Superstar and I
It’s common that many students are crazy about those singers and actors. However, liyundi, a pianist, is the superstar in my heart. He is a man of few words and he even looks like the greatest pianist—Chopin. When listening to his music , I can get rid of everything noisy around. What’s more, I can feel his strong love for music. Rome wasn’t built in one day. He achieved the great success through huge effort. I can learn from him that we should never give up to realize our dreams.
Superstar and I
Her name first appeared as a joke then like a wonder. She is Susan Boyle, the superstar in my heart. Although she’s not beautiful, her voice and spirit moved all the audience, including me.

She is like a sunshine that gives me hope. Where there is a will, there is a way.

The film festival at Cannes (戛纳电影节) in France started this week. It is the world's most famous film festival --- it will be covered by more than 4000 reporters! The highest award is the Palme d'Or (French for "Golden Palm"---金棕榈奖). More than 1000 films will be shown over a two-week period.
The Cannes Film Festival is quite old ,it has been around for 60 years. But that's only half as old as film-making itself ! Photography or the art of "still pictures" was invented in the 1820s. It was only in the 1890s that "moving pictures" were invented. The Lumiere brothers (Auguste and Louis) in France invented a device (设备) to record and show moving pictures. They called it the "cinematographe", from which we get the word "cinema". Their first film was "La Sortie des usines Lumière", which was just 48 seconds long! They did the first paid public showing of their films at the Grand Cafe in Paris on December 28, 1895. Many scholars view this event as the "birth of cinema". You can still watch these films if you want.
The Lumiere brothers didn't think that their invention would really be useful. Gee, were they wrong!! Years later, Louis Lumiere was asked to become the first president of a film festival ---the Cannes film festival!
71. Cannes Film Festival is one of the most famous film festivals in the world.
72. “Golden Lion” is the highest award for the festival.
73. People can enjoy less than one thousand films during two weeks.
74. According to the passage, film-making has a history of 60 years.
75. Moving pictures didn’t appear until 1890s.
76. “Cinema” was born in France when the Lumiere brothers showed their first film.
77. The Lumiere brothers became the first presidents of the Cannes Film Festival.

Five days after the London marathon, when the hard experience and muscle ache were just memory for every other runner, Lloyd Scott, a cancer survivor, lumbered (行动迟钝) across the finish line in his deep-sea diver’s suit to a hero’s welcome yesterday.
Cold, heavy, wet
Lloyd was interviewed by reporters from BBC and he introduced his difficult experience of his unforgettable London marathon. "During the time I'm walking, I have to pay attention to a great deal. Although I used to be a firefighter, I can’t get used to putting on the cold, heavy, wet deep-sea diver’s suit to run the marathon. At such bad moments, I think of the money I'm raising for Clic which provides a service for children and families. But the hardest thing happens exactly each morning. When I wake up, I have to find out what hurts and how much. You can not imagine how hard it is to get into the cold and wet diving suit with all your muscles still cold and having to think
about what will happen next, because I also have very poor eyesight and cannot see the broken stones on the roadside.”
Excellent example
Paul Simons, an officer, thinks Lloyd has demonstrated a very British sense of determination. He describes Lloyd as an excellent example to all the nation, who has a unique part of British character that the whole people need. Karen Sugarman, another fundraiser of Clic thinks of Lloyd as Superman and an inspiration to many of the sufferers throughout the UK.
Years ago, Lloyd was diagnosed (诊断) with cancer, he told himself it was not his end. He has come through that darkest period and he hopes that this run will encourage anyone else not to give up hope.
As a cancer survivor, Lloyd Scott is a mixture of fundraiser and inspiration. He is serious about his charity work for Cancer and Children Care. He really did something ‘larger than life’ that is very close to his heart. He once ran across the Jordan Desert dressed as Indian Jones, climbed the Everest and walked to the South Pole… and this time his London marathon run successfully won him a place in the record books - for the slowest ever marathon.
78. Lloyd Scott finished the London marathon days after all the other runners.
A) two B) three C) four D) five
79. Lloyd Scott worked as a before he became ill.
A) doctor B) firefighter C) deep-sea diver D) marathon runner

A) see the road clearly B) dive in the deep-sea
C) raise money for charity Clic D) enjoy the running
81. The underlined word “demonstrated ” in this passage probably means .
A) proved B) decorated C) delivered D) protected
82. When he was diagnosed with cancer, Lloyd Scott .
A) thought it was the end B) felt depressed C) didn’t give up D) lumbered home
83. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to this passage?
A) Lloyd hoped to raise money for sick children.
B) Lloyd met the race’s fastest man at the end of the race.
C) Lloyd had poor eyesight .

