    【题目】A British shopper, Emma Mumford, who was named “the Coupon(优惠券) Queen” has spent just ￡350 on a luxury Christmas for her and her family-but got ￡2,500 worth of food, drink and presents thanks to coupons and offers.

    Ms Mumford is a so-called “extreme couponer” and spends hours hunting out the best deals and bargains. She has been preparing for this Christmas since the end of the last one. Ms Mumford made the huge savings by checking price comparison websites and as a result collected more presents than she needed for Christmas. After sorting out gifts for all of her family, she has even been able to donate ￡1,000 worth of presents to her local hospital.

    “It has been so nice to have Christmas sorted and not having to worry about breaking the bank. I wanted to get high quality presents for my family and show that you can do it without spending a fortune. There is a misconception that everyone who does couponing only gets value products but through my careful shopping I have managed to purchase designer perfumes, a high-end coffee machine.” she explained.

    She said “What started as a hobby to help me save money has turned into my life and I am able to run a business helping people save money. I know what it feels like to struggle as my ex-partner had a lot of debt which I took on for him. We were in a poor situation where every penny counted. That’s what really inspired me.”

    She has now turned her bargain-hunting addiction into a business where she searches for the best deals and offer tips to the general public through video blogging and her Facebook Page.

    “I try and show people that it is just a little bit of work in the beginning but it will eventually pay off. One of the best things to do is just to be a bit forward thinking and save throughout the year.”

    【1】How did Emma make the huge savings ?

    A. She compared prices through websites.

    B. She hunted out bargains in real shops.

    C. She used coupons and offers worth ￡2,500.

    D. She collected more Christmas presents than needed.

    【2】What does “breaking the bank” in the third paragraph mean____?

    A. Buying presents of low quality.

    B. Spending more money than you have.

    C. Breaking into the bank.

    D. Taking out money from the bank.

    【3】What really inspired Emma to help people save money?

    A. Her addiction to bargain-hunting.

    B. The financial difficulties she shared with her ex-partner.

    C. The poor situation people around her were going through.

    D. Her experience of running an unsuccessful business.

    【4】Which of the following can best describe Emma?

    A. Ambitious and creative.

    B. Sensitive and determined.

    C. Brave and lucky.

    D. Careful and caring.

    You might dream of fluency in this or that language, and maybe you’ve already achieved fluency in a foreign language. ___【1】____.

    Fluency, like all abstract terms, has no universal meaning. Each individual must determine what the term means. ____【2】___.

    Perfect fluency means knowing every word you encounter, speaking quickly, clearly and easily and having no accent. ___【3】___. You aren’t familiar with every word of your native language, and sometimes you have to search for the right word, even in your mother tongue.

    Quick fluency is the type of fluency you see in advertisements, because “Master a Language in Two Months!” sounds way catchier than “Fluency in Twenty Years!” ___【4】__. It is possible to achieve quick fluency, but the fluency achieved after such a short time frame will be a very thin, superficial fluency.

    ___【5】____. Native-like fluency means that you generally know all the same words that a native knows and can speak at the same pace with the same amount of ease as a native speaker. You will likely have an accent, but as long as your conversation partner can understand you, it doesn’t matter.

    Literary fluency is like graduating from native-like to educated-native-like fluency. It focuses on the more intellectual（知识性的） side of a language: indulging in literature, attending university, composing song lyrics, etc.

    There are a ton of other things that fluency could potentially（可能地） be, but that’s up to you to figure out.

    A. It sounds too good to be true.

    B. However, Nobody is “perfectly fluent” in any language.

    C. Quick fluency is good if you have some sort of deadline.

    D. But have you ever considered what fluency really means?

    E. But does fluency have the same meaning to other person as it does to you?

    F. Unlike perfect fluency, native-like fluency is a reasonable and attainable goal.

    G. To assist you in determining what fluency is, I’ll describe a few different types of fluency.

    【题目】Are you trying to learn a new language in a foreign land? You might be better off if you stopped looking at that picture of your family and friends.

    New research from Columbia University found that prompting (提示) someone who is learning a new language with images and reminders of their own culture could temporarily ruin everything that the brain was trying to build.

    When native Chinese students were asked to talk with a Caucasian avatar (白种人的虚拟头像) and a Chinese avatar, their English skills were so different. Simply exposing students to a Chinese person affected their ability to speak English. Subjects who talked with the Chinese version felt more comfortable in their speech, but they produced 11% fewer words per minute. They actually became less fluent speakers.

    To make sure it wasn’t just the avatar, researchers also showed people random images of China while the participants told a story. When pictures of their homeland appeared, fluency dropped 16% and volunteers were 85% more likely to use a literal (照字面的) translation, for example, calling pistachios “happy nuts”, because that’s literally what the Chinese word for pistachio means.

    When the students were shown pictures of fish with one swimming ahead of the others, their culture would change how they look at the photo. With Chinese prompt, like photos of the Great Wall or Chinese Dragon, etc. they saw more students thinking that the fish was being chased, while an American prompt, like pictures of Marilyn Monroe or Superman, saw those students believing that it was a leader fish.

    The bottom line is: when attempting to learn a new culture it is far better to surround yourself with that culture than create an island of the old one.

    【1】Why does the author use a question in the first paragraph?

    A. To raise a question.

    B. To arouse readers’ awareness.

    C. To introduce the topic.

    D. To tell a story.

    【2】The underlined word “pistachios” in the fourth paragraph refers to ______.

    A. pictures B. volunteers

    C. an image D. a kind of food

    【3】From the passage we can infer that ______.

    A. different images would change with different people

    B. different cultures would affect how students look at the photo

    C. with Chinese prompts, more students thought that it was a leader fish

    D. with an American prompt, more students thought that the fish was being chased

    【4】According to the research, which is a better way for a student in a foreign land to learn a new culture?

    A. To surround himself with that culture.

    B. To create an island of the old one.

    C. To see random images of China.

    D. To talk with a Caucasian avatar.
