D 【导语】本文通过一个在线论坛展示了不同人在餐馆的各种体验。 【39题详解】 主旨大意题。根据论坛中Kerry、Andrew、Winnie和Natalie各个帖子讨论的内容，所有发言都围绕“特殊餐厅体验”展开，因此该论坛的主题是“我们的特殊餐厅体验”。故选C。 【40题详解】 细节理解题。根据Andrew的帖子中“I did not have a good dining experience today. ”可知，Andrew有一个不愉快的用餐经历。故选B。 【41题详解】 词义猜测题。根据Winnie的帖子中“they coughed without covering their mouths. Some of them put all their shopping bags on the chairs even when they saw someone waiting.”可知有些顾客做的是事情不恰当。故“inappropriate”表示“不恰当、错误”的意思。故选C。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据帖子内容，提到了“Talking while chewing”（Andrew的帖子），“Taking more seats than necessary”（Winnie的帖子）以及“Coughing without covering mouths”（Winnie的帖子）。没有提到“Chatting noisily with friends”，故选B。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据Natalie帖子中“It was so special!

The lunch set looked like a kid’s box lunch. ” 可知，这家餐厅的特色是午餐像孩子的盒饭一样，故选A。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。 Natalie的帖子主要描述了餐厅的装饰和食物设计，与其他帖子中强调的服务质量或顾客行为问题相比，显得关联度较低。故选D。 B. Choose the best answer and complete the passage(选择最恰当的选项完成短文) (12分) The world is getting smaller, at least when it comes to language. More and more people speak the three most common languages: English, Spanish, and Mandarin. ____45____, local languages are being forgotten. In many parts of the world, grandparents speak a language their grandchildren do not understand. As cultures adjust to these changes, and languages aren’t taught to children or spoken at home, these local languages are slowly disappearing. A language is said to be in trouble when less than 30 percent of children in the community speak it. It is considered a ____46____ language. If children no longer learn to use a language, it will have fewer and fewer speakers over time and, in the end, the language will be gone. ____47____ should we keep languages alive? Languages hold the key to understanding a culture’s beliefs and values. They show how a culture understands or explains the world. “You need to look at a variety of languages, because no one language gets it all,” said anthropologist (人类学家) Dr. Linda Cumberland who is working to ____48____ Assiniboine, a Native American language. According to Dr. Cumberland, a language in trouble needs not only a ____49____ but also people who understand and record its grammar. Most importantly, you need to listen to those who still speak the language. This can be very difficult, especially if there are very few speakers of the language left. For example, when researchers were working to save the language Ayange C yapaneco in Mexico, it was hard for them to record anything because the last two people on Earth who could speak the language ____50____ to speak to each other! 45. A. For example B. As a result C. By the way D. In addition 46. A. dying B. strange C. silent D. foreign 47. A. How B. When C. Why D. Where 48. A. learn B. find C. use D. save 49. A. library B. dictionary C. notebook D. telephone 50. A. forgot B. chose C. refused D. continued 【答案】45. B 46. A 47. C 48. D 49. B 50. C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了全球语言多样性的现状及其面临的挑战，特别是地方语言和濒危语言的消失问题，呼吁人们关注和保护语言多样性，以防止语言的消失和文化的丧失。 【45题详解】 句意：因此，地方语言正在被人们遗忘。 For example例如；As a result因此，结果是；By the way顺便说一下；In addition另外。根据上文“More and more people speak the three most common languages: English, Spanish, and Mandarin.”可知，越来越多的人说英语、西班牙语和普通话这三种最常见的语言，这种行为导致的结果是地方语言正在被遗忘。故选B。 【46题详解】 句意：它被视为一种濒危语言。 dying垂死的；strange奇怪的；silent沉默的；foreign外国的。根据上文“A language is said to be in trouble when less than 30 percent of children in the community speak it.”可知，当社区中少于30%的孩子说一种语言时，这种语言就处于困境中，所以此处是指这种语言即将消失。故选A。 【47题详解】 句意：为什么我们应该保持语言的活力呢？ How如何；When何时；Why为什么；Where哪里。根据下文“Languages hold the key to understanding a culture’s beliefs and values.”可知，语言对于理解文化的信仰和价值观至关重要，所以此处是询问保持语言活力的原因，应用why作特殊疑问词。故选C。 【48题详解】 句意：人类学家琳达·坎伯兰博士说：“你需要研究各种语言，因为没有一种语言能包罗万象。”她正在努力拯救美国土著语言阿西尼博因语。 learn学习；find找到；use使用；save拯救。根据上文语境和下文“researchers were working to save the language Ayange C yapaneco in Mexico”可知，上文提到保持语言活力的重要性，而下文提到研究人员正在努力拯救墨西哥的Ayange C yapaneco语言，所以此处是指人类学家正在拯救一种濒危语言。故选D。 【49题详解】 句意：据坎伯兰博士说，濒危语言不仅需要词典，还需要理解和记录其语法的人。 library图书馆；dictionary词典；notebook笔记本；telephone电话。根据常识可知，词典是记录语言词汇和语法的专业工具，是语言保护的重要资源或手段。故选B。 【50题详解】 句意：例如，当研究人员致力于拯救墨西哥的Ayange C yapaneco语言时，他们很难记录下任何东西，因为地球上最后两位会说这种语言的人拒绝相互交流！ forgot忘记；chose选择；refused拒绝；continued继续。根据“it was hard for them to record anything”可知，很难记录任何东西，所以此处是指最后两位会说这种语言的人拒绝相互交流。故选C。 C.

Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答问题) ①In the United States, 16, 18, and 21 are important ages in a person’s life. A person can do new things at each age to show that he or she is no longer a child. These are all part of the transition to adulthood. ②After turning 16 in the United States, a person can be employed, get a driver’s license, and leave home. Many high school students learn to drive and get part-time jobs soon after celebrating their 16th birthday. At 18, people in the United States can vote in government elections and join the military, but they can’t go into nightclubs or buy alcohol like beer or wine until they are 21. ③In many Latin American countries, a young woman’s 15th birthday is important. At this age, she is no longer considered to be a girl, but a woman. To mark this special day, families with 15-year-old daughters have a celebration called a quinceanera. The day begins with the young woman and her family going to church. Later, there is a party to which many guests are invited. ④In Japan, boys and girls are considered to be adults at the age of 20. At this age, they gain rights to vote and drink alcohol. The second Monday in January is a national holiday called Coming-of-Age Day. On this day, 20-year-olds celebrate by listening to speeches given by city and school leaders. After that, many celebrate with family and friends late into the night. ⑤In many countries, celebrations do not stop at adulthood. People like to celebrate what they consider to be important ages such as their 50th or 60th birthdays, or significant events such as the birth of their first child, or their retirement. 58.

Each can be used only once (将下列单词填入空格。每空格限填一词,每词只能填一次) A. suggest B. imagine C. meaningful D. thoughtful E. attention Meredith: I keep it real. Sure, sending an email is fast and convenient, but I think email makes communication less _16_ because people usually pay little attention to their emails. They give more _17_ to real letters.

My friends all moved away to different places after high school, and I don’t have time to sit down and write and post letters to them every week. Sending them emails is so much more convenient. With email, I can write to them whenever I want. Then, they can read my emails right away and send a _21_ just as fast. With emails, I can _22_ many people at the same time. When I want to say “hi!” to old friends, I just put in their email addresses, type up a note, and send it out—no paper, no stamps, no _23_ for the letters to travel over land and sea. Email helps people keep in touch, and, in the end, that’s what’s important, right? II.Complete the sentences with the given words in their proper forms(用括号中所给单词的适当形式完成下列句子。每空格限填一词) 24.

More and more people speak the three most common languages: English, Spanish, and Mandarin. _45_, local languages are being forgotten. In many parts of the world, grandparents speak a language their grandchildren do not understand. As cultures adjust to these changes, and languages aren’t taught to children or spoken at home, these local languages are slowly disappearing. A language is said to be in trouble when less than 30 percent of children in the community speak it. It is considered a _46_ language. If children no longer learn to use a language, it will have fewer and fewer speakers over time and, in the end, the language will be gone. _47_ should we keep languages alive? Languages hold the key to understanding a culture’s beliefs and values. They show how a culture understands or explains the world. “You need to look at a variety of languages, because no one language gets it all,” said anthropologist (人类学家) Dr. Linda Cumberland who is working to _48_ Assiniboine, a Native American language. According to Dr. Cumberland, a language in trouble needs not only a _49_ but also people who understand and record its grammar. Most importantly, you need to listen to those who still speak the language. This can be very difficult, especially if there are very few speakers of the language left. For example, when researchers were working to save the language Ayange C yapaneco in Mexico, it was hard for them to record anything because the last two people on Earth who could speak the language _50_ to speak to each other! 45. A. For example B. As a result C. By the way D. In addition 46. A. dying B. strange C. silent D. foreign 47. A. How B. When C. Why D. Where 48. A. learn B. find C. use D. save 49. A. library B. dictionary C. notebook D. telephone 50. A. forgot B. chose C. refused D. continued C.

A person can do new things at each age to show that he or she is no longer a child. These are all part of the transition to adulthood. ②After turning 16 in the United States, a person can be employed, get a driver’s license, and leave home. Many high school students learn to drive and get part-time jobs soon after celebrating their 16th birthday. At 18, people in the United States can vote in government elections and join the military, but they can’t go into nightclubs or buy alcohol like beer or wine until they are 21. ③In many Latin American countries, a young woman’s 15th birthday is important. At this age, she is no longer considered to be a girl, but a woman. To mark this special day, families with 15-year-old daughters have a celebration called a quinceanera. The day begins with the young woman and her family going to church. Later, there is a party to which many guests are invited. ④In Japan, boys and girls are considered to be adults at the age of 20. At this age, they gain rights to vote and drink alcohol. The second Monday in January is a national holiday called Coming-of-Age Day. On this day, 20-year-olds celebrate by listening to speeches given by city and school leaders. After that, many celebrate with family and friends late into the night. ⑤In many countries, celebrations do not stop at adulthood. People like to celebrate what they consider to be important ages such as their 50th or 60th birthdays, or significant events such as the birth of their first child, or their retirement. 58. Nineteen is an important age in a person’s life in the USA, isn’t it? _ 59. At what age can an American buy beer? _ 60. How do some Latin American countries celebrate a woman’s 15th birthday? _ 61.
