I cant hear you. Please speak louder.

我聽不見，請說大聲些。

loudly只用作副詞（與用作副詞的loud同義）。

Dont talk so loudly （loud）. 別這么大聲講話。

注意：loudly比用作副詞的loud使用范圍更廣，它除與 speak，talk，laugh等動詞連用外，還可與其他表示聲響的動詞連用，且可以放在這些動詞之前或之后。

He fell asleep when there was a loud knock at the door.

他剛睡著，這時有人大聲敲門。

注意：go/get to sleep和fall asleep意思接近，都指“入睡，睡著”。 go/get to sleep強調(diào)進入睡眠狀態(tài)，常用于否定句、疑問句、條件句中。go to bed著重指上床睡覺的動作，無“睡著”之意。go to bed在前，然后才go/get to sleep或fall asleep。

12. as a result （of ） （由于……的）結(jié)果

As a result， he had to leave.

結(jié)果，他只得離開。

English Is So Hard

Johnny asked Dotty how her first day in her Duarte ESL class was. She told him it was terrible. She understood little of what the Level 4 teacher said， because he spoke too fast for her. She had struggled through a Level 3 class at a Monrovia school.

When the teacher asked if there were any questions， she told him that she didnt understand most of what he had said. He told her not to worry； she could take the class again if she failed it the first time. She didnt want to fail it the first time， however， or any time.

The teacher gave them homework on the first day， of course. They were supposed to write a 300-word essay supporting gun control. Of course， Dotty said， she could write that essay in her native language. But there was no way she could write it in English. She showed Johnny the textbook. The print was so tiny that trying to read just a few pages gave her a headache. On top of that was all the new vocabulary on each page.

“Im going to drop the class，” she said. She wanted to cry. When was she ever going to learn this language？

1. How was Dottys first day in Duarte ESL？ （Within 3 words）

閱讀理解

Anyone who has ever lost keys or money will have wished for a simple but effective way to make sure it never happens again. A US company is trying to help.

Using a tiny microchip which is implanted （植入） into the arm， they have come up with a replacement for cash or credit cards that cannot be left at home or dropped on the bus.

The Verichip is about the size of a grain of rice and works using radio frequency identification technology. At a shop， a radio frequency “reader” would send a signal and the chip in your arm would respond with your own identity number. That would give the “reader” your financial information， and money could be taken directly from your accounts and you wouldnt even have to reach for your wallet.

The company also hopes to include other information on the chip， such as medical records， building security codes （社保密碼） and passwords， making life even easier.

But not everyone is happy with the developments. Some say that a lot can go wrong with the chip. A clever thief could build a fake reader that would steal your information without you knowing. So your money could still be stolen. Privacy is a big problem， too. Stores， or even the government， only need to track the chip to find out what you buy， how much you spend and where you go.

And if you wanted to get rid of your chip，you would need an operation to remove it.

1. Whats Verichip？

A. An identity number. B. A security code.

C. A tiny microchip. D. A radio “reader”.

2. What does the Paragraph 3 mainly talk about？

A. How Verichip works.

B. The importance of Verichip.

C. The development of Verichip.

D. How Verichip helps take money from the accounts.

3. Which is true about Verichip？

A. Your information on it will be safe.

B. Medical records have already been included.

C. You can easily reach for your wallet when using it.

D. An operation has to be performed to remove it.

4. What can be inferred from the text about Verichip？

A. The idea of it is welcomed.

B. Its company has financial problems.

C. It needs improving to be widely accepted.

D. Its users have the experience of losing keys or money.

The State Schools and Private Schools in the UK

英國的公立學(xué)校與私立學(xué)校

For many parents， one of the most important things is to ensure their children have a good education.

Britains education system is well known around the world. Thousands of students come from overseas to be educated in the UK in many different places including private schools， tutorial colleges， and international schools.

Private schools like Harrow and Eton are expensive to get into but what else makes them different from state schools？

There are two differences between a private school and a state school. The most important one is that parents have to pay fees to go to a private school. Whereas a state school is free of charge.

But the other difference is that private schools in this country are not obliged to follow the national state governed curriculum， or even to take the state examinations. So they have a much greater degree of freedom.

The pupils at private schools are treated just like pupils in every other school including the state schools in England. They are not pampered； very far from it， they are expected to behave well， to work hard； they are punished if they dont.

對許多家長而言，最重要的事情之一是確保他們的孩子有一個良好的教育。

英國教育體系的知名度是眾所周知的。每年數(shù)千名來自海外的學(xué)子在英國不同的地方接受教育，包括私立學(xué)校、補習(xí)學(xué)院、國際學(xué)校。

像哈羅和伊頓這樣的私立學(xué)校需要支付昂貴的學(xué)費才能進入。但什么使私立學(xué)校與公立學(xué)校不同呢？

英國的公立學(xué)校和私立學(xué)校之間主要有兩個不同點。首先，父母必須為孩子支付學(xué)費才能進入私立學(xué)校，而公立學(xué)校是免費的。

另一個不同是，私立學(xué)校沒有義務(wù)遵循國家的教學(xué)課程，甚至不采用國家考試，因此，學(xué)校有更大的自由度。

英國私立學(xué)校的學(xué)生跟公立學(xué)校學(xué)生都受到同等對待。他們不會享受任何寵愛，甚至人們期望他們表現(xiàn)得更好，更加努力。如果沒有達到要求，他們會被懲罰。

（PS：美式英語中“Public school”就是所謂的“公立學(xué)?！?，經(jīng)費絕大部分由政府補助。私立學(xué)校稱為“Private school”。）
