Hi, I’m John Donald, on the Voice of America.

We are checking out the top three songs in the Billboard chart（美國單曲排行榜）ending this week.

The third place goes to One Republic with “Counting Stars”. This song has already hit number one in the United Kingdom. But how high has One Republic risen in its US homeland? Well, they haven’t had a US number one single yet. Back in 2007, their first single “Apologize” reached the second place, while hitting number one in more than a dozen countries.

The second place comes Lorde with another former（以前的）title-holder（冠軍保持者）, “Royals”.

Up at number one is a famous partner Eminem and Rihanna with “The Monster”. How many times have they worked together? If you said twice, you’re wrong. This is their fourth. You probably remember their huge 2010 hit “Love The Way You Lie” and they also sang together “Love The Way You Lie (Part II)”. Finally, the pair worked together on “Numb”, which appears on Rihanna’s latest album（唱片）Unapologetic.

That’s it for now, but let’s meet again next week for a new chart.

1.Which song once reached No. 1 in the US?

A. Royals B. Counting Stars C. Apologize D. Numb

2.Which were the songs Eminem and Rihanna sang together?

A. Numb, Unapolotetic and Love The Way You Lie

B. Numb, Apologize and Love The Way You Lie(Part II)

C. Love The Way You Lie, One Republic and Unapologetic

D. Love The Way You Lie, Numb and Love The Way You Lie(Part II)

3.What is the passage mainly about?

A. New songs introduction.

B. Some singers’ recent situation.

C. Some singers’ private lives.

D. The three most popular songs in the Billboard chart this week.

科目：初中英語 來源：江蘇省宜興市張渚徐舍教學(xué)聯(lián)盟2018-2019學(xué)年八年級下學(xué)期期中考試英語試卷 題型：閱讀單選

What would you say when we told you that you could learn to speak a new language in only 7 days? Pretty unbelievable, right? But how could it be? To find out, we spoke to David－one of our brave Babbel learners－to see how the Babbel app successfully got him speaking French in just one week.

How much time did you learn each day?

I didn’t need to give my whole life over to learning French. Each Babbel lesson takes only 15 minutes, and I give myself the certain aim(目標(biāo)) of finishing three Babbel lessons daily. This took 45 minutes each day.

How did the Babbel app help you learn so quickly?

The Babbel app has a course plan for beginners that taught me how to make sentences in French within the first few days. Then I was able to personalize（個性化）my learning by choosing lessons on eating, drinking, music, culture, travelling and so on. This made me quickly enlarge(擴(kuò)大) my vocabulary!

This way of learning kept me really interested, and made sure I wasn’t bored with grammar practice that we all remember from school!

“After 7 days I was able to introduce myself in French, talk about my hobbies and interests, and most importantly, communicating with a native(本國的) French speaker in a real talk and I could even play a joke or two!”

Would you introduce this app to others?

Certainly! Babbel has 14 languages to choose from, so if you’re thinking about brushing up on your German for a business trip, or learning a bit of Japanese for next year’s summer vacation, you’ll be happy to hear that you only need an app, 7 days of learning to get you perfect!

1.The Babbel app is used for people to _______.

A. speak with natives B. learn foreign languages

C. do international business D. plan a vacation abroad

2.How did the Babbel app help David learn quickly?

A. It took him little time every day.

B. It provided him with 14 languages.

C. It gave him daily grammar practice.

D. It offered lessons according to his needs.

3.What’s the meaning of brushing up on?

A. 復(fù)習(xí) B. 升起 C. 刷子 D. 繼續(xù)

4.The example of David is used in the passage to show that _______.

A. hard work is really important B. Babbel app sells well

C. French is easy to learn D. Babbel app really helps
