Here are a few tips we’ve put together to help you learn English well.

Speak, speak, speak

Practise speaking as often as you can—even speaking to yourself is good practice.

Try recording yourself whenever you can. Compare your pronunciation with the master version, see how you can do better and have another go. If you do this several times, you will find that each version is better than the last.

Why not learn with someone else?

It helps if you can learn with someone else. If you can persuade a friend or a family member to study with you, it will make you keep working.

Don’t get stuck by a word you don’t know.

Practise improvising(即兴的)ways of getting your meaning across when speaking spontaneously(本能地), even if you don’t know the exact words or phrases. Think of things you might want to say whenever you have spare time. Use facial expressions, hand movements, anything to get your meaning across.

Language learning is also about intuition(直觉).

Guesswork is an important way to learn a new language. When listening to recorded material, you aren’t expected to understand everything first round. If you play the same piece several times, you will most probably understand something new each time.

Build up your vocabulary.

A wide vocabulary is the key to successful language learning but don’t try to learn too much at once. It’s best to study frequently, for short periods of time. Take at most six or seven items of vocabulary and learn them. Put them into sentences to fix them in your mind, then come back to them later.

And above all, have fun!

1.Why should one have himself recorded when practicing speaking?

A. To improve his speaking.             B. To record his own progress.

C. To encourage others to start.           D. To compare himself with others.

A. Speaking.      B. Pleasure.         C. Intuition.      D. Vocabulary.

In bringing up children, every parent watches eagerly the child’s acquisition(学会)of each new skill — the first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is common that parents hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, and a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural enthusiasm(热情) for life and his desire to find out new things for himself.

Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money matters; others are severe over time of coming home at night or punctuality(准时)for meals. In general, the controls imposed(强加的)represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community(社区)as much as the child’s own happiness.

As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consistency is very important in parental teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality.  Also, parents should realize that “example is better than precept”. If they are not sincere and do not practice what they preach(说教), their children may grow confused, and emotionally insecure when they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled.

A sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents’ principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.

1.Eagerly watching the child’s acquisition of new skills _____.

A.should be avoided

B.is universal among parents

C.sets up dangerous states of worry in the child

D.will make him lose interest in learning new things

2.When children are learning new skills, parents should _____.

A.achieve a balance between pushing them too hard and leaving them on their own

B.not expect too much of them

C.encourage them to read before they know the meaning of the words they read

D.create as many learning opportunities as possible

3.The second paragraph mainly tells us that _____.

A.parental restrictions vary, and are not always enforced for the benefit of the children alone

B.parental controls satisfy only the needs of the parents and the values of the community

C.parents should be strict with their children

D.parents vary in their strictness towards their children according to the situation

4.The underlined word “precept” (in Paragraph 3) probably means “_____”.

A.idea

B.punishment

C.instruction

D.behaviour

5.In moral matters, parents should _____.

A.satisfy their children’s needs

B.be aware of the marked difference between adults and children

C.forbid things which have no foundation in morality

D.observe(遵守,奉行) the rules themselves

In the Harry Potter films, Hermione Granger is better than her male friends and is considered the brightest pupil in her grade. Isn’t it often the same in schools of our real world?

“It’s surprising but true that most of the top students have been girls since primary school. Girls are class leaders, club presidents and the top ones in exams,” said Wang Feixuan, 15, who studies at a Chengdu school. By any measure, Wang herself is a high-achiever. She is a top student, a team leader in her school’s sports club and a winner in national English and IT competitions.

But why do so many girls outperform their male peers?

In Sun Yunxiao’s latest book Save Our Boys, he points out that the education system is “more suited to girls, who are good at memorizing and like to sit quietly and read.” Yet he also says that girls have to do so much more when they compete with males for honors, top universities and later good jobs. They can feel great pressure nearly every day.

This seems to be the same in most countries in the world. Young women in the United States are also reported to feel the same pressure to be perfect.

“Let’s look at what we ask of our teenage girls,” says Professor Stephen Hinshaw in an interview. He thinks that it’s no longer enough that a girl does well in school and is a caring friend. On the TV, on the Internet and everywhere, girls see images of impossible perfection.

Today’s young women must be good learners, good athletes, and fill their after-school lives with other activities. But they are also asked to have the styles and looks of popular stars. “Be pretty, sweet and nice. Be athletic, competitive and get straight. Be impossibly perfect.” Stephen Hinshaw sums up.

1.The passage suggests that              .

A.our society asks far too much of teenage girls

B.teenage girls shouldn’t be so perfect at school

C.boys are always lazy ones rather than girls

D.American girls have less pressure than Chinese girls

2. According to the passage, it is true that              .

A.boys are less smart than girls throughout school life

B.boys usually don’t have so much pressure as girls do

C.girls are all fond of the Chinese education system

D.girls are better at school because boys don’t work hard

3.The underlined word “outperform” means              .

A.hate

B.misunderstand

C.like

D.defeat

4.What is the best title for the passage?

A.Impossibly Perfect Is Possible.

B.Why Are Girls So Perfect?

C.Perfect? Pressure Every Day!

D.Perfect: Boys or Girls?
