Here is a passage about learning a foreign language.

Outside of class, the most natural way of finding out if you are making mistakes is from other people’s responses. If the mistakes are too serious, your listeners will be asking you all the time what you mean. If they are not so serious, then people may be asking you whether you said such and such. That will tell you how close you are to speaking “cogently”.

Of course, there are other times when it is important to have errors pointed out. Your class assignments（作业） are probably marked in this way, in which case you need to spend time going over them to take advantage of the individual feedback. In some classes the teacher gets better and better at grammar because she does all the corrections, but the students make slow progress if, when an assignment is returned, they quickly stuff it into their folders without looking.

You are the person who should be connecting your error, even if the marker has signaled them, when you look at them; there are some steps to work through. One distinction that has been made about learners’ language is this. You make mistakes about rules that you already know but you make errors about points you haven’t learned yet. In other words, you can find your own mistakes, but not your errors. First, make sure you understand what you have written or said, or your correction will simply be another stab at the right answer. Next, decide on the best way of practicing the correct form. Would it help you to write out the sentence once more? Can you make up another similar sentence? Then you could test yourself in a few days time to see whether you have remembered the right form, anyone can get it right immediately after being told. He challenge is to remember it and apply it later.

57．We can learn from the passage that         in learning a foreign language.

A．making mistakes about rules can always be avoided

B．speaking is the only way to correct mistakes

C．getting and using responses is important

D．errors can be easily corrected

A．By following the suggestions the writer put forward.

B．By practicing the correct forms.

C．From the teacher’s getting better and better at grammar.

D．From your listeners responses.

59．The writer thinks some students make slow progress because          .

A．they understand what they have written or said.

B．they have remembered the right form

C．they hardly pay attention to their marked assignments

D．they decide on the best way of practicing the correct form

60．Which of the following might be the most important to work through your mistakes?

A．Keeping the right form in mind and using it later.

B．Writing out the sentence once more.

C．Learning your mistakes by heart.

D．Correcting your mistakes and writing down the teacher’s words.

　No man can change the weather. Nobody can control the weather. But if we read the signs correctly we can tell what the more important changes in the weather will be. This way of telling what the weather will be like on the following day or two is called weather forecasting. People who do this are not making the weather. They are merely using their knowledge of the weather today, to tell us what the weather may be like tomorrow.

　　People for many centuries and in all countries have studied the weather and tried to make weather forecasts.

　　Something distant objects such as hills and tall trees seem to be very clear and near. This is a sign of much water vapour in the air, and therefore rain will probably come. When distant sounds are very clearly heard, then wet and stormy weather is on the way. Kings round the sun are a sign of coming rain.

　　Many people feel in their bones the coming of wet weather. Their joints aches. Some birds fly high if fine weather is on the way. This is probably because the insects, which they are hunting, then fly low.

　　If the stars twinkle clearly at night, then fine weather will continue. If a mist appears in the early morning, just about sunrise, then the day will be warm. If the sunset in mostly red in colour, then the following day will be fine.

　　Most of the above sayings have been made up by people who have used their eyes and their brains to forecast the weather. Some of the popular beliefs about the weather, however, are untrue. For example, many people say they can forecast the weather by looking at the noon． the state of the noon has nothing to do with the weather may happen to change with changes in the moon,but that is only chance.

　　Almost everyone listens to what the weatherman says. But he doesn't always tell us what we want, and once in a while he makes a mistake. Still, he probably comes closer to being correct than anyone else.

　　Some men spend their whole lives trying to forecast the weather. Such people collect exact information about the weather from all parts of the world．Each place sends its information at certain times each day to a central office where the weather information from all these places can be examined．The information received is put on to a map of the world, called a weather chart.

　　As scientists discover more and more about the weather in every part of the world, and satellites and computers are used to gather and analyse weather data, weather forecasting will become more and more certain. And we are quite certain sooner or later we will be able to change the weather!

　　Many people think they can tell what the weather is going to be like. But they hardly ever agree with each other. One man may say, “Do you see how cloudy it is in the east? It' s going to have fine weather tomorrow.” Another man will say, “Yes, it's cloudy in the east. We're going to have rain weather tomorrow. ”

　　People often look for the weather they want. When a farmer needs water, he looks for something to tell him it' s going to rain; he won' t believe anything else. When friends have a picnic, they are so sure the weather is going to clear up quickly that they sit eating their lunch while it rains.

(1)People who tell us what weather will be like on the following day or two can ________.

[　　]

A．make the weather we like

B．hardly control the weather

C．know when to plant

D．do something about the weather

(2)When distant sounds are very dearly heard we will ________.

(3)People usually believe that ________.

C．they can do something to change the weather data

D．they can read the weather signs correctly
