36、阅读文章,回答36-41题:Some people seem to have a knack(诀窍) for learning languages.They can pick up new vocabulary, mas-ter rules of grammar, and learn to writein the new language much more quickly than other people. They do not seem to beany cleverer than others. What makes language learning so much easier for them?Perhaps if we take a close look at these successful language learners, we maydiscover a few techniques which make language learn-ing easier for them.Firstly, successful language learners areindependent learners. They do not depend on the book or the teach-er; they' drather discover their own way to learn the language than wait for the teacherto explain everything.They try to find the sentence patterns, the rules and themeaning of the new word by themselves. They are good guessers. They look forclues and form their own conclusions. When they guess wrong, they guess again.They try to learn from their mistakes.Besides,successful language learning is active learning. Therefore, successful learnersdo not wait for achance to use the language; they look for such a chance. Theyfind people who speak the language and they ask these people to correct themwhenever they make a mistake. They will try anything to communicate. They are notafraid to repeat; they are willing to make mistakes and try again. Whencommunication is difficult, they can accept information that is inexact orincomplete. It is more important for them to learn to think in the language thanto know every word' s meaning.Finally,successful language learners are learners with a purpose. They want to learnthe language because they have an interest in the language and the people whospeak it. It is necessary for them to learn the language in order to communicatewith these people and to learn from them.Successful language learners are independent, so successful learners __________A.depend on the book or theteacherB.wait for the teacher toexplain everythingC.learn from their mistakesD.discover their own way tolearn languages37、 According to the passage, what will successful language learners do when theymeet some new words?A.Try to guess theirmeanings.B.Ask their teachers.C.Look the new words up inthe dictionary.D.Pay no attention to them.38、 Successful language learning is active, so successful learners __________A.wait for a chance to usethe languageB.look for a chance to usethe languageC.only use the language inclassD.try to avoid using thelanguage39、 Whydo successful language learners want to learn the language?A.Because they want to findbetter jobs.B.Because they want to getgood marks in their exams.C.Because they areinterested in the language and the people who speak it.D.Because they have a knackfor learning languages."40、 Thepurpose of the passage is to__________A.explain the importance oflanguage learningB.introduce some usefultechniques of language learningC.teach people how to learnEnglishD.compare language teachingwith language learning41、阅读文章,回答41-46题:Not long ago, experiments showed that birds use the sun to guide them during daylight hours. How do birds fly at night? Tests with artificial stars have proved that certain night-flying birds are able to follow the stars in their long-distance flights.A dove had spent its lifetime in a cage and had never flown under a natural sky. But it had an inborn ability to use the stars for guidance. The bird' s cage was placed under an artificial star-filled sky. The bird tried to fly in the same direction as that taken by his outdoor cousins. Any change in the position of the artificial stars caused a change in the direction of his flight.But the stars are apparently their main means of navigation. When the stars are hidden by clouds, they apparently find their way by such landmarks as river courses, mountain ranges, coast lines. But when it' s too dark to see these things, the doves circle helplessly, unable to find their way.The reasons why birds don' t get lost on their long flights __________A.have been known to scientists for yearsB.have only recently been discoveredC.are known by everyoneD.will probably remain a mystery42、 During daylight hours, birds __________A.fly aimlesslyB.rely on landmarksC.rely on the sun for guidanceD.are more likely to get lost43、 By "his outdoor cousins" the author means __________A.other experimentersB.the other doves of the same broodC.doves under the natural skyD.other birds in general __________44、 The experiment with the dove indicates thatA.birds have to be taught to navigateB.a bird that has been caged will not fly long distancesC.some birds cannot fly at nightD.some birds seem to follow the stars when they fly at night45、 In total darkness, doves __________A.use landmarksB.don't know which way to flyC.fly back homeD.wait for the stars to appear