2010 Shanghai World Expo is coming soon. It’s said that 190-plus countries and more than 50 international organizations will attend the exposition, and millions of people from across the world and nearly 100 foreign leaders are (85) to visit Shanghai during World Expo 2010.
I am sure you will want your visitors to see what a beautiful and attractive city you live in with their own eyes. Good manners will help to show the (86) that Shanghai is truly a world-class city.
By using simple words like “please” and “ thank you”, you show others that you have respect for them, but it is also a way of asking them to show your respect in return. Being polite is also a way of telling others that you have strength and confidence in yourself.
I agree with another saying: “The top (87) at World Expo 2010 Shanghai China will be the manners of the Chinese people.” The World Expo will last longer than the Olympic Games and thus test our manners to a greater degree. While enjoying the fruits of this extraordinary event, we also face an extraordinary challenge. Having good manners does not happen (88) . If you learn to have good manners early in your life, those good habits will stay with you forever. Practice good manners whenever you can. You will not be (89) by holding a door open for a stranger to pass. You can have these good habits by showing good manners to (90) you meet whether they are family members, friends or strangers.
Start with simple things like saying “please” and “thank you”. Just like a small child learning to speak, you will watch as these powerful words (91) in strength and habit. People will appreciate your good manners , and will treat you well in return. With our good manners and service ,Shanghai World Expo will be successful, spectacular and unforgettable.

D. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words(在短文的空格内填入适当的词,使其内容通顺。每空格限填一词,首字母已给):(14分)
Test scores make you either happy or sad and your parents pay high attention to your test results. You spend days filling in blanks, trying to make the best a (92) to question after question. Maybe you tried your hardest or
maybe you n (93) tried! What you need to remember is that a test is a picture of your ability from just one day. It consists of some pieces including your health, your personality, your interests, and your motivation. You need to look at all the pieces to get a clear i (94) of your progress. So whether your scores are higher than you thought, or l (95) than you had hoped, try not to think of them as what you will be at last. It probably c (96) you why your scores have become the focus of your life. The purpose of a test is to check how much you have learned about a subject. It not only helps make your newly acquired knowledge forever, but also enables you to find out what needs to spend more time improving. If you’re p (97) with the results, encourage yourself to work for a further aim. If disappointment has overcome you, ask your teacher and your parents to help you set a reasonable goal for improvement. Most exams are about to test your skill in certain subject areas such as math, language and arts. Some compare your skills to other students’ skills from across the country, o (98) just test whether or not you have mastered a specific skill. These scores can be very puzzling…even to adults. You should speak to both your teacher and your parents to find out what they mean in your educational journey. It is important to take a correct attitude towards test scores.
E. Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题): ( 14分)
There was only one chair on the stage of the concert hall in Northern England. There was no piano, no music stand and no conductor. Just that lonely chair.
The atmosphere in the hall was tense. People were nervous and excited. Everyone in the audience of 600 people knew that they were going to hear a very special kind of music.
Finally it was time to start. Yo-Yo Ma, Chinese-American, one of the world’s most famous cellists(大提琴家), came on to the stage, bowed to the audience and sat down quietly on the chair. He made himself comfortable, thought for some minutes until there was complete silence, and then he started to play music that was at first empty and dangerous, but that soon became loud and painful, like the worst thing you’ve ever heard. It was almost unbearable , but finally, it faded away to nothing. Yo-Yo Ma did not move. He stayed with his head bowed over his instrument.
Everyone in the hall held their breath. For what seemed like hours, nobody moved, though the performance ended. It was as if they had all experienced something terrible and dark. But then Yo-Yo Ma stood up. He put down his cello. He extended his hand to someone in the audience, asking them to come and join him. An electric shock ran through the audience when they realized what was going to happen.
A man in dirty motorcycle leathers got up from his seat excitedly and walked towards the stage, but Ma did not seem to mind. The great cellist rushed down from the stage and hugged him. The audience went crazy; suddenly everyone was cheering and shouting, like people do when they’ve just heard great music.
But this was more than music, just as the great cellist told us:“You should play not because you want to be good, but because you need to make a sound, music --- the essence of music is about expression.”

