Jessica Westervelt,a Spanish teacher at Bethlehem High School in New York,created an activity called “House Hunters”,which was inspired by the popular television show “House Hunters International”,for her Spanish class about four years ago.

Similar to the show,students work in groups,pretending to be real house agents,and look for three houses in Spanish-speaking countries.She uses the activity to teach vocabulary related to the home,chores,travel and vacation.She created the exercise because she wanted to incorporate her students’ interests into the curriculum.At the time,a group of her students were big fans of the show.

The students look for a house for Westervelt to buy to live in,or rent for vacation.She tells them what she is looking for in a home and gives them a budget.Students work in groups of three,and each student is responsible for finding one house in a Spanish-speaking country that fits the requirements.

The groups usually make a brochure describing the houses they find.Each group presents their findings to the class,while the other students take notes.The entire activity is done in Spanish,so students get to practice their writing,listening and conversation skills.They also get some cultural education when researching homes in Spanish-speaking countries.Westervelt says that students planning to take the class look forward to her project.

A few years ago, I took a sightseeing trip to Washington D.C. I saw many of our

nation’s treasures, and I also saw a lot of unfortunate people like beggars and homeless folks(人們)in the streets.

Standing outside the Ronald Reagan Center, I heard a voice say,“Can you help me?”When I turned around, I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended(伸出). In a natural reaction, I reached into my pocket, pulled out all of my loose change and placed it in her hand. I didn’t even look at her. I was annoyed(生氣) at being bothered(煩) by a beggar.

But the blind woman smiled and said, “I don’t want your money. I just need help finding the post office.”

Immediately, I realized what I had done. I acted with prejudice(偏見(jiàn))—I judged another person simply for what I thought she was.

The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant. I left Honduras and arrived in America at the age of 15. Through the years, I have been a dishwasher, cashier, mechanic and pizza delivery driver among many other jobs, and finally I became a network engineer.

In my own life, I have experienced many open acts of prejudice. I remember a time, at age 17— I was a busboy, and I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well at school, he would end up like me.

But now, living in my American middle-class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to forget who I am and where I have been, and to lose sight of where I want to be going. That blind woman on the street of Washington D.C. cured(治愈) me of my blindness. She reminded me to always keep my eyes and heart open.

1.When the author came to America at first ______.

A. he usually did some work with a little payment.

B. he used to beg for some money on the street.

C. he lived a comfortable life as a network engineer.

D. he was respected by others all the time.

2.According to the passage, what did the author regret(后悔)?

A. That he gave all his change to the blind woman.

B. The way he treated the blind woman.

C. That he came to Washington

D. C. for a visit.

3.We can infer all of the following statements from the passage EXCEPT ____.

A. He disliked being bothered by beggars.

B. He was delighted to give away his money to beggars.

C. He once suffered a lot.

D. The blind woman didn’t beg for money at that time.

4.What does the author want to tell us through this story?

A. Don’t dream up ways to get what you want.

B. Money is the root of all evils.

C. An easy life makes a person forgetful.

D. Be good to others all the time.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。

Speaking is not equal to learning.

You don't need to study grammar too much. The first suggestion may sound strange to many students who begin to learn English, but it is exactly important. 1. However, if you want to speak fluently, you should try to speak English without thinking too much of grammar. Studying grammar will only slow you down and make you hesitate. You will think about the grammar rules instead of naturally saying a sentence like a native.

You can't translate every word. When you try to speak English, you do not need to translate every word from your mother tongue. 2. Another problem you may meet is that you will misuse grammar rules that you have learned in your mother language.

3.The reason why many people can learn well is that they often practice. But in order to speak English fluently, you need to practice speaking. When you study, don't just listen.

Speak out loud the material you are listening to and practice what you hear. Practice speaking

out loud until your mouth and brain can do it without any effort. 4.

You should study correct material. A phrase you often hear is, "Practice makes perfect." This is not completely true. Practice only makes what you are practicing permanent. If you practice the incorrect sentence, you will have perfected saying the sentence incorrectly.5.

A. You should try to speak fluently.

B. You need to practice speaking what you hear.

C. By doing so, you will be able to speak English fluently.

D. If you want to pass examinations, you should study grammar well.

E. If you listen more, you can speak correctly and fluently sooner or later.

F. Therefore, it is important that you study material that is commonly used by most people.

G. The order of words is probably completely different and you may be both slow and incorrect by doing this.
