Each of them is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A),B),C),and D). You should decide on the best choice andmark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions 21-25 are based on the following passage.By far the most common snake in Britain is the adder (奎蛇). In Scotland, in fact, there are no other snakes at all.The adder is also the only British snake with a poisonous bite. It can be found almost anywhere, but prefers sunny hillsides and rough open country, including high ground. In Ireland there are no snakes at all.Most people regard snake bites as a fatal (致命的) misfortune, but not all bites are serious, and very few are fatal. Sometimes attempts at emergency treatment turn out to be more dangerous than the bite itself, with amateurs (外行人) heroically, but mistakenly, trying do-it-yourself surgery (手术) and other unnecessary measures.All snakes have small teeth, so that all snakes can bite, but only the bite of the adder presents any danger. British snakes are shy animals and far more frightened of you than you could possibly be of them. The adder will attack only if it feels threatened, as can happen if you take it by surprise and step on it accidentally, or if you try to catch it or pick it up, which it dislikes intensely. If it hears you coming, it will normally get out of the wa6y as quickly as it can, but adders cannot move very rapidly and may attack before moving if you are very close.The effect of a bite varies considerably. It depends upon several things, one of which is the body-weight of the person bitten. The bigger the person, the less harmful the bite is likely to be, which is why children suffer far more seriously from snake bites than adults. A healthy person will also have better resistance against the poison.Very few people actually die from snake bites in Britain, and though these bites can make some people very ill, there are probably just as many cases of bites having little or no effect, as there are of serious illness.21. Adders are most likely to be found _______.A) in wider parts of Britain and IrelandB) in Scotland but nowhere elseC) on wild land through BritainD) in the countryside in England22. If you are with someone who is bitten by an adder, you should ______.A) try to catch the snakeB) not treat the bite yourselfC) not worry too much about the victimD) operate him as soon as possible23. We are told that adders _______.A) normally friendly towards peopleB) unlikely to bite except in self-defenseC) likely to attack people whenever they see themD) not afraid of human beings24. If an adder hears you approaching, it will usually ______.A) move out of your pathB) take no notice of you at allC) disappear very quicklyD) wait until you are close and then attack25. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A) Adders are more likely to attack children than adults.B) The adder prefers to bite a person with a heavy body.C)The danger of adder bites is different from person to person.D)In most cases adder bites are more serious than other illnesses.Questions 26-30 are based on the following passages.Only the government can ensure that the American people have clean air and pure water. Congress must pass laws to stop manufacturers from polluting the air and water with the waste from their factories.Unless anti-pollution standards are enforced for all, companies that care about a clean environment will go out of business. For example, if Automobile Company X spends money to put an air-pollution control device on theirautomobiles, their cars will be more expensive than the cars produced by another company. People who don’t have the extra money or who don’t care about pollution will not buy the more expensive cars. Automobile Company X will go bankrupt (破产); that is, it won’t make enough money to pay its workers and to buy materials. It will then go out of business. Of course, no automobile company will make itself go bankrupt on purpose, and the pollution of the land and air and water will go on.But if the government says that all automobile manufacturers must make cars with air-pollution control devices, the cost of all manufacturers will be equal. So the government cannot let companies decide whether or not they want to stop pollution. The government must force manufacturers to clean up the environment by setting anti-pollution standards for everyone.26. If a company cares about a clean environment while others don’t, it will have to _______.A) change the anti-pollution standards for its productsB) sell its products at a more expensive priceC) buy materials at a higher priceD) pay more money to its workers27. The writer gives the example of Automobile Company X to show that _______.A) manufacturers will not take care of pollution control on their own willB) few manufacturers are aware of the importance of air-pollution controlC) air-pollution control devices are more expensive than other devicesD) people like to buy cars that are equipped with pollution control devices28. According to the writer, anti-pollution standards ensure that ______.A) no manufacturer will go bankrupt for spending money on pollution controlB) less money will be spent in buying pollution control devicesC) manufacturers know how to control pollution more effectivelyD)all manufacturers have to take measures to control pollution29. The purpose of this passage is _______.A) to describe how a company can go bankruptB) to emphasize the urgent need of cleaning up the environmentC) to stress the importance of the government’s role In preventing pollutionD) to tell how difficult it is to keep the environment free from