单选题Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find
5 questions or unfinished statements, numbered 36 to 40.For each question or
statement there are 4 choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should make the
correct choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a
single line through the center. Some people seem
to have a knack (诀窍) for learning languages. They can pick up new vocabulary,
master rules of grammar, and learn to write in the new language much more
quickly than other people. They do not seem to be any cleverer than others. What
makes language learning so much easier for them? Perhaps if we take a close look
at these successful language learners, we may discover a few techniques which
make language learning easier for them. Firstly, successful
language learners are independent learners. They do not depend on the book or
the teacher; they'd rather discover their own way to learn the language than
wait for the teacher to explain everything. They try to find the sentence
patterns, the rules and the meaning of the new word by themselves. They are good
guessers. They look for clues and form their own conclusions. When they guess
wrong, they guess again. They try to learn from their mistakes.
Besides, successful language learning is active learning. Therefore, successful
learners do not wait for a chance to use the language; they look for such a
chance. They find people who speak the language and they ask these people to
correct them whenever they make a mistake. They will try anything to
communicate. They are not afraid to repeat; they are willing to make mistakes
and try again. When communication is difficult, they can accept information that
is inexact or incomplete. It is more important for them to learn to think in the
language than to know every word's meaning. Finally, successful
language learners are learners with a purpose. They want to learn the language
because they have an interest in the language and the people who speak it. It is
necessary for them to learn the language in order to communicate with these
people and to learn from them.
