填空题How to Learn Language Successfully 1 They can pick up new vocabulary, master rules or grammar, and learn to write in the new language more quickly than others. They do not seem to be any more intelligent than others, so 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 of the techniques which make language learning easier for them. 2 They do not depend on the book or the teacher; they discover their own way to learn the language. Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain, they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves. They are good guessers who look for clues and form their own conclusions. When they guess wrong, they guess again. They try to learn from mistakes. 3 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 when they make a mistake. They will try anything to communicate. They are not afraid to repeat what they hear or to say strange things; 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 the meaning of every world. 4 They want to learn the language because they are interested 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. They find it easy to practice using the language regularly because they want to learn with it. 5 If you are a successful language learner, you have probably been learning independently, actively, and purposefully. On the other hand, if your language learning has been less than successful, you might as well try some of the techniques outlined above. Complete the passage with the following sentences. There are two extra sentences that you do not need to use. A. First of all, successful language learners are independent learners. B. Finally, successful language learners are learners with a purpose. C. Successful language learning is active learning. D. Some people seem to have a knack for learning languages. E. Active language learners seize every opportunity to use the target language. F. What kind of language learner are you? G. Successful language learners derive conclusions from clues.

Cookery is a science requiring a knowledge of chemistry. 【M4】______This is evident from the variety of cooking products and food additives available as cooking oils, fats, colorings, sweeteners, tenderizers, flavorings, screamingagents, preservatives, etc. Each is carefully prepared before painstaking 【M5】______research. It is therefore essential for trained cookers to understand 【M6】______chemical science in order to appreciate the chemistry nature of foods 【M7】______and the changes achieving on cooking.

Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet. The process by {{U}}(66) {{/U}} of which human beings arbitrarily make certain things stand for other things may be called the symbolic process. Everywhere we turn, we see the symbolic process {{U}}(67) {{/U}} work. There are few things men do or want to do, possess or want to possess, that have not a symbolic value.

填空题Old people are always saying that the young are not what they were. The same comment is made from generation to generation and it is always true. It has never been truer than it is today.

Every new generation is different from the one that preceded it. Today the difference is very marked indeed. The old always assume that they know best for the simple reason (6)t they have been around a bit longer. They don't like to feel that their values are being (7)qu or threatened. And this is precisely what the young are doing. They are questioning the assumptions of their elders and (8)dis their self-satisfaction. They take leave to doubt the older generation has created the best of all possible worlds. What they reject more than anything is conformity. Who said that human differences can best be solved through conventional politics or by violent means? Why have the older generation so often used (9)vi to their problems? Why are they so unhappy and so troubled by a sense of guilt in their personal lives, so (10)oc with mean ambitions and the desire to accumulate more and (11)m material possessions? Haven't the old lost touch with all that is important in life? These are not questions the older generation can shrug off lightly. Their record over the past forty years or so hasn't been exactly spotless. Traditionally, the young have (12)tu to their elders for guidance. Today, the situation might be (13)rev . The old—if they are prepared to admit it—could learn a thing or two from their children. One of the biggest lessons they could learn is that enjoyment is not "sinful".

It is surely not wrong to live in the present rather than in the past or future.

填空题 Directions: In this section, you will hear a short passage. There are ten missing words in it. Fill in the blanks with the exact words you hear on the tape. If there is any single {{U}}(21) {{/U}} that makes for success in living, it is the ability to profit by defeat. Every success I know has been achieved because the person was able to analyze defeat and {{U}}(22) {{/U}} profit by it in his next {{U}}(23) {{/U}} . Confuse defeat with failure, and you are {{U}}(24) {{/U}} indeed to failure. For it isn't defeat that makes you fail: it is your own {{U}}(25) {{/U}} to see in defeat the guide and encouragement to success. Defeats are nothing to be {{U}}(26) {{/U}} of. They often occur in the life of every man who achieves success. But defeat is a dead loss unless you do face it, analyze it and learn why you are defeated. Not only does defeat prepare us for success, but nothing can {{U}}(27) {{/U}} within us such a compelling {{U}}(28) {{/U}} to success. If you let a baby grasp a rod and try to pull it away, he will cling more and more {{U}}(29) {{/U}} until his whole weight is suspended. It is the same {{U}}(30) {{/U}} which should give you new and greater strength every time you are defeated. If you make the best of the power which defeat gives, you can succeed with it far more than you are capable of.

填空题I wish my memory worked differently. I'd like to be able to conjure up an accurate image of my (1) (conscious) from, say, 25 years ago. You know what 25 years means? No cellphones, no e-mail, no Internet, no social networking (except with an actual drink in hand), and only the most primitive of personal computers. What I want to answer is a single (2) : Was I as addicted to the future than as I seem to be now? I ask this because I really enjoy a new update to my operating system, like the one I (3) down from Apple earlier this week. I find it (4) ( surprise) pleasing when one of my iPhone applications requests an update too. Every day I await, with anticipation, a long list of email messages that could arrive at any second, and there are several people I'm really eager to get a text message (5) . Those, too, could come at any time. Soon-even now-I could find my feed-list in Google Reader delightfully stuffed with newness. I am not a Twitterer, but I understand the dismay the Twitter world must have felt during its service (6) (disrupt) last week. When I think back 25 years, there just wasn't that much to be waiting (7) . The phone might ring-and if you left home, you had to leave without it. The mail would come, and so might UPS or Federal Express. Someone might stop by on the spur of the moment. A fax perhaps? That was about it. I've always looked forward to the mail coming. I don't know why, and now where the mail comes constantly, cease (8) , a world where I find myself dismayed by the slowdown in blog feeds over the weekend. I consider myself a moderate user of personal electronics. I almost never wear earbuds, and yet this constant foretaste of the future, this hunger for the next electronic blip, feels to me like a full-blown (9) ( addict). Which is why I'd like a clearer picture of my old self. Was I a little more serene 25 years ago? Was there a little more silence inside my head? A little less (10) (expect)? Or was I leaning headlong into the future even then?
