They tell their readers at once what happened, where, when and how it happened and what was the result how many people were killed, what damage was done, which famous man married which woman , who did very well in the match and so on.

七、词语填空（共10小题，满分10分）

用方框中所给单词的适当形式填空，使短文通顺正确连贯（每个单词限用一次）

other, take , see , look , put ,convenient , dictionary , read , some , useful Limit Your Dictionary Use!

When you read in a foreign language, the first thing you need to do is 61 your dictionary in an inconvenient place. Now you are probably thinking, “Doesn’t she mean a convenient place?” And the answer to that is, “No, I don’t, I mean a(n) 62 place.” The biggest mistake most people make when they are leaning to read in 63 language is that they depend too much on their 64 . Try to read for general meaning, and don’t worry about the words you don’t know. If you come across a new word, try to keep 65 ; often you can guess the meaning of the word from the contest. 66 a look, for example, at the following two sentences The movie was ijjish. I laugh really hard.

Did you want to get your dictionary when you 67 the word “ijjish”? If you 68 “ijjish” up in the dictionary, you would be disappointed, because you cannot find “ijjish” in 69 dictionary. If, however, you continued reading, the next sentence made the meaning clear for you. Limiting your dictionary 70 will help you a lot in your language learning. 八、单词拼写（共10小题，满分10分）
