Many old words 22 in England but were kept in America.For example,300 years ago people in Great Britain got their water from something they 23 either a“faucet”,“spigot”,or a“tap”.All these words are still heard in different parts of America,but only “tap”is still common in England.Americans often make up new words or change old ones.“Corn”is one kind of plant in America and another in England.
Also,over the last three centuries the English language has 24 thousands of new words for things that weren’t 25 before.And often,American and English people used two different names for them.A tin can is called“tin”for short in English,but a “can”in America.The word “radio”is 26 all over the world,including America.But many English people call it a “wireless”.And almost anything 27 something to do with cars,railroads,etc.has different 28 in British and American English.
But now American and British English may be 29 closer together.One thing is that British people can hear a large amount of American speech daily in 30 ,on television,or from travelers.Because of this,Americans seem to be influencing the British more and more.So some day,English may even be the same on both sides of the Atlantic.

In order to know a foreign language thoroughly(完全地), 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(自信) and without hesitation(犹豫). Thirdly, we must be able to write it. 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(记忆) 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(一览表) 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(无论何时) we can.
41.The most important things to learn a foreign language are __________.
A.understanding and speaking
B.hearing, speaking, reading and writing
C.writing and understanding
D.memorizing and listening
【解析】 学习一门外语最重要的是听、说、读、写四种技能，A、C、D三项都不够全面。

D.he often hesitates to practise speaking it
【答案】 D
43.One can never learn a foreign language well only by __________.

· A measure declaring English the national language is under intense debate in the United States. The US Senate passed two declarations last week. One calls English the nation’s official language and the other says it is the “common and unifying(统一的)”tongue. But Americans found themselves divided on the issue.Since people worldwide know that most Americans speak only English, many can’t understand why the issue is so controversial(有争议的). “The discussion is related to fears of immigration issues,” says Dick Tucker, a social scientist at Pittsburgh’s Carnegie Mellon University. “It’s related to a worry about the changing demography(人口统计)of the US. It’s a worry about who will continue to have political and economic influence.” In fact, the notion of protecting the language has been kicked around almost since the nation’s founding. John Adams lobbied(游说)in 1780 for the creation of a national academy to correct and improve the English language. But his proposal died, since lawmakers saw it as a royalist(保皇主义者)attempt to define personal behavior. Since then, the country hasn’t had a national language, but the idea of recognizing the special status of English lived on.The emotions surrounding language resurface(再次浮现)not because people feel comfortable with English. It is more about the discomfort many Americans feel with the new languages, says Walt Wolfram, a professor at North Carolina State University.“Language is never about language,” he says. According to the 2000 US Census Bureau report, of 209 million Americans over 18 years old,172 million speak only English at home. About 37 million speak languages other than English. Among them,6.5 million speak poor English and 3.1 million don’t speak English at all.46. What are the two declarations concerned with?A. The status of the English language.B. The protection of new languages.C. The rights to speak one’s mother tongue.D. The improvement of the English language.
47. Who suggested in the 18th century that English should be protected?A. Walt Wolfram.B. John Adams.C. Royalists.D. Dick Tucker.
48. Which of the following is the current debate NOT related to?A. The immigration issues.B. The changing demography.C. The worry about the new languages.D. The US’s military strength.
49. Which statement is true according to the 2000 US Census Bureau report?A. 172 million Americans speak only English in their work places.B. 37 million Americans speak English.C. 209 million Americans are above the age of 18.D. 6.5 million Americans speak good English.
50. The phrase “kicked around”(paragraph 4)could be best replaced byA. “invented”.B. “formed”.C. “shaped”.D. “discussed”.

