Ⅱ.[2019·随州改编]完形填空
I went to school in China for four years and for another six years in Canada. There are two
teachers from these countries that really impressed me even though they are very 11 .
When I moved to Canada, I couldn’t even order food on the flight. After two months on an
ESL(English as a Second Language) course, I got my first report card. My mark in English was 65.
I was very 12 . I couldn’t imagine what would be said at the parent-teacher interview.
“Hello!” Mrs. Franceschini welcomed my parents. “Richard just came to Canada a few months
ago. I am amazed at how his English has 13 so fast,” she said. “On his first day, he was very
shy and only used 14 words. Now he can answer and ask questions by using whole sentences.”
15 many other Chinese parents, my mom asked if she could give me extra homework. “Don’t
worry. Richard is already working very hard,” Mrs. Franceschini laughed. Then she shook my hand.
“Richard, you did a good job. I am 16 of you!” she said.
Back in Shanghai, my teacher Miss Li was very 17 . In a test, my average(平均分) was 97,
top of the class. I was proud to take parents to the interview.
Miss Li told my parents, “Feng Yu is doing pretty well. But because of his 18 , he lost
3 points in math. Otherwise he would be the top of the school.”
I thought she was being unfair to me. But when I was about to leave, I realized Miss Li was
very nice. She hosted a party for me and gave me a big card. Her phone number and e-mail address
were on the card. “Feng Yu, you are my best student. I 19 you a successful life,” she wrote.
“If you want to talk or need any help, I am always here for you.”
Miss Li and Mrs. Franceschini are both great teachers, just in different ways. One built up
my learning abilities. 20 gave me tons of confidence and made learning enjoyable. I’m proud
to have had them as my teachers.

Ⅲ.阅读理解
People often ask me for suggestions about how to learn English. As for it, everyone is different.
I’ll share some of my experience. I once took English course for a school year in Wuhan University,
but I mostly learned English on my own.
One thing I can tell you is that once you’ve started learning, you should try to think in English
as much as you can. If you see something when you’re riding your bike or walking down the street,
just think about “How would I say them in English?” At first, it might be with simple words or
phrases, but later you should think about longer phrases and sentences. Now I’m in America, and
for most of the time, I would think in English and speak it directly. It’s amazing how much this
helps.
For several years after I started learning, I was often afraid of talking with others in English
because I didn’t want to make mistakes. Finally I got it over. And while travelling in America,
I’d try to hang out with friends who couldn’t speak Chinese, so that I’d have no choice but to
speak English. And I also decided that if I said something stupid and other people laughed at me,
then so be it. After that, my English started improving much more quickly.
Besides, it may be a good idea to ask your American friends to look at the way you’re writing,
and give you some suggestions for improvement.
21.The writer learned English in Wuhan University for about . ( )
A.a week B.a month C.a term D.a year
22.According to the writer, is a good way to improve your English. ( )

23.The underlined phrase “get it over” in Paragraph 3 means “ ” in English.
( )
A.stick to it B.depend on it C.overcome it
D.understand it
24.To the writer’s surprise, his English improved quickly . ( )
