If you want to get the most out of the study of a language, you must also read for pleasure: novels, plays, travel books, and so on. And in reading books of this kind the important thing is to get on with reading; to try to grasp what the writer is going to tell you in the book as a whole. This is impossible if you stop and think over the meaning of every single word which happens to be unfamiliar. You can not enjoy a story if you stop half a dozen times on every page in order to look up words in the dictionary. You may even prevent yourself from understanding the story as a whole by doing this.

  When you are reading books of this kind, therefore, you will usually have to rely mainly on the context to help you. If you meet an unfamiliar word, do not let it take too much of your attention from the main thread(主线) of the story. In all probability you will meet the same word again a few pages later on in a slightly different context, and each time you see it that your understanding of it will become more exact.

21. The phrase “to get on with reading” in the passage has the same meaning as “_________”.

A. to try to grasp the meaning of every sentence in the book

B. to try to catch the meaning of every word in the book

C. to try to understand all the writer is going to tell you

D. to try to understand the main idea of the book

22. When you meet new words in reading such kinds of books, you’d better _________.

A. stop and look them up in a dictionary             

B. stop and think them over

C. try to guess their meanings from the context        

D. have none of them

23. From the passage the best way to read novels, plays and travel books is _____.

A. to read very slowly                   B. to read quickly and not too carefully

C. to read very carefully                    D. to read very seriously

24. The best title for this passage is “___________”.

A. Read for Pleasure                    B. Get on with the Books

C. Reading Skills                        D. The Importance of Reading

When many people in the west think of China, the animal that they think of is the dragon. For them, the dragon is an aggressive monster that breathes fire. Many popular legends tell how dragons have killed brave knights and eaten beautiful young girls.

For Chinese people, however, the dragon is not an evil monster. It’s a cultural and spiritual symbol for prosperity and good luck. The dragon’s main task is to create harmony and bring rain. Dragons are celebrated in art and architecture, and of course the dragon dance is a very popular ritual (仪式).

China isn’t the only country to have the dragon as its symbol. Wales in the UK, has a red dragon proudly displayed on its flag. Another country in the world with a dragon on its flag is Bhutan, a tiny country between China and India.

Almost all countries in the world have an animal symbol representing their countries. This is particularly obvious during sports. The English think lions to be brave and proud animal and the English football teams have three lions on their football shirts.

Australia is famous for kangaroos, of course. The national rugby team is more commonly known as the Wallabies, a type of small kangaroo. The South African team is known as the Springboks, a type of African antelope. Likewise the New Zealanders, whether playing sports or not, are commonly known as kiwis. A kiwi is a native New Zealand bird that can’t fly.

All countries are proud of their symbols, which they feel reflect national characteristics or the beauty and variety of their natural environments. Recently, a Shanghai professor claimed that using the dragon as a national symbol could make western countries have a negative view of China. But in an Internet survey 90% of Chinese people wanted to keep the dragon.

33. In the opinion of the west, the dragon is ______.

   A. a terrible animal that is not popular

   B. a cultural and spiritual symbol of good luck

   C. a reflection of China’s national characteristics

   D. an animal that can create harmony and bring rain

34. Which of the following does NOT use the dragon as its national symbol?

   A. China.         B. Wales.         C. Bhutan.         D. India.

35. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. The national rugby team from the South Africa is well known as the Wallabies.

B. The Australian team is known as Springboks, a type of kangaroo.

C. The New Zealanders are commonly known as kiwis only when playing sports.

D. The dragon is mentioned to have been used on the flag in two countries.

How to test best

It’s back to school, which means it’s back to tests, which might also means it’s back to being majorly stressed out .  36   Here are some simple ways to prepare thoroughly for tests.

l         Schedule study time. 

Trying to do all studying the night before a test makes it impossible to master all the materials.  37   Instead, prepare for a test by scheduling study time each day for several days before.

l         Use your time wisely.

  38   Also, make sure you have all the supplies(用具)you need to study so you don’t lose focus. While studying, be sure to make regular short breaks. Get a snack, take a bathroom break or play a quick computer game when it feels as if your brain is about to explode.

l           39 

Studying with a parent or friends can help you understand the material better and to learn from one another. Have every person or pair take a part of the material, and come up with questions to quiz the group. Keep the group small. Have everyone take turns as the group leader, who will assign the material, and make sure that conversation stays on what is being studied.

l         Don’t forget last-minute preparation. 

Have your sharpened pencils and other things in your bag ready the night before the test. It’s important to get a good night’s sleep and then eating a healthy breakfast the next morning.  40   Also, studying all the way up until test time can only create more anxiety. Stop studying an hour beforehand.

A. Form a study group.

B. Stay cool before the test.

C. It doesn’t have to be this way.

D. This will help you store important information.

E. This way, both your mind and body are fully prepared.

  F. Before studying , clear your desk so you can concentrate.

  G. It will also make you tired and stressed on the day of the test.
