Ⅲ.语境改错
文中共有6处错误,每句中最多有两处,请找出并改正。
Recently we have a discussion about which English makes more difference to us.
Some students think British English has a more influence comparing with American English because it is the “original” variety of English and the BBC and many international newspapers use it.
However, others are in the favour of American English. They hold the view that more English language films are American, that has led to more and more people across the world used American English.
In my opinion, whichever English we use, we have no difficulties understanding each other, because they have a lot in common.
答案:第一句:makes后加a
第二句:comparing→compared
第三句:去掉the
第四句:第二个that→which; used→using
第五句:difficulties→difficulty

Ⅴ.短文填空
(Ⅰ)根据提示填空
I am sorry to hear that you are worried about the ❶varieties (variety) of English you have been learning and I hope I can help you.
Firstly, the ❷differences (differ) between British and American English are not as big as many learners believe. There is almost no difference in grammar and only a few differences in vocabulary. British and American people understand each other ❸without_difficulty (没有困难) almost all of the time; we watch films and television from each other's countries for ❹pleasure (please).
Secondly, there is not one British or American English. ❺For_example (例如), all major cities in the UK have their own dialects with different ❻accents (口音) and sometimes small
differences in grammar and vocabulary from each other. Sometimes these accents can be ❼more_difficult (difficult) to understand for even a British person than some American Englishes. Also, there are Englishes from many other countries. People who speak these Englishes usually also manage ❽to_communicate (communicate) with other English speakers without any problems.
All learners need to be able to understand English spoken and written by as many people as possible so as to be understood. You should ❾concentrate_on (集中精力于) this goal, not on how ❿to_speak (speak) “British” or “American” English.
(Ⅱ)片段选词填空
compared with, words and phrases, consult the dictionary, keep a diary, meet with, stick to, have trouble in, of great use, develop the habit of, for the development of
❶Keeping_a_diary in English is one of the effective ways to improve our English writing ability.
❷Compared_with other forms of writing, it is shorter and takes less time. It can help us ❸develop_the_habit_of thinking in English. If we ❹stick_to this practice, gradually we will learn how to express ourselves in English. In keeping a diary in English, we certainly ❺meet_with many difficulties. In the first place, it often happens that we ❻have_trouble_in finding appropriate ❼words_and_phrases to give expression to our mind. Secondly, there are many idiomatic ways of saying things in Chinese. And it is extremely hard for us to put them into English properly.
As far as I am concerned, my suggestion is that we should always have a notebook and a ChineseEnglish dictionary within easy reach. Whenever something beats us, we can first put it down in our notebook and then ❽consult_the_dictionary. We can also turn to our English teacher for help, if necessary. In short, I believe that it is ❾of_great_use to keep a diary in English ❿for_the_development_of our writing skills.

(2019·河北省“五个一名校联盟”第二次考试)
Two of the saddest words in the English language are “if only”.I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regrets, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.
My father is famous in our family for saying, “Take the extra minute to do it right.” I always try to live by the “extra minute” rule.When my children were young and likely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only” moment, whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter, or something that
required a little more work such as taping padding (衬垫) to the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.
I don't only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to safety.It's equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal relationships.We all know people who lost a loved one regretted that they had forgone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you”.When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn't be here.But then I thought about the fact that he was 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn't miss an opportunity to see him.I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.
I know there will still be occasions when I have to say “if only” about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality.And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right, or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection, I know that I'm doing the right thing.I'm buying myself peace of mind and that's the best kind of insurance for my emotional wellbeing.
语篇解读:“我”认为英语中最悲伤的两个词是“if only”,因为它们表达了遗憾、错失的机会、错误和失望。父亲在“我”小时候经常告诉我们花费额外的时间也要把事情做好来避免遗憾,“我”听从父亲的建议并认为这样做是对的。
1.Why does the writer regard “if only” as two of the saddest words in the English language?
A.Because people use them when they feel sad.
B.Because they express regrets, lost opportunities, mistakes and disappointment in life.
C.Because they remind the writer of some sad experiences.
D.Because they mean sadness in the English language.
解析:选B 细节理解题。由第一段中的“Two of the saddest words in the English language are ‘if only’ ...because they convey regrets, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment”可知,“我”认为英语中最令人伤心的两个词是“if only”,因为这两个词表达了遗憾、错失的机会、错误和失望,故选B项。
2.What's the meaning of the underlined word “forgone” in Paragraph 3?
A.Given up. B.Come across.
C.Got through. D.Held back.
解析:选A 词义猜测题。该词所在的句子表达的意思是:我们都认识这样的人,他们在失去所爱之人后会后悔错失了说“我爱你”或“我原谅你”的机会。所以画线词表示“失去了”,和短语give up意思接近。故选A项。
3.The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to ________.
A.see a doctor B.finish her work
C.join a celebration D.accompany her father
解析:选D 细节理解题。题干中的关键信息“decided to go to her office”对应原文倒数第二段中的“I had decided to go to work”。从倒数第二段可以看出,“我”知道父亲要去自己办公室对面看眼科医生时,本来打算按原计划休假,但突然意识到父亲已经84岁了,所以“我”决定即便是自己的休息日,为了陪父亲,也会去上班。故选D项。
4.What is the best title for the passage?
A.Advice from My Father
B.Avoidance of Saying “If Only”
C.The “Extra Minute” Rule
D.The Importance of Emotional Wellbeing
解析:选B 标题归纳题。根据首尾段的第一句话及文章大意可知,本文主要是针对避免说英语中最伤心的两个词“if only”进行阐述的,所以B项“避免说‘if only’”符合全文内容。

