understand the language when we hear it spoken. Secondly, we must be able to speak it ourselves,
with confidence(自信) and without hesitation(犹豫). Thirdly, we must do much reading. Finally, we
must be able to write it. We must be able to make sentences that are correct in grammar.
There are no shortcuts to success in language learning. A good memory is a great help, but it is not
enough only to memorize the rules from a grammar book. It is not much learning by heart long lists(一
览表) of words and their meanings, studying the dictionary and so on. We must learn by using the
language.
If we are pleased with a few rules we have memorized, we are not really learning the language.
We must "learn through use. " Practice is important. We must practise speaking and writing the language whenever we can.

you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.
Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy.However,
they sing most of the time for a very different reason.Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to
stay out of their territory.
Do you know what a "territory" is? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims as its
own .Only he and his family are welcome there .No other families of the same species are welcome.
Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome.If a stranger
should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout.Probably this would be enough to frighten
him away.
If so, you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him.A bird does the same
thing.But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting (筑巢) season.So he"s screaming (高声尖叫) all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not.This screaming is what we call a bird"s
song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.
Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the
territory of theirs.You can see that birds have a language of their own.Most of it has something to do
with attracting mates and setting up territories.
B.a way of warning
C.an expression of anger
D.a language of their own
B.A place where other bird families are not accepted.
C.An area for which birds fight against each other.
D.An area which a bird considers to be its own
B.Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.
C.Because they want to find outsiders around.
D.Because they want to invite more bird friends.
B.By reporting experimental results.
C.By describing birds"daily life.
D.By telling a bird"s story.
well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for
years can teach her daughter the poem that begins "Twinkle, twinkle, little star" or remember the story of
Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional(额外的) learning trials(尝试)increase the length(长度) of time we will remember it.
In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing
baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as "Twinkle, twinkle, little star" and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn.
The multiplication tables(乘法口诀表)are an exception(例外) to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in
childhood.
The law of overlearning explains why cramming(突击学习)for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the
subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he
learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one"s future development.

A. People remember well what they learned in childhood.
B. Children have a better memory than grown-ups.
C. Poem reading is a good way to learn words.
D. Stories for children arc easy to remember.
2. The author explains the law of overlearning by_________.
A. presenting research findings

