A boy walked along Carver Street, singing a sad song. He walked with his head down. Once he looked up and noticed the sign across the empty street, painted on the side of an old house. On the sign a big woman with yellow hair and a five-mile smile held out a big bottle. “Coca-Cola. Drink Coca-Cola,” the sign said.

“Boy!” the silence was cut by a sudden cry. He turned around quickly to see who had called.

An old woman was standing at her door.

“You boy! Come here this minute!”

Slowly the boy ___1___ onto the cold flat stones leading to the old woman’s house. When he arrived at her house, she ___2___ out her hand and wrapped(缠住) her ___3___ old fingers around his arm.

“I am dying, Joseph. You can see that, can’t you? I want you to write a ___8___ for me. There’s paper and pencil on the table there.”

Joseph looked down at the ___9___, and then looked out the window. He saw the sign again: “Coca-Cola. Drink Coca-cola.”

“I want my silver pin to ___10___ to my daughter.”

Joseph bent his small body over the table and ___11___ the pencil slowly across the paper.

“There’s my Bible(圣经),” the old woman said. “That’s for my daughter, too. I want a ___12__ Christian burial(基督葬礼) with lots of singing. Write that down, too. That’s the last ___13__ of a poor old woman.”

The boy labored over the paper. Again he looked out the window.

“Here. Bring it here so I can ___14___ it.”

Joseph found the Bible, and ___15___the paper inside, laid it next to the bed.

“___16___ me now, boy,” she sighed. “I’m tired.”

He ran out of the house.

A cold wind blew through the ___17___ window, but the old woman on the bed ___18___ nothing. She was dead. The paper in the Bible moved back and forth in the wind. ___19___ on the paper were some childish letters. They ___20___ the words “Coca-Cola. Drink Coca-cola.”

If you’re like most students, you may find it challenging to learn a foreign language. However, there are a few tips you can use in order to earn a top grade —— as well as actually use the skills you’ve learned.

One of the most important and basic lessons in dealing with a foreign language is to learn and understand each concept and lesson before moving on to the next one. If you don’t understand one concept but move on to the next chapter anyway, you’re less likely to understand the new material.

Learning a new language is not only an academic tool, but can help you in your everyday life as well. Being good at another language can help you communicate with other people, and help you when traveling to foreign countries, and even make your resume look better.

And it is important to learn correct pronunciation as soon as possible for poor pronunciation can be hard to break. Native speakers of the language as well as others fluent in the language you are learning will appreciate your efforts to learn correct pronunciation.

Gather outside materials such as books, study guides, books on tape, and travel books to aid you in learning the language. Your textbooks can’t possibly teach you everything you need to know, so seeking outside sources is generally a good rule of thumb to keep in mind.

A significant motivator in learning a foreign language is traveling to the country where the language is spoken. That way, you can see firsthand how the language is used, learn the culture, and meet native speakers of the language. Native speakers appreciate sincere attempts of others who take the time to learn their language.

Seek out native speakers of your new language in your school or neighborhood. They can help you with many skills, including pronunciation, and they can provide immediate feedback on your progress.

1.This passage is written to        .

A.explain why learning a foreign language is challenging

A.textbooks are not good for us when learning a foreign language

B.learning pronunciation well from the very beginning is very important

C.poor pronunciation can be easy to break with the help of native speakers

Criticism can be divided into two types. 1._____ This is the type of criticism that can be the most hurtful. Parents might express their disapproval of your choice in career, friends or lifestyle. People may criticize how you dress or the way you act. It can be terribly unpleasant to tolerate it.

The second type of criticism involves pointing out your weaknesses and mistakes. No one is perfect, yet many imperfect people seem to find it extremely easy to “let us know” when we mess up. 2. _____And the fact that they are telling us what we already know makes it much more annoying.

When people express their disapproval of some area of your life you first need to consider how you feel about it. You need to be secure in who you are and the decisions that you make.3.____

Remember that there is a difference between being firm in your choices and being stubborn. Don’t be stubborn. Be mature enough to truly hear what they are saying, even if you don’t agree with it at first. 4._____If not, just let it go and trust that they meant well, but what they were saying is not for you. Don’t be mad at them.

5._____ Improving yourself works best if you can see yourself from different angles. Other people have different views on what you are doing and can help you. If you are one of those people who just want to learn the hard way, try listening to some advice for a change. It might do you some good.

A.In many cases, we already know a lot of what people are saying to us.

B.You may come to realize that they have a good view of things and are right.
