As a language learner, you are not alone. About 1.2 billion people worldwide are learning a foreign language. _______ We talked to hundreds of successful language learners. They shared with us some of their habits (习惯).

One key to long-term success is “always working for the goal (目标)”. Most successful language learners make sure to spend a few minutes practicing every day. Some learners practice their language only in class. In the long run, they can be much slower than those who practice every day. They are also more likely to “drop out”.

The second habit of successful language learners is that they don’t “binge study”. Instead, they study through a number of short-time learnings in a long period of time. Some learners only study before the test. Although they spend a long time, it doesn’t go well.

Some language learners always want to learn as much new material (材料) as they can. But it turns out that one forgets what he or she has learned little by little over time. Let’s be honest: Do you still remember all the English words and expressions you learned last year? Successful language learners go over the old material regularly (定期地). Going over in time turns your short-term memory (记忆) into long-term memory.

Are you having a hard time improving your English? Then you may try to develop these good habits. Don’t worry if it takes time. Learning a second language is a long process (过程)—it should take time!

25．Which can be put in the _______?

A．And what’s your dream?

B．So, learning English is very popular.

C．However, not all of them enjoy success.

D．Are you a language learner?

26．In Paragraph 2, the writer explains the idea of “always working for the goal” by ________.

A．comparing facts B．giving reasons

C．asking questions D．sharing experiences

27．What do the underlined words “binge study” probably mean in Chinese?

A．细水长流 B．临时突击 C．厚积薄发 D．放任自流

28．Which is TRUE according to the passage?

A．Having a goal is the key to success.

B．Talking in class is not good.

C．Learning a language little by little doesn’t go well.

D．One can learn a language well by keeping practising.

29．The passage is mainly about ________.

A．good habits of successful learners

B．advantages of going over in time

C．good language learning habits

D．skills of learning a foreign language

I haven’t been watching the news too much lately. The daily reports of death, illness, and war have been starting to wear me down. Every time I turn on the television, it seems like the whole world is ready to end.

But today, I got a reminder （提醒） that the world is okay all the same. I was taking my son to a second-hand store so he could see if he could find some used CDs for his music collection. I parked the car and we both put on our masks （口罩）. I’ve gotten so used to （习惯于）this that it feels like second nature now.

After we went inside, I walked over to the book section to see if I could find something for myself. I looked around and was both surprised and happy to see an old lady pushing a baby stroller. She told me that the baby was her great-granddaughter. I looked down at the little girl in her tiny pink dress. She was sleeping peacefully. I looked down at her innocent（天真的）face.

Suddenly, she opened her eyes and looked up at me. For a second I thought she was going to cry, but then she seemed to see me smiling behind my mask and smiled back at me. It was a warm and innocent smile that could light up the whole world.

Things like this keep warming me up. Even when things seem difficult, painful, or scary, there is always love to guide us through. Keep this in mind the next time you feel like the world is crashing down around you.

31．What does “this” in Paragraph 2 refer to（指的是）?

A．Going to a second-hand store.

B．Collecting some old CDs.

C．Parking a car in a parking lot.

D．Putting on masks when going out.

32．_______ drew the writer’s attention at the book section?

67．例文：

An Experience of Making Progress

Dear teachers and fellow students. I’m here to share one of my experiences of making progress.

When I entered high school, I found everybody else in my class was good at English except me. I had a small vocabulary and had difficulty understanding the passages. However, I didn’t lose heart. I went to my English teacher, who advised me to use a dictionary while reading and try to get what the passages conveyed to me. I worked harder, following the teacher’s advice. Gradually, I felt better while reading and began to find English interesting.

Now I have already caught up with my classmates. This experience gives me a better understanding of the saying: Nothing is too difficult to a willing heart.
