If you want to become a fluent English speaker you should take some suggestions: there are four skills in learning English. They are reading, listening, speaking and writing. The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills, you should first master the skills of reading and listening.
Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. It means that you must think about the meaning of the sentences, the meaning of the unfamiliar words, etc. There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammar or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you come across, but the fact that you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example in other passages or books, is enough. It would be better to prepare yourself a notebook so you can write down the important words or sentences in it.
As for listening, there are two choices: besides reading, you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. You can only pay attention to your reading and become skillful at your reading, then you can catch up on your listening. Since you have lots of inputs in your mind, you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. This never means that you should not practice listening.
For listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. Their languages are easy. Or if you are good at listening you can listen to VOA or BBC programs every day.
Again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably taking some notes. If you follow these pieces of advice, your speaking and writing will improve automatically, and you can be sure that with a little effort they will become perfect.
24．According to the author, which should you improve first among the four skills
A．Speaking and listening. B．Reading and writing.
C．Writing and speaking. D．Reading and listening.
25．To improve your reading, when you read you should 　　　　.
A．look up all the new words in the dictionary B．think about what you are reading actively
C．spend more time studying grammar D．copy as many words and sentences as possible
26．The author seems to agree with the view that 　　　　.
A．everyone should listen to VOA or BBC programs every day
B．you needn’t practice listening
C．being good at reading is helpful in improving your listening
D．you should take notes of whatever you are hearing
27．The passage is mainly about how to 　　　　.
A．choose suitable listening materials B．deal with new words in reading
C．improve your grammar as quickly as possible D．become fluent in speaking and writing English
C
When I was a child, I stayed with my grandmother a lot of the time while my mother was at work. One day some money problems started to arise for my grandmother and the family. They needed a little more income so she decided to sing at the nearby retirement home (养老院).
So I had to go with her. I wasn’t sure about it at first, but as soon as my grandmother actually persuaded me to get on stage and start singing, I loved it. I just loved seeing that sparkle (光亮) in those people’s eyes. They would stand up and dance and clap to the beat of the music. Eventually, we were singing at many of the homes in the surrounding area 5 out of 7 days a week.
Making other people happy has always made me happy. And during that experience I even discovered my gift, singing. My grandma still sings to those people 15 years later, only for no charge now. I moved to North Carolina when I was 13, leaving my grandma in Florida, but I still carry on her effort and try and go out of my way to do something kind, even if very small, for at least one person every day. There is no better feeling in the world than the one you get when you hear appreciation in someone’s voice.
28. The author’s grandmother sang at the nearby retirement home probably to ________.
A. bring joy to the old people there B. start a new career
C. make some money D. satisfy her husband
29. The underlined “it” in Paragraph 2 probably refers to “________”.
A. how the author could please the old people B. whether Grandmother could make money
C. whether the author could sing or not D. what songs the author had to sing
30. We can infer from the second paragraph that ________.
A. the author had great confidence when she started to sing
B. the audience were surprised that the author could sing at such an early age
C. the audience didn’t like the author at first
D. the author was loved by the audience
31. What does the author intend to tell us in the passage
A. One can find his gift only through failure. B. Others’ appreciation can make one happy.
C. One can succeed if he doesn’t give up halfway. D. It’s hard to win others appreciation.
D
Good relationship are definitely good sources of happiness in life. We all want happy relationships but if we do not keep that relationship alive, it can also be one of the most distraught things in life. There may be no hard and fast rules in making good relationships, as each of us has different preferences and points of view as to what is a great relationship. The following are some major key players in making relationships work.
It is often said that building good relationship is all about communication. Good communication indeed governs a good relationship—knowing the right thing to say, when to say it, how to say it, and accepting some things that are better left unsaid. I personally think communication must be broadened because relationships involve more decisions to make. From study to work, from money to entertainment and even in things about yourself or about your friends that you do not know, communication is necessary in these aspects of the relationships.
