There are many useful suggestions and pieces of advice that can help one to improve English. Here are some useful suggestions and new tips to increase one’s English language vocabulary.

Learning English vocabulary is about much more than just learning the right words. A broad grasp of vocabulary in the English language is based on understanding important expressions.

Learning a word will not help very much if you quickly forget it. Research shows that it takes from 10 to 20 repetitions to really make a word part of your vocabulary. Since most words are learned from how they are used in context, the more words one is shown, the better vocabulary one will have. Keep a piece of paper close to you. When you read, pay more attention to the word you do not know, write the word down and try to figure out its meaning from the context. Then look up the word in a dictionary.

Remember that if you do not use English words that you have just learned in conversation or writing, you will forget them very quickly. So the best way to learn new words effectively is just by trying to use them in conversation and writing. Remember also that practice is the key to fluent spoken English.

Building vocabulary is a life-long task. Remember, “In the beginning was the word.” Your future could depend on how rich your vocabulary is. It will also determine the quality of your communication.

1.We can learn from the passage that learning English vocabulary　　　　　 .

A.is just about learning the right words

Is there a “success personality”—some winning combination of qualities that leads almost essentially to achievement? If so, exactly what is that secret success formula (公式), and can anyone develop it?

At the Gallop Organization we recently focused in depth on success, digging into the attitudes of 1500 brilliant people selected at random (随机) from Who’s Who in America. Our research finds out a number of qualities that occur regularly among top achievers. Here is one of the most important, that is, common sense.

Common sense is the most popular quality shared by the top achievers. Seventy-nine percent award themselves a top score in this quality. And 61 percent say that common sense was very important in contributing to their success.

To most, common sense means the ability to present sound, practical judgments on everyday affairs. To do this, one has to sweep aside extra ideas and get right to the heart of what matters. A Texas oil and gas businessman puts it this way: “The key ability for success is simplifying. In conduction of meeting and dealing with industry, reducing a complex problem to the simplest term is highly important.”

Is common sense a quality a person is born with, or can you do something to increase it? The oil man’s answer is that common sense can definitely be developed. He attributes (归咎) his to learning how to debate in school. Another way to increase your store of common sense is to observe it in others, learning from their and your own mistakes.

Besides common sense, there are many other factors that influence success: knowing your field, self-reliance, intelligence, the ability to get things done, leadership, creativity, relationships with others, and of course, luck. But common sense stands out. If you develop these qualities, you’ll succeed. And you might even find yourself listed in Who’s Who someday.

1.Roughly how many people in the survey listed common sense as the most important quality?

A.80. B.60. C.1200. D.900.

2.In paragraph 4, the example of the oil and gas businessman is used to prove_______.

A.common sense can be judged B.common sense means simplifying

C.common sense can be developed D.common sense is quite complex

3.What do we know about common sense?

A.It’s rooted in common people. B.It is a side effect of mistakes.

C.It is taught by our parents. D.It can be trained by ourselves.

4.What is the best title of the passage?

A.Common Sense B.The Success Personality

C.Personal Qualities D.A Popular Formula

Opera for Beginners

Many people think that opera is boring, difficult to understand and unpleasant to listen to. They only see strange people singing in a foreign language and wearing funny costumes. They're too quick to judge and a lot of people have believed stupid ideas about opera without ever actually seeing one. If one takes opera seriously, with an open heart, and goes to several good live performances, I don't see any reason why he or she would dislike or hate it. The following tips can help you learn to enjoy opera.

First of all, if you are new to opera, start with a short, well-known title, such as The Marriage of Figaro by Mozart. In the beginning, avoid difficult operas with complex storylines. If your first experience is not fun, then you will expect all operas to be boring. Moreover, before going to a performance, do a little bit of homework: learn the story of the opera. If you know about the main characters and the story before you start watching, it will be much easier to understand what is happening on the stage. Finally, the most important way to enjoy opera is to keep an open mind. If you believe that you will enjoy watching opera, then you will most likely enjoy it. Think of opera as a live TV show. Opera shows the same things—love and hate, good and evil and humans and nature—that are found in many of today's popular movies and best-selling novels. In fact, many of these movies and novels use stories copied from famous operas!

