For many tests and exams, you are tested on your abilities to communicate successfully. In order to speak English fluently, you need to think in English. If you don’t, your speech will be slow and it won’t sound natural. Here are some things you can do to practice thinking in English.
Look at objects around your home and school, and think of what they are called in English. Try to make a direct connection between the object and the English word.
When you are out in a public place, practice describing the things and people you see in your mind. For example, think, "There is a man walking down the street. He’s wearing a suit. I think he is going to work. "Try to think in English first, not in your first language.
When you have to say something in English, think first and ask yourself" What words and phrases do I know in English that I can use in this situation "Try not to think in your first language and translate your ideas into English. If you do, you will get frustrated very quickly.
Try these tips and you’ ll soon find that you are thinking in English.
1．The passage is most probably written to .
A．students B．teachers C．parents D．reporters
2．The writer gives some advice on how to .
A．greet people in English B．practice thinking in English
C．write an article in English D．improve English listening skills
3．The passage above might be from the column（栏目）in a magazine.
A．News Corner B．Story Garden
C．Language World D．Technology Square
I travelled to Canada one summer with students from my French class. It was my first trip outside the United States. It was exciting because I could finally speak the foreign language I was learning and I could hear native speakers (说母语的人).
Canada is an excellent place to practise French for two reasons.
First, most people in the French-speaking part of Canada can speak both French and English. I can use French when I’m ready. There wouldn’t be much pressure (压力). If I have something very important to communicate, they can understand me if I speak English.
Second, people there like it when you try to speak French, although you only speak a little. They hold French in higher esteem (认为……更高贵) than English.
Interestingly enough, although I wanted to communicate in my newly learnt language, I soon found I could hardly use any of the words I had learnt when I tried to use them. We learnt the accent (口音) used in France, but the accent used in Canada is different from what we learnt. It sounded a little strange to me. And many words are completely different.
Although I didn’t get many chances to practise French in Canada, I’m still thankful for this experience.

【分析】短文主要讲述了去年作者不喜欢英语课，每一节课就像一场噩梦，后来有一天，作者看了一部英文电影叫《玩具总动员》，从此作者就喜欢上英语课了。并且得出兴趣是学习语言秘诀的结论。
19．句意：去年我一点也不喜欢我的英语课。四个选项中的单词都可以用作助动词，A. don't一般现在时；B. didn't一般过去时；C. haven't现在完成时；D. hadn't过去完成时。根据时间状语Last year判断，句子的时态为一般过去时，因此助动词要用didn’t，答案为B。
20．句意：由于我的发音不好我害怕回答问题。A. proud自豪的；B. afraid害怕的；C. happy高兴的；D. excited兴奋的。根据后面的句子“I just hid behind my textbook and never said ___4___.”可以判断，作者不敢回答老师提出的问题，be afraid to do sth.害怕做某事，故答案为B。
21．句意：由于我的发音不好我害怕回答问题。A. because of因为，由于，后跟代词/名词(名词性短语)/动词的ing形式；B. because因为，后跟从句；C. since由于，后面跟从句；D. as由于，当…时候，后面跟从句。只有A答案符合题意。
22．句意：我只是藏在课本后面，一言不发。A. anything任何东西（用于否定句、疑问句中）；B. something一些事情；C. nothing没有东西，没有事情；D. everything每件事物，一切。never是否定词，此句是否定句，故使用不定代词anything，答案为A。
23．句意：后来有一天我看了一部叫《玩具总动员》的英文电影。现在分词与过去分词都可以用作后置定语，现在分词作后置定语，与所修饰的词之间是主动关系，过去分词作后置定语，与所修饰的词之间是被动的关系，called Toy Story作an English movie的后置定语，意为一部被叫作《玩具总动员》的英文电影。表示被动关系，故答案为A。
24．句意：因此我也开始看其它的英文电影。A. as well“也”，放于句尾，前面没有标点符号；B. too“也”，常置于句末，前面有逗号；C. also“也”，一般用于句子中，其位置在行为动词之前，be动词，助动词，情态动词之后；D. neither两者都不。本题所设空在句末，且前面有标点符号，故答案为B。
25．句意：我也意识到我能通过听关键词来理解意思。by是介词，后面要用名词或动名词，by doing sth.通过做某事的方式，故答案为C。
26．句意：我在字典中查询它们。look up在（词典、参考书中）查阅；look for寻找；look at看一看；look after照顾。根据前面的内容可知，不会的单词在字典中查询，故答案为A。
27．provide
【详解】句意：我们的父母给我们提供食物和衣物。“provide”是动词，表达“提供”。句子是一般现在时，主语是复数概念，谓语动词用动词原形。短语“provide sb. with sth.”表达“给某人提供某物”。故填provide。
28．friendship
【详解】句意：她和Patrick有着亲密的友谊，因为他们彼此很了解。空处的词在形容词close之后，应是名词；结合后句“as they know each other well.”可知，应是和Patrick有着亲密的友谊，故空处应是friendship“友谊”，可数名词，因之前有不定冠词a修饰，故名词应用单数形式。故填friendship。
29．is going to fill
【详解】句意：冰箱现在是空的。杰克明天要把它装满各种各样的食物，不是吗？根据“tomorrow”可知，此处应该用一般将来时，结合“isn’t he”可知，此处应该用“is going to do”结构。故填is going to fill。
30．depend
【详解】句意：过分依赖手机是有害的。dependence“依靠，依赖”，是名词，depend“依靠，依赖”，是动词，It is+形容词+to do sth表示“做某事是……的”，it是形式主语，to do sth是真正主语，此处用动词原形，故填depend。
31．daily
【详解】句意：中国男子足球队的运动员们正在关注他们的日常训练。“training”是名词，修饰名词的应该是形容词，所以把名词day变为形容词daily。故填daily。
