阅读下列短文，并做每题后面的题目，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出能完成所给句子的正确答案。

A

In learning English, one should first pay attention to listening and speaking. It is the groundwork of reading and writing. You’d better try your best to speak while you do much listening. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. But be careful not to let them stop you from improving

your English. While you are doing this, a good way is to write-----keep a diary, write notes or letters, then if you can, ask some others to go through what you have written and tell you where it is wrong. Many mistakes, you can do better sin learning English.

If you are slow in speaking , don’t worry, One of the helpful ways is reading, either aloud or to yourself. The important thing is to choose something interesting to read. It mustn’t be too difficult for you. When you are reading in this way, don’t stop to look up the words if you can guess their meaning when they have nothing important to do with the sentence. You can do that some other time.

57. For the beginners, listening and speaking is . A. more important than reading and writing B. not so important as reading and writing C. as important as reading and writing D. not so useful in learning English 58.When you are speaking, . A. you shouldn’t make any mistakes B. you must speak slowly

C. it doesn’t matter if you make any mistakes D. you had hatter take a dictionary with you

59.One of the good ways to find your mistakes in your speaking is to . A. speak as much as possible B. write notes or letters

C. ask some Americans to speak with you D. read more English books

60. If you want to be fast in speaking, you should choose something .

A. difficult to read aloud B. easy to read to yourself C. interesting to read to yourself D. important to read aloud 61.In reading, if you meet a new word which has something important to do with the sentence, you’d better . A. stop to look it up

B. not look it up and just go on reading C. stop reading at once D. not stop to look it up B

Travel is fun and exciting, but it’s not if you get sick. You may think, “Not me, I won’t get sick on my vacation(假期).” But for many people, that is what happens. Of course you don’t want to spend your vacation sick in bed. So what can you do to stay in good health? There are three thins you should remember when you travel: relax, sleep and eat well.

A vacation is supposed to be a time for relaxing. But very often it is not. Think about what you do when you are a tourist. There are so many

places to visit: museums, shops, parks and churches. You may spend most days walking around these places. This can be very tiring. Your feet may hurt .You may have a terrible headache after a few hours. If this is the way you feel, you should take a rest. Don’t ask you body too much. A tired body means a weak body. And a weak body gets sick easily. So sit down for a few hours in a nice spot. In good weather, look for a quiet park bench. Or you can stop at a café. You can learn a lot by watching people while you rest.

Sleep is also important. If you want to stay healthy, you need to get enough sleep. You may have trouble sleeping at night when you travel. Your hotel room may be noisy or the bed may be uncomfortable. If this is true, don’t be afraid to change rooms or hotels. Or, you may not get enough sleep for another reason.

You may want to stay out late at night, In many cities the night life can be very exciting. Then you should plan to sleep for an hour during the day. That extra hour can make a big difference.

Finally, if you want to stay healthy, you must eat well. That means eating the right kinds of foods. Your body needs flesh fruits and vegetables, and some meat, milk or cheese. When you are in a new country you may want to try new foods but you need to be careful about how much you eat. Lots of rich food is not good for you.

So, remember this, if you want you enjoy your vacation, take good

care of yourself. Give your body some rest. Get enough sleep and eat good , healthy food.

62.This passage is about . A. what to eat when you travel B. how to stay when you travel C. how exciting travel is D. relaxing when you travel 63.Sight-seeing can be . A. the best way to relax B. unhealthy C. never and fun D. very tiring

B. spend every day in bed C. take long vacations D. take lots of medicine
