He is, even today, a symbol of courage and adventure. But what was the life of the cowboy r
35、eally like? The cowboy“s job is clear from the word cowboy. Cowboys were men who took care of cows and other cattle. The cattle were in the West and in Texas. People in the cities of the East wanted beef from these cattle. Trains could take the cattle east. But first the cattle had to get to the tra
36、ins. Part of the cowboy“s job was to take the cattle hundreds of miles to the railroad towns. The trips were called cattle drives. A cattle drive usually took several months. Cowboys rode for sixteen hours a day. Because they rode so much, each cowboy brought along about eight horses. A cowboy chang

42、(总题数：1，分数：10.00)How can English teachers accelerate the language learning of their students? One way is to teach students how to learn more effectively and efficiently. Learning strategies are “Procedures or techniques that learners can use to facilitate a learning task.“ Instructing students of Eng
43、lish in learning strategies can help them become better learners. In addition, skill in using learning strategies assists students in becoming independent, confident learners. Finally, students become more motivated as they begin to understand the relationship between their use of strategies and suc
44、cess in learning English. Students need to develop an awareness of the learning process and strategies that lead to success. Students who reflect on their own thinking are more likely to engage in planning how to proceed with a learning task, monitoring their own performance on an ongoing basis, fin
45、ding solutions to problems encountered, and evaluating themselves upon task completion. These activities may be difficult for students accustomed to having a teacher who solves all their learning problems and is the sole judge of their progress. Teachers need to encourage students to rely more on th
46、emselves. Because learning strategies are mental processes with few observable manifestations, teachers need to find ways to make the strategies as concrete as possible. When students are able to use the strategies their teachers have taught them, and to do so without prompting, then they need to ex
47、plore new strategies, new applications, and new opportunities for self-regulated learning.（分数：10.00）(1).Better learning strategies can make language learning more _.（分数：2.00）A.funB.interestingC.efficientD.exciting(2).Students who reflect on their own _ will be more successful in learning.（分数：2.00）A.
48、thinkingB.evaluationC.performanceD.activities(3).Teachers should encourage students to rely more on _.（分数：2.00）A.booksB.notesC.tutorsD.themselves(4).Learning strategies are unobservable mental processes, so teachers should make them _.（分数：2.00）A.simplerB.more familiarC.more concreteD.more applicable
49、(5).Which of the following statements is true?（分数：2.00）A.Students learn learning strategies from the teachers only.B.Learning strategies are completely unobservable.C.Students need to explore new learning strategies for themselves.D.Teachers are the sole judges of students“ progress.七、Passage 4(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Are you planning a