air-pollution30. What can be inferred from thin passage?A) Companies have not been given an equal chance to develop their business.B) A company will go bankrupt if its cars have to be installed with pollution control devices.C) The US government has not set up standards on pollution control for car producers.D) It is necessary to persuade producers to take effective pollution control measure.Questions 31-35 are based on the following passages.Large-scale production in a large market brings advantages: mass production helps to reduce the manufacturing costs of consumer goods and the single market also makes it easier to specialize. Together, these two considerations improve businesses’ chance of making profit.Within the single market, the Community (欧共体) is making clearly strict European industrial standards which help European industry compete with imported products and conquer new markets, as well as making high-quality products available to the consumer.The European commission’s competition policy serves to ensure that the common interest prevails over individual business interests. At the same time, it is flexible enough to allow co-operation between small firms.Business are being encouraged to operate outside the country in which they are based by measures designed to ensure that they are no longer taxed twice for doing so. The days when taxes are an obstacle to Europe-wide businessoperation will soon be gone.In addition to creating a favorable business environment, the community’s industrial policy is also concerned with developing specific strategies. The objective is to carry out long-term plans to develop industries such as the electronics industry, information technology, biotechnology (生物技术) and textiles. These measures, at national and community level, will influence the quality of products, the technology used to manufacture them, the training the workforce receives, and the development of new outlets. In short, a whole range of instruments will be created to protect the future of European technology.These projects will require extra funding at Community level for training, research and development and communications networks. The extra Community funding will be used as rationally as possible in a way which maximizes the benefit to European industry.31. The European Community has found ______.A) a single market to carry out mass productionB) the Community market to produce high quality goodsC) a large market to increase business with other countriesD) a new market to make it easier to get profits32. We can infer from the passage that the community’s general policy ______.A) helps the small firms to do business flexiblyB) encourages big firms to conquer the small onesC) emphasizes the interest of the Community as a wholeD) brings the customer more imported goods33. One of the main changes in the market in Europe is that _______.A) there are more home produced goods that imported goods on the marketB) companies only have to pay one tax when operating in a member countryC) there are no more Europe-wide business operationsD) small companies are allowed to combine into larger ones34.

But the first supermarket was opened only fifty years ago. It was opened in New York by a man named Michael Cullen. A Supermarket is different from other types of stores in several ways Most customers who go to a supermarket buy from a hopping list. They know exactly what they need to buy. They shop according to a plan. By the time they reach the check-out counter, the customers are feeling pleased and relaxed because the task of shopping is finished. In this happy mood, the customers see an attractive display of inexpensive goods that were not on their shopping Lists. Now they feel like buying something just for their own pleasure and enjoyment. Many customers buy from these displays of products near the check-out counter, and this is exactly what the owner of the supermarket hopes they will do. In supermarkets,goods are placed on open shelves. The customers choose what they want and take them to the check-out counter(付款台).This means that fewer employees are required than in other stores. The way products are displayed(陈列) is another difference between supermarkets and many other types of stores. For example, in supermarkets, there is usually a display of small inexpensive items just in trout of the check-out counter: candies, chocolates, magazines, cheap books and so on. Why are they there? Another important fact in helping a customer choose what to buy is where a product is placed on a shelf.A product that is placed at eye level on a shelf sells much better than one which is placed on a lower or higher shelf. A product which is easy to see sells best. Manufactures pay a higher price to have their products placed at eye level on the shelves. The comfort and convenience of shopping centers is another factor which makes them popular with customers. Large parking spaces are provided, and many supermarkets stay open until very late at night.31.According to the passage, which statement is NOT true?a. The first supermarket was opened only half a century ago.b. A supermarket is different from other kinds of stores in two ways.c. The first supermarket was opened in New York.d. Today supermarkets are found almost every big city.32.A product that is placed______ sells best.a. as high as one's eyesb. as high as one's waistc. on a lower shelfd. on a higher shelf33.According to the passage, which statement is true?a. Supermarkets need more clerks than other stores.b. In supermarkets goods are placed on closed shelves.c. The customers prefer supermarkets to