While they’re playing games, wouldn’t it be great if they could be learning at the same time? Good educational apps offer fun challenges that teach specific grade-level skills. Here are four apps that combine fun and learning. Understanding Math ($3.99; iOS) Understanding Math goes beyond basic comprehension to gain a deeper understanding of the whys and hows of math. The app tracks your child’s progress to determine strengths and weaknesses in different skill areas, and you can customize (改制) your child’s learning experience to suit the needs. Word Creativity Kit ($2.99; iOS) Word Creativity Kit aims not only to make creative writing fun but also build up grammar rules. The app presents a series of words from seven categories, such as space or fantasy. Kids add their own words to finish the complete thoughts that these words have inspired. Barefoot World Atlas ($4.99; iOS) Barefoot World Atlas helps kids learn about geography and world cultures with a touch of the screen. Each region features a set of subtopics from wildlife and natural features to native, and architecture. These facts and illustrations are delivered in photographs, sounds, and hundreds of mini videos. My Grades & Homework ($80.99; iOS) A combination of grades and homework tracker, My Grades &Homework can help your child stay organized and on top of the progress in school.

To introduce four educational apps for readers to buy and use. D. To ask readers to design more interesting educational apps for children. B Some of the classrooms at Taft Elementary in Santa Clara, California, have one disadvantage in common: They don’t have windows. That’s true for Logan Earnest’s fifth grade classroom, and he felt it was affecting his students. “Most of the day they’re inside,” Earnest told CBS News. “And they don’t really get to see any trees, grass, or the blue sky.” He said the gray walls could be depressing to the kids and may affect their attention and even their attendance. This was confirmed by former school psychologist Ernesto Rodriguez, who said the lack of windows does affect kids, because research shows being in and around nature eases anxiety and benefits students. Though no longer a practicing psychologist, perhaps he knows now more than ever the impact nature has on mental health. Rodriguez became a park keeper on Southern California’s Catalina Island and began focusing on his passion — landscape photography. It was during his training to become a park ranger that he learned a fact that kids who have views out windows to trees do better academically, emotionally and creatively. So an idea to bring nature into rooms came to his mind: Why not bring landscapes in classrooms — through the ceiling (天花板), because teachers don’t typically use them. Rodriguez took 360 degree shots of tree canopies (树冠) using his photography skills, then he printed them and fit them onto the classroom ceiling of Earnest’s fifth grade. “Beautiful,” one student said as she entered the room. Another student said the trees brought him peace, “When you look up, it feels like you’re sitting under a tree.” Earnest said he thought there would be many positive effects on his students. “I think my attendance is going to go up. The kids are going to want to come here more frequently. Overall, I think the kids are going to be happier,” he said. 4. What is the common challenge shared by some classrooms at Taft Elementary? A. Lack of fresh air. B. They don’t have enough lighting. C. Absence of windows. D. They have limited access to technology. 5. Why did Ernesto Rodriguez bring landscapes into classrooms? A. To advance his photography skills. B. To connect the students with nature. C. To improve the teachers’ performance. D. To cause the students great excitement. 6. How did the students react to Rodriguez’s pictures on the classroom ceiling? A. They did not notice the change. B. They failed to focus on lessons. C. They preferred the usual ceiling. D. They agreed with the new additions. 7. What’s Logan Earnest’s attitude towards the change in the classroom? A. Unsure. B. Supportive. C. Alarmed. D. Concerned. C The beginning of the 20th century saw more than 100, 000 tigers living in the wild, a number that experienced a huge reduction of about 97% due to factors like illegal hunting and trading habitat (栖息地) loss, shortage of food, human-tiger conflict (冲突) and lack of will to address these factors. Protecting and improving tiger habitats can lead to the protection of thousands of other species as-well as important ecosystem services that benefit (使受益)nations and the people who live in and close to these habitats. Forests in tiger landscapes store almost 3. 5 times more carbon than other forests and offer, protection against floods and other natural disasters. They also attract ecotourism (生态旅游业) and support agriculture by providing fresh water, safeguarding soil and regulating local weather. In 2010, the governments of 13 tiger range countries finally committed to doubling the number or tigers in the wild and have made great efforts since. In 2022, India reported an increase of 619 tigers since 2018, making it the second nation — after Nepal — to double its wild tiger population compared to the 2010 baseline. On July29, 2023, the world celebrated International Tiger Day with good news from Bhutan. Its latest tiger population survey reported 131 more tigers living in the wild, a 27% increase from its first systematic survey in 2015. Bhutan’s achievement is reason to celebrate. But people in Bhutan and other tiger range countries may not necessarily be enthusiastic (热衷的) about the growth in tiger populations. After all, there are challenges ahead such as the possibility of more human-tiger conflicts and reduced Willingness to live alongside large predators Preventing conflict from happening in the first place is an essential first step. Governments and protection organizations can invest (投资) in early warning systems, structures for protection against predators and other measures to prevent human-tiger conflicts. When conflicts do occur, measures to reduce their impacts, like insurance projects, are important: Finally, the most important part of human-tiger coexistence (共存) is an fair and inclusive way to protection. Local communities should have a voice in developing and carrying out protection strategies. 8. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The benefit of ecotourism. B. The importance of saving tigers. C. The necessity of planting forests. D. The influence of tigers on agriculture. 9. How is paragraph 3 mainly developed? A. By giving examples. B. By showing differences. C. By describing a course. D. By providing research results. 10. Why are people not enthusiastic about increasing tiger populations? A. The increased illegal hunting. B. The investment required. C. The previous failure. D. The possible danger. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Strategies for Preventing Human-Tiger Conflicts. B. Protecting Tiger Habitats and Ecosystem Services. C Challenges and Chances in Human-Tiger Coexistence. D. The Role of Local Communities in Tiger-Protection Efforts. D The practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past. With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphones, writing by hand has become something of a nostalgic (怀旧的) skill. However, while today’s educators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful — both in school and in life. Virginia Berninger, professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington, says it’s important to continue teaching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand. Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks — both on a computer and by hand. The study, published last year, found that when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate. In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student’s writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to how well they can write. “Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active, which helps us access our vocabulary, word meaning and concepts. It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas,” Berninger said. “Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe (转换) those words in the mind into written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen,” the study said. “Seeing the words in the “mind’s eye” helps children not only to turn their ideas into words,” says Berninger, “but also to find out spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct them over time.” “In our computer age, some people believe that we don’t have to teach spelling because we have spell checks,” she said. “But until a child has a functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they won’t have the knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer.” 12. What makes writing by hand a thing of the past? A. The importance of writing by hand. B. The lack of practice in handwriting. C. The use of new technologies like computers and smartphones. D. The belief that handwriting skills are unnecessary for success. 13. Which of the following best shows the role of spelling? A. Spelling improves one’s long-run memory of words. B. Spelling ability is closely connected to writing ability. C. Spelling benefits the translation from words into ideas. D. Spelling slows down finding right words to express ideas. 14. What does the underlined expression “mind’s eye” in Paragraph 5 mean? A. Wind. B. Spirit. C. Imagination. D. Picture. 15. What conclusion could be drawn from the passage? A. Handwriting still has a place in today’s classrooms. B. Spell checks can take the place of spelling teaching. C. Computers can help people with their choice of words. D. Functional spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade. 第二节(共5小题;每 小题2. 5分，满分 12. 5 分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 With the rise of language apps, learning a new language is perhaps more popular than ever.

Plus, cartoons usually come with clearer and slower pronunciation, which will help learners adapt to understanding without subtitles. ___18___ There is another choice: listening to podcasts and songs in the language you are trying to master. Not only can you pick up idioms, but you can also explore various topics to enlarge your vocabulary and understand differences within various contexts. Being exposed to the rhythm of native speakers will also help your learning, and you can achieve all of this while developing a fondness for the culture. When practising speaking, one runs the risk of making mistakes or embarrassing oneself when attempting to practise in public or with a native speaker. So, instead, start small. Speak to your pet or an inanimate object around the house. ___19___ The goal is to get used to sounding the letters. producing the accent and getting the words out. Another creative method to put your writing skills to test is to keep a pen pal. Ideally, find someone who is not only fluent in the language you are learning, but who is also learning a language you are fluent in. Through the exchange of letters, you not only get to practise your writing skills but can also provide feedback to each other. ___20___ A. Tell them about your day or describe how you feel. B. If watching cartoons is not your cup of tea, fear not. C. Plus, everyone gets a friend through a foreign stamp. D. So can foreign speakers gain fluency within weeks or months? E. Understanding of the films and shows depends heavily on subtitles. F. Instead, a step down the ladder would be to watch children’s cartoons. G. But it is unrealistic to expect master y of a new tongue simply through their use. 第三部分 语言运用(共二节，满分 30 分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题 1分，满分 15 分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 During a recent long international trip, my youngest daughter got airsick (晕机) again.

