28、en reading a new author, go more slowly in the first few pages.Lets suppose youve studied the basics of a foreign language and now wish to become more fluent in reading it. What do you do?As Ive studied several foreign languages over the years, Ive discovered some strategies that help.【C1 】_When lea
29、rning to read a foreign language we should remember that every real tongue(as opposed to a constructed language, like Esperanto)is first and foremost a spoken form of communication. Every foreign language was spoken for many years before it was written down. Theres good reason to believe that the sp
30、oken word comes more easily to us than the written page. When a person reads a foreign language out loud, it slows the pace down, and makes the reader pay more attention to each word. It helps us distinguish very similar words, and prevents us from skipping over those little words that are sometimes
31、 easy to miss when learning to read a foreign language. 【C2 】_This may sound pretty basic, but I discovered as I was learning to read a foreign language that text sizes that are easy to read in English are harder to read in, say, Greek or Spanish.

33、 to read in a foreign language you want to have a good dictionary of the foreign language you are trying to learn. But contrary to popular belief, when learning a foreign language, its not always necessary to look up every word you dont know. For example, if you are only unfamiliar with one word in
34、a phrase you are reading, but the meaning is clear from the context, it may not be necessary to reach for the dictionary. Let the context be your guide. Most of us, when we are learning to read our native tongues, do not look up every word, and the same applies as we are learning a foreign language.
35、【C4 】_Even when we are reading our native languages, its easy to see that authors have favorite words and phrases and their own particular styles. As you are learning to read a foreign language you will see that the same principle applies. Once you have looked up a few of the writers favorite words,
36、 and once you have gotten used to his or her idiosyncrasies, it will become easier to read a text written in a foreign language.【C5 】_Even in English, when the author writes about something entirely outside of our own experience, it can be difficult to understand what he or she is saying. If you stu
37、dy the Culture of the foreign language you are trying to learn it will give the language context. When trying to read an article about contemporary Mexico in Spanish, I came across several passages about conflicts between the different ethnic groups. Because I had already read about the “conquistado
38、rs“ or conquerors, it was easier to understand what was happening.In learning to read a foreign language, we should realize that we are learning a new skill. It is a very natural human skill, but a new skill all the same. Reading a foreign language is not as easy as reading your native tongue, and y
39、oull want to read shorter passages and stop more often than if you were reading your native English.When selecting material for your study of a foreign language, remember its easier to keep reading a story if youre enjoying it. We shouldnt think of learning a foreign language as purely a chore. Get
40、a novel that looks interesting or a book of short stories written in the foreign language you are studying. I found it much easier to learn a new language when I purchased a book that structured its lessons around a mystery story.I think this may be the most important tip on learning to read a forei
41、gn language that I can give you. Because when we dont enjoy doing something, we generally dont continue with it.And the more you learn, the more youll enjoy it.11 【C1 】12 【C2 】13 【C3 】14 【C4 】15 【C5 】15 The following paragraphs are given in a wrong order. For Questions 1-5, you are required to reorg
42、anize these paragraphs into a coherent article by choosing from the list A-G to fill in each numbered box. The first and the last paragraphs have been placed for you in Boxes. ATesla Motors aims to alter that perception. The venture, based in California and financed by Elon Musk, the founder of PayP
43、al, and Larry Page and Sergey Brin, the co-founders of Google, has unveiled a two-seat sports car. It will cost $ 89 ,000, and Tesla aims to sell a couple of thousand of them before introducing a cheaper, four-seat version. BThere was one gripe, though. Some of the petrolheads at Teslas launch party
44、 complained that the silence of the electric motor was too alien. They missed the grunt and growl of an internal- combustion engine. A Tesla engineer nearby came back with an idea: “Well program the software to have a variety of engine roars, just like ring tones on mobile phones. “ CThere is no dou
45、bting its breathtaking quickness. And the range of 400km is a heroic accomplishment, made possible by the use of advanced lithium-ion batteries and lightweight carbon-fibre bodywork. Dr. Musk, the firms chairman, concedes that racing Ferraris all the time would reduce the range somewhat, but points
46、out that, using the American governments methodology, the cars fuel efficiency is the equivalent of 52. 5km per litre of petrol(135 miles per American gallon). The average new American car gets less than 12km per litre. DTesla, though, aims to be even greener than that, according to Dr. Musk. The fi
47、rm plans to offer optional solar-photoelectric systems, to be set up as a car port at home, that will be able to power the cars for 80km a day without having to draw on the grid. Given that the average driver travels less than this, the idea promises, as Dr. Musk puts it, to “make our cars energy po
48、sitive“for those with Santa Monicas reliable sunshine, at least. EAsk people if they would buy a new electric car and most will respond blankly. After all, electric cars have not been seen in large numbers for nearly a century, and the golf carts and milk floats that represent electrified transport
49、today are hardly the sort of vehicle to win many people over. FThe grand claims of greenery might sound a bit fishy, given that most electricity is made from fossil fuels, but several studies have shown that electric vehicles which draw their power from a grid that is itself half coal-fired(as Americas is)produce less in the way of greenhouse gases than an average petrol-driven car. GThe cars design alone is likely t