other kinds of stores.d. The customers pay any clerk they meet for what they have bought in supermarkets.34.Why do you think shopping centers attract more customers than other kinds of stores?a. They have large parking lots and they stay open until almost midnight.b. They have more kinds of goods.c. They have few employees.d. They display small inexpensive items in front of check-out counters.35.According to the way small inexpensive items ate displayed, we can infer that the owner of a supermarket has a good knowledge of_____a. physiologyb. bi ologyc. psychologyd. bi ophysicsPassage 3How men first learned to invent words is unknown, in other words, he origin of language is a mystery All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other,and the later they agreed upon certain signs called letters, which would be combine represent those sounds and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.The power of words, then lies in their associations---the things they ring up before our minds.Words become filled with meaning for us by experience;and the longer we live,the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past;and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also a press these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions This charming use of words is what we call literary style.Above all the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men I tears. We should, therefore,learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.36.The origin of language is_____a. a legend handed down from the pastb. a question difficult to answerc. a problem not yet solvedd. a matter that is hidden or secret37.One of the reasons why men invented certain words to express thought and actions was that______a. they could communicate with each otherb. they could agree on certain singsc. they could combine themd. they could write them down38.The real power of words exists in their_____a. propertiesb. peculiarityc. characteristicsd. representative function39.In expressing their thoughts, great writers are able______a.to confound the readersb.to move men to tearc.to move us to actiond.to confuse our feelings40.Which of the following statements about the real poet is NOT true?a.His style is always charming.b.His poems can move men to tears.c.He is no more than a master of words.d.He can convey his is ear in words which sing like music.At 1:30 this morning, the local police finally caught the jewel thief whom they had been trying to trap(诱捕)for the past two months.41 the man they arrested, James smith,42 that he was the thief, he was 43 with several diamond rings in his The police saw Smith 44.45 a jewelry store on Main Street at 1:16 AM..46 seeing the police ,Smith jumped 47 his auto ,and a high-speed chase followed for the next fourteen minutes.The police finally 48 smith off the road ,and his 49 when the police searched smith's hit a tree .50 ,they found the diamond rings 51 in an. inside pocket of his jacket .Although Smith claimed that the diamonds were fake(假的),the owner of the jewelry store 52 the most 53 robbery incident happened 54 them 55 Smith is now awaiting his first visit to court in a cell in the town jail.

One of them was from my school days, when our ninth grade teacher, Miss Raber, would pick out words from the Reader's Digest to test our vocabulary.Today, more than 45 years later, I always check out "It pays to Enrich Your Word Power" first when the Digest comes each month. I am impressed with that idea, word power. Reader's Digest knows the power that words have to move people – to entertain, inform,' and inspire. The Digest editors know that the big word isn't always the best word. Take just one example, a Quotable Quote form the February 1985 issue: "Time is a playful thing. It slips quickly and drinks the day like a bowl of milk."Nineteen words, only two of them more than one syllable, yet how much they convey! That's usually how it is with Reader's Digest. Small and simple can be profound.As chairman of a foundation to restore the Statue of Liberty, I've been making a lot of speeches lately. I try to keep them fairly short. I use small but vivid words: words like "hope", "guts", "faith", "dreams". Those are words that move people and say so much about the spirit of America. Don't get me wrong. I'm not against using big words, when it is right to do so, but I have also learned that a small word can work a small miracle-if it's the right word, in the right place, at the right "secret" time. It's a “secret” that I hope I never forget.16. The passage is mainly aboutA. one of the many old memoriesB. using simple words to express profound ideasC. Reader's Digest and school speechesD. how to make effective speeches17.It seems that Reader's Digest is a magazine popular' withA. people of all agesB. teenagersC. school teachersD. elderly readers18. The example the author gives in the second paragraph might meanA. one spends his day playing and drinkingB. don't waste your time as one doesC. time slips easily if you don't make good use of itD. time is just like drinking milk from a bowl19. The author's "secret" isA. to avoid using big words at any timeB. to use words that have the power to move peopleC. to work a miracle by using a small wordD. to use small and simple words where possible20.

Every evening except at weekends, he would see a factory worker coming up the hill towards the frontier,51a bicycle with a big load of old straw on it. When the bicycle 52the frontier, Henry used to stop the man and 53 him take the straw offand untie it.

He never found 56 ,even though he examined it very carefully.