(2019·石家庄市高中毕业班模拟)Experts believe that the best time to teach kids language skills is when they are babies.Most time the task is easily accomplished with parents reading or talking to their babies.However, in some cases that is not possible due to busy work schedules or when kids are born deaf.Now, an adorable blueeyed robot, a human avatar, and some hightech neuroscience may be able to assist parents with this important developmental task.
The Robot AVatar thermalEnhanced system, or RAVE, is the brainchild of a team of researchers led by LauraAnn Petitto, an educational neuroscientist, at Washington, D.C.'s Gallaudet University.The learning process begins when the robot's camera, which is focused on the baby's face, detects tiny changes in his/her body temperature.This, combined with the baby's facial expression, causes the robot to turn its head and guide the baby's attention to a computer screen, on which a human avatar starts to communicate with the baby, much like a parent would.For example, if the baby points towards the screen, the avatar might respond, “Are you pointing to me?” and follow that up with a nursery rhyme, fairy tale, or some essential social communication, all in American Sign Language (ASL).The “conversation” continues until the kid loses interest.
The researchers, who have been testing the system for three years, found that babies as young as 6 to 8 months old began to move their hands in a rhythm similar to ASL after interacting with RAVE for just a few minutes.Petitto says natural language, whether communicated through speech or sign, activates the same parts of the brain and believes the rhythmic motions prove the babies are learning the essential elements of communication.
What sets this technique apart from other methods, such as showing educational videos or television shows, is its interactive nature and realtime response to the baby's actions.The
researchers say that while it is too early to determine the system's longterm influence on baby communication, the initial response has been very encouraging.Next, they plan to introduce an avatar that can both sign and speak to babies.
语篇解读:本文是一篇科普说明文,主要介绍了一种可以帮助父母教婴儿学习语言的系统,以及该系统的工作原理、效果评价和研究人员对这种技术的展望。
5.What can the RAVE system help parents do?
A.Improve babies' health condition.
B.Take good care of babies.
C.Develop babies' language skills.
D.Keep babies company.
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第一段第一句可知,专家认为教孩子语言技能的最佳时间是孩子的婴儿时期;结合第一段尾句“Now, an adorable blueeyed robot ... assist parents with this important developmental task.”以及第二段中的“The Robot ...a team of researchers”可知, RAVE系统可以帮助父母完成教婴儿学习语言的任务,故C项正确。
6.What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A.How babies learn ASL effectively.
B.How parents educate their babies.
C.How robots talk and read to babies.
D.How the RAVE system works.
解析:选D 段落大意题。根据第二段第二、第三句可知,机器人的摄像头可以检测到婴儿细微的体温变化并与婴儿的面部表情相结合,使机器人转动头部,引导婴儿注意电脑屏幕,在电脑屏幕上,一个人类的形象开始与婴儿交流,就像父母一样;结合全段内容可知,该段主要介绍了RAVE系统的工作原理,故D项正确。
7.What indicates babies are learning with the help of the RAVE system?
A.Interest in videos and TV shows.
B.Changes in their body temperature.
C.Improvement in their natural language.
D.Hand movements in a rhythm like ASL.
解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“babies as young ...a few minutes”可知,在和这种系统交流互动之后,婴儿就会开始以类似于ASL的节奏晃动他们的手,故D项正确。
8.What do the researchers think of the RAVE system?
A.Promising. B.Impractical.
C.Satisfactory. D.Disappointing.
解析:
选A 观点态度题。根据最后一段第二、第三句可知,尽管对这种系统培养婴儿交流技能的长期影响进行评价为时过早,但是其初期的表现令人鼓舞,研究人员将在下一步推出可以用手语和口语与婴儿交流的形象。据此可知,研究人员对这种系统的发展是充满着希望的,A项意为“很有前途的,大有希望的”,符合语境。
