16、hat follows is some advice on how to read poetry.Read aloud the poem slowly. Reading a poem slowly is the best way to ensure that the poem will be read clearly and understood by its listeners. Learning to read aloud a poem slowly will not only make the poem easier to hear, but it will also show the
17、importance of each word in poetry. A poem cannot be read too slowly, however. A good way for a reader to set an easy pace is to pause for a few seconds between the title and the poems first line.Read in a normal and relaxed tone of voice.

20、ome to eat. In some cases, releasing fish is a good measure that will help keep fish variety and build their population size. The Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (DGIF) encourages fishermen who practice catch-and-release fishing to use a few simple skills when doing so. The advice provided b

23、e fish.- Take good care of the fish by moving it gently in water.

25、 modern-day society we are seeing some new kinds of addictions. Some people are compulsive (难以自制的) shoppers. Others find it impossible to pull themselves away from their work. Still others spend countless hours watching TV or playing computer games. Over the years, shopping has become a very common
26、activity. Many people enjoy going to malls or stores more and more everyday, but its more than a common hobby for some of them. They have turned into shopaholics. They are people who simply enjoy shopping and walking around spending money without being able to stop doing it. They are hooked on shopp
27、ing and usually buy things that they dont need. Even though they dont have enough money, they buy everything they want.The question is: why do they have this addiction? There isnt a specific answer. Some people go shopping when they are sad, worried, upset or lonely and they want to feel better. The
28、y use this activity as a way to forget their problems. Shopaholics say that they feel more important and better after they buy something. They also tend to have this addiction when they feel guilty.Shopaholism seems to be a harmless addiction, but it can cause many problems. Some of them can be psyc
29、hological. If this is the case, people addicted to shopping should go to a support group to help them break this habit. However, the process, like for most addictions, is long, and they suffer a lot. It can also cause financial problems. They just think about satisfying their feelings, so they spend
30、 money they dont have. They get deep in debt, and they can even go bankrupt and get sent to prison. 1. Give the definition of a shopaholic.2. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3? 3.

31、ngs very quickly: First, you must understand main topics; second, your hand must work as quickly as your ears so that you can write down as much information as possible. You do not have to learn how to write down what you hear. But you do need to practice a few simple skills to help you to be good a
32、t note-taking. Also, you should learn how to write only the most important words in short forms from each sentence without taking notice of the rest.In the old days, people sent telegrams to each other. When they did it, they had to pay by the word, and it was expensive. That is why they sent very s
33、hort telegrams which included only the most important words. Lets compare these two examples:l “I will be arriving tomorrow, Monday, April 15, on TWA flight number 222, at JFK airport.”l “Arrive 15th TWA 222 JFK.” Which message would be more expensive?When you take notes, you have a similar problem.
34、 In this case it is not money, but time. For that reason, it is a good idea to practice listening for only the most important sentences, and only the most important words in those sentences. 1. What do you have to do when taking notes? 2. What should you do if you want to write down all the key info
35、rmation?3. What is the purpose of the writer in writing the article?8) 阅读与表达 Escaping a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save a life. It is important to know the way you can use and show them to everyone in the family, such as using stairs, but not using lifts. From the
36、 lower floors of building, escaping through windows is possible. Learn the best way of leaving by window with the least chance of serious injury. The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. A person of average height, hanging by the fingertips will have a drop of about 6 feet t
37、o the ground. It is about the height of an average man. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building. Windows are also very useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed before opening the window. Otherwise, smoke and fire may be drawn into th
38、e room. Keep your head low at the window. To be sure you get enough fresh air rather than smoke that may have leaked into the room.On a second or third floor, the best windows for escape are those which open onto a roof. From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely. Dropping onto the ce
39、ment (水泥) might end in injury. Bushes and grass can help to break a fall. 1. Which way can you use in a fire, using stairs or using lifts?2. Why should you keep your head low at the window when in a burning building?3. What is the passage mainly about?9)Its important to learn about protecting enviro
40、nment. Here is a 5R rule for us: ReduceIf you want to reduce waste, you should use things wisely. A large number of trees are being cut down to make paper. If everyone use paper carelessly and threw it out, soon we would not have any trees left. Other things are also being wasted, and people dont kn
41、ow what to do with the waste in big cities. So it is necessary to reduce the waste. ReuseYou should always think of reusing the usable things before throwing them out. Give your clothes you do not use or the ones which are too small to the poor. In a family, you may pass on such clothes to younger b
42、rothers or sisters. RecycleBottles, cans and paper can easily be recycled. By doing so, we save lots of time and money. For example, coke cans are sent to a factory, where they are smashed flat and melted, and the metal things are made for new coke cans. Recover When you buy a box of apples, there m
43、ay be a few rotten apples, you have two choices: one is to throw the whole apples away, or you could cut off the rotten parts and use the good parts. In this way, you are recovering the eatable parts of food. RepairIf one of the legs of your table is broken, you can repair it. If you want to change
44、for better ones, it is better for you to sell the old things or give them to other people who can use them after doing some repair. It is true that North America is a “throw-away” society, but the time has come to change our way of life so that we can protect our environment. Every one of us should
45、try our best. 1. What should we do if we want to reduce waste?_ 2. Why do we recycle bottles, cans and paper?_3. What is the writers purpose of this passage?_10) Trees are useful to man in three very important ways: they provide him with wood and other products; they give him shade and they help to
46、prevent droughts and floods. Unfortunately, in many parts of the world, in his eagerness to draw quick benefit from the trees, man has cut down a large number of trees. Even where a government realizes the importance of plentiful supply of trees, it is difficult for it to persuade the villagers to s
47、ee this. So unless the government has a great system of control, or can educate the people, the forests slowly disappear.The results are more serious: for where there are trees their roots break the soil up allowing the rain to sink and also hold the soil, thus preventing it from being washed away easily, but where there are no trees, the soil becomes hard and poor.The rain falls on hard ground and flows away on the surface, causing floods, and carries away with the r