For example ,they want the city to draw bicycle lanes on some of the main streets, because when bike riders must use the same lanes as cars ,there are accidents.Bike for a Better City feels that if there werespecial lanes more people would use bikes.But no bicycle lanes have been drawn. Not everyone thinks it is a good idea--they say it will slow traffic.Some store owners on the main streets say that if there is less traffic,they will have less business.And most people live too far from downtown to travel by bike.The city government has not yet decided what to do. it wants to keep everyone happy. Only on weekends,Central Park is closed to cars, and the roads may be used by bicycles only.But Bike for a Better City says that is not enough and keeps fighting to get bicycle lanes downtown.61.According to the passage, bicycles______A. are more convenient than carsB. are safer traffic tools than carsC. are ridden by most people in U.SD. are the solution to some city problems62.The idea of special bicycle lanes is most favoured by _______.A. the city governmentB. some bike ridersC. people living far from downtownD. some store owners63.“Bicycle lanes ”probably means ________.A. narrow passages between buildings for bicyclesB. roads full of bicyclesC. special parts of the road for bicycle riders onlyD. roads for bicycles only64.Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A. Bike for a Better City members ride bicycles to work.B. Sometimes accidents may occur when cars and bikes are on the same lanesC. The Central Park is situated in the downtown section of New YorkD. In some cities many people use bikes as they have special lanes65.The best title for this passage is_______A. Traffic Crowding in New York CityB. Air Pollution in New York City by CarsC. Special Lanes for PassengersD. A Solution to Traffic Problems in New YorkPassage TwoTo us it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains.But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against rain.Its first use was as a shade against the sun!Nobody knows who first invented it,but the umbrella was used in very ancient times.Probably the first to use it were the Chinese,as early as the eleventh century B.C We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade.And there was a strange thing connected with its use:it became a symbol of honour and authority.In the Far East in ancient times the umbrella was allowed to be used only by royalty or by those in high office.In Europe,the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was in cmmon use in ancient Greece.But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans.During the Middle Ages,the use of the umbrella practically disappeared.Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it was considered a symbol of power and authority.By 1680,the umbrella appeared in France,and later on in England.By the eighteenth century,the umbrella was used against rain throughout most of Europe.Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time,though they have become much lighter in weight.It wasn't until the twentieth century that women'sumbrellas began to be made ,in a whole variety of colours.66.According to this passage ,the umbrella was probably first invented______A.in ancient ChinaB.in ancient EgyptC.in ancient GreeceD.in ancient Rome67.Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE about the umbrella?A.No one exactly knows who was the inventor of the umbrellaB.The umbrella was first invented to be used as protection against the sunC.The umbrella changed much in style in the eighteenth centuryD.In Europe the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella68.A strange feature of the umbrella's use is that it was used as______A.protection against rainB.a shade against the sunC.a symbol of honour and powerD.a way of women's decoration69.In Europe, the umbrella was first used against the rain________A.in ChinaB.in ancient EgyptC.in RomeD.in Greece70.This passage talks mainly about______A.when and how the umbrella was inventedB.why the umbrella was so popular in EuropeC.the development of the umbrellaD.the history and use of the umbrellaPassage ThreeIf you are like most people,your intelligence varies from season to season.You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of the year.A famous scientist concluded that climate and temperature have a definite effcet on our mental abilities,and that cool weather is much more favourable for creative thinking than in summer heat.This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year.It does mean,however,that the mental abilities of large members of people tend to be lowest in the summer.Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking.One reason may be that in the spring man's mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature.Autumn is the next best season ,then winter .As for summer,it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking.71.Generally speaking,it is far fitter for creative thinking when the weather is ______A.sunny and fineB.windy and rainyC.warm and wetD.neither cold nor hot72.According to the passage, your intelligence probably_______A.varies from month to monthB.remains the same all the year roundC.varies with the seasonsD.changes without stopping73.A scientist arrived at the conclusion that climate and temperature have______A.nothing to do with man's mental abilitiesB.some effect on the intelligence of most peopleC.a great effect on everyone's intelligenceD.no effect on women's intelligence74.One possible reason why spring is the best season for thinking is that_____A.all nature has come back to life and becomes activeB.it is followed by summerC.all kinds of flowers are in full bloomD.it is warm and pleasant75.Summer seems to be a good period of the year for______A.travellingB.holidaysC.reading or writingD.thinking during the vacationPassage FourHow can a single stamp be worth $16,800?Any mistake made in the printing of a stamp raises its value to stamp collcetors.A mistake on one inexpensive postage stamp has made the stamp worth a million and a half times its original value.The mistake was made more than a hundred years ago in the British colony (殖民地)of Mauritius,a small island in the Indian Ocean. In 1847 an order for stamps was sent to a London printer-Mauritius was to become the fourth country in the world to issue stamps.Before the order was filled and delivered,a ball was planned at Mauritius' Government House, and stamps were needed to send out the invitations. A local printer was instructed to copy the design for the stamps .He accidentally marked the words“Post Office”instead of “Post Paid ”on the several hundred stamps that he printed.Today there are only twenty-six of these misprinted stamps left--fourteen One-Penny Orange-Reds and twelve Two-Penny Blues. Because of the Two-Penny Blue's rareness and age, collectors have paid as much as $16,800 for it.76.Mauritius is the name of ______A.an island kingdomB.a British colonyC.a province of IndiaD.a London printer77.In 1847 most countries of the world were_______.A.not yet using postage stampsB.collecting valuable stampsC.buying stamps from MauritiusD.printing their own stamps78.The mistake on the locally printed stamps was in the_______.A.spellingB.wordingC.priceD.colour79.