It not only gives the meaning of words, it can also help you with spelling, word building, grammar and pronunciation. To use your dictionary correctly, you need to understand how the dictionary works. At the front of the book, you will find some exercises to help you make the most use of your dictionary. If you look up the word “colour”, you will find two spellings for this word. “Colour” is used in British English, while “color” is used in American English. When such a thing happens, the dictionary shows it with the word “BrE” for British English and “AmE” for American English. The dictionary also helps you pronounce words correctly. It uses a special alphabet (特殊字母表) to show pronunciation. If you turn to the inside back face, you will see all the phonetic letters (音标) with some words to show you how they are pronounced. Just have a look this page when youre not sure how to say a word. The most important reason for using a dictionary is to find out the meaning of a wordits DEFINITION. In this dictionary, the definitions have been written using only 2000 words. This means that the definitions of even the most difficult words are simply explained and easy to understand.( )31.

Orphan meant unwanted and unloved. Christmas was the one day of the year when the children didnt work and received a gift, an orange. Usually they tried to taste and keep it for so long that it often went bad before they ever peeled（剥开）it to enjoy the sweet juice. Many thoughts were expressed as Christmas time drew near. The children would say, I will keep mine the longest. John usually slept with his next to his pillow. This year John was overjoyed by the Christmas season. He was becoming a man and stronger and soon he would be old enough to leave. He would save his orange until his birthday in July. Christmas day finally came. The children were so excited as they entered the big dining hall. Immediately the master shouted, John, leave the hall and there will be no orange for you this year. Johns heart broke violently wide open. He turned and went quickly back to the cold room. Then he heard the door open and each of the children entered. Little Elizabeth with her hair falling over her shoulders, a smile on her face, and tears in her eyes held out a piece of rag to John. Here John, she said, this is for you. As he lifted back the edges of the rag he saw a big juicy orange all peeled and quartered(成四等份) and then he realized what they had done. John never forgot the sharing, love and personal sacrifice (牺牲)his friends had shown him that Christmas day. In memory of that day every year he would send oranges all over the world to children everywhere. ( )34These children would be happiest when .

DThe story teaches us to learn to share with others.C Tiger Mom, Youve been criticized(批评) a lot since your book, Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother, came out. One problem is that some people dont get your humor. They think youre serious about all things and Lulu and I are suffering a lot from such a strict mother. That is not true. But for real, its not their fault. No outsider can know what our family is really like. They dont hear us laughing over each others jokes. They dont see us eating our hamburgers with fried rice. They dont know how much fun we have when the six of us dogs included squeeze into one bed and argue about what movies to download from Netflix. I admit it: Having you as a mother was no tea party. There were some play dates I wish Id gone to and some piano camps I wish Id got away from. But now that Im 18 and about to leave the tiger den(穴), Im glad you and Daddy raised me the way you did. A lot of people have accused you of producing robot kids who cant think for themselves. Well, I came to the opposite conclusion: your strict parenting made me more independent(独立的). Everybodys talking about the birthday cards we once made for you, which you refused to take because they werent good enough. Funny how some people believe that Lulu and I will feel hurt for life. But lets face it: It took me 30 seconds; I didnt put my heart into it. Thats why, when you rejected it, I didnt feel hurt at all. Theres one more thing: I have come to understand what it really means to live a meaningful life to the fullest. To me, its about knowing that youve tried your best, body and mind. You feel it when the piano piece youve practiced for days and hours finally comes to life beneath your fingertips. You feel it when you do something on your own that you never thought you could. And for that, Tiger Mom, thank you. Yours, Sophia( )38. In the writers opinion, why do some people criticize her mother? A. They dont know what her family is really like. B.

But for students at the International Culinary (烹饪) Center (ICC) in New York City, its much more than that food is the future. ICC “gave me a direction”, said Song Wenlong, 25, a Chinese native and recent graduate of the world famous cooking school. ICC, which was set up in 1984, offers courses from chef (厨师)training programs to wine studies and restaurant management, according to its website. And as the school has grown, the number of international students to ICC, including Chinese, is rising every year. One example is Song Wenlong, who grew up in Shanghai but now works in Los Angeles as director of food development for RJ Chinese Kitchen, a restaurant in California. Song has lived in the US for three years. He first completed a degree in Engineering at Stony Brook University in New York. Song said. “I chose the degree based on my parents opinion. The people I met abroad encouraged me to chase my dream, so I ended up changing my whole career path.”Thats what brought him to ICC -his love of food. “Growing up, my uncle had a restaurant, and I loved going with him to the farmers market. When I was 16, I started to cook on my own.” Song said he likes ICCs ideas toward cooking. “They taught me how to cook, not special recipes（秘诀）. They call it cooking techniques. I learned a lot from that. The two-month internship(实习) in a restaurant was helpful, too. It gave me a look at a high-quality, professional kitchen.” Song highly recommends Chinese chefs and food lovers go abroad and study. Above all, he feels good about the fact that more young Chinese people are starting to chase their own dreams. ( )42. What is the main point of the article? A.
