Do you like listening to English songs to learn the language ? Some students don’t believe doing so can help them learn English. I have to say they think wrongly. Listening to English songs can help you learn the language better. You may ask how. Just read on.

Lyrics are not easily forgotten. You listen to them over and over again throughout your life. Once you learn them, they are going to stay with you, and you are going to review them repeatedly because you enjoy them. If you learn just one song per week for a year, those are 52 songs full of new vocabulary and phrases that you will never forget.

Songs give you perfect pronunciation models. As you learn to sing them, you are practicing your pronunciation, you are imitating native speakers, and you are learning how to speak better. The rhythm naturally leads to better pronunciation, better intonation(聲調(diào)), and more fluency.

When you start paying attention to the lyrics, your listening skills naturally improve. Once you learn a few songs, you’ll start gathering a lot of songs and vocabulary. A larger vocabulary usually means better listening comprehension. Just the fact that you start caring about the lyrics will activate your listening skills and listening to music in English will become an enjoyable learning exercise.

Another huge merit is that you get to practice your grammar. Some of the most intelligent grammar questions my students bring to me come from songs. You can probably even map the entire language into pop songs and greatly improve your grammar by learning the lyrics to your favorite songs.

Now we can conclude that listening to English songs can really help you learn the language well. So listen to more English songs in your free time. You can put the lyrics on your ipod or iphone and read them as you listen. Believe me, and you’ll benefit a lot.

1.Paragraph 2 mainly shows that by listening to English songs, you can _____.

A. improve your memory

B. have a larger vocabulary

C. gather a lot of English songs

D. go over words you have learned

2.The underlined word “merit” in Paragraph 5 means “_____”.

A. advantage B. consideration C. cause D. surprise

3.What is the text mainly about ?

A. What people can do to improve their English.

B. Why English learners like listening to English songs.

C. What songs people can listen to so as to improve English.

D. Why listening to English songs helps improve our English.

4.Which of the following best describes the relation among the paragraphs ?

Recently I read an article in a magazine. It was about the mother who was worried about her son just because of he always kept his hair long. The mother thought that was not right,and the son felt there was nothing unusually about it. Different generations have different opinion on the same thing. That is what is meaning by “the generation gap”.We can see them in our daily life. Most of our parents like listening to old songs when young people prefer pop songs. Every time my father finds me listening to rock music,he always shouted,“Shut it off. It’s awful!” How can we deal with the generation gap?

Having learned much about the War of Resistance against Japan, Mao Jingxin didn’t like the Japanese when she was a child. “I thought they were cruel and rude,” said the 18-year-old girl from Hebei Province.

But she began to change her mind after she met some Japanese teenagers in a history museum six years ago. These fashionable high school students looked seriously at the history displays and talked to Mao in a friendly way. “I found that they are not bad as I thought,” she said.

Like Mao, many Chinese teenagers’ are caught up in this confusion. A survey by 21st Century Teens shows about 51 per cent of Chinese teenagers say they dislike Japan. But most of them still want to have a Japanese friend. Also, Japan lies third on their list of Asian countries that they want to visit, following Singapore and South Korea.

Teens did a survey just before the 60th anniversary of the victory day of the War of Resistance against Japan, which fell on September 3. The survey aimed to encourage understanding and communication between young Chinese and Japanese.

Teens also wanted to understand Chinese teenagers’ attitudes towards Japan, and how much they actually know about the country.

As Teens found, more than 60 per cent of Chinese teenagers learn about Japan through the media or books. Only 16 per cent have ever met a Japanese person.

“Most of my friends hate Japan for what it did to China during World War II. But people should not live in hatred. I think the best way to figure it out is to have contact with the Japanese people myself,” Zhang Yuyuan, a Senior 2 girl, told us in the survey.

“Japan has done wrong to Asian countries including China and it has caused pain to everyone,” said Hikaru, a 17-year-old girl in Kawasaki (川崎市). Having visited China four times and learned much, she understands the importance of communication between the two peoples. She plans to join in an exchange programme with Chinese youth. “Welcome to Japan, my Chinese friends!” She says it with a smile.

1. Most teenagers hate Japanese because _______.

A. the Japanese were cruel during the war

B. the Japanese they meet are cruel

C. the Japanese don’t want to communicate with Chinese people

D. they look too fashionable

2.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the survey?

A. Many teenagers have met a Japanese.

B. South Korea is the most popular Asian tourist places for Chinese teenagers.

C. More than half of the teenagers in the survey don’t like the Japanese.

D. Most Chinese teenagers learn about Japan through exchange activities.

3. The passage is written to ______.

A. give a brief introduction to the history of the War of Resistance against Japan

B. report what Chinese teenagers think about Japan

C. provide information about Japanese teenagers

D. encourage Chinese teenagers to meet the Japanese
