One reason is that English has so many rules. 1 Sometimes,
32、 this leaves learners confused. For example, the order of words in a sentence can be tricky. 2 The pronunciation of English words cannot always be judged by their spelling.

37、earners confused.”可知，这有时会让学习者感到困惑。因而推断设空处的表述应指出这些规则的不利之处。故D项(这些规则也有很多例外。)符合语境。2F根据设空后一句“The pronunciation of English words cannot always be judged by their spelling.”及所举的例子可知，本段说英语发音与拼写的关系。F项(英语难学的另一个原因是单词的发音。)符合语境。3C根据设空前一句“And, maybe the worst thing of all is that there are many idioms, or express
38、ions, in English.”可知，也许最糟糕的是，英语中有很多习语或表达。C项中idioms为复现词，且举了一个习语的例子。4A根据设空前句“learning root words can help a nonnative speaker use English”可知，学习词根可以帮助非母语者使用英语。设空下句“Root words can help you to break down large, new words into smaller units to discover their meanings.”表述了词根的作用，即词根对英语学习有很大的帮助，由此推测设空处应是对词根的
39、解释或定义。故A项(词根是词的最基本形式。)符合语境。5G根据设空前一句“Learning just one root word can help you understand several words in English.”可知，学习词根可以有效扩大词汇量，故G项(所以，通过学习20或30个词根，你可以增加你的词汇量到上百个新单词。)符合语境。Voyages of people from England play an important part in 1 (spread) the English language.

44、Johnsons famous comment that “When two Englishmen meet, their first talk is of weather.” Though Johnsons finding is almost the same as it was over two hundred years ago, most commentators (评论员) fail to come up with a convincing (令人信服的) explanation for this English weatherspeak.Bill Bryson, for examp
45、le, concludes that, as the English weather is not exciting at all, the obsession (痴迷) with it can hardly be understood. He argues that the most impressive thing about the English weather to an outsider is that there is not very much of it. Simply the reason is that it doesnt matter to talk about wea
46、ther because it is so changeable and unpredictable.Jeremy Paxman, however, disagrees with Bryson, arguing that the English weather is by nature attractive, Bryson is wrong, he says, because the English preference for the weather is not about the natural phenomena (H) at all. “The interest is less in

Both
48、 commentators, somehow, are missing the point. The English weather conversation has nothing to do with the weather. English weatherspeak is a system of signs, which is developed to help the speakers overcome shyness and actually talk to each other. Everyone knows conversations starting with weathers

50、服害羞心理的社交手段。精彩范文As is widely known, any English conversation starts with “the weather”， but few commentators can convincingly explain the reasons for it. (要点1) Bill Bryson holds that the obsession with the English weather isnt understandable as there is nothing serious about it. (要点2) Jeremy Paxman, however, argues that its attraction just lies in its uncertainty. (要点3) In fact, English weatherspeak is not about the weather itself but serves as a way to keep social connection. (要点4)- 16 - 版权所有高考资源网
