          Have you ever noticed an advertisement which says "Learn a foreign language in six weeks, or your
    money back! From the first day your pronunciation will be excellent. Just send…" and so on? Of course,
    it never happens quite like that. The only language that is easy to learn is the mother tongue. And think
    how much practice that gets! Before the Second World War people usually learned a foreign language in
    order to read the literature (文学) of the country. Now speaking the foreign language is what most people
    want. Every year many millions of people start learning one. How do they do it? Some people try at home,
    with books and tapes; some use radio or television programmes; others go to evening classes. If they use
    the language only two or three times a week, learning it will take a long time, like language learning at school.
    A few people try to learn a language fast by studying for six or more hours a day. It is clearly easier to learn
    the language in the country where it is spoken. However, most people cannot afford this, and for many it is
    not necessary. They need the language in order to do their work better. For example, scientists and doctors
    mainly need to be able to read books and reports in the foreign language. Whether the language is learned
    quickly or slowly, it is hard work. Machines and good books will help, but they cannot do the students work
    for him.
    1. In the advertisement it is possible for a person to learn a foreign language ______.
    [     ]
    A. more than two month
    B. half a year
    C. six months
    D. less than two month
    2. Before the Second World War people learned a foreign language in order to ______.
    [     ]
    A. speak to each other
    B. listen to the radio
    C. read something they didn't know
    D. write the literature of the other country
    3. The easiest way for us to learn a foreign language is ______.
    [     ]
    A. using the language six or more hours a day
    B. learning the language at school
    C. studying the language in the foreign country
    D. reading the foreign stories as many as possible
    4. Most people now learn a foreign language to ______.
    [     ]
    A. read books and reports in a foreign language
    B. talk to foreign friends
    C. go to the other country to learn a language well
    D. try their best to work better
    5. The passage tells us that ______.
    [     ]
    A. the more you spend, the quicker you'll learn the language
    B. it is possible for you to learn a foreign language in six weeks
    C. it is not good for you to learn a foreign language by yourself
    D. the quicker you learn a foreign language, the more you must pay for it

    Is learning a foreign language ever easy? Yes. If you are five and move to another country, you will quickly pick up the language. But what about for the rest of us who are no longer five, and need to be polite when traveling for business or for pleasure? I think that answer is also yes. Language learning can be easy if you don’t want or need to learn too much.

    The key to successful language learning in my mind is not to set the goal too high. It is rather like running. Even if you run twice a week, you don’t necessarily want to be able to run a marathon (马拉松). You might just want to keep a level of fitness. I think the same can be true for language learning.

    Let’s get back to the goal. If you decide to learn ten words in a foreign language before visiting the country, you know that you will be sure to do this. However, if you decide to talk to people with great fluency (流利), unless you are quite a talented person, you will probably fail and give up in half-way.

    It is also far easier to start learning a foreign language than to finish. In other words, the better you are, the slower it can be to improve, because you will not be able to move further because of grammar, making sentences, learning less common words, etc. If you are only trying to learn a few foreign words and sentences, you will enjoy faster progress, have more fun, and won’t have to spend too much time.

    The idea of learning only a few hundred words in a language, and then stopping, isn’t the usual way to language learning, but it can be a very meaningful and enjoyable activity.

    1.In the writer’s opinion, it is easy for adults to learn English if _______.

    A．they are especially talented people

    B．they don’t want or need to learn too much

    C．they have to spend a lot of time on it

    D．they have a chance to go abroad

    2.The writer believes that if you want to be good at a foreign language, you will probably _______.

    A．forget your own goals

    B．become a talented language learner

    C．get tired of learning it

    D．reach your learning goal

    3.The best title of this passage would be _______.

    A．Easy Language Learning                   B．Hard Language Learning

    C．Fluency in a Foreign Language              D．A way of Language Learning

         Dr. Irene Pepperberg, a scientist at the University of Arizona, has worked with Alex for nineteen years,
    teaching Alex to speak and understand wasn't easy at first. He had to learn one word at a time. Irene and an
    assistant (助手) would teach Alex by showing him what a word meant. Irene would hold up an object, saying
    "What's this?" Her assistant would give the word-"candy", for example-while Alex watched. Irene would praise
    (表扬) her assistant, then ask Alex the name for the object. When he got it right, Irene would praise him and
    give him the object to play with as a reward. It took Alex many weeks to learn his first word. After that, each
    new word became easier and easier for him.
         Why did Irene spend so much time getting a parrot to talk? Scientists like Irene are interested in discovering
    how intelligent (聪明) animals are and how their brains work. But studying animal intelligence has been difficult,
    partly because animals haven't been able to communicate (交流) clearly with humans. Teaching Alex to speak
    words that he understands has let Irene talk to him directly. She can ask him questions, and he can answer them
    in English. In this way, Irene is finding out what kinds of things Alex's brain can do. She has found that parrots
    are much smarter than scientists used to think.
    1. According to the passage, how is Alex remarkable (不寻常的)? 
    A. He can use the English language to answer questions.
    B. He uses words in English instead of bird calls to call other birds.
    C. He can copy the pronunciations of more than 100 English words.
    D. Alex has a brain that is much bigger than those of other parrots.
    2. How did Dr. Pepperberg teach Alex to speak with understanding?
    A. She said the same word all day long so that Alex could repeat it.
    B. She taught Alex a special sign language.
    C. She gave Alex rewards if he would say what she said.
    D. She gave Alex a candy every time he answered correctly.
    3. Why did Dr. Pepperberg teach Alex to speak with understanding?
    A. She wanted to prove it could be done.
    B. She wanted to provide a model for people who want talking birds.
    C. She wanted to find out how many words parrots could remember.
    D. She wanted to find out what kinds of things his brain could do.
    4. According to the passage, Alex has proved that _____.
    A. birds are not the only animals that can learn a language.
    B. parrots are much cleverer than scientists used to think.
    C. birds are just as intelligent as humans.
    D. teaching parrots to speak a human language isn't very difficult.
