| No one knows how man learned to make words. Perhaps he began by making sounds like those made by animals. Perhaps he made sounds like those he heard all round him--water splashing (溅落), bees humming, a stone falling to the ground. Somehow he learned to make words. As the centuries went by, he made more and more new words. This is what we mean by language. People living in different countries made different kinds of words. Today there are about fifteen hundred different languages in the world. Each contains four or five hundred thousand words, but we do not need all of these. Only a few thousand words are used in everyday life. The words you know are called your vocabulary. You should try to make your vocabulary bigger, read as many books as you can.

| In the 13th century, the famous Italian traveler, Marco Polo, traveled a long way to China. During his stay in China, he discovered that the Chinese used paper money. In western countries, people did not use paper money until the 15th century. A Chinese man called Cai Lun invented paper almost 2000 years ago. He made it from wood. Now paper still comes from trees. We use a lot of paper every day. Every day, people throw away about 280 tons of paper in our city. It takes 17 trees to make one ton of paper. This means that we are cutting nearly 4800 trees every day. Since it takes more than 10 years for a tree to grow, we must start using less paper now. If we don't, we will not have enough time to grow more trees to take the place of those we use for paper. So how can we save paper? We can use both sides of every piece of paper, especially when we are making notes. We can choose drinks in bottles instead of those in paper packets. We also use cotton handkerchiefs and not paper ones. When we go shopping, we can use fewer paper bags. If the shop assistant does give us a paper bag, we can save it and reuse it later. |
| 1. Who was Marco Polo? |
|
[ ] |
| A. He was a traveler of Italy. B. He was an inventor of Italy C. He discovered how to use paper money D. He stayed in China |

|
[ ] |
| A. 10 B. 17 C. 280 D. 4800 |
| 4. Which of the following is not the way of saving paper? |
|
[ ] |
| A. To use both sides of every piece of paper. B. To grow more trees. C. To use cotton handkerchiefs instead of paper ones. D. To use the paper bags from shops more than once. |
| 5. Which is the best title of the passage? |

| If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong. If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault (过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to be blamed (责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can't read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practice remembering. |
| 1. Which of the following is right? |
|
[ ] |
| A. Your arms or your legs will become weak when you use them. B. Your memory works in the same way as your arms and legs. C. Everybody knows that memory works in the same way as their arms and legs. D. Your memory can't become strong again when you use them again. |
| 2. If you want to have a good memory, you must ______. |
|
[ ] |
| A. practice it B. not give it enough chance to become strong C. have clever parents D. use your arms and legs often |
| 3. One has a bad memory because of ______. |
|
[ ] |
| A. his own fault B. his parents' fault C. his teachers' fault D. his strong arms and legs |
| 4. Many people who can't read and write can remember things well because ______. |
|
[ ] |
| A. they have to remember B. they can't write them down C. they practice remembering D. they can remember things quickly |
| 5. The writer tells us ______. |
|
[ ] |
| A. a good memory comes from practice B. a good memory needs strong arms and legs C. parents can make us clever D. to remember days, names and songs |

| It's over three years since I began to learn English. I am glad that I am getting on well with it. I find English quite difficult, but very interesting. When I first started, I thought I had only to remember the new words and learn some grammars. I know little about English idioms (习语). I thought each English word has the same meaning in Chinese. When I learned to say "I see a book on the desk", I thought the English word "see" was just like the Chinese word "kan". So one day when my teacher asked me, "What are you doing?" I answered, "I'm seeing a book." "That's wrong." The teacher said. "You don't see a book. You read a book. You can't use an English word like a Chinese one. Be sure not to make the same mistake again." After that I began to pay more attention to the differences between Chinese and English. For example, in English we say a "high mountain", but a "tall man". In Chinese we use the same word "gao" for both. Again in English we say "take part in the sports meeting", "attend a meeting" and "join the army", while in Chinese we can use "can jia" for all three. Interesting, isn't it? So to study English doesn't only mean hard work, it can be great fun, too! We not only have to pay attention to pronunciation, grammar, spelling and handwriting, we also have to understand English idiom. We can learn English well only in that way! But all this is only a beginning and I still have a long way to go. I'll try my best and work even harder than before. I must speak and listen to English more both in and out of class. I must learn English well so that I work well when I grow up. |

| 3. I began to pay more attention to the differences between Chinese and English ______. |
|
[ ] |
| A. when I began to learn English B. when I said "I see book on the desk" C. before I began to learn English D. after the teacher told me not to use an English word like a Chinese one |
| 4. We should speak and listen to English ______. |
|
