You can 18 yourself to think in English in this way. The first step is to think of the words that you use daily, simple everyday words 19 book, shoe or tree. For example, whenever you 20 a book, you should think of it in English instead of in your mother language.
After you have learned to think of several words in English, then move on to the next step — thinking in 21 . Listening and repeating is a very useful 22 to learn a language. Listen first and don't care too much about 23 you fully understand what you're hearing. Try to repeat what you hear. The more you listen, the 24 you learn.

（A）
One day, I happened to meet an Englishman in the street and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English, the foreigner seemed to be very surprised, gently shaking his head and saying, “You don't say!” I was puzzled (困惑的), and I thought, “Perhaps this is not a right thing to talk about.” So I said to him, “Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? Have you ever been there?”
“Certainly! Everyone back home will laugh at me if I leave here without seeing it. The Great Wall is wonderful.” “Yes, it is one of the wonders in the world. And people of many countries have come to visit it.” As I went on telling him more about it, he stopped me again, “You don't say!”
I couldn't help asking, “Why do you ask me not to talk about it?”
“Well, I didn't ask you to do so,” he answered, greatly surprised.
“Didn't you say ‘You don't say!’?” I asked.
Hearing this, the foreigner laughed loudly. He began to explain, “‘You don't say!’ means
‘Really.’ Perhaps you know little about English idioms (习语).”
Wow! How foolish I was! Since then I have been careful with English idioms.

（B）
There are three common questions about how to improve our English.
The first question is about real English. Some students say that they want to learn real English. But they don’t know what to do. Watching English films is a good way. When we are tired after studying for a long time, we can watch an English film to relax. While watching it, we can also learn real English at the same time.
The second question is about speaking. Most students feel too shy to talk with foreigners. “Where are you from?” “What do you think of China?” These are both good questions to start a conversation. Before we begin, take a deep breath and smile! Smiling always helps.
The third question is about vocabulary. We want to remember all the new words. The problem is that we write them down but forget them soon. Write eight or ten words on a piece of paper and put it in our bedroom. Try to remember them. Spell the words whenever we see them, and change them every day. There is another way, when you’re shopping, counting the English words or saying the English names for everything you see as much as possible.
31．According to the second paragraph, what can we do to learn real English?
A．Talk to foreign friends.B．Remember all words.C．Watch English films.D．Write down words on paper.
32．In this passage, what’s the problem with most of the students speaking English?
A．Too shy to talk to foreigners.B．Don’t know how to learn real English. C．Can’t remember English words.D．Want to watch English films.
33．How can we start a conversation with foreigners?
A．By taking a deep breath.B．By looking at them and smile.
C．By introducing ourselves to them.D．By asking some good questions.
34．If we want to remember new words, we can write them down and ________ whenever we see them.
A．search them B．forget them C．spell them D．say them out 35．Which part of a magazine may the passage come from?
A．Learning tips.B．English stories.C．Foreign culture.D．Students’ life.
（C）
People often ask me for suggestions about how to learn English. As for it, everyone is different. I’ll share some of my experience. I once took a school year English course in Wuhan University, but I mostly learned English on my own.
One thing I can tell you is that, once you’ve started learning, you should try to think in English as much as you can. If you see something when you’re riding your bike or walking down the street, just think about “How would I say them in English?” At first, it might be with simple words or phrases, but later you should think about longer phrases and sentences. Now I’m in America, and for most of the time, I would think in English and speak it directly. It’s amazing how much this helps.
For several years after I started learning, I was often afraid of talking with others in English because I didn’t want to make mistakes. Finally I got it over. And while traveling in America, I’d try to hang out with friends who couldn’t speak Chinese, so that I’d have no choice but to speak English. And I also decided that if I said something stupid and other people laughed at me, then so be it. After that, my English started improving much more quickly.
Besides, it may be a good idea to ask your American friends to look at the way you’re writing, and give you some suggestions for improvement.
36．The writer learned English in Wuhan University for about _______.
A．a week B．a month C．a term D．a year 37．According to the writer, _______ is a good way to improve your English.

38．The underlined phrase “got it over” in Paragraph 3 means “_______” in English.
A．stick to it B．depend on it C．overcome it D．understand it 39．To the writer’s surprise, his English improved quickly _______.
A．in the university B．in the middle school C．in China D．in America 40．The best title for this passage should be _______.
A．The Importance of English
B．My English Learning Experience

Free lodging is provided in China, but only if you speak English. Visitors hoping to see China will get free lodging in Chinese homes if they give their English language skills to Chinese.
A Chinese organization called Tourboarding started this activity last month. Visitors must speak at least two hours of English a day in return for their keep while their Chinese hosts can learn English from them for free.
“In the past 30 days, 5,000 Chinese families have signed up,” said Ken Chen, 38, one of the founding members of Tourboarding. Chen said the aim of the organization was not to make money but to provide chances for the millions of Chinese to learn English.
Tourboarding hopes to give foreigners cheap accommodation in China, especially in Shanghai, as hotel prices have increased quickly.
Travelers can choose to exchange their language for free living, tour guiding or even Chinese cooking lessons. Yang Yang, 16, a female student in Shanghai advertises her house. “The house is next to a lake and the air is clean. We can offer single rooms for you to live in. My parents want me to invite a woman.”
Chen said Yang was just one example of a rising number of Chinese opening their homes to
foreigners in the hope of improving their English.
