         Here are a few tips we've put together to help you learn English well.
         Speak, speak, speak!
         Practise speaking as often as you can-even speaking to yourself is good practice. Try recording yourself
    whenever you can. Compare your pronunciation with the master version, see how you can do better and have
    another try. If you do this several times, you will find that each version is better than the last.
         Why not learn with someone else? 
         It helps if you can learn with someone else. If you can persuade a friend or family member to study with
    you, it will make you keep working. Arrange times to meet and set goals for the week, and test each other
    regularly.
         Don't get stuck (卡住) by a word you don't know Practise improvising (即兴的) ways of getting your
    meaning across while speaking spontaneously (本能), even if you don't know the exact words or phrases.
    Think of things you might want to say whenever you have spare time. A basic example is the use of tenses.
    If you don't know the past tense but want to talk about yesterday, use the verb in the present tense and use
    the word for"yesterday". Use facial expressions, hand movements, anything to get your meaning across.
         Language learning is also about intuition (直觉) Guesswork is important in learning a new language. When
    listening to recorded material, you aren't expected to understand everything first time round. If you play the
    same piece several times, you will most probably understand something new each time. Learn to make
    maximum use of all the clues you can pick up. For example, what do the speakers sound like? Happy? Angry?
    Calm? Etc.
         Build up your vocabulary A wide vocabulary is the key to successful language learning but don't try to
    learn too much at once. It's best to study frequently, for short periods of time. Take a maximum of six or
    seven items of vocabulary and learn them. Put them into sentences to fix them in your mind, then come back
    to them later. Much of the vocabulary in the course is presented by topic. And above all, have fun!
    1. Why should one have himself recorded when practicing speaking?
    A. To encourage others to start.
    B. To record his own progress.
    C. To improve his speaking.
    D. To compare himself with others.
    2. Which of the following is the most important in learning English?
    A. Speaking.
    B. Pleasure. C. Intuition.
    D. Vocabulary.
    3. It is important in Tip 3 that _____ is helpful when you are learning English.
    A. body language
    B. a good memory
    C. a good friend
    D. a proper dictionary
    4. Which of the following seems NOT to be true in learning a language?
    A. Practice makes perfect.
    B. A good beginning is half done.
    C. Rome is not built in a day.
    D. Don't run before you can walk.

         The whole morning we just checked our own things. We were looking for items to give away. We
    thought of blankets, food and clothing. Our aim was not to find things we no longer wanted, but things
    we use every day and would be useful to others.
         We made up boxes with the things and added some small toys. Inside the boxes a simple letter was
    placed, reading:
         "Please take these items and know that your life is important. Times are difficult but they will pass.
    We share what we have, believing it will matter. Use the blanket to stay warm. Be safe and know that the
    human spirit can overcome anything. Don't hold your head down. Someday please do the same when you
    can. How you do it and when, your heart will tell you.
        This kind act was not because the phone rang or for any reason. It was simply because it was the right
    time to do. We have often seen homeless people at the park where we left the belongings. The city would
    say that it isn't a problem but I see the lives walking to and from it.
         I noticed that my wife had put her favorite green coat into one of the boxes. I asked if she was sure
    about it and she simply replied that it had a hood (风帽). She liked the coat but knew the hood could shelter
    (遮挡)someone from the rain.
         We don't know where these gifts of compassion (同情) will go. We never go back and see what
    happens. It's unimportant. The right things will find the right people and that is all that counts. On the way
    my wife started to cry. When I asked why, she said because some things felt so right.
    1. What can we learn from the first paragraph about the couple?
    A. They had deep feelings of their work
    B. They often threw the useless daily items away
    C. They liked helping others by sharing their things
    D. They often gave away the daily items they didn't use
    2. The couple placed the letter inside the box mainly to______.
    A. help the poor go through the difficulties
    B. let the poor know who gave away the things
    C. tell the poor how to use the items correctly
    D. tell the poor to pass on the spirit to others
    3. The couple liked this kind act because _______.
    A. they thought it was the right thing to do
    B. they had a good habit of saving things
    C. they often received telephone calls for help
    D. they hated being troubled by homeless people
    4. What's the best title for this passage?
    A. Boxes filled with compassion
    B. Good behavior leading to happiness
    C. The most important thing in our life
    D. Happiness coming from sharing things

          Many animal lovers would like to do more to help animals, but aren't sure where to start or feel like they
    just don't have the time. The good news is that there are many simple things you can do to help protect animals.
         Think twice before you decide
          The decisions you make when it comes to eating meat or other animal products can go a long way toward
    stopping the killing of animals. Consider eating a vegetarian (素食的) diet. If you aren't ready to make this change, there are still things you can do. Do not buy animal products from companies known to use practices that
    go against the law such as using drugs to increase milk production in cows.
         Help get the word out
         Getting the word out about the problems faced by animals can be as easy as putting up a notice on your
    car. Also, talk to your friends and family members about important issues that are related to animals. Give
    some simple advice to a friend with a new pet about the serious pet over-population problem we're facing. Turn
    to some books on the subject if you are not so clear about the advice you give your friend.
         Write a letter
         We've all heard the saying," The pen is more powerful than the sword". Put this idea to the protection of
    animals. If a company has practices or rules that are harmful to animals, write them a letter to let them know
    you are angry about them, and that you won't buy their products until they make some changes. Write letters
    to state and local legislators (立法者) to let them know how important it is that they support legislation that
    protects animals. Make them know that their actions will have a great effect on your vote.
         Be more loving
         If you're considering adding a dog or a cat to your family, think about getting one from a homeless-animal
    house rather than buying a pet. There are many wonderful animals just waiting for a home. By taking back an
    animal from there, you will be helping in the fight against pet over-population, as well as giving your money to
    those who are responsible for taking care of pitiful animals.
         Let your actions be an example to others
          It may sound simple,but one of the best ways to help animals is to let your actions speak to the world. You
    should do the following things first by yourself: Treat all living creatures with respect. Care about your pets and
    look after them well. Avoid (避免)entertainment places that use animals to perform. Support legislation (立法)
    that protects animals. All of these things set an example for others to follow.
                                                         Title: Ways of _  1__ animals
    Think about your __2__ carefully ●Don't eat meat or animal products.
    ●Don't buy animal __3___from companies that have illegal practices
