Try reading the following sentences as fast as you can. “She sells seashells by the seashore. The shells she sells are surely seashells. So if she sells shells on the seashore, I’m sure she sells seashore shells.”

Not very easy, was it? What you’ve just read is called a tongue twister (绕口令). It is an exercise made up of sounds that are hard to pronounce(发音,读) in order to help people pronounce words faster and more correctly. Try the next example.

“Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled pepper. Did Peter Piper pick a peck of pickled peppers? If Pete Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, where’s the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?”

Tongue twisters usually do not have much meaning. They are just designed to improve people’s ability  to pronounce words. Although they may be very difficult, these exercises are very important to people who are trying to speak English correctly. This is because tongue twisters help people to tell the differences between similar sounds.

So if you wish to pronounce words more smoothly, you’d better try picking out some tongue twisters and practicing them.

1.Tongue twisters are helpful in improving ___________ skills.

A. listening        B. writing      C. pronunciation     D. communication

2.The first tongue twister is hard because ___________.

A. it is very boring to read            B. it teaches us a lot of knowledge

C. we don’t know who “she” is        D. the sounds of “s” and “sh” are similar

3.The passage is probably taken from _________ in a school newspaper.

A. Story Time          B. Study Garden

C. Latest News          D. Lost and Found

     As a teacher, I think it is right to tell my students to write about their pure feelings and real experiences. I always taught my students how to learn by experience. And I also found that it helped me a lot to get on well with the students.
     One day after explaining a text,I asked my students to write a passage about their families.I encouraged them to write about their  real  experiences  with  their closest family members. All the students wrote quite well  but  the  best one of them was written by a  little girl. She was Hao Fang. I was deeply moved by her
story. In  her  passage, she said her father  had died years  before  and  her mother  had to  work hard to
support the family. Many times she  had seen her mother work deep into night but never seen tears on her
face.  She also wrote that she needed to stay  strong  and  she would do the best to give her  mothe r an
easier life in the future. Like her mother, Hao  Fang also  worked hard  at  her  lessons  and she was really
good at any of them.  I didn't know anything about her unlucky family till then. She always appeared happy and 'never showed that she needed  anyone's help.
     In order to make her an example to the class, I read  this  passage to the class. When I finished reading
it, I found my throat choked  and  my students' eyes full of tears. After  class nearly  all  my  other students
crowded around Hao Fang and gave their money to help this girl. We knew her family needed money very much. Many students decided to offer her more help. To tell  the  truth, I was really proud  of my students.
But to my surprise, this student of mine didn't express her thanks to  her classmates and left school without even telling me the next day. I was puzzled about this.
     Was  it  right to  tell her sad story to the class? Why did sh e refuse to accept  the  donation? These
questions crowded my mind.
1. The teacher mentioned in the article always _      .         
A. made the students feel sad
B. asked the students to make up stories
C.  helped the students learn from the real life
2. Hao Fang wrote about her family's hard life in order to          .           
A. tell her real experiences
B. show how strong she was
C. ask her classmates for money
3. The underlined word "choked"  means          in Chinese.     
A.哽咽            
B.激动                
C. 疼痛
4. By reading the article, we know that Hao Fang _______ .      
A. appreciated the donation
B. was frustrated at her hard life
C. wanted to improve her family's life by working hard
5. We can learn from the article that       .             
A. the ways of helping people should be well chosen
