What is language for? Some people seem to think it's for practicing grammar rules and learning lists of words——the longer the lists, the better. That's wrong. Language is for the exchange of ideas and information. It's meaningless knowing all about a language if you can't use it freely. Many students I have met know hundreds of grammar rules, but they can't speak correctly or fluently（流利地）. They are afraid of making mistakes. One shouldn't be afraid of making mistakes when speaking a foreign language. Native speakers make mistakes and break rules, too. Bernard Shaw once wrote, "Foreigners often speak English too correctly." But the mistakes that native speakers make are different from those that Chinese students make. They're English mistakes in the English language. And if enough native speakers break a rule, it is no longer a rule. What used to be wrong becomes right. People not only make history, they make language. But a people can only make its own language. It can't make another people's language. So Chinese students of English should pay attention to grammar, but they shouldn't overdo it. They should put communication first.

1．Generally, when an American or an Englishman speaks English, he _____.

     A．never makes mistakes                   B．often makes mistakes

     C．can't avoid making mistakes              D．a(chǎn)lways makes mistakes

2．The sentence "Foreigners often speak English too correctly." means that ______.

      A．foreigners speak correct English    

B．foreigners speak incorrect English

      C．foreigners speak English according to the grammar rules

      D．foreigners never make mistakes when they speak English

3．When we speak a foreign language, we should ______.

A．speak in the Chinese way      

B．speak according to the rules

C．break the rules               

D．not be afraid of making mistakes

4．Which of the following statement is true according to the passage?

A．When there are enough Chinese people making the same mistake in English, the mistake is no longer a mistake.

B．One should not always pay too much attention to grammar when learning a foreign language.

C．It is most important to know all about a language when learning it.

D．Language is for practicing grammar rules and learning lists of words

My wife passed away seven and a half years ago, and I went through a huge depression（消沉）, the worst time in my life. I even wanted to end my life. I continued to work as a small-town doctor at my medicine clinic in Kilauea, Hawaii. My kids had gone to live on the mainland, and I was alone. On a family trip, we turned to the TV and saw the second plane crash into the World Trade Center. I said to my kids, “I’m going to Afghanistan.” International Medical Crops sent me to set up 20 clinics in some provinces where people had no health care. Eventually, the clinics were serving 27,000 patients a month. I had such a sense of accomplishment, a sense of purpose. My depression went completely away.

I go wherever disasters strike: Indonesia after the tsunami, Pakistan after the earthquake. I was just in Kenya. After their presidential election, at least a thousand people were killed and hundreds of thousands were forced out. We set up mobile clinics in an area with 19,000 refugees（難民）. Measles broke out, one of the biggest killers of kids in refugee camps, and it spread like wildfire. Water and medical equipment were also problems.

When my wife passed away, I thought my life was done. But really, it was just getting started. At the end of her life, my wife fell into a coma（昏迷） . I held her head in my hands and told her of all the places we would visit, the exciting adventures we would have. I think about this moment many times during my “adventures”. I didn’t know then how prophetic（先知的）those words would be. She is with me still. 

1．The first country where the author provide people with medical care is              .

     A．Indonesia           B． Pakistan          C．Kenya               D．Afghanistan

2．The underlined word “Measles” in Paragraph 2 probably refers to                 .

    A．a(chǎn) kind of fire                                   B．a(chǎn) kind of polluted water 

    C．a(chǎn) kind of medicine                             D．a(chǎn) kind of disease

3．The author and his wife            ．

  A．experienced a lot of exciting adventures

  B．loved each other very much

C．lived on the mainland 

    D．would travel to many places together

What happens when human beings are not allowed to sleep for long periods of time? To answer this question, a New Yorker, Peter Tripp, offered to stay awake 200 hours. During that time Tripp was observed by a group of doctors, who reported on his progress.

       After three days of staying awake, he began to show signs of his mental breakdown. He laughed at things that were not funny, and wept（哭泣） at things that were not sad. Complaining of pressure caused by a hat on his head, he tried repeatedly to take it off. Tripp, of course, was not wearing a hat.

On the fifth day he cried out that a doctor's jacket looked like crawling worms. Then he imagined he was in another city; he tried to run away from the building, insisting it was on fire; and he thought the 200-hour mark had been passed but that the doctors were still trying to keep the experiment going. After 200 hours without sleep, Tripp, said the doctors, was “suffering from mental illness.” He was nearly mad.

Hardly able to stand, Tripp was helped across the street to a room in a hotel. There, after being awake for 201 hours and thirteen minutes, he fell asleep. The doctors predicted（預(yù)言） he would sleep for twenty or thirty hours.  “Peter Tripp will sleep the deepest sleep in history”, said the doctors. Tripp slept all right----for nine hours and eleven minutes. When he awoke, his first words were: “I feel fine.” After a medical check, his greatly surprised watchers said that he was sound and well.

1．The best title for this passage is _______.

2．What is the main idea of the passage?

D．The doctors predicted Tripp would sleep for twenty or thirty hours.

3．Tripp started to show signs of his mental breakdown ______.              

A．when his third day of staying awake came to an end

B．when he was not allowed to sleep for 5 days

C．a(chǎn)t the end of the experiment

D．a(chǎn)fter 201 hours and 13 minutes without sleep

4．The doctors were greatly surprised because Tripp ______.    

    A．could not fall asleep                       B．slept the deepest in history

    C．slept for thirty hours                      D．slept for a relatively short time

       Richard’s father died when he was five. Later on he lost his mother. An old woman felt sorry for the poor boy and often helped him. Of course he had no money to go to school. He had to work for a rich farmer. The man paid him nothing except food and clothes.   1    He found some old books near the school and taught himself to read and write.

            2      It connected the village and the town. One morning people found there was a big stone on it. It stopped them from going to town. They had to move it away, or they had to cross the mountain if they had something to do in the town. But the stone weighed thirty tons at least and the strongest young men couldn’t do that.     3    

       Richard looked at it carefully for a while and said, “I have a way to move it away.” But few men believed him.     4      Night fell and people went home. Only the boy stayed there.

       To their surprise, the villagers found the stone was gone the next morning. They didn’t know which spirit had moved it away.      5    

       “How could he? ”The rich farmer called out. “He’s only fifteen! He couldn’t move it at all!”

“He dug a big hole beside the stone”, said the old woman, “And then he could easily pull it into the hole!”
