Ⅳ.阅读理解。(2014,黔西南)
Some people have a very poor sense of direction.Unluckily,I am one of them.I have visited a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time.
When I was a little girl,I never dared to ask strangers the way.And so I used to walk around in circles and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going to.
Now,I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions,but I often receive helpless or even wrong information.So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions.If anyone ever asks me the way somewhere,I would say,“Sorry,I am a stranger here.”
Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man.He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building.I gave him my usual reply.But just as I walked on only a few steps.I realized that he had asked the way to my office building.However,I had no time to turn back and look for him.I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I didn't want to keep him waiting.
When I just got to my office,the secretary (秘书) showed in the man who had asked me for directions.Imagine how embarrassed I was and how surprised he was when we saw each other at the first sight.

I have recently done a survey about how students learn English out of class. Almost all students read and recite English words.They think vocabulary is the most important for English learning.More than 40 students do a lot of written exercises.Some students go over their notes they have taken in class.However,only a few students spend time practicing listening and speaking.
In my opinion,listening and speaking are the secrets of becoming a good language learner.We need to do lots of listening and speaking practice,such as watching English movies and listening to English songs.Also,chatting with foreigners can be helpful.
