    One of the speaking rules you need to know might sound strange to most ESL(English as a second language) students, but it is one of the most important rules. If you want to pass examinations, then study grammar. However, if you want to become fluent in English, then you should try to learn English without studying the grammar.
    Studying grammar will only slow you down and confuse you. You will think about the rules when creating sentences instead of naturally saying a sentence like a native. Remember that only a small fraction(部分) of English speakers know more than 20% of all the grammar rules. Many ESL students know more grammar than native speakers. I can confidently say this with experience. I am a native English speaker, majored in English Literature, and have been teaching English for more than 10 years. However, many of my students know more details about English grammar than I do. When they sometimes ask me about grammar, I can easily look up the definition(定义) and apply it, but I can’t tell them the answer off the top of my head.
    I often ask my native English friends some grammar questions, and only a few of them know the correct answer. However, they are fluent in English and can read, speak, listen, and communicate effectively.
    Do you want to be able to recite the definition of a causative verb(使役动词), or do you want to be able to speak English fluently?
    小题1:According to the author, what opinion do most ESL students hold?
    A．Grammar matters a lot only in speaking.
    B．Grammar doesn’t matter much in speaking.
    C．Grammar is not important in English learning.
    D．Grammar is very important in English learning.
    小题2: What is the author?
    A．An ESL student.
    B．A native English teacher.
    C．A native English student.
    D．A teacher teaching English natives.
    小题3: The underlined part “off the top of my head” means ________.
    A．without consideration
    B．on purpose
    C．after thinking
    D．with difficulty
    小题4:Which of the following titles best suits the text?
    A．Grammar Counts!
    B．Fluency or Grammar?
    C．Exams or No Exams?
    D．No More Grammar!

    小题1:D
    小题2:B

    小题4:B

For many, strong  21 of anger, shame, sadness, or disappointment can 22 psychological difficulties such as anxiety, depression or low self-esteem.

    Several heading experts in the field of LD have offered suggestions on ways to help 24 children from these problems.
    To be most effective in supporting 25 , it can help to understand some primary  26  for the psychological and emotional challenges they may face.
    First, it is not difficult to see  27  children with LD are at greater risk for developing psychological difficulties if one considers the repeated failure they 28 . Although they make efforts to “try harder,” children with LD may receive little  29  feedback（反馈）. Their academic struggles and failures are often met with 30 by teachers, peers and parents. Such disapproval can take the form of unpleasant labeling（标签）of a child 31“slow,” “lazy” or “dumb.” 32 developing a sense of pride in their accomplishments, children with LD may  33  in disappointment and shame. Low self-esteem and a lack of confidence only  34 prevent learning and academic success.
    The second reason is the 35 difficulties they often experience. Research indicates that as many as 75% of kids with LD have such 36 as making and keeping friends. Children with LD are less 37 and often rejected by their peers. Teachers and other adults also may  38 to have negative views of them. Such social rejection(排斥)can result in  39 of self-esteem and feelings of loneliness, which,   40  may lead to psychological difficulties such as anxiety and depression.

