Mau Piailug, Ocean Navigator
Mau sailed from Hawaii to Tahiti using traditional methods
In early 1976, a fisherman led an expedition in which he sailed a traditional Polynesian boat across 2,500 miles of ocean from Hawaii to Tahiti. The Polynesian Voyaging Society had organized the expedition. Its purpose was to find out if seafarers（海員）in the distant past could have found their way from one island to the other without navigational instruments, or whether the islands had been populated by accident. At the time, Mau was the only man alive who knew how to navigate just by observing the stars, the wind and the sea.
He had never before sailed to Tahiti, which was a long way to the south. However, he understood how the wind and the sea behave around islands, so he was confident he could find his way. The voyage took him and his crew a month to complete and he did it
His grandfather began the task of teaching him how to navigate when he was still a baby. He showed him pools of water on the beach to teach him how the behaviour of the waves and wind changed in different places. Later, Mau used a circle of stones to memorize the positions of the stars. Each stone was laid out in the sand to represent a star.
The voyage proved that Hawaii’s first inhabitants came in small boats and navigated by reading the sea and the stars. Mau himself became a keen teacher, passing on his traditional secrets to people of other cultures so that his knowledge would not be lost. He explained the position of the stars to his students, but he allowed them to write things down because he knew they would never be able to remember everything as he had done.
16．At the time of his voyage, Mau had unique navigational skills.
A．Right B．Wrong C．Not mentioned
17．Mau was familiar with the sea around Tahiti.
A．Right B．Wrong C．Not mentioned
18．Mau could not afford a compass or charts.
A．Right B．Wrong C．Not mentioned
19．Mau learnt navigation skills from his grandfather.
A．Right B．Wrong C．Not mentioned
20．Mau used stones to memories where the stars were situated in the sky.
A．Right B．Wrong C．Not mentioned
21．The first inhabitants of Hawaii could read and write.
A．Right B．Wrong C．Not mentioned
22．Mau expected his students to remember the positions of the stars immediately.
A．Right B．Wrong C．Not mentioned

Traffic Jams — No End in Sight
1 Traffic congestion affects people throughout the world. Traffic jams cause smog in dozens of cities across both the developed and developing world. In the U.S., commuters spend an average of a full work week each year sitting in traffic, according to the Texas Transportation Institute. While alternative ways of getting around are available, most people still choose their cars because they are looking for convenience, comfort and privacy.
2 The most promising technique for reducing city traffic is called congestion pricing, whereby cities charge a toll to enter certain parts of town at certain times of day. In theory, if the toll is high enough, some drivers will cancel their trips or go by bus or train. And in practice it seems to work: Singapore, London and Stockholm have reduced traffic and pollution in city centers thanks to congestion pricing.
3 Another way to reduce rush hour traffic is for employers to implement flexitime, which lets employees travel to and from work at off-peak traffic times to avoid the rush hour. Those who have to travel during busy times can do their part by sharing cars. Employers can also allow more staff to telecommute (work from home) so as to keep more cars off the road altogether.
4 Some urban planners still believe that the best way to ease traffic congestion is to build more roads, especially roads that can take drivers around or over crowded city streets. But such techniques do not really keep cars off the road; they only accommodate more of them.
5 Other, more forward-thinking, planners know that more and more drivers and cars are taking to the roads every day, and they are unwilling to encourage more private automobiles when public transport is so much better both for people and the environment. For this reason, the American government has decided to spend some billion on helping to increase capacity on public transport systems and upgrade them with more efficient technologies. But environmentalists complain that such funding is tiny compared with the billion being spent on roads and bridges.
A．Paying to get in
B．A solution which is no solution
C．Changing work practice
D．Closing city centres to traffic
E．Not doing enough
F．A global problem
23．Paragraph 1 _____

27．Most American drivers think it convenient to ________.
28．If charged high enough, some drivers may ________ to enter certain parts of town.
29．Building more roads is not an effective way to ________.
30．The U.S. government has planned to ________ updating public transport systems.
