阅读下列短文,从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳选项。

While you are learning English,you find it not clever to put an English sentence,word by word,into your own language.Take the sentence “How do you do?” as an example.If you look up each word in the dictionary,one at a time,what is your translation?It must be a wrong sentence.

Languages do not just have different sounds.They are different in many ways.It’s import ant to master(掌握) the rules of word order in the study of English,too.If the speaker puts words in a wrong order,the listener can’t understand his sentence easily.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 doesn’t change.Let’s see the difference between the two parts of sentences.

“She only likes apples.”&“Only she likes apples.”

“I have seen the film already.”&“I have already seen the film.”

When you are learning English,you must do your best to get the spirit of the language and use it as the English speakers do.

(A)71.From the passage we know that when we are learning English.

A.we shouldn’t put every word into our own la nguage

B.we should look up every word in the dictionary

C.we need to put every word into our own language

D.we must read word by word

(C)72.The writer thinks it is in learning English.

A.difficult to understand different sounds

B.possible to remember the word order

C.important to master the rules in different ways

D.easy to master the rules of word order

(C)73.We can learn from the passage that.

A.the meaning of an English sentence always changes with the order of words

B.the order of words can never change the meaning of an English sentence

C.sometimes a different order of words has a different meaning

D.if the order of words is different,the meaning of the sentence must be different

(D)74.What is the best title for the passage?

A.DifferentOrders,Different Meanings

B.How to Speak English

C.How to Put English into Our Own Language

D.How to Learn English

B

The goal of students who come to school is to study.But if we don’t have a right way to study,we will waste the time and the money.The following are the ways of studying.

The best time for reading is morning.Because in the morning,the air is usually fresh and our minds are clear.For that reason,we can get good results.

In studying we must be patient.If we don’t know a text well,we must read it again.We shouldn’t read the next one until we have learned the first one well.

When we are studying,we must put our hearts into the book,or we can get nothing from the book which we are reading.

We must always ask “whys”.If it is not well understood,write it down and ask our teachers or our parents,orfriends,in any possible way.We must know it completely and our knowledge can be used well.

Though there are many ways of studying,the above mentioned(提到的) will be quite enough if we can keep them in heart and do so.

(B)75.The passage tells us ways of studying.

A.three

B.four

C.five

D.six

How can you remember a song from your childhood to this day?Why do your teachers use songs to teach you English?It seems that there is a scientific(科学的) 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(悦耳易记的) and meaningful way,”saidDr.KarenLudke.The findings may help those who have difficulties learning foreign languages.On his blog,Dr.Ludkewrites,“A listen-and-repeat singing method can support foreign language learning,and opens the door for future

research in this area.”

Many language teachers know the value of using music and singing.HuaZhuying,a teacher at a Chinese language school in Washington D.C.depends heavily on songs in teaching Chinese.Shesays,“I use music all the time to teach children Chinese.For little kids usually we use the music.Not only does it work,but it is fun for kids.”

“Sometimes,I think if I were taught English that way,maybe I could speak English much better than now,”HuaZhuying adds.

Our brain likes music,especially for remembering.So,if you’re still struggling(奋斗) in learning a language,why not try singing it out?

(D)79.According to the passage,the best way to remember a foreign language is to.

A.read and write more

B.listen to the teacher carefully

C.copy the words many times

D.remember words in a song

(A)80.Dr.Ludke believes that foreign language learning can be supported by.

https://www.360docs.net/doc/8e5331973.html,ing the listen-and-repeat singing method

B.listening to all kinds of famous music

C.writing songs with the language

D.reading the lyrics(歌词) again and again

(C)81.From the passage,we know that HuaZhuying.

A.is interested in writing English songs

B.teaches children English by using music

C.teaches Chinese in an American school

D.is a researcher in a language school

(B)82.What does the passage mainly tell us?

A.Many researchers realize the importance of language studying.

B.Your brain remembers a language better if you sing it.

C.Many language teachers know the value of famous music.