Opera is full of catchy, wonderful melodies （旋律）. It's full of drama and laughter. It's full of wonder and life. Opera can be fun to watch, and it allows the audience to experience different cultures. Many people have enjoyed it for hundreds of years, and by following the tips above, you can enjoy it, too. Indeed, opera will change the minds of the people who once hated it. And most importantly, as one of the most diverse art forms out there, opera helps you appreciate different performance styles from all over the world.

1.Many people think that opera is boring because ______.

A.it is like a TV show B.they know little about it

C.they dislike its storylines D.its music style is old-fashioned

2.Which is a good way for beginners to enjoy opera?

A.To start with a long opera. B.To learn to sing an opera.

C.To master a foreign language. D.To get familiar with an opera's story.

3.Many famous operas, popular movies, and best-selling novels ______.

A.have the same writer B.share a similar story

C.teach people about lifestyles D.help people keep an open mind

4.What does the underlined word “diverse” in the last paragraph probably mean?

A.Various. B.Humorous. C.Ancient. D.Exciting.

“Sorry seems to be the hardest word” - that is one of Elton John’s most popular songs.

But not every public figure seems to find it so tough to say that powerful five- letter word.

In recent days public figures, from politicians to stars, have all publicly expressed remorse. But with so much remorse, how can we tell a forced apology from a heartfelt expression of remorse?

Specifically, saying sorry should be a realization that something you have said or done has hurt someone and you want to make amends ( 弥 补 ). “People want the response to be personal to them. They want to feel that they’re being listened to and taken seriously,” says Martin Stone.

Firstly, it is important to show that you understand. It is vital that any group or person making an apology understand the focus - is it sorry for the way it’s acted or is it sorry that the complainant feels the way they do?

Watch out for the speed of response. The quicker the apology comes, the better it indicates that the person making it has felt an immediate sense of guilt.

If sincere, the person making the apology will be looking for clues (线索) to see if he or she is being understood, such as eye contact and facial expressions. Performed apologies always have a sense of being “acted out”, and are often accompanied by too many unnatural gestures.

For a sincere apology, it is also important to avoid promises that can’t be kept. Don’t say that you’ll make sure that this will not happen again if you’re not confident that it won’t. It could come back to bite you. And do remember that the use of “but” can hugely change the tone ( 语 气 ) of an apology. As Stone points out, “I’m sorry but …” sounds like you are making excuses and aren’t actually taking any form of responsibility.

1.What is the purpose of the text?

A.To teach us how to tell if an apology is sincere.

B.To discuss how to give a formal apology.

C.To show why we should apologize in life.

D.To explain what a good apology is.

2.What does the underlined word “remorse” probably mean?

A.Pain B.Regret C.Worry D.Doubt

3.Which of the following indicates it’s a “performed” apology?

A.Promising it won’t happen again.

B.Paying attention to the listener’s reaction.

C.Showing you understand his/her feelings.

D.Avoiding eye contact with the listener.

4.What is mainly talked about in the last paragraph?

A.The attitude B.The tone of voice

C.The choice of language D.The body language

One of the most popular street food found in China is no doubt the barbecue. A new program, called Chinese Barbecue, tells the story of this popular food cooked over hot coals on just about every street corner in cities and towns across the country. Barbecued meat is an important part of people’s nightlife.

Shown on June 20, the program has had more than 25 million clicks on the video site bilibili.com. To find the most popular barbecue stalls (摊位), the production team travelled to more than 500 locations in 30 cities across the country. Some viewers compare Chinese Barbecue to Midnight Diner, a Japanese TV program telling stories from late night informal Japanese bars.

“I’m happy to hear this comparison because Midnight Diner is a good program, and we share the same topic― night food,” Chinese Barbecue’s director Chen Yingjie said. “However, they are quite different.” He said that Midnight Diner focused more on food itself, though there was some conversation while people were eating. However, the night food scene of Chinese people means joy and a more lively atmosphere. People eating these barbecue snacks develop a feeling of connection, which can be a cure for loneliness.

The barbecue, regarded as the most ordinary and common night street snack, is different from home-made food by mothers as that is a symbol of family and kinship. The barbecue is where you go to become connected to people in society. And unlike official business lunches, during which people are rather polite, the barbecue lets people relax with old friends and new friends, leaving a lasting impression of friendship.

The world, as a whole, holds deep-rooted good feelings toward the barbecue, either for the taste or the warmth produced by fire. “What we should do is to present the Chinese barbecue just the way it is because with its special ingredients(食材)，ways of cooking and more importantly, the special environment and people, the world will recognize it and might fall in love with it just as we do.” said Chen.

