Learning a foreign language is not a matter of reading some grammar rules or some vocabulary words—although those are important activities not to be ignored. Acquiring a language is learning a skill, not a body of information. It's much more like learning to swim or ride a bike than it is like learning about the Second World War. That is, you must not only understand the ideas and have information at hand, but also make your body accustomed to using that information in physical activity. In the case of learning a second language, the physical activity is speaking, listening, writing, and reading.
You need, then, not only to learn and understand, but also to practice! Here are a few suggestions on effective practice/study techniques. 1. Make your mouth or hand do what your mind is learning. Study out loud. Go to the lab and work with tapes. Study with a friend, practicing speaking and listening. Try to write sentences or a short paragraph using the skills you have practiced with your own lips.

cumulative. The new skills you learn build upon the old skills you learned in the past. The
more you \familiar information and skills, the better you will be able to take in
new ones.
4. Don't be afraid to make mistakes. Self-consciousness can be a strong barrier to learning a language. Perhaps part of the reason small children readily learn languages is that
they are not afraid of making mistakes.
36. The main idea of the first paragraph is______.
A. memorizing vocabulary words is necessary in language learning
B. learning to swim is quite similar to learning about the Second World War C. understanding the ideas is more important than anything else
D. language learning is a process of acquiring different language skills 37. One of the major benefits of studying with a friend is that _____________ .
A. it makes one talk and listen in a particular language
B. it builds the friendship between two friends C. friends can share tapes or other learning materials
D. one studies better with a friend
38. Cramming is not helpful in learning a language because _________.
A. it is of little use to study without a clear purpose
B. nothing can be learned through cramming
C. anything learned that way can hardly be put into use
D. one may not find enough time to use at the last minute 39. The purpose of reviewing old topics is _____________________________. A. to build up a good base for new skills B. to enjoy the good ideas contained in them C. to throw away the old, useless information D. to avoid making mistakes in the future 40.

Passage 2
In the United States 84 colleges now accept just women. Most of these colleges were established in the 19th century; they were designed to offer women the education they could not receive anywhere else. At that time major universities and colleges accepted only men. In the past 20 years many young women have chosen to study at colleges that accept both men and women. As a result some women's colleges decided to accept men students too. Others, however, refused to change. Now these schools are popular again.
The president of Trinity College in Washington, D.C. said that by the end of the 1980s women began to recognize that studying at the same school with men did not mean women were having an equal chance to learn. The president of Smith College in Massachusetts says a women's college permits women to choose classes and activities freely. For example, she says that in a women's college a higher percentage of students studies mathematics than in a college with both men and women.
Educational experts say men students in the United States usually speak in class more than women students do. In a women's college, women feel freer to say what they think. Women's schools also bring out leadership capabilities in many women. Women are represented everywhere. For example, at a women's college every governing office is held by a woman. Recent studies reportedly show that this leadership continues after college.
American women who went to women's colleges are more likely to hold successful jobs later in life.
41. Women's colleges were established to ________________. A. give women the same right of education that men enjoy B. make changes to the traditional educational system
C. defy men's privilege (特权) in society
D. train women in particular fields
42. Studying at the same school with men does not mean ________________. A. women can do the same thing as men
B. that women are given the same chance as men
C. women are allowed more freedom to develop themselves
D. the present educational system does not allow other choices
43. According to the passage, in women's schools _________________. A. women are freer than if they study at the same school with men B. women could do anything they want C. they teach things peculiar to women

D. men are openly challenged
44. Which one of the following statements is NOT true about women's college? A. Women feel freer to say what they think.
B. More women can participate in the management of the college. C. A very high percentage of women will become leaders later. D. Women are more likely to be successful in their later careers. 45. The title of this passage is most likely to be ______. A. Female Education in the United States B. Women's Schools in the United States
C. Women Should be Given the Same Education as Men D. Education in America

We Shouldn't Totally Turn to the Internet
Nowadays, Internet has become an indispensable part in our life, and we use it for various purposes, such as searching useful information and chatting online. However, now more and more people turn to the Internet for help whenever they have trouble in finding solutions to their problems, and this phenomenon has aroused the public's attention.
Relying on the Internet to solve all our difficulties can have bad impacts on us. On one
hand, since we can always settle the troubles by searching solutions online, we can become
very lazy and don't bother to think up answers by ourselves, which can hinder the development of creative thinking. On the other hand, the answers online may be inaccurate or wrong. If we use them without thinking the credibility of them, we may make serious mistakes someday.