For several days I saw little of Mr. Rochester. In the morning he seemed very busy with business，and in the afternoon gentlemen from the neighborhood called and sometimes stayed to dine with him. When his foot was well enough，he rode out a great deal.
During this time，all my knowledge of him was limited to occasional meetings about the house，when he would sometimes pass me coldly， and sometimes bow and smile. His changes of manner did not offend me, because I saw that I had nothing to do with the cause of them.
One evening，several days later，I was invited to talk to Mr. Rochester after dinner. He was sitting in his armchair，and looked not quite so severe，and much less gloomy. There was a smile on his lips, and his eyes were bright，probably with wine. As I was looking at him，he suddenly turned, and asked me，“Do you think I am handsome，Miss Eyre? ”
The answer somehow slipped from my tongue before I realized it: “No，sir.” “Ah，you really are unusual! You are a quiet， serious little person， but you can be almost rude.” “Sir，I'm sorry. I should have said that beauty doesn't matter，or something like that,” “No，you shouldn't! I see，you criticize my appearance，and then you stab (刺) me in the back! You have honesty and feeling. There are not many girls like you. But perhaps I go too fast. Perhaps you have awful faults to counterbalance (抵消) your few good points.”
I thought to myself that he might have too. He seemed to read my mind，and said quickly，“Yes，you're right. I have plenty of faults. I went the wrong way when I was twenty-one，and have never found the right path again. I might have been very different. I might have been as good as you, and perhaps wiser. I am not a bad man，take my word for it，but I have done wrong. It wasn't my character，but circumstances which were to blame. Why do I tell you all this? Because you're the sort of person people tell their problems and secrets to, because you're sympathetic and give them hope.”
It seemed he had quite a lot to talk to me. He didn't seem to like to finish the talk quickly，as was the case for the first time.
“Don't be afraid of me， Miss. Eyre，”he continued. “You don't relax or laugh very much，perhaps because of the effect Lowood school has had on you. But in time you will be more natural with me，and laugh， and speak freely. You're like a bird in a cage. When you get out of the cage, you'll fly very high. Good night.”
51. At the beginning Miss Eyre's impressions of Mr. Rochester were all except_____.
A. busy B. sociable C. dull D. changeable
52. The underlined sentence means_________ .
A. Only by meeting him around the house sometimes did I know a little about him.
B. Only by coming to the house could I know about him.
C. I occasionally met him but my knowledge about him was poor.
D. What I knew about him was limited in the house.
53. From what Mr. Rochester told Miss Eyre, we can conclude that he wanted to _________________. .
A. tell her all his troubles B. tell her his life experience
C. blame her for misunderstanding him D. change his circumstances
54. At the end of the passage，Mr. Rochester sounded ___________ .
A. rude B. cold C. polite D. encouraging
55. According to the passage, which of the following statements is WRONG?
A. Miss Eyre was at Lowood School before she came to Mr. Rochester’s house.
B. Miss Eyre didn’t see Mr. Rochester often.
C. Miss Eyre was honest, brave and confident.
D. Miss Eyre was brave, polite and warm-hearted.

The diagram\table shows us the comparison of English materials purchase made by the senior students in our school in the early 1990s and in 2008. In 2008 there are more new choices for students, like Internet(10%) and CD\DVD(30%). In the early 1990s there were only tapes(33%)and reference books(67%). At the same time, the average expenditure on English materials have increased from 60 yuan in the early 1990s to 170 yuan in 2008. From these, we learn that there are more choices of materials on English learning and students spend more money on it.

阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。
I found that my way of learning English that I formed from middle school still works today. By listening to tapes and imitating the speakers one can improve his pronunciation within a short time. By reciting classic essays one can enrich their language as well as enlarge their vocabulary. As a non-English major， I like to set aside a certain period of time for English learning everyday， usually an hour or at least half an hour. I utilize this precious time by listening to tapes and imitating their content and then reciting the short passages I like. To be frank， “Crazy English” has always been my favorite. This is definitely not intended to flatter. Instead of dividing my attention between too many materials， I’d rather concentrate on one particular resource at a time such as CE， not only because of its abundant content and native English， but also because of the benefits it has brought to me through intensive reading， listening and reciting， I believe that studying English by using these intensive methods will help you to get twice the result with half the effort.

参考答案：
The author shares his/her sucessful experience of learning English. The method inculdes listening to tapes and imitating the speakers, reciting classic essays and choosing proper learning materials such as Crazy English.
From my point of view, if you are not motivated to learn English you will become frustrated and give up, so firstly you must know why you learn English. And secondly remember that learning a language is a gradual process - it does not happen overnight. You must be patient with yourself.What’s more important, make learning a habit. That is ,try to learn something every day. It is much better to study (or read, or listen to English news, etc.) 10 minutes each day than to study for 2 hours once a week. At last, Use the Internet properly. The Internet is the most exciting, unlimited English resource that anyone could imagine and it is right at your finger tips.
If you can stick to it, I’m sure you’ll be a successful English learner.
