Many language learners think their pronunciation is good enough because their teacher doesn’t correct them too often or because other students can 36 them.
Pronunciation is the area which is 37 the least attention to in language learning. Most teachers 38 just let their students speak. The teachers stop them 39 the students say something completely wrong. Working on each student’s pronunciation in class is just 40. Also, the students who are 41 at pronunciation may be afraid that it will embarrass their classmates if they help 42 their mistakes.
Although you believe your pronunciation is good enough to 43, you may be 44 when you actually go to a foreign country. One of my friends was the best student in his 45 class in Poland. However, when he went to America, he found Americans didn’t understand 46 of what he said.
Your pronunciation may still be quite 47 that of a native speaker. If this is the 48, other people will find it 49 to understand what you’re saying and will not be comfortable with you.
50, don’t think you can communicate in a foreign language 51 you’ve tested your skills on real native speakers. 52 for native or near­native pronunciation so that people you talk to can communicate with you 53. In order to achieve this goal, there’s no 54 that you will need to start thinking about pronunciation and 55 time on it.

根据短文内容,从短文后的七个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。
Should Good Sportsmanship Be Taught in School?
Almost everyone feels that it is important for young people to win fairly and show respect toward others.Should good sportsmanship, then, be taught in school? Critics do not think so.     1    Presented here are the most important benefits of teaching sportsmanship.
Teaching good sportsmanship and having a positive attitude in activities like sports, class elections, and science fair competitions are critical to success in school.    2     Acting calmly under pressure helps young adults succeed not only in sports but also in life.
     3    A person cannot play by the rules if he or she does not understand what the rules are.Knowing the rules also applies to other activities.If students enter a science fair competition, for example, they must follow the guidelines. Those who know the rules are much more likely to succeed.When students learn sportsmanship, they discover, how knowing the rules relates to achievement.
Good players become skilled at handling responsibility.When people accept responsibility, they achieve their best.Positive thinkers, moreover, influence others, especially those who are struggling with a problem.A gifted basketball player, for example, might teach skills to a less-talented player.Helping others raises the performance of the entire team.The team, consequently, could reach new heights and set new records.     4    Those who do not practice sportsmanship pass off responsibility.For them, if an opportunity is lost, it is someone else' s fault.When students participate on a team, they benefit by learning to accept responsibility, encourage others and own up to(认错) mistakes.
Sportsmanship is a winning idea.It must be taught in school.Students need direction to become good sports".Students will be responsible for their own actions and will have a positive influence on others.As students enter the workforce, businesses benefit.The community also benefits because these students will someday become leaders.     5   
A.We need to educate students about how sportsmanship pays off for everyone.
B.However, the stronger argument favors teaching good sportsmanship.
C.Sports help young adults learn how to team up with others.
D.Good sportsmanship also means admitting mistakes.
E.Activities involving winning or losing can be tense.
F.It is natural that players should be eager to win.
G.Good team players know the rules of the game.

