Well, how can you learn to swim? I think the best way is to go into the water and learn. I'm afraid you'll never learn to swim just by reading books about swimming or looking at others swimming. It's the same with the English study. We must practice, practice and practice.‎ Listening and speaking are very important for beginners. The children in English-speaking countries first listen to others. Then they try to imitate and speak. We can listen to English programs on radio. You may just understand a few words. It doesn't matter. Just be relaxed，and try to catch every word.‎ Somebody may be a good listener. But he dare not speak. He's afraid of making mistakes. You know we sometimes make mistakes when we speak Chinese. Don't be afraid. We must be brave. If you really want to learn English well, you must try to speak with everyone so long as he knows English.‎ Whether you know him or not is not important. When there's nobody to talk with，you can talk to yourself in English. It's interesting and also a good way to practice your spoken English. Remember, the more you speak, the fewer mistakes you'll make.‎ Reading and writing are more important for senior school students. First we must choose the books we're interested in. A lot of reading will improve your language sense. This is the most important.‎ Keep writing English diaries. We can also write English articles. You may even post them to English magazines. Don't be afraid of failure. Failure is the mother of success.‎ Easier said than done. Well, let's do more practice from now on. I'm sure you'll learn English well in this way.‎ ‎21 .We should learn English by ______.‎ A. listening and speaking B. reading and writing C. A and B D. swimming ‎22. What will you do with mistakes when you speak?‎ A. Don't make mistakes. B. Study hard.‎ C. Try not to speak English. D. Don't be afraid.‎ ‎23. We can listen to English _______, according to the passage.‎ A. by train B. on the radio C. every minute D. now and then B Ten years ago, I used to be very fit(健康的). I rode a bike to work and I got a lot of exercise at weekends. I used to play tennis a lot and go for long walks. In those days I didn't earn very much. I had a job in an office. It wasn't a very good job but I had a lot of time to do the things I enjoyed doing.‎ ‎ Then, about eight years ago, I got a much better job. The pay was better, but the hours were a lot longer. I bought a car and drove to work every day. I began to take people out to have lunch. And I began to put on weight, too. I stopped playing tennis and going for long walks at weekends because I just didn't have any time for things like that any more.‎ ‎ There's a lot of stress(压力) in my job. Perhaps that's why I started drinking more than I used to. For example, I used to have only half a glass of whisky when I got home, but then I started filling my glass to the top, and instead of having one glass, I would have several. I started smoking a lot, too. I never used to smoke at all.‎ ‎ Two months ago I had a heart attack. At first I just couldn't believe it. Luckily it wasn't very serious. The doctor advised me to stop smoking and to eat less. He also advised me to work less and get more exercise. But I just haven't any time! My job takes everything out of me!‎ ‎ Sometimes I wonder if I should get another job. Perhaps I could do something as I used to do. But if I do that, I won't earn as much. I have a family to support. I have to think of them, too. I just don't know what I should do. What do you think?‎ ‎24.Compared with ten years ago, what is worse for the author now?‎ A.His job. B.His pay. C.His means of transport. D.His health.‎ ‎25.According to the passage, when the author got the better job, which of the following is NOT true?‎ A.He got higher pay. B.His working hours weren't long.‎ C.He found it very stressful. D.He had little free time at weekends.‎ ‎26.After the author had a heart attack, the doctor advised him _______.‎ A.not to work any longer B.to take a long vacation abroad C.to stop smoking and take exercise D.not to eat out any more ‎27.What can we learn about the author?‎ A.The author is not sure what he should do now. B.The author has taken the doctor's advice.‎ C.The author has got another new job. D.The author feels much better now.‎ C As a young boy, I sometimes traveled the country roads with my dad. He was a rural mail carrier, and on Saturdays he would ask me to go with him. Driving through the countryside was always an adventure: There were animals to see, people to visit, and chocolate cookies if you knew where to stop, and Dad did.‎ In the spring, Dad delivered boxes full of baby chickens, and when I was a boy it was such  fun to stick your fingers through one of the holes of the boxes and let the baby birds peck on your fingers.‎ On Dad's final day of work, it took him well into the evening to complete his rounds because at least one member from each family was waiting at their mailbox to thank him for his friendship and his years of service. "Two hundred and nineteen mailboxes on my route," he used to say, "and a story at every one." One lady had no mailbox, so Dad took the mail in to her every day because she was nearly blind. Once inside, he read her mail and helped her pay her bills.‎ Mailboxes were sometimes used for things other than mail. One note left in a mailbox read, "Nat, take these eggs to Marian; she's baking a cake and doesn't have any eggs. " Mailboxes might be buried in the snow, or broken, or lying on the ground, but the mail was always delivered. On cold days Dad might find one of his customers waiting for him with a cup of hot chocolate. A young girl wrote letters but had no stamps, so she left a few buttons on the envelope in the mailbox; Dad paid ‎ for the stamps. One businessman used to leave large amounts of cash in his mailbox for Dad to take to the bank. Once, the amount came to $ 32,000.