阅读理解。     There are about fifteen hundred languages in the world. But only a few of them are very important.
English is one of them. Many, many people use it, not only in England and the USA, but also in other
parts of the world. About 200,000,000 people speak it as their own language. It is difficult to say how
many people are learning it as a foreign language. Many millions of people are trying to do so. Is it easy
or difficult to learn English? Different people may have different answers. Have you ever noticed ads (广告) of this kind in the newspapers or magazines? "Learn English in six weeks, or give your money back…" "Easy and funny…"Our records and tapes help you master English in a month". Of course, it never
happened quite like that.
     The only language that seems easy to learn is the mother tongue. We should remember that we all
learned our own language well when we were children. If we could learn English in the same way, it
would not seem so difficult. Think of what a small child does. He listens to what people say. He tries
what he hears.
     So it is hard to say that learning English is easy. We must do a lot of practice. And practice needs
great efforts and takes much time. Good teachers, record, tapes, books, and dictionaries will be helpful,
but they cannot do the student"s work for him.1. How many languages are very important in the world?A. A few
B. Few
C. About 1500
D. Many2. If we want to learn English well, what shall we do?A. We should study it without any help.
B. We must do a lot of practice.
C. We need to get much money back.
D. We must live in England or America.3. How does the writer like the ads in the newspapers or magazines?A. He thinks the ads very expensive.
B. He thinks the ads are true.
C. It never happened quite like what the ads said.
D. He believes"Learn English in six weeks, or give your money back".4. Which language is easy to learn?A. English
B. Chinese
C. Japanese
D. The mother language5. Which countries use English as the mother tongue?A. China and France
B. Japan and Italy
C. England the America
D. Germany and France

举一反三

根据短文内容及首字母提示，完成文中所缺单词。   English is difficult to learn because it is so d  1   from our mother tongue (母语). On the other hand,
we haven"t got enough chance to h_2_ English spoken and speak English to foreigners.
   So the first important thing for us to do, I think, is to p_3_ speaking English more both in and out of
class. In class, I l_4_ to the teacher very attentively and try my b_5_ to answer the teacher"s questions.
After class, I listen to the tape of the texts again and again until I can u_6_ every word of it. I often retell(复述) the text in my own words. I always work h_7_ at English and never give it up.
   Of course, this is not e_ 8_. In the evening I do my homework very c_ 9__. When I find something
interesting, I write it d_10_ in English. At first, I couldn"t write well, but with the help of my teacher I

阅读理解。
     We send our children to school to prepare them for the time when they will be big and will have to
work for themselves. They learn their own language so that they will be able to tell others clearly what they
want and what they know, and understand what others tell them. They learn foreign languages in order to
be able to understand the people from other countries and make themselves understood. They learn
history to know something about human beings they meet every day. What they learn at school is, of
course, quite useful, but is that the only reason (原因) why they go to school?
     No. There is more in education than just learning facts. We go to school, above all, to learn how to
learn, so that when we have left school, we can continue to learn. A man who really knows how to learn
will always be successful, because whenever he has to do something new, he will quickly teach himself
how to do it in the best way. The uneducated person, on the other hand, is either unable to do something
new, or does it badly. So the purpose (目的) of school is not just to teach the students these useful
subjects but teach the way to learn.

阅读理解。     Basketball is a young game though it is over a hundred years old.  In the year of 1891, a certain
college was having some trouble with its boy students. The weather was bad. They had to stay indoors.
As they could not take part in their usual outdoor sports, they were unhappy, and some of them even
got into fights from time to time.  Finally, one of the teachers at the college asked Dr. Naismith to invent
a game so that the students might have something to play. It was not easy to invent a game because it had
to be played indoors, and the court was not very large.  Dr. Naismith thought for a few days and invented a kind of ball game. It was a fast, exciting game with much moving and passing of the ball. Usually two teams played the game.,  In order to make a score, the ball had to be thrown into a basket ten feet above the floor on the wall. At each end of the court there was such a basket. At first, Dr. Naismith had planned to
have the ball thrown into a box. As he could not find boxes of the right size, he had to use fruit baskets.
Dr. Naismith put two fruit baskets on the walls of both sides. There were nine plavers on each side. The
players tried to throw the ball into the baskets.  There were no holes at the bottom of the baskets.  When
a ball went into the basket, it stayed there.  The game had to stop.  A player had to climb up to get the
ball out. Later people used net baskets. Now only ten members play the game. There are five players on
each side. Basketball today is played in many countries.1. The article tells us ______.      A. what basketball is
B. how basketball was invented
C. why people like basketball
D. who played basketball2. The underlined word "indoors" means "______"    A. in the door
B. inside the room
C. in many doors
D. inside the doors3. When a student threw a ball into the basket ______            A. he made a score
B. the basket itself will be no use
C. he lost the game
D. he made a hole at the bottom of the basket4. The game got its name from ______.           A. the ball itself
B. the basket itself
C. both the basket and the ball
D. the inventor5.Which of the following is NOT false according to the passage?           A. Nine players on each side play the basketball in a match today.