That’s true for Logan Earnest’s fifth grade classroom, and he felt it was affecting his students. “Most of the day they’re inside,” Earnest told CBS News. “And they don’t really get to see any trees, grass, or the blue sky.” He said the gray walls could be depressing to the kids and may affect their attention and even their attendance. This was confirmed by former school psychologist Ernesto Rodriguez, who said the lack of windows does affect kids, because research shows being in and around nature eases anxiety and benefits students. Though no longer a practicing psychologist, perhaps he knows now more than ever the impact nature has on mental health. Rodriguez became a park keeper on Southern California’s Catalina Island and began focusing on his passion — landscape photography. It was during his training to become a park ranger that he learned a fact that kids who have views out windows to trees do better academically, emotionally and creatively. So an idea to bring nature into rooms came to his mind: Why not bring landscapes in classrooms — through the ceiling (天花板), because teachers don’t typically use them. Rodriguez took 360 degree shots of tree canopies (树冠) using his photography skills, then he printed them and fit them onto the classroom ceiling of Earnest’s fifth grade. “Beautiful,” one student said as she entered the room. Another student said the trees brought him peace, “When you look up, it feels like you’re sitting under a tree.” Earnest said he thought there would be many positive effects on his students. “I think my attendance is going to go up. The kids are going to want to come here more frequently. Overall, I think the kids are going to be happier,” he said. 4. What is the common challenge shared by some classrooms at Taft Elementary? A. Lack of fresh air. B. They don’t have enough lighting. C. Absence of windows. D. They have limited access to technology. 5. Why did Ernesto Rodriguez bring landscapes into classrooms? A. To advance his photography skills. B. To connect the students with nature. C. To improve the teachers’ performance. D. To cause the students great excitement. 6. How did the students react to Rodriguez’s pictures on the classroom ceiling? A. They did not notice the change. B. They failed to focus on lessons. C. They preferred the usual ceiling. D. They agreed with the new additions. 7. What’s Logan Earnest’s attitude towards the change in the classroom? A. Unsure. B. Supportive. C. Alarmed. D. Concerned. 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了Ernesto Rodriguez将风景“带进”教室，让孩子们能够在没有窗户的教室里接触到自然。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Some of the classrooms at Taft Elementary in Santa Clara, California, have one disadvantage in common: They don’t have windows.(加利福尼亚州圣克拉拉市塔夫脱小学的一些教室有一个共同的缺点：没有窗户。)”可知，这个学校的一些教室面临的一个共同挑战是它们都没有窗户。故选C。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“This was confirmed by former school psychologist Ernesto Rodriguez, who said the lack of windows does affect kids, because research shows being in and around nature eases anxiety and benefits students.(前学校心理学家Ernesto Rodriguez证实了这一点，他说缺乏窗户确实会影响孩子，因为研究表明，在大自然中和大自然周围可以缓解焦虑，对学生有益。)”以及第四段“It was during his training to become a park ranger that he learned a fact that kids who have views out windows to trees do better academically, emotionally and creatively. So an idea to bring nature into rooms came to his mind: Why not bring landscapes in classrooms—through the ceiling (天花板), because teachers don’t typically use them.(正是在他接受公园护林员培训的过程中，他了解到一个事实，即那些能看到窗外树木的孩子在学业、情感和创造力方面都做得更好。于是，他想到了一个将自然带入房间的想法：为什么不——通过天花板——把风景带进教室，因为老师通常不会使用它们。)”可知，Ernesto Rodriguez了解到自然可以缓解焦虑并对学生有益，缺乏窗户会影响孩子的表现，而那些能看到窗外树木的孩子在学业、情感和创造力方面都表现更好，所以他想到了通过天花板把风景带进教室这个方法。由此可推测出，他将风景带进教室是为了将学生和自然联系在一起。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中两名学生的评价““Beautiful,” one student said as she entered the room. Another student said the trees brought him peace, “When you look up, it feels like you’re sitting under a tree.””(“太美了，”一个学生走进房间时说。另一名学生说，这些树给他带来了平静，“当你抬头看的时候，感觉就像你坐在树下。”)可推知，学生很喜欢教室天花板上的风景，他们同意这新添加的东西。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Earnest said he thought there would be many positive effects on his students. “I think my attendance is going to go up. The kids are going to want to come here more frequently. Overall, I think the kids are going to be happier,” he said.(Earnest表示，他认为这将对他的学生产生许多积极影响。他说：“我认为我的出勤率会上升。孩子们会想更频繁地来这里。总的来说，我认为孩子们会更加快乐。”)”可推知，他对教室里的改变是持欣赏和赞同的态度的。故选B。 