$16,800 is the collector's value of_______.A.the One-Penny Orange-RedB.a correctly printed 1847 stampC.the Two-Penny BlueD.both A and C80. What is implied in the passage?A.All correctly printed stamps are worthless.B.Mauritians needed the stamps to send out invitations to a ballC.The printer was punished for his mistakeD.Collectors are constantly looking for stamps with mistakes.Ⅴ.Translation (20 points)Directions:There are five sentences in Chinese in this part.Put them into English.81.你最好马上去看医生。

But thefirst supermarket was opened only fifty years ago. It was opened in New York by aman named Michael Cullen. A Supermarket is different from other types of stores inseveral ways. In supermarkets, goods are placed on open shelves. The customers choosewhat they want and take them to the check-out counter(付款台).This means that fewer employees are required than in other stores. The way products are displayed(陈列)is another difference between supermarkets and many other types of stores. For example,in supermarkets, there is usually a display of small inexpensive items just in troutof the check-out counter: candies, chocolates, magazines, cheap books and so on. Whyare they there?Most customers who go to a supermarket buy from a hopping list. They know exactlywhat they need to buy. They shop according to a plan. By the time they reach the check-out counter, the customers are feeling pleased and relaxed because the taskof shopping is finished. In this happy mood, the customers see an attractive displayof inexpensive goods that were not on their shopping Lists. Now they feel like buyingsomething just for their own pleasure and enjoyment. Many customers buy from thesedisplays of products near the check-out counter, and this is exactly what the ownerof the supermarket hopes they will do.Another important fact in helping a customer choose what to buy is where a productis placed on a shelf. A product that is placed at eye level on a shelf sells muchbetter than one which is placed on a lower or higher shelf. A product which is easyto see sells best. Manufactures pay a higher price to have their products placed ateye level on the shelves. The comfort and convenience of shopping centers is anotherfactor which makes them popular with customers. Large parking spaces are provided,and many supermarkets stay open until very late at night.31.According to the passage, which statement is NOT true?a. The first supermarket was opened only half a century ago.b. A supermarket is different from other kinds of stores in two ways.c. The first supermarket was opened in New York.d. Today supermarkets are found almost every big city.32.A product that is placed______ sells best.a. as high as one's eyesb. as high as one's waistc. on a lower shelfd. on a higher shelf33.According to the passage, which statement is true?a. Supermarkets need more clerks than other stores.b. In supermarkets goods are placed on closed shelves.c. The customers prefer supermarkets to other kinds of stores.d. The customers pay any clerk they meet for what they have bought in supermarkets.34.Why do you think shopping centers attract more customers than other kinds of stores?a. They have large parking lots and they stay open until almost midnight.b. They have more kinds of goods.c. They have few employees.d. They display small inexpensive items in front of check-out counters.35.According to the way small inexpensive items ate displayed, we can infer that the owner of a supermarket has a good knowledge of_____a. physiologyb. biologyc. psychologyd. biophysicsPassage 3How men first learned to invent words is unknown, in other words, he origin of language is a mystery All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow inventedcertain sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that theycould communicate with each other, and the later they agreed upon certain signs calledletters, which would be combine represent those sounds and which could be writtendown. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.The power of words, then lies in their associations---the things they ring upbefore our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience;and the longerwe live,the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past;and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also a press these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions This charming use of words is what we call literary style.Above all the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men I tears. We should, therefore, learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.36.The origin of language is_____a. a legend handed down from the pastb. a question difficult to answerc. a problem not yet solvedd. a matter that is hidden or secret37.One of the reasons why men invented certain words to express thought and actionswas that______a. they could communicate with each otherb. they could agree on certain singsc. they could combine themd. they could write them down38.The real power of words exists in their_____a. propertiesb. peculiarityc. characteristicsd. representative function39.In expressing their thoughts, great writers are able______a.to confound the readersb.to move men to tearc.to move us to actiond.to confuse our feelings40.Which of the following statements about the real poet is NOT true?a.His style is always charming.b.His poems can move men to tears.c.He is no more than a master of words.d.He can convey his is ear in words which sing like music.Part III.Cloze(10%)Directions:There are 20 blanks in this part.

