Before you go to another country it is a great help if you know the language and some of the customs of the country.

When people meet each other for the first time in Britain, they say, “How do you do? ”and shake hands. Usually they do not shake hands when they just meet or say goodbye. But they shake hands after they haven’t met for a long time or when they will be away from each other for a long time.

Last year a group of German students went to England for a holiday. Their teacher told them that the English people hardly shake hands. So when they met their English friends at the station, they kept their hands behind their backs. The English students had learned that the Germans shake hands as often as possible, so they put their hands in front and got ready to shake hands with them. It made both of them laugh.

If you get into the forest with your friends, stay with them always. If you don’t, you may get lost. If you really get lost, this is what you should do. Sit down and stay where you are. Don’t try to find your friends—let them find you by staying in one place.

There is another way to help your friends or other nearby people to find you. Give them a signal (信號) by shouting or whistling (吹口哨) three times. Any signal given three times is a call for help.

Keep up shouting or whistling always three times together. When people hear you, they will know that you are not just making noise for fun. They will let you know that they have heard your signal. They give you two shouts, two whistles, or two gun-shots (槍聲). When someone gives you a signal, it is an answer to a call for help.

If you don’t think that you will get help before night comes, try to make a little house---cover up to the holes with branches (樹枝) with lots of leaves. Make yourself a soft bed with leaves and grass.

What should you do if you get hungry or need drinking water? You would have to leave your little house to look for a river. Don’t just walk away. Pick off small branches and drop them as you walk so that you can find your way back. The most important thing to do when you are lost is—stay in one place.

科目：初中英語 來源：2013-2014學年山東威海文登市畢業(yè)班期末統(tǒng)考英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Good writing starts with good ideas. If you write about things that you care about, you will write better. If you write about things that you don’t care about, you’ll be bored and your paper will not have many good ideas.

Once you have a good idea, the next step is organization. Think through your paper before you start. Write an outline. You need to know what your main points are before you start your first paragraph (段落). Use 2-4 main points, one paragraph each.

In your central paragraphs, be concise (簡短的) and specific （具體的）. Give examples with details（細節(jié)）, not just general ideas. If you can say the same thing with fewer words, do it! Don’t use big words.

When you finish writing, look at your outline again. Did you really follow it or did it change as you wrote? Many times you find different ideas as you write. Look at your central paragraphs. What are their main ideas now? Are these ideas in the introduction? I often write the introduction again to fit the paper after I finish writing.

1. What is the 1st step for a good writing?

A. Think through your paper before you start. 

B. Write a good 1st paragraph.

C. Have a good idea.

2. What is the 2nd step?

科目：初中英語 來源：2013屆浙江杭州黨灣鎮(zhèn)初級中學初二教學質(zhì)量檢測英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Before you can start speaking and writing in English, your brain must get enough correct English sentences. This is obvious（顯而易見的）.

There are two ways to get correct English sentences: listening and reading. Both are good, but reading is much easier than listening. With the help of a good dictionary, you will be able to understand English texts much more easily than movies. If you just read one book in English, you will see that your English has become much better. English phrases will just come to you without thinking when you are writing or speaking.

This is true for hundreds of words and grammar structures（結(jié)構）. If you read in English, you can forget about grammar rules. Throw away your grammar book! You needn’t know the rules for the present perfect tense(現(xiàn)在完成時). Instead, read a few books in English, and soon you will feel that “I have seen Paul yesterday” is wrong. The only difference between you and native speakers is that they have heard and read more English sentences than you have.

1.From the first paragraph, we know that ________.

A．English is difficult to learn

B．if you have seen an English sentence, you can speak English

C．before you use English, you must know some English

D．everyone is a born English speaker

2.What is the best way to get correct English sentences according to the passage?

A．Speaking.

B．Writing.

C．Thinking.

D．Reading and listening.

3.In the writer’s opinion, we can grasp English grammar rules _______.

A．by reading English books

B．by reading grammar books

C．by writing and speaking

D．by learning grammar rules

4.The only difference between you and native speakers is that native speakers _______.

A．have parents as their English teachers

B．a(chǎn)re born to know grammar rules and phrases

C．read and hear more English than you

D．have a gift in learning English

5.What’s the main idea of the passage?

A．It is important for us to know English words.

B．Reading is important for us to learn English.

C．English grammar is not so important.
