We all agree, surely – memorizing poetry is a good thing, and children ought to
do it. But people do object. At least, they object to the idea that children should be
forced to learn poetry. They tend to be people like Michael Rosen. Rosen has more
practical objections to children having to learn poetry by the government’s order.
Actually, Rosen is all for learning poetry, “when it feels right”, which is, he says,
“one of those vague phrases much hated by people in authority and yet it is at the
heart of good teaching”.
He’s onto something about the timing, but that doesn’t mean policymakers
are wrong to insist on pupils learning poetry. The problem is that some influential
educationists have come to see learning by heart as a waste of time when
tomorrow’s adults will want skills more than information.
Let’s come to the most important objectors–children. Their objection tends to
come in the least offensive form. It comes in the question: “Why are we doing
this?” It’s a worthwhile inquiry. I teach at Sherborne School, where boys do learn
poetry; and luckily there’s time in our lessons to answer that question.
Here’s one of the answers I give. There’ll be one time when your good friend is
going to introduce you to someone with whom he wants to spend the rest of his life.
There’ll be a ceremony to honour this union, and words will be very important.
You’re likely to be the one who has to stand up and say, “Let me not to the
marriage of true minds/ Admit impediment…” And when you do that, you’re going
to be speaking for everyone in the room. Now, everybody breathes sigh of relief.
Learning poetry and reciting poetry forces us to think of it in this public way.
However mysterious and intimate poetry seems, we need to remember it’s
something we also share, and offer each other. So take some, and pass it on.
24. What does the underlined word “it” in the first paragraph refer to?
A. The right timing. B. The poetry with vague phrases.
C. The government’s order. D. The natural way to learn poetry.
25. Which of the following would be favored by some influential educationists?
A. To guide children how to recite poetry.
B. To instruct children on how to get information.
C. To teach students real life skills for the future.
D. To force children to obey the government policy.
26. As for the children’s question, the teacher should _______.
A. consider it offensive B. take it seriously
C. dismiss it as worthless D. discuss it after class
27. What’s the writer’s attitude towards poetry learning?
A. Objective. B. Supportive. C. Critical D. Disapproving.
C
Jane Austen began her second novel, Pride and Prejudice, before she was twenty-one. It was
originally titled First Impression because the appearances of the characters created the plot of the
novel. However, because the novel is also concerned with effects of the characters' first
impressions,which is their prejudice. Austen found the title Pride and Prejudice more suitable.
The tone of the novel is light, and satirical（讽刺）. Scenes such as Mr.Collin's proposal（求
婚）to Elizabeth, and Lady Catherine's visits to Lizzy at Long Bourn, provide humorous relief to the
readers while at the same time showing certain features of the characters. For example, Lydia's lack
of common sense and responsibility is showed when she takes pride in being the First Bennet girl
to be married. Elizabeth Bennet's ability to laugh off her bad luck and to continue to be cheerful
also contributes to the tone of the novel.
As a result, the mood of the novel lacks dramatic emotions. The atmosphere is cold; there are
little description of the setting. The main actions of the novel are the interactions between opinions,
ideas, and attitudes,which advance the plot of the novel. The emotions in the novel are to be
considered beneath the surface of the story and not to be expressed to the readers directly.
＂It is a truth universally believed that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in
want of a wife."In this statement, Austin has cleverly done three things: she has declared that the
main subject of the novel will be marriage, she has recognized the humorous tone of the novel by
taking a simple subject to speak intelligently of, and she has prepared the reader for chase in the
novel of either a husband in search of a wife, or a woman in pursuit of a husband.
28. Characters in Pride and Prejudice impressed people with________.
A. Prejudice B. pride C. ignorance D. honesty
29. The second paragraph develops by_________.
A. following the order of time B. providing different examples
C. making comparisons D. analyzing causes
30. The first sentence in the 4th paragraph is to prove_______.
A. the truth of a marriage B. the wisdom of Jane Austen
C. the popularity of the novel D. the main subject of the novel
31. The passage may be ___________.
A. an introduction to a novel B. a biography of Jane Austen
C. a review on pride and prejudice D. a background for Pride and Prejudice
D
When Peter Fortune was ten years old, grown-up people sometimes used to tell him he was a
“difficult”child. He never understood what they meant. He didn’t feel difficult at all. He didn’t
throw milk bottles at the garden wall, or tip tomato ketchup over his head and pretend it was blood,
or slash at his granny’s ankle with his sword, though he occasionally thought of these things. Apart
from all vegetables except potatoes, and fish, eggs and cheese, there was nothing he would not eat.