Writing the story for the film may take many weeks. Filming the story being acted or shooting the film, as it is called, often takes at least six months. Actors and cameramen work from very early in the morning until late at night. Each scene has to be acted and reacted, filmed and re-filmed, until it is just right. Sometimes the same scene may have to be acted twenty or thirty times. The film studio is like a large factory, and the indoor stages are very big indeed. Scenery of all kinds is made in the studio: churches, houses, castles, and forests are all built of wood and by actors and actresses. The director of the film, however, is the most important person In a film studio, he decides now the scene should be filmed and how the scene should be arranged. Most people go to see a film because they know the film stars in it. Sometimes the film may be very poor. It is best to choose a film made by a good director.

学英语简单吗?肯定会有许多学生说:“难死了”。
为什么有好多学生对英语的学习都感到头疼呢?答案只有一个:“不得法。
” 英语与汉语一样都是一种语言,为什么你说汉语会如此流利?那是因为你置身于一个汉语环境中,如果你在伦敦呆上半年,保准说起英语来会非常流利。
但很多中学生没有很好的英语环境,那么你可以自己设置一个英语环境,坚持“多说”、“多听”、“多读”、“多写”,那么你的英语成绩肯定会很出色。
一、多“说”。
自己多创造机会与英语教师多讲英语,见了同学,尤其是和好朋友在一起时尽量用英语去问候,谈心情……这时候你需随身携带一个英汉互译小词典,遇到生词时查一下这些生词,也不用刻意去记,用的多了,这个单词自然而然就会记住。
千万别把学英语当成负担,始终把它当成一件有趣的事情去做。
或许你有机会碰上外国人,你应大胆地上去跟他打招呼,和他谈天气、谈风景、谈学校……只是别问及他的年纪,婚史等私人问题。
尽量用一些你学过的词汇,句子去和他谈天说地。
不久你会发现与老外聊天要比你与中国人谈英语容易的多。
因为他和你交谈时会用许多简单词汇,而且不太看重说法,你只要发音准确,准能顺利地交流下去。
只是你必须要有信心,敢于表达自己的思想。
如果没有合适的伙伴也没关系,你可以拿过一本书或其它什么东西做假想对象,对它谈你一天的所见所闻,谈你的快乐,你的悲伤等等,长此坚持下去你的口语肯定会有较大的提高。
二、多“听”寻找一切可以听英语的机会。
别人用英语交谈时,你应该大胆地去参与,多听听各种各样人的发音,男女老少,节奏快的慢的你都应该接触到,如果这样的机会少的话,你可以选择你不知内容的文章去听,这将会对你帮助很大,而你去听学过的课文的磁带,那将会对你的语言语调的学习有很大的帮助。
三、多“读”。
“读”可以分为两种。
一种是“默读”。
每天给予一定时间的练习将会对你提高阅读速度有很大的好处,读的内容可以是你的课本,但最好是一些有趣的小读物,因为现在的英语高考越来越重视阅读量和阅读速度。
每道题的得分都与你的理解程度有很大关系,所以经过高中三年阅读的训练后,你必定会在高考中胜券在握。
