B How to Improve Your English Communication Skills English communication skills are very important in our daily life. Whether you are studying, working or traveling, good English communication can help you a lot. Here are some useful tips to improve your English communication skills. First, practice speaking as much as possible. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. You can speak English with your classmates, friends or family members. If you don’t have a partner, you can talk to yourself or record your voice and listen to it. This can help you find your problems and improve your pronunciation. Second, listen to English more. You can watch English movies, TV shows or listen to English songs and podcasts. When listening, try to understand the main idea and take notes of some useful words and sentences. This can help you improve your listening ability and expand your vocabulary. Third, read English materials regularly. You can read English newspapers, magazines, storybooks or online articles. Reading can help you learn new words and grammar structures, and it can also improve your writing skills. After reading, you can try to retell the content in your own words. Finally, be confident. When communicating in English, believe in yourself. Even if you make mistakes, don’t give up. Keep practicing, and you will make great progress. 29. What can you do if you don’t have a speaking partner? A. Talk to yourself. B. Give up practicing. C. Only read English books. D. Watch English movies all day. 30. Which of the following is NOT a way to improve listening ability? A. Watching English movies. B. Listening to English songs. C. Recording your own voice. D. Listening to English podcasts. 31. What is the most important thing when communicating in English? A. Being rich. B. Being confident. C. Being tall. D. Being quiet. C How would you describe the taste of a mushroom? Is it sweet? Sour? Salty? Bitter? Or maybe it’s something else—umami. Umami gives food a full, mouthwatering taste. People call it the “fifth taste”. A Japanese scientist named Kikunae Ikeda discovered umami first. Once, he noticed that seaweed (海藻) soup, a common Japanese dish, didn’t taste like the other four tastes. He began studying the soup, and in 1908, he found it was something called glutamate that made it taste special. He then mixed glutamate with salt and created a way to make MSG (味精). Ikeda decided to call the new taste “umami” until he could think of a better name. But it seems he never did. At first, people didn’t think there was a fifth taste because umami isn’t a strong taste, and it often mixes with salty or sour tastes. In fact, it took almost 100 years for people to believe Ikeda’s discovery. In 2000, scientists found umami receptors (感受器) in our brains (大脑). In 2002, they found more receptors on our tongues (舌头). Now we know that umami is a real taste! Umami gets stronger when foods work together. That’s why seaweed and dried fish help to make the soup taste so good, or why carrots and onions bring out the taste of beef. 32. What is umami? A. A kind of meat. B. A kind of taste. C. A Japanese dish. D. A famous study. 33. Ikeda found ______ in seaweed soup in 1908. A. salt B. MSG C. glutamate D. mushroom 34. What’s the right order of the following events? ①Ikeda named the fifth taste. ②Scientists discovered umami receptors in the brain. ③Scientists discovered umami receptors on the tongue. ④Ikeda made MSG in his way. A. ①④②③ B. ①③④② C. ④①②③ D. ④①③② 35. Why does the writer talk about different foods in the last paragraph? A. To list popular foods in Japan. B. To compare tastes of different foods. C. To show how to cook Japanese food. D. To explain how umami gets stronger.
