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 real-world, you'll need Lingbe. It's a community-based app where people help each other and share their native languages. It connects you with real people on call who are native English speakers.

HelloTalk

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 HelloTalk.

11. 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. English letters and basic structures.

12. Which app is the best choice for an English beginner at first?

A. Hello English.        B. Duolingo.           C. Lingbe.             D. HelloTalk.

13. 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.

B

I received a private message on Facebook. It began harmlessly enough: "Hey, girl. Wanted to invite you to join my next challenge group-we'll be focusing on fitting in 30 minutes of exercise and balanced nutrition."

It was all becoming too much. Facebook was running my life, not me.

But what killed Facebook for me was when I posted a photo, and five minutes later my son asked me how many "likes" it had got. His question was a wake-up call.

"Likes" are signs of acceptance and approval I had forgotten that acceptance and approval need to come from within and had unknowingly set him a bad example.

Before Facebook, surfing the internet was an occasional distraction and I spent a lot more time reading books and magazines. I checked in with friends through texts, emails and phone calls.

To recreate the simplicity of those days and set a healthier example to my so, I deactivated my Facebook account.

I'd been in the habit of checking Facebook many times a day, so I had to come up with some new habits. I carried a novel and a crossword puzzle book around with me. I rediscovered knitting. I started taking yoga classes.

I started to remember a few things. My body is fine just the way it is. I have friends who will help me out when I'm in trouble, and I will help them out. I do my best to be a good mother, and our son is happy and healthy. We are very lucky to be able to afford two vacations a year.

I stopped looking at the world through my cellphone. I felt completely present in the moment.

The break left me feeling better about myself, my family, my home and my life.

After a few weeks, I returned to Facebook. Now I look at the photos of my friends' kids growing up and treasure how social media allows me to keep in touch with family far and wide. I look in on a daily basis, but no longer with the desire constantly to post updates.

It is not an addiction any more.

14. What was the author's life like before her break from Facebook?

A. She enjoyed reading in her free time.           B. She spent much time on social media.

C. She didn't get along well with her son.          D. She didn't care what others thought of her.

15. The underlined word "deactivate" in Paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to "________".

A. close               B. update              C. keep                D. check

16. What did the author do to change her life?

A. She went to the gym as often as she could.      B. She developed some healthy habits.

C. She tried to make money for her holidays.       D. She traveled around a lot for a year.

17. What is the author's attitude toward social media?

A. Critical.             B. Supportive.         C. Objective.            D. Indifferent.

C

Crimes happen every day, but people aren't the only victims（受害者）of illegal activities. There are also animals. Though animals can't tell the police officers what they've suffered, these are some of the hardest cases to solve.

As we all know, poachers（偷猎者）can make a lot of money by selling meat, fur and other parts of protected animals. As the animals become rarer, their parts become more valuable. So poachers earn even greater rewards for their collection of protected species. In the past few years, the price of ivory has risen to about $850 per kg. An ivory can sometimes weigh 11 kg or more.

Now, scientists are fighting back. It is known that DNA plays a big part in solving human crimes. Like fingerprints, DNA is unique to every person. So by examining DNA in blood or hair, the police can recognize criminals and victims.

When the police find poached animal parts, such as their fur or bones, it is difficult to know what species the victims are, which is mostly cared about. DNA can prove helpful in figuring it out and also where the animals came from. That's because members of one local group of animals share more DNA in common with each other than they do with more distant groups of their species.

If the world's poaching victims could talk, they would probably thank these scientists for their work.

18. The author uses the example of ivory to show that ________.

A. ivory is the most expensive part of an elephant

B. poaching is a very common activity in the world

C. poachers always treat the protected animals cruelly

D. poachers make a large profit from their illegal activities

19. What is the author's attitude towards the scientist' work?

A. Critical.             B. Doubtful.           C. Uninterested.          D. Appreciative.

20. The Third paragraph is mainly about ________?

A. how to examine DNA of an animal             B. why DNA is unique to every person

C. the improvement of DNA technique             D. how DNA technique helps the police

21. When the police find poached animal parts, the first thing they want to know is ________.

A. who killed the animals                      B. when the crime happened

C. what species they belong to                  D. where the animals come from

参考范文

Good morning, everyone! It is my honor to be here to share with you my opinions on learning in senior high school.

In my opinion, we should learn how to study. This is the most important. Knowledge is power. In fact, time is equal to everybody. So we must make full use of time. Only in this way can we get high marks. That doesn't mean you need to be buried in studying every day. You must have a good command of studying ways. What's more, developing a good habit is a treasure that will be beneficial to your life. You must know that learning knowledge isn't the only aim for the students.

Above all, you can get more skills in life. Try to be friendly and honest to everybody, which will help you make many friends. Rome is not built in a day. I hope everybody can make great progress in senior high school!

Thank You!
