When I was a boy, I was always happy to see those little brown coins. After years I was still very happy to pick up pennies on the ground.

I usually saved them up. I usually bought a pack of gum or a bag of chips when it was enough. After growing up, I heard a story about coins. It was said that our loved people sometimes would leave pennies on the ground in front of us. People wanted to show us that we were loved and watched over kindly. I never doubted that story even as an adult. It is difficult for me to find a lot of money on the ground, but pennies are there all the time. Maybe that is why I still enjoy seeing them and picking them up, no matter how dirty or old they are.

A few months ago, I was walking to the local post office to mail a letter. As I entered the room, I saw not one, not two, but four pennies shining in the sunlight. I smiled and picked them up. I kept them in my hands as I walked in the post office. “Four is Ok,” an office said to a lady. The lady began searching her purse. Her face went red. I understood what had happened. I laughed to myself at this surprising moment. I placed my pennies on the desk before her. The smile I got in return was worth a thousand dollars.

The coins weren’t so valuable to me, but they did matter to her. I just performed a little kindness. I was happy.

English can be a difficult language to learn, but there are certain things you can do to learn the language a lot faster. Here we show you how to quickly learn to speak English.

Start by taking a class that teaches English for beginners. These classes are commonly referred to as “ESL” classes, or “English as a Second Language”. The teachers of these classes have the experience to teach a variety of students.

Buy an English audio or DVD course. You can review these classes in your own spare time and learn quite a bit. However, if you are serious about wanting to learn English faster, then you will want to review the course at every opportunity you have. Buy an audio course and listen to it in the car or while working, if possible. The higher the quality of the course is, the faster you’ll learn.

Practice speaking English with native English speakers. Make friends with people who do not speak your native language and are willing to help you learn English by having simple conversations with you. You will be surprised at how quickly you can start having entire conversations in English.

Watch television shows or moves that are in English and with no subtitles(字幕) in your native language. Pay attention to the dialogue and try to figure out what the actors are saying. Congratulate yourself when you are able to pick out certain words and phrases that you understand.

B. still believed the story about coins D. found old people forget coins on the ground B. A bag of sugar. D. A pack of chips.

Read newspapers, books and magazines that are printed in English. At first they won’t maker much sense, but as your knowledge grows, so will your understanding of written English. Understanding written English will surely help you learn to speak the language. 25．What is the passage mainly about? A. Which English classes to attend C. How to learn to speak English quickly 26. In Paragraph 2, we are advised to _____. A. learn English from native speakers C. learn English with a teacher at home

B. learn English from a foreign teacher D. take some easy English classes B. Why English is difficult to learn D. How to learn English by ourselves

27. If we buy an English audio or DVD course, we _____. A. have to pay for it every month C. can’t listen to it while driving a car

B. can’t make use of it while working D. can listen to it whenever we have time

28. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?

Stonehenge is a popular tourist destination. It is considered as “Britain’s Best Historic Site”. The ancient site also topped a survey of the “Seven Wonders of Britain”. Part of an ancient landscape, Stonehenge is one of the most impressive ancient monuments in the world. Here are some tips for visiting Stonehenge.

Arrive early. If you want to take good photos, you had better get there before the tour buses. Between high school field trips and tourists, you might just be miserable if you come after about 10:30 am.

Don’t expect too much magic. Stonehenge is situated along a busy highway. You’ll be driving for an hour and then it comes into view in the middle of the Salisbury plain. There’s no mystical lead-up to the ancient wonders --- it’s just THERE. It’s easy and cheap enough to find car hire in the UK for families, so that’s a good choice if you come from London.

Get an audio guide. They’re free and helpful. Much of what is known about Stonehenge is hypothetical(假设的), so I don’t think I knew any more when I left then when I arrived, but still, it’s nice to have a little tour in the palm of your hand.

Do more. I think if you just visited Stonehenge, you might be a bit disappointed. I coupled my visit with a bus tour of the Cotswolds, including several Harry Potter and Jane Austen adaptation filming locations. That made the trip worthwhile --- Stonehenge alone might not have been enough.

Plan ahead for better access. If you want to get up close and personal to the stones, you’ll need to sort out a Special Access Visit. If you show up as I did with a tour, you’ll wander around the edge of the circle about 10-20 yards away from the stone. That’s fine, and honestly, getting any closer won’t do you much good. But if something inside that ancient stone circle attracts you to come closer, there are ways to gain access outside normal visiting hours. 29. To take good photos, you should ____. A. arrive before 10:30 am C. travel with other tourists

B. come by tour bus D. book your visit in advance

30. What can you do if you want to make your trip more interesting? A. Employ a tour guide C. Come with your family

B. Visit other scenic spots D. Read some popular novels

31. A With a Special Access Visit, you can ____. A. get a cheaper ticket C. get closer to the stones

B. stay longer at the spot D. take a photo with the stones D

Researchers found animals lovers exercise their pet twice a day for 24 minutes each time --- a total of five hours and 36 minutes a week. On top of that, the average dog owner also takes part pet out to take three long walks each week adding another two hours and 33 minutes to the total. But those without a dog spend an average of just one hour and 20 minutes per week exercising by going to the gym or heading out for a walk or jog. And almost half of non-pet owners admit they take no exercise.

A spokesperson said the difference between the two was that going to the gym can feel like a boring task while dog-walking can be far more enjoyable. “Having a couple of short walks every day soon adds up and this research shows that it amounts to more time than people spend in the gym,” he

said. And gym goers exercise inside an air-conditioned gym, while dog walkers are able to jog for miles and enjoy fresh air when admiring the Great British countryside.”

The study of 5,000 people, including 3,000 dog owners, showed that 57 percent of those considered walking the dog as their main form of exercise. More three quarters said they would rather take their dog for a walk than go to the gym. A total of 86 percent said they enjoyed taking their pet out each day, with just 22 percent saying they sometimes saw it as a boring task. But only 16 percent of respondent said they enjoyed exercising in the gym, while almost 70 percent considered it a boring task.

The survey shows that having a dog to walk actually encourages regular exercise, with 60 percent of pet owners saying they always go for a walk with their dog --- even when timer is precious(宝贵的)。

32. What is the main idea of this passage? A People without a pet usually go to the gym B. Pet owners spend no time exercising in the gym

C. Dog owners usually get more exercise than gym goers D. People do exercise either by walking a dog or going to the gym

33. According to the study, on average each week dog owners walk their dog for _____. A. one hour and 20 minutes C. two hours and 36 minutes

B. eight hours and 9 minutes D. five hours and 36 minutes

34. The writer mentioned what the spokesperson said in Paragraph 2 mainly to show that _____. A. walking a dog can be tiring sometimes B. taking exercise in the gym can be very comfortable

C. people prefer to exercise in the gym rather than walk a dog D. walking a dog is more enjoyable than exercising in the gym

35. The underlined word “respondents” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to people who ____. A. like walking their dogs C. took part in the study
