Students who say they never or hardly ever used dictionaries often speak English well but usually write poorly, because they make many mistakes.

  The students who use dictionaries most do not learn especially well either. The ones who look up every new word do not read fast. Therefore they do not have time to read much. Those who use small two-language dictionaries have the worst problems. Their dictionaries often give only one or two words as a translation of English, but one English word often has many translations in a foreign language and one foreign word has many translations in English.

  The most successful students are those who use large college edition dictionaries with about 100,000 words but do not use them too often. When they are reading, these students first try to get the general idea and understand new words from the context (上下文). Then they reread and use the dictionary to look up only key words that they still do not understand. They use dictionaries more for writing. If they are not sure how to spell a word, or divide it into syllables (音節(jié)), they always use a dictionary. Also, if they think a noun might have an unusual plural form or a verb might have an unusual past form, they check these in a dictionary.

     When you read a story in English, do you read it for the story or   for the English? This is a 1 that is not so foolish 2 it may seem. For   I 3 that many students of English 4 far more attention to the story   than to the English. They read and 5 and for a long time 6 remember   the story, but do not care to study the 7 of words and 8 in it. For   instance, they care for the memory of 9 the mystery (神秘) in the   story is solved, but do not remember a 10 sentence in the story and   cannot 11 what preposition is used before or after a certain 12 in   the speech of a 13 character.

           

   Of course, it is all right to read and enjoy and 14 a story, and   so 15 as one wants to 16 the story only, one need not bother (費(fèi)心)   about the language. But the case is quite different with a 17 of   English. I mean a student of English is different from a student of   stories or 18 is called the general reader.

           

   As you may also have 19 from the above, you ought to read very 20.   Not only very carefully but also aloud, and that again and again 21   you know the passage by heart and can 22 it as if it were your own.   Positively (正面) this will teach you many 23 words and phrases;   negatively (負(fù)面) it will help you to avoid many errors and faults in   expression. Incidentally I have found from 24 that intelligent   copying is a help to 25 by heart.

  To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor, you must be able to 1 the attention and interest of your students, you must be a 2 speaker, with a good, strong, 3 voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to 4 what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.

   5 a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit still 6 his class: he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his 7 , hands and fingers to help him in his explanation, and his face to express feeling. Listen to him, and you will 8 the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is 9 about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn’t 10 that he will indeed be able to act 11 on the stage, for there are very important 12 between the teacher’s work and the actor’s. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the 13 words each time he plays a certain part, 14 his movements and the way in which he uses his voice are usually 15 before hand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem 16 on the stage.

  A good teacher 17 in quite a different way. His students take an active part in his 18 :they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don’t obey something, they will say no. The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the needs of the students. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must 19 it as he goes along.

  I have known many teachers who were fine 20 in class but unable to take part in a stage play because their brains wouldn’t keep discipline(規(guī)定): they could not keep strictly to what another had written.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
  

1A.pay   

  
  

B.hold   

  
  

C.give   

  
  

D.know   

  
  

2A.clear

完型填空

  To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor, you must be able to 1 the attention and interest of your students, you must be a 2 speaker, with a good, strong, 3 voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to 4 what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.

   5 a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit still 6 his class: he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his 7 , hands and fingers to help him in his explanation, and his face to express feeling. Listen to him, and you will 8 the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is 9 about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn’t 10 that he will indeed be able to act 11 on the stage, for there are very important 12 between the teacher’s work and the actor’s. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the 13 words each time he plays a certain part, 14 his movements and the way in which he uses his voice are usually 15 before hand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem 16 on the stage.

  A good teacher 17 in quite a different way. His students take an active part in his 18 :they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don’t obey something, they will say no. The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the needs of the students. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must 19 it as he goes along.

  I have known many teachers who were fine 20 in class but unable to take part in a stage play because their brains wouldn’t keep discipline(規(guī)定): they could not keep strictly to what another had written.
