貌，即使他们吃不惯，他们也会说“The dish is delicious ”可不要拿出中国人的豪爽，没完没了给他夹菜，浪费了不说，还常常弄得对方难堪。 表达赞美时需要注意以下情况： 1、赞美一两句即可，当别人表示感谢之后就可打住，或进入别的话题。 2、若别人向你展示新买的衣服等，即便你对它感觉不如意，也要尽量发现你感兴趣的地方，如颜色、样式等加以赞美。 3、中国人很少当面夸赞别人的妻子长得如何漂亮，而在西方文化中， 对别人妻子的赞美是活跃气氛并且很受欢迎的。不过，赞美之后，你的眼睛久久不能从那女士的脸上挪开，可就另当别论了。 4、赞美别人的首饰或衣服之后不要画蛇添足， 问她一句，“It must be very expensive. How much is it?”（这一定很贵吧。多少钱啊？） 5、无论别人怎样赞美你，你只要一句“Thanks a lot.”就足以达到交流的效果，无须中国式的谦虚，“No, No”，会让赞美你的人莫明其妙，甚至认为你怀疑他的审美观有问题。 6、美国老师上课时大多慈悲为怀，只要学生开口，无论怎样信口开河或者牛头不对马嘴，老师都会说“Good job!”；“Very nice!”；“Ok, you have a creative answer”；“What an original opinion!”。这既能鼓励学生，又能激发学生参与的积极性。这可是中国老师不妨学学的地方。 7、在英美国家的各种聚会上，女士们常夸赞自己的丈夫有能力，夸赞自己的孩子如何聪明可爱；男士们也常夸赞自己的妻子温柔可人，夸赞自己的老板如何地重用自己，这既能活跃气氛，又能尽显自己人性美的一部分。若有机会你参加外国人的ball（舞会），你也不妨收起你的谦虚，将你的赞美适时适度地表达出来。 如何让别人对你所说的感兴趣，可以说直接决定了你交流的效果。有很多人在用英语表达观点时，常常是洋洋洒洒，滔滔不绝，说者根本不注意也不想注意听者是否感兴趣，结果，说了半天，还只是一个人在那里神侃一通，别人不感兴趣不说，相互之间交流的目的也就无法达到。 要想使对方对你所说的感兴趣，你就必须做到“三会”，即要会问，会察言观色，会用各种方式吸引对方的注意力。 1.会问，就是善于用问句（包括一般疑问句，特殊疑问句及反意疑问句）迫使对方做出反应。 “What’s up?” “What’s new?” 只是熟人之间的招呼语，且不宜用于正式的社交场合。 那么你可以通过征求意见的方法来发问， 如：“How do you like my story?”（你喜欢我的故事吗？） “What do you think of the movie?”（你认为这部电影如何？） “It’s very funny ,isn’t it?”（这非常有趣，是不是？） 所有这些问句都会让对方做出回答，这样你也给对方一个接话的机会。 当然在开始对话之前，你也可以先说出你对谋事的看法，然后再征询对方的意见，这也是引起对方兴趣的有效方式。 如：“I'd like to tell you something about the matter, and it is of great significance. Do you have interest in talking about that?”, 这样可以先试探对方的态度。 当然，在一些英语之角或英语晚会上，你可直接问一些别人有话可说的话题。 如：“What do you do for fun?”对方可能会说“Oh, I have a lot of interests, I care much about ball games, I like collecting stamps……”如此等等，话题就能源源不断。 2.要善于相时而“说”，也就是要根据对方的反应转换或终止话题。下面一些情况都表明对方对你的话题不太感兴趣。 1）将头有意无意地扭开。 2）目光盯在别处。 3）多次想打断你。 4）脸上露出不耐烦的神情。 这时，你就必须有意识的转换话题。在日常交流中，转换话题既能重新唤起对方的注意，又可以有效控制交谈，不至于出现尴尬的局面。 常用的转换话题句式： ＊Let’s change the subject(让我们换个话题吧。) ＊Oh, before I forget, / Oh, while I remember,……（哦，差点忘了，……） ＊Well, I knew there was something I meant to tell you,……(噢，我知道我原本有件事要告诉你，……) ＊Could we move on to the problem of ……?(我们能接着谈谈……问题吗？) ＊On a totally different matter, now, let’s talk about……(现在有个完全不同的问题，我们谈谈) 3.除此之外，你还可以用各种方式吸引对方。 “Well.”（声音抬高，引起注意） “And then what do you think happened next?”(接着你知道发生什么事了吗？——重新激起兴趣。) 同时你还可以用笑声、叹词等来引起对方的注意。