C The beginning of the 20th century saw more than 100, 000 tigers living in the wild, a number that experienced a huge reduction of about 97% due to factors like illegal hunting and trading habitat (栖息地) loss, shortage of food, human-tiger conflict (冲突) and lack of will to address these factors. Protecting and improving tiger habitats can lead to the protection of thousands of other species as-well as important ecosystem services that benefit (使受益)nations and the people who live in and close to these habitats. Forests in tiger landscapes store almost 3. 5 times more carbon than other forests and offer, protection against floods and other natural disasters. They also attract ecotourism (生态旅游业) and support agriculture by providing fresh water, safeguarding soil and regulating local weather. In 2010, the governments of 13 tiger range countries finally committed to doubling the number or tigers in the wild and have made great efforts since. In 2022, India reported an increase of 619 tigers since 2018, making it the second nation — after Nepal — to double its wild tiger population compared to the 2010 baseline. On July29, 2023, the world celebrated International Tiger Day with good news from Bhutan. Its latest tiger population survey reported 131 more tigers living in the wild, a 27% increase from its first systematic survey in 2015. Bhutan’s achievement is reason to celebrate. But people in Bhutan and other tiger range countries may not necessarily be enthusiastic (热衷的) about the growth in tiger populations. After all, there are challenges ahead such as the possibility of more human-tiger conflicts and reduced Willingness to live alongside large predators Preventing conflict from happening in the first place is an essential first step. Governments and protection organizations can invest (投资) in early warning systems, structures for protection against predators and other measures to prevent human-tiger conflicts. When conflicts do occur, measures to reduce their impacts, like insurance projects, are important: Finally, the most important part of human-tiger coexistence (共存) is an fair and inclusive way to protection. Local communities should have a voice in developing and carrying out protection strategies. 8. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The benefit of ecotourism. B. The importance of saving tigers. C. The necessity of planting forests. D. The influence of tigers on agriculture. 9. How is paragraph 3 mainly developed? A. By giving examples. B. By showing differences. C. By describing a course. D. By providing research results. 10. Why are people not enthusiastic about increasing tiger populations? A. The increased illegal hunting. B. The investment required. C. The previous failure. D. The possible danger. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Strategies for Preventing Human-Tiger Conflicts. B. Protecting Tiger Habitats and Ecosystem Services. C. Challenges and Chances in Human-Tiger Coexistence. D. The Role of Local Communities in Tiger-Protection Efforts. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了保护老虎的栖息地和生态系统服务的好处，以及保护老虎所带来的挑战。 【8题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段第一句“Protecting and improving tiger habitats can lead to the protection of thousands of other species as-well as important ecosystem services that benefit(使受益)nations and the people who live in and close to these habitats.(保护和改善老虎栖息地可以保护数千种其他物种以及重要的生态系统服务，使生活在这些栖息地及其附近的国家和人民受益。)”以及最后一句“They also attract ecotourism(生态旅游业) and support agriculture by providing fresh water, safeguarding soil and regulating local weather.(它们还通过提供淡水、保护土壤和调节当地天气来吸引生态旅游和支持农业。)”可知，本段主要讲保护老虎的栖息地和生态系统服务对人类有很大的好处，从而强调拯救老虎的重要性。故选B项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段开头起“In 2010. the governments of 13 tiger range countries finally committed to doubling the number or tigers in the wild and have made great efforts since. In 2022, India reported an increase of 619 tigers since 2018, making it the second nation —after Nepal—to double its wild tiger population compared to the 2010 baseline. (2010年。13个老虎分布国的政府最终承诺将野生老虎的数量增加一倍，并为此做出了巨大努力。2022年，印度报告自2018年以来增加了619只老虎，使其成为继尼泊尔之后第二个野生老虎数量比2010年增加一倍的国家。)”可知，第三段主要是通过举例讲述人们对拯救老虎做出的努力。故选A项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“After all, there are challenges ahead such as the possibility of more human- tiger conflicts and reduced Willingness to live alongside large predators.(毕竟，前方还有挑战，比如可能会有更多的人与虎之间的冲突，以及与大型捕食者一起生活的意愿降低。)”可知，潜在的风险可以解释人们对老虎数量增加缺乏热情。故选D项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“Preventing conflict from happening in the first place is an essential first step. Governments and protection organizations can invest(投资)in early warning systems, structures for protection against predators and other measures to prevent human-tiger conflicts. When conflicts do occur, measures to reduce their impacts, like insurance projects, are important: Finally, the most important part of human-tiger coexistence(共存) is an fair and inclusive way to protection. Local communities should have a voice in developing and carrying out protection strategies.