In order to know a foreign language thoroughly, four things are necessary. First, we must understand the
language when we hear it spoken. Secondly, we must be able to speak it ourselves, correctly with confidence and without hesitation. Thirdly, we must be able to write it. Finally, we must be able to make sentences that are correct in grammar.
There is no short way to succeed in language learning. A good memory is a great help, but it is not enough only to memorize the rules from a grammar book. It is no much use learning by heart long lists of words and their meanings, studying the dictionary and so on. We must learn by using the language. If we are pleased with a few rules we have memorized, we are not really learning the language. We must “Learn through use”. Practice is important. We must practise speaking and writing the language whenever we can.
45. The most important things to learn a foreign language are________.
A. hearing, speaking, reading and writing B. understanding, memorizing and using
C. understanding, speaking and practicing D. memorizing and listening
46. Someone hears and writes English very well, but he speaks it badly. This is because ______.
A. he doesn’t have a good memory
B. he often hesitates to practise speaking it
C. he doesn’t practise speaking it as much as he can
D. he doesn’t understand the language when he hears it spoken
47. One can never learn a foreign language well only by______.
A. much practice B. studying the dictionary
C. learning through use D. using the language
48. “Learn through use” means______.
A. we use a language in order to learn it B. we learn a foreign language in order to use it
C. we can learn a language well while we are using it D. both B and C
C
A doctor entered the hospital hurriedly after being called in for an important surgery (外科手术). He found the boy’s father in the hall waiting worriedly.
On seeing him, the father cried out, “Why did you take all this time to come? Don’t you know that my son is in danger? Don’t you have any sense of duty?”
The doctor smiled and said, “I’m sorry. I wasn’t in the hospital and I came as fast as I could after receiving the call and now, I wish you’d calm down so that I can do my work.”
“Calm down?! What if your son was in this room right now? Would you calm down? If your own son dies while waiting for a doctor, then what will you do?” said the father angrily. The doctor smiled again and replied, “We will do our best and you should also pray（祈祷）for your son’s healthy life.”
The surgery took some hours after which the doctor went out happily, “Thank goodness! You son is
saved!” And without waiting for the father’s reply, he carried on his way running by saying, “If you have
any questions, ask the nurse.”
“Couldn’t he wait some minutes so that I can ask my son’s state?” shouted the father when seeing the nurse
minutes after the doctor left.
The nurse answered, tears coming down her face. “His son died yesterday in a road accident. He was at
the burial(葬礼) when we called him for your son’s surgery. And now that he saved your son’s life, he left
running to finish his son’s burial.”

Andrew Holleman, a 12-year-old boy, loved playing in the open land near his home. The land was wet and forested, and made a home for birds, other animals and many different plants.
It made the perfect place for him to study and get to know the nature. He had seen some red-tail hawks, red foxes, wood turtles and other animals. He also found special native flowers.
Suddenly it was announced that the “empty” land would be improved by a lot of houses on it. The plants would be removed, the animals would run away and most would probably die. Then the wet soil would be covered with extra grounds.
When he heard about the news, he was not happy. He was very worried that the land and water would be polluted.
Andrew wrote down clearly all the research he had down about the area, and how the houses would affect the local environment. He sent letters to members of local government and television reporters. He also called on his neighbors to oppose the building of the houses.
Although he was only 12 years old, he had the courage and wisdom of a person much older. Andrew’s teachers described him as gentle, shy and active. His classmates also admired how much he knew about local animals and plants, and the environment. Each day after school, Andrew went door-to-door, to ask the people to sign, who did not want the houses to be built. In only one month, he got the signatures of 250 people.
In the end, the land remained a safe place for birds, animals and plants that belonged there.
Andrew won many prizes for his brave and great work to stop the houses being built, and thus help save the environment.
53. The underlined word “oppose” in the passage probably means______________ .
A. disagree B. support C. dislike D. prefer
54. Andrew was very worried because ______________ .
A. the animals would be killed
B. not all the neighbors were going to sign
C. new houses would be built on the open land
D. the local government made a right decision
55. What can we learn from the passage?
A. 250 people who signed to help Andrew.
B. the research of improving the environment.
C. the open land that suited animals and plants.
D. a brave boy who cared for the environment.

France is well known for its fine art, tasty food and romantic scenery（风景）. About 75 million visitors come here every year.
France is the largest country in Western Europe. It has a population of over 66 million. The country is home to many famous places of interest, like the River Seine as well as the Eiffel Tower.
Many visitors also come for the country’s art. Sculptor（雕刻家）Auguste Rodin and painter Claude Monet once created their great works here. If you visit France today, it is not a surprise to meet street artists in the city or come across a singer in the subway.
No visit to Paris is complete without a trip to Louvre, one of the largest and most famous museums in the world. Inside, there are 35,000 works of art, such as the painting Mona Lisa by Da Vinci and the statue（雕塑）David by Michelangelo. It would take nine months to enjoy all the pieces.
Besides, French food is world famous. Bread is very important in France. The best known French bread is called a baguette（法棍面包）. They are long, delicious and taste salty. Snails （蜗牛）are also a must-have here. French people eat 40,000 tons of snails every year!
But France is not always good. Paris, the city of light, may also show its dark side to visitors. Chinese visitors feel sorry about the crowded subway in Paris.
61．How many visitors come to France every year?
62．Is it common to meet street artists in the city?
63．Who created the famous painting Mona Lisa?
