Paul: I can’t get the pronunciation right.
Ms. Manson: Well, listening can help. Why don’t you listen to English songs on the radio and repeat the difficult words?
Paul: That’s a good idea. But what about all the new words? I forget a lot of the new words.
Ms. Manson: You can always write the new words in your notebook and review them from time to time. You can even study on the subway on the way to school.
Paul: That might really help! Thanks.
Ms. Manson: Can you understand when people talk to you?
Paul: Well, not always. Sometimes I just don’t understand what people are saying.
Ms. Manson: Why don’t you join an English language club to practice speaking English? The English club meets after school on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Paul: Maybe I’ll go. The only other problem is that I don’t get much writing practice.

A
It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isn’t accepted by all people.
Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. Even language and mathematics need not be taught in detail (详细地), either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.

(W) Last Saturday, I decided to go to a movie. My little sister said she wanted to go with me, because she was afraid to stay at home alone. When we got to the
movie theater by taxi, a lot of people were waiting there to buy tickets. I saw a friend of mine, so I walked up and talked with him for a while. When we finished talking, I couldn’t find my sister. She was lost! I was so anxious that I called her name loudly time and time again, and I looked for her everywhere. Half an hour later, I found my sister in a shop near the theater. She was playing happily there.
We didn’t see the movie that day and went home early. From this experience, I learned that I must be more careful if I have to take my little sister out with me again. Qs: 21. Where did the speaker go last Saturday?

23. Who did the speaker meet there?

(W) I think it’s important to protect tigers. I’ve just read a report in a newspaper about saving tigers. It says that the number of tigers is getting smaller and smaller. There are about four hundred tigers now. I think there are two main reasons for this. One is that some people kill tigers to make money. For example, last Monday I saw a few people selling skins of tigers on the street. It’s terrible. The other reason is that too many trees have been cut down, which has destroyed the places where tigers are used to living.
Tigers are endangered. I hope that the government could do more to protect tigers. We should work together to build a pleasant home for both human beings and animals.
Qs: 21. Where has the speaker read the report?
22. How many tigers are there now?
23. When did the speaker see people selling skins of tigers?
24. How are the places where tigers are used to living?
25. What should the government do?