A．reduce traffic jams

第一篇 On the Trail of the Honey Badgers
On a recent field trip to the Kalahari Desert, a team of researchers learnt a lot more about honey badgers（獾）. The team employed a local wildlife expert, Kitso Khama, to help them locate and follow the badgers across the desert. Their main aim was to study the badgers’ movements and behaviour as discreetly（謹(jǐn)慎地）as possible, without frightening them away or causing them to change their natural behaviour. They also planned to trap a few and study them close up before releasing them. In view of the animal’s reputation, this was something that even Khama was reluctant to do.
“The problem with honey badgers is they are naturally curious animals, especially when they see something new,” he says. “that, combined with their unpredictable nature, can be a dangerous mixture. If they sense you have food, for example, they won’t be shy about coming right up to you for something to eat. They’re actually quite sociable creatures around humans, but as soon as they feel they might be in danger, they can become extremely vicious（兇惡的）. Fortunately this is rare, but it does happen.”
The research confirmed many things that were already known. As expected, honey badgers ate any creatures they could catch and kill. Even poisonous snakes, feared and avoided by most other animals, were not safe from them. The researchers were surprised, however, by the animal’s fondness for local melons, probably because of their high water content. Previously researchers thought that the animal got all of its liquid requirements from its prey（獵物）. The team also learnt that, contrary to previous research findings, the badgers occasionally formed loose family groups. They were also able to confirm certain results from previous research, including the fat that female badgers never socialized with each other.
Following some of the male badgers was a challenge, since they can cover large distances in a short space of time. Some hunting territories cover more than 500 square kilometers. Although they seem happy to share these territories with other males, there are occasional fights over an important food source, and male badgers can be as aggressive towards each other as they are towards other species.
As the badgers became accustomed to the presence of people, it gave the team the chance to get up close to them without being the subject of the animal’s curiosity — or their sudden aggression. The badgers’ eating patterns, which had been disrupted, returned to normal. It also allowed the team to observe more closely some of the other creatures that form working associations with the honey badger, as these seem to adopt the badgers’ relaxed attitude when near humans.
31．Why did the wildlife experts visit the Kalahari Desert?
A．To find where honey badgers live.
B．To observe how honey badgers behave.
C．To catch some honey badgers for food.
D．To find out why honey badgers have a bad reputation.
32．What does Kitso Khama say about honey badgers?
A．They show interest in things they are not familiar with.
B．They are always looking for food.
C．They do not enjoy human company.
D．It is common for them to attack people.
33．What did the team find out about honey badgers?
A．There were some creatures they did not eat.
B．They were afraid of poisonous creatures.
C．They may get some of the water they needed from fruit.
D．Female badgers did not mix with male badgers.
34．Which of the following is a typical feature of male badgers?
A．They don’t run very quickly.
B．They hunt over a very large area.
C．They defend their territory from other badgers.
D．They are more aggressive than females
35．What happened when honey badgers got used to humans around them?
A．They lost interest in people.
B．They became less aggressive towards other creatures.
C．They started eating more.
D．Other animals started working with them.
第二篇 Why So Many Children
In many of the developing countries in Africa and Asia, the population is growing fast. The reason for this is simple: Women in these countries have a high birth rate — from 3.0 to 7.0 children per woman. The majority of these women are poor, without the food or resources to care for their families. Why do they have many so children? Why don’t they limit the size of their families? The answer may be that they often have no choice. There are several reasons for this.
One reason is economic. In a traditional agricultural economy, large families are helpful. Having more children means having more workers in the fields and someone to take care of the parents in old age. In an industrial economy, the situation is different. Many children do not help a family; instead, they are an expense. Thus, industrialization has generally brought down the birth rate. This was the case in Italy, which was industrialized quite recently and rapidly. In the early part of the twentieth century, Italy was a poor, largely agricultural country with a high birth rate. After World War II, Italy’s economy was rapidly modernized and industrialized. By the end of the century, the birth rate had dropped to 1.3 children per woman, the world’s lowest.
