Andy never wanted to go to bed on time. His parents had explained to him how important it was to go to bed early and get a good rest. But Andy paid no attention to them, and they didn't know what to do until one weekend when they were visiting Andy's grandparents.

Grandpa Peter heard all about it and said, "This sounds like a job for Tubby." They loaded the cat onto the car and returned home.

That night, at bedtime, the same problem arose. Andy didn't want to go to bed, and even though his parents waited a while to see if Tubby would solve the problem, nothing happened. Andy's father began to complain.

Hours later, Andy finally decided to go to bed. But what a surprise when he entered his bedroom! Tubby was in his bed, pot-belly in the air, sound asleep.

Andy tried to move the cat, but there was no way. That night he hardly slept, lying on one tiny corner of his bed.

The next day the same thing happened, even though Andy was much more tired from not having slept. When the third day arrived, he had understood that if he wanted to sleep in his bed, he would have to get into it before Tubby did. That night, when his parents only started hinting (暗示) at the topic of bedtime, Andy rushed upstairs and dived into bed. His parents couldn't believe it. They knew nothing about Tubby in the bed, nor did they understand why Andy went to bed on time, without complaint. They were so happy about this that they stayed up quite late, celebrating.

If you’re like most students, you may find it challenging to learn a foreign language. However, there are a few tips you can use in order to earn a top grade — as well as actually use the skills you’ve learned.

One of the most important and basic lessons in dealing with a foreign language is to learn and understand each concept and lesson before moving on to the next one. If you don’t understand one concept but move on to the next chapter anyway, you’re less likely to understand the new material.

Learning a new language is not only an academic tool, but can help you in your everyday life as well. Being good at another language can help you communicate with other people, aid you when traveling to foreign countries, and even make your résumé look better.

And it is important to learn correct pronunciation as soon as possible for poor pronunciation can be hard to break. Native speakers of the language as well as others fluent in the language you are learning will appreciate your efforts to learn correct pronunciation.

Gather outside materials such as books, study guides, books on tape, and travel books to aid you in learning the language. Your textbooks can’t possibly teach you everything you need to know, so seeking outside sources is generally a good rule of thumb to keep in mind.

A significant motivator in learning a foreign language is traveling to the country where the language is spoken. That way, you can see firsthand how the language is used, learn the culture, and meet native speakers of the language. Native speakers appreciate sincere attempts of others who take the time to learn their language.

Seek out native speakers of your new language in your school or neighborhood. They can help you with many skills, including pronunciation, and they can provide immediate feedback on your progress.

4. We can learn from the passage that _____.

     A. textbooks are not good for us when learning a foreign language

     B. learning pronunciation well from the very beginning is very important

     C. poor pronunciation can be easy to break with the help of native speakers

     D. seeking too many outside sources will be more harmful than beneficial

5. What is suggested doing in the last paragraph?

   A. Going on a trip abroad.                      B. Practicing with native speakers.

   C. Asking for feedback from our teachers.  

     D. Finding a motivator in learning languages.

6. In which part of a website would this text probably appear?

     A. Entertainment.          B. History.                  C. Education.                     D. Nature.
