Ⅴ.Directions:Read the following passage. The passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.
To master a language one must be able to speak and understand the spoken language as well as to read and write. Lenin and his wife Krupskaya translated a long English book into Russian. But when they went to England in 1902, English people couldn't understand what was said to them. These days more and more foreigners are coming to China and more Chinese are going out to foreign countries to work or study. So the spoken language is becoming more and more important.
Speaking, of course, can't go without listening. If you want to pronounce a word correctly, first you must hear it correctly. The sounds of the Chinese and English languages are not exactly the same. If you don't
listen carefully, you'll find it difficult or even impossible to understand the native speakers.
Well, what about writing? Like speaking, it's to exchange ideas. People generally use shorter words and shorter sentences in their writing. The important thing is to make your idea clear in your head and then to write it in clear lively language.
Chinese students read far too slowly. If you read fast, you understand better. If you read too slowly, by the time you have reached the end of a page you have forgotten what the beginning is about. When you meet with new words, don't look them up in the dictionary. Guess the meaning from the context(上下文). You may not guess quite correctly the first time, but as new words come up again and again in different contexts, their meaning will become clearer and clearer. If you look up every word, you'll never finish a book.
Students of a foreign language need a particular knowledge, the knowledge of the life, history and geography of the people whose language they are studying. They should study these subjects in the foreign language, not only in translation. In this way one can kill two birds with one stone: learn a foreign language and get some knowledge of the foreign country at the same time.
1. In the first paragraph, the writer mainly told us_____ .
A. how to speak English well
B. how to read and write English
C. why spoken English is very important
D. why English people couldn't understand Lenin
2. In order to study a foreign language, the writer thinks the best way is_____ .
A. to kill two birds with one stone
B. to learn two languages at a time
C. to study all the subjects in a foreign language
D. to get some knowledge of the foreign country as well as learn the language
3. In the fourth paragraph the writer gave some advice on_____ .
A. how to improve reading speed
B. how to guess the meaning from the context
C. how to look up new words in the dictionary
D. how to grasp the general meaning of a passage
4. “To kill two birds with one stone〞 means_____ .
A. to get some particular knowledge
B. to get more than what one pays
C. the stone is too big
D. the birds are blind enough
Ⅵ.Directions: Complete the following passage by filling in each blank
with one word that best fits the context.
Global rating system is for computer and video games.
There are ___1__ parts to the new system: an age rating and an indication of the content of the game. In future, all games, whether for computer ___2__video, must feature an age rating on the front cover indicating that the game is only suitable for users aged at or___3__the particular age listed.

appeal 意为“呼吁〞，故此处选B。

句意为：红十字会正在呼吁大家竭尽全力向地震灾区捐献物品。

4. 解析：选A。

上句的句意为：你错过了最有趣的局部。

所以下句应会表示可惜What a shame！表示“真可惜啊！〞

前后两句是比照关系，应选A，此处while意为“然而〞。
