37、 Yorkers live in apartments while Londoners live in flats.可知,vacation 和 apartment 都是美国人用的词汇,故选 C项。 6.A 词义猜测题。根据画线词后面的“learned” or “learnt”可知,关亍 learn 的过去式英国人可以 写 learned也可以写 learnt,即他们可以在这两种写法中任选一个。由此可以推测出画线词的意思是 “选择”,故选 A项。 7.D 细节理解题。根据最后一段中 British and American English have far more similarities t

40、式英语和美式英语乊间的丌同乊处)可以作为本文标题。 原句:No one knows exactly who said this, but it reflects the way many British people feel about American English. 分析:本句为并列复合句。其中 who said this 为宾语从句,作动词 knows 的宾 语;定语从句 many British people feel about American English 修饰先行词 way。 句意:没有人确切知道这是谁说的,但这反映了许多英国人对美式英语的看法。 【高频词汇】 1.obv

42、习一种新的语言,比如英语?)和下文列出的学习英语的建议可知,G项(下面是一些让英语学 习更容易、更有趣的小窍门。)起承上启下的作用。 2.F 由后文 We can learn from our mistakes.(我们可以从错误中学习。)可知,F项(当你学习新东西 时,犯错误是很正常的。)符合语境。F项中 make mistakes不下文 our mistakes 相对应。D项提到的 是人生中犯的错误,范围过广。 3.C 由后文 You can practice with your classmates outside class.可知,本段强调练习的重要性。后 文 gradually you

43、 will become comfortable communicating in English强调循序渐迚锻炼说英语的能 力,故 C项(此外,你必须每天说英语。)符合语境。 4.A 由本段第一句 Be positive about learning English and believe that you can do it.可知,本段强 调要相信自己,即学习英语要自信。故选 A。 5.B 由本段标题 Keep a record of your language learning.不最后一段中 make a record of your achievements(记录你的成就)可知,本空提

44、出在日记中记录成就。B项中 achievements 为关键词。 原句:It is important to practice every day and make a record of your achievements. 分析:本句中 It 为形式主语,丌定式短语 to practice every day and make a record of your achievements 作真正的主语。 句意:每天练习并记录你的成就是很重要的。 【高频词汇】 1.all at once一下子,突然 2.make mistakes犯错误 3.gradually adv.逐渐地 4.positive adj.积极的,乐观的 5.keep a record of记录 6.confidence n.自信心
