There is no doubt about it. The best way to learn new words is to do it unconsciously. I don’t mean while you’re unconscious. I mean while you are unconscious of the fact that it is sinking in.

    That is how I learnt the 30, 000 words in my vocabulary by living in an English-speaking world, mother tongue. I just pick them up. But some of them may be misunderstood. Now, to misunderstand does not mean not to understand. To misunderstand is to understand but incorrectly.

The 5% mislearnt of all the words we ″know″ will be the least frequently used words, as the more frequently used words are less likely to be mislearnt. Some of the misunderstandings may live with all our lives, without knowing that we got them wrong.

    Many English teachers think that this natural method of learning words in one’s own mother tongue can be used for a second language learning. They teach their students how to play the Guessing Game. ″There is no time to look up in your dictionaries all the new words you come across, “ they will say. ″You have to practise guessing what the word means from the context.”

    This method of guessing in a second language learning does not work. It may succeed in many cases, but results in hundreds or thousands of wrongly-guessed meanings of words.

    And what’s more, there are more separate meanings than there are words themselves. Our learners’ dictionaries usually have many meanings. A good dictionary is what makes self-learning possible.

    Don’t guess! Look it up!

64．The underlined word ″them″ in Paragraph 2 refers to _________.

    A．the 30, 000 words                B．English teachers

    C．misunderstood words             D．frequently used words

    B．Most of the 30, 000 words the writer learned are frequently used ones.

    C．How many words the writer got wrong are not known.

    D．All the words the writer knows were learned by reading them.

66．What we can infer from the passage is that        .

         A．dictionaries can not help us learn language well

         B．when he is conscious, he usually can’t write new words

         C．we must use the words as often as possible in order to master them

         D．the writer prefers to guess meanings of new words

67．According to the passage, it is concluded that the best way to learn new words is      .

         A．to learn them by copying new words

         B．to learn by living in an English---speaking world

         C．to guess them only from the context

         D．to get more separate meanings of each word

 

Dear son,

The day that you see me old and I am already not in good health, have patience and try to understand me.

If I get dirty when eating, if I can not dress, have patience and remember the hours I   36   teaching it to you. If, when I speak to you, I   37  the same things thousand and one times, do not   38   me, listen to me. When you were small, I had to read to you thousand and one times the same story   39   you got to sleep. When I do not want to have a   40  , neither shame me nor scold me. Remember when I had to chase you with thousand excuses I   41  , in order that you wanted to bathe. When you see my   42   little about new technologies, give me the necessary time and do not look at me with your mocking(嘲弄) smile. I taught you   43   to do so many things: to eat good, to dress well, to confront life…. When at some moment I lose the memory or the   44  of our conversation, let me have the necessary time to remember, and if I cannot do it, do not become nervous, as the most important thing is not our conversation but surely to be with you and to have you   45   to me.

If ever I do not want to eat, do not force me. I know well   46   I need to and when not. When my   47   legs do not allow me to walk, give me your   48  , the same way I did when you gave your first   49  . And when someday I say to you that I do not want to   50   any more ---- that I want to rest forever, do not get ___51__. Someday you will understand.

Try to understand that my age is not lived but survived. Some day you will discover that, despite my mistakes, I always wanted the   52   thing for you and that I tried to prepare the way for you. You must not feel sad, angry or impotent(无可奈何) for seeing me   53   you. You must be next to me, try to understand me and to help me as I did it when you   54   living. Help me to walk, help me to end my way with love and  55  . I will pay you by a smile and by the immense love I have had always for you.

I love you, Son

Dear Editor,

I’m writing to tell you about how we students use computers in our daily lives. Some use them in a good way when some others don’t. As far as I am concerned, more and more students now use computers help with their study. If we meet some difficulties when they are doing their homework, they always got help from the Internet. To spend their spare time, they look for more informations with the computers to have much more knowledge. At the same time, however, the great number of students are still so interested in PC games and chatted with others on the Internet that they can not force themselves to return to their study. They are really in dangerous. That is how we mainly use computers. They can either do good and harm to us.

Best wishes!

Yours truly,

Li Hua

 

 

第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

This August has seen athletes doing their sweaty part in the "Good Luck Beijing" sports events. Some foreign athletes have commented on the passion of Chinese spectators（观众）.

Not all the spectators, however, came out looking exactly good. Girls holding umbrellas on beach volleyball stands. Spectators crying sharply during the hockey matches. These can be unintended disturb. To avoid them, we'd keep in mind some special manners:

Beach volleyball

1. Dress down for beach volleyball. It's also a good time to show off your colorful top and sexy shorts.

2. Use protective cream for your skin. Wear sunglasses and bring something to drink. But don't carry something that blocks others' view.

3. Look all you want at the body shapes around you, but save some attention for the players' skills.

Archery & shooting

1. Sit at the back or on either side of the field. For safety's sake, do not risk out of there.

2. Above all, keep quiet during the match. Put your cellphone on vibrate or turn it off.

3. Do not use the flash on your camera, because it can disturb the athletes.

4. When the athletes are aiming at the target, keep your voice down.

Baseball, basketball & football

1. Drinks in glass bottles or cans are not allowed.

2. Don't bring a whistle. Referees use them and you can puzzle the players.

3. Players can be tense when taking a shot. Keep the cheering down at critical moments. Do not use the camera flash.

4. If you easily get nervous, bring some snacks. Keep your mouth moving to calm you down.

Cycling & marathon

1. Spectators should keep off the track. Control your pets.

2. Cyclists or runners might look tired, sweaty and thirsty, but, do not hand them a bottle of water, a cool towel or anything else. Any help from spectators can disqualify（剥夺资格）an athlete.

3. Again, if a cyclist or runner falls, do not rush over to help. The best thing to do is to contact medical personnel.

1. When watching beach volleyball matches, you should not __________.

A. bring anything to drink                  B. use an umbrella on stands

C. wear sunglasses                             D. look at the body shapes

2. You’d better not _________.

A. eat anything when watching matches    B. use camera flash when watching cycling

C. shout loudly when watching archery     D. stay where you sit when watching shooting

3. If you go to watch marathon, you can not ________.

A. bring your pets                                B. give athletes something to drink

C. cry sharply                                        D. ask medical personnel to help athletes

4. The passage mainly tells us ___________.

A. how spectators disturb athletes                            B. how spectators help athletes

C. dos and don’ts while watching matches     D. some rules for sports events
