The word itself means a bicycle built with saddles for two riders sitting one behind the other. However, when we learn a foreign language, we can find a native speaker who wishes to learn our languages. So we both get a chance to practice. This is the tandem exchange.For example, I’m a native English speaker but I want to learn Spanish. So I go to a tandem meeting. There I can find a native Spanish speaker who wants to improve his or her English. Then we become “tandem” partners. I speak English with my Spanish tandem partner for about an hour and help him or her with some English problems. After that, we speak Spanish for an hour, too. The idea of this language exchange is great because we can learn something about a language that we may not learn in class. This is the main reason why we can choose the tandem exchange as a way to learn a new language.In the tandem exchange, we can also read passages with our partner. This way we can not only practice our pronunciation but also understand the meaning of difficult words in other languages. We can then have conversations about the passages in order to practice our speaking and listening.So I advise you to participate in the tandem exchange. If there’s no foreigner around you, online tandem exchange is also a good choice. Join in the tandem exchange and enjoy the opportunity（机会）of learning new languages and understanding the cultures of other countries!( ) 1. If you are Chinese, you want to learn Japanese. Which of the following is your tandem partner?A. JapaneseB. EnglishmanC. FrenchmanD. American( ) 2. Which of the following is a tandem bicycle?A. B. C. D.( ) 3. What is the main reason for choosing the tandem exchange?A. We can make more friends.B. We can learn something about a language that we may not learn in class.C. We can improve our pronunciation.D. We can learn Spanish in the tandem exchange.( ) 4. Which language skill is NOT practiced in the tandem exchange according to the passage?A. Speaking.B. Writing.C. Reading.D. Listening.( ) 5. The underlined phrase “participate in” means “”.A. take inB. make upC. take part inD. give up(B)According to a new survey, students’ safety has become a big problem. Nearly 50% of students say they are worried about robbery on the way to and from school. Now in main big cities in China ,some schools have taught an unusual lesson: self-protection. Students like this lesson because there are no exams or boring classes. And they can learn how to save lives and know how to stop danger before it really happens.Chen Haoyu, a teacher at Beijing No. 25 Middle School, gives young students advice on how to deal with danger.If you are robbedKeep calm. If you can not cry for help or run away. Give the robber your money. Try to remember what the robber looks like and tell the police later.If you are in a traffic accidentIf a car hits you. You should remember the car number. If it is a bicycle, try to call your parents before you let the rider go. This is because you don't know how seriously you are hurt.If it is raining hard and there is lightingDon’t stay in high places and stay away from trees.When there is a fireGet away as fast as yon can. Put wet things on your body and try to find an exit. Do not take the lift.If someone is drowningIf you can’t swim, don’t get into the water. Cry out for help.Remember that danger is never as far away as you think. Take care of yourself at all time!( )1. Why do students like the self-protection lesson?①Because they can learn how to save lives. ②Because the lessons are boring③ Because there are no tests. ④Because they can know how to stop danger before it happens.A. ①②B. ②③C. ①②④D. ①③④( )2. What will you do if a bicycle hurts you?A.I will remember the bicycle number.B. I won't let the rider go until I call my parents.C.I will let the rider go before I call my parents.D.

From the text we may learn that Kamura is ______.A. a cookB. a waitressC. an actressD. an artistBIf we are asked exactly what we were doing a year ago, we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written it in an account (陈述) of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question.It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we don’t have written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the important happenings in their country, but it was often destroyed (破坏) by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a great deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa because they had not learnt to write.Sometimes, even if the people canno t write, they may know something of the past. They have heard about it from older people and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings, and those have been sung and acted and told for many generations (代), for most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we may call “remembered history”. Some of it has been written history because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But where there are no written records, such spo ken stories are often helpful.54. We can infer (推断) from the passage that ______.A. if there are no written records, there is no history.B. a written account of our daily activities is useless for history.C. “Remembered history” is more reliable (可靠的) than written history.D. written records of the past play an important role in our learning of the human history.55. We know very little about the central Africa 200 years ago because ______.A. the people there did not know how to writeB. there was nothing worth writing down at that timeC. the written records were perhaps destroyed by fire in a warD. the people there paid no attention to the importance of keeping a record56. “Remembered history” is considered as valuable only when ______.A. it proves to rightB. people are interested in itC. it is written downD. there is no written account57. The passage suggests (暗示) that we could have learnt much more about our past than we donow if the ancient people had ______.A. made more songs and dancesB. kept a record of every past eventC. not burnt their written records in warsD. told the exact stories of the most important happeningsCSome people make you feel comfortable when they are around. You spend an hour with them and feel as if you have known them half your life. These people have something in common. And once we know what it is, we can try to do it ourselves.How is it done? Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they’ll help people feel relaxed and make friends with them quickly.First of all, good talkers ask questions. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question. One well-known businesswoman says, “At business lu nches, I always ask people what they did that morning. It’s a common question, but it will get things going.” From there you can move on to other matters—sometimes to really personal questions. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers. This point seems clear, but it isn’t. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what type of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively. Real listening at least means some things. First it means not to change the subject of conversation. If someone sticks to one topic, you can take it as a fact that he’s really interested in it.Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, it’s time for you to change the subject.Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with the moment of saying goodbye. If you’re saying good-bye, you may give him a firm handshake and say, “I’ve really enjoyed meeting you.” If you want to see that person again, don’t keep it a secret. Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if they’ve known you half their life.58.