（阅读篇） 多在校学生都曾遇到过，明明文章能看懂，但题却做得不够正确，经历了几次，不但对自已的阅读能力产生了怀疑，而且对考试中的阅读试题也产生了一种恐惧感。在这里我们帮助大家对学习英语阅读过程，需注意的几个问题进行阐释。 1、区别对待不同性质的阅读任务 精读，一定要落实到词、句篇章结构，对重要内容还要加以朗读、诵读，加强记忆。浏览，要形成习惯。养成每天翻翻英文报纸、杂志的习惯。寻读，要始终记住自已寻找的目标，不要东翻翻、西翻翻、看到有趣的材料就要忘记了自已原定的目标，在查阅辞典时，很多学习者都容易犯这样的错误。研读，要把重心放在信息内容上，不要过分关注语言现象。 2、提高阅读速度和提高阅读理解的准确性一样重要 培养速读能力的关键是选好材料，大量阅读。速读训练的阅读材料，生词率不超过10%。要在大量阅读中培养理解的直接感悟能力，不能把阅读理解建立在分析和翻译的基础上。这样永远培养不出速读能力。生词率太高的阅读材料，需要经常查词典，即破坏阅读兴趣又降低阅读速度。值得注意的是，阅读自已比较感兴趣的材料，图文结合的图书，能够让您从阅读中找到乐趣，增长学习的激情，获得广泛的知识。 3、培养阅读习惯 坚持每周读英文报纸、杂志、每月读一本英语简易读物，每天晚上读几页英语“闲书”才睡觉。坚持一段时间后，会形成习惯，不读反倒不习惯了。 4、不要过分注意生词和语法 许多学生都想通地泛读来扩大英语词汇量，这本来是可行的，但许多人把扩大词汇量变成了阅读的目的，一打开书就拿彩色笔划生词，然后查词典、背定义，搞得阅读完全失去了阅览室读的本性，还有的学生明明读懂了，却死抠语法，非要把活生生的句子肢解成一推语法术语，结果严重影响了阅读技能的发展和提高。 5、不能把各种考试中的阅读理解和阅读能力划等号 阅读能力很强的人也未必一定能在各种考试的阅读理解部分得高分，因为阅读理解题作为一种英语测试手段，它必须满足作为测试手段的一些要求，如信度要求。为了提高干扰和答案搞得以是而非，理解考题比理解文章还难，做阅读理解题变成了思辩游戏，而且裁判只有一个，他还永远是对的。因此，我们常常发现一些学生原文理解得很透彻，做阅读理解题却还是丢分，这对学习阅读的信心会产生很大的打击。因此，我们不主张通过做大量的阅读理解题来培养学生的阅读能力。

有没有什么方法能让我把它COPY下来，慢慢看，慢慢体会呀，唉，真要命！

Passage 1 Oceanography has been defined as 'The application of all sciences to the study of the sea'. Before the nineteenth century, scientists with an interest in the sea were few and far between. Certainly Newton considered some theoretical aspects of it in-his writings, but he was reluctant to go to sea to further his work. For most people the sea was remote, and with the exception of early intercontinental travellers or others who earned a living from the sea, there was little reason to ask many questions about it, 1et alone to ask what lay beneath the surface. The first time that the question 'What is at the bottom of the oceans ' had to be answered with any commercial consequence was when the laying of a telegraph cable from Europe to America was proposed. The engineers had to know the depth profile of the mute to estimate the length of cable that had to be manufactured. It was to Maury of the US Navy that the Atlantic Telegraph Company turned, in 1853, for information on this matter. In the 1840s,Maury had been responsible for encouraging voyages during which soundings were taken to investigate the depths of the North Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Later, some of his findings aroused much popular interest in his book The Physical Geography of the Sea. The cable was laid, but not until 1866was the connection made permanent and reliable. At the early attempts, the cable failed and when it was taken out for repairs it was found to be covered in living growths, a fact which defied contemporary scientific opinion that there was no life in the deeper parts of the sea. Within a few years oceanography was under way. In 1872Thomson led a scientific expedition , which lasted for four years and brought home thousands of samples from the sea. Their classification and analysis occupied scientists for years and led to a five-volume report, the last volume being published in 1895. 1. The passage implies that the telegraph cable was built mainly_____ A)for oceanographic studies C)for business considerations B)for military purposes D)for investigating the depths of the oceans 2.It was_____ that asked Maury for help in oceanographic studies. A)the American Navy B)some early intercontinental travellers C)those who earned a living from the sea D)the company which proposed to lay an undersea cable 3.The aim of voyages Maury encouraged in the 1840s was____ A)to make some sound experiments in the oceans B)to collect samples of sea plants and animals C)to estimate the length of cable that was to be made D)to measure the depths of two oceans 4.'Defied' in the 5th paragraph probably means_____ A)'doubted' C)'challenged' B)'gave proof to' D)'agreed to' 5.This passage is mainly about________ A)the beginnings of oceanography B)the laying of the first undersea cable C)the investigation of ocean depths D)the early intercontinental communications 6.The author's attitude in this passage is _____ A)critical B)objective C)warmhearted D)sad Passage 1: CDDCAB