另一种是“朗读”这是学语言必不可少的一种学习途径。
四、多“写”有的同学总是抱怨时间紧,根本没时间写作文。
其实“写”的形式很多,不一定就写作文才提高写作能力。
比如写下你一天中发生的一些重要的事情,或当天学了某一个词组,你可以创设一个语境恰如其份地用上这个词。
这样即可帮你记住这个词的用法,又可以锻炼你的写作能力,比如学“wish”一词时,可写一小段如下:The teacher often asks us what we want to be in the future.My good friend Tom wishes to be a soldier.However,I'm different .I wish I were a teacher in the future.But my mother wishes me to be a doctor.只几句话:但wish的几种用法已跃然纸上,这样写下来印象会深刻得多,这样比死记硬背wish 的用法也有趣轻松的多。
学习英语不用花大块的时间,10分钟的散步可以练"说",吃完饭后可以读一会儿英语小说,睡前听几分钟英语,可以使你得到更好地休息……只要你每天抽出一些时间来练英语,你的英语成绩肯定会很快提高的。
背英语单词技巧1、循环记忆法艾宾浩斯遗忘曲线人的大脑是一个记忆的宝库,人脑经历过的事物,思考过的问题,体验过的情感和情绪,练习过的动作,都可以成为人们记忆的内容。
例如英文的学习中单词、短语和句子,甚至文章的内容都是通过记忆完成的。
从"记"到"忆"是有个过程的,这其中包括了识记、保持、再认和回忆。
有很多人在学习英语的过程中,只注重了学习当时的记忆效果,孰不知,要想做好学习的记忆工作,是要下一番工夫的,单纯的注重当时的记忆效果,而忽视了后期的保持和再认同样是达不到良好的效果的。
在信息的处理上,记忆是对输入信息的编码、贮存和提取的过程,从信息处理的角度上,英文的第一次学习和背诵只是一个输入编码的过程。
人的记忆的能力从生理上讲是十分惊人的,它可以存贮1015比特(byte,字节)的信息,可是每个人的记忆宝库被挖掘的只占10%,还有更多的记忆发挥空间。
这是因为,有些人只关注了记忆的当时效果,却忽视了记忆中的更大的问题--即记忆的牢固度问题,那就牵涉到心理学中常说的关于记忆遗忘的规律。
一、艾宾浩斯记忆规律曲线解释德国有一位著名的心理学家名叫艾宾浩斯(Hermann Ebbinghaus,1850-1909),他在1885年发表了他的实验报告后,记忆研究就成了心理学中被研究最多的领域之一,而艾宾浩斯正是发现记忆遗忘规律的第一人。
根据我们所知道的,记忆的保持在时间上是不同的,有短时的记忆和长时的记忆两种。
而我们平时的记忆的过程是这样的:输入的信息在经过人的注意过程的学习后,便成为了人的短时的记忆,但是如果不经过及时的复习,这些记住过的东西就会遗忘,而经过了及时的复习,这些短时的记忆就会成为了人的一种长时的记忆,从而在大脑中保持着很长的时间。
那么,对于我们来讲,怎样才叫做遗忘呢,所谓遗忘就是我们对于曾经记忆过的东西不能再认起来,也不能回忆起来,或者是错误的再认和错误的回忆,这些都是遗忘。
艾宾浩斯在做这个实验的时候是拿自己作为测试对象的,他得出了一些关于记忆的结论。
他选用了一些根本没有意义的音节,也就是那些不能拼出单词来的众多字母的组合,比如asww,cfhhj,ijikmb,rfyjbc等等。
他经过对自己的测试,得到了一些数据。
然后,艾宾浩斯又根据了这些点描绘出了一条曲线,这就是非常有名的揭示遗忘规律的曲线:艾宾浩斯遗忘曲线,图中竖轴表示学习中记住的知识数量,横轴表示时间(天数),曲线表示记忆量变化的规律。
这条曲线告诉人们在学习中的遗忘是有规律的,遗忘的进程不是均衡的,不是固定的一天丢掉几个,转天又丢几个的,而是在记忆的最初阶段遗忘的速度很快,后来就逐渐减慢了,到了相当长的时候后,几乎就不再遗忘了,这就是遗忘的发展规律,即"先快后慢"的原则。
观察这条遗忘曲线,你会发现,学得的知识在一天后,如不抓紧复习,就只剩下原来的25%)。
随着时间的推移,遗忘的速度减慢,遗忘的数量也就减少。
