Matthew Youlden speaks nine languages fluently and understands more than a dozen more. Below is his advice for those who have been struggling to merely pick up a second language. First, know why you're doing it. If you don't have a good reason to learn a language, you are less likely to stay motivated over the long-run. No matter your reason, once You've decided on a language, it’s crucial to commit: “OK, I want to learn this and I'm therefore going to do as much as I can in this language, with this language and for this language.” Second, find a partner. Matthew learned several languages together with his twin brother Michael. Matthew and Michael gained their superpowers from good- old, healthy sibling rivalry: “We were very motivated, and we still are. We push each other to really go for it. So if he realizes that I'm doing more than he is he'll get a bit jealous and then try and outdo me – and the other way round.” Having any kind of partner will push both of you to always try just a little bit harder and stay with it: “I think it’s a really great way of actually going about it. You have someone with whom you can speak, and that’s the idea behind learning a language.” Third, talk to yourself. When you have no one else to speak to, there’s nothing wrong with talking to yourself: “It might sound really weird, but actually speaking to yourself in a language is a great way to practice if you're not able to use it all the time.” This can keep new words and phrases fresh in your mind and build up your confidence for the next time you speak with someone. (Adapted from: 38. Why is it necessary to have an appropriate reason? A. To have strong motivation B. To know about the people C. To be able to use the language D.To run long in the language 39.

Talk as much as possible Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions. Weekly Reader News heads down under to find out what scientists are doing to save Australia’s koalas. Koalas are pictured everywhere in Australia - on cleaning products, on boxes of chocolate, on sports team jerseys. Yet the animals live only in pockets along the east coast. The marsupials once inhabited the entire coastline. (A marsupial is a mammal that typically carries its young in a pouch.) The koala population dropped after farmers cut down many of the forests where koalas lived and hunters killed the animals for their fur. By the early 1900s, "koalas were basically shot out of south Australia," says ecologist Bill Ellis. An ecologist is a scientist who studies the relationships among living things and their environments. I recently joined Ellis and his team in a forest on St. Bees Island, 19 miles off the northeastern coast of Australia, with eight other volunteers. The island is a natural laboratory, vielding findings that may help protect koalas elsewhere on the continent. Tree Tags The volunteers combed the island for koalas in the blue gum trees. When we found a koala, we gathered information about the trees in the area. Blue gum is a species of eucalyptus tree in which the furry leaf eaters spend most of their time. Eucalyptus trees are native to Australia, and their leaves are the main food source for koalas. Although koalas can walk on the ground, they are better suited for life in the canopy, the high cover of branches and leaves in a forest. Goat Trouble? What has Ellis’s research told him so far? The St. Bees population seems to be healthy. Yet Ellis wonders whether the koalas might be heading for hard times. The island is overrun with wild goats, and Ellis thinks the goats are eating the small blue gum trees. Without those trees, the koalas will run out of food in the future. Ellis hopes more research will help him understand how to protect the blue gums – and the koalas that depend on them. "I think that’s what everyone is trying to do – to make a difference," Ellis says. (addapted from Weekly Reader 2007) Question43: Though koalas can walk on the ground, they are better suited for life ___ . A. on islands off the northeastern coast B. in the high cover of branches and leaves in the forest C. by the coastline D. inside of the blue gum tree Question 44: Why do you think the koalas no longer inhabit the entire coastline? A. Koalas have been killed by hunters. B. Koalas have been moved to zoos for protection. C. The koalas have moved to a drier environment. D. Disease has caused the koalas to decrease in population. Question 45:How does the author organize the information in this passage? A. The author compares the arguments for and against koala rescue. B. The author provides details about the unusual nature and habitat of koalas. C. The author describes a current problem and investigates research on solutions.
5. D. The author combines fiction and nonfiction information about koalas to explain their popularity in Australian society.

Koalas have been found to be good advertisements for products. C. Koalas are dying out, so pictures are difficult to find. D. Many ecologists are trying to save the koalas. Question 47: What words could best replace the phrase “yielding findings” in the paragraph 4? A. giving away materials B. giving treasures C. making way for discoveries D. producing discoveries Question 48: How do you think goats cause trouble for the koalas? A.Koalas catch diseases from the goats. B. Goats and koalas fight over living space. C. Goats are meat eaters and koalas are food for goats. D. Goats eat the small trees that the koalas depend on for food. Question 49: Since koalas are better suited to life in the canopy than to walking on the ground, we may assume they have ___ . A. strong arms B. floppy pouches C. beautiful fur D. extra big feet Question 50.What is the main idea of this passage? A. Koalas are an Australian treasure, pictured on items in the grocery store and on sports team jerseys. B. Koalas are very unusual, carrying their young in a pouch and inhabiting only the east coast of Australia. C. Researchers and volunteers are researching koala habitats, many of which have been destroyed. D. Bill Ellis studies marsupials and their habitats in order to ensure that koalas and wild goats can live harmoniously. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions. A rhinoceros, commonly abbreviated to rhino, is one of any five extant species of odd-toed ungulates in the family Rhinocerotidae, as well as any of the numerous extinct species therein. Two of the extant species are native to Africa, and three to Southern Asia. The term "rhinoceros" is often more broadly applied to now extinct species of the superfamily Rhinocerotoidea. Members of the rhinoceros family are some of the largest remaining megafauna, with all species able to reach or exceed one tonne in weight. They have a herbivorous diet, small brains (400–600 g) for mammals of their size, one or two horns, and a thick (1.5–5 cm) protective skin formed from layers of collagen positioned in a lattice structure. They generally eat leafy material, although their ability to ferment food in their hindgut allows them to subsist on more fibrous plant matter when necessary. Unlike other perissodactyls, the two African species of rhinoceros lack teeth at the front of their mouths, relying instead on their lips to pluck food.[1] Rhinoceros are killed by some humans for their horns, which are bought and sold on the black market, and used by some cultures for ornaments or traditional medicine. East Asia, specifically Vietnam, is the largest market for rhino horns. By weight, rhino horns cost as much as gold on the black market. People grind up the horns and consume them, believing the dust has therapeutic properties.The horns are made of keratin, the same type of protein that makes up hair and fingernails. Both African species and the Sumatran rhinoceros have two horns, while the Indian and Javan rhinoceros have a single horn. The IUCN Red List identifies the Black, Javan, and Sumatran rhinoceros as critically endangered. Fires emit carbon dioxide, while forest loss leads to the reduced uptake of CO2 from the atmosphere, further fostering climate change A. A. absorbtion B. discharging C. emission D. release
