Your problem，SJ，is not just that you miss your best friend，it is that you feel empty and lost without her friendship. It takes time to get over a loss，and during that time，your mind is getting used to a new way of being. This is usually a good thing，even if it feels like a bad thing. Now that you are on your own，you are being forced to learn to be by yourself and to rely upon your own inner voice for guidance. I am sure that this feel is strange for you，but if you can hang on for a bit，it may work to your advantage. Best friends are cool， but it is important to know the difference between missing someone and being too dependent upon them. At your age，girls do tend to stick together(彼此友好) and having a boy friend may not yet be the better choice. Your friend is a little ahead of herself in leaving you，her best friend，for a boyfriend. Boyfriends are completely different from best friends;the difference being that boyfriends come and go，while girl friends often stay in your life throughout high school，and even afterwards. It is a completely different sort of relationship. I suggest that you take advantage of this period in your life to broaden your horizons. Enjoy the freedom of having no best friend for a while，and hang with the group. By the time your former best friend breaks up with her boyfriend，you will be in a completely different place，a far better place;in your head that is. And，by the way，next time that you feel empty and lost，try to write about it in a diary or just simply on paper. In several months，you will look back and read it with curiosity about yourself. “Who was I then，and what could I have been thinking?” 51. Judging from the letter，SJ's problem was that she didn't know . A. whether to give up her best friend B. what to do without her best friend C. who to choose between two friends D. how to stop missing her former friend 52. When the writer said “your friend is a little ahead of herself”, she/he meant SJ's friend . A. was acting without thinking B. was doing something she might regret later C. was too young to fall in love D. was unwise to leave SJ so soon 53.The writer believed SJ would by the time her former friend lost her boyfriend. A. grow physically stronger B. do better at school C. feel more independent and confident D. win her best friend back 54.The last paragraph seems to suggest that . A. keeping a diary helps correct oneself B.SJ will get over her problem soon C. unhappy experiences are easy to forget D. one shouldn't forget the past experiences B Although many Chinese students say that their knowledge of English grammar is good, most would admit that their spoken English is poor. Whenever I speak to a Chinese student they always say, “My spoken English is poor.” However, their spoken English does not have to remain “poor” ! I would like to suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English. First, they fail to find suitable words to express themselves due to a limited vocabulary. Obviously the better answer is to expand their vocabulary. However, you can speak with a limited vocabulary, if your attitude is positive. Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know. Second, they are afraid of making mistakes. Sometimes, they make mistakes when they are speaking because they are shy and nervous. Yet students should remember that their goal should be FLUENCY NOT ACCURACY. Your aim in writing is to be accurate following the rules for grammar and using the right words and spelling them correctly. However, in speaking your aim is fluency. You want to make youreself understood, to talk to someone in English, as quickly and as well as you can, even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense, but it doesn’t matter because the person you are speaking to will understand you and make allowances for any mistakes he hears. The third reason is that not enough attention is paid to listening. You have one mouth but two ears! All that hearing was necessary for you to start speaking. Fourth, most Chinese students are reactive rather than proactive(积极的) language learners. Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to improve their spoken English they passively wait for speaking opportunities to come to them and wonder why their English always remains poor. If you have this proactive outlook, then you will see English opportunities wherever you go. If you do not use your English beyond the classroom you will forget what English you know. Remember: USE IT OR LOSE IT! You can learn how to speak English better by speaking English more. 55. What is most probably the writer’s purpose in writing the passage? A.To improve your written English. B.To improve your listening. C.To improve your spoken English. D.To improve your vocabulary. 56. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that . A.don’t be fluency. Just be accuracy B.don’t be nervous, don’t be shy .Just write! C.don’t be afraid of making mistakes .Just speak! D.don’t be shy, don’t be fluency. Just listen and write! 57. The main idea of the last paragraph is possibly close to the meaning of “ ”. A.haste(匆忙n.) makes waste B.better late than never C.Pride goes before a fall D.practice makes perfect 58. The text is most probably taken from a . A.teacher’s diary B.report on study C.sports newspaper D.movie magazine C When I opened my e-mail the other day, a pretty woman named Rachel appeared on my computer screen.She greeted me by name and started talking with great enthusiasm. Every now and then she stopped to smile at me or blow a kiss.She was reading a e-mail from my brother,and a lot of it was about his getting the phone company to give a high-speed Internet connection. It was pretty cool. (责任编辑：admin) |
