（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

[1]The key word is practice! Practice, Practice, Practice! There is no other way. There is no magic. The way to get better at listening to English is to listen to English. That’s the not-so-good news.

[2]The good news is there are many ways to listen and many things to listen to.

[3] Listening to English songs can be fun. But be careful! Most English songs use the language in a special way that you don’t hear every day. You don’t want to start speaking English like a poet or a songwriter. If you do listen to English songs, listen to different ones. This will help you train your ears to different voices, pronunciations and rhythms.

[4]If you can, get a copy of the lyrics so you can read them and listen to them at the same time. It is sometimes better to listen with your eyes as well as your ears---more information to help the brain.

[5]Watch English DVDs. But this time, don’t use your eyes to read the subtitles. Turn off the subtitles, because movies have so many other clues about what is happening that it is better not to use the subtitles. This enforces your ears do the work.

[6]Choose one character that interests you and pay attention to what they say and how they say it. If you can, repeat a line out loud after they have said it. Teach yourself one or more sayings, phrases or ways of talking that you will use after watching the movie. A new and growing resource of English language for listening can be found in blogs. Blogs are in MP3 format and can be loaded first onto your computer and then onto your MP3 player for very convenient take-with-you listening.

[7]You can find many English listening practices are fun, new, educational and in unending supply.

Yoga is an ancient physical and spiritual practice originating in India. The word“yoga” comes from Sanskrit （梵文）and means to join or to unite, symbolizing the union of body and mind.

The practice of magic includes special words, actions, and objects. Most magic involves a person called a magician, who claims to have supernatural powers. Magic words.

To work most magic, the magician sings or speaks special words in a certain order. These words are called incantations or spells. Some spells form prayers to demons(魔鬼), spirits, or other supernatural forces. Many societies believe the magic will not work unless the magician recites the spells perfectly. Other magic words have no meaning, though they supposedly possess power when spoken by a magician. Magic actions accompany the words spoken in performing much magic. Many of these movements act out the desired effect of the magic. For example, a magician trying to make rain fall may sprinkle(洒) water on the ground. The magician's combined words and actions form a ceremony. Magic objects include certain plants, stones, and other things with supposed supernatural powers. Any such object may be called a fetish(物神). But this term often refers to an object—for example, a carving or a dried snake—honored by a tribe for its magic powers. Many tribes believe fetishes have magic power because spirits live in these objects. Many people carry magic objects called amulets(护身符)to protect themselves from harm. Many amulets are stones or rings engraved(雕刻) with magic symbols.

The magician, in some societies, nearly everyone knows how to work some magic. In other societies, only experts practice magic. Magicians may be called medicine men, medicine women, shamans, sorcerers, or witch doctors. In many societies, magicians must inherit(遗传) their powers. In others, any person may become a magician by studying the magical arts.

Many societies believe magicians must observe certain rules and taboos (forbidden actions) for their spells to work. For example, they may be required not to eat various foods or to avoid sexual activity for a certain period before the ceremony.

1.What do magic words mean to people in some society?

A．They have the power to kill devils.

B．They have power if magician recites the right spells.

C．They have no effect at all.

D．They can be used whenever they want.

2.Why do many people believe in a fetish?

A．Because it is often a ring which is worth a lot of money.

B．Because it is carved with magic symbols.

C．Because people think spirits live in it.

D．Because it can help them with many things.

3.What's the best title of the passage?

A．How Magicians make Magic Work           B．The Power of Magic

C．How to Practice Magic                    D．The Choice of Magicians

We've all heard the saying: practice makes prefect! In other words, acquiring skills takes time and effort. But how exactly does one go about learning a complex subject such as tennis, calculus, or even how to play the violin? An age-old answer is: practice one skill at a time. A beginning pianist might rehearse scales(音阶) before chords(和弦). A young tennis player practices the forehand before the backhand. Learning researchers call this “blocking”， and because it is common and easy to schedule, blocking is dominant in schools, training programs, and other settings.

However another strategy promises improved results. Enter “interleaving”， a largely unheard-of technique that is catching the attention of　 cognitive(认知) psychologists and neuroscientists. Blocking involves practicing one skill at a time before the next (for example, “skill A” before “skill B” and so on, forming the pattern “AAABBBCCC”), while in interleaving one mixes practice on several related skills together (forming for example the pattern “ABCABCABC”).

Over the past four decades, a small but growing body of research has found that interleaving often outperforms blocking for a variety of subjects, including sports and category learning. Yet there have been almost no studies of the technique in unplanned, real world settings-until recently. New research in schools finds that interleaving produces dramatic and long-lasting benefits for an essential skill: math. Not only does this finding have the potential to transform how math is taught, it may also change how people learn more generally.

Researches are now working to understand why interleaving produces such impressive results. One important explanation is that it improves the brain's ability to tell apart between concepts. With blocking, once you know what solution to use, or movement to do, the hard part is over. With interleaving, each practice attempt is different from the last, so rote(死记硬背) responses don't work. Instead, your brain must continuously focus on searching for different solutions. That process can improve your ability to learn critical features of skills and concepts, which then better enables you to select and produce the correct response.

A second explanation is that interleaving strengthens memory associations. With blocking, a single strategy，temporarily held in short-term memory, is sufficient. That's not the case with interleaving-the correct solution changes from one practice attempt to the next. As a result, your brain is continually engaged at regaining different responses and bringing them into short-term memory. Repeating that process can strengthen neural connections between different tasks and correct responses, which improves learning.

Both of these accounts imply that increased effort during training, either to discriminate correct responses or to strengthen them, is needed when interleaving is used. This corresponds to a potential drawback of the technique, namely that the learning process often feels more gradual and difficult in the beginning. However, that added effort can have better, longer-lasting results.

1.What can we learn from the new strategy of “interleaving”？

A. Studying related skills together has many impressive results.

B. Learning relevant skills together contributes to people mastering skills quickly.

C. Focusing on different skills at a time saves people time and efforts in the beginning.

D. Mixing up skills distracts people's attention, thus lessening efficiency.

2.Why does interleaving produce impressive results?

A. It can be scheduled easily.

B. It focuses on rote responses.

C. It is temporarily held in short-term memory.

D. It enables you to learn critical features of skills and concepts.

3.What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. Blocking involves practicing one skill at a time before the next.

B. Correct solution often changes from one practice attempt to the next.

C. Practising one skill at a time plays an important role in learning a complex subject.

D. Studying related skills or concepts together is an effective way to train your brain.
