牛津深圳版初中英语九年级上册Module 1 Unit 2 单元测试
Reading books can be a great way to pick up new vocabulary, see grammar in action and develop your understanding of a language.
Avoid the classics, for they often use very old English words that are difficult to understand. Children's books are a great place to start. Dr. Seuss's books are sure to make you laugh. Dr. Seuss writes his books in rhyme and they are all very funny. Starting with something like this means you are more likely to finish the book and want to read more.
For more advanced learners, you could try the Hobbit by J.R.R.Tolkien. If you like reading about historical events, Anne Holm ' I am David is a good read.
If you're not quite ready to read a full book, why not try Roald Dahl's Revolting Rhymes? Or, try a very short book like one from Roger Hargeaves's Mr. Men and Little Miss series. Although they are intended for young children, they are a good way to pick up some more basic vocabulary.
My final piece of advice would be to read something that interests you. Look at the short summary of the book on the back cover and see if it looks like something that you would enjoy. Think about the type that is in your own language and find one of that type in English.
A. For beginners, I would recommend starting with something short and simple.
B. The key to success is choosing the right book for you.
C. The book isn't too long and it may be easier to follow if you've seen the film.
D. This way, you're more likely to enjoy reading, rather than see it as a headache.
E. This book contains lots of short stories, based on fairy tales, all written in rhyme.

Street Markets Around the World
There are many ways of shopping. You can shop by telephone, by post or through your home computer, but for many people, the most exciting way to shop is also the most traditional—at a street market. You can find markets anywhere in the world. Here are four of them:
There are many "floating markets" in Asia; perhaps the most unusual(非同寻常) is in Thailand(泰国), at a place called Damned Saduak. It's open from six in the morning to the noon every day. People sell fresh fruit from their boats.
Many Belgians(比利时人) say that the Grand Place is the most beautiful square in the world. It's the home of a colorful flower market. It's open every day except(除了) Monday. On Monday, instead of(替代) flowers, there's a wonderful bird market.
One of the world's famous markets is in Mexico City(墨西哥城)—the Sonora Market. You can buy toys, birds, herbs(草本) and medicine. There're all kinds of things. It's open every day from early in the morning till late at night.
In England, on Saturday and Sunday thousands of young people from all over London travel to the Camden Market—it's the place to go for street fashion, CDs and tapes. Many people also go there for fun.
