Integrating(融为一体) the four main language skills (listening, reading, speaking, and writing) has showed to be very beneficial in the second language classroom. Study shows we __1__ use a single skill when municating, so it makes sense to __2__ more than one skill at a time.
There are several advantages for using an integrated approach. Not only are learners given the chance to interact in a __3__ way, but learners are also exposed to the richness and plexity(复杂性)of the language. __4__， with a separated approach, it is difficult to use language in a meaningful way. For __5__， when students practise only one skill at a time, such as speaking, it is meaningless, because they can not concentrate on just speaking while they are __6__ municating.
Another advantage to using an integrated approach is that students are more likely to be __7__ to learn a language if they are able to use it to interact, rather than to just have knowledge about the language. In this approach, language is treated as a __8__ of interaction, rather than an academic subject.
A third advantage of an integrated approach is that skill integration allows for __9__ in all main skills at the same time, which allows students to be able to use their strengths in order to help them grow in their weaknesses. In other __10__， if a student is particularly __11__ at reading, they may be able to use this skill to help them with listening or writing.
An integrated skills approach is obviously a more realistic approach to language learning, while a separated approach does not __12__ a meaningful understanding of language. Nor does it seem to be a motivating style to learning a foreign language.

Babies don't learn to talk just from hearing sounds. New research suggests they're lip­readers too.
Florida scientists discovered that starting around age 6 months, babies begin shifting from the eye gaze(注视)to studying mouths when people talk to them.
“In order to imitate you, the baby has to figure out how to shape their lips to make that particular sound they're hearing，” explains psychologist David Lewkowicz of Florida Atlantic University, who led the study. “It's an incredibly plex process.”
Apparently it doesn't take them too long to absorb the movements that match basic sounds. By their first birthdays, babies start shifting back to look you in the eye again — unless they hear the unfamiliar sounds of a foreign language. Then, they stick with lip­reading a bit longer.
In the experiment, David Lewkowicz tested nearly 180 babies, groups of them at ages 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 months.
How? They showed videos of a woman speaking in English or Spanish to babies of English speakers. A device tracked where each baby was focusing his or her gaze and recorded how long the gaze lasted.
They found a dramatic shift in attention: When the speaker used English, the 4­month­olds gazed mostly into her eyes. The 6­month­olds spent equal amounts of time looking at the eyes and the mouth. The 8­ and 10­month­olds studied mostly the mouth. At 12 months, attention started shifting back toward the speaker's eyes.
It makes sense that at 6 months, babies begin observing lip movement, Lewkowicz says, because that's about the time babies' brains gain the ability to control their attention rather than automatically look toward noise.
But what happened when these babies used to English heard Spanish? The 12­month­olds studied the mouth longer, just like younger babies. They needed the extra information to decipher (破译)the unfamiliar sounds.
“It's a pretty interesting finding，” says University of Iowa psychology professor Bob McMurray, who also studies baby speech development. The babies “know what they need to know about, and they're able to draw their attention to what's important at that point in language development.”
1. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
A. Babies Learn to Talk from Hearing Sounds
B. Babies Learn to Talk by Reading Lips
C. How Babies Learn Language after Birth
D. Babies Can Understand a Foreign Language
2. When an *** talks to a 5­month­old baby, the baby usually ______.
A. looks the *** into the eyes
B. watches the *** 's lip
C. studies the *** 's facial expressions
D. feels very excited
3. Babies start to focus their attention on eyes of speakers again when they are nearly ______.
A. 7 months old B. 8 months old
C. 12 months old D. 20 months old
4. When babies are half one year old, what can they do?
A. They can control their attention.
B. They can recognize human faces.
C. They can play with toys.
D. They can tell parents from others.

Ⅳ.阅读填空(每空不超过三个单词)
Need some tips on learning English? We have some great ones for you this time and we're sure they will help you to learn English more easily and with more fun!
(1)Find something interesting about your English study. Why not watch your favourite film in English? You could also read the lyrics (歌词) of pop songs, or check out celebrity sites (名人网站) and learn more about your favorite basketball or football players.
(2)Read English texts as often as you can. This could be news, short stories or novels. Choose an interesting text that is not too difficult for you. Don't look up every new word — even without a dictionary you will understand a lot if you are interested in the topic. If you are a football fan, you won't have problems understanding an English article about football.
Also watch the news in Chinese and find English news about the same topics. Even if you don't understand every word in English, you will understand it as you already know what the text is about.
(3)Choose your favourite movie. Have paper and pen ready as you may want to write down useful words or phrases. Listening to your favourite English songs is another cool way. Read first and find out what the song is about. Pick some words or phrases that you would like to learn. A dictionary may also be useful.
(4)With your friends, you can repeat your English vocabulary, do your homework and help each other with English grammar. Maybe your friends have a better way of studying. Or, maybe you can give them cool advice!
(5)Set a target for each week or each month and give a reward for yourself if you can achieve it. For example, you can write: If I can do that, I will play my favorite puter games for half an hour; buy my favorite snack (Harry Potter books, etc.); visit the zoo; go to a concert.