(首先，防止冲突的发生是至关重要的第一步。政府和保护组织可以投资于预警系统、防御捕食者的结构和其他预防人虎冲突的措施。当冲突确实发生时，采取措施减少其影响，如保险项目，是很重要的：最后，人虎共存最重要的部分是公平和包容的保护方式。当地社区应在制定和实施保护战略方面拥有发言权。)”以及上文可知，本文主要讲述了保护老虎的栖息地和生态系统服务的好处，以及保护老虎所带来的挑战。所以C项Challenges and Chances in Human-Tiger Coexistence.(人虎共存的挑战与机遇。)符合语境。故选C项。 D The practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past. With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphones, writing by hand has become something of a nostalgic (怀旧的) skill. However, while today’s educators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful — both in school and in life. Virginia Berninger, professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington, says it’s important to continue teaching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand. Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks — both on a computer and by hand. The study, published last year, found that when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate. In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student’s writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to how well they can write. “Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active, which helps us access our vocabulary, word meaning and concepts. It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas,” Berninger said. “Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe (转换) those words in the mind into written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen,” the study said. “Seeing the words in the “mind’s eye” helps children not only to turn their ideas into words,” says Berninger, “but also to find out spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct them over time.” “In our computer age, some people believe that we don’t have to teach spelling because we have spell checks,” she said. “But until a child has a functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they won’t have the knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer.” 12. What makes writing by hand a thing of the past? A. The importance of writing by hand. B. The lack of practice in handwriting. C. The use of new technologies like computers and smartphones. D. The belief that handwriting skills are unnecessary for success. 13. Which of the following best shows the role of spelling? A. Spelling improves one’s long-run memory of words. B. Spelling ability is closely connected to writing ability. C. Spelling benefits the translation from words into ideas. D. Spelling slows down finding right words to express ideas. 14. What does the underlined expression “mind’s eye” in Paragraph 5 mean? A. Wind. B. Spirit. C. Imagination. D. Picture. 15. What conclusion could be drawn from the passage? A. Handwriting still has a place in today’s classrooms. B. Spell checks can take the place of spelling teaching. C. Computers can help people with their choice of words. D. Functional spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了手写技能在现代教育中的地位，以及拼写能力对于写作技能的重要性。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“The practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past. With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphones, writing by hand has become something of a nostalgic skill.”（学生无休止地从黑板上抄写字母和句子的做法已经成为过去。随着计算机和智能手机等新技术的出现，手写已经成为一种怀旧的技能。）可知，新技术如计算机和智能手机的出现使得手写成为过去。故选C项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student’s writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to how well they can write.”（在最近的一项研究中，Berninger研究了拼写在学生写作技能中的作用，并发现孩子们的拼写能力与他们的写作水平密切相关。）可知，拼写能力与写作能力密切相关，这最好地体现了拼写的作用。故选B项。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段中“Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe (转换) those words in the mind into written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen.”（拼写有助于学生首先将想法转化为脑海中的单词，然后将脑海中的单词转录为纸上、键盘上或屏幕上的书面符号。）以及“‘Seeing the words in the “mind’s eye” helps children not only to turn their ideas into words, but also to find out spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct them over time.’”（“在‘心灵之眼’中看到单词不仅有助于孩子们将想法转化为单词，还有助于他们在写下单词时发现拼写错误，并随着时间的推移进行更正。”）可知，mind’s eye指的是孩子们在脑海中想象单词的过程，即想象力（Imagination）。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“However, while today’s educators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful — both in school and in life.”（然而，尽管今天的教育者在教学中使用了越来越多的技术，但许多人认为基本的手写技能对于学生在学校和生活中的成功仍然是必要的。）