However, the economy is not the only important factor that influences birth rate. Saudi Arabia, for example, does not have an agriculture-based economy, and it has one of the highest per capita incomes in the world. Nevertheless, it also has a very high birth rate (7.0). Mexico and Indonesia, on the other hand, are poor countries, with largely agricultural economies, but they have recently reduced their population growth.
Clearly, other factors are involved. The most important of these is the condition of women. A high birth rate almost always goes together with lack of education and low status for women. This would explain the high birth rate of Saudi Arabia. There, the traditional culture gives women little education or independence and few possibilities outside the home. On the other hand, the improved condition of women in Mexico, Thailand, and Indonesia explains the decline in birth rates in these countries. Their governments have taken measures to provide more education and opportunities for women.
Another key factor in the birth rate is birth control. Women may want to limit their families but have no way to do so. In countries where governments have made birth control easily available and inexpensive, birth rates have gone down. This is the case in Singapore, Sri Lanka, and India, as well as in Indonesia, Thailand, Mexico, and Brazil. In these countries, women have also been provided with health care and help in planning their families.
These trends show that an effective program to reduce population growth does not have to depend on better economic conditions. It can be effective if it aims to help women and meet their needs. Only then, in fact, does it have any real chance of success.
41．In a traditional agricultural economy, a large family
A．can be an advantage.
B．may limit income.
C．isn’t necessary.
D．is expensive.
42．When countries become industrialized, _______
A．families often become larger.
B．the birth rate generally goes down.
C．women usually decide not have a family.
D．the population generally grows rapidly.
43．Italy today is an example of an
A．a(chǎn)gricultural country with a high birth rate.
B．a(chǎn)gricultural country with a low birth rate.
C．industrialized country with a low birth rate.
D．industrialized country with a high birth rate.
44．Saudi Arabia is mentioned because it shows that
A．the most important factor influencing birth rate is the economy.
B．factors other than the economy influence birth rate.
C．women who have a high income usually have few children.
D．the birth rate depends on per capita income.
45．In Mexico, as in Thailand and Indonesia, the government
A．is not concerned about the status of women.
B．has tried to industrialize the country rapidly.
C．does not allow women to work outside the home.
D．has tried to improve the condition of women.
第三篇 Making a Loss is the Height of Fashion
Given that a good year in the haute couture（高級(jí)定制女裝） business is one where you lose even more money than usual, the prevailing mood in Paris last week was of recession-busting buoyancy. The big-name designers were falling over themselves to boast of how many outfits they had sold at below cost price, and how this proved that the fashion business was healthier than ever. Jean-Paul Gaultier reported record sales, “but we don’t make any money out of it,” the designer assured journalists backstage. “No matter how successful you are, you can’t make a profit from couture,” explained Jean-Jacques Picart, a veteran fashion PR man, and co-founder of the now-bankrupt Lacroix house.
Almost 20 years have passed since the Alice in Wonderland economics of the couture business were first exposed. Outraged that he was losing money on evening dresses costing tens of thousands of pounds, the couturier Jean-Louis Scherrer — to howls of “trahison” from his colleagues - published a detailed summary of his costs. One outfit he described contained over half a mile of gold thread, 18,000 sequins（亮片）, and had required hundreds of hours of hand-stitching in an atelier（制作室）. A fair price would have been ?50,000, but the couturier could only get ?35,000 for it. Rather than riding high on the follies of the super-rich, he and his team could barely feed their hungry families.
The result was an outcry and the first of a series of government - and industry-sponsored inquiries into the surreal（超現(xiàn)實(shí)的）world of ultimate fashion. The trade continues to insist that - relatively speaking - couture offers you more than you pay for, but it’s not as simple as that. When such a temple of old wealth starts talking about value for money, it isn’t to convince anyone that dresses costing as much as houses are a bargain. Rather, it is to preserve the peculiar mystique（神秘）, lucrative（利潤(rùn)豐厚的） associations and threatened interests that couture represents.
