阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项的标号涂黑。 One of the speaking rules you need to know might sound strange to most ESL(English as a second language) students, but it is one of the most important rules. If you want to pass examinations, then study grammar. However, if you want to become fluent in English, then you should try to learn English without studying the grammar. Studying grammar will only slow you down and confuse you. You will think about the rules when creating sentences instead of naturally saying a sentence like a native. Remember that only a small fraction(部分) of English speakers know more than 20% of all the grammar rules. Many ESL students know more grammar than native speakers. I can confidently say this with experience. I am a native English speaker, majored in English Literature, and have been teaching English for more than 10 years. However, many of my students know more details about English grammar than I do. When they sometimes ask me about grammar, I can easily look up the definition(定义) and apply it, but I can’t tell them the answer off the top of my head. I often ask my native English friends some grammar questions, and only a few of them know the correct answer. However, they are fluent in English and can read, speak, listen, and communicate effectively. Do you want to be able to recite the definition of a causative verb(使役动词), or do you want to be able to speak English fluently? 1.According to the author, what opinion do most ESL students hold? A. Grammar matters a lot only in speaking. B. Grammar doesn’t matter much in speaking. C. Grammar is not important in English learning. D. Grammar is very important in English learning. 2. What is the author? A. An ESL student. B. A native English teacher. C. A native English student. D. A teacher teaching English natives. 3. The underlined part “off the top of my head” means ________. A. without consideration B. on purpose C. after thinking D. with difficulty 4.Which of the following titles best suits the text? A. Grammar Counts! B. Fluency or Grammar? C. Exams or No Exams? D. No More Grammar!

There is much more to growing up in a bilingual(双语的) family than learning two languages, and the cultural influences from both cultures are just as important. In July we had a curious incident that shows the slight differences between cultures. My son has already changed a few of his baby teeth and since we lived in Italy we decided to go with the Italian version(版本) of the Tooth Fairy, which is not a fairy(仙女) but a little mouse. So last year when he lost his first tooth we had a visit from the little mouse who took the tooth away and left a rather good amount of coins --- when he lost the second tooth a few days later, however, the amount was significantly less! That in itself caused quite a few questions, but the real questions started when in July during a visit to the UK another tooth left my son’s mouth in Tooth Fairy land! The grandparents made a real problem out of it --- it was their first grandson’s tooth they got to say Goodbye to, so it was Tooth Fairy and rather generous, too! The Qs & As Son: Mum, how is the little mouse going to smell my tooth all this way? (as the story goes the little mouse smells a milk tooth and comes to collect it) Me: No dear, it won’t! We are in England now so the Tooth Fairy will come. Son: Oh, is she stronger than the little mouse? (I knew where this was going) Me: She is very strong, and she is magic. Son: What does the Tooth Fairy bring? (straight to the point) Me: I am not sure. We’ll find out maybe a nice message. Son: So is the little mouse coming too? Me: No, it won’t make it all the way from Italy. Son: But why don’t they have little mice in England? Me: Because here the Tooth Fairy collects all baby teeth and she’s too fast, so the little mouse would always get there late. Son: Oh!? 1.Italian kids are supposed to believe ________ will come and collect the milk teeth. A. a little mouse B. Tooth Fairy C. their parents D. the grandparents 2.The author thought Tooth Fairy would be rather generous because ________. A. Italian parents often give much money for their kids’ lost baby teeth[ B. she knew Tooth Fairy was more generous than the little mouse C. she knew the grandparents would give her son a big gift D. English people are usually more generous than Italians 3.Hearing “Oh, is she stronger than the little mouse?”, the author knew her son was actually worried about ________. A. the tooth fairy’s health B. the little mouse’s coming C. the amount of coins he could get D. the story his grandparents know 4.By telling this story, the author intends to say it’s important to _________ in a bilingual family.
A. make kids know the folk stories B. help kids choose one of the cultures C. teach kids two languages D. keep the balance of both cultures