He wasn’t noisier or dirtier or more stupid than anyone he knew. His name was easy to say and spell.
His face, which was pale and freckled, was easy enough to remember. He went to school every day
like all other children and never made that much fuss about it. He was only as offensive to his sister
as she was to him. Policemen never came knocking at the front door wanting to arrest him. Doctors
in white coats never offered to take him away to the madhouse. As far as Peter was concerned, he
was really quite easy. What was difficult about him?
It was not until he had been a grown-up himself for many years that Peter finally understood.
They thought he was difficult because he was so silent. That seemed to bother people. The other
problem was he liked being by himself. Not all the time, of course. Not even every day. But most
days he liked to go off somewhere for an hour to his bedroom, or the park. He liked to be alone and
think his thoughts.
Now, grown-ups like to think they know what’s going on inside a ten-year-old’s head. And it’s
impossible to know what someone is thinking if they keep quiet about it. People would see Peter
lying on his back on a summer’s afternoon, chewing a piece of grass and staring at the sky. “Peter,
Peter! What are you thinking about?” they would call to him. And Peter would sit up with a start.
“Oh, nothing. Nothing at all.”Grown-ups knew that something was going on inside that head, but
they couldn’t hear it or see it or feel it. They couldn’t tell Peter to stop it, because they did not know
what it was he was doing in there. He could have been setting his school on fire or feeding his sister
to an alligator and escaping in a hot air balloon, but all they saw was a boy staring at the blue sky
without blinking, a boy who did not hear you when you called his name.
As for being on his own, grown-ups didn’t much like that either. They don’t even like other
grown-ups being on their own. When you join in, people can see what you’re up to. You’re up to
what they’re up to. You have to join in, or you’ll spoil it for everyone else. Peter had different ideas.
In fact, he thought, if people spent less time joining in and making others join in, and spent a little
time each day alone remembering who they were or who they might be, then the world would be a
happier place and wars might never happen...
The trouble with being a daydreamer who doesn’t say much is that the teachers at school,
especially the ones who don’t know you very well, are likely to think you are rather stupid. Or, if not
stupid, then dull. No one can see the amazing things that are going on in your head. A teacher who
saw Peter staring out the window or at a blank sheet of paper on his desk might think that he was
bored, or stuck for an answer. But the truth was quite different.
32. It can be learned from the first paragraph that ________.
A. Peter liked playing practical jokes B. Peter wasn’t particular about food at all
C. boys generally did some crazy things D. Peter knew why he was called“difficult”
33. Which of the following would Peter be most likely to do?
A. To walk around a lake for quite a while. B. To break the neighbor’s fence for fun.
C. To tie a dirty dustbin to a dog’s tail. D. To sleep in the tent with his friends.
34. What is the main reason that Peter was considered“difficult”by grown-ups?
A. He was far from communicative. B. He turned a deaf ear to others.
C. He did not do well in his studies. D. He preferred to live on his own.
35. What might the author continue to write about in the following part?
A. Effective measures to help Peter out.
B. How the unique ideas Peter had amazed others.
C. Difficulties keeping Peter from learning well.
D. Further prejudice against Peter among grown-ups.

Regardless of whether English is your first language, you won't make a good impression if you
can't write well. 36 To improve your written English, learn the rules for correct grammar and
punctuation and thoroughly proofread your written work. A large vocabulary will also help your
writing stand out. Above all, be willing to practice every day and put in the work to build strong
English writing skills.
Expand Your Vocabulary
You’d better read books written in English. Books and magazines can introduce you to new
words, provided you pay attention to the words and look up the ones you don't know rather than
skipping over them. 37 Read the whole definition for the word, and think about how the author
is using it in context. You may consider doing crossword puzzles to practice vocabulary. Crossword
puzzles give you an opportunity to learn new words, as well as recall words you've learned and think
about different contexts and meanings of words you already know.
38
To improve grammar, you should never ignore the importance of reading out your writing loud.