Essentially, the arguments couldn’t be simpler. On one side are those who say that the business will die if it doesn’t change. On the other are those who say it will die if it does. What’s not in doubt is that haute couture - the term translates as “high sewing” - is a spectacular anachronism. Colossal in its costs, tiny in its clientele and questionable in its influence, it still remains one of the great themes of Parisian life. In his book, The Fashion Conspiracy, Nicholas Coleridge estimates that the entire couture industry rests on the whims（一時(shí)興起）of less than 30 immensely wealthy women, and although the number may have grown in recent years with the new prosperity of Asia, the number of couture customers worldwide is no more than 4,000.
To qualify as couture, a garment must be entirely hand-made by one of the 11 Paris couture houses registered to the Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture. Each house must employ at least 20 people, and show a minimum of 75 new designs a year. So far, so stirringly traditional, but the Big Four operators - Chanel, Dior, Givenchy and Gaultier — increasingly use couture as a marketing device for their far more profitable ready-to-wear, fragrance and accessory lines.
36．What is the main idea of the first paragraph?
A．The haute couture business is expanding quickly.
B．The haute couture designers make much profit in their sales.
C．The haute couture designers claim losses in their sales.
D．The haute couture businessmen are happy with their profit.
37．According to the second paragraph, Jean-Louis Scherrer
A．was very angry as he was losing money.
B．was in a worse financial position than other couturier.
C．was one of the best known couturiers.
D．stopped producing haute couture dresses.
38．The writer says that the outfit Jean-Louis Scherrer described
A．was worth the price that was paid for it.
B．cost more to make than it should have.
C．was never sold to anyone.
D．should have cost the customer more than it did.
39．The writer says in paragraph 4 that there is disagreement over
A．the future of haute couture.
B．the history of haute couture.
C．the real costs of haute couture.
D．the changes that need to be made in haute couture.
40．What is the writer’s tone towards haute couture business?
A．Somewhat ironical.
B．Quite supportive.
C．Fairly friendly.
D．Rather indifferent.

Arthritis is an illness that can cause pain and swelling in your bones. Toads, a big problem in the north of Australia, are suffering from painful arthritis in their legs and backbone, a new study has shown. The toads that jump the fastest are more likely to be larger and to have longer legs. ________ (46).
The large yellow toads, native to South and Central America, were introduced into the north-eastern Australian state of Queensland in 1935 in an attempt to stop beetles and other insects from destroying sugarcane crops. Now up to 200 million of the poisonous toads exist in the country, and they are rapidly spreading through the state of Northern Territory at a rate of up to 60 km a year. The toads can now be found across more than one million square kilometers. ________ (47) A Venezuelan poison virus was tried in the 1990s but had to be abandoned after it was found to also kill native frog species.
The toads have severely affected ecosystems in Australia. Animals, and sometimes pets, that eat the toads die immediately from their poison, and the toads themselves eat anything they can fit inside their mouth. ________ (48)
A co-author of the new study, Rick Shine, a professor at the University of Sydney, says that little attention has been given to the problems that toads face. Rick and his colleagues studied nearly 500 toads from Queensland and the Northern Territory and found that those in the latter state were very different. They were active, sprinting down roads and breeding quickly.
According to the results of the study, the fastest toads travel nearly one kilometre a night. ________ (49) But speed and strength come at a price — arthritis of the legs and backbone due to constant pressure placed on them.
In laboratory tests, the researchers found that after about 15 minutes of hopping, arthritic toads would travel less distance with each hop. ________ (50) These toads are so programmed to move, apparently, that even when in pain the toads travelled as fast and as far as the healthy ones, continuing their relentless march across the landscape.
A．Furthermore, they soon take over the natural habitats of Australia’s native species.
B．Toads are not built to be road runners — they are built to sit around ponds and wet areas.
C．But this advantage also has a big drawback — up to 10% of the biggest toads suffer from arthritis.
D．But arthritis didn’t slow down toads outside the laboratory, the researchers found.
