　　"I'm not 100% convinced that memorizing the dictionary is the best way of improving your vocabulary." says the character played by Hugh Grant in Woody Allen's film Small Time Crooks. Yet why not? If you could memorize the dictionary--or even the 5,000 most common words in that dictionary--wouldn't that give you a huge advantage? (51 )Researchers estimate that a core vocabulary of between 2,000 and 3,600 high-frequency words is probably enough to push learners over the intermediate plateau (停滞阶段). So why don't we insist on them memorizing these words, from day one, and as quickly as possible?
　　(52) As an example, a New Zealand friend of mine who studied naori ( 毛利语 ) asked me recently what I, as a language teacher, would make of his teacher's method : "We just do masses of words around a theme, for example, family or food. We have to learn these words before the next lesson, then we come back and have a conversation about family or food etc, using these words. The teacher feeds in the grammar that we need to stick the words together." He added that he thought the method worked a treat.
　　Nevertheless, (53) for most teachers and learners the sheer spadework involved in memorizing lists of words doesn't make for very exciting teaching. More importantly, knowing a word involves much more than simply having memorized it. Is it readily accessible? Is it there when you need to say it? As Hotspur says ( in response to Glendower's boast that he" can call spirits from the vasty deep" ), "Why, so can I,or so can any man;but will they come When you do call for them?"
　　(54) Memorization of words without frequent opportunities to access them is probably time misspent.
　　Yet memory is important--perhaps the most important task facing the learner. (55) And therefore knowing how memory works, and how to make it work to the learner's advantage, is a major responsibility for teachers. So how does memory work, and what implications might these workings have on the teaching of vocabulary?
　　第(51)题 Researchers estimate that a core vocabulary of between 2,000 and 3,600 high-frequency words is probably enough to push learners over the intermediate plateau (停滞阶段).
　　答案：研究人员估计，2000～3000高频词的核心词汇可能足以帮助学习者渡过学习中间的停滞阶段。

　　第53题简答 for most teachers and learners the sheer spadework involved in memorizing lists of words doesn't make for very exciting teaching.
　　答案：对大多数老师和学生来说，记忆单词表的费力活并不有利于使教学引人人胜。
　　第54题简答 Memorization of words without frequent opportunities to access them is probably time misspent.
　　答案：死记单词却很少有机会接触或使用它们很可能是浪费时间。
　　第55题简答 And therefore knowing how memory works, and how to make it work to the learner's advantage, is a major responsibility for teachers.
　　答案：所以，了解大脑是如何记忆的，如何使记忆有利于学生学习是教师的一项主要任务。
　　五、写作
　　56.For this part, you are allowed thirty minutes to write a composition on the topic" Is a Test of Spoken English Necessary" .You should write at least 120 words, and base your composition on the outline given in Chinese below:
　　1.很多人认为有必要举行口语考试，理由是…;
　　2.也有人持不同的意见;
　　3.我的看法和打算。
　　答案：Is a Test of Spoken English Necessary
　　In many kinds of English tests such as CET( College English Test), TEM( Test for English majors),etc.a test of spoken English will be optional.Some people consider that it is unquestionably necessary to hold a test of spoken English in China because spoken English is as important as written English.Both of them are effective communication ways for English speakers. But sometimes even those top students who are good at grammar and writing skills find that it is difficult to express their thoughts freely when speaking.A test of spoken English will make students attach more importance to oral English, and thus help them with their communicating skills.
　　On the other hand, there are also people who hold that good reading, writing and translating skills would be enough for the average English learners. College students are already under great pressure from their study, Another required test will be a burden to them.
　　In my opinion, ! believe that a test of spoken English will do more good than harm.And I shall make all my efforts to practice and improve my spoken English.
