　　There are many ways for you to improve your English．You can find the right way for yourself．Here are a few tips that might help：

　　Motivate (激励) yourself

　　If you are not motivated to learn English, you will become frustrated and give up．Ask yourself the following questions：

　　●Why do you need to learn / improve English?

　　●Where will you need to use English?

　　●What skills do you need to learn / improve? (Reading / Writing / Listening / Speaking)

　　●How soon do you need to see results?

　　●How much money can you afford to learn English?

　　●Do you have a plan or a learning strategy (策略)?

　　You know how much time you can dedicate to learning English, but a short time each day will produce better, longer-term (更长期的) results than a full day on the weekend and then nothing for two weeks．

　　Joining a short English intensive course (强化课程) could produce better results than joining a course that takes place once a week for six months．

　　Here are some goals you could set yourself：

　　●Join an English course．

　　●Read an English book every month．

　　●Learn a new word every day．

　　●Visit an English speaking forum (论坛) every day．

阅读下列四篇短文，根据短文内容选择最佳答案。

　　Do you ever feel a stomachache during a test? Are you ever so worried about something that you even have a headache or can't sleep at night? If so, then you know what stress is．Stress is what you feel when you are worried about something．You may feel angry, sad, scared, or afraid －all this can give you a stomachache or a headache．

　　There are different kinds of stress．Some kinds of stress are good and others are bad．Good stress may happen when someone asks you to answer questions in class or when you have to give a report．This kind of stress can help you to finish things better．

　　However, bad stress can happen if the stress lasts too long．You may not feel well if a family member is sick, if you're having problems at school, or if anything else makes you upset every day．That kind of stress isn't going to help you．

　　The best way to keep stress away is to have a balanced life．If you get enough sleep and food, and if you exercise and leave time for fun, you'll feel less stress．

　　One day he said to the children, “People in a lot of Asian countries wear white clothes at funerals(葬礼), but people in America and in Europe wear white in the weddings because white means purity and happiness．What colour does an English woman wear when she gets married?”

　　But then one boy in the class put up his hand．“Yes, Dick?” Roger said, “Do you have a question?” “Yes,” Dick said．“Why do men wear black in our country when they get married, sir?”

　　In every country, there are thousands of people who want to help out．Many join organizations run (管理) by their governments, for example, the Peace Corps in the United States and Voluntary Service Overseas in Britain．Since the powerful (猛烈的) earthquake took place in Sichuan, more than 200 thousand volunteers across China have been helping there! They do all kinds of work or come up with ways to help improve life．Some offer their professional skills for free．Others have no qualifications (资历), but they love to work hard to help．

　　One of the most famous volunteers in the world was Mother Teresa．She could be the best volunteer because she gave her life to helping the poorest people of Calcutta．She helped the homeless, cared for the sick, gave out food, and became the mother of those without families．

　　Now more and more teenagers actively look for volunteering opportunities, too．They volunteer because they think it will be fun or they will learn something．They also like the idea of being helpful to others, even if it is just handing out books for the teacher．As they get older, these reasons are still the same, but there are other important reasons for volunteering such as learning on-the-job, getting work experience, and improving their social life．

　　All volunteers bring joy to the people they help in so many ways．They might read books to the blind, fix up broken homes, find ways to get water for villages．Could you be a volunteer? What kind of volunteer work could you do? There is someone in the world who needs you．