E．The task now facing the country is how to remove the toads.
F．Toads with longer legs move faster and travel longer distances, while the others are being left behind.

第3部分：概括大意與完成句子
23 F 第一段講述的是交通擁堵是全世界的一個(gè)大問(wèn)題。
24 A 第二段講述了控制交通量的一個(gè)方法，即對(duì)在某個(gè)時(shí)間進(jìn)人某個(gè)區(qū)域的車輛征收費(fèi)用。
25 C 第三段講述的是另一個(gè)控制交通量的方法，即實(shí)行靈活上班時(shí)間，允許雇員避開(kāi)交通高峰出行。
26 B 第四段講述的是部分城市規(guī)劃者認(rèn)為應(yīng)該建造更多的公路，不過(guò)這種方法并不會(huì)減少交通量，而是能容納更多的車輛。
27 C 第一段最后第一句：While alternative ways of getting around are available, most people still choose their cars because they are looking for convenience, comfort and privacy.由此可知人們認(rèn)為開(kāi)車比較方便。
28 E 第二段第二句：In theory, if the toll is high enough, some drivers will cancel their trips or go by bus or train.由此可知答案為E。
29 A 第四段第二句：But such techniques do not really keep cars off the road…由此可知建造更多公路并不能減少交通堵塞。
30 B 第五段第二句：For this reason, the American government has decided to spend some $ 7 billion on helping to increase capacity on public-transport systems and upgrade them with more efficient technologies.美國(guó)政府決定增加公共交通投人。由此可知答案為B。
第4部分：閱讀理解
31 B 第一段第三句：Their main aim was to study the badgers' movements and behaviour as screetly（謹(jǐn)慎地）as possible.可推斷出此次調(diào)查的目的是了解獾的習(xí)性。
32 C 第二段講述了Khama對(duì)獾的評(píng)價(jià)，即它們有很強(qiáng)的好奇心。
32 C 由第三段可知，獾對(duì)當(dāng)?shù)氐奈鞴虾芨信d趣，到水分。獾通常會(huì)吃它們所能抓到的任何動(dòng)物獾會(huì)組成松散的家庭，因此可排除D項(xiàng)。
34 B 第四段講了雄性獾的特征，它們能在短時(shí)間內(nèi)行進(jìn)很長(zhǎng)的距離，因此B項(xiàng)正確。它們樂(lè)意同其他雄性獾分享領(lǐng)地，因此C錯(cuò)誤。文中并沒(méi)有提到它們?cè)诤枚沸苑矫嫱菩遭档膮^(qū)別，因此排除D項(xiàng)。
35 A 最后一段第一句：As the badgers became accustomed to the presence of people, it gave the team the chance to get up close to them without being the subject of the animals’ curiosity - or their sudden aggression.獾在習(xí)慣人的存在之后興趣就不那么濃厚了。
36 A 第二段第二句：In a traditional agricultural economy, large families are helpful.傳統(tǒng)農(nóng)業(yè)經(jīng)濟(jì)中，孩子多對(duì)家庭有利。
37 B 第二段第六句：Thus, industrialization has generally brought down the birth rate.工業(yè)化國(guó)家的出生率通常比較低。
