25、tuation“环境”应该指学习环境。3D通过对比看出有天赋的孩子在普通班在智力方面会受到遏制“hold back”。average“平均的；平常的；普通的；一般的”， average children意为“普通的孩子”，与前句的 “gifted children”相对应。4B通过下文 “can help the gifted children to graduate earlier”可以看出，此处所指的班级应该是特长班。5A把这些有天赋的孩子们(gifted children)从普通班里选走可能会造成严重的问题。6A通过上下文，尤其是 “who were taken out of a spe
26、cial class”看出，此处所指的孩子应该是intelligent，意为“聪明的；理解力强的”。7B从该句前面信息看出，这里所指的班级是“regular class”，“普通班”。8D从逻辑推出看，此处指学生在特长班，处处依赖老师，遏制个性发展。heavily表示程度“严重地”，rely heavily on sb.意为“过度地依赖某人”。9C根据“reflect voluntarily on many problems ”可知，“自发地思考许多问题”，与前面的“rely heavily on”相对应。voluntarily的意思是“自动地；自发地”。10B通过从后面的“lose inte
27、rest”和“do feel bored”以及“who is bored”可知。11A通过前句的“Many are concerned that”提示，表语部分是在说明那些人的concern“担心”，concern既是动词又是名词。12B从these看出，指的是上文的parents和teachers，adult具有概括性。13Atalented与gifted同义。14D从本句的so及前句的“Some top students do feel bored in class”可知。此处在说明学生的这种感受。15C从前句“Studies have shown that to be bored is
28、to be anxious.”可知。应用文写作假设你是李华，最近你与曾在你校就读的交换生Tony取得了联系。请你用英语给他写一封邮件，内容包括：1介绍你的学习情况；2询问他的汉语学习情况；3告知他你将去他所在的城市旅行。注意：1词数80左右；2可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。_【答案】Dear Tony，Im glad to get in touch with you.Im writing to tell you something about my study now.You know, I used to be weak in physics but now with the help o
