【答案解析】[解析] 8-10 Baker: Since so many of you have asked me about how to learn a language, I thought that it might be useful to take some class time today to discuss it. Betty, you speak several languages, don't you? Betty: Yes, I speak Spanish and French. Baker: And what helped you most in learning those languages? Betty: What helped me most Well, I studied both languages in high school, and I'm still studying Spanish here at the university, but I think that travel has probably been the most help to me. You see, I've been lucky in that I've lived in Europe. Believe me, I didn't speak very well before I moved there. Bill: You' re right, Betty. After studying a language, practice is very useful. When you live in a country where the language is spoken, it's ideal. But, you know, sometimes it's difficult to make friends in a new place, even when the people are very friendly. Betty: Yes, I know what you mean. Especially if you don't speak my language too well. I had some problems when I first moved to Europe. Baker: And, of course, some people are shy. Betty: That's true. Bill: Professor Baker, whether or not I'm living in a country where the language is spoken, I always go to movies, and whenever I can, I watch TV or listen to the radio in the language I'm trying to learn. Betty: Me too. And reading is another good way to learn. Books are good, but I think that newspapers and magazines are even better. Baker: Probably the best way to learn is to combine all of these ideas: traveling, talking with people, going to movies, watching TV, listening to the radio, and reading hooks, newspapers and magazines. What do you think? Betty: I agree with that, Professor Baker. Bill: So do I. But I don't believe that it's possible to take advantage of practice opportunities without some knowledge of the language first. Betty: Sure. First it's a good idea to study grammar, vocabulary. Bill: ... and listening, perhaps even reading. Betty: Then practice is very, very helpful. [试题分析] 本题考查的是会话的主题。 [详细解答] 此类题既要听懂大致的意思，更要抓住关键词。从会话开始和结束中Professm。Baker的话，以及同学们的讨论可以得知D为正确答案。
