They do not depend on books or teachers; they discov

24、er their own way to learn the language. Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain everything, they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves. They are good guessers who look for clues and form their own conclusions.Successful language learning is active learning. Therefore, successfu

25、l learners do not wait for a chance to use the language; they look for such a chance. They find people who speak the language and ask these people to correct them when they make a mistake. They will try anything to communicate. When communication is difficult, they can accept information that is nei

26、ther exact nor complete. It is more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every word.Finally, successful language learners are learners with a purpose. They want to learn a language because they are interested in the language and the people who speak it. It

27、 is necessary for them to learn the language in order to communicate with these people and to learn from them.47. Successful language learners want to learn the language because .A. they have to pass the examinationB. they have interest in the languageC. they think ifs very easy to learn the languag

28、eD. they want to find better jobs48.

29、e learners meet some new words, theyusually .A. pay no attention to them B. look them up in the dictionary at onceC. ask their teachers D. try to guess their meanings50.Which one of the following statements is true about successful language learning according to the passage?A. They are more intellig

30、ent than others.B. They have their own ways of learning.C. They have good teachers and good books.D. They spend much more time learning than others.51.What is the purpose of this passage?A.

31、 techniques of language learning.D. To compare language learning with language teachingCNowadays，the food that you buy comes from many countries. Have a look in your fridge， cupboard，and fruit bowl and check the origins (来源 ) of the food. Perhaps there are apples from California, lamb from New Zeala

32、nd, or potatoes from Egypt. You will probably be surprised how far food travels to get to your plate. This journey，from “field to plate”，is called “food miles”. A food mile is the distance that food travels from the farmer 5s field to the person who buys the food. Nowadays，food often travels thousan

33、ds of miles to get to the consumer(消费者). Why is this，and what are the effects of these long distances?Traditionally, farmers sold their food in the local market, so the food didnt have to travel very far. The consumers also did not travel very far because they went to their local market to buy the f

34、ood. This was a good system for farmers and consumers. However, there were some disadvantages. For example, consumers could only buy food that farmers produced locally. In addition, they could only get food that was in season. Now because of modem technology, food comes from all over the world. We d

35、o not have to wait for spring or summer to buy strawberries or tomatoes. They are available in winter if we want.Some countries have to import (进口） most of their food. This is because they have difficult climates. The United Arab Emirates(UAE), for example, gets 85% of its food from other countries.

36、 Even food made in the UAE often uses imported materials.Whats wrong with “food miles”？ Is this not a good way of increasing international trade? I believe these miles are worrying for a number of reasons. First of all, because food travels such long distances, we need more planes, lorries, and ship

37、s to move the food. This means we use more oil or petrol, so there is more pollution and more global warming. In addition, food that travels a long way is not fresh and usually not very tasty. Tomatoes，for example，are picked early and stored for their long journeys. For this reason, they are usually

38、 tasteless when they get to the consumer. Local food has a better taste, and it also reduces the amount of global pollution. We need to buy more local food.52.What is called “food miles” according to the passage?A. The origin of the food.B. The effect of long distances.C. The journey from field to p

39、late.D. The disadvantages of imported food.53.The word “available” in Paragraph 2 most probably means “ ”A. easy to get B. not busy C. willing to talk D. impossible to get 54.Some countries, like the United Arab Emirates, have to import most of their food because ofA. long distances B. difficult cli

41、B. where different kinds of food come fromC. how some countries import their foodD. what “food miles” is and its effectsDThere are many places to go on safari（观赏野生动物）in Africa, but riding a horse through the flooded waters of Botswana's Okavango Delta must rank as one of the world's most exc

42、iting wildlife journeys.Several safari camps operate as the base for this adventure, providing unique rides twice a day to explore deep into the delta. The camps have excellent horses, professional guides and lots of support workers. They have a reputation for providing a great riding experience.The

43、 morning ride, when the guides take you to beautiful, shallow lakes full of water lilies, tends to be more active. It is unlike any other riding experience. With rainbows forming in the splashing water around you and the sound of huge drops of water bouncing off your body and face. It is truly excit

44、ing. You are very likely to come across large wild animals, too. On horseback it is possible to get quite close to elephants, giraffes and many other animals. The sense of excitement and tension levels rise suddenly though, as does your heart rate, as you move closer to them.In the evening, rides ar

45、e usually at a more relaxed and unhurried pace. With golden light streaming across the grassy delta and the animals coming out to eat and drink. Sedate though they are, rides at this time of day are still very impressive. As the sun's rays pass through the dust kicked up by the horses, the roman
