Both of them are correct English, but the first one sounds less polite. That’s because it’s a very direct question. So we need to learn how to be polite when we make requests. In English, just like in Chinese, we change the way we speak when talking with different people. ____17____ If you say to your teacher, “Where is my book?”, this might sound impolite. But if you say, “Excuse me, Mr. West. Do you know where my book is?”, your question will sound much more polite. On the other hand, it might be all right to say “Where is my book?” in some situations, perhaps with people you know well. And you would not usually say, “Peter, lend me your pen.” ____18____ Usually in English polite questions are longer and include extra (额外的) language, such as “Could you please…?” or “Can I ask…?” It sounds more polite to say, “Peter, could you please lend me your pen?” ____19____ For example, if you stop a stranger in the street, you might first say, “Excuse me. I wonder if you can help me.” or “I’m sorry to trouble you, but…” before asking him for help. It might seem that speaking politely is more difficult than being direct. However, in order not to offend (使……不愉快) people, learning about the language etiquette (礼节) is just as important as learning grammar or vocabulary. ____20____ A. When you talk to old people, you need to know the language etiquette. B. And doing this will also help you become better at English, or any other language you wish to speak. C. A very direct order like this can sound impolite in English. D. The expressions you use might depend on whom you are speaking to or how well you know them. E. So knowing how to ask for information politely is important. F. Sometimes we even need to spend some time leading into a question or request. 【答案】16. E 17. D 18. C 19. F 20. B 【解析】 【导语】本文讨论礼貌性提问的重要性。 16题详解】 根据“Asking for information or help is a very common and necessary activity, especially when we visit a foreign country.”可知此处应强调问信息或请求帮助时的礼貌性，选项E“因此，知道如何礼貌地询问信息非常重要。”符合，故选E。 【17题详解】 根据“In English, just like in Chinese, we change the way we speak when talking with different people.”可知我们在与不同的人交谈时会改变说话的方式。选项D“您使用的表达可能取决于您正在与谁交谈或您对他们的了解程度。”符合，故选D。 【18题详解】 根据“And you would not usually say, ‘Peter, lend me your pen.’”可知此处的语言是比较直接的，选项C“像这样非常直接的命令在英语中听起来不礼貌。”符合，故选C。 【19题详解】 根据“For example, if you stop a stranger in the street, you might first say, ‘Excuse me. I wonder if you can help me.’ or ‘I’m sorry to trouble you, but…’ before asking him for help.”可知切入主题前，需要先客套一下，选项F“有时我们甚至需要花些时间引导出一个问题或请求。”符合，故选F。 【20题详解】 根据“However, in order not to offend (使……不愉快) people, learning about the language etiquette (礼节) is just as important as learning grammar or vocabulary.”可知为了不冒犯他人，学习语言礼节与学习语法或词汇同样重要。选项B“这样做也会帮助你更擅长英语，或者你希望说的任何其他语言。”符合，故选B。 第二部分 语言知识应用（共两节，满分25分） 第一节 完形填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Most people change because of some experiences. ____21____ do I. I had some unforgettable experiences in high school. They have taken me from what I used to be like to what I am like now. In the past, I was quiet and shy. I ____22____ talked with others about what was in my mind. That was because I was afraid someone would laugh at or criticize (批评) me.

Both of them are correct English, but the first one sounds less polite. That’s because it’s a very direct question. So we need to learn how to be polite when we make requests. In English, just like in Chinese, we change the way we speak when talking with different people. ____17____ If you say to your teacher, “Where is my book?”, this might sound impolite. But if you say, “Excuse me, Mr. West. Do you know where my book is?”, your question will sound much more polite. On the other hand, it might be all right to say “Where is my book?” in some situations, perhaps with people you know well. And you would not usually say, “Peter, lend me your pen.” ____18____ Usually in English polite questions are longer and include extra (额外的) language, such as “Could you please…?” or “Can I ask…?” It sounds more polite to say, “Peter, could you please lend me your pen?” ____19____ For example, if you stop a stranger in the street, you might first say, “Excuse me. I wonder if you can help me.” or “I’m sorry to trouble you, but…” before asking him for help. It might seem that speaking politely is more difficult than being direct. However, in order not to offend (使……不愉快) people, learning about the language etiquette (礼节) is just as important as learning grammar or vocabulary. ____20____ A. When you talk to old people, you need to know the language etiquette. B. And doing this will also help you become better at English, or any other language you wish to speak. C. A very direct order like this can sound impolite in English. D. The expressions you use might depend on whom you are speaking to or how well you know them. E. So knowing how to ask for information politely is important. F. Sometimes we even need to spend some time leading into a question or request. 第二部分 语言知识应用（共两节，满分25分） 第一节 完形填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Most people change because of some experiences. ____21____ do I.
