Most students try to learn English grammar using grammar textbooks. They study grammar rules and take grammar tests. They use an analytical（分析的） approach, attempting to memorize, and then apply, a great number of rules. However, research has proved this method inefficient and ineffective. The truth is, the human brain simply cannot consciously remember process and use hundreds of or thousands of grammar rules. Real speech is too fast. Native speakers do not learn grammar in this way, but rather intuitively (凭直觉地) and unconsciously. They learn in a complete way, not by attempting to memorize individual grammar rules. As a result, native speakers use correct grammar fluently and easily. Fortunately, it is possible for English learners to learn grammar this way. Language teacher Blaine Ray has developed a unique "intuitive" approach to teach English grammar. Her system uses "point of view" stories to teach the patterns of English grammar, allowing students unconsciously to acquire correct grammar without ever studying grammar rules. In this system, the teacher first tells a simple story from one point of view. It may be told about the past, then repeated, but beginning with "since he was a child"; then repeated again, but this time about the future. Listening to these stories allows students intuitively and effortlessly to learn English grammar and makes them be able to use it correctly when they speak. Point of View Stories is a creative new way to study English grammar, and offers hope to millions of frustrated English learners. 1.Which of the following ways is approved by the author? A. Remembering grammar rules. B. Taking grammar tests. C. Analyzing grammatical structure. D. Applying language to situations. 2.What does the underlined part "this way" in the fourth paragraph refer to? A. Talking to native speakers when learning. B. Learning English grammar in a complete way. C. Using correct English grammar. D. Learning English grammar from a teacher. 3.From this passage we learn that ______. A. native speakers learn English grammar by listening to stories B. Blaine Ray’s method gets students to grasp correct grammar unconsciously C. Blaine Ray teaches grammar rules by asking students to tell stories D. it’s hard for students to speak correct English in the new system 4.This passage wants to ______. A. criticize the traditional way of learning grammar B. introduce a new way to study English grammar C. ask students to learn English grammar by listening to stories D. tell us how the native speakers learn English grammar 5.Why shouldn’t the English learners use an analytical approach? A. because the analytical approach can let them learn English grammar effortlessly B. because the analytical approach makes them be able to use English correctly when they speak. C. because the analytical approach can’t let them memorize and then apply a great number of rules. D. because Real speech is too fast.

Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer. A Survey has been made recently to make out what are the public opinion on the one-child policy. Here are the results of it. Many teenagers suggest they should have a brother or sister. Perhaps they feel this might make up for a gap in their own lives, Bao Yunlu, a Senior 2 boy from the No.8 Middle School in Hefei, Anhui Province, often dreams of having an elder sister, “I want her to help me with my homework, share my feelings and take care of me,” he said. But last week Li Honggui, head of the China Family Planning Association (CFPA), caused a hot discussion when he told newspapers there would be no change to the current one-child policy. It will remain the provincial governments’ right to decide on individual cases. The one-child policy began in 1978. Now China had nearly 100 million single child families, one-third of the total. The policy has successfully slowed down Chinese population growth by 10 million babies a year. But there are problems. As the centre of the family’s attention they do not know about the hardships of life. “The one-child generation has no idea of thrift (节俭)” said XingYuan, professor of sociology at Shanxi University. Some of them also don’t know how to get on well with others. Bao agreed that being an only child has had a bad effect on his personality. “We are less tolerant (宽容) and considerate than our schoolmates who have brothers or sisters.” He said. But others don’t agree. “I don’t feel the difference between me and my classmates who have a brother or sister. They often complain to me about quarrelling with their brothers or sisters. I feel lucky to have nobody to steal my belongings,” said Bai Yijing, a Senior 1 girl from the Middle School Attached to Beijing Petroleum Institute. What’s your opinion? Let us know it, please.

Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet. How we look and how we appear to others probably worry us more when we are in our teens or early twenties than at any other time in our life. Few of us are content to accept ourselves as we are, and few are brave enough to ignore the trends of fashion. Most fashion magazines or TV advertisements try to persuade us that we should dress in a certain way or behave in a certain manner. If we do, they tell us, we will be able to meet new people with confidence and deal with every situation confidently and without embarrassment. Changing fashion, of course, does not apply just to dress. A barber today does not cut a boy’s hair in the same way as he used to, and girls do not make up in the same way as their mothers and grandmothers did. The advertisers show us the latest fashionable styles and we are constantly under pressure to follow the fashion in case our friends think we are odd or dull. What causes fashions to change? Sometimes convenience or practical necessity or just the fancy of an influential person can establish a fashion. Take hats for example. In cold climates, early buildings were cold inside, so people wore hats indoors as well as outside. In recent times, the late President Kennedy caused a depression in the American hat industry by not wearing hats; more American men followed his example. There is also a cyclical pattern in fashion. In the 1920’s in Europe and America, short skirts became fashionable. After World War II, they dropped to ankle length. Then they got shorter and shorter and the miniskirt was in fashion. After a few more years, skirts became longer again. Today, society is much freer and easier than it used to be. It is no longer necessary to dress like everyone else. Within reason, you can dress as you like or do your hair the way you like instead of the way you should because it is the fashion. The popularity of jeans and the “unity” look seems to be a reaction against the increasingly expensive fashion of the top fashion houses. 1.What do the fashion magazines or TV advertisements claim to bring us?(No more than 1 word) 2.Why does the writer take President Kennedy as an example?(No more than 12 words) 3.What does the writer try to explain by talking about short skirts? (No more than 7 words) 4.Why are jeans so popular according to the writer? (No more than 10 words)