Throughout seafaring history, ships and sailors have been lost to storms, accidents and war. Until recently, most of these ships were weak wooden sailing vessel (船只), their skeletons(骨架) quickly eaten away by sea creatures. Now, large vessels made of steel float on the seas. Thousands of these huge ships have been lost in times of war and in times of peace.
The bones of great metal ships, unlike the wooden vessels of old, survive the destruction of the sea long enough to become home and harbor for underwater life of all kinds. Shipwrecks(残骸) often provide the only hard surface and structure at the sandy bottom of the sea, something many sea creatures need.
The ship has been underwater for only five days. Its surface is still clean. Six weeks later, the wreck is covered with a slimy layer of algae(海藻), but it is still recognizable as a ship. Soon, animals that need to attach themselves to a hard surface, like the feather duster worms, make the wreck their home.
In warm waters, coral polyps(珊瑚虫) settle on the wreck and begin the process of building a rock-like crust on the ship. Small fish are attracted on all of these creatures. Larger fish come to feed on these small fish that hide in the wreckage. Eventually, the largest animals are attracted to the rich life on the shipwreck.
Shipwrecks give us valuable information about how sea plants and animals develop. We know exactly how long this wreck has been under water and how long sea life has been growing on it. Yet even the strongest steel shipwreck will finally be destroyed by the flows of water. But long after this wreck has been broken apart, it will still act as a reef (礁石). Layer upon layer of sea life has formed a structure that is now more natural than artificial, and will remain an island of life under the sea.
小题1:Which of the following is NOT TRUE about shipwrecks?
A.Most ships in ancient times sank easily and become shipwrecks.
B.Shipwrecks, for scientists, are worth researching to get valuable information.
C.The skeletons of old wooden shipwrecks will exist for quite a long time.
D.Some sea animals tend to seek food on the shipwrecks.
小题2:The writer’s purpose in writing the article is to tell us_____.
A.the differences between the ancient vessels and the modern ones
B.how the ships become shipwrecks at sea
C.how coral polyps live on the wreck in warm waters
D.the value of studying shipwrecks at the bottom of the sea
小题3:Which of the following is closer to the underlined “crust”?
A.a hard outer coveringB.the skin of a rock
C.a hole in a shipD.a small house
小题4:What will happen to shipwrecks in the end?
A.They will be pulled out of the sea for research.
B.They are likely to disappear and form reefs.
C.They will become an island under the sea.
D.They will be like works of art.

阅读下面短文并回答问题(请注意问题后的词数要求)。
When your toothbrush is at the end of its days, don’t just throw it away, as a survey has revealed many other uses for an old toothbrush.
The survey was carried out by the Dental Health Foundation to promote National Smile Month and more than 1, 000 people participated in the survey. It found that more than four in every five people re-use their toothbrush for another purpose.
Four in ten people use an old toothbrush to brush bathroom tiles (瓷砖), and almost a third use it to clean kitchen appliances. More than a quarter of those questioned use old toothbrushes to clean jewellery, and roughly one in every five use them for shining shoes. Some other uses for toothbrushes include cleaning bikes, computer keyboards, toilet seats, fish tanks and finger nails.
The survey also found that the age of the owner can determine what happens to a toothbrush after it is not suitable to be used to brush teeth any more. People over 75 are three times more likely to re-use their toothbrush for a different purpose than those between the ages of 16 and 34 and twice more likely than those between 35 and 44.
Additionally,           to reuse their toothbrush for chores (日常琐事) and other uses than their male counterparts. Some women admitted to using their toothbrush to apply hair dye (染料)while some men said they used an old toothbrush to clean their dog’s teeth.
Chief Executive of the British Dental Health Foundation, Dr Nigel Carter, said, “We all should get through around four toothbrushes every year if we are to keep our oral health in great condition. Generally people don’t change their toothbrushes often enough, but there are still plenty of toothbrushes
lying around the house. Our survey has shown that people have realized that a toothbrush is of great value and has a role to play beyond its normal use.”

How would you like to learn more without having to study more?Here’s how:
1.Get to bed and go to sleep.Your performance,attention,and the ability to concentrate are damaged by lack of sleep.Teenagers need nine to ten hours of sleep a night for best performance.
2.Feed your head.The brain runs badly if it doesn’t get enough fuel.That means protein(蛋白质)and complex carbs (复合碳水化合物)-eggs and wheat bread for breakfast,say,rather than sugary cereal(含糖的麦片粥)and orange juice.The biggest mistake teens make is not to have breakfast or to go for sugar,which raises blood sugar levels.
3.Body exercise is brain exercise.Body exercise really improves brain performance,perhaps because it increases blood flow,or perhaps because it reduces stress and anxiety(焦虑).Twenty minutes of activity a day that raises your heart rate will do great good.
4.Learn now what you want to remember for the rest of your life.Teenage brains are much better at remembering things than the brains  of young children or adults.Scientists aren’t sure why.Whatever the reason,the teenage years are the time to learn new languages and master other lifelong skills.
5.Learn the power of risk taking.Adults are always worried about the downside of teenage risk?taking,and it’s true that teenagers are more likely than adults to get themselves in trouble by drinking and driving.But the fact that the parts of the brain that drive people to try new,risky,and exciting things appear to be more developed in teenagers can be a huge advantage.Pick certain challenges-difficult sports,a hard job,mastering a performance art,traveling overseas-and the teenage brain is able to deal with them.They have this power they’re given to go out and do it without fear.
6.Learn what you love.Because emotional(情感的)systems develop fast in teenager brains,teenagers learn things they’re interested in quickly and well.Their brains give them tools like attention on the project.
小题1:According to the passage,teenagers should have    for breakfast.
A.wheat bread and eggsB.sugar and orange juice
C.sugar and breadD.wheat bread and orange juice
小题2:Body exercise plays a part in all the following EXCEPT    .
A.making people less anxiousB.raising heart rate
C.reducing blood pressureD.reducing stress
小题3:The underlined word “downside” in the passage probably means    .
A.excitementB.disadvantage
C.benefitD.power
小题4:It can be learned from the passage that    .