Passage 2 The speaker, a teacher from a community college, addressed a sympathetic audience. Heads nodded in agreement when he said, "High school English teachers are not doing their jobs." He described the inadequacies of his students, all high school graduates who can use language only at a grade 9 level. I was unable to determine from his answers to my questions how this grade 9 level had been established. My topic is not standards nor its decline.What the speaker was really saying is that he is no longer young; he has been teaching for sixteen years, and is able to think and speak like a mature adult. My point is that the frequent complaint of one generation about the one immediately following it is inevitable. It is also human nature to l Tk for the reasons for our dissatisfaction. Before English became a school subject in the late nineteenth century, it was difficult to find the target of the blame for language deficiencies.But since then, English teachers have been under constant attack. The complainers think they have hit upon an original idea. As their own command of the language improves, they notice that young people do not have this same ability. Unaware that their own ability has developed through the years, they assume the new generation of young people must be hopeless in this respect. To the eyes and ears of sensitive adults. The language of the young always seems inadequate. Since this concern about the decline and fall of the English language is not perceived as a generational phenomenon but rather as something new and peculiar to today's young people, it naturally follows that today 's English teachers cannot be doing their jobs. Otherwise, young people would not commit offenses against the language. 1.The speaker the author mentioned in the passage believed that A) the language of the younger generation is usually inferior to that of the older generation B) the students had a poor command of English because they didn't work hard enough C) he was an excellent language teacher because he had been teaching English for sixteen years D) English teachers should be held responsible for the students, poor command of English 2.In the author's opinion, the speaker A) gave a correct judgement of the English level of the students B) had exaggerated the language problems of the students C) was right in saying that English teachers were not doing their jobs D) could think and speak intelligently 3.The author's attitude towards the speaker's remarks is________ . A) neutral C) critical B) positive D)compromising 4.It can be concluded from the passage that A) it b justifiable to include English as a school subject B) the author disagrees with the speaker over the standard of English at Grade 9level C) English language teaching is by no means an easy job D) Language improvement needs time and effort 5.In the passage the author argues that A) it is unfair to blame the English teachers for the language deficiencies of the students B) young people would not commit offences against the language if the teachers did their jobs properly C) to eliminate language deficiencies one must have sensitive eyes and ears D) to improve the standard of English requires the effort of several generations Passage 2: DBCDA

Passage 3 For some time past it has been widely accepted that babies -- and other creatures -- learn to do things because certain acts lead to "rewards"; and there is no reason to doubt that this is true. But it used also to be widely believed that effective rewards, at least in the early stages, had to be directly related to such basic physiological "drives" as thirst or hunger. In other words, a baby would learn if he got food or drink or some sort of physical comfort, not otherwise. It is now clear that this is not so. Babies will learn to behave in ways that produce resuits in the world with no reward except the successful outcome. Papousek began his studies by using milk in the normal way to "reward" the babies and so teach them to carry out some simple movements, such as turning the head to one side or the other. Then he noticed that a baby who had had enough to drink would refuse the milk but would still goon making the learned response with clear signs of pleasure. So he began to study the children's responses in situations where no milk was provided. He quickly found that children as young as four months would learn to turn their heads to right or left if the movement "switched on" a display of lights-and indeed that they were capable of learning quite complex turns to bring about this result ,for instance ,two left or two right ,or even to make as many as three turns to one side. Papousek's light display was placed directly in front of the babies and he made the interesting observation that sometimes they would not turn back to watch the lights closely although they would "smile and bubble" when the display came on. Papousek concluded that it was not primarily the sight of the lights which pleased them, it was the success they were achieving in solving the problem, in mastering the skill, and that there exists a fundamental human urge to make sense of the world and bring it under intentional control . 1.According to the author, babies learn to do things which_______ A) are directly related to pleasure C)will bring them a feeling of success B) will meet their physical needs D)will satisfy their curiosity 2.Papousek noticed in his studies that a baby________ A)would make learned responses when it saw the milk B)would carry out learned movements when it had enough to drink C)would continue the simple movements without being given milk D)would turn its head to right or left when it had enough to drink 3.In Papousek's experiment babies make learned movements of the head in order to_______ A)have the lights turned on C)please their parents B)be rewarded with milk D)be praised 4.The babies would "smile and bubble" at the lights because_____ A)the lights were directly related to some basic "drives" B)the sight of the lights was interesting C)they need not turn back to watch the lights D)they succeeded in "switching on" the lights 5.According to Papousek, the pleasure babies get in achieving something is a reflection of __________ A)a basic human desire to understand and control the world B)the satisfaction of certain physiological needs C)their strong desire to solve complex problems D)a fundamenta1human urge to display their learned skills Passage 3: CCADA

