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 strateg
23、ies are “Procedures or techniques that learners can use to facilitate a learning task.“ Instructing students of English in learning strategies can help them become better learners. In addition, skill in using learning strategies assists students in becoming independent, confident learners. Finally,
24、students become more motivated as they begin to understand the relationship between their use of strategies and success 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 t
25、o engage in planning how to proceed with a learning task, monitoring their own performance on an ongoing basis, finding 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 thei
26、r learning problems and is the sole judge of their progress. Teachers need to encourage students to rely more on themselves. 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 a
27、re able to use the strategies their teachers have taught them, and to do so without prompting, then they need to explore new strategies, new applications, and new opportunities for self-regulated learning.(1). Better learning strategies can make language learning more( ). A. fun B. interesting C. ef

29、ntal processes, so teachers should make them ( ) A. simpler B. more familiar C. more concrete D. more applicable (5). Which of the following statements is true? ( ) A. Students learn learning strategies from the teachers only. B. Learning strategies are completely unobservable. C. Students need to e
30、xplore new learning strategies for themselves. D. Teachers are the sole judges of students progress. 2. Most animals have little connection with animals of different kind, unless they hunt them for food. Sometimes, however, two kinds of animals come together in a partnership ( 伙伴关系 ) which does good
31、 to both of them. You may have noticed some birds sitting on the backs of sheep. This is not because they want a ride, but because they find easy food in the parasites (寄生虫 ) on sheep. The sheep allow the birds to do so because they remove the cause of discomfort. So although they can manage without
32、 each other, they do better together. Sometimes an animal has a plant partner. The relationship develops until the two partners cannot manage without each other. This is so in the corals ( 珊瑚 ) of the sea. In their skins they have tiny plants act as “dustman“, taking some of the waste products form
33、the corals and giving in return oxygen which the animal needs to breathe. If the plants are killed, or are ever prevented from lighting so that they cannot live normally, the corals will die.(1).

Exercise is one of the few factors with a positive role in long-term maintenance of body weight. Unfortunately, that message
37、 has not gotten through to the average American, who would rather try switching to “light” beer and low -calorie bread than increase physical exertion. Doctors found that less than one-fourth of overweight adults who were trying to reduce weight said they were combining exercise with their diet. Sti
38、ll, exercises supporting role in weight reduction is necessary. A study confirmed that those who dieted without exercise regained almost all their old weight, while those who worked exercise into their daily routine maintained their new weight.