It was a cold evening and my daughter and I were walking up Broadway. I didn’t notice a guy sitting inside a cardboard box. But Nora did. She wasn’t even four, but she  36  at my coat and said, “That man’s cold. Daddy,  37  we take him home?”

The building was in a sad state. Facing us was a silver-haired woman in an old dress. She took the package and asked us to come in. Nora ran inside. I unwillingly followed. 50  inside, I saw that the department belonged to someone poor. Our hostess showed us some photos. Nora played and when it came time to say goodbye, we three hugged, I walked home in tears.
Professionals call such a(n)  51  “a volunteer opportunity”. They are opportunities, I’ve come to see. Where else but as volunteers do you have opportunity to do something  52  that’s good for others as well as for yourself? Nora and I regularly serve to needy people and  53  clothes for the homeless. Yet, as I’ve  54  her grow over these past four years, I still wonder—which of us has  55  more?

For all dinner tables, a glass of milk seems to be a must. At least it was when I was growing up. It is widely believed that milk is a must in building strong bones and teeth. There’s no doubt that dairy products, especially milk, are high in protein and calcium, and Vitamin D and Vitamin A are added to most milk products.
While it’s well known that our bones need calcium, some studies suggest that high calcium intake doesn’t necessarily lower a person’s risk for fractures(骨折). A Harvard study found that people who drank two or more glasses of milk had no greater protection from breaking a bone than those who drank a glass or less a week.
There is no doubt that we need calcium. Some anti-dairy supporters claim dairy products can lead to heart disease. Much of this claim is based on high-fat dairy products, like cheese and cream, which may indeed lead to some health problems. Some studies have linked high milk intakes with a risk of prostate cancer; this seems also to be caused by high-fat dairy products, but not by dairy products in general.
Although milk has always been regarded as the most important thing we need for our bones, one of the most important things in strengthening bones and reducing the risk of osteoporosis(骨质疏松)is weight-bearing exercise, such as jogging, walking, and weight lifting.
Perhaps we should think of dairy products as less like a nutrient and more like a food. If you like it, eat it. If not, find something else to eat. Some claims may not be completely true. When I eat cream, I’m not thinking about calcium, protein, or any such thing. I’m thinking it is delicious.
小题1:What is the best title for this passage?
A.Milk: is it really necessary for children?B.The disadvantages of drinking milk.
C.Milk causes health problems.D.Milk: is it really good for the body?
小题2:For people who want to reduce the risk of osteoporosis, we can infer that the writer may suggest that they ________.
A.avoid milk with Vitamin D and Vitamin A added
B.spend some time exercising
C.take in as much calcium as possible
D.drink more than two glasses of milk every day
小题3:Based on the passage, we learn the writer may agree that ________.
A.milk is the most important thing that we need for our bones
B.children should not be permitted to eat cream
C.milk should be considered more like a food than a nutrient
D.children should drink milk whether they like it or not
小题4:What can we learn from the passage?
A.Some dairy products may harm our health.
B.Milk has the highest level of protein of any food.
C.The writer seldom drank milk when he was young
D.People who drink milk every day are at a high risk of getting a heart disease.

