Learners of English, especially self-taught learners may have trouble in understanding speeches by native speakers. The following ways might help improve their listening ability.

First of all, do things step by step. It is not good to listen to something beyond your level. Better choose a suitable course and start with the first book. Go on to the second book only after you are sure you understand the first one.

Secondly, stick to one course of study. Don’t change books often. Never let your attention be attracted by another course just because it seems to be more “fashionable”.

Thirdly, listen to the English news program over the radio from time to time. Better go through the news stories in the Chinese-language newspaper first. T hat will make it easy for you to understand the English news on the radio.

Fourthly, if you have time, listen to some interesting stories in some special English programs, such as V.O.A. or other listening materials of the same level as that of your textbook.

About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier; only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman!

There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shadows of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green －a strange world indeed.

Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”. These help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods”, but these are used for seeing when it is near dark. They show us shape but no color.

Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes prefer blue to yellow. A red light will not attract insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way hu man beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible colors around us.

5. The passage is mainly about _____________.

A. women being luckier than men

B. color and its surprising effects

C. danger caused by color blindness

D. color blindness

6. Which of the statements about the color- blind is true?

A. All of them have the same problem in recognizing color.

B. None of them can tell the difference between blue and green.

C. All of them can’t see everything in shades of green.

D. None of them can see deep red.

7. We can attract and kill mosquitoes by using a _____________.

A. red light

B. blue light

C. green light

D. yellow light

These days, most people in Britain and the US do not wear very formal(正式) clothes. But sometimes it is important to wear the right things.

Many British people don’t think about clothes very much. They just like to be co mfortable. When they go out to enjoy themselves, they can wear almost anything. At theatres, cinemas and concerts you can put on what you like from beautiful suits and dresses to jeans and sweaters. Anything goes, as long as you look clean and tidy.

But in Britain, as well as the US, men in office usually wear suits and ties, and women w ear dresses or skirts (not trousers). Doctors and business people always wear quite formal clothes. And in some hotels and restaurants men have to wear ties and women tidy dresses. In any ways, Americans are less formal than Britain people, but they are more careful with their clothes. At home, or on holiday, most Americans wear informal or sporty clothes. But when they go out in the evening, they like to look nice. In good hotels and restaurants, men have to wear jackets and ties, and women wear pretty clothes.

It is difficult to say exactly what people wear in Britain and the US, because everyone is different. If you a re not sure what to wear, watch what other people do and follow suit. You’ll feel more comfortable if you don’t look too different from others.

12. People in Britain and the US wear informal clothes when they___

A. are in offices

B. go out to enjoy themselves

D. not any clothes are all right

Failure is common in our life. No one can avoid them. When we fail in doing something, we often feel very disappointing. Sometimes failure can make us lose hearts. So no one is willing to fail. On the contrary, success can bring us sense of pride. If one enjoyed his continuous success in his career, he will have confidence to himself. Therefore, failure is the mother of success. A failure doesn't mean one can never be successfully. Those who is always afraid of failure will never succeed. In a word, as long as we can get some lessons and experience from our failure, we'll be sure to succeed.