    Further education is officially described as the“post-secondary stage of education， comprising all vocational(职业的) and non-vocational provision made for young people who have left school， or for adults”. Further education thus embraces the vast range of university， technical， commercial， and art education and the wide field of adult education. It is this sector of education， which is concerned with education beyond the normal school-leaving ages of 16 or 18， that has experienced the most astonishing growth in the number of students.
    In the 19th century the dominance(统治地位) of Oxford and Cambridge was challenged by the rise of the civic(城市的) universities， such as London， Manchester， and Birmingham. Following the lead of the 18th century German universities and responding to a public demand for increased opportunity for higher education， Britain’s new civic universities quickly acquired recognition—not only in technological fields but also in the fine and liberal arts.
    Many new post-school technical colleges were founded in the early 20th century. The Fisher Act of 1918 empowered the local authorities to levy(征收) a rate (tax) to finance such colleges. The universities， on the other hand， received funds from the central government through the University Grants Committee， established in 1911 and recognized in 1920， after World War I.
    A new type of technical college was established in the 1960s—the polytechnic， which provides mainly technological courses of university level as well as courses of a general kind in the arts and sciences. Polytechnics are chartered to award degrees validated(使有效) by a Council for National Academic Awards.
    Thus， the third level in the United Kingdom is made up of colleges of further education， technical colleges， polytechnics， and universities. The colleges offer full-time and part-time courses beyond compulsory-school level. Polytechnics and universities are mainly responsible for degrees and research. The innovative Open University， with its flexible admission policy and study arrangements， opened in 1971. It uses various media to provide highly accessible and flexible higher education for working adults and other part-time students. It serves as an organizational model and provides course-materials for similar institutions in other countries.
    Changes in British education in the second half of the 20th century have， without changing the basic values in the system， extended education by population， level， and content. New areas for expansion include immigrant cultural groups and multicultural content， the accommodation of special needs， and the development of tools and content in the expanding fields of microelectronics.
    小题1:The first paragraph is written to explain 　　　　 of further education.
    A．the developmentB．the history
    C．the definitionD．the prospects(前景)
    小题2:The new civic universities in Britain 　　　　.
    A．replaced the dominance of Oxford and Cambridge
    B．provided further education for all the people who need it
    C．met the increased demand of the public for higher education
    D．immediately followed the establishment of polytechnic colleges
    小题3:Post-school technical colleges 　　　　.
    A．were completely free of charge
    B．were usually financed by local taxes
    C．depended mainly on students’ tuition(学费)
    D．received funds from the central government
    小题4: Further education is 　　　　.
    A．only for adult students
    B．part-time rather than full-time
    C．non-vocational rather than vocational
    D．created for both young people and adults
    小题5:The proper title for this passage should be “　　　　”.
    A．British Further Education
    B．Changes in British Education
    C．Polytechnics and Universities in Britain
    D．Less Opportunity for Higher Education

    For an owl (猫头鹰) with one-metre wingspan, the sky should be the limit. But Troy prefers his bird’s eye view to be no higher than 5 feet 10 inches. The one-year-old owl has an inconvenient symptom: he’s afraid of heights. After an unfortunate start in life when he fell from his nest by accident, Troy was raised by Gareth Tonen, a handler (饲养员), who just happens to be 5 feet 10 inches tall.
    As a result, Troy has grown up without any great ambitions of his own. When it comes to trees, he can’t see what is about and would prefer to fly along at Mr. Tonen’s side. Only when the 25-year-old handler climbs up a tree can Troy be tempted to leave his comfort zone and join him.
    Ashley Smith said, “ Troy’s fear of heights was a result of forgetting how to be a bird. He’s been in captivity (被圈养) for as long as he can remember and has never been higher than his handler can lift him. He sees himself as more of a human than an owl, and he doesn’t know how to sit in trees or hunt. Gareth has to almost act like an owl to get Troy to behave like one.”
    As a result, a daily tree climb has become part of Troy’s – and Mr. Tonen’s – routine. Ladders have been fixed so Mr. Tonen can climb into the trees and call for Troy, who will fly up and join his handler but go no higher. Most of the time he flies down again, but occasionally Mr. Tonen has to carry him back to ground level. The afternoon ends with a meal of mouse, rabbit or his favorite, chicken.
    Mr. Tonen said, “He now looks upon me as his mum or dad. He’s gaining more confidence and if I have to carry on climbing up trees with him then we’ll do what it takes for him to be a high flyer.
    小题1:Troy was brought up by Gareth Tonen because he ______.
    A．couldn’t fly highB．got badly hurt
    C．left his parents accidentallyD．couldn’t live in trees
    小题2: What can you learn from the second paragraph?
    A．Troy doesn’t show any interest in flying high up in the sky.
    B．Gareth Tonen has spoiled Troy by offering him everything.
    C．Gareth Tonen is pleased to see Troy fly along at his side.
    D．Troy would like his owner Gareth Tonen to climb up trees.
    小题3:According to Ashley Smith, Troy doesn’t know he is a bird because ______.
    A．he has developed the symptom of fearing heights.
    B．he has been raised since he was very small.
    C．he can’t learn how to fly higher than his owner.
    D．he doesn’t want to fly among trees hunting for food.
    小题4: Why does Gareth Tonen have to climb up trees every day?
    A．To set an example of flying high to Troy.
    B．To see how high Troy can really fly.
    C．To teach Troy how to get meals in high trees.
    D．To get Troy back down to cure his fear of heights.