Ⅲ. Listen to the passage and tell whether the following statements are true or false. (共7分)
Many people in India live on small farms. They live a quiet and simple life. The family takes care of the farm and animals. The most important animal on the farm is the cow. The cow helps on the farm in two ways. It gives milk to the family, and it works on the farm.
Farmers care about their cows very much. They want their cows to be happy. The farms aren’t busy at certain times of the year. At these times, people wash and decorate their cows. Twice a year, there are special celebrations for the cows. These celebrations are like Thanksgiving Day in the United States.
Old cows cannot work on farms. In India respect for the cow is widespread, it is not allowed to kill a cow. So farmers send their old cows away from the farm. The cows walk around freely in the streets ,which are plentiful in the area. There are special animal hospitals for old or sick cows. The government and some rich people pay for these hospitals.
People in other countries do not understand why the Indian government spends much money on cows. There are many poor people in India who need money. People in India care for 200 million cows every year. It is a tradition of thousands of years.

浦东教发院课程教研部 中学外语组 2010年4月
有的同学总是抱怨时间紧,根本没时间写作文。其实“写”的形式很多,不一定就写作文才提高写作能力。比如写下你一天中发生的一些重要的事情,或当天学了某一个词组,你可以创设一个语境恰如其份地用上这个词。这样即可帮你记住这个词的用法,又可以锻炼你的写作能力,比如学“wish”一词时,可写一小段如下:
The teacher often asks us what we want to be in the future.My good friend Tom wishes to be a soldier.However,I'm different .I wish I were a teacher in the future.But my mother wishes me to be a doctor.
口语是需要技巧的。光靠大胆自信还不够。关键是系统的方法。我是英语专业毕业的,英语八级,现在当翻译,在大学时去英语角,上课发言等都不管用,一度非常苦恼。后来发现口语练习需要系统的方法。建议你按照我的方法做。 买个口语软件,口语宝或者右脑王都不错。 1语音阶段,照软件的内容练,一天俩小时,最多一个月,语音可以过关。无论你的基础怎么样。切记一定要仔细认真模仿纠正模仿在模仿。
2篇章阶段,根据软件上的资料,句子,语音,语调,断句,停顿,高低,节奏,长短等等,越细越好,模仿,对比,模仿,纠正,再模仿。不求量只求质。同样一个月,明显可以提高。3电影阶段,看英语电影。每句话听五遍以上,看看能听懂几个单词。在看汉语五遍,看看能听懂几个词组,再看英语五遍以上。然后倒过来从英语字幕到汉语字幕到无字幕,五遍以上。冰河世纪这部影片够你看两个月,五分钟的影片可以看两小时以上。4与人交流。现在开始舍弃软件,自信大胆的与中国人,别管对错,把自己想说的说出来。与老外更好。记住耐心模仿,细心比较,持之以恒,反反复复,1,2个月以后你的口语一定很棒。
你是外企的白领要经常的说英语哦,这个很正常的哦,如果你要学英语口语的话,那么对如何学习英语口语我有一些经验了。我建议你可以跟我一样报个电话英语培训啊。现在的电话英语还很很好了,电话英语,只通过声音传递内容上课,所以要求学生要有更高的注意力,
