It might sound strange to you but these are some impomant ruler If you want to pass examinations, then study grammar. However, if you want b become fluent in English, try to learn English without sildying too much gramrnar because that will only slow you down and confuse you. You will think about the rules when creating sentences instead of speaking naturally like a native speaker. Some native speakers do not know so many grammar rules as non-native students do.
t,
trc eng es
Everyone can speak at least one language whether they are intelligent, or lack some brain power. This could be achieved by being surrounded by that language at all times. You may notice that there are also some people who study abroad and learn very little. That is because they go to an English speaking school, but find friends from their own country and don't practice English. Some others can speak English well because they live in an English speaking environment.
Therefore, why don't you surround yourself with English? Make rules with some friends that you will only speak English when meeting up for a coffee, for example. You can also carry around an iPod and listen to English as much as possible. 19. You don't need to study too rnuch grammar to be fluent in English.

The ao dai, the traditional dress of Vietnamese women, has a long history. In the early 17th century, Vietnamese clothing designers made changes to the design of the traditional Chinese costume, creating the primitive forms of the present ao dai. This creativity showed Vietnam's strong sense of independence. The ao dai, with different designs and materials, was traditionally worn by both men and women. These days, although many vietnamese women often prefer to choose western clothes, which becomes rnore convenient, the ao dai has been there to stay. Therefore, Vietnamese women go on wearing this unique dress, which is both traditional and fashionable and which conveys our rich culture to the world. 19.

The ao dai, the traditional dress of Vietnamese women, has a long history. In the early 17th century, Vietnamese clothing designers made changes to the design of the traditional Chinese costume, creating the primitive forms of the present ao daf. This creativity showed Vietnam's sfrong sense of independence. The ao dai, with different designs and materials, was traditionally worn by both men and women Over the next several years, despite the popularity of western clothing which becomes more convenient nowadays, the ao dai has been there to stay. Therefore, Vietnamese women get to go on
wearing this unique dress, which is both traditional and fashionable and which conveys our rich culture to the world. 13. The ao dai had
its start at the beginning of the seventeenth century.

Unless we do research on solar enerry, wind po*"., tidal powet hydroelectric plants ... our fossil fuels will run out and we'Itr all freeze or starve to death.

In, the early dap of the United States, postal chargm were paid by the recipient and drarges varied with the distance carried. In 1825, the United States Congress permitted Ucat postnasters O give letters to mail carriers for home delivery but these caniers received no govemment salary and their entire compensation depended on what they were paid by the recipients of individual letterc. In 1847 the United States Post Office Deparhrent adopted the idea of a postage stamp, which of course simplified the payrnent for postal service but caused grumbling by those wfro aU not lil1g b prepay. Besides, the stamp covered only delivery to the post office and did not indude carrying it a private address. In Philadelphia, for example, With a population of 150,00O people s6ll had b go to the post office to get their mail. The confusion and mngestion of individual citizens tmking fur their letters was itself enough to discourage use of the mail. It is no wonder tha! during tre years of these cumbersome arrbngements, private letter-carrying and express businesses Uetetopqd. Although their activities were only semilegal, they thrived, and actually advertised that between Bosbn and Philadelphia they were a half day speedier than the govemment mail. The govemment postal service lost volurne to private competition and was not able to handle efficiendy even the business it
b
v,r
had.
:
Finally, in 1863, Gongress provided that the mail carriers who delivered the mail from the post offices to privaE addresses should reeive a govemment salary and that there should be no exta charge for that delivery. But this delivery service was at first conftned to cities, and free home delivery became a mark of urbanism. As late as 1887, a town had to have 10,000 people to be eligible for free home delivery. In 1890, of the 75 million people in the United States, fewer than ZO milt*cn had mail delivered free to their doors. The rest, nearly three-quarters of the population, still received no mail unless they went to their post office. What does the passage mainly discuss? A. The increased use of private mail services B. The development of a government.postal system C. A comparison of urban and rural D. The history of postage stamps. It can be infened from the first paragraph that in the USA in the early 19s entury A. the rccipient had to pay to rcceive the B. the recipient paid the same for all kinds of letters C. postage stamps for leters came into use D. the mail carriers earned a lot of money from the government Which of the following was seen as a disadvantage of the posbge stamp?

