We must practise speaking and writing the language whenever we can.“練習非常重要。所以選B。根據(jù)第二段中的”A good memory is a great help， but it is not enough only to memorize the rules from a grammar book.“好的記憶力是會很有幫助，但是光從語法書上記憶語法規(guī)則是不夠的；以及第三段中的”If we are pleased with a few rules we have memorized， we are not really learning the language. We must learn through use. Practice is important. “如果我們對于記點語法規(guī)則就很滿足，但在并不是真正在學語言。推斷有些人說不好，是因為在說這方面，他有猶豫要不要練習說這門語言，故選D。 （2）考查推理判斷。 （1）考查細節(jié)理解。t have a good memory always remembers lists of words and their meanings often hesitates(猶豫)to practise speaking it（3）One can never learn a foreign language well by . doesn39。D.Listening, speaking, reading and writingC.. A. There are no shortcuts to success in language learning. A good memory is a great help, but it is not enough only to memorize the rules from a grammar book. It is not much learning by heart long lists of words and their meanings, studying the dictionary and so on. We must learn by using the language.4．閱讀理解 根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容可知，本文主要是講培養(yǎng)興趣愛好非常重要，我們應該有興趣愛好，故選B。故選A。 （3）考查句義猜測。 （2）考查推理判斷。 （1）考查段落大意。To tell us how to create a happy life.D.To introduce some helpful hobbies.B.s the author39。d better develop a hobby at school.D.t easy.C.We should start a hobby now.B.They sometimes can bring us stress.D.They may take up too much time.B.People39。s people have little time for hobbies.C.All people should learn to relax.B.s next great people.

Hobbies in general are being something of the past. Our lives are already filled with classes, homework, working, relationships and sleeping.

One reason may be that the US does not teach maths in enough depth. Students are often good at answering the first part of a problem in the United States, said Andreas Schleicher, director of education and skills at OECD. But as soon as students have to go deeper and answer the more plicated part of a problem, they have difficulties. In parison, many highperforming countries and regions in maths teach a lot less but focus in much greater depth, especially when you look at East Asia, Japan and Singapore, according to Schleicher.US scores in reading and science were about the same as three years ago, leaving Americans near the middle of the bigger group. But the situation in maths is much more worrying. The US average score was 470,below the OECD(經(jīng)合組織) test average of 490,meaning the US was among the 72 countries and areas. It was 12 points lower than in 2012 and 18 points lower than in 2009. So, what is going on with American students39。 Recently, people in the US education have got extremely worried because a new report has shown that American students have a maths problem. 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和主旨大意三個題型的考查，是一篇文化類閱讀，要求考生在捕捉細節(jié)信息的基礎上，進一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關系，進行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“The researchers suggest that these crocodile tears occur because a crocodilian hisses (發(fā)出嘶嘶聲)while it cats, and this hissing forces air through the spaces in the bone behind the nose and out the eye, in the process picking up nasolacrimal secretions”研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)這些鱷魚的眼淚是因為它們在進食時發(fā)出的嘶嘶聲，這種聲音迫使空氣通過鼻子背后的空間從眼睛出來，在這個過程中帶出了鼻內(nèi)管分泌物，可知，作者通過對“crocodile tears”這一詞條的來源、發(fā)展以及相關實驗來告訴讀者有關“crocodile tears”的真實含義。故選B。 （3）考查細節(jié)理解。 however, this sadness is not honest.”是指假傷心，假慈悲。 （2）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的“dating back several centuries”追溯到幾個世紀前；以及“As early as the fourth century, crocodile tears are referenced in the literature with the meaning of insincere sorrow.”早在公元4世紀，鱷魚的眼淚在文學作品中的意思是假慈悲，可推知， etymology 和一個詞條的來源和發(fā)展相關。In humans, crocodile tears is a medical condition that causes a person to tear up while eating. Crocodile tears typically occur because of a temporary loss of facial control due to damage of the facial nerve. Specifically, when the facial nerve grows again, it does so incorrectly thus resulting in tears during chewing food.（1）The underlined word etymology in Paragraph 1 refers to ________. reference book containing
