Four Free Mobile Apps to Help You Learn English Faster
Have you realized that you can put your smartphone to really good use for learning English? Here are 4 free mobile apps that will help you do just that.
Hello English
It covers all the aspects of language learning, including vocabulary, translation, grammar, spellings, spoken and reading skills. It uses interactive games to teach different English lessons and offers new audiobooks, latest news, and books. However, you should already understand basic English structures and alphabets, for the app can’t help you learn English from scratch (从零开始).
Duolingo
If you want to learn English from scratch, then this is the app you are looking for. Duolingo uses interactive games to help you learn English. For beginners, the app focuses on helping you learn verbs, phrases and sentences.
Lingbe
If you are ready to practice your spoken skills in the real­world, you’ll need Lingbe. It’s a community­based app where people help each other and share their native languages. It connects you with real people on call who are native English speakers.
Hello Talk
HelloTalk is similar to Lingbe as it connects you with native speakers to help improve your language skills. However, it adds a few extra functions that might interest you. You can view the information about users to find a match that interests you. Additionally, you can also send text and audio messages, and even do video calls with other people.
If you are a beginner, start from Duolingo and then use Hello English to take full command over the language. For fluent spoken English learners, you can try out Lingbe or Hello Talk.
1. What should you already understand to use Hello English?
A. Good reading and writing skills.
B. Basic listening and speaking tips.
C. Different English lessons and books.
D. Understand basic English structures and alphabets.
2. Which app is the best choice for an English beginner at first?
A. Hello English. B. Duolingo.
C. Lingbe. D. Hello Talk.
3. What can you do on Lingbe?
A. Read the latest news. B. Enjoy the interactive games.
C. Practice your spoken English. D. Talk with native speakers in the flesh.

【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段第一句For beginners, the app focuses on helping you learn verbs, phrases and sentences.对于初学者来说，这款应用主要帮助你学习动词、短语和句子。和文章最后一段第一句中的If you are a beginner, start from Duolingo 如果你是初学者，可以从Duolingo开始。可知，初学者应该选Duolingo，故选B项。
【3题详解】

I am a taxi driver. One Monday morning, I had stopped at New York Hospital when I found a well-dressed man dashing down the steps. He was waving to me. I waited until he jumped into the cab. “ LaGuardia Airport, please,” he said.
As always, I wondered about my passenger. “ What do you do?” “ I am in the neurology department(神经内科) at the hospital.” For some unknown reason, I decided to ask for his help.
“ Could I ask a favor of you?” He didn’t answer. “ I have a son, 16. He’s doing well in school. He wants a job this summer. Is there any possibility that you might get him a summer job?” After a pause, he said, “ The medical students have a research project. Maybe he could fit in. Have him send me his school records.” He searched his pocket and handed me a card.
That evening, I pulled the card from my pocket. “ Robbie,” I announced proudly, “ this could be a summer job for you. Send him your school records.” He read it out loud, “ Fred Plum, New York Hospital.” “ Is this a joke?” he said in disbelief. After I shouted and threatened(恐吓) to cut off his pocket-money, Robbie promised to send off his grades the next morning.
Two weeks later, when I arrived home, my son handed me a letter from Plum. He was to phone Plum’s secretary for an interview.
Robbie got the job. The white coat he wore made him feel more important than he really was. As high school graduation neared, Plum was kind enough to write letters of recommendation(推荐) for universities. To our delight, Robbie was admitted to New York Medical College.
It never occurred to me that a stranger should change my son’s future.
4. Who does the underlined phrase “ a well-dressed man” in the first paragraph refer to?

【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据“The medical students have a research project. Maybe he could fit in. Have him send me his school records”医学生有一个研究项目，也许他能适合。让他给我发他上学的记录。根据“As high school graduation neared, Plum was kind enough to write letters of recommendation(推荐) for universities. ” 高中毕业时，Plum还写推荐信到大学。由此判断出Plum是一个亲切好心、乐于助人的人。故选C项。

If Confucius (孔子) were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake, there would be a lot of candles. He'd need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.
While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day, few people in the United States will give him a passing thought. It's nothing personal. Most Americans don't even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.
But this doesn't mean that Americans don't care about Confucius In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.
In the past two decades, the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities. More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually include Chinese art, history and philosophy (哲学). Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantage of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks of Western philosophy. Students in the United States，at the same time, are racing to learn Chinese. So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States. Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.
So the old thinker's ideas are still alive and well.
Today China attracts the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.
As for the old thinker, he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West, even if his birthday is.
8. The opening paragraph is mainly intended to ________.
A. provide some key facts about Confucius
B. attract the readers' interest in the subject
C. show great respect for the ancient thinker
D. prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations
9. We can learn from Paragraph 4 that American students ________.
A. have a great interest in studying Chinese
B. take an active part in Chinese competitions
C. try to get high scores in Chinese exams
D. fight for a chance to learn Chinese
10. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Forgotten Wisdom in America
B. Huge Fans of the Chinese Language
C. Chinese Culture for Westerners
D. Old Thinker with a Big Future
11. The passage is likely to appear in ________.
A. a biography B. a history paper
C. a newspaper D. a philosophy textbook
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. C
【解析】
文章是新闻报道，主要讲述了外国人对中国文化的兴趣越来越浓，对于孔子的思想也越来越感兴趣这一社会现象。
【8题详解】
推理判断题，由第一段“If Confucius (孔子) were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake,”说如果孔子还活着话，将会用大蛋糕庆祝他的生日，可以推出是吸引读者的兴趣，故选B项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题，由第四段“Students in the United States，at the same time, are racing to learn Chinese.” 与此同时，美国的学生也在竞相学习中文。可以推出美国学生对学习汉语有很大的兴趣，故选A项。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是由倒数后三段“So the old thinker's ideas are still alive and well.Today China attracts the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.As for the old thinker, he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West, even if his birthday is.”可知，因此，这位老思想家的思想仍然很活跃。今天的中国比以往任何时候都更吸引西方，它需要更多的教师来向西方介绍孔子和中国文化。至于这位老思想家，即使是他的生日，他也不会被西方人遗忘。由此可知，短文的最佳标题为“西方人也热衷学习孔子思想”。故选D项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。本文主要讲述了外国人对中国文化的兴趣越来越浓，对于孔子的思想也越来越感兴趣。由此判断出短文很有可能是新闻报道的内容。故选C项。

