Students who say they never or hardly ever used dictionaries often speak English well, but usually write poorly because they make many mistakes.

The students who use dictionaries most do not learn quite well either. The ones who look up every new word do not read fast. For this reason, they do not have time to read much. Those who use small two-language dictionaries have the worst problems. Their dictionaries often give only one or two words as translations of English. But one English word often has many translations in a foreign language and one foreign word has many translations in English.

The most successful students are those who use large college edition dictionaries with about 100,000 words but do not use them too often. When they are reading, these students first try to get the general idea and understand new words from the context（語(yǔ)境）. Then they read again and use the dictionary to look up only key words that they still do not understand. They use dictionaries more for writing. If they are not sure how to spell a word, or divide it into syllables (音節(jié)), they always use a dictionary. Also, if they think a noun might have an unusual plural form, they check these in a dictionary.

51. Why are students who never used dictionaries poor in writing?

       A. Because they don’t know how to use right words. 

       B. Because they are not sure how to spell words.

       C. Because they make a large number of mistakes.

       D. Because they can’t understand the main idea.

52. The underlined word “they” (in Paragraph 2) refers to “_________”.

       A.  the students who only look up key words

       B. the students who look up every new word            

C. the students       who never use dictionaries  

D. the students who use large edition dictionaries

53. What kind of English learners are probably the most successful ones?

A. Those who use dictionaries most

B. Those who use small two-language dictionaries

C. Those who sometimes use large college edition dictionaries

D. Those who never or hardly ever use dictionaries

 54. When does the writer advise students to use a good dictionary?

   A. At the beginning of the reading.                              B. At the end of the reading.

   C. During the first reading.                                         D. After the first reading.

 55. What is the best title of the passage? 

     A. How to make good use of a dictionary                   B. Why to use a dictionary

C. How to improve spoken English                D. How to practise reading fast
