科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2012-2013學(xué)年重慶市三峽名校聯(lián)盟高一下學(xué)期期中考試英語(yǔ)試卷（帶解析） 題型：閱讀理解

One of the speaking rules you need to know might sound strange to most ESL (English as a second language) students, but it is one of the most important rules. If you want to pass examinations, then study grammar. However, if you want to become fluent in English, then you should try to learn English without studying the grammar.
Studying grammar will only slow you down and confuse you. You will think about the rules when creating sentences instead of naturally saying a sentence like a native. Remember that only a small part of English speakers know more than 20% of all the grammar rules. Many ESL students know more grammar than native speakers. I can confidently say this with experience. I am a native English speaker, majored in English Literature, and have been teaching English for more than 10 years. However, many of my students know more details about English grammar than I do. When they sometimes ask me about grammar, I can easily look up the definition(定義) and apply it, but I can’t tell them the answer off the top of my head.
I often ask my native English friends some grammar questions, and only a few of them know the correct answer. However, they are fluent in English and can read, speak, listen, and communicate effectively.
Do you want to be able to recite the definition of a causative verb, or do you want to be able to speak English fluently?
【小題1】According to the author, what opinion do most ESL students hold?

A．Grammar matters a lot only in speaking.
B．Grammar doesn’t matter much in speaking.
C．Grammar is very important in English learning.
D．Grammar is not important in English learning.
【小題2】What is the author?
A．An ESL student.B．A teacher teaching English natives.
C．A native English student.D．A native English teacher.
【小題3】The underlined part “off the top of my head” means         .
A．on purposeB．without consideration
C．a(chǎn)fter thinkingD．with difficulty
【小題4】Which of the following titles best suits the text?
A．Fluency or Grammar? B．Grammar Counts!
C．Exams or No Exams? D．No More Grammar!

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2012-2013學(xué)年云南昆明官渡第二中學(xué)高一上第二次階段性檢測(cè)英語(yǔ)卷（帶解析） 題型：閱讀理解

If you want to become a fluent English speaker you should take some advice. There are four skills in learning English. They are reading, listening, speaking, and writing. The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills, you should first master the skills of reading and listening.
Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. It means that you must think about the meaning of the sentence, the meaning of the unfamiliar words, etc. There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammars or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you come across, but the fact that you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example, in other passages or books, is enough. It would be better to prepare yourself a notebook so you can write down the important words or sentences in it.
As for listening, there are two choices: besides reading, you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. You can only pay attention to your reading and become skillful at your reading, then you can catch up on your listening. Since you have lots of inputs in your mind, you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. This never means that you should not practice listening. For listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. Their languages are easy. Or if you are good at listening you can listen to VOA or BBC programs every day. Again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably taking some notes.
If you follow these pieces of advice, your speaking and writing will improve quickly, and you can be a fluent English speaker one day.
【小題1】According to the writer, which should you improve first among the four skills?

A．Reading and listening.B．Reading and writing.
C．Writing and speaking.D．Speaking and listening.
【小題2】 To improve your reading, when you read you should ______.
A．look up all the new words in the dictionary
B．think about what you are reading actively
C．spend more time studying grammars
D．copy as many words and sentences as possible
【小題3】The underlined phrase “come across” in Paragraph 2 can probably be replaced by “______”.
A．meet B．discoverC．hear D．look for
【小題4】The passage is mainly about how to ______.
A．choose suitable listening materials
B．deal with new words in reading
C．improve your reading ability as quickly as possible
D．become fluent in speaking and writing English