IV, READ THE PASSAGE AND CHOOSE THE BEST ANSWERS TO THE QUESTTONS THAT FOTLOW. (s PTS) Television's contribution to family life in the United States has been an equivocal one. For while it has, indeed, kept the members of the family from dispersing it has not served to bring them together. By dominating the time families spend together, fr destroys ihe special quality ihrt dirtingulshes one family from another, a quality that depends to a great extent on what a family does, what special rituals, games, recurrent jokes, familiar songs, and shared activities it accumulates. "Like the sorcerer of old,"writes Urie Bronfenbrenner, "the television set casts its magic spell, fi*EFA*ffi speech and action, turning the living into siIent statues so long as the enchantment lasts. The primary danger of the television screen lies not so much in the behavior it produces although there is danger there as in the behavior it prevents : the talks, games, the family festir4ties, and arguments ihrough which irruch of the chiiri's iearning takes

III. READING A, READ THE PASSAGE AND CHOOSE THE BEST ANSWERS TO THE QUESTTONS. 00 PrS) When fules Verne wrote fourney to the Center of the Earth in l8,64,there
were many conflicting theories about the nature of the Earth's interior. Some geologists thought that it contained a highly compressed ball of incandescent gas, while others suspected that it consisted of separate shells, each made of a different material. Today, well over a century later, there is still little direct evidence of what lies beneath our feet. Most of our knowledge of the Earth's interior comes not from mines or boreholes, but from the study of seismic waves - powerful pulses of energy released by earthquakes. The way that seismic waves travel shows that the Earth's interior is far from uniforrn. The continents and the seabed are formed by the crust - a thin sphere of relatively light, solid rock. Beneath the crust lies the mantle, a very different layer that extends approximately halfwav to the Earth's center.

There the rock is the subiect of a battle between increasing heat and grow-

ing pressure.
In its high levels, the mantle is relatively cool; at greater depths, high temperatures make the rock behave more like a liquid than _a solid. Deeper still, the pressure is even more intense, preventing the rock from melting in spite of a higher temPerature, _

Fromthis and other evidence, ofogirir conclude that the outer core is probably liquid, with a solid center. It is almost certainly made of iron, mixed with smaller amounts of other elements such as nickel. The conditions in the Earth's core make it a far more alien world than pressure and has a space. Its solid iron heart is subjected to unimaginable ti-p.pture of about 9,0000F, Although scientists can not speculate about its nature, humans nor machines will ever be able to visit it' 1.

A good many technical people become irate when you call a computer a giant brain. They insist that a computer does only what thinking humans have planned to have it do.
Yet one authority states categorically, "A machine can handle information; it can calculate, conclude, and choose ; it can perform reasonable operations with information. A machine, therefore, can think.,, Famed mathematician Norbert Wiener of MIT, envisions a machine that can learn and will "in no way be obliged to make such decisions as we should have made, or willbe acceptable to us."

There is a popular anecdote about a computer programmer who, just for a lark, spent days setting up the machine to destroy itself, then watched delightedly as the computer dutifully proceeded to commit suicide.

The world's [7J garbologist, Professor William Rathje, is also an archeologist.

B. READ TIIE PASSAGE AND CIIOOSE THE BEST AI\ISWERS TO :is! TrrE QUESTTONS (1.0 PT) A rather surprising geographical feature of Antarctica is that'a huge freshwater lake, one of the world's largest and deepest, lies hidden there under four kilometers of ice. Now known as Lake Vostok, this huge body of water is located under the ice block that comprises Antarctica. The lake is able to exist in its unfrozen state beneath this block of ice because its waters
are warmed by geothermal heat from the earth's core. The thick glacier above Lake Vostok actually insulates it from the frigid temperatures (the
lowest ever recorded on earthJ on the surface. The lake was first discovered in the 1970s while a research tearn was conductinganaerial su-rvey of the area. Rh-dio Waves fiom-the sfirvey equipment penetrated the ice and revealed a body of water of indeterminate size. It *"r nbt until much more recently that data collected by satellite made scientists aware of the tremendous size of the lake; the satellite-borne radar detected an exffemely flat region where the ice remains level because it is floating on the water of the lake. The discovery of such a huge freshwater lake trapped under Antarctica is of interest to the scientific community because of the potential that the lake contains ancient microbes that have survived for thousands upon thou--

The downside of the-discovery, however,lies in the difficuky Lf conducti"gl.search on the lake in such a harsh climate and in the piobterns associated with obtaining uncontaminated samples from the lake without actually exposing the lake to contamination.
