【題目】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 Norwegian(挪威語) in just one week.

How much time did you learn each day?

I didn’t need to give my whole life over to learning Norwegian. Each Babbel lesson takes only 15 minutes, and I set myself the achievable aim 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 Norwegian within the first few days. Then I was able to personalize my learning by choosing single-topic lessons on eating, drinking, music, culture, travelling and so on. This allowed me to quickly enlarge(擴(kuò)大) my vocabulary!

This way of learning kept me highly active, and made sure I wasn’t bored to tears(眼淚) with grammar practice that we all remember from school!

“After 7 days I was able to introduce myself in Norwegian, talk about my hobbies and interests, and most importantly, communicating with a native(本國的) Norwegian speaker in a real conversation 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 Portuguese(葡萄牙語) 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 conversational.

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

A. speak with nativesB. learn foreign languages

C. do international businessD. 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】The example of David is used in the passage to show that _______.

A. hard work matters a lotB. Babbel app sells well

C. Norwegian is easy to learnD. Babbel app really helps

【答案】

【1】B

【2】D

【3】D

閱讀理解是最能體現(xiàn)學(xué)生英語能力的題型，分值較高，如何通過解題方法的掌握來提升自己解答閱讀理解題的技巧是學(xué)生最關(guān)心的問題。初中閱讀理解一般考查學(xué)生的細(xì)節(jié)理解能力，主旨理解能力和推理判斷能力。做閱讀理解題，首先要準(zhǔn)確理解題意，然后根據(jù)題意根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容做出正確的答案。（1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解能力，此類型題較簡單，準(zhǔn)確理解題意后，直接到文中找出答案。（2）考查猜詞能力。做這種題型時(shí)，要根據(jù)上下文意思準(zhǔn)確猜出詞意。3）考查推理判斷能力，此類題型較難，準(zhǔn)確理解題意后，在文中找出相關(guān)的內(nèi)容做出合理的推斷。（4）考查主旨理解題。此類題型需通讀全文，整體把握，根據(jù)文本主要內(nèi)容選擇合適的選項(xiàng)。

This means that it's common to see many people cycling to and from work, and some employee even provide workplace showers and lockers (儲物柜) for their workers. More importantly, a cycle-friendly boss may let you off for being late if you rode a bike to work.

Not only is it great for the environment and our body, cycling is also good for the mind. According to National Geographic Magazine, "Bike riding can improve people's happiness."
