There are about fifteen hundred languages in the world. But only a few of them are very important. English is one of these. Many, many people use it, not only inEnglandand theUSA, but also in other parts of the world. About 200,000,000 people speak it as their

own language. It is difficult to say how many people are learning it as a foreign language. Many millions of people are trying to do so. Is it easy or difficult to learn English? Different people may have different answers. Have you ever noticed ads of this kind in the newspapers or magazines? “Learn English in six weeks,or give your money back. .. “easy and funny. . . ”,“Our records and tapes help you master English in a month”. . . Of course,it never happened quite like this.

The only language that seems easy to learn is the mother tongue. We should remember that we all learned our own language well when we were children. If we could learn English in the same way,it would not seem so difficult. Think of what a small child does. He listens to what people say. He tries what he hears.

So it is hard to say that learning English is easy. We must do a lot of practice. And practice needs great effort and takes much time. Good teachers, records, tapes, books, and dictionaries will be helpful,but they cannot do the student’s work for him.

科目:初中英語 來源: 題型:

A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said,“I am blind,please help. ” There were only a few coins in the hat.

A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign,turned it around,and wrote some words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words.

Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized(認(rèn)出)his footsteps and asked,“Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?”

The man said,“I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different way. ”

What he had written was,“Today is a beautiful day but I cannot see it. ”

Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing?

Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply told people to help by putting some money in the hat. The second sign told people that they were able to enjoy the day, but the boy could not enjoy it because he was blind.

The first sign simply said -the boy was blind. The second sign reminded people they were lucky that they were not blind.

There are at least two lessons we can learn from this simple story. The first is : Be

thankful for what you have. Someone else has less. Help where you can. The second is:Be creative. Think differently. There is always a better way!