The “Sepik Spirit”, constructed in 1989, is built specially to suit the demands of a shallow riverboat for guiding inland waterways. Its shallow draft allows passengers into distant corners of the Sepik Region and areas not otherwise accessible to larger boats. It was refurbished(装修) in early 2006 to ensure that the Sepik Spirit meets the expectations of the modern travellers. The refurbishment includes new interior and improved noise resistance. The Sepik Spirit holds 18 passengers in 9 twin bedrooms each with private bathroom. Onboard facilities include a dining room, living room, bar, video and covered upper observatory deck(甲板). The entire boat is air-conditioned. Because the Sepik Spirit is designed to operate in this unique environment, she is the ideal size for exploration. This, combined with small passenger numbers, allows the travellers an excellent experience to little visited areas. Day trips from the Sepik Spirit are done in an 18-seater riverboat, also designed for the operation. Their open-air design gives the travellers a sense of place, a feeling for the river and its people. Areas that the Sepik Spirit and her guests may visit are the Karawari River, Blackwater Lakes, Chambri Lakes, the Middle Sepik and the Upper Sepik. The river banks where the boat operates are dotted with many large traditional villages each with its own unique “Haus Tambaran” or spirit house decorated with ancestral figures. Mix with the friendly people and experience a culture that meets very few outsiders. Please E-Mail if you want to know more about us. Please note that private touring and transfers are not available on the Sepik Spirit. Please note that Sepik Spirit departure and termination(终结，终点) points sometimes change without notice. AIR TRANSFER COST: US$375.00 one way 1.The “Sepik Spirit” is a riverboat ________. A. specially designed and built for the local transportation B. built and refurbished in 1989 C. providing good conditions for a small number of tourists D. traveling in the day only 2.The Sepik Spirit boat is most possibly named after ________.

Researches show what we already suspected: Three out of four babies who died of SIDS(婴儿猝死) involved co-sleeping. We’ll say it again. The safest course is not to sleep with babies. We know the argument: Bad parenting, not co-sleeping, is to blame for the dozens of babies’ deaths. Some parents stick to co-sleeping because it helps them bond with their newborns. They say those who give co-sleeping a bad name either had been drinking, used drugs or were too tired to notice that they rolled over on their children. But, most of the cases did not involve drugs or alcohol. There’s a “but” here, however. Submitting to a test for drugs or alcohol in these cases is voluntary, so it’s difficult to know with certainty. Organizations like the Black Health Coalition and others have explained the safe way to co-sleep. While we understand those arguments, we also know that mistakes can happen and that it only takes one time for something to go terribly wrong. The risk outweighs the benefit. In all likelihood, parents will continue to co-sleep, and some will do so without ever having an incident, but babies are too vulnerable(易受伤的) for parents to take such chances. Therefore, the best place for babies to sleep is in their own beds, on their backs, with no pillows, blankets or toys. No parent wants a tragedy(悲剧) to occur. The best way to make sure the tragedy doesn’t happen is to allow babies to sleep alone in their own cribs(摇篮). 1.According to the author, most of the SIDS cases happened because of ________. A. drugs B. co-sleeping C. drinking D. bad parenting 2.Some parents think sleeping with their babies can ________. A. keep the babies healthy B. give co-sleeping a good name C. prevent themselves from drinking D. develop a good relation with their babies 3.The author holds the opinion that ________. A. parents can sleep with babies, but cautiously B. co-sleep helps to bring babies closer to parents C. parents can’t take chances to sleep with their babies D. accidents only happen to those careless parents 4.Which of the following best describes the structure of the text? A. ① B. ①② C. ① D. ① ↙↘ ↓ ↙↓↘ ↙↓↓↘ ②③ ④ ③④ ②③④ ②③④⑤ ↘ ↙ ↓ ↘↓↙ ⑤ ⑤ ⑤