Passage 4 Just seven years ago, the Jarvik-7 artificial heart was being cheered as the model of human creativeness. The sight of Barney Clark-alive and conscious after trading his diseased heart for a metal-and-plastic pump-convinced the press, the public and many doctors that the future had arrived. It hadn't. After monitoring production of the Jarvik-7, and reviewing its effects on the 150 or so patients (most of whom got the device as a temporary measure) the U.S Food and Drug Administration concluded that the machine was doing more to endanger lives than to save them. Last week the agency cancelled its earlier approval, effectively banning the device. The recall may hurt Symbion Inc, maker of the Jarvik-7, but it wont end the request for an artificial heart. One problem with the banned model is that the tubes connecting it to an external power source created a passage for infection. Inventors are now working on new devices that would be fully placed, along with a tiny power pack, in the patient 's chest. The first samply products aren't expected for another 10 or 20 years. But some people are already worrying that they'll work-and that America`s overextended health-care programs will lose a precious $2.5 billion to $5 billion a year providing them for a relatively few dying patients. If such expenditures cut into funding for more basic care, the net effect could actually be a decline in the nation's health. 1. According to the passage the Jarvik-7artificial heart proved to be_______. A)a technical failure B)a technical wonder C)a good life-saver D)an effective means to treat heart disease 2. From the passage we know that Symbion Inc ______. A)has been banned by the government from producing artificial hearts B)will review the effects of artificial hearts before designing new models C)may continue to work on new models of reliable artificial hearts D)can make new models of artificial hearts available on the market in 1O to 20 years 3. The new models of artificial hearts are expected ______. A)to have a working life of 10 or 20 years B)to be set fully in the patient's chest C)to be equipped with an external power source D)to create a new passage for infection 4. The word "them" in Line 7, Para. 2 refers to _____ A) doctors who treat heart diseases B) makers of artificial hearts C) America's health-care programs D) New model of artificial hearts 5. Some people feel that______. A)artificial hearts are seldom effective B)the country should not spend so much money on artificial hearts C)the country is not spending enough money on artificial hearts D)America's health-care programs are not doing enough for the nation's health Passage 4: ACBDB

Passage 5 We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed-ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade! Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning. In our classroom, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to cooperate, to share, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyse and evaluate, and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher. Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them. the skills they need in order to do this efficiently . An advanced pupil can do advanced work: it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal. 1.In the passage the author's attitude towards 'mixed-ability teaching, is A)critical C)approving B)questioning D)objective 2.By'held back,(Line 1)the author means' A)made to remain in the same classes B)forced to study in the lower classes C)drawn to their studies E) prevented from advancing 3.The author argues that a teacher's chief concern should be the development of the student' A) personal qualities and social skills B)total personality C)learning ability and communicative skills D)intellectual ability 4.Which of the following is NOT MENTIONED in the third paragraph A)Group work gives pupils the opportunity to learn to work together with others. B)Pupils aim learn to develop their reasoning abilities. C)Group work provides pupils with the opportunity to learn to be capable organizers. D)Pupils also learn how to participate in teaching activities. 5.The author's purpose of writing this passage is to A) argue for teaching bright and not-| -bright pupils in the same class B)recommend pair work and group work for classroom activities C)offer advice on the proper use of the library D)emphasize the importance of appropriate formal classroom teaching Passage 5:CDBDA
