Today was a big day for my eldest son, Kevin. He had his first big boy haircut. Before today, we have always stood by his side, told the hairdresser what to do and watched over the whole thing. We’ve been working on the rewards (獎賞) of responsibility with my son for quite some time. Today, he got one of those rewards by having his own haircut.
When they arrived at the shop, his father showed him a book with lots of styles of haircuts for boys. After he made his choice, he waited patiently for his turn. My husband decided he would get his own hair cut at the same time.
When their names were called, Kevin showed the hairdresser the picture of his chosen haircut, which, thankfully, was not a strange haircut. The hairdresser looked to my husband for approval (批準) and he told her his son was in charge.
During his haircut, Kevin talked happily with the hairdresser. My husband, who was getting his haircut in the next chair, kept silent. When all was said and done, Kevin looked quite handsome.
When it was time to pay, he reached into his pocket and took out the cash my husband gave him. He handed it to her and said, “Thanks, it’s all yours.” I guess that’s the six-year-old equivalent (對應的語句) of “keep the change.”
I have to admit I was a little nervous about the whole thing before, but I’m a believer now. My son is growing up and ready for new big boy experiences.
1.When Kevin got his haircut, the author used to .
A.do her own thing B.leave him alone
C.talk happily with her son D.manage the whole thing
2.What did the author’s husband do at the hairdresser’s?

C.Had his own haircut silently D.Stood together with the author.
3.What was the hair style that Kevin chose like?
A.It was very strange. B.It suited him well.
C.It was very bad. D.It was more like a girl’s

“I don’t speak English”-these are the first words I learned when I came to America. Soon I was able to pronounce the four words clearly, and said them whenever an American tried to talk to me. This answer was very effective(有效的)at ending our conversation and saving me from another uncomfortable situation, or I would have to communicate in a language that I was not familiar with.
Before coming to the States, I thought I knew English pretty well. But the truth is that the grammar and vocabulary-based English that is taught in schools overseas(海外的)is not the English people speak in America.
But fear not! Once you are in America, you can immediately begin to bridge the gap(彌補差距)between the learned English that you already know, and the spoken English that is all around you. To do this, first of all, it is important not to fear when you realize that you may not be as prepared for daily communication as you thought. For me, as soon as I stopped worrying about my accent and started speaking, I made rapid progress. Often the people didn’t notice my mistakes because they were so glad to finally be able to communicate with me.
Another good idea is to listen carefully and pay attention to the way in which ideas are expressed. For example, if you are working hard and you want to stop working and rest for a little while, you can either say “I would like to stop working and rest for a while” or “I want to take a quick break from work.” The first sentence, I quickly learned, sounds dry and too formal for any kind of communication, while the second is an idiom(成語)that is widely used in American English conversation.
Finally, use what you already know---the vocabulary, the grammar and the spelling. Try to use these into the spoken language for more impressive and accurate(精確)speaking results.
1.What’ s the main idea of this passage?
A.You’d better say “I don’t speak English” in the USA.
B.How you can improve your spoken English in the USA.
C.Idioms are widely used to express your ideas in the USA.
D.Listening is the best way to improve your spoken English in the USA.
2.At first the writer preferred to use the sentence “I don’t speak English” to .
A.admit he is a foreigner
B.save much time for himself
C.prevent himself from being laughed at
D.avoid getting upset in communicating with others
3.What’s the problem with the English taught outside the English-speaking countries?
A.It is quite different from what the natives speak.
B.It is taught in boring and wrong grammar.
C.It has nothing to do with English.
D.It has too small a vocabulary.
4.When did the writer make rapid progress in spoken English?
A.As soon as he paid attention to the way Americans spoke.
B.The minute he found what has been learned useless.
C.The moment he got rid of the fear of speaking.
D.Immediately he arrived in the USA.
5.All the following are tips given buy the writer EXCEPT “ .”
A.speaking bravely B.listening carefully
C.using what you have learned D.making few mistakes
