第四节阅读表达

阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容回答问题

How can you remember a song from your childhood to this day? Why do your teachers use

songs to teach you English? It seems there is a scientific reason for this.

Researchers are now studying the relationship between music and remembering a foreign

language. They find that remembering words in a song is the best way to remember even the most

difficult language.

"Singing could be a new way of learning a foreign language. The brain likes to remember

things when they are used in a catchy(郎朗上口的) and meaningful way," said Dr. Karen Ludke.

The findings may help those who have difficulty learning foreign languages. On his blog, Dr.

Ludke writes, "A listen—and—repeat method can support foreign language learning, and open the

door for future research in this area."

Many language teachers know the value of using music and singing. Hua Zhuying, a teacher

at a Chinese language school in Washington D.C. depends heavily on songs in teaching Chinese.

She says, "I use music all the time to teach children Chinese. For little kids usually we use English

songs but teach them the Chinese lyrics. So it's easy for them to start because they know the

music. Not only does it work, but it is fun for the kids."Sometimes, I think if I were taught English

that way, maybe I would speak English much better than now," HuaZhuying adds.

Our brain likes music, especially for remembering. So, if you're still struggling in learning a

language, why not try singing it out?

40. According to the passage, what is the best way to remember a foreign language?

第四节阅读表达阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容回答问题。（共 5小题，计 10 分）

When people think of tigers, they think: strong and dangerous. But now, the big animal is

calling for our help.

Leaders of 13 countries held a big meeting in St Petersburg, Russia from November 21 to 24.

The meeting was about tigers. The leaders talked about ways to protect the animal in their home

countries. They agreed to spend more money in protecting tigers and double the number of tigers

in the world before 2022.

The tiger is one of the world’s most endangered animals. According to the World Wildlife

Fund (WWF, 世界自然基金会), there were about 100,000 wild tigers 100 years ago. However,

because of hunting and habitat (栖息地) loss, there are only 3,200 tigers left now. And the number

is still falling.

“If nothing happens, the tiger will face disaster,” said WWF spokeswoman Marie von Zeipel.

Of the nine types of tigers that lived 100 years ago, at least three have died out. “If people leave

tigers alone and don’t kill them, then naturally the number of tigers will double in 10 years,” said

Jean-Christoph Vie, a French tiger expert.

China is one of the 13 countries where tigers live. There are about 50 wild tigers in China.

They are the Bengal tigers ( 孟加拉虎) in Tibet, Indochinese tigers ( 印度支那虎) in China’s

southwest, and Siberian tigers (东北虎) in the northeast. The South China tigers (华南虎) lived in

southeast China many years ago but disappeared in the 1970s. Many experts think they have

already died out.
