48、项为多余选项。Although many Chinese students say that their knowledge of English grammar is good, most would admit that their spoken English is poor. Whenever I speak to a Chinese student, they always say,“My spoken English is poor.” 71 I would like to suggest that there may be some reasons for their probl
49、ems with spoken English.First, they fail to find suitable words to express themselves due to a limited vocabulary. 72 However, you can speak with a limited vocabulary, if you choose a positive attitude. Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know. 73 Sometimes they make mistake
50、s when they are speaking because they are shy and nervous. Yet students should remember that their goal should be FLUENCY NOT ACCURACY. Your aim in writing is to be accurate following the rules for grammar and using the right words and spelling them correctly. However, in speaking your aim is fluenc

You want to get your message across, to talk to someone in English, as quickly and as well as you can, even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense, but it doesnt matter. 74 The third reason is that not enough attention is paid to listening.

Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to improve their spoken English they passively wait for speaking opportunities to come to them and wonder why their English a

54、English opportunities wherever you go.E. However, their spoken English does not have to remain“poor”! F. Second, they are afraid of making mistakes.G. The second reason lies in the reluctance of using what has just been learned. 第卷（非选择题，共35分）第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节：短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）假定英语课上老师要求同桌之
