For many people of Norway(挪威)，skiing(滑雪) is the best way to have fun in winter. Almost everyone can ski.
Children learn to ski after they learn to walk. Long long ago in Norway，there were no buses, trains or cars. People
had to find a way to walk over the deep snow. Skis were the right answer!
Although they love winter, the people of Norway are also happy to see summer come. They enjoy the out-door
activities at any time of the year. In summer they swim and sunbathe near the beach. Some people go hiking and go
mountain climbing. Sail-boating is also very popular during the warm sunny summer months.
The Norwegians(挪威人), like people everywhere, find many in-door ways to have a good time. During the
long winter they also enjoy movies. They like to read books from the libraries in all seasons. Family life is very
important to the people of Norway.

When you are learning English, you find it not clever to put an English sentence, word for word, into your own
language. Take the sentence “How do you do?” as an example. If you look up each word in the dictionary, one at a
time, what is your translation( 翻译)？It must be a wrong sentence in your own language. Languages do not just
have different sounds, they are different in many ways. It’s important to master(掌握) the rules for word order(顺序)
in the study of English, too. If the speakers put words in a wrong order, the listener can’t understand the speaker’s
sentence easily. Sometimes when the order of words in an English sentence is changed, the meaning of the sentence
changes, But sometimes the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn’t change. Let’s see the difference
between the two pairs of sentences.
“She ony like apples.” “Only she likes apples.”
“My friend is Alice.” “Alice is my friend.”
When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit( 精神实质) of the language and use it as
the English speaker does.
42. From the passage we know that
when we are learning English.
A. we shouldn’t put every word into our own language
B. we should look up every word in the dictionary
C. we need to put every word into our own language
D. we must read word by word
43. The writer thinks it is
in learning English.
A. difficult to understand different sounds
B. possible to remember the word order
C. important to master the rules in different ways
D. easy to master the rules for word order
44. We can learn from the passage that
.
A. the meaning of an English sentence always changes with the order of the words
B. the order of words can never change the meaning of an English sentence
C. sometimes different order of words has a different meaning
D. if the order of words is different, the meaning of a sentence must be different