C. making a comparison
D. using examples
3. According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is_______.
A. a result of overlearning
B. a special case of cramming
C. a skill to deal with math problems
D. a basic step towards advanced studies
4. What does the word "they" in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. Commonly accepted rules.
B. The multiplication tables.
C. Things easily forgotten.
D. School subjects.
5. What is the author"s opinion on cramming?
A. It leads to failure in college exams.
B. It"s helpful only in a limited way.
C. It"s possible to result in poor memory.
D. It increases students" learning interest.
Sharks are among the oldest animals on Earth.There are hundreds of kinds of sharks.Most are about
two meters long.The dogfish shark, however, is less than twenty centimeters in length.A shark has an
extremely good sense of smell.It can find small amounts of substances in water, such as blood, body
liquids and chemicals produced by animals.__1__ Sharks eat fish, other sharks, and plants that live in the
ocean.
Sharks grow slowly.About forty percent of all sharks lay eggs.__2__Some sharks carry their young
inside their bodies as humans do.Some sharks are not able to reproduce until they are twenty years old.
Most reproduce only every two years.And they give birth to fewer than ten young sharks.For this reason, overfishing of sharks is of special danger to the future of the animal.
Sharks are important for the world"s oceans.They eat injured and diseased fish.Their hunting activities
mean that the numbers of other fish in ocean waters do not become too great.__3__
People hunt sharks for sport, food, medicine and their skin.Experts say the international market for some
kinds of sharks has increased because many parts of a shark are valuable.
Collectors pay thousands of dollars for the jaws of a shark.__4__The skin of a shark can be used like
leather.
In Asia, people enjoy a kind of soup made from shark fins.Experts say a fisherman can earn a lot of
money for even one kilogram of shark fins.Sharks are among the oldest animals on Earth, but some sharks are in danger of disappearing from Earth.__5__
A. Shark liver oil is a popular source of Vitamin A.
B. This protects the plants and other forms of life that exist in the oceans.
C. Sharks are valuable to us and we can make full use of them.
D. These powerful senses help sharks find their food.
E. If too many sharks in one area are killed, that group of sharks may never return to normal population
levels.
F. They are a threat to other forms of life in the ocean.
G. The others give birth to live young.
Like distance runners on a measured course, all of us will move through time in a roughly predictable
pattern.
In the first stage of our lives, we develop and grow, reaching toward the top of physical
vitality(energy).
After we grow up,however, the body begins a process of gradually wearing out.
A new awareness of physical fitness may help lengthen our years of health and vitality, yet nothing we
do will work to stop the unavoidable force of aging.
Most of the changes of aging take place deep inside the body. The lungs become less able to take in
oxygen. Powerful muscles gradually lose their strength. The heart loses power and pumps less blood.Bones grow easier to break.
Finally, we meet a stress,a stress that is greater than our physical resistance. Often it is only a minor
accident or chance infection(a disease eaused by virus), but this time,it brings life to an end.
In 1932, a classic experiment nearly doubled the lifetime of rats, simply by cutting back the
calories(unit for measuring the energy value of food)in their diet.The reason for the effect was then
unknown.
Today, at the university of California at Berkley, Dr.Paul Seagle has also greatly lengthened the
normal lifetime of rats. The result was achieved through a special protein(蛋白质)limited diet, which
had a great effect on the chemistry of the brain. Seagle showed that within the brain, specific chemicals
control many of the signals that influence aging. By changing that chemical balance, the clock of aging
can be reset.
For the first time, the mystery(something that is difficult to understand or to explain)of why our age
is being seriously challenged. Scientists in many fields are now making striking and farreaching
discoveries.
An average lifetime lasts 75 years, yet in each of us lies a potential for a longer life. If we could keep
the vitality and resistance to disease that we have at age twenty, we would live for 80 years.
1. What does the underlined word"it" refer to?
A. Physical vitality.
B. Stress.
C. Aging.
D. Physical resistance.
2. The author believes the following EXCEPT that ________.
A. human"s life pattern is predictable
B. physical fitness can"t stop the force of aging
C. human"s lifetime will last longer than 75 years
D. all of the changes of aging take place deep inside the body
3. How did Dr.Paul Seagle lengthen the lifetime of rats in his experiment?
A. By limiting the protein in their diet.
B. By cutting the calories in their diet.
C. By resetting their clock of aging.
D. By keeping their physical fitness.
4. What is probably the best title for the article?
A. Two Great Experiments
B. The Mystery of Human Life
C. Ways to Lengthen Human Life
D. The Breakthrough in the Study of Aging
Lake Ontario.Surprisingly,the 22gun ship is wellpreserved in the cold,deep water.Explorers
announced the news recently.
Kennard is an electrical engineer.He has been diving for nearly 40 years and has found more
than 200 wrecks(残骸) in the Great Lakes and other lakes or rivers.He began searching the
Ontario 35 years ago but quit after several dives.Six years ago,he began to work with Scoville,a
diver.Since then,the pair have found seven ships in the lake.Over the years,Kennard got licenses
and information,including the ship"s design plans,from the British government.Even then,it took the
pair three years to search more than 200 square miles before they found the ship earlier this month.
After locating the wreck with the sonal(声纳),the explorers used a submarine to confirm their
find.The 80foot ship is the only entire British ship ever found in the Great Lakes,Scoville and
Kennard said."To have a ship from the Revolutionary War that"s nearly entire is unbelievable.It"s
an archaeological miracle."They said the ship is still considered the property of the British Admiralty.
Although the ship sits in an area where the water is up to 500 feet deep and cannot be reached by
anyone but the most experienced divers,Kennard and Scoville refused to give its exact location with
care.They only said that it was found off the southern shore.
The ship was discovered resting partially on its side.It went down on October 31,1780,with 60
British soldiers, a crew of about 40,mostly Canadians,and possibly about 30 American war prisoners.
The explorers also found two cannons and the ship"s bell.
B.has kept searching the Ontario for 35 years
C.is both an engineer and an experienced diver
D.got to know Scoville when he was very young
B.needed a lot of experts"s support
C.was forbidden by the government
D.was made completely by accident
B.will become world famous because of their find
C.may not have succeeded without modern technology
D.will be given a large reward by the American government
B.they were afraid that something unexpected might happen
C.they wanted to keep it a secret forever
D.they thought it would be interesting for people to guess where it is