因此对提高听力有很大的帮助,同时在听他人说话的同时,自己也要开口说话,这种学习方式被认为是锻炼听力和口语的最佳方法,还有,电话英语最大的优势就是将上课内容全程录音可以供课后复习。而且时间安排可以在你的工作空余时间来学习英语口语哦,
如何学习英语口语的必备条件—语言环境。口语是交流、是听和说。学习任何一种语言,首先要听懂,然后才学说话。口语不可以自学。学习英语口语必须进入英文语言环境。每天听的都是英文,也必须讲英文。中国学生为什么不会讲英文?因为中国的英文老师大部分不讲英文,用中文上英文课。学生在英文课上不讲英文,大部分还是讲中文。1 如何学好英语口语--学习英文口语最好是英文母语老师—即外教。英文为母语的老师,从小生活在英文的环境里。知道各种生活场景、生活内容的英文用语,并且他们的发音纯正,只有他们才可以教好口语。就像外国人要学中文,一定要请中国的老师。所有这里我向你推荐恩京电话英语培训学校,真是不错的,外教通过电话一对一教授日常口语,商务口语,雅思口语.面试英语,外贸口语,青少年英语等,每天回到家,晚上可以学10-20分钟,而且时间,外教都可以任选,均有指定教材,外教都是很有经验的老师,报名后每位学员在网站上都有专属学习地盘,每晚上课时外教会就你的问题当时提出纠正,上课后会在学员的学习地盘中留下当晚学习的详细评语和学员的进步情况分析,及第二天晚上上课讨论的建议。最重要的是,网站上有学员每晚学习的录音,学员可下载收听对照自己的学习;费用也特别实惠,我一个普通打工族就可以接受。随时随地和外教说英语,不错!!2 学习英文还必须了解英文为主的西方文化。学习口语必须知道在什么场合,说什么话?怎么样说话是有礼貌的?什么是外国人忌讳的?就如同中文,从小父母就会教我们在什么场合要说你好、对不起。看见老人、叔叔、阿姨应当怎样称呼?在客人面前该问什么问题?不该说什么话?等等。因为我们的言语得体可以给别人留下良好的印象,不至于造成误会。3
学习口语必须大量地听说练习。我们从小中文是怎么学会的?是每天起床后就不断地听不断地说。每天至少12个小时在中文听说语言环境里。其他语言的学习也是同样的道理。不断地听,不断地说,随时纠正。学生只要在与外国人或学生之间讲英文,就是在学习。
我有啊,奉献给你一些啦,快快学习吧:
Do you have some time tomorrow? 明天有空吧?
Yes, I do. 有啊。
How about having lunch with me? 一起吃顿中饭怎样?
Good idea. 好主意。
If you're free, how about lunch? 有空的话一起吃顿中饭如何?
When did you have in mind? 你想什么时候呢?
I was thinking about Thursday? 我看星期四怎样?
That will be fine with me. 没问题。
I'm calling to see if you would like to have lunch tomorrow.
我打电话给你,是想知道明天一起吃顿中饭怎样?
I'm sorry, but this week isn't very convenient for me.
对不起,这个星期我都不方便。
Perhaps we van make it later. 那么,也许改天吧。
That would be better. 好啊。
I'm calling to confirm our luncheon appointment.
我打电话来,是想确定一下我们约好吃饭的事。
It's tomorrow at twelve o'clock, right? 是明天12点吧?
Yes, that's right. 是的,没错。
I'll be there. 我会去的。
I'm sorry, but I have to cancel out luncheon appointment.
真抱歉,不过我不得不取消我们午餐的约会。
I'm sorry to hear that. 真遗憾。
I have pressing business to attend to. 我有紧急的事情要处理。
No problem. we'll make it later in the month. 没关系,这个月改天再说吧。
一、多“说”。
自己多创造机会与英语教师多讲英语,见了同学,尤其是和好朋友在一起时尽量用英语去问候,谈心情……这时候你需随身携带一个英汉互译小词典,遇到生词时查一下这些生词,也不用刻意去记,用的多了,这个单词自然而然就会记住。千万别把学英语当成负担,始终把它当成一件有趣的事情去做。
或许你有机会碰上外国人,你应大胆地上去跟他打招呼,和他谈天气、谈风景、谈学校……只是别问及他的年纪,婚史等私人问题。尽量用一些你学过的词汇,句子去和他谈天说地。不久你会发现与老外聊天要比你与中国人谈英语容易的多。因为他和你交谈时会用许多简单词汇,而且不太看重说法,你只要发音准确,准能顺利地交流下去。只是你必须要有信心,敢于表达自己的思想。
如果没有合适的伙伴也没关系,你可以拿过一本书或其它什么东西做假想对象,对它谈你一天的所见所闻,谈你的快乐,你的悲伤等等,长此坚持下去你的口语肯定会有较大的提高。
