单选题When you have an idea of the kind of car you might be buying, take the time to look up road tests. These appear in consumer magazines and in magazines for automobile enthusiasts, and both types are usually available in your library if you're not a subscriber. The consumer magazines generally pay more attention to practical things like roominess, gas mileage, and repair records; the enthusiasts' magazines pay more attention to things like performance and style. You should remember that the enthusiasts' magazines depend on the auto industry for the advertising that keeps them in business and some (not all) will manage to find something nice to say about all cars. So read about several road tests of the car you are thinking of getting. You may want to skip this step because your mind is already made up--maybe you always buy a certain make of car or you like one that a friend has. But check the magazines' road tests anyway; they may change your mind. Note too that Federal law requires manufacturers to make available to prospective purchasers certain items of information. regarding tires, braking, and passing and acceleration ability. This information must be available in the dealer's showroom, and also normally found in the glove box of the vehicle, either in the owner's manual or as a separate document. Thus, you can easily compare the performance figures of various makes and models, to assist you in making your decision.

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.

单选题Conversation 1

单选题Ask three people to look out the same window at a busy street comer and tell you what they see. Chances are you will receive three different answers. Each person sees the same scene, but each perceives something different about it. Perceiving goes on in our minds. Of the three people who look out the window, one may say that he sees a policeman giving a cyclist a ticket. Another may say that he sees a rush-hour traffic jam at the intersection. The third may. tell you that he sees a woman trying to cross the street with four children in tow. For perception is the mind' s interpretation of what the senses—in this case our eyes—tell us. Many psychologists today are working to try to determine just how a person experiences or perceives the world around him. Using a scientific approach, these psychologists set up experiments in which they can control all of the factors. By measuring and charting the results of many experiments, they are trying to find out what makes different people perceive totally different things about the same scene.
