18、eople want to learn or improve their English but it is difficult to find the best method. Is it better to study in Britain or America or to study in your own country？2 The advantages of going to Britain seem obvious. Firstly, you will be able to listen to the language all the time you are in the cou
19、ntry. You will be surrounded completely by the language wherever you go. Another advantage is that you have to speak the language if you are with other people. In Italy, it is always possible, in the class, to speak Italian if you want to and the learning is slower.3 On the other hand，_ staying at h
20、ome to study. You dont have to make big changes to your life. As well as this, it is also a lot cheaper than going to Britain but it is never possible to achieve the results of living in the UK. If you have a good teacher in Italy, I think you can learn in a more concentrated way than being in Brita
21、in without going to a school.4 So, in conclusion, I think that if you have enough time and enough money, the best choice is to spend some time in the UK. This is simply not possible for most people, so being here in Italy is the only viable(可行的) option.The most important thing to do in this situatio

D考查冠词的用法。第一空表特指，用定冠词the；a good knowledge of为固定短语，意为“
24、熟悉，精通”。2C考查副词辨析。really “真正地”；obviously “明显地”；actually “实际上”；generally “一般来说”，从句意来看，显然actually最符合情境。3A考查present作形容词的用法。present作前置定语时，意思是“现在的”；作后置定语时，表示“在场的”。4C考查时态、语态和主谓一致。A as well as B作主语，谓语动词与A保持一致；此处应用主动语态。5Cthe former，the latter“前者，后者”，为固定搭配。late “迟到的，晚的”；later“稍后”；lately “最近，近来”。6C考查动词辨析。recogn
25、ize “认出”。句意为：这20年来那个山村变化是如此之大，以至于我现在几乎都认不出它来了。know “知道”；pick “捡起”；realize “意识到”。7A考查定语从句与the sameas的用法。句意：你能给我买一本昨天你给汤姆的那样的书吗？the sameas “与一样”。故选A项。8D考查情景交际。根据后句的“我不是出生在特权人家”可知，答案是否定的，故选no way “决不”；其余选项意思是“没问题”，与句意不符。9C考查动词不定式的用法。句意：应当充分利用收集来的钱来帮助那些有困难的人们。句子的主语是the money，谓语是should be made use of，col
26、lected是过去分词作定语修饰the money，to help作目的状语。故选C项。10B考查动词request虚拟语气的用法。句意：她要求不要向任何人谈起她的决定。request所跟的宾语从句要用“should 动词原形”，should可以省略，又因为no one 和tell是被动的关系，故用被动语态。应该选B项。11B考查定语从句。句意：我不喜欢你嘲笑他的方式。先行词是the way，引导词作状语时，可用that、in which 或不填引导词。故选B项。12A考查名词辨析。句意：应他的邀请，我去参加了他的聚会。at ones request “应某人的邀请；在的请求下”，符合题意。故
27、选A项。13Cask sb. not to do sth.意为“请求某人不要做某事”，不能说ask sb. doing sth.。14A考查同位语从句中的虚拟语气。request之后的that从句为同位语从句，需用虚拟语气，即谓语动词用“should动词原形”，其中should可省略，故选A项。15D考查常用表达的辨析。句意：收到她的来信真高兴。信不信由你，我们上次见面是在30多年前。whats more “而且”； that is to say “也就是说”；in other words “换句话说”；believe it or not “信不信由你”。.文章向我们介绍了一代文豪莎士比亚的作
28、品为什么能够从古代众多的作家的作品中脱颖而出，以其顽强的生命力幸存于世的，就是继承古代优秀作品之长，并具有自己的特色。16A考查细节理解。由第二段的“Shakespeare borrowed certain details from the ancient Roman writer Plautus. For his play Macbeth, Shakespeare most likely used a work on Scottish history by Raphael Holinshed for information. Shakespeare might have borrowed f
29、rom other writers，”可以看出，莎士比亚的作品受到了早期作品的影响。17B考查细节理解。由第二段的“in Shakespeares play The Comedy of Errors Shakespeare borrowed certain details from the ancient Roman writer Plautus.”可知答案。18D考查细节理解。由第二段最后一句“but the intensity(强度)of his imagination and language made the plays his own. While many plays by oth
30、er writers of his time have been forgotten, Shakespeare and his art live on.”正是他的语言和想象力的强度使得作品独具特色，具有了极强的生命力，留存到了现在。19A考查细节理解。由倒数第二段的“But the first and greatest example would be his great influence on the English language.”可以看出，莎士比亚对后世最大影响在于英语语言上。20C考查主旨大意。纵观全文可以看出，文章向我们介绍了古代文化对莎士比亚作品的影响，以及其作品对后世尤其是
31、对英语语言的影响。.本文主要讲述了在国内学英语和去英国学英语的不同之处以及就如何学好英语给出了一些建议。21The best way to learn English.主旨大意题。本文在第一段最后一句“Is it better to study in Britain or America or to study in your own country？”以疑问句的形式提出了主题。又在第二段“The advantages of going to Britain seem obvious.”强化了主题，可知本文主要探讨了学习英语的最佳方式。22You can listen to English a
32、ll the time. 从第二段第一句和第二句The advantages of goingyou are in the country.得知你去英国显而易见有很多好处，首先就是长期能听到人们讲英语。23there are also advantages of句子填空题。此处与第二段的“The advantages of going to Britain ”相对应，又由后文提到的在国内学习生活不用改变太多，更便宜以及如果有好的老师，可以更集中地学习，可知此处应该是说在国内学习也有优点。24Speaking only English in class and trying to use Eng
33、lish whenever possible outside the class.归纳表达题。由本文最后一句“ to speak only English in class and to try to use English whenever possible outside the class.”可知作者建议在课堂上只说英语，并且在出了教室之后，尽量使用英语。25staying at home to study/ studying at home代词指代题。由画线词之后的“ cheaper than going to Britain.”可知前面应该是与其作比较的也就是本段第一句提到的“staying at home to study”或“studying at home”。
