Understatement means saying less than you think or feel.For example，if someone gets very wet in a shower of rain，he might say，“It's a little damp (潮湿的) outside.” Or，if someone is very impolite and shouts at another person，someone else might say，“She isn't exactly friendly.” Understatement is often used in unpleasant situation or to make another person look silly.Understatement plays an important part in British humor. Another key to understanding British humor is that the British like to make fun of themselves as well as others.They often laugh about the silly and unpleasant things that happen to our everyday life when someone accidently falls over in the street.They also like to make jokes about people from different classes of society.They like to make jokes about their accents，the way they dress and the way they behave.What's more，the British love to watch comedies (喜剧) about people who do not know how to behave in society.The comedies series Mr.Bean is a good example of this kind of humor. Mr.Bean is the character created by British actor Rowan Atkinson in 1990.Mr.Bean doesn't talk often，and instead he uses his body movement and facial expressions to make people laugh.Perhaps what makes Mr.Bean so funny is that he does things that adults in the real world cannot do.Mr.Bean is popular in many countries around the world because you do not have to speak English to understand the humor.Because of this，many people have become familiar with the British sense of humor.

Your English is progressing well, the grammar is now familiar, the reading comprehension is no problem, and you are speaking quite fluently. 　__1__　 First of all, remember that you are not alone. Listening is probably the most difficult job for almost all learners of English as a foreign language. The most important thing is to listen as often as possible. 　__2__　 The Internet is really a useful tool for English students. You can download The RealPlayer from RealMedia.com. The RealPlayer allows you to use the Internet like a radio station. Once you have begun to listen on a regular basis, you might still be frustrated by limited understanding. 　__3__　 Here is some of the advice I give my students： ●Accept the fact that you are not going to understand everything. ●Stay relaxed when you do not understand, and try listening to the material for more times. ●Do not translate everything into your native language. ●　__4__　 Don't concentrate on details before you have understood the main ideas. ●Listen to something you enjoy. I remember the problems I had in understanding spoken German when I first went to Germany. In the beginning, when I didn't understand a word, I insisted on translating it in my mind. This method usually resulted in confusion. 　__5__　 Firstly, translating creates a barrier between the listener and the speaker. Secondly, most people repeat themselves constantly. By remaining calm, I noticed that even if I did not pay much attention I could usually understand what the speaker had said. A．What should you do? B．Listen for the general idea of the conversation. C．But you can't follow a native English speaker at all! D．But listening is a problem for most of the beginners! E．So, what you need to do is to find listening resources. F．However, after several weeks, I got used to the new environment in Germany. G．Then, after the first six months, I discovered two extremely important facts. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了在学习英语时遇到的最大问题——听力，并介绍了几种提高听力的方法。 1．C　[设空前指出：你的英语进步很大，语法也不错，阅读理解也很好，你也说得很流利；设空处下一段指出听力是几乎所有英语学习者的最大障碍。C项“但是你听不明白以英语为母语的人所讲的内容”承上启下，故选C项。] 2．E　[设空前指出最重要的是要尽可能多听；设空后指出因特网是一个有用的工具，指出了具体的学习途径，即如何去寻找学习资源，E项与下文衔接紧密，故选E项。] 3．A　[上文提到有规律地听，但你仍然可能理解不了；下文针对性地给出了一些建议，故A选项符合语境。] 4．B　[下文提到在弄清大意之前不要关注细节，“the main ideas”与“the general idea of the conversation”是同义词，故选B项。] 5．G　[根据后面的“Firstly, ... Secondly, ...”可知，下文讲述了两个要点，G项中的“two ... important facts”是总述，故选G项。] 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
