Mr. Thomas had always wanted to make a trip into the middle of Africa to shoot wild animals.

But first he had not had enough money， and after he had married， his wife had not wanted him to leave her. At last his wife agreed to the trip if he allowed her to go， too.

“But it will be very uncomfortable，” Mr. Thomas warned her. “It will be very hot and we shall live in a tent， and it may be dangerous.”

“I dont care，” said his wife. “I want to go with you.” So they bought a big tent， camp beds and a refrigerator， which did not need electricity and many other things， which would make the trip comfortable， and went off to the middle of Africa.

The first morning， before Mr. Thomas took his gun and left the tent， he gave his wife a bell and explained to her， “If you feel in danger and you need me， ring this bell and Ill come at once.”

After a few minutes， he heard the bell and returned quickly to the tent. “Whats the matter？” he asked. “Nothing，” said his wife. “I was only trying the bell.”

Mr. Thomas went off， but after a quarter of an hour， the bell rang again. Mr. Thomas hurried back to the tent， but his wife said， “Im sorry. I wanted to clean our tent， and I knocked the bell over by mistake.”

Mr. Thomas returned to his hunting， but soon he heard the bell once more. This time， when he got back to his camp， the tent was burning and Mrs. Thomas was lying on the ground， with blood running from a big cut on her leg. “Thats better！” said Mr. Thomas. “This time the bell had been used correctly！”

Sing the Language Youre Learning

How can you remember a song from your childhood to this day？ Why do your teachers use songs to teach you English？ It seems there is a scientific reason for this.

Researchers are now studying the relationship between music and remembering a foreign language. They find that remembering words in a song is the best way to remember even the most difficult language.

“Singing could be a new way of learning a foreign language. The brain likes to remember things when they are used in a catchy and meaningful way，” said Dr. Karen Ludke. The findings may help those who have difficulty learning foreign languages. On his blog， Dr. Ludke writes， “A listen-and-repeat singing method can support foreign language learning， and open the door for future research in this area.”

Many language teachers know the value of using music and singing. Hua Zhuying， a teacher at a Chinese language school in Washington D. C. depends heavily on songs in teaching Chinese. She says， “I use music all the time to teach children Chinese. For little kids usually we use English songs but teach them the Chinese lyrics. So its easy for them to start because they know the music. Not only does it work， but it is fun for the kids.” “Sometimes， I think if I were taught English that way， maybe I would speak much better English than now，” Hua Zhuying adds.

Our brain likes music， especially for remembering. So， if youre still struggling in learning a language， why not try singing it out？

However， the man believed that everyone should have a dream. “The most important thing is that we believe in our dreams. Of course we make many mistakes， but we never give up hope，” Ma said.

Mas business is not only focused on e-commerce. Alibaba has a large stake （股份） in Sina Weibo and Youku Tudou. Hes also on the board of Chinas most successful soccer club， Guangzhou Evergrande when he was 50.

Now， Mas dream is even bigger. “We have a dream. We hope in the next 15 years that the world changes because of us，” he said.

A）英汉互译  阅读短文，将文中划线的句子翻译成汉语或英语。（共5小题，每小题3分）

36. When you are learning English， you find it not clever to put an English sentence， word for word， into your own language. Take the sentence “How do you do？” for example. If you look up each word in the dictionary， one at a time， what is your translation？ 37. 在你自己的语言中，它肯定是一个错误句子。

38. 语言不止有不同的发音。They are different in many ways. Its important to master the rules for the word order in the study of English， too. If the speaker puts words in a wrong order， the listener cant understand the speakers sentence easily. 39. Sometimes when the order of words in an English sentence is changed， the meaning of the sentence changes. But sometimes when the order is changed， the meaning of the sentence doesnt change. 40. Lets see the difference between the two pairs of sentences.

（1）“She only likes apples.” “Only she likes apples.” （2）“I have seen the movie already.” “I have already seen the movie.”