Grammar and punctuation errors stand out when you read your writing out. As you read, pay
attention to where you pause and make sure your punctuation reflects those pauses. Read the whole
piece from beginning to end, looking at how the sentences flow together. You’d better also spend
much time studying word usage to get the hang of grammar and punctuation. There are many
websites that have free grammar and word usage lessons, tips, and exercises. 39
Develop Good Writing Habits
Use a conversational writing style. The most readable writing is that written in the way people
talk. So Keep your sentence structure simple, and use mostly common, ordinary words that most
people know. And remember to outline longer or more complex pieces. If you're writing something
longer than a paragraph, or if you need to make several different points, an outline will help you
organize your thoughts. 40 That is because you won't be worried about forgetting
something. Lastly, read over everything you write, even something as short as a text message. Over
time, you'll notice an improvement in your first drafts.
A. Improve Grammar and Punctuation.
B. Read your own writing out aloud.
C. It will also make your writing flow more easily.
D. People may assume you are uneducated, careless, or have a poor work ethic.
E. Talking to actual native speakers is the most effective way to improve your English skills.
F. You can use these to learn new skills and practice incorporating them into your writing.
G. Keep a dictionary nearby when you're reading, and look up any word you don't know.

Over the centuries Shakespeare’s plays have gained a reputation for being difficult to
understand. But if his work is experienced on stage as Shakespeare intended, then it can become
much clearer. In fact 95% of the words used in Shakespeare’s plays are the same words we use
today.
The meanings of some words have altered significantly, ___41___, because Shakespeare was
writing at a time of great linguistic change. This gave him a certain amount of ___42___ license in
his language.
So what can Shakespeare’s plays tell us about how people really spoke at this time? And did
anyone really speak like his characters? The lines spoken by Corin to Rosalind and Celia in As You
Like It probably weren’t ___43___of an Elizabethan shepherd.
The first thing to remember about Shakespeare’s work is that he wrote plays to entertain. They
are ___44___ works, and the dialogue was drawn on to suit the stage. Therefore his characters’
language did not always ___45___ how real people would have spoken.
For instance, in As You Like It when Corin, the shepherd, talks of love, his lines are beautiful
and poetic – but ___46___ unrealistic. The lines Shakespeare gave Corin probably wouldn’t have
been used by an Elizabethan shepherd – instead they ___47___ to highlight the drama.
Another example of how the theatrical style enriched Shakespeare’s text can be seen in the
structure of his lines. According to the practice of the time, Shakespeare wrote his poems in iambic
pentameter(抑扬格五音步) so it was ___48___ for his actors to learn. When Shakespeare was
writing, new plays were performed every day so this 10-beat structure was a great help for anyone
having to learn a lot of lines for the next day’s play.
___49___ this structure meant that, on occasion, Shakespeare made up or adapted words to fit.
___50___, on several occasions Shakespeare changed the word “vast” to “vasty” when “vast” did
not fit the ___51___ of the line. But if we look beyond the dialogue to the words themselves we can
find out a little of how people really spoke.
We can come close to this thanks to “original pronunciation” which is a system of ___52___
that reproduce how the Elizabethans are believed to have spoken. Today it sounds like a West
Country accent, with echoes of other parts of the country. When we ___53___ this to Shakespeare’s
dialogue, rhymes and puns(押韵与双关) that are not heard in modern English are suddenly revealed.
So through Shakespeare’s plays we can ___54___ a great deal about how people really spoke.
His dialogue was on the whole representative of the language of the time and area and now provides
us with invaluable insight into a(n) ___55___ language.
41. A. otherwise B. furthermore C. however D. hence
42. A. creative B. significant C. limited D. practical
43. A. critical B. typical C. proud D. afraid
44. A. valuable B. outstanding C. efficient D. dramatic
45. A. reflect B. mean C. sign D. signal
46. A. luckily B. basically C. generally D. naturally
47. A. construct B. produce C. function D. illustrate
48. A. easier B. worse C. wiser D. slower
49. A. Falling into B. Varying from C. Agreeing to D. Sticking to
50. A. By contrast B. For example C. What’s more D. In consequence
51. A. structure B. style C. rhythm D. form
52. A. speech B. writing C. communication D. symbol
53. A. fit B. devote C. apply D. input
54. A. keep up B. find out C. take on D. bring about
55. A. lost B. difficult C. ongoing D. global

Dear Mr. Smith,
I am Li Hua, a regular customer of Amazon. I’m sorry to trouble you, but I have to make a
complaint about the school bag I purchased last week.
When receiving the school bag, I was disappointed to find the color was quite different from
what was shown in the advertisement. What also annoyed me was that there were several black spots
on the bag, which couldn’t be wiped away. For the reasons above, I strongly demand either the
school bag be exchanged or I be compensated with full refund.
Looking forward to your prompt reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