‎ A dozen years ago, when I traveled back to my hometown on the sad occasion of Dad’s death, the mailboxes along the way reminded me of some of his stories. I thought I knew them all, but that wasn't the case.‎ As I drove home, I noticed two lamp poles(杆), one on each side of the street. When my dad was around, those poles supported wooden boxes about four feet off the ground. One box was painted green and the other was red, and each had a long narrow hole at the top with white lettering: SANTA CLAUS, NORTH POLE. For years children had dropped letters to Santa through those holes.‎ I made a turn at the corner and drove past the post office and across the railroad tracks to our house. Mom and I were sitting at the kitchen table when I heard footsteps. There, at the door, stood Frank Townsend, Dad's postmaster and great friend for many years. So we all sat down at the table and began to tell stories.‎ At one point Frank looked at me with tears in his eyes. "What are we going to do about the letters this Christmas?" he asked.‎ ‎"The letters?"‎ ‎"I guess you never knew. "‎ ‎"Knew what?"‎ ‎"Remember, when you were a kid and you used to put your letters to Santa in those green and red boxes on Main Street? It was your dad who answered all those letters every year. "‎ I just sat there with tears in my eyes. It wasn’t hard for me to imagine Dad sitting at the old table in our basement reading those letters and answering each one. I have since spoken with several of the people who received Christmas letters during their childhood, and they told me how amazed they were that Santa had known so much about their homes and families.‎ For me, just knowing that story about my father was the gift of a lifetime.‎ ‎28.It can be inferred from the passage that the writer regarded his travels with Dad as_____.‎ A.great chances to help other people B.happy occasions to play with baby chickens C.exciting experience with a lot of fun D.good opportunities to enjoy chocolate cookies ‎29.The writer provides the detail about the businessman to show that_____.‎ A.Dad had a strong sense of duty B.Dad was an honest and reliable man C.Dad had a strong sense of honor D.Dad was a kind and generous man ‎30.What surprised the children most when they received letters in reply from Santa Claus every year?‎ A.Santa Claus lived alone in the cold North Pole.‎ B.Santa Claus answered all their letters every year.‎ C.Santa Claus had unique mailboxes for the children.‎ D.Santa Claus had so much information about their families.‎ ‎31.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?‎ A.The Mail B.Christmas Letters C.Special Mailboxes D.Memorable Travels D ‎.Honesty may seem to be the best policy and a value that parents teach their children.However,a new study has suggested that parents lie to their children more often than we think.‎ ‎“We are surprised by how often parenting by lying occurs to our children,”said researcher Kang Lee of the University of Toronto,Canada.“Our findings showed that even the parents who attached much importance to honesty with their children got involved in it.”‎ Researchers ran two studies in which parents and students commented on nine situations where a parent lied to a child to either shape behaviour or make it happy.For instance,a parent is embarrassed by a child's crying and says,“The police will come to make sure that you behave if you don't stop crying now.”‎ To control the emotion of the child,the parent told the child,“a favorite uncle has just died and become a star to watch over you.”‎ The researchers tested about 130 parents,mostly moms,asking whether they had told similar lies.More than 70 percent said they taught their children that lying is unacceptable.Even so,nearly 80 percent of the parents admitted they had told at least one similar lie.‎ Researcher Heyman suggested the reasons can be benefiting the parents themselves or protecting the child from scary issues,such as lying about a murder in the news.‎ ‎“Children sometimes behave in ways that are likely to harm their long-term interests,”said Heyman.“It is common for parents to try out a number of strategies,including lying.When parents are dealing with the demands of getting through the day,concerns about possible long-term negative influences on child-ren's beliefs about honesty are not necessarily at the front position.”‎ ‎32.What can we learn from Paragraph 2? A.Most parents don't lie to their children. B.Many parents get used to teaching children by lying. C.Honesty is no longer important in educating children. D.There's no doubt that children often lie to their parents. 33.Which of the following is NOT a reason for parenting by lying according to the text? A.Children may feel happy with the lies. B.Parents want to free themselves from trouble. C.Parents need to protect the children from bad things. D.Children sometimes don't want to know the truth. 34.According to Heyman,________. A.negative effects of lying aren't paid enough attention to B.children won't be misled about honesty by lying C.it's unusual for parents to use lying to educate children D.it's strange that some people worry about children's beliefs 35.The purpose of this text is to ________. A.show that children learn to lie from their parents B.tell parents the importance of children's honesty C.show how to educate children by lying D.show parenting by lying is common ‎ 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Most people know how difficult it is to get along with others.___36___If one doesn’t get along with himself, how could he be expected to get along with others?‎ Getting along with self is the most important point in getting along with others in this world.
