Watch movies “If you watch the movie version (版本) of your favourite book, you probably have a deeper understanding and knowledge of the words in it,” says Neuman, professor of Childhood and Literacy Education at New York University. “Seeing and reading something on the same topic is really important.” Read magazines If you want to improve vocabulary, don’t just read your favourite magazine quickly, really read it. Listen to how words sound Many people won’t remember difficult words unless they often read them. But if you hear a word that you think sounds interesting, you become word conscious (有意识的) and start using it yourself, says Neuman. Join a book club “Book clubs are a wonderful way to learn new words,” says Neuman. Not only will it help you to read, but it’s also a good way to discover books you might not normally read. Listen to the radio Those types of programs can help you to know the topics you may not be familiar with. Don’t miss these middle school vocabulary words adults still don’t know. Pay attention to your surroundings Next time walk down a busy street or take a walk in the park, try to describe what you’re seeing as much as possible inside your head. Read, read, read Even if you don’t stop to look up every single foreign word, chances are you can improve vocabulary simply by figuring out their meaning based on the context. 20. How many tricks mentioned above are through hearing? A. 1. B. 2. C. 3. 21. According to the passage, how will you find some special and unusual books? A. By walking around. B. By listening to the radio. C. By joining a book club. 22. Where does this passage probably come from? A. A novel. B. A sports magazine. C. A website. B The Dragon Head-Raising Day, also known as the Longtaitou Festival, is a traditional Chinese festival. It is on the second day of the second lunar month of the Chinese calendar. This year it falls on March 1st. As an old saying goes, “Er yue er, long taitou.” It means on the second day of the second lunar month, the dragon lifts its head. This festival was important in ancient China. People believed after this day the rain would increase because the rain-bringing Dragon King woke up from his winter sleep. So it marked the start of spring and farming. There are many ways to celebrate the festival. The most famous tradition is to have a haircut. Some people believe that having a haircut on this day brings them good luck, while others believe that having a haircut in the first lunar month will cause their uncles to die. People in East China’s Fujian Province eat tofu balls during the festival. They often make tofu and vegetable balls to pray for family and business, hoping everything goes well. Eating chengyao cakes on this day is a tradition in Suzhou, East China’s Jiangsu Province. It is said that if you eat chengyao cakes on Longtaitou Day, your waist (腰) won’t hurt the whole year. People in parts of Shandong Province eat fried beans to celebrate the festival. Other foods, like noodles, dumplings, spring rolls and popcorn, are all given dragon names on this day. Noodles are called dragons’ beard (longru), dumplings are dragons’ ears (long’er), spring rolls are dragons’ scales (longlin), and popcorn is called dragon seeds (longzi). It’s said that eating these foods on this day can bring good luck. 23. When is the Longtaitou Festival this year? A. It’s on March 2nd. B. It’s on March 1st. C. It’s on February 2nd. 24. Why was this festival important in ancient China? A. Because it marked the start of spring and farming. B. Because it was a symbol of good luck. C. Because people could have a haircut. 25. What does the underlined word “pray” mean in Chinese? A. 奉献 B. 感谢 C. 祈祷 26. What are called dragons’ ears at this festival? A. Dumplings. B. Spring rolls. C. Noodles.

Lee and Smith ran over to the robber at once. The robber saw them and ran away as fast as he could. Lee and Smith followed him for a long way until the robber rushed into an underground station.

The fourth one was running to warm himself up, as it was cold in the station. The fifth one was waiting for the underground. He looked at his watch several times. He seemed to be in a hurry.

When Zhao Huan was 26 years old, he joined the army and became one of the soldiers on the top of Changbai Mountain in Jilin Province. The three-year life in the army made him really strong-willed. The weather on the mountain is terrible in winter. The snow can reach as deep as 2 metres. The lowest temperature can be -40°C. There are over 200 days a year when the wind speed is nearly 12 metres per second. “It is very difficult to fall asleep with the wind outside crying like a wolf,” Zhao said. Life was hard because of the weather. When the snow cut off the roads, the soldiers needed water most. They had to heat the snow to get water to drink, cook and wash with. To save water, they only took a bath once a month. Even so, Zhao and his team did not give up. Whatever difficulties they met, they tried their best to finish their tasks. Especially when they were on duty outside in winter, snow hit their faces and they were frozen because of the low temperature. But they put their duty before anything and stood like a statue without a slight move. Zhao said, “Life is not easy on the top of Changbai Mountain. Thinking of the lights of thousands of homes, I think my efforts pay off. For me, all the difficulties can be overcome in the future. The experience of being a soldier here really means a lot to me.” 31. How old was Zhao Huan when he joined the army? _______________________________________________ 32.
