    There is no doubt about it. The best way to learn new words is to do it unconsciously. I don’t mean while you’re unconscious. I mean while you are unconscious of the fact that it is sinking in.

    That is how I learnt the 30,000 words in my vocabulary by living in an English-speaking world, mother tongue. I just pick them up. But some of them may be misunderstood. Now, to misunderstand does not mean not to understand. To misunderstand is to understand but incorrectly.

   The 5 % mislearnt of all the words we “know” will be the least frequently used words, as the more frequently used words are less likely to be mislearnt. Some of the misunderstandings may live with all our lives, without knowing that we got them wrong.

    Many English teachers think that this natural method of learning words in one’s own mother tongue can be used for a second language learning. They teach their students how to play the Guessing Game. “There is no time to look up in your dictionaries all the new words you come across,” they will say. “You have to practise guessing what the word means from the context.”

    This method of guessing in a second language learning does not work. It may succeed in many cases, but results in hundreds or thousands of wrongly-guessed meanings of words.

    And what’s more, there are more separate meanings than there are words themselves. Our learners’ dictionaries usually have many meanings. A good dictionary is what makes self-learning possible.

    Don’t guess! Look it up!

55. It is certain that the best way to learn new words is _____________.

     A. to learn them by oneself

     B. to learn by living in an English-speaking world and using them frequently

     C. to guess them from the context

     D. to get more separate meanings of each word

56. The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 2 refers to _________.

     A. the 30,000 words           B. English teachers

     C. misunderstood words      D. frequently used words

57. Which of the following is most likely NOT true?

     A. Some of the words the writer knows must have been misunderstood.

     B. Most of the 30,000 words the writer learned are frequently used ones.

      C. How many words the writer got wrong are not known.

     D. All the words the writer knows were learned by reading them.

58. It can be inferred that _________.

    A. when somebody is conscious, he or she usually can’t learn new words by heart

    B. we must use the words as often as possible in order to master them

    C. it’s the best way to learn new words that one should only guess their meanings from the context

    D. only dictionaries can help us learn language well

Sometime in the next century, the familiar early-newspaper on the front porch (門廊) will disappear. And instead of reading your newspaper, it will read to you. You’ll get up and turn on the computer newspaper just like switching on the TV. An electronic voice will distribute stories about the latest events, guided by a program that selects the type of news you want. You’ll even get to choose the kind of voice you want to hear. Want more information on this brief story? A simple touch makes the entire text appear. Save it in your own personal computer if you like. These are among the predictions from communication experts working on the newspapers of the future. Pictured as part of broader home-based media and entertainment systems, computer newspapers will unite print and broadcast reporting, and offer news and analysis with video images of news events.

    Most of the technology is available now, but convincing more people that they don’t need to read a newspaper is the next step. But resistance to computer newspapers may be stronger from within journalism. Since it is such a cultural change, it may be that the present generation of journalists and publishers will have to die off before the next generation realizes that the newspaper industry is no longer a newspaper industry. Technology is making the end of traditional newspapers unavoidable.

    Despite technological advances, it could take decades to replace newsprint with computer screens. It might take 30 to 40 years to complete the changeover because people need to buy computers and because newspapers have established financial interests in the paper industry.

66. Which of the following is NOT an advantage of computer newspapers?

A. They are cheaper than traditional newspapers.

B. They are more convenient to read.

C. You can choose the kind of voice you want to hear.

D. You can easily save information for future use.

67. Which of the following is a reason why it will take a long time to complete the changeover?

A. The technology is impossible now.

B. Computer newspapers are too expensive.

C. The popularization of computers needs a long time.

D. Traditional newspapers are easier to read.

68. It can be inferred that journalists are against computer newspapers because _______.

A. they don’t know how to use computers

B. they think computer newspapers take too much time to read

C. they think the new technology is bad

D. they have been trained to write for traditional newspapers

69. We can infer from the passage that _______.

A. all technological changes are good

B. new technologies don’t always replace old ones

C. new technologies will eventually replace old ones

D. traditional newspapers are here to stay for another century

70. What is the best title of the passage?
