Ⅳ.阅读理解
In order to know a foreign language thoroughly, four things are necessary. Firstly, we must understand the language when we hear it spoken. Secondly, we must be able to speak it ourselves, with confidence and without hesitation. Thirdly, we must do much reading. Finally, we must be able to write it. We must be able to make sentences that are correct in grammar.

There are no shortcuts (捷径) to succeed in language learning. A good memory is a great help, but it is not enough only to memorize the rules from a grammar book. It is not much learning by heart long lists of words and their meanings, studying the dictionary and so on. We must learn by using the language. If we are pleased with a few rules we have memorized, we are not really learning the language. We must “learn through use”. Practice is important. We must practice speaking and writing the language whenever we can.
1. The most important things to learn a foreign language are________.
A. understanding and speaking
B. listening, speaking, reading and writing
C. writing and understanding
D. memorizing and listening
答案与解析　B　细节理解题。文章第一段首句点出学习一门外语有四大基本要素，之后用Firstly, Secondly, Thirdly, Finally分别引出这四大要素，即听、说、读和写。
2.Someone hears and writes English very well, but he speaks it very badly. This is because ________.
A. he doesn't understand the language when he hears it spoken
B. he doesn't have a good memory
C. he often hesitates to practice speaking it
D. he always remembers lists of words and their meanings
答案与解析　C　推理推断题。作者在其次段后半部分中强调，要通过使用语言来学习语言，练习是格外重要的，故不练习说外语必定会导致口语很差。
3. “Learn through use” means ________.
A. we use a language in order to learn it
B. we can learn speaking a language by writing it
C. we can learn a language well while we are keeping using it
D. we should do practice every day
答案与解析　C　细节理解题。learn through use指通过使用语言来学习语言，也就是说，不断地使用语言有利于我们更好地学习这门语言。C项的说法与之相近，合乎作者的本意。