38 C 第二段講到意大利的情況。第二次世界大戰(zhàn)后，意大利經(jīng)濟(jì)快速發(fā)展，同時(shí)出生率也逐漸下降，在20世紀(jì)末成為世界最低。
39 B 文章開(kāi)始說(shuō)到，通常經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)達(dá)的國(guó)家出生率低，但沙特阿拉伯是人均收人最高的國(guó)家之一，但出生率也很高，然后引出了影響出生率的其他原因。因此，提到沙特阿拉伯是為了說(shuō)明除經(jīng)濟(jì)因素外其他影響出生率的因素。
40 D 最后一段第四句和第五句：This is the case in Singapore, Sri Lanka, and India, as well as in Indonesia, Thailand, Mexico, and Brazil. In these countries, women have also been provided with health care and help in planning their families.政府在努力提高女性地位。
41 C 第一段講到，許多著名設(shè)計(jì)師都在大肆宣揚(yáng)他們以低于成本價(jià)的價(jià)格賣了多少件衣服，后面又引用了幾位設(shè)計(jì)師的話，說(shuō)他們不會(huì)從服裝設(shè)計(jì)上賺任何錢，因此第一段的主題是高級(jí)定制女裝設(shè)計(jì)師們宣稱自己在虧損。
42 A 第二段第二句的開(kāi)頭是：Outraged that he was losing money on evening dresses costing tens of thousands of pounds,……說(shuō)明Jean-Louis對(duì)自己的虧損很生氣。其他三項(xiàng)中所提到的事文中并未提及。
43 D 第二段倒數(shù)第二句：A fair price would have been￡ 50,000,but the couturier could only get￡35, 000 for it.說(shuō)明服裝的價(jià)格應(yīng)該更高，可實(shí)際賣不到那么多錢。
44 A 第四段第二句、第三句：On one side are those who say that the business will die if it doesn't change. On the other are those who say it will die if it does.人們是在為定制女裝的未來(lái)爭(zhēng)論。
45 A 此題通過(guò)文章的標(biāo)題和正文的討論便可判斷作者的態(tài)度有些諷刺的意味。
第5部分：補(bǔ)全短文
46 C 第一段主要講述研究顯示蟾蜍會(huì)患關(guān)節(jié)炎。前面的句子講跳得快的蟾蜍可能體型更大并且腿更長(zhǎng)，然后話鋒一轉(zhuǎn)，說(shuō)這種優(yōu)勢(shì)也有一個(gè)大弊端，那就是體型大的蟾蜍更容易患關(guān)節(jié)炎。
47 E 前文講述澳大利亞的蟾蜍過(guò)多影響了生態(tài)平衡，后面講的是人們嘗試消滅蟾蜍但失敗了，因此填入的句子應(yīng)該是關(guān)于消滅蟾蜍的。
48 A 前文講到蟾蜍的適應(yīng)性極強(qiáng)，什么都能吃，而它的天敵卻因?yàn)樗亩拘远劳隽耍虼梭蛤墁F(xiàn)在對(duì)澳大利亞的生態(tài)環(huán)境產(chǎn)生了極大影響。
49 F 要填人的句子后面有but，說(shuō)明是轉(zhuǎn)折，后面講的是速度和力量帶來(lái)的負(fù)面影響，而前文則應(yīng)該是講它的優(yōu)點(diǎn)，因此F項(xiàng)人選。
50 D 前文講蟾蜍在實(shí)驗(yàn)室內(nèi)越跳越慢，后文講在野外蟾蜍習(xí)慣于跳躍，即使疼痛也要盡量跳得快。D項(xiàng)講的是在野外蟾蜍的跳躍速度不會(huì)越來(lái)越慢，符合題義。
第6部分：完形填空
51 D 許多人被回顧往事這一想法吸引了。
52 A investigate“調(diào)查”。原文意思是查看自己的家族史。
53 C find out“找出”。
54 B with a ... history“有一個(gè)……樣的歷史”，為固定搭配。
55 D go through a book“瀏覽一本書(shū)”。
56 A make the decision“做決定”，為固定搭配。
57 B carry out a research“做調(diào)查”。