    There are several ways to break the technology code that teenagers have written among themselves. The following are ideas to help parents understand the sometimes confusing world of the teens.
    Social Networking (人际关系网) Sites: Sites like MySpace and Facebook appeal to all generations and are a good way for a parent to understand what social standards your teen is living with. There are many ways to help you take part in your child's online activities. You also can be from an onlooker (旁观者) who keeps a bird' s-eye view of his cyber world to an active member of his social group.
    MMORPG: Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game comes in the form of games. A child can easily become addicted to (沉溺于) them if no limits are set. To fully understand the attraction behind MMORPG, you can make your own account and character to explore the digital (数码的) world. Playing the online games may seem strange at first to your teen, but experience has led me to only positive feedback (反应) from young people who can communicate with adults about their gaming experiences.
    Text and Instant Messenger: The ways of teenage communication have produced a whole new language, such as "LOLZ" (laughing out loud) and "PSOS" (parent standing over shoulder). Learning the basic shorthand (速记法) of teens can open up a whole new world of communication, not only talking to your teens, but being able to listen on their terms as well. You may just find yourself texting faster and ending your correspondence (联系) with TTYL (talk to you later). To teens, texting anyone looks cool, even Mom and Dad.
    Email: Emailing your child is easy. This, of course, cannot take the place of face-to-face communication, but it provides another way for your child to reach you. Another benefit is that your child cannot act like he didn't hear you.
    小题1:What does the underlined part "appeal to" in the second paragraph mean?
    A．harmB．attractC．upsetD．attack
    小题2:According to this passage we can infer that the author's child __________.
    A．works hard at school
    B．is active on Facebook
    C．enjoys playing online games
    D．likes talking with adults
    小题3:If you are standing beside your child, he is most likely to text his friend __________.
    A．PSOSB．MMORPGC．TTYLD．LOLZ
    小题4:What does the passage mainly tell us?
    A．Parents can use technology to stay in touch with their children.
    B．Many children are very crazy about the online games.
    C．Science and technology make life easy and convenient.
    D．Parents can do something interesting like their children do.

    In 1886 explorer Robert Peary traveled to Greenland for the U.S. Navy. Before his journey, no one knew Greenland’s size or shape. On Peary’s first trips, he explored Greenland, mapping parts of it.
    When Peary returned to the United States, he went to a businessman to sell some furs. There he met Matthew Henson, an African American mechanic, builder and navigator. When Peary went to Nicaragua on a Navy mission(任务),Henson went with him. When that job was over, the two headed to the Arctic.
    Henson and Peary set sail for Greenland. When they landed, Henson built a house for their base camp. Peary and his men set out to explore the land by dog sledge(雪橇). Henson was injured and had to stay at the base. While there, he made friends with the Inuit, the native people.

    Visitors to Britain may find the best place to sample local culture is in a traditional pub．But these friendly pubs can be dangerous places of potential gaffes（失礼）for the newcomers．
    A team of researchers have discovered some of the unknown customs of British pubs - starting with the difficulty of getting a drink．Most pubs have no waiters - you have to go to the bar to buy drinks．A group of Italian youths waiting 45 minutes before they realized they would have to fetch their own．This may sound inconvenient, but there is a hidden purpose．
    Pub culture is designed to promote sociability（社交）in a society known for its reserve．Standing at the bar for service allows you to chat with others waiting to be served．The bar counter is possibly the only site in the British Isles in which friendly conversation with strangers is considered entirely suitable and really quite normal behavior．“If you haven’t been to a pub, you haven’t been to Britain．” This tip can be found in a booklet, Passport to the Pub: The Tourists’ Guide to Pub Etiquette, a customers’ rule of conduct for those wanting to sample “a central part of British life and culture”．
    The trouble is that if you do not follow the local rules, the experience may fall flat．For example, if you are in a big group, it is best if only one or two people go to buy the drinks．Nothing annoys the regular customers and bar staff more than a group of strangers blocking all access to the bar while they chat and hesitate about what to order．
    小题1:The underlined word “sample” in the first paragraph probably means “________”．
    A．tasteB．experience
    C．testD．record
    小题2:The culture of pub in Britain is so developed to ________．
    A．encourage people to communicate with each other
    B．encourage more people to consume drinks
    C．attract more tourists to the pubs
    D．form its own character of culture
    小题3:If you don’t follow the local rules in a pub, ________．
    A．you won’t buy good local drinks
    B．you may annoy the regular customers and bar staff
    C．you may fail to feel the local culture
    D．you might get into a dangerous place
    小题4:What may be the best title for the passage?
    A．Self-service Pubs in Britain
    B．British Local Pubs: Special Chat Places
    C．Local Pub Culture in Britain
    D．Manners in British Local Pubs
