One way is to teach students how to learn more effectively and efficiently. Learning strategies are Procedures or techniques that learners can use to facilitate a learning task. Instructing students of English in learning strategies can help them become better learners. In addition, skill in using learning strategies assists students in becoming independent, confident learners. Finally, students become more motivated as they begin to understand the relationship between their use of strategies and success in learning English. Students need to develop an awareness of the learning process and strategies that lead to success. Students who reflect on their own thinking are more likely to engage in planning how to proceed with a learning task, monitoring their own performance on an ongoing basis, finding solutions to problems encountered, and evaluating themselves upon task completion. These activities may be difficult for students accustomed to having a teacher who solves all their learning problems and is the sole judge of their progress. Teachers need to encourage students to rely more on themselves. Because learning strategies are mental processes with few observable manifestations, teachers need to find ways to make the strategies as concrete as possible. When students are able to use the strategies their teachers have taught them, and to do so without prompting, then they need to explore new strategies, new applications, and new opportunities for self-regulated learning.(1). Better learning strategies can make language learning more( ).A. funB. interesting C. efficientD. exciting(2). Students who reflect on their own ( )will be more successful in learning.A. thinkingB. evaluationC. performance D. activities(3). Teachers should encourage students to rely more on ( )A. booksB. notesC. tutorsD. themselves(4). Learning strategies are unobservable mental processes, so teachers should make them ( )A. simplerB. more familiar C. more concrete D. more applicable(5). Which of the following statements is true? ( )A. Students learn learning strategies from the teachers only.B. Learning strategies are completely unobservable. C. Students need to explore new learning strategies for themselves.D. Teachers are the sole judges of students progress.2. To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor; you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your students; you must be a clear speaker, with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under you control; and you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear. Watch a good teacher, and you will see that he does not move motionless before his class; he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanation, and his face to express his feeling. Listen to him, and you will hear the loudness, the quality and musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesnt mean he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teachers word and the actors. The actor has to speak words which has been learnt by heart, he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage.A good teacher works in quite a different way. His audience takes an active part in his play: they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they dont understand something, they say so. The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the needs of his audience, which is his class. He cant learn his part in a stage-play, because their brains couldnt keep discipline: they could not keep strictly to what other had written.(1). A good teacher ( ).A. knows how to hold the interest of his studentsB. must have a good voiceC. knows how to act on the stageD. stands or sits motionless while teaching(2). In what way is a teachers work different from an actors? ( )A. The teacher must learn everything by heart.B. He knows how to control his voice better than an actor.C. he has to deal with unexpected situations.D. He has to use more facial expressions.(3). The main difference between students in class and theatre audience is that ( ).A. students can move around in the classroomB. students must keep silent while theatre audience C. no memory work is needed for the studentsD. the students must take part in their teachers plays3. Ever since humans have inhabited the earth, they have made use of various forms of communication. Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished through sign language in which motions stand for letters, words and ideas. Tourists, the deaf, and the mute have had to resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of whole words are very picturesque and exact and can be used Internationally; spelling, however, cannot. Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or unintentionally. A wink can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking. A nod signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction. Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots read with the fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide, warn, and instruct people. While verbalization is the most common form of language, other systems and techniques also express human thoughts and feelings.(1). Which of the following best summarizes this passage? ( )A. When language is a barrier, people will find other forms of communication.B. Everybody uses only one form of communication.C. Nonlinguistic language is invaluable to foreigners.D. Although other forms of communication exist, verbalization is the fastest.(2). Which of the following statements is not true according to the passage? ( )A. There are many forms of communication in existence today.B. Verbalization is the most common form of communication.C. The deaf and mute do not need sign language for communication.D. Ideas and thoughts can be transmitted by language.(3). Which form other than oral speech would be most commonly used among blind people? ( )A. Picture signs. B. Braille. C. Body language. D. Signal flags.(4). How many different forms of communication are mentioned here? ( )A. 2 4 B. 5 7 C. 8 10 D. Over 10(5). Sign language is said to be very picturesque and exact and can be used internationally as it doesnt represent ( )A. spellings B. whole words C. ideas D. feelings4. Most animals have little connection with animals of different kind, unless they hunt them for food. Sometimes, however, two kinds of animals come together in a partnership ( 伙伴關系 ) which does good to both of them. You may have noticed some birds sitting on the backs of sheep. This is not because they want a ride, but because they find easy food in the parasites （寄生蟲 ) on sheep. The sheep allow the birds to do so because they remove the cause of discomfort. So although they can manage without each other, they do better together. Sometimes an animal has a plant partner. The relationship develops until the two partners cannot manage without each other. This is so in the corals ( 珊瑚 ) of the sea. In their skins they have tiny plants act as dustman, taking some of the waste products form the corals and giving in return oxygen which the animal needs to breathe. If the plants are killed, or are ever prevented from lighting so that they cannot live normally, the corals will die.(1).

Most animals only have connection with animals.C. The connection between the living things.D. Corals have some connection with plants.5. Exercise is one of the few factors with a positive role in long-term maintenance of body weight. Unfortunately, that message has not gotten through to the average American, who would rather try switching to “light” beer and low-calorie bread than increase physical exertion. Doctors found that less than one-fourth of overweight adults who were trying to reduce weight said they were combining exercise with their diet. Still, exercises supporting role in weight reduction is necessary. A study confirmed that those who dieted without exercise regained almost all their old weight, while those who worked exercise into their daily routine maintained their new weight. If you have been sedentary and decide to start walking one mile a day, the added exercise could burn an extra 100 calories daily. In a year time, assuming no increase in food intake, you could lost ten pounds. By increasing the distance of your walks gradually and making other dietary adjustments, you may lose even more weight.(1). According to the passage, what is the advantage of exercise mentioned by the author? ( )A. It can help you keep good health.B.It can help you maintain body weight.C. It can help you get rid of illness.D.It can help you find a good job.(2). When American people decided to lose their weight, what would they rather try? ( )A. To do exercise.B. To try some “light” beer.C. To try some “light” beer and low-calorie bread.D. To try both A and C.(3). The following statements are true except ( ).A. If people try some special food such as “light” beer when they want to lose weight, they would not regain their old weight.B. Both the diet and exercise play an important role in losing weight.C.

The word “reduce” (Para. 1 ) probably means ( ).A. decreaseB. loseC. lessenD. cut down (5). This passage is mainly about ( ).A. the meaning of exerciseB. the way to reduce weightC. the relation between lose weight and exerciseD. the importance of losing weight6. A Reading is not the only way to gain knowledge of the work in the past. There is another large reservoir ( 知識庫 ) which may be called experience, and the college student will find that every craftsman ( 工匠 ) has something he can teach and will generally teach gladly to any college student who does not look down upon them . The information from them differs from ( 不同于 ) that in textbooks and papers chiefly in that its theoretical ( 理論的 ) part - the explanations of why things happen - is frequently quite fantastic ( 神奇的 ) . But the demonstration ( 示范 ) and report of what happens , and how it happens are correct even if the reports are in completely unscientific terms ( 術語 ). Presently the college student will learn, in this case also, what to accept and what to reject. One important thing for a college student to remember is that if Aristotle could talk to the fisherman, so can he. Another source of knowledge is the vast store of traditional ( 傳統的 ) practices handed down from father to son , or mother to daughter, of old country customs ( 習慣 ), of folklore ( 風俗 ). All this is very difficult for a college student to examine, for much knowledge and personal experience is needed here to separate good plants from wild grass. The college student should learn to realize and remember how much of real value science has found in this wide, confused wilderness and how often scientific discoveries of w
