                           These simple ways can increase your popularity(受歡迎度) and win you more friends, so why not try them?
● FOCUSING ON OTHERS   This will reduce any shyness you may have. You’ll be more relaxed and therefore more natural and fun. And you will get more good---people will love the fact that you’re paying attention to them while you don’t have to worry about what people think of you.
● LOOKING PEOPLE IN THE EYE   Making eye contact is very important because it shows you’re interested in them. If you let your eyes wander(游移) or keep looking over their shoulder, people will feel slighted, and they’ll like you less they would otherwise.
● ASKING QUESTIONS   Doing this gives you two advantages. It shows other people that you are indeed paying attention and that you consider what they are telling you important. Being sure to follow up when you’ve shared a conversation with someone about something important in his/her life, be sure to ask about it later. This shows that you listen and you care.
● MAKING AN EFFORT TO SMILE   A smile means acceptance, and that makes people open up to you. Make a conscious(有意識的) effort(努力) one day to smile at the people you stay or work with and watch how well they respond to you.
● BEING RELIABLE   People appreciate those who help them, and they quickly begin to hate those who don’t.
68. By fixing your attention on others, you will ______.
A. be more worried and tired            B. feel more confident
C. be paid less attention to               D. feel less liked
69. When having a conversation with people, you’d better NOT ______.
A. be open up to them                     B. fix your eyes on them
C. ask questions about them                    D. avoid looking at them
70. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Showing continuous care for others is appreciated.
B. Smiling at others can often be misunderstood.
C. Looking people in the eye will make them uncomfortable.
D. You don’t have to continue helping others if you don’t want to.
71. Which is the best title for this passage?
A. Ways to Make You More Natural                   B. Trying to Be a Polite Person
C. Making as Many Friends as Possible               D. Ways to Make You More Popular

             Stuck on a desert island?
Started on 23rd April by Steve           Posts 1--7 of 42
Post 1
Steve
USA
Hi, everyone. What would you miss most and least if you were stuck on a desert island? For me, it would be the changing seasons in New England. I guess this will sound stupid but I’d probably miss the rain, too. I wouldn’t miss getting up at six every day to go to work, though! What about you?
Post 2
Tomas
Germany
Good question, Steve. I think I’d miss different types of bread, and shopping at the supermarket. I’d miss the food most. What would I miss least? My mobile phone--I’d like to be completely quiet--at least for a little while.
Post 3
Paola
Italy
I would miss the company of people because I know I’d like to have someone to share experiences with. I’d go mad on my own. And I sure wouldn’t miss junk mail(垃圾郵件)--I hate coming home every evening and finding a pile of junk mail in my post box.
Post 4
Miko
Japan
Hi, I would miss Manga cartoon, the Internet and Japanese food, like sushi. I’d also miss TV shows and shopping for clothes…In fact, I’d miss everything.
Post 5
Roger
UK
 I would miss my daily newspaper and listening to the news on TV and radio. I’d feel very cut off if I didn’t know what was happening in the world. What I’d miss least would be traffic jams in the city, particularly my journey to work.
Post 6
Jayne
Canada
Why hasn’t anyone mentioned their family? I’d be lost without my husband and two kids. They are the most important for me. And I can’t get started in the morning without a cup of black coffee. I wouldn’t miss doing the housework.
Post 7
Jaime
Mexico
It would have to be music.I couldn’t live without my music.I wouldn’t miss going to school at all or doing homework!

D
Here are a few tips we’ve put together to help you learn English well.
Speak, speak, speak!
Practise speaking as often as you can—even speaking to yourself is good practice. Try recording yourself whenever you can. Compare your pronunciation with the master version, see how you can do better and have another try. If you do this several times, you will find that each version is better than the last.
Why not learn with someone else?
It helps if you can learn with someone else. If you can persuade a friend or family member to study with you, it will make you keep working. Agree times to meet and set goals for the week, and test each other regularly.
Don’t get stuck by a word you don’t know
Practise improvising (即興的) ways of getting your meaning across while speaking spontaneously (本能), even if you don’t know the exact words or phrases. Think of things you might want to say whenever you have spare time. A basic example is the use of tenses. If you don’t know the past tense but want to talk about yesterday, use the verb in the present tense and use the word for “yesterday”. Use facial expressions, hand movements, anything to get your meaning across.
Language learning is also about intuition (直覺)
Guesswork is important in learning a new language. When listening to recorded material, you aren’t expected to understand everything first time round. If you play the same piece several times, you will most probably understand something new each time. Learn to make maximum use of all the clues you can pick up. For example, what do the speakers sound like? Happy? Angry? Calm? Etc.
Build up your vocabulary
A wide vocabulary is the key to successful language learning but don’t try to learn too much at once. It’s best to study frequently, for short periods of time. Take a maximum of six or seven items of vocabulary and learn them. Put them into sentences to fix them in your mind, then come back to them later. Much of the vocabulary in the course is presented by topic.
And above all, have fun!
68. Why should one have himself recorded when practicing speaking?
A. To encourage others to start.
B. To record his own progress.
C. To improve his speaking.
D. To compare himself with others.
69. Which of the following is the most important in learning English?
A. Speaking.      B. Pleasure.      C. Intuition.     D. Vocabulary.
70. It is important in Tip 3 that        is helpful when you are learning English.
A. body language  B. a good memory  C. a good friend  D. a proper dictionary
71. Which of the following seems NOT to be true in learning a language?
A. Practice makes perfect.          B. A good beginning is half done.
C. Rome is not built in a day.      D. Don’t run before you can walk.