以及后文对手写技能和拼写能力的讨论，可知文章主要讨论了手写技能在现代教育中的地位，由此推知，手写技能在今天的课堂上仍然有一席之地。故选A项。 第二节(共5小题;每 小题2. 5分，满分 12. 5 分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 With the rise of language apps, learning a new language is perhaps more popular than ever. There is no doubt that language learning apps have benefits as a supplement (补充) to formal education. ___16___ Here are some underrated ways to learn a new language. One of the most common advice for language learners is to consume films and shows in the language they are learning. In fact, they don’t help a new learner to follow. ___17___ The cartoons are often made up of basic phrases and words that one would learn at a primary level. Plus, cartoons usually come with clearer and slower pronunciation, which will help learners adapt to understanding without subtitles. ___18___ There is another choice: listening to podcasts and songs in the language you are trying to master. Not only can you pick up idioms, but you can also explore various topics to enlarge your vocabulary and understand differences within various contexts. Being exposed to the rhythm of native speakers will also help your learning, and you can achieve all of this while developing a fondness for the culture. When practising speaking, one runs the risk of making mistakes or embarrassing oneself when attempting to practise in public or with a native speaker. So, instead, start small. Speak to your pet or an inanimate object around the house. ___19___ The goal is to get used to sounding the letters. producing the accent and getting the words out. Another creative method to put your writing skills to test is to keep a pen pal. Ideally, find someone who is not only fluent in the language you are learning, but who is also learning a language you are fluent in. Through the exchange of letters, you not only get to practise your writing skills but can also provide feedback to each other. ___20___ A. Tell them about your day or describe how you feel. B. If watching cartoons is not your cup of tea, fear not. C. Plus, everyone gets a friend through a foreign stamp. D. So can foreign speakers gain fluency within weeks or months? E. Understanding of the films and shows depends heavily on subtitles. F. Instead, a step down the ladder would be to watch children’s cartoons. G. But it is unrealistic to expect master y of a new tongue simply through their use. 【答案】16. G 17. F 18. B 19. A 20. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了学习一门新语言的方法。 【16题详解】 根据上文“There is no doubt that language learning apps have benefits as a supplement (补充) to formal education.”（毫无疑问，语言学习应用程序作为正规教育的补充是有好处的）以及下文“Here are some underrated ways to learn a new language.”（这里有一些被低估的学习一门新语言的方法。）可知，选项与上文为转折关系，且承接下文说明仅仅靠语言应用程序是不足够的。故G选项“但是，仅仅通过使用它们来掌握一门新语言是不现实的”切题。故选G项。 【17题详解】 根据上文“One of the most common advice for language learners is to consume films and shows in the language they are learning. In fact, they don’t help a new learner to follow.”（对于语言学习者来说，最常见的建议之一是观看他们正在学习的语言的电影和节目。事实上，它们并不能帮助初学习者跟上所学内容）以及下文“The cartoons are often made up of basic phrases and words that one would learn at a primary level. Plus, cartoons usually come with clearer and slower pronunciation, which will help learners adapt to understanding without subtitles.”（这些卡通片通常是由初级水平的基本短语和单词组成的。此外，动画片通常有更清晰、更慢的发音，这将有助于学习者适应没有字幕的理解。）可知，选项承接上文，在电影和电视节目帮助不了初学者的情况下，推荐一种更简单的看的方式——看卡通片；故F选项“相反，可以退一步看看儿童卡通片。”符合语境。故选F项。 【18题详解】 上一段中“The cartoons are often made up of basic phrases and words that one would learn at a primary level. Plus, cartoons usually come with clearer and slower pronunciation, which will help learners adapt to understanding without subtitles.”（这些漫画通常是由初级水平的基本短语和单词组成的。此外，动画片通常有更清晰、更慢的发音，这将有助于学习者适应没有字幕的理解。）推荐通过看动画片来学习语言；由下文“There is another choice: listening to podcasts and songs in the language you are trying to master.”（还有另一种选择:听你想要掌握的语言的播客和歌曲。）可知，本段介绍了除了另外一种选择：听也是一种提高语言的方法。故B选项“如果你不喜欢看动画片，不要害怕”承上承上启下，符合语境，选项中“watching cartoons”与上一段中“cartoons”相呼应。故选B项。 【19题详解】 上文“Speak to your pet or an inanimate object around the house.”（和你的宠物或房子周围的无生命的物体说话。）建议跟宠物或房子周围的无生命的物体说话；A选项“告诉他们你的一天或描述你的感受”承接上文，阐述可以说的内容，符合语境，选项中“them”指代上文中“pet or an inanimate object around the house”。故选A项。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Through the exchange of letters, you not only get to practise your writing skills but can also provide feedback to each other.”（通过交换信件，你不仅可以练习你的写作技巧，还可以相互提供反馈）可知，选项承接上文继续说明交换邮件的益处。故C选项“另外，每个人都可以通过外国邮票交到朋友”切题。故选C项。 第三部分 语言运用(共二节，满分 30 分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题 1分，满分 15 分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 During a recent long international trip, my youngest daughter got airsick (晕机) again.
