The purpose of students who come to school is to study. But studying needs right ways,
or we would waste the time or the money. The followings are ways for studying. The best
time for reading is morning. Because in the morning, the air is fresh and our minds are
clear. For that reason, we can get good results. When we study we must be patient. If we
don't understand a text well, we must read it again. We should not read the next until we
have learned the first one well. When we are studying, we must put our hearts into the book.
We cannot read absent¬mindedly (心不在焉地), or we could get nothing from the book while
we are reading. We must always ask “why”.If we can't understand well, write it down and
ask our teachers or parents, brothers or friends, in any possible ways. We must know it
completely and then our knowledge can be used well. Though there are many ways for studying,
however, the above mentioned (提到的) will be helpful if we can keep them in heart.

Most dictionaries will tell you a number of things about a language. There are three
important things. These three things are spelling, pronunciation and meanings.
First, a dictionary will tell you the spelling of a world. If you are not sure about
the spelling of a word, you can try to find the correct spelling in a dictionary. Words
are listed in alphabetical order—a,b,c and so on. For example, on a dictionary page the
word “poor”—p,o,o,r – comes before “poverty”—p,o,v,e,r,t,y—and the word
“poverty” comes before “ power”—p,o,w,e,r. The words are always given in an alphabtical
order.
The second thing, a dictionary will tell you pronunciation. Most give phonetic, or
sound, alphabet. The phonetic spelling will tell you how a word is pronounced. There are
a few different phonetic alphabets. Many dictionaries use the International Phonetic
Alphabet to show pronunciation.
The third thing, a dictionary will tell you the meaning of words. You can look up a
word and find out what it means. Many words have more than one meaning, and a good dictionary
will tell you all of the word’s meaning. For example, in English the common word “get”
has over 20 different meanings.
( )51.In the passage, which of the following is among the three important things?
A. How to write a word well. B. How to use a word.
C. How to make a sentence. D. How to read a word correctly.
( )52.Of the three words: “remove”, “ remote” and “ remount”, _____ in a
dictionary.8
A. “remote” comes first and “remove” comes last.
B. “remove” comes first and “ remote” comes last.
C. “remote” comes first and “remount” comes last.
D, “remove” comes first and “remount” comes last.
( )53.Many words have_______.
A. several meanings B. few meanings
C. one meaning D. no meaning
( )54.A better dictionary can tell you _______.
A. more of the word’s pronunciation.
B. More of the word’s meaning.
C. More of the word’s spelling.
D. More of grammar.
( )55.Phonetic alphabets are used to show _______.