Some years ago industries had more freedom than they have now, and they did not need to be as careful as they must today. They did not need to worry a lot about the safety of the new products that they developed. They did not have to pay much attention to the health and safety of the people who worked for them. Often new products were dangerous for the people who used them; often conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers.
Of course sometimes there were real disasters which attracted the attention of governments and which showed the need for changes. Also scientists who were doing research into the health of workers sometimes produced information which governments could not ignore. At such times, they inquire into the causes of the disasters or the problems. New safety rules were often introduced as a result of these inquiries; however. the new rules came too late to protect the people who died or who became seriously ill.
Today many governments have special departments which protect customers and workers.In the U.S, for example, there is a department which tests new airplanes and gives warnings about possible problems. It also makes the rules that aircraft producers must follow. Another department controls the foods and drugs that companies sell. A third department looks at the places where people work. and then reports any companies that are breaking the laws which protect the health and safety of workers. Of course, new government departments and new laws cannot prevent every accident or illness. but they are having some good results. Our work places are safer and cleaner than before. The planes and cars which we use for travel are better. Producers are thinking more about the safety and health of the people who buy and use their products.
小题1:The main topic of the passage is ___________________________________________.
A.conditions in the work placeB.the freedom of industries in the past
C.changes in industrial productionD.the safety and health of workers and customers
小题2:It can be inferred from the passage that in the past __________________________.
A.workers often got ill because of the poor working conditions
B.companies were free to put out any products they wanted to
C.many people were killed by dangerous products
D.industries were as careful in management as they are today
小题3:It is implied (暗示) in the passage that ________________________________________.
A.governments and companies had different opinions about the safety of products
B.governments paid little attention to the safety of products
C.government officials often did not listen to scientists
D.in the past no safety laws were introduced by governments

Three quarters of Britain’s parents are too busy to read bedtime stories to their children,according to a study. The study was carried out by CITV to start their new children’s show Bookaboo,which is designed to encourage anyone to pick up a book and read with their children at any time of the day.
Worryingly,the study showed that only three percent of fathers now find the time to read to the kids compared to 89 percent of mothers. Lucy Goodman,creator of Bookaboo,said,“It’s important for young boys to be able to share a book with dads,granddads or male carers and it can be fun and rewarding,too.” Of the dads who said they didn’t read to their kids,87 percent blamed work while more than a third said they were too tired. While 89 percent of mums said they did read to their children,more than half of them said cleaning distracted (使分心) them and 49 percent were distracted by other household things.
Researchers also found parents are now relying heavily on other people to lend a hand with reading to their children with grandparents doing the most,followed by sisters and brothers,aunts and uncles. While 95 percent of parents read to their children at some point,only five percent read to their children during the day. More than one in ten said they read every couple of weeks or less,and five percent could not remember the last time they shared a book.
The study found parents also seem content with allowing their children to immerse (使沉浸) themselves in TV programs or playing computer games rather than reading.
Ex­goalkeeper David Seaman,who is a dad of two,has been a guest in Bookaboo.He says,“I think it’s important that fathers do read to their children because it’s a special time. Sometimes my two children will come to listen to the same book—it’s a magical moment and I advise fathers just to try it.”
小题1:We can know from the passage that Bookaboo________.
A.is a daily showB.is an adults’ show
C.is a popular showD.aims to encourage people to read to their children
小题2:According to the study,fathers don’t read to their kids mainly because________.
A.they are too busy with work
B.they don’t think it necessary to do so
C.they are distracted by household things
D.they like to play computer games in their free time
小题3:Which group of people helped parents read to the kids the most?
A.Aunts and uncles.B.Grandparents.
C.Children’s carers.D.Children’s sisters and brothers.
小题4:According to the last paragraph,David Seaman________.
A.is a goalkeeper nowB.has only one child
C.is the creator of BookabooD.thinks it is great to read to children
