Baicizhan

First of all, the app tells you how many English words you need to learn every day. That’s not all. It can also be very fun. The learning process is like playing a guessing game. Instead of just showing the Chinese and English meanings of a new word, the app asks you to first choose the correct picture from four, according to an English description. And then, you can practice remembering the new word in other ways.

Douban FM

A digital (数字的) radio app like Douban FM might be the right music app for you. Without a play list, you will never know what the next song is. Songs just keep playing one by one. You can use the “heart”, “trash” and “skip” buttons (按钮) to mark the songs you like, don’t like, and want to cut short. Those marked with a heart will be kept in another list as your favorites for you to enjoy again at any time you want.

Moment Camera

App stores have too many camera apps with filters(滤镜). They are all designed to make your smart phone camera better. But which one gives you the best influence Moment Camera. Many people like this app because of its sequence shots (连拍) and different-sized frames (边框) for photos. But the best thing about the app is not what it does, but what it leaves out. It is simple, clean, and easy to use.

Flipboard

It is one of the hottest news apps right now. But the difference with Flipboard is that you can make everything personal to you. Open up the app, choose whatever interests you, and click the “+” button. In the end you’ll have your own magazine with news, articles, and information. So unlike the boring magazines you read in the past, you can be sure that every page of this one will interest you.

If you are one of those who want to know how to increase your vocabulary, there are some ways you may find useful. In fact, it is not that difficult to learn new words, but to remember them for a lifetime seems not to be so easy.

To make it easier, you can try word associations（联想）. Try to find a connection between a new word and things or people you know. For example, if your neighbour is an unselfish person who cares about the needs of other people, think about this person every time you see the word, and very soon you'll start actively using it.

Try to use the words you learn as often as possible. Perhaps you are not sure which situations they should be used in, or whether you pronounce（发音） them correctly, but practice is the best way to understand that. It is not enough to find out the meaning of a word. You should hammer (敲打) it into your mind by using it in actual conversations in everyday life.

Also, it may be helpful to know the meaning of the word roots, prefixes (前缀) and suffixes　 （后缀）， especially if they have a Greek or Latin origin（起源）． Even if you meet a long unfamiliar word, it will be easy to know its meaning if you know the general meaning of its parts.　 For example, if you see the word "philanthropy", it won't be difficult to surmise what it means if you know that "anthropo" means "human" and "philo" means "loving". Not only can ancient Greek and Latin be helpful, but a number of modern languages as well. So, if you speak French,　 Italian, Spanish or Portuguese, guess the meaning of an unfamiliar English word if it sounds like　 a word from another language you know.

1. Which of the following old sayings can show the main idea of Paragraph 3?

A. Every dog has his day.

B. Practice makes perfect.

C. Every coin has two sides.

D. Where there is a will there is a way.

2. According to the last paragraph, what does the writer think is important?

A. Learning to use several different modern languages.

B. Learning some very difficult words in the English language.

C. Knowing the meaning of the word roots, prefixes and suffixes.

D. paying more attention to words that have a Greek or Latin origin.

3.The underlined word "surmise" in the last paragraph means_______.

A. guess　　         B. suggest　　

C. prove　　     　　 D. remember

4. what's the writer's purpose in writing the passage?

A. To tell us how he or she learnt English well.

B. To explain why it is not hard to learn new words.

C. To prove that learning new words can be really fun.

D. To tell us some good ways of remembering new words.

If you want to know which social app Chinese young people use a lot now, you had better not miss “short videos”. Some users use apps like Tik Tok (抖音) and Kuaishou because they think it is fun to share short videos about their lives, while others have different purposes as well.

As some videos are about the latest news, a group of users depend on them to get information. To some other users, they have a different purpose. “Because I can’t spend many hours watching a complete video and I am a very impatient person. I don’t like waiting for a program to end. I prefer to watch short videos of wonderful parts in a concert or a TV series,” said Wang Zhihao.

However, some young Chinese feel bored with some short videos. “Killing time is the main reason for me to watch the short videos, but many are almost the same, so I think it is a waste of time. Moreover, I really don’t like the videos which show strange even dangerous things,” said Wen Nan, another college student.

Recently, something else has happened. Some videos are telling people what products are worth buying. Some users buy the products after watching, but they should think twice.

Do you like listening to music? Do you often turn up the music when you’re using earphones? If so, your hearing may have been damaged(损坏).

The World Health Organization (WHO) is worried that 1.1 billion children and young people are damaging their hearing by listening to loud music. Nearly half the young people in developed countries may lose their hearing because of the "unsafe use" of music players, including smartphones. Loud music in nightclubs, parties and at sports also make it worse. The WHO advises young people to listen to music for just one hour a day. Dr. Etienne Krug told BBC: "What we're trying to do is to draw people's attention to a problem that is not talked about enough." He said it's easy to solve this problem.

Dr. Krug said keeping the music down and limiting (限制) the listening time to less than one hour a day would save a lot of people's hearing. However, he also said, "Even an hour can be too much if the music is too loud.” Ralph Holme, a researcher, explained how loud noise can damage ears. He said: "Loud sounds damage your hearing by killing off thousands of little hair cells(细胞) in the inner ear. The cells can tell different sounds through vibration(振动). But they are very fragile — they get damaged easily and even die if they vibrate too much because of loud sounds for too long.” He warned: "The bigger problem is they don't grow back and the ear can no longer get sound."

No one wants to lose their hearing! Therefore, next time when you listen to music, make sure it's not too loud and only listen for less than an hour. You can enjoy your music much better in this way.

1.How are the children and young people damaging their hearing?.

A．By using smartphones.

B．By going to the party.

C．By listening to loud music.

D．By talking with friends.

2.How long does WHO advise young people to listen to music a day?

A．For a long time. 　　 　　 B.　 For just one hour.

C．For half of the day.　　 D.　 For more than one hour.

3.What does the word “fragile” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

A. weak.　　　 B．clever.　　　　 C．small.　　　　　 D. strong.

4.From the passage we can learn that __________.

A．keeping the music down would save young people's hearing

B．the damaged cells can grow back and the ear can get sound

C．young people lose their hearing because of going to the nightclubs

D．the problem of young people's hearing damage is talked about enough