有人做过一个实验,两组学生学习一段课文,甲组在学习后不久进行一次复习,乙组不予复习,一天后甲组保持98%,乙组保持56%;一周后甲组保持83%,乙组保持33%。
乙组的遗忘平均值比甲组高。
二、不同性质材料有不同的遗忘曲线而且,艾宾浩斯还在关于记忆的实验中发现,记住12个无意义音节,平均需要重复16.5次;为了记住36个无意义章节,需重复54次;而记忆六首诗中的480个音节,平均只需要重复8次!这个实验告诉我们,凡是理解了的知识,就能记得迅速、全面而牢固。
不然,愣是死记硬背,那也是费力不讨好的。
因此,比较容易记忆的是那些有意义的材料,而那些无意义的材料在记忆的时候比较费力气,在以后回忆起来的时候也很不轻松。
因此,艾宾浩斯遗忘曲线是关于遗忘的一种曲线,而且是对无意义的音节而言,对于与其他材料的对比,艾宾浩斯又得出了不同性质材料的不同遗忘曲线,不过他们大体上都是一致的。
因此,艾宾浩斯的实验向我们充分证实了一个道理,学习要勤于复习,而且记忆的理解效果越好,遗忘的也越慢。
三、不同的人有不同的艾宾浩斯记忆曲线--个性化的艾宾浩斯上述的艾宾浩斯记忆曲线是艾宾浩斯在实验室中经过了大量测试后,产生了不同的记忆数据,从而生成的一种曲线,是一个具有共性的群体规律。
此记忆曲线并不考虑接受试验个人的个性特点,而是寻求一种处于平衡点的记忆规律。
但是记忆规律可以具体到我们每个人,因为我们的生理特点、生活经历不同,可能导致我们有不同的记忆习惯、记忆方式、记忆特点。
规律对于自然人改造世界的行为,只能起一个催化的作用,如果与每个人的记忆特点相吻合,那么就如顺水扬帆,一日千里;如果与个人记忆特点相悖,记忆效果则会大打折扣。
因此,我们要根据每个人的不同特点,寻找到属于自己的艾宾浩斯记忆曲线2》如何学英语下定决心,坚持不懈英语学习作为一门语言技能,通过大量的训练和练习任何人是可以掌握的。
一般地说,英语学习的原则是听、说领先,读、写跟上。
李扬的疯狂英语提倡,首先建立起我能学好英语的信心,然后以句子为单位,大量地模仿,疯狂地操练,大声地朗读,最后达到自如地说英语,他的方法对提高说英语的能力很奏效。
钟道隆教授45岁开始学英语,一年后,学成出国当口语翻译,并创造了逆苦恼、逆急于求成、逆速成的逆向学习英语的方法。
他还提出学习英语要遵循听、写、说、背、想的方法,他的方法强调以听为主,并且把所听到的内容全部写下来。
尤其是他的学习精神最可佳,他学习英语用坏了十几台录音机,你可想象他听了多少英语;用完的圆珠笔芯几乎装满了一个一拉罐,你可想象他写了多少,在一年半内,累计业余学习英语时间大约三千小时,也就说每天抽出几个小时来学英语。
如果我们做到他那样,一定也能学好英语。
最重要的是坚持,只要能下定决心,坚持每天至少一个小时的学习英语,战胜自我最后肯定会有收获的。
注意方法,循序渐进决心下定,还注意学习方法,有时根据自己的情况和不同的学习目的,选择不同的学习方法,但是学习英语一定要踏踏实实地、一步一个脚印地走。
要把基础知识掌握好,也就是说,发音要正确、基本词汇要掌握牢、基本句式要熟练、基本语法要会用。
(1)要过好语音关。
把每一个音标发正确,注意改正有问题的音素,特别是那些容易混淆的音素,尽早地掌握国际音标,并尽量的掌握一些读音规则,尽快地能利用读音规则来拼单词,掌握读音规则对单词的记忆和拼写非常有用。
(2)掌握一定数量的英语单词。
对于学习者来说掌握英语词汇是一难关,学习单词要从单词的形、音、义这三方面去掌握,要注意单词的一词多义,一词多类的用法,要学会一些构词法的知识,来扩展词汇量。
学习单词要在语言材料中去学,要结合词组,通过句子,阅读文章来活记单词,死记的单词是记不牢的。
坚持在读、说前,先反复听,听的时候反应单词、句子的意思和节奏,想一下单词的拼法、句子结构。
并要同学习语法规则有机结合起来进行。
(3)掌握好基本语法。
语法在学习英语中也很重要,它能帮助我们把握住英语的基本规律,通过例句或语言现象把死的语法规则要记住,活的规则要通过做大量的练习掌握。
总之学习英语要通过听、说、读、写、译来进行操练,不但要注意数量,更重要的是要注意质量,尤其是基本知识要掌握的准确,熟练。
只有经过大量的实践,才能做到熟能生巧,运用自如。
提前预习,有的放矢作为学生,在每次上课前,都要对要学的课文提前预习。