1.What do we know about Chinese Barbecue?

A.It has been becoming very popular on the Internet.

B.It is thought highly of by most of the foreign tourists.

C.It mainly talks about the most famous Chinese food.

D.It shows the colorful nightlife in large cities of China.

2.In which way was Chinese Barbecue different from Midnight Diner?

A.It showed more kinds of food. B.It focused more on the diners.

C.It showed the eating habits. D.It was less popular than Midnight Diner.

3.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?

A.The importance of the barbecue to family. B.The influence of the barbecue on people’s manners.

C.The influence of the barbecue on people’s lifestyle. D.The role of the barbecue in people’s relationship.

4.Why did Chen Yingjie choose the barbecue as the topic of the series?

A.To show the feature of Chinese food. B.To research a special way of cooking.

C.To help the world understand China. D.To introduce the history of the barbecue.

If you have traveled a lot before, you might know that there are huge differences in communication between people from one country to another. In some cultures, people are loud, direct and even stop others speaking during a conversation. In others, people are usually soft-spoken, use flowery or indirect language and wait patiently for others to finish their talk.

During a business meeting, these differences are likely to come out. Try to get used to the way your business partners communicate, e. g. When calling and greeting your business partners and your boss, always use their last names and titles unless you are invited to do otherwise.

Hierarchies（等级制度）may have a great influence on the communication style in your new environment, so it is important to keep an eye on this. In some cultures, the elder business partner may be the one who is making the decisions at a meeting. Failing to know their identities within the company or to greet them with respect can leave a bad impression.

Generally speaking, well-dressed and arriving at a business meeting well-prepared are two very useful parts for your success in international business. Whether you are in France or in China, your business partners will appreciate your efforts to make a good impression.

Cultural differences also become obvious in different understanding of time. A popular example: Everyone would agree that Germans are well-known for their being on time. In many African and South American countries, however, agreed time is often treated like a general guideline rather than something one has to be strictly observed. Therefore, it is necessary to ask yourself; Is the time for a meeting unchangeable, or does it allow for some flexibility（灵活性）?Will you ruin a business deal by arriving late, or is it perfectly acceptable to let family matters over business meetings? Seeing how some cultures care about time more than others, it is always best to be on time at first.

1.What kind of difference is mentioned in paragraph l as an example?

A.Ways of talking. B.Language. C.Travel. D.Decoration.

2.What should you do when you are at a business meeting according to paragraph 3?

A.Speak loudly and listen carefully. B.Call the businessmen's last names.

C.Show respect for the elder partner. D.Pay attention to the first impression.

3.What will be appreciated by business partners in France?

A.Gentle whispering. B.The most popular dressing up.

C.Casual communication skills. D.Necessary preparations for meetings.

4.What can we learn from the example in paragraph 5?

A.Germans don't take fixed time seriously.

B.Most Africans are always on time in general.

C.It is wise to be on time wherever at the beginning.

D.Being late cannot be accepted in South American countries.

There are five keys to success in learning a foreign language.

Spend the time.

By far the most important factor is how much time you are immersed(浸入) in the language.

1.This means spending time enjoyably connected to the language you are learning.

Listen and read every day.

Listen wherever you are on your MP3 player.2. Listen to and read things that you like, things that you can mostly understand, or even partly understand. If you keep listening and reading you will get used to the language. One hour of listening or reading is more effective than many hours of class time.

3.

Build up your vocabulary, you’ll need lots. Start to notice words and how they come together as phrases. Learn these words and phrases through your listening and reading. Gradually you will be able to use them. Do not worry about how accurately you speak until you have accumulated plenty of words through listening and reading.

Take responsibility for your own learning.

If you do not want to learn the language, you won’t. 4.Do not wait for someone else to show you the language, nor to tell you what to do. Discover the language by yourself, like a child growing up.

5.

Do not worry about what you cannot remember, or can’t yet understand. It does not matter. You are learning and improving. The language will gradually become clearer in your brain, but this will happen on a schedule that you can’t control. So just make sure you spend enough time with the language. That is the greatest guarantee of success.

A.Relax and make sure of the time spent with the language.

B.Focus on words and phrases.

C.Read what you are listening to.

D.Chat with others in the language on the Internet.

E.If you do want to learn the language, take control.

F.The more time you spend with the language, the faster you will learn.

G.There are hundreds of easy conversations for you to practice speaking.
