In my opinion, the most effective way is to learn lessons by heart. If you can recite the text and write it out, youve learned it fairly well. And if you can tell, in your own words, what the lesson says youre a very successful learner indeed. Your English will be quite perfect.This is a difficult task. However, if you try to learn by heart only part of each lesson, youll find it not half so hard as you might have thought. Learning this way, you will make rapid progress. Of course, writing is also necessary. It helps you a lot on our way to success in English. Equally important is to feel the language. You should be able to laugh at jokes and be shocked at bad news. When using English, you should try to forget your mother tongue. Instead of helping you, your own language gets in your way. So, never try to see English through translation.61. In the writers opinion, the most effective way in learning English is _.A. To practice speaking, writing and feeling itB. To forget your own native languageC. To translate everything into his own languageD. To memorize the English words and grammatical rules62. “Instead of helping you, your own language gets in your way.” This sentence means that memorizing your own language can _.A. Help you to study English well B. Stop you mastering EnglishC. Make English easy to learn D. Help you notice mistakes63. Equally important is to feel the language. “to feel the language” here means_. A. To get a knowledge of English by touchingB. to be able to read and write EnglishC. To translate English into your own by imaginingD. To be able to experience the rich sensation of the languageBA healthy amount of sunshine may be the secret to staying young. British scientists have discovered. Vitamin D is produced naturally by the skin in response to(对的反应) sunlight and may help to slow the ageing process and protect against heart disease, according to the study. Researchers from Kings College London studied 2,160 women aged between 18 and 79, looking at their telomeres- a biological marker of ageing found in DNA. As people get older, their telomeres get shorter and they bee more susceptible(易受伤害的) to certain illnesses. But the study found women with high levels of vitamin D had paratively longer telomeres- a sign of being biologically younger and healthier. The study suggests vitamin D may help to slow down the ageing process of DNA, and therefore the ageing process as a whole. Lead researcher Dr Brent Richards said, “These results are exciting because they show for the first time that people who have higher levels of vitamin D may age more slowly than people with lower levels of vitamin D.” This could help to explain how vitamin D has a protective effect on many ageing related diseases, such as heart disease and cancer.” Professor Tim Spector, a co-author of the report, added, “ Although it might sound absurd(荒唐的), its possible that the same sunshine which may increase our risk of skin cancer may also have a healthy effect on the general ageing process. Vitamin D made by the action of sunlight on the skin accounts for 90 percent of the bodys supply, but lower levels can also be got through food such as fish, eggs and breakfast cereals(粥). Other studies have suggested the vitamin plays a key role in protecting against cancer and heart disease.64. A certain amount of sunshine helps people stay young because _.A. people feel happy and energetic in the sun B. sunshine protects people against heart disease C. vitamin D makes ones skin look young and healthy D. vitamin D may help to slow the ageing process65. From Brent Richards, we know that _.A. sunlight causes skin cancer to people with high level of vitamin D B. the study generally has a healthy effect on the general ageing process C. vitamin D can only be got from fish, eggs and breakfast cereals D. the higher levels of vitamin D people have, the more slowly people may age66. What can we infer from the passage?A. Telomeres are important as they are signs of ageing of the DNA. B. Sunlight can be dangerous as it causes skin cancer. C. Sunlight does more good than harm to our health. D. Vitamin D can also be gained from food.67. What is the best title of the passage? A. Secret of Staying YoungB. Vitamin D Helps Slow Ageing C. Sunlight and Vitamin DD. Sunlight and HealthC The World Health Organization estimates that more than 4 million people die each year from the effects of smoking tobacco (烟草). That number is increasing.WHO officials expect 150 million people to die from tobacco use in the next twenty years. Seven in ten of those deaths will be in developing countries. These numbers are frightening. Yet people around the world continue to smoke.It is not easy to stop smoking. However, doctors say you will live longer if you do stop smoking. You will feel better and look better. You will also protect the health of family members who breathe in your smoke.The American Cancer Society says there is not just one right way to stop smoking. It says that one methodora unit of methods may be successful. These include attending self-help programsorfollowing directions in a book. The group says any way to stop smoking that is legal, moral and effective is worth trying. This could include taking long walksorspending time in areas where smoking is not allowed. Also, you could eat a small piece of fruit instead of having a cigarette.The American Cancer Society says the sooner smokers stop smoking, the more they reduce (减少) their chances of getting cancer and other diseases. It says blood pressure returns to normal twenty minutes after a smoker smoking the last cigarette. Carbon monoxide (CO) gas levels in the blood return to normal after eight hours. In a day, the chances of a heart attack decrease. In a year, the risk of heart disease is half that of a smoker.68.

The author may hold the attitude（态度）that _.A. people can easily give up smoking B. people will feel much better after giving up smoking C. it is not necessary for people to give up smoking foreverD. it is hard to say whether it is good to give up smokingornot70.

WTO officials say that a person will live longer if he / she stops smokingB. the smoker can affect the health of hisorher family members C. following any way can help you stop smokingD. no matter how hard you try it, it is worth doing thatDFor Chinese students the end of their senior year is filled with studying and stress as they prepare for the college entrance exams in June. But for American high school seniors the experience couldnt be more different. The end of senior year is a celebration of their time in high school and involves parties, games and fun.Senioritis is a monly used expression. It means seniors have a disease which makes them unable to do work. This starts in April when seniors find out where they have been accepted to university. Unwilling to do school work, seniors have plenty of other activities to focus on. Many schools have a “Senior Show”, in which only seniors are allowed to perform. Some seniors sing or dance but many of them perform skits (滑稽短剧), where they make fun of their favorite teachers or their friends. For example, a group of boys may dress up and imitate a group of their girl friends. It is all very light-hearted.The “Senior Show” is usually a part of Senior Week, which is a week specifically dedicated (专用的) to seniors. During this week, seniors usually get academic or athletic awards they have won over their high school careers. The seniors also vote for one of their male and female classmates who they believe is the best-looking or funniest or most involved, etc. These are then published in the yearbook. The yearbook is an important part of high school for seniors. It is usually dedicated to them and has all their pictures and a quote from them in it. Then seniors go around and get it signed by their friends so they can always remember their time together. Of course during all of this time, seniors are preparing for the Senior Prom, which is an important moment in American culture. It is the most important dance in a young Americans life. The end of senior year is a truly special and wonderful time for American students. Its something they will remember for the rest of their lives.72.