It’s also India’s most famous tourist attraction. About 8 million people visit it each year.
But pollution is turning the white marble monument shades of green, yellow, and brown. The Taj Mahal stands on the polluted Yamuna River. Insects are attracted to the dirty water.

In the 1990s, India’s Supreme Court ordered hundreds of factories near the monument to close. Also, car and bus traffic was restricted. From time to time, workers clean the Taj Mahal. But doing so is difficult, expensive, and time-consuming; And it doesn’t prevent the discoloration.
On July 11, India’s Supreme Court gave the city of Agra a warning: “Either you destroy the Taj Mahal or you restore it”. Authorities in the city submitted a draft of an action plan on July 24. It suggests banning plastics and construction from the area. It also calls for the closing of more factories.
“In order to preserve the Taj Mahal, people must come together to work toward a solution. There needs to be positive pressure on people to act. We need to act immediately,” Sachchida Tripathi says.

【解析】
本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了著名喜剧大师卓别林的生平及贡献。
【41题详解】
考查可数名词的数。句意：他的父母都是贫穷的表演者。空前有形容词，故空处应用名词作表语，又根据both可知，此处用名词复数performers，表示“表演者”。故填performers。
【42题详解】
考查代词。句意：令人惊讶的是，查理刚会说话就开始学唱歌，刚会走路就开始学跳舞。It is astonishing that...表示“……使人大为惊奇”，其中it是形式主语，that引导主语从句。故填it。
【43题详解】
考查副词。句意：不幸的是，他的父亲去世了，使他的家庭更加窘迫。空处修饰后面整个句子，应用副词，且“his father died”是不好的事情，因此用unfortunately表示“不幸地”。故填Unfortunately。
【44题详解】
考查现在分词。句意：不幸的是，他的父亲去世了，使他的家庭更加窘迫。本句已有谓语动词died，且空处没有连词，所以空处需用非谓语动词作结果状语，动词leave与主语之间是逻辑上的主动关系，所以空处需用现在分词leaving。故填leaving。
【45题详解】
考查形容词。句意：他吸引人的性格使观众在感到沮丧的时候笑了起来。分析句子结构可知，空处需用形容词作定语修饰名词character，charm的形容词为charming“吸引人的”，符合题意。故填charming。
【46题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：他吸引人的性格使观众在感到沮丧的时候笑了起来。分析句子结构可知，空处需用关系词引导定语从句，先行词是time指时间，关系词在定语从句中作时间状语，所以空处需用关系副词when引导定语从句。故填when。
【47题详解】
考查时态。句意：查理·卓别林自编、导演和制作了他主演的电影。根据空前wrote，directed and可知，此处并列连词and连接了三个并列的谓语，形式需一致，所以空处谓语动词需用一般过去时。故填produced。
【48题详解】
考查介词。句意：查理·卓别林自编、导演和制作了他主演的电影。star in…在……扮演角色，固定短语，符合题意。故填in。
【49题详解】
考查被动语态和主谓一致。句意：由于他出色的表演，1972年他被授予奥斯卡特别奖，并被人们永远铭记。根据时间状语in 1972可知，空处谓语动词需用一般过去时，因为是被授予奖项，所以空处谓语动词需用一般过去时的被动语态：was/were done，主语是第三人称单数he，所以此处be动词需用was。故填was awarded。
【50题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意：直到今天，查理·卓别林仍然被认为是电影史上最伟大的演员之一。one of+ the+形容词最高级+可数名词复数，表示“最……之一”，固定搭配，所以空处需用形容词最高级greatest。故填greatest。

6.考查非限制性定语从句。句意：班级真的就像一个大家庭，让我感到温暖。此处family是先行词，指物，在后面的非限制性定语从句中作主语，所以此处需用关系代词which引导定语从句。故将who改成which。
7.考查形容词性物主代词。句意：另外，看到我的/我们的学生长大后成为伟大的人也很奇妙。此处是形容词性物主代词修饰名词students，可以表示我的学生或我们的学生。故将us改成my或our。
8.考查动词词组。句意：另外，看到我的/我们的学生长大后成为伟大的人也很奇妙。固定词组：grow up“成长”。故在grow后面加up。
