阅读理解Listening test is one of the most important parts of the English exam. Here are some tips for you.Before you start to listen, you need to relax. Don't be stressed out. And try to read the questions. These questions usually help you understand the conversation or the passage. Then listen carefully to the first sentence. It usually tells you the main idea of the passage. When you're listening, try to do some thinking and take some notes, such as:☆What happened? ☆When, where, and how? ☆What does the speaker want to tell us?In this way, you may understand the passage better.Please remember not to think about one or two words for a long time. When you hear some words you don't know, don't spend too much time on them. Very often, you'll find out what they mean later when you go on with the listening.(1)This passage mainly talks about ______.A.tips on listening B.tips on speaking C.tips on reading D.tips on writing(2)It's better for you to keep ______ when you start to have a listening test.A.excited B.relaxed C.stressed out D.worried(3)We should listen to the first sentence carefully, because it usually tells us ______.A.the answers to the questionsB.where to write the answersC.the main idea of the passageD.how much time left(剩余)for the listening test(4)When you're listening, it's important for you to ______.A.remember every wordB.take some notesC.understand all the wordsD.think about one or two words for a long time(5)The ______ usually help(s) us understand the passage better.A.questions B.first sentence C.notes D.A, B and CPeople are always afraid of making mistakes. But sometimes it's not bad to make mistakes, and here is why:At first, mistakes are a clear sign(标志)that you are trying new things. It's always good to try new things, because when you are trying new things you are growing. If you never try new things, how can you improve? How can you create? The simple answer is, "You can't." Look around you, everything you see is the result of someone trying new things.Another good thing about mistakes is this: when you are making mistakes, you are learning. Consider(考虑)this: Edison failed 10,000 times before he invented the light bulb(电灯). When he was asked how he felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadn't failed 10,000 times, but rather(相当)had learned 10,000 things that didn't work.Finally, when you make a mistake, you are that much closer to success. Why? Because you have said what you should say, and you have done what you should do. Every time you make a mistake, you are closer to success. But it doesn't mean that you can make mistakes without thinking. Instead, when you try new things you have to think them over, so that you can keep away from some unnecessary mistakes.We shouldn't spend all our time and money on the only one way, but use them correctly. Because our time and money are limited.There is an old saying, "If you are not making mistakes, you are not trying hard enough." So go bravely and make mistakes. And learn. And grow. And succeed.(1)If you are making a mistake, that means ______.A.you're careful B.you're kind C.you're growing D.you know nothing(2)If you never try new things, you can't ______.A.improve B.create C.spend D.A and B(3)What does the underlined word "limited" in the fifth paragraph means in Chinese?A.有限的 B.遥远的 C.不可估计的 D.成功的(4)When you make a mistake, you are closer to ______.A.time B.money C.success D.everythingLast spring I was walking in a park. In front of me there was a mum and her 3-year-old daughter. The little girl was holding a string(线), which had a balloon(气球)at the other end.All of a sudden, a light wind took the balloon away from the little girl. I thought she would cry.But, no! As the little girl turned to watch her balloon rise to the sky, she cheerfully shouted out "Wow!"That little girl taught me something. Later that day, I received a phone call from my friend, he told me an unexpected(不期而至的)problem. I replied with "Oh no, what should we do?" But remembering that little girl, I found myself saying, "Wow, that is interesting! How can I help you?"One thing is for sure—life is always going to make us face unexpected problems. However, how to deal with(处理)them is our choice. We can choose to be annoyed(恼怒的)or interested.No matter what the situation is, a "Wow!" will always beat "Oh, no."So the next time you meet one of life's unexpected guests, remember that little girl and make it a "Wow!" experience.

I live in a town called Perigueux, but I work in a small village in the countryside. The only way I can go to work is by train. In the UK, I went to school by train or by bus every day. So I would like to give you my comparisons(比较)of trains in France and the UK.I was surprised when I found trains run every two hours in France. This is real problem because sometimes I have to wait at the station for a long time. In the UK, trains usually leave at least every 30 minutes.Just like in the UK, the trains sometimes are delayed(推迟)in France. There is nothing else I can do in the villages, so I have to wait at the station. Once I had to wait for four hours. I even wanted to cry when the train arrived at last.Although there are some things I don't like about in France, they have some special good points. I like the uniforms that all workers wear in train stations in France. I also find the workers are very friendly and helpful. What's more, the stations are very large and tiny.(1)How did the writer go to school in the UK?(不超过10个单词)______(2)How often do the trains run in France?(不超过10个单词)______(3)What is the passage mainly about?(不超过15个单词)______.