D.You will never learn a language well unless you can sing it.

There are many expressions about heart.If the person who “won your heart” does not love you,then you are sure to have a “broken heart”.In your sadness,you think that the person you loved is “hard-hearted”,and in fact,has a “heart of stone”.

You may tell someone about your personal problems.It can often make you feel better.Your friend “has her heart in the right place” if she says she is sorry for how you feel.If your friend says,“My heart bleeds for you”,she means the opposite.She is a cold-hearted person who does not really care about your situation.

When you are feeling afraid,“your heart is in your mouth”.You might say,for example,that your heart was in your mouth when you asked a bank to lend you some money to pay for a new house.

If that bank says no to you,do not “lose heart”.Be “strong-hearted”.Sit down with the banker and have a “heart to heart” talk.Be open and honest about your situation.The bank may have a “change of heart” and agree to lend you the money.Then you could stop worrying and “put your heart at rest”.

Perhaps you’ve seen the English letters “WC”in your city.They mean public toilets.But do you know it is far from elegant(优雅的) English?In fact,foreigners from English-speaking countries rarely use the letters.

Workers in our city are changing “WC” signs all over the city.The government is spending much money changing all the bad English on signs and restaurant menus.Many other places in China are following our steps.

“WC,or water closet,is old-fashioned English.It sounds dirty to me,” says Charlie Shifflet,a young man from the US.The old sign will become “Gents/Men” and “Ladies/Women”.

“I see lots of poor English in everyday life,and not only on signs,”he says.“I know what they mean.But they are Chinglish(中式英语),not real English.For example,when someone says to me ‘My hometown is Henan Province’,I know he should say:‘My hometown is in Henan Province’.Hometown is a smaller place in a province.” The common mistakes he picked up include “Not Entry”,which should be “No Entry”.“Direction of Airport” should be changed to “To the Airport”.And it is “room rate”,not “room price”.And remember to “Keep off the grass” rather than “Care of the green”.

(C)79.What does the writer think of the use of “WC”?

A.He doesn’t think it means water closet.

B.He doesn’t think it is old-fashioned English.

C.He doesn’t think it is proper for a sign.

D.He thinks it is elegant English.

(B)80.The underlined word “rarely” means “”.

(D)81.Charlie Shifflet.

A.is a Chinese living in America

B.sometimes uses Chinglish

C.likes to hear or see Chinglish

D.thinks Chinese people are sometimes using incorrect English

(B)82.The last paragraph is about.

B.examples of Chinglish

阅读下面短文,并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题后面的词数要求)。

E

English has some apologetic terms(表示歉意的用语).It seems that they mean the same thing.They almost do.However,what are the differences between “Pardon”,“I’m sorry”,“Excuse me” and “What”?

Pardon

Americans don’t really use “Pardon”.If you do,they will probably joke that you’re trying to sound

pretentious(炫耀的) or joke that you’re British.

I’msorry

We often use “I’m sorry” for past events.That’s to say,it is generally used to be sorry for something you have already done.For example,if you stepped on someone’s foot on a crowded bus,you would say “I’m sorry” or “Sorry”.

Excuseme

This is generally a term to ask permission(允许) for something.For example,you’re walking through a crowded space and someone is in your way.You would say “Excuse me” to ask him to move out of your way.

What

Americans usually use it to ask someone to repeat himself.If you want to be politer,you could say,“I’m sorry,what was that?”or “Excuse me,what did you say?”or any other such thing.Most Americans will just say “What” though.

In our daily life,we can also use these terms by mixing them up.You could,for example,ask someone to move by saying “Sorry,would you mind moving?”It’s an extra-polite way to make your request.

88.Which term is used for future events according to the passage?(不超过10个词)

“Excuse me” is used for future events.

89.When do Americans usually say “What”?(不超过10个词)

When they ask someone to repeat himself.

90.What is the passage mainly about?(不超过10个词)

The differences between some apologetic terms in English.