Of course, being with someone is not saying that you totally agree with him or her all the time. You and your friends come from different family backgrounds, raised in different environment so there may be disagreement here and there. However, it is important in making relationship work to express disagreements without pushing the relationship to end. Again, good communication and learning to compromise(妥协) at times are necessary.
As relationships last longer, you may also discover things about you and your friends that you may not have known before. Therefore supporting each other on both your “hidden selves” can also make a good relationship.
Love is an important aspect of building relationships and for me, I always believe that love needs open communication, respect, support and understanding each other in making relationships work.
32．The underlined word “distraught” in Paragraph 1 probably means _________.
A．interesting B．surprising C．funny D．upset
33．To communicate well with people, you should know that _________.
A．supporting each other in anything helps build a good relationship
B．a white lie is necessary sometimes
C．compromises are necessary at any time
D．your friends need to have the same backgrounds with you
34．According to the text, which of the following are NOT important for a good relationship
A．Communication B．Support. C．Hidden selves. D．Love.
35．What would be the best title for the text
A．Forbidden Rules in Building Good Relationships. B．Keys to Making Relationships Work.
C．Different Opinions on Good Relationships. D．The Importance to Express Disagreements.

Although most games have winners and losers, the goal of sports is not to win every game. The real goals include getting exercise, having fun, and learning important social skills, like sportsmanship.
Good sportsmanship is all about respect. Good sports (有体育精神的人) respect their teammates and also their opponents. They respect their coaches, and they also respect the referees or other officials involved in their games. 36 They shout at their teammates and they talk back to coaches or referees.
Kids usually learn sportsmanship good and bad from the adults in their lives. 37 If parents and coaches show disrespect for other fans, referees, or each other, kids will likely act the same way on the field.
38 Some of them are very basic and easy to do, like shaking hands with other players before a game. Other examples may take a little more courage, such as acknowledging a great play made by the opposing team.
Learning good sportsmanship is important because it helps you develop an attitude of graciousness (礼貌) and respect that will carry over into all the other areas of your life. 39 Being a good sport in the classroom will eventually lead to being a good sport in the workplace.
So be a good sport in whatever you do! 40 When others see you acting in a way that makes it clear that winning isn’t the most important thing, you can move on to focusing on the important things, like having fum, getting exercise, and improving your skills!
A．Good sportsmanship can be shown in many ways.
B．However, bad sportsmanship is all about disrespect.
C．Players’ parents and coaches set examples that kids tend to follow.
D．We can be good sports by encouraging others but not laughing at them.
E．Starting as a good sport earlier will help you be a good sport as you get old.
F. If you’re a good sport on the field, you’ll also likely be a good sport in the classroom.
G．The example you set can be a powerful teaching tool for others.

67. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整故事。续写的词数应为150词左右。
My great-grandfather, my grandfather and my father are farmers , and so are all my family. My father has a fixed idea that I would become a farmer too. Although I respect him and am indeed skilled at doing some farm work, I don't agree that I should automatically follow in my father's footsteps.
When I was a teenager, my father happened to take me to an airport which belonged to one of his friends. It was the first time I had seen an airplane in real life. Knowing that I had never been on board, my father's friend Tom offered me an opportunity to fly with him in his small airplane. I quickly accepted his offer! When we took off, I felt nervous but excited. Being up in the clouds and looking at the view below was unlike anything I had ever felt. I was just enjoying it. I assumed being a pilot would be the most fantastic thing in the whole world. From that day,a thought occurred my mind that I wanted to become a pilot, but I doubted whether my father would support me. After all, it was a totally different path from what he had planned for me. Therefore, I put the thought to the back of my mind , because I knew he would still insist on holding onto his previous idea.
Anyway, besides helping my father on the farm, I would frequently visit Tom's airport. Gradually, I got familiar with every button and switch on the aircraft and I learned a lot about planes, such as how to fill the plane with fuel, how to check the engines and so on. But what I had learned just left me wanting more, so I decided to go to college to become a professional pilot.
This time I would not hide my dream any more.
At the graduation ceremony, with my father present, I, as "Best Pilot", had to deliver a speech.
