21、ases.Think of things yon might want to say whenever yon have spare time.A basic example is the rise of tenses.If you dont know the past tense but want to talk about yesterday，use the verb in the present tense and use the word for“yesterday”.Use facial expression，hand movements，anything to get your m

22、eaning across.Language learning is also about intuition(直覺)Guesswork is an important strategy in learning a new language.When listening to recorded material，yon arent expected to understand everything first time round.If you play the same piece several times，you will most probably understand somethi

27、run before you can walk.BBy far the most common difficulty in study is simple failure to get down to regular concentrated work. This difficulty is much greater for those who do not work to a plan and have no regular routine of study. Many students muddle along ,doing a bit of this subject or that ,a

28、s the mood takes them, or letting their set work pile up until the last possible moment.Few students work to a set timetable .They say that if they did work out a timetable for themselves they would not keep to it ,or would have to change it frequently ,since they can never predict (foresee) from on

29、e day to the next what their activities will be .No doubt some students take much more kindly to a regular routine than others .There are many who shy away from a self-controlled weekly timetable ,and dislike being tied down to a fixed programme of work .Many able students state that they work in cy

30、cles .When they become interested in a topic they work on it attentively for three or four days at a time .On other days they avoid work completely .It has to be admitted that we do not fully understand the motivation（動(dòng)機(jī)）to work .Most people over 25 years of age have become used to a work routine ,a

31、nd the majority of really productive workers set aside regular hours for the more important areas of their work .The “tough-minded” school of workers doesnt fully accept the idea that good work can only be done naturally ,under the influence of inspiration（靈感）.Those who believe that they need only w

32、ork and study as the fit takes them have a mistaken belief either in their own talent or in the value of “freedom” .Freedom from control and discipline（紀(jì)律）leads to unhappiness rather than to “self-expression” or “personality development” . Our society insists on regular habits ,timekeeping and punct

33、uality （準(zhǔn)時(shí)），and whether we like it or not ,if we mean to make our way in society ,we have to meet its demands.（ ）50.The most widespread problem in applying oneself to study is .A.changing from one subject to another B.the failure to keep to a set timetable of workC.the unwillingness to follow a syst

34、ematic planD.working on a subject only when one feels like it （ ）51.Which of the following is true?A.Many students are not interested in using a self-controlled timetable.B.Many students dont like being told to study to a fixed timetable.C.Most people over 25 years of age dont work to a set timetabl

36、. Attitudes to StudyB.A Study PlanC. The difficulties of Studying D. Study and Self-disciplineCWhat makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence

37、 the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is par

38、ticularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理學(xué)家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great dea

39、l with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing si

40、lly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “You are such a smart child.”（ ）54. The words “intelligent” and “brilliant” in the first paragraph probably mean _ while “dull” in

The less you use your mind the duller you may become.C. Intelligence is obviously the result of where and how you live.D. What makes a person b

44、right or stupid is still under discussion.DNo one could have failed to be moved had he watched the live televised volleyball game between the Chinese and Cuban womens teams. As we sat before the television set, with our eyes fixed on the screen, we experienced every kind of feeling. When the two tea

45、ms played neck and neck, we were on pins and needles, anxious as to what would come next, and when our team fell behind our hearts were in our mouths. Watching the game between those two teams is not only a matter of great joy. For more than that it provides food for thought. Just see how the Chines

46、e women won the game by their co operation (合作), by their excellent skill, their effort and strong will. A Chinese saying goes, “When two competent opponents (比賽的雙方) meet, the strong minded one will win. “This is the spirit of the Chinese Womens Volleyball Team. If every Chinese showed some of the s

47、pirit, never losing heart in times of difficulty and remaining clear minded in times of advantage (優(yōu)勢(shì)), then our nation would stand in the vanguard (前列) of the world family of nations, just as the Chinese Womens Volleyball Team has done, is doing and will do. （ ）58.
