They study grammar rules. They take grammar tests. They use an analytical approach，attempting to memorize and then apply a great number of rules.Research has proven this method to be inefficient and ineffective. The truth is，the human brain simply cannot consciously remember，process，and use hundreds or thousands of grammar rules. Real speech is much too fast.Native speakers do not learn grammar in this_way. Native speakers learn English grammar intuitively(直觉地) and subconsciously. They learn in a holistic way，rather than attempting to memorize individual grammar rules. As a result，native speakers easily process and use correct grammar at normal speaking speeds.Fortunately，it is possible for English learners to learn grammar in the same way as native speakers .Language teacher Blaine Ray has developed a unique system for teaching English grammar in an intuitive way.Specifically，the system uses “Point of View Stories” to teach the patterns of English grammar. Students subconsciously acquire correct grammar，but they never study grammar rules.In this system，the teacher first tells a simple story from one point of view. For example，a story is told about the past. Next，the teacher tells the same exact story，but begins with “since he was a child”Next，the teacher tells exactly the same story again，but the story is told about the future.By listening to the stories，students intuitively and effortlessly learn English grammar. More importantly，they are able to use correct grammar when they speak.Point of View Stories are an innovative new way to study English grammar，offering hope to millions of frustrated English learners.36The following are all traditional ways to study English grammar EXCEPT_.Aremember many grammar rulesBtaking grammar testsCanalysing grammar structureDapplying language situation37What does the underlined words “this way” mean?ATrying to memorize and using a great number of rules.BLearning English grammar in an intuitive manner.CSpeaking English in a high speed.DLearning English grammar from a teacher.38From this passage we can learn_.ANative speakers learn English grammar by listening storiesBBlaine Ray doesnt teach students grammar rulesCBlaine Rays system teaches grammar rules by telling storiesDstudents cant speak correct English in the new grammar system39This passage wants to_.Atell us how to learn English grammar simplyBintroduce an innovative new way to study English grammarCask students to learn English grammar by listening to more storiesDtell us how to learn English grammar effectively in traditional wayBWhy are audio language learning methods so successful? Language is primarily a spoken form of communication. Languages evolved that way，and continue to change based on the sounds of languages. This is how we learned our native language as children. Think about it. Literacy(读写能力) only began to rise in the last few hundred years. For the previous 6,000 years of human written history，reading was only for the ruling class and priesthood(神职)The other 99% of us learned and used our native language as a purely spoken form. This is something often overlooked. In fact，I believe that the most successful methods are more audiobased than otherwise. We cant ignore the importance of reading，but clearly the most fundamental aspect of communicating in a language is speaking and listening.AdvantagesBetter pronunciation. With an audio method，you can take your time practicing your pronunciation and comparing it to the native speakers you hear on the tapes or CDs. You will have better pronunciation skills and a better accent than you would with only a book to go by.Hearing the language. You will actually hear the language with its unique rhythms spoken by native speakers. Speaking is only part of the problem，you still need to understand what someone is saying to you. With audio language learning methods，you will be encouraged to engage the native speakers on the CD in a conversation，which will accelerate your ability to hear and understand the language.Its convenient. You can take it with you wherever you go，provided you have a CD or cassette player. This kind of method is great for use in the car or with a walkman on your morning jog，or even doing housework. Our minds can be occupied with something productive while our hands are doing mindless work! 40The first paragraph mainly tells us_Athe reason for successful audio language learningBthe history of audio language learningCsome examples of audio language learningDthe source of audio language learning41The underlined word probably means_.Alook down on Bleave outClook past Dleave undone42In the authors opinion，the first important part of a language is_.Apronunciation BhearingCspeaking Dreading43What can be written following this part?ALearning methods of audio languageBComparison with other learning methodsCOther language learning methodsDDisadvantages of audio language CLanguage learning begins with listening. Children are greatly different in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking，and later starters are often long listeners. Most children will “obey” instructions some time before they can speak，though the word “obey” is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child. Before they can speak，many children will also ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises.Any attempt to study the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy making noises，and during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves as particularly expressive as delight，pain，friendliness，and so on. But since these cant be said to show the babys intention to communicate，they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed，too，that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment，and that by six months they are able to add new words to their store. This selfimitation leads to deliberate imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people.It is a problem we need to get our teeth into. The meaning of a word depends on what a particular person means by it in a particular situation and it is clear that what a child means by a word will change as he gains more experience of the word. Thus the use at seven months of “mama” as a greeting for his mother can not be dismissed as a meaningless simply because he also uses it at other times for his father，his dog，or anything else he likes. Playful and meaningless imitation of what other people say continues after the child has begun to speak for himself.44Before children started speaking_.Athey need equal amount of listeningBthey need different amounts of listeningCthey are all eager to cooperate with the adults by obeying spoken instructionsDthey cant understand and obey the adults oral instructions45Children who start speaking later_.Amay have problems with their listeningBprobably do not hear enough language spoken around themCusually pay close attention to what they hearDoften take a long time in learning to listen properly46The problem of deciding at what point a babys imitations can be considered as speech_.Ais important because words have different meanings for different peopleBis not especially important because the changeover takes place graduallyCis one that should be properly understood because the meaning of words changes with ageDis one that should be completely ignored because childrens use of words is often meaninglessDA prosperous moneylender bought a house located right next door to the house of a tanner(鞣皮匠)From morning till evening the tanner change hide(兽皮) into leather by treating it with tannin(单宁)From day one the moneylender was put off by the unpleasant smells of the tannery. So，he visited the tanners house and offered to buy his house. “I would love to sell the house if you buy it，” said the tanner. He didnt want to do any such thing but he liked to play tricks. “Give me a week or so to deal with some things，will you？”The moneylender agreed and went away.A week later，the overpowering smell coming from the tannery brought the moneylender to the tanners doorstep again. “I understand sir，” said the tanner with wideeyed sympathy. “But my mother is visiting me this week. I cant sell the house until she goes away. Please wait for a month.” The moneylender agreed with great reluctance. He began to wait eagerly for the guests departure. In the beginning he counted each day，impatiently waiting for one to finish and the other to begin. After a while，he found he was no longer so interested in the month coming to an end. He had simply forgotten about it.He did not ask the tanner to leave when they met next，either. You see，by then the moneylender had become accustomed to the tanyards smell. “What have you done to drive away that terrible smell？” he asked the tanner. “Have you reduced the solution？”The tanner smiled and nodded. He had been waiting for the day the moneylender would get used to the smells from the tannery and stop bothering him. That was why he had asked the moneylender to wait in the first place.47After a weeks waiting，the moneylenders feeling became_.Aangry BcalmCnervous Danxious48How many times did the moneylender ask the tanner to leave? A1.B2.C3.D4.49Why did the tanner asked the moneylender to wait? Because_.Ahe wanted to make some repairs to his houseBhe wanted to do some cleaning to his houseChis mother would live in his house for a monthDhe wouldnt sell his house from the bottom of his heart
