19、ion. Then, mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.40 Some people seem to have a knack for learning languages. They can pick up new vocabulary, master rules of grammar, and learn to write in the new language more quickly than others. They do not seem to be any mor
20、e intelligent than others, so what makes languages so much easier for them to learn? Perhaps if we take a close look at these successful language learners we may discover a few of the techniques that make language learning easier for them.First of all, successful language learners are independent le
21、arners. They do not depend on the book or the teacher. They discover their own way to learn the language. Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain, they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves. They try to learn from their mistakes.Successful language learning is active learning.
22、Therefore, they do not wait for a chance to use the language. Instead they look for such a chance. They will try anything to communicate. They are not afraid to repeat what they hear and to say strange things. They are willing to make mistakes and try again. When communication is difficult, they can
23、 accept information that is inexact or incomplete. 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 the language because they are interested in the language and
24、 the people who speak it. It is necessary for them to learn language in order to communicate with these people and to learn from them.

28、ife of the cowboy really 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.

29、 to get to the trains. 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 horse
30、s. A cowboy changed horses several times each day.The cowboys had to make sure that cattle arrived safely. Before starting on a drive, the cowboys branded the cattle. They burned a mark on the cattle to show who they belonged to. But these marks didnt stop rustlers, or cattle thieves. Cowboys had to
31、 protect the cattle from rustlers. Rustlers made the dangerous trip even more dangerous.Even though their work was very difficult and dangerous, cowboys did not earn much money.

35、ite food in the United States is the hamburger. It seems impossible, but people eat 34 billion hamburgers a year.

36、t just a few minutes, and carry it to their tables themselves. They can eat it in the restaurant or take the food out and eat it at home, at work, or in a park.

37、at in their cars.Hamburgers are not the only kind of food that fast-food restaurants serve. Some serve fish, chicken, beef sandwiches, or Mexican food.

38、vice is fast and the food is inexpensive. For many people, this is more important than quality of the food. These restaurants are also popular because the food is always the same.

46、on 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 themselves.
