In it, 78-year-old Xu Xiuzhen talks with foreigners in different languages. Xu, also known as “Mama Moon”, lives in a village at the foot of Moon Hill, a popular place of interest in Yangshuo. From 1998, Xu started working as a guide and vendor (小商贩). To communicate with more foreign people, she began to learn different languages. When she heard a new word, she would write it down in her notebook and ask people to explain it to her. Every night before bedtime, she would repeat (重复) the word in her head. At last, she could remember and use the word well. Over the past 25 years, Xu has taught herself 11 foreign languages. Now, Xu’s ability in speaking different languages makes her one of the busiest guides. Many foreign visitors in Yangshuo come to meet her. Though Xu is almost 80 years old, she wants to learn more foreign languages in the future. “More and more foreigners come to Yangshuo every year. I hope they can feel at home here with my help,” she said. 28. Xu started to work as a guide and vendor when she was _________. A. 20 B. 25 C. 53 D. 78 29. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A.

D Sing the Language You’re Learning How can you remember a song from your childhood to this day? Why do your teachers use songs to teach you English? It seems there is a scientific reason for this. Researchers (研究者) are now studying the relationship between music and remembering a foreign language. They find that remembering words in a song is the best way to remember even the most difficult language. “Singing could be a new way of learning a foreign language. The brain (大脑) likes to remember things when they are used in a catchy and meaningful way,” said Dr. Karen Ludke. The findings may help those who have difficulty learning foreign languages. On his blog, Dr. Ludke writes, “A listen-and-repeat singing method can support foreign language learning and open the door to future research in this area.” Many language teachers know the value of using music and singing. Hua Zhuying, a teacher at a Chinese language school in Washington, D.C. depends heavily on songs in teaching Chinese. She says, “I use music all the time to teach children Chinese. For little kids usually we use the music. Not only does it work, but it is fun for kids.” “Sometimes, I think if I were taught English that way, maybe I could speak much better English than now,” Hua Zhuying adds. Our brain likes music, especially for remembering. So, if you’re still struggling in learning a language, why not try singing it out? 32. What is the best way to remember a foreign language according to the passage? A. To read and write more. B. To listen to the teacher carefully. C. To copy the words many times. D. To remember words in a song. 33. Dr.Ludke believes that ________ is helpful for foreign language learning. A. using the listen-and-repeat singing method B. listening to all kinds of famous music C. writing songs with the language D. reading the lyrics again and again 34. From the passage, we know that Hua Zhuying ________. A. is interested in writing English songs B. teaches children English by using music C teaches Chinese in an American school D. is a researcher in a language school 35. What does the passage mainly tell us? A. Many researchers realize the importance of language studying. B. Our brain remembers a language better if we sing it. C. Many language teachers know the value of famous music. D. We will never learn a language well unless we can sing. 第二节 阅读还原。（共 10 分，每小题 2 分） 阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。每个选项只能用一次。 Life is full of rules including traffic, health and so on.

Why do your teachers use songs to teach you English? It seems there is a scientific reason for this. Researchers (研究者) are now studying the relationship between music and remembering a foreign language. They find that remembering words in a song is the best way to remember even the most difficult language. “Singing could be a new way of learning a foreign language. The brain (大脑) likes to remember things when they are used in a catchy and meaningful way,” said Dr. Karen Ludke. The findings may help those who have difficulty learning foreign languages. On his blog, Dr. Ludke writes, “A listen-and-repeat singing method can support foreign language learning and open the door to future research in this area.” Many language teachers know the value of using music and singing. Hua Zhuying, a teacher at a Chinese language school in Washington, D.C. depends heavily on songs in teaching Chinese. She says, “I use music all the time to teach children Chinese. For little kids usually we use the music. Not only does it work, but it is fun for kids.” “Sometimes, I think if I were taught English that way, maybe I could speak much better English than now,” Hua Zhuying adds. Our brain likes music especially for remembering. So, if you’re still struggling in learning a language, why not try singing it out? 32. What is the best way to remember a foreign language according to the passage? A. To read and write more. B. To listen to the teacher carefully. C. To copy the words many times. D. To remember words in a song. 33. Dr.Ludke believes that ________ is helpful for foreign language learning. A. using the listen-and-repeat singing method B. listening to all kinds of famous music C. writing songs with the language D. reading the lyrics again and again 34. From the passage, we know that Hua Zhuying ________. A. is interested in writing English songs B. teaches children English by using music C. teaches Chinese in an American school D. is a researcher in a language school 35. What does the passage mainly tell us? A. Many researchers realize the importance of language studying. B. Our brain remembers a language better if we sing it. C.