58 C in a…way“以某種方式”。
59 C 它可能給你帶來(lái)很多問(wèn)題，而如果事先有一點(diǎn)計(jì)劃的話，這些問(wèn)題本可以避免。
60 D that引導(dǎo)賓語(yǔ)從句。
61 A take over“接管，接替，取代”，句子意思是不要讓這樣的想法干擾了你的研究。
62 B possibility“可能性”，因?yàn)槟阌辛艘粋€(gè)親戚是名人，也就意味著你也有可能成為一位名人，這是一種可能性。其他三個(gè)選項(xiàng)都不能搭配。
63 D to start with“開(kāi)始某件事”，句子意思是：開(kāi)始的時(shí)候，一個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單些的收集和儲(chǔ)藏信息的模式更為合適。
64 B get in one's way“擋路”，為固定搭配。
65 A 句子意思是：誰(shuí)能知道你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)什么呢？
1、盡可能多的講英語(yǔ)
學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)就是為了能夠更好的交流，因此英語(yǔ)的“說(shuō)”的能力是至關(guān)重要的，不過(guò)我們周圍很多的朋友并不能開(kāi)口說(shuō)好英語(yǔ)，這主要也跟他們的心理素質(zhì)有關(guān)，因此首先要克服自己的心理障礙，盡可能多的開(kāi)口講英語(yǔ)，同時(shí)試著將大部分的時(shí)間花在和比你講得好的人交談。
2、看英語(yǔ)電視或者聽(tīng)英語(yǔ)錄音
正確的學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)，在聽(tīng)和說(shuō)里面，要注意把握節(jié)奏感，這種節(jié)奏感可以通過(guò)觀看英語(yǔ)電視或者錄音來(lái)體會(huì)，針對(duì)初級(jí)學(xué)習(xí)者，要注意多聽(tīng)英語(yǔ)錄音，試著聽(tīng)話語(yǔ)的速度，以及它是在哪一種語(yǔ)境下發(fā)音的，語(yǔ)調(diào)又是什么樣的，在外界環(huán)境下的發(fā)音是可以讓學(xué)習(xí)者真切感受到語(yǔ)言的特點(diǎn)的。
3、犯錯(cuò)誤及時(shí)糾正
在學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)的過(guò)程中，難免會(huì)犯各種各樣的錯(cuò)誤，有些學(xué)習(xí)者由于各方面的原因害怕犯錯(cuò)誤，而沒(méi)有將自己投入到英語(yǔ)的學(xué)習(xí)中，學(xué)習(xí)時(shí)畏手畏腳，不能很好的理解英語(yǔ)句子的含義也不敢說(shuō)出自己的真實(shí)想法。其實(shí)這并不利于英語(yǔ)的學(xué)習(xí)，學(xué)習(xí)一門(mén)外來(lái)語(yǔ)言最重要的就是弄懂它的意思掌握它的用法，犯的錯(cuò)誤越多對(duì)自己的幫助就會(huì)越多，一定不要害怕錯(cuò)誤，有了錯(cuò)誤及時(shí)糾正就可以了，不要將錯(cuò)誤忽略或者掩飾掉才能將英語(yǔ)技能真正提高和掌握。
如何記憶英語(yǔ)單詞
利用便簽記憶
實(shí)物記憶針對(duì)那些平時(shí)比較忙，沒(méi)有太多時(shí)間專門(mén)去背單詞的同學(xué)效果很好?？梢赃x取日常生活中的實(shí)物。在上面貼上便利貼，寫(xiě)上對(duì)應(yīng)單詞，不論什么時(shí)候看到了就口頭或者心里背一遍。這樣每天堅(jiān)持，在不經(jīng)意中就牢記了很多單詞。
利用小本子記憶
可以隨身攜帶一個(gè)小本子，在上面記錄每天需要背的單詞。在空閑時(shí)間拿出來(lái)看看，可以加深印象。比如說(shuō)：在公交車上、在地鐵上、睡覺(jué)之前、下課時(shí)都可以。很方便，很實(shí)用。
利用手機(jī)軟件記憶
現(xiàn)在有很多手機(jī)軟件可以幫助我們隨時(shí)記單詞。打開(kāi)以后里面有不同的詞匯表，選擇一個(gè)詞匯表進(jìn)行背誦。背過(guò)以后還有復(fù)習(xí)和評(píng)分功能，根據(jù)漢語(yǔ)在手機(jī)上寫(xiě)出英語(yǔ)單詞，或者根據(jù)英語(yǔ)單詞寫(xiě)出漢語(yǔ)，最后系統(tǒng)會(huì)自動(dòng)打分。非常方便。
