2、uld not speak English at all. One day he went into a restaurant and sat down at a table. When the waiter came, he opened his mouth, put his fingers in it, and took out again. He wanted to say. “Bring me something to eat.” The waiter soon brought him a cup of tea. The man moved his head from side to

3、side. The waiter understood him and took the tea away. In a moment he came with a cup of coffee. But the man again refused it. He shook his head whenever the waiter brought him something to drink, for drinks are not food. When the man was going away, another man came in. This man saw the waiter, and

4、 he put his hand on his stomach. That was enough. In a few minutes there was a large plate of meat and vegetables on the table in front of him. So you see, we cannot understand the language of signs as well as we can understand the language of words. 1According to the passage, when people do not und

Here are some of them to increase ones English language vocabulary. Learning English vo

7、cabulary is about much more than just learning the right words. It is based on understanding important words and expressions. Learning a word will not help very much if you quickly forget it. Researches show that it takes from 10 to 20 repetitions (重复) to really make a word part of your vocabulary.

8、Since most words are learned from how they are used in context, the more words one is shown, the better vocabulary one will have. Keep a piece of paper close to you. When you read, pay close attention to the word you do not know, write the word down and try to understand its meaning from the context

9、. Then look up the word in a dictionary. Remember that if you do not use English words that you have just learned in conversation or writing, you will forget them very quickly. So the best way to learn new words effectively is just by trying to use them in conversation and writing. Remember also tha

10、t practice is the key to fluent spoken English. Building vocabulary is a lifelong task. Remember: “In the beginning was the word.” Your future could depend on how rich your vocabulary is. It will also determine the quality of your communication. 4We can learn from the passage that learning English v

13、ation. C Many people believe that you lose the ability to learn new languages as you get older. Language experts, however, will tell you that youre never too old to learn a new language. As you get older, it can be more difficult to learn a new language, though. Children and adults learn new languag

14、es in different ways. For children, language is their life. They study for thousands of hours every year, because they need to learn languages to become part of their communities. Adults, on the other hand, are already part of a language community. Learning a new language means becoming part of anot

15、her language community, and adults rarely get the chance to practise as much as young children do. Moreover, children learning a new language are expected to make mistakes. This gives them freedom when learning to be daring and confident. Adults, however, often feel pressured to be perfect when lear

16、ning a new language. This can discourage many people and make it even harder to learn a new language. When young children learn a new language, they come to see various languages as a “normal” part of society. This mindset (思维模式) helps them embrace learning a new language without feeling like theyre

17、 doing something unusual or “too hard” So if you want to learn a new language, go for it! Its never too late to learn a new language. If youre older, it may take more work, but it can be done. If youre a young child, though, now is the time to step out and learn a new language！ 7 By saying “language

Language is part of our daily lives, no matter where we live in the world. _1_ Both language and music play a huge role in our culture and here are some of their similarities. Both language and music have a writing system. In English we record language using

22、 the alphabet, which is a collection of letters. Similarly, we use notes to keep a record of music.

Similarly, music can sound angry, sad or happy. Music can show you exactly how the composer was or is feeling, and allows us to share in that

25、emotion. When you feel happy, you might want to sing and dance to a happy song to celebrate your happiness. _5_ I think we have all used music to express or process our emotions, often combining it with language in the form of song lyrics. ABoth are expressive. BBoth vary with culture. CHow do you k

26、now that I am angry? DWe use language to express our thoughts. ESo just as you read English, you can read music. FSimilarly, music is part of many peoples lives. GIn contrast, you probably also listen to sad music when you are feeling down. 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分 45 分) 第一节 完形填空(共 20 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 30 分)

In fact, English is a mixture of words from many different languages. Because of this, the vocabulary

40、 of the English language is very large. It is much larger than almost every other language in the world. Many English words come from Latin, the old language of Rome, and also from Greek. From Latin we get words like “wine” and “day”. From Greek we have words such as “photograph” “Bible” and “ink”.

41、Because these two languages are dead, the words have most often come through other languages such as French, or the old German language. There are also many words from both Greek and Latin together, “television”， for example. Here “tele” is the Greek for “far” and “vision” comes from Latin and means

42、 “seeing” Many common English words come from very strange places. “Tea” is from China and “banana” is from West Africa. “Potato” came into the English language from the island of Haiti, and “tomato” first came from Mexico. One reason why the English language has so many words from other languages i

43、s that people from many different countries have come to live in Britain. Two thousand years ago Romans came from Italy, and stayed for over four hundred years. After they left, the Angles, Saxons and Jutes came from the northern part of modern Germany. In the ninth and tenth centuries Scandinavians

44、 came into the northern and eastern part of the country. Finally, in the eleventh century William of Normandy came from France, and became King of England. With him came French civilisation and the French language. In modern Britain there are four separate languages: English, Welsh (about one third

45、of the population of Wales speak Welsh), Scottish Gaelic and Irish Gaelic. And the English language itself is very different from one place to another. There are also many differences in spelling, vocabulary and pronunciation between American English and British English. The English language continu

46、es to grow. It is not only the language of Britain, but also of North America, Australia and New Zealand, and millions of people in Africa and Asia. Today, it is the international language of trade, and maybe the most important of all, the language of science and technology. 参考答案： 【阅读理解】 1-3DCB 4-6D
