A 世纪金榜导学号
Nowadays everyone seems to think that they know English. Many people speak it but few speak it really well. Practice is necessary in speaking English well.
Reading is also one of the things that will help you to speak English better. Read whenever you can and whatever you like! Read papers and Internet sites that you like in English every day. Then, you will see that the number of known words is increasing and you are able to speak with more skills. Then you will have made the foundations and a good basis of English. It is not good to stop or get stuck there.
Going to England or an English-speaking country is a good choice, but many people cannot afford it. If you cannot go, reading and speaking with your friends will also help you to practice your English. However, I think it is very good to visit some English-speaking country to see and test your knowledge in everyday life. You will understand the everyday usage of the language in its natural environment. There your level of English is going to improve even faster. Your ability to speak English is better. Nothing can match the excitement and happiness when a native speaker tells you that your English is very good!
Finally, in order to speak English well, you must be persistent and do it every day. It is like playing the piano. Pianists play it every day and so should you. Include English in your life and you will see where it is going. Practice, practice! Read, write and improve your language skills and you are on your way when you will be able to speak it with more and more confidence!

People from Britain and Ireland first came to live in Australia in 1788. They brought different dialects (方言)of English with them. These different kinds of English began to mix and change. The newcomers soon began to speak with their own typical accent(口音) and vocabulary. More and more people came to Australia during the Gold Rush in the 19th and 20th centuries. Some came from Britain and Ireland; others came from non-English speaking countries. Australian English continued to grow and change.
Australian English has also been influenced by American English.
During the Second World War, there were many American soldiers staying in Australia. More importantly, American television shows and music have been popular in Australia since the 1950s.
Australians use many words that other English speakers do not use. The famous Australian greeting, for example, is G’day! A native forest is called the bush and central Australia is called the outback. Many words were brought to Australia from Britain and Ireland. For example, mate means “friend”, and it is still used in Britain. Some of these words have changed in meaning. Some words have come from Australian original languages, many of which are names for animals, plants and places, like dingo and kangaroo.
Australian spelling comes from British spelling. In words like organise and realise, -ise is the expected and taught spelling method. In words like colour, favourite, -our is the normal, but nouns such as the Labor Party and Victor Harbor are spelled with -or. Program, on the other hand, is more common than programme.
There are also differences in the definition (定义)of words Australians use in different parts of the country. For example, football means “rugby” in New South Wales and Queensland, but “Australian rules football” in everywhere else in Australia. In New South Wales, a swimming costume is called a cossie or swimmers, while in Queensland it is called togs and bathers in Victoria.

Ⅱ. 阅读填句
Want to find out how you can learn a new language quickly, without the need for expensive classes or language learning software? 1 You just need to be willing to work hard and not be afraid to make mistakes. The following specific tips may help you.
2
The best way to learn a new language is to speak it. Too often, people spend all of their time studying grammar and memorizing list of words. Speaking with a real, live person will help you to feel much more motivated about learning the language than staring at a book or computer screen.
Study the language every day.
People often have claimed to have studied a language “for five years” and still not be fluent. But when they say five years, they probably mean that they studied the language for only a couple of hours a week over that entire time period. 3 —if you want to learn a new language successfully, you’re going to have to study the language every day.
Carry a dictionary at all times.
Carrying a dictionary with you will serve you a lot of time. 4 It can be an actual, physical dictionary, or a dictionary app on your
phone—you just need to be able to consult it quickly whenever you need a word.
Watch, listen, read and write in your chosen language.
Possibly the easiest thing you can do is watch television shows or movies in the language you are trying to learn. 5 Besides, download podcasts or tunes in to radio stations in your new language. This is a great way to immerse yourself in the language while you’re on the go.
A. Let’s get one thing clear.
B. There are really no secrets.
C. So get one as soon as possible!
D. Connect with a native speaker.
E. Language learning is based on repetition.
F. Carrying a dictionary will allow you to find the necessary word.
G. You should also attempt to read and write in your new language.

2. 【解析】选D。根据第二段中的The best way to learn a new language is to speak it. 和Speaking with a real, live person will help you to feel much more motivated about learning the language than staring at a book or computer screen. 可知学习一门新语言最好的方式就是和说母语的人进行交流。
3. 【解析】选A。根据上文But when they say five years, they probably mean that they studied the language for only a couple of hours a week over that entire time period. 以及下文if you want to learn a new language successfully, you’re going to have to study the language every day. 此处表示强调, “让我们弄清楚一件事”。
4. 【解析】选C。C项中的one指代上文Carrying a dictionary with you will serve you a lot of time. 中的a dictionary。
5. 【解析】选G。根据本段小标题Watch, listen, read and write in your chosen language. 可知学习语言需要看、听、读和写。上文Possibly the easiest thing you can do is watch television shows or movies in the language you are trying to learn. 提到了“看”, 从下文Besides, download podcasts or tunes in to radio stations in your new language. 中的podcasts 和 radio stations可以看出是“听”, 所以空格处应该是谈论“读和写”